2024 NBA Season

[blockman]

Heat is very lucky that they manage to to stop the momentum of Boston on the last game.

I agree, they were sort of lucky during that time but they also have shown their skills. Martin was on fire and while everyone is busy thinking of how they'll have their defense against the Nuggets. I think that we should see a show match of outside shots because both teams are good on it.
Just several hours away from the very first match of the NBA finals and I'm sure that the viewership of this match will be greater than the rival of the unfinished business that we've seen against Heat and Boston.

We don't call that luck; the Miami Heat came prepared and they dominated the home team to claim the spot in the NBA Finals. If we want to talk about luck, I think it's the Boston Celtics who got the last shot in game 6 that kept them alive. That last shot was quite controversial, but the Heat still continued to play, using their last chance in game 7.

I think it did good for them for Herro to be out, (not saying that we've wished he is injured), but his team has step up without him. Even Duncan Robinson has been inserted in the roster again. Duncan was the first option tough before Herro became one of their deadliest shooters. But the good thing is that Duncan embraces his role again and I think he is vital to their winning and going to the finals. So we will see how the first game will be, others is beating that the Nuggets will take game one and I'm with them.

Yeah, and it has given a chance for Caleb Martin and Gabe Vincent to be in the spotlight and see how effective they are against any team, number 1 or number 2 in the rankings, it doesn't matter, they can definitely win games. But, it's different when you have an option for an offensive attack and Tyler Herro is that man, he can shoot everywhere too and his defense is not to be underestimated.
With their upcoming battle against the Denver Nuggets, they need to space the floor more and Herro will be that key to spread it. Paired with Duncan Robinson they will be a threat to outside shots so Bam Adebayo and Butler can move freely if they want to attack the paint.

Nuggets on Game 1 for me too. Although I doubt the high spreads if it can be covered.

[Ziskinberg]

Nuggets on Game 1 for me too. Although I doubt the high spreads if it can be covered.

If you believe that they will win in game 1, trust them to cover the spread. Currently, the Moneyline (ML) odds for the Nuggets are only 1.28, so I think that is too low for gambling unless you have great faith in them and would like to bet a decent amount. However, if you're not betting a lot of money, I think -10 with odds of 2.03 would be fine. Sometimes we have doubts about whether the spread will be covered, but often, when we have doubts, it's the easiest bet that we should take.

In the end, you just have to be confident and trust your analysis.

If you're having a hard time deciding which team to bet on, then I think focusing on the total score would be a good option. Typically, in game 1, the intensity is high and teams are fresh, resulting in a more defensive game. If that scenario unfolds, then I believe betting on the under would be the right choice. Currently, the total is set at 219, which seems high for a defensive game.

I think it's sort of luck, from 0-3 to 3-3 with what Boston did to them and then they're able to win the last game against them. I do agree to you what's luck with Boston when White prolonged the series and took their win.

That last shot was quite controversial, but the Heat still continued to play, using their last chance in game 7.

It wasn't as controversial as is because the Heat just accepted it and there's no need for much thought about it. It's clear that was a shot that's got in. Well, it's interesting that there could be plays like this on this upcoming finals and I guess that it will be hyper than the last matches.

[Russlenat]

Well, it's interesting that there could be plays like this on this upcoming finals and I guess that it will be hyper than the last matches.

Maybe referees will be more careful by ensuring that the clock adjustment they make is correct. We don't want a repeat of what happened in Game 6 of the ECF, where fans complained because the clock should have been at 2.8 seconds, but it was adjusted to 3 seconds. Even milliseconds count, so everything should be taken care of well, even the smallest things, as they could cost a game.

For sure that issue will not happen again as we all know that this upcoming game will be the the NBA finals 2023 which is they need to facilitate this finals cause there are many gamblers and fans will watch this game.  So once they will trick the clock even a seconds or milliseconds they will got many bad feedback from the fans but so sad so good and For sure this game is a clean and very interesting game as we all know how nuggets and Miami play in the court .

I do have confidence that we will have a clean series between Heat and Nuggets and I also have confidence that all the referees will do their job properly in order to avoid extra conversations after the game or heat arguments between teams.

Tonight , we do have the first game and Heat have won first game in all their series and I'm thinking they will do the same today.

Yes, it was but the Heat was not really bothered by what happened and that just made the picture clearer as ever because the Miami Heat was just so confident about their chances to win the next game, which is the Game 7, even if they knew that they will be playing in a hostile ground as the game is scheduled to be in Celtic's home. Because if that was not the case, then I guess we would have seen the Heat appealing about what happened.

