NBA 2023-2024 betting

As expected, the Celtics will dominate the game after they've been blown out the last game. It was really evident when almost all of them will start to play seriously and make use of their sizes to have an advantage. Williams III was having a blast blocking the shots from the Warriors, he even got 4 blocks while Jaylen Brown was having his best game in the Finals.

They made a huge bounce back, although the Warriors remained strong in the 3rd quarter and were able to make the game close the Celtics again took over the 4th quarter. I am concerned about Curry's ankle, he was hurt when he dived for the ball, hopefully, he is fine as the team needs him in game 4 to even the series.

I thought the Celtics have already made themselves clear that they are more dominant in the paint and let Tatum, Smart and Brown do the works outside because they already have Williams and Horford in the center but they didn't. The Warriors have successfully bounced back after that huge loss they got the other day, they also saw an opportunity and they grabbed it. Fortunately, Curry isn't that much injured from the Game 3 because we can't see any issues in the game earlier and he even made 43 points.

Celtics made a big mistake, and that is allowing the Warriors to win on the road. things will be tough for the Celtics in game 5 as for sure Warriors will be shooting better at home and they have already made adjustments to beat the size advantage of the Celtics. With Curry's performance in game 5, that only will make him very confident to finally lead in the series and I believe after game 5, Warriors will be up 3-2 already.

They can't control it. Look how Steph is being guarded by almost all the defensive players of Boston

but even he's been tack he still brings that explosive performance, lots of push and uncalled fouls but the focus is to win
really matters to him. Even he's frustrated he didn't stop and continue to showcase his shooting skills, great to see his teammates
not just watch him but also to help him both in defense and offense to give some breathing to him.

The last three-point he made was a double team. It's the traditional play between Draymond and Steph where the passer will just give him a bit of space to shoot the ball using a mild screen and again it worked perfectly as long as Steph can find his rhythm early in the game.
The issue that I can only see is who will be the one defending Steph if the Celtics' defensive player of the year Marcus Smart was switched using a screen. I don't see Derrick White being able to stop him for many attempts during Game 4.
The other issue, if it's Horford in front of him, he doesn't/forget to go near Curry after the switch. That's terrible defense.

[vennali]

Unbelievable that the Celtics couldnt even score a basket in the last 4 mins and couldnt get many stops either, to stop the flow and gain back the momentum. Incredible performance from the Warriors to have made the comeback away from home. Now the series is tied 2-2 and a lot of things to ponder for the next couple of days for the Celtics. They have to regain their confidence and get the offense flowing against the dynamic defense set up of the Warriors.

Yeah, as long as those attempts went in, the chance of winning the game is really high,

The adjustments Warriors have made is something that I think Kerr really surprise the Celtics, changing your players for
both offense and defense for your opponents to collapse. That's something that not so many coaches have from this
league. They are just letting the players play in the last few minutes and see what will be the outcome.

[YuginKadoya]

And this is what the Warriors is made of, have a championship DNA, knows how to rise. Curry with a huge 43 points, and then Klay and Poole and Wiggins coming to life in the 4th quarter. Note that the Celtics take a 5 point lead with just 5-6 minutes left and the crowd goes crazy. But they made their own run, hitting 3's to silent the crowd. And then forcing Boston to an outside side wherein they missed 2 crucial shots. It was only Horford who breaks the run with the 3 in the corner, with 1:34 if I'm not mistaken but the Warriors had the confidence already. Now they will gain the upper hand in Chase Center next game. And congrats to those who bet on the ML or handicap for the Warriors.

This goes to show that the Warriors can really bounce back in most crucial moments, and Curry is opening up possibilities, that Basketball is not only for taller guys, he has to change the old thinking that if you have the height you can make it to NBA or a team that is well-known, but this is also pure hard work and talent, well in my opinion game 4 is more on a one-man show, yes surely Klay Thompson, and Jordan Poole, all did their part but not enough, to what Curry has accomplished, and this also goes to show how great the Golden State Warriors defense has, now looking forward in Game 5 if the Warriors could win this game 6 will be the last,

-snip-

I don't know his average in the NBA Finals, but I think it's 30+ points, having that kind of average, it's very obvious that the defense of the Celtics is not good enough to limit his output. Wow, his 3-point shooting was really fun to watch, he wasn't hesitating and he had a great shooting night.

No one can do it but Stephen Curry only, that is why he is the best shooter, that 30+ points record I think he reaches the record of Kobe Bryant, and they are on the same score, which is really a new feat for him, not to mention I am a fan because of just watching him with that quick release shot, and the confidence on the court was really amazing to watch,

This goes to show, that the Golden State Warriors also have a tremendous defense, consisting of Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins, Kevon Looney, Gary Payton II, and James Wiseman that couldn't play this season, and that confidence of Curry in creating a play, ball handling, and versatility in not hesitating at all I think that is what makes him special his presence was felt by the other Warriors and that is surely a great thing for them if they really want to win the Finals,

There are times that luck is not in our side. And that's what happened to the Celtics. The Warriors did some incredible defense but it was also with luck that prevented Celtics from scoring in about 3 to 4 minutes. The Celtics attempting many three point shots too, maybe they should tried driving the ball because they are bigger and more athletic.

Clearly as we approach to game 5 the Warriors are already in momentum. Celtics will have to put more defense especially to Stephen Curry because he was doing very well in this series.

