Any news about whether AD will play in Game 6?

Anthony Davis will play on Game 6.

Los Angeles Lakers superstar Anthony Davis (heel) will play in Game 6

He has an injury but the superstar said he can manage.

I think he has already discussed this to their team and already has preparations because for sure when their match the enemies will focus on the great players to keep them or if the worst is to hold them until they get injured like what happened to Anthony Davis.

He is already playing now, and had the first points for the Lakers.  Davis is 100% as what I can see, so let's see how this game goes, Lakers in 6 or there will be a game 7, regardless, what I can say I am expecting to be entertain tonight.

28-point lead for the Lakers. Wow. Seems like Lakers really want to end this game tonight and be this season's champion. I'd love to see another match on Game 7 but with that amount of lead, I won't put my hopes too high now.

And, we are seeing a real entertainment from the Lakers right now and the end of the second half the Miami Heat is trailing 28 points. That's an insane lead and it could really be a miracle if the Heat tries to reduce that gap and from what I can see the Lakers players are in the zone right now. Most of them are really contributing to this lead may it on offense or the defensive aspects. Woohhhhh!

Game 7? Miracle it is.

I bet on Heat this game and I think that worked out though I am also rooting for LA Lakers to win. Maybe because it is the team that's popular but because I have no choice since Miami Heat defeated Milwaukee Bucks and I just wanted for Lakers to beat Miami.

Nice! I don’t think anyone thought that Miami would win after Game 4. What odds did you get on your bet?

Sorry but I am not betting on sites, I am just betting with my friend, we bet on each other. If he picks something that I think would win I do some +2 or +3 on the scores. This time there are no additions since he just bluntly told me that Lakers would win. Bit scared at first since they are wearing the Mamba uniform but they still won.

We also did the same here, but just straight up bets, with no plus or minus. Just a friendly bet though, two sets of office mates setup. Just $10 each, unfortunately, I did choose the Lakers side the last time and lost the bet. Yes, that's the main reason why I bet on Lakers because that Mamba jersey hasn't lost when Lakers wore them, unfortunately, Heat won.

And now I'm on the Miami side, Lol, I'm just thinking that they have all the momentum going on Game 6, just my opinion. And if you look at sport bookies the ML is also attractive, so I'm still thinking of I'm going to bet or not.

Are there any pick’em type pools on BTCtalk? If not, we should set one up for next season or NFL playoffs perhaps. Does anyone know if any pick'em pools exist currently?

I haven't seen any prediction pools for the NBA except for a few prediction contest on the games and rounds sub.

Your second question is a bit off topic but here are the existing pool thread for each league.

UEFA Champions League Pool

AD played well defensively, he really shows how versatile he is playing 5 with he's great teammates, Lakers overpower the heat in the first half making it very tough for the Miami to comeback because there's no enough time.

Aside from Bam everyone really being defended well by the Lakers, Butler got a quite final game he's not being felt that much, not getting the ball aggressively.

Lakers basketball clinic as how the announcer states that words works really well stopping every
attempts of Miami. Congrats Lakers fans time to  celebrate now!

My bet was on Miami even though Lakers was the dominant team from the start of the finals. But I'm not sad they didn't win. I'm still proud of them and made the finals game reach Game 6. All of them did a great job.

Congratulations still to Miami.
And of course, to this season's champion, Lakers! Cheers to that!

[boyptc]

Yeah.

They made the entire finals to show an unexpected outcome. Great players and would love to see them again playing in the next season's final if there will be no changes with their roster. I think offers will come in to their players.

Congratulations to Lakers. Now, everyone will start to forget about Morris' airball. 

[jademaxsuy]

So, Miami just win in Game 3 and Game 5 with luck? I do not think so when they played this games I had observed that lakers defense is not that high or good during this time and they just let Butler score. This made Butler good to Miami fans but the actual plays of Lakers had made this clear that Lakers has a very good players and are way too strong compared to Miami.

Well, not bad for coach spoelstra in leading Miami to finals. This is a great achievement already having new players that are competetive. Miami team could go far after this season. Well hopefully their next plays will make more effective in the basket and also to improve their 3 point shooting game.

Congratulations to LA Lakers for winning the Finals!

That is just amazing and a bit of expected, we all know that the Lakers would close the series. I also want to congratulate Miami Heat, I feel down about Butler though. He did so well in the previous matches then this game, Lakers showed why they are said to be the most defensive team in the league breaking another history as the 2nd most deficit point in the halftime.

You are the one speculating that they've won with luck. As I have said, they showed an unexpected outcome which most fans have been expecting.

They really played well.

Coach Erik is truly a finals coach caliber. Both teams should be praised.

Still have respect for Miami and they did their best on at least bringing the series to game 6 on where everybody do speculate that this would only finish on game 4 or on a sweep.
You can really see on how Lakers do dominate the first quarter and able to held up until the last quarter.They do even had the lead of staggering 30+ but still Miami do able to
lessen the lead but not really enough.Im wondering on where those people do discriminate Danny Green? He made 11 points this time. lol

[casperBGD]

Lebron made it all-in in this game and it was enough to beat Miami, congrats to both teams, could not say that i did not expected more from Miami in this match, but looking at their season, they were really great and above expectation
nevertheless, Lakers win was widely expected, it was a bit of doubt after Davis injury in fifth match, but obviously all that was not that bad, and he recovered quickly to play a good game last night

now we are in the line for next season, which should start on Christmas, if everything stays as it is

More than enough, Lebron gave everything he has, he is so aggressive from the start and until he sits down.

A superb performance of Lebron James, got a triple double and deserve to be name as the NBA Finals MVP, Kodus also to Davis and Rondo for their all around performance, Lakers came to end the series and does not give the heat a chance to breath, the first half was really huge, Heat did not recover anymore.

Lebron was unstoppable in this series, his teammates struggled sometimes but we never saw he had some struggle. The journey of the Lakers this season was very easy, now that Davis had already achieved his first championship, I hope he will think of transferring to other team and be a main man not only living in the shadow of Lebron James.

If this rumor is still true.

Still some months to look forward, lets allowed the players and teams to enjoy. Not just Lebron but the whole Lakers really show up and produce whatever help that they can bring to the team.

This win is already been expected as Lakers are very dominant just nice to see that Miami really gives them a good  series not to allow that they'll be winning the finals without a sweat. Great job Miami! and grats to Lakers nation.

Then it's good!

That was an old article, Dated January 2020 and that was right before the Bubble or before the pandemic happened, so after this Championship which you can see he was very happy, that rumor might not be close to reality anymore as we saw how dominant they are playing together and probably Lebron will just retire in the Lakers uniform and Davis will takeover as the leader of the team.