Money line is not that sweet because the Denver Nuggets now are listed as a very heavy favorite because of what seed they've finished the regular season plus they have pulled a stunt that very few can make and that was sweeping a team in a conference finals. So, if you're looking a heavy payout, handicap will be needed but giving a +10 advantage on the Heat might be a bad choice. Nobody can guarantee that of course, so who knows what will happen on their first game.

The Denver Nuggets should consider what happened last time when the Miami Heat beat the Dallas Mavericks with the help of the referee they cannot afford that to happen now that they finally managed to get to the NBA finals and no other team like them has been struggling in the NBA playoffs since then, they know that they cannot give the games easily and also not to fall into some kinds of misunderstanding in the middle of this series. They really need to win now or never because this is the only chance they have seriously.

It's a matter of how you trust your team. If you are a Nuggets fan and you want decent odd, then go for the handicap.

While if you are a Heat fan taking that handicap or the ML, both are sweet though ML if by chance they again upset the home team
for sure, that will really take a trust for them taking the ML.

Just my opinion, and for sure, there are gamblers who are willing to take that, since one shot may bring them very
decent benefits if luck permits.

Yes, if you are a Denver Nuggets fans, you should look for the handicap bet to be able as it is more attractive than an obvious ML. But then again, it could be a trap as well as we all know that the Heat has been living under as the underdog throughout the playoff series and yet they manage to survived.

So it's going to be very tricky to bet on the first game. Majority knows that the Nuggets might win, but can they cover the initial handicap? Or should it be better to do live betting to see how the game progresses first.

This could be one option, but I seldom used this kind of betting though, I'm mostly on the handicap bet, but who knows, maybe I can change strategy because of the way this series goes, very unpredictable. You said defensive games but that's why East is all about. You have to factor that this is the finals already, and with that said, the West, in this case the Denver Nuggets, might not be a defensive team as compare to any east time as they love to run. And specially they have Jokic who can post triple double and who has the most in a playoff history. So if he scores 10 or more assists, then that is automatic 20 or more points for his team already.

Just how the move forward about that lost, they accepted it and do much better in game 7, They are confident that even they missed the
chance to celebrate at home, they can still win the ECF title.

And that's how we witness it. They dominated game 7 and beat the home team with a huge deficit, unlike last year when Boston beat them, which
almost a win if that last shot from Butler went in.

Everything now is part of the past. They will face the Nuggets now in the finals, let see if how they will try winning the title.

Ya, this is a case where it seems pretty clear that Denver is going to take game 1.  They're more well rested, Jimmy Buckets has an ankle injury, Denver is younger, Denver is playing at home in the mile high city, Denver matches up well against Butler and Bam, Denver had a better season, Denver has been playing together longer as a team, etc...

That leaves pretty bum odds to bet against.  I'd almost say it's worth taking the Heat to win with the given odds, but I honestly don't think they have much of a chance.  Jokic will shut down Bam, MPJ & BGordon will shut down Butler, and Murray will absolutely go off against Miami's guards.  I see Denver winning this series in 5.

I don't even think about the possibility of bad refereeing. There's a lot of talk about it during this playoffs and hopefully, those were enough and the officials will step up their job. Maybe some people are concerned because Denver is a small market to the likes of the Lakers, Warriors, and Celtics. Between these 2 finalists, Miami is the richer city but their team is a huge underdog so I am expecting none or at least less drama in terms of biased officiating.

I had a bet on Denver ML in this game 1. They are aware of Miami's ability to win under pressure so they are ready and will not feel overconfident. The offense of Denver will be too much as they will try to overwhelm the limited offense of Miami.

If I'm not mistaken, Denver got a 5-0 standing versus the Heat during the regular season. I know it is a different case this time because we are already in the Finals but I sure do know that during those match-up, the Nuggets certainly learned a thing or two about how the Heat moves and their priorities as well. And just like the Nuggets, the Heat learned something during those said match-ups as well but when it comes to advantage, regarding what I've said, the Nuggets got the upper hand.

You've got a point, mate, it does seem like they're holding the aces. But remember how the Heat has a history of spitting in the face of the bookies, eh? It's a given, Denver's crew is green, revved up, and enjoying home comfort. But don't the toughest conditions mold the strongest champions?

Remember those five head-to-heads in the regular season? Denver clinched it, sure, but doesn't every setback offer a lesson? Maybe the Heat has been sitting back, quietly studying every play Denver has made. They've had a close encounter with the Nuggets' game plan, they've felt their force, and they're hungry to turn the tables. Picture it, Butler and Bam stepping up, rocking Denver on their own stage! Ah, the theatrics! The mystery! Isn't that the essence of this game's allure?