Warriors cannot rely on luck alone, it was the Celtics who are the most consistent team so far, and tough they are now the underdog, it doesn't matter because there's still good value betting on them to win the series. Curry was just outstanding, if he can carry that momentum, then Boston might be in trouble.

They are the favorite to win, they are suppose to be the dominant team, but it seemed like Celtics are still underrated despite beating the Warriors in the previous 2 games with a decent margin.  I don't know if Celtics will be able to bounce back in game 5, but I feel the Warriors will use their home court advatange to gain a lead in the series.

They need to control the game like what they did in game 2. Overall, I still think that the Warriors are good, especially playing at home, so I think they will win but I would not be surprised if Celtics will steal another game on the road. Honestly, I'm surprised that Warriors outrebounded the Celtics when the Celtics have the size advantage, maybe they don't play hard enough like they did in game 3.

[Ziskinberg]

Speaking of game 5.

How would this game go? last game it went under, and this is a very important game, so I think the defense is still present here.

The current total is 212, shall I go under here?
Also, on the point spread, I'm taking the Warriors without hesitation, forget all the fix game, Warriors at home and needed to win so they'll likely cover the spread if they win the game.

A wrong approach to the unlucky 3-pointers that the Boston Celtics have taken, and you are right they should have force the ball inside if they are unlucky with their 3-pointers, but the defense of the Warriors is also remarkable and I think they surely assume that and they also need to keep the pace on the leading score of the Warriors because of Stephen Curry's deep threes, and when Curry is on the momentum it will surely continue until the game ends,

But I think the next game he surely be needing a lot of help from the other Warriors,

Warriors cannot rely on luck alone, it was the Celtics who are the most consistent team so far, and tough they are now the underdog, it doesn't matter because there's still good value betting on them to win the series. Curry was just outstanding, if he can carry that momentum, then Boston might be in trouble.

For the other Warrior players, but for Stephen Curry, I really think he has truly shown that he is consistent throughout the start, but regarding the Boston Celtics they still have a chance here, and I think if the Boston Celtics win again then the Warriors will be having a hard time to keep up, but apparently the Warriors is known for making a comeback on a 3 lead game, but if the Warriors really have won this then goodbye to Boston Celtics,

They need to control the game like what they did in game 2. Overall, I still think that the Warriors are good, especially playing at home, so I think they will win but I would not be surprised if Celtics will steal another game on the road. Honestly, I'm surprised that Warriors outrebounded the Celtics when the Celtics have the size advantage, maybe they don't play hard enough like they did in game 3.

No one is so certain if what will happen, but the Warriors will surely do what they do best, and the Celtics will need a better plan in defending Stephen Curry, just to slow him down is really good enough but the way Stephen Curry plays and if he heats up there is no one that can stop him when he is with total confidence while playing,

Forget about the fix, the Dub nation will have a big impact on how the Warriors will play this game, not good with over/under but

likewise defense will continue to be tougher between these two teams, key scorers will be guarded by key defenders and knowing the

capabilities on both sides. They always have the right man to fill the space, both teams will be tested one more time, the outcome will depend

from how these two teams will play against each other, the hungrier team will win!

My pick for tonight.

Boston Celtics(-3,5) vs Golden State Warriors = Boston Win / 1,85 odds

I think Boston Celtics will win tonight. They have the advantage now because they have the support of the fans and the score could be 3-1 in the series.
if they win, they will most likely become champions.

I lost my bet
Stephen Curry played very well in the last game. He had a huge impact on the team's win. 43 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists.
Unfortunately, Boston could not do anything about this situation.
If boston had won, I would have said champion, but now Golden State is closer to the championship.

No worries, you will have your chance to win on the next game and personally I will go 2 bets on Celtic : Boston -4.5 points as it's a high risk high reward odd and the 2nd one is kinda crazy but I will go with GSW 1st half and Boston winning the game. I do want to think that we will have a best of 7 series...<3.

[Baofeng]

I already bet in this game 5 as early as yesterday, hehehe -3.5. It's their home although the Celtics took game 1, GSW was able to bounce back in game 2 and won double digits. So I would not be surprised if another double digit win by the Warriors this game. And I'm expecting that someone like Klay Thompson or Jordan Poole will help a lot of the offensive load and take the burden from Curry's shoulder. I might put a players pop for Klay to score more.

I'm not worried, I think I will win in the next match (I hope).
I just trusted Boston Celtics a lot, but they did not win.
I will check the odds tomorrow night and share my bet here.
First quarter and first half odds look good now for GSW.

I am now at 1 win and 2 losses for over and under bets.   It's really unpredictable every game so, like Game 3, I may just pass on betting there.
About the spreads, yes they may cover it because we haven't seen a game that ended with a super close match like a 1-3 point difference. Most of their games are won by 10+ points of a lead. The only question is if the Celtics will steal another win on the road or if the Warriors will defend their home and make their fans satisfied and feel no doubts that they can win a championship.
Good luck with your decision.

Yeah, same here, the Over/Under is a hit or miss as it is really hard to see where the score is going to go. I mean there are quarter that they are both going to just score less than 25 points. And then in the 3rd or 4th suddenly one of them will explode for 39 points ++.

So for me it's better to just bet on the handicap or the ML. As you have said, most of the opening lines are -/+3.5 and teams are winning by double digits. So it's a sure win if you prediction got it right.

If you will bet on the ML, you will not get a good return, at least with -3.5, most bookies will give you over 90% in return of your winning and that's good enough considering Warriors are good at home and they have the momentum in this game.
