^^ Right, Lakers beat the Memphis. I thought that Davis might not come back in this game because of his shoulder. But he did, and on the other it was Morant who got injured himself when he try to go hard on the rim and Davis met him on top. And after that, it was all Lakers, Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura came in clutch and then Lebron shooting outside with 3's. It was a good win for the Lakers and it's too bad that I lost my bet on Memphis.

I wasn't able to watch the other games, but I see the Westbrook put that defensive gem against Booker to give the Clippers their first win in their playoff against the Phoenix Suns. The Heat too upset the top seed Bucks in their own series as Giannis wasn't able to play with a back contusion. The good news is that his X-ray comes back clean. So most likely he will be back in game 2.

This is the price that Ja pay for dunking in the face of 6’10 footer. He should stop doing that no matter how high he can jump since his body is very weak to absorb the fall impact. I stop watching the game after the dunk because I already knew that Lakers is already in control of the game. What an upset but I’m sure that many bet on Lakers in this match.

There’s a lot of upset game on this game too. I think many parlay got broken with the Bucks and Suns loss today because they are the team that seems have a high chance of winning base on stats and roster.  

If I'm not mistaken, there are 3x that he did try to attempt to score over the outstretch arms of Davis, the first one is clear hang up, but it was a missed, the 2nd one he managed to score, but the 3rd one, yeah, one he goes down in a awkward position and possible that he got hurt his risk.

And then Hilbilly Kobe takes over the game from Rui and Lebron James as he scored the last 11 or 14 points for the Lakers.

Lebron is all praises to Reaves after the game. Love the competition between this two games. Memphis still a slight favorite in game 2.

I wasn't able to watch the other games, but I see the Westbrook put that defensive gem against Booker to give the Clippers their first win in their playoff against the Phoenix Suns.

Russell Westbrook despite having a poor shooting last night with only 9 points (15.8% FG), he made himself useful in defense and tracked down Kevin Durant and Booker which made their night not that productive contrary to the expectation that Booker and Durant will lead the team's offense and bring the team a first win. Westbrook could've been in a tough situation again but he's just lucky because he managed to stop Booker in that lay-up and shoot the much needed 2 points in free throw.

About Paul George, he's been reported that he will likely miss the whole 1st round series against the Suns. The Clippers need him because Westbrook is still not that reliable in helping Kawhi, his presence will be a big help, but luck is not on their side this time.

Yes, it's funny too that Dillon Brooks became silent after what happened to Ja Morant because before that happened, he was really energetic and tried to mess the opposite team even if his presence in that game isn't having any bad effect towards the Lakers. But even before Ja Morant fell badly, the Lakers are still in control and didn't gave the home team an easy way where the gap will balloon in their favor.

I believed so too that the bettors favored the Lakers in that game but when it comes to the Heat vs Bucks match-up, many parlays got wasted plus there's the Clippers who upset the Suns on their 1st game. I think nobody saw that coming


We only have 2 games tomorrow right? I might sit on the Warriors vs Kings because I'm not really sure whom to bet because there's a chance that the defending champs will bounce back even if it's still a road game for them.

For now, Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers -9.5 : Both teams are healthy and none were reported questionable/probable/injured.

[jaberwock]

I think majority of us lay down on the Bucks winning against the Heat on game 1, in the regular season, even without Giannis, they found a way to win. But this is playoff series so it's going to be very different, I expect more from Holiday though, but he was really guarded very well in this game.

And the Clippers on cloud 9 after winning game 1 and Westbrook taking the highlight with his good defense on Booker.

So for sure many bettors (including myself), lost on this 2 games.

Honestly when you do not have Giannis for too long, and even when you have him he is hurt? That is a bit of normal not to really have him play like he normally would and the Bucks lost as expected because of that. When you plan the strategy around someone and he goes out, it's different from knowing he will not play.

When they didn't had Giannis, they knew they didn't have him and played accordingly, when they had him and he played hurt for a while and left? That's not something they were ready for. Herro is out for sure, Giannis may come back, it looked like he would not be injured for a long time but we all know Herro is out for  good, that's a damn shame but it is what it is. I hope that they both get a very healthy return eventually.

[MK-74]

My pick for tonight.

Philadelphia 76ers (-3.5) vs Brooklyn Nets = First Quarter Win 1,86 Odds.

Sacramento Kings vs Golden State Warriors (-2.5) = Golden State Warriors  Win 1,86 Odds.

My last bet lost but, I hope my picks for tonight will win.
Good luck guys.

∆ P.J. Tucker 1+ 3pt / P.J. Tucker 1+ steal / J. Harden 8+ assists / T. Harris 10+ points @4.10 ∆   X

The Nets decided to double-team Embiid for the majority of gm1 which resulted in numerous open looks for Harris and Tucker on the perimeter. In most games, PJ doesn't even get a single shot off, but hey, if they leave him open like that, he'll take it (and make it). PJ also had 5 steals, and with Nets turnovers all over the place, i'm confident he'll get at least one in gm2. Harris did not only benefit from the Embiid double-teams, but the Nets had Dinwiddie (their worst defender) on him on multiple occasions, creating a mismatch that Harris exploited. I'm hoping Harden can get to 8 assists, he's hit it 8/L10, Nets very average on defense.

[YuginKadoya]

WOW! The play-offs game is really incredible the team once you think will lose will surely gain an immense desire to win they will win against a big-shot team that was a great match even though I lost the two games I really enjoyed watching it because you will never know the outcome, but this is the 1st game only so there is no biggie for sure the other team will eventually get past this and make an extreme come back but lets see,

Milwaukee Bucks VS Miami Heat SCORE 117 - 130 - LOST

Phoenix Suns VS Los Angeles Clippers SCORE 110 - 115 - LOST

Denver Nuggets VS Minnesota Timberwolves SCORE 109 - 80 - WIN

Now my pick for upcoming games today, and it is game 2 for these teams,

Philadelphia 76ers VS Brooklyn Nets

The stake odds for this game are 1.19 for the 76ers and 4.90 for the Nets, Right now both teams don't have any injuries, now I really don't expect the Nets to win this actually I think they will taste being swept again last season by the Boston Celtics and this time by the 76ers, I may be wrong but maybe the Nets will win 1 but I really doubt it,

Sacramento Kings VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 2.16 for the Kings and 1.73 for the Warriors, right now Matthew Dellavedova can not play for this game against the Warriors, while Andre Iguodala can not play for the Warriors, Ty Jerome, and Jordan Poole are doubtful if they can play well even though Poole can not play in this game I really think they can still win here because they got a full Main team right now,

[danherbias07]

∆ P.J. Tucker 1+ 3pt / P.J. Tucker 1+ steal / J. Harden 8+ assists / T. Harris 10+ points @4.10 ∆

I like these props. I will be copying it.  

I am also going to take the Over 210.5 76ers vs Nets.
Philadelphia 76ers - Brooklyn Nets - Philadelphia 76ers (-10.5) - I believe this series is either going for a sweep in the 76ers' favor or it will end at Game 5 with the Nets just winning one at their home. (without injuries) Joel Embiid is just too much to handle. Claxton tried but he badly need some help from his team mates and while doing a double team they must be fast at recovery when the ball rotates.

Sacramento Kings - Golden State Warriors - Golden State Warriors (-3.5) The defending champion are still the favorites despite what the Sacramento Kings showed in Game 1 on their home. Not a strong win but it is still a win with Fox having may one of the best nights of his career.
The Warriors, on the other hand, will try forcing it this time to steal a win at Sacramento and it will help boost them up when they come back to San Francisco.

I would love to see Wiggins doing some greater damage. Over 23.5 PRA for Wigs @2.22.

[jakelyson]

Philadelphia 76ers vs Brooklyn Nets +11.5
The Brooklyn Nets will take on the Philadelphia 76ers in their Game 2 tonight at Wells Fargo Center. 3 out of 5 meetings of these two teams, the game was decided within 9 points. +11.5 is a safe bet for Brooklyn Nets unless the 76ers makes 20 or more 3 pointers.
Net key injuries: Ben Simmons (back) out

Sacramento Kings vs Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors will take on the Sacramento Kings in their Game 2 tonight at Golden 1 Center.
Warriors key injuries: Andre Iguodala (wrist) out, Jordan Poole (ankle) questionable, Ryan Rollins (foot) out
Kings key injuries: Matthew Dellavedova (finger) out

Net key injuries: Ben Simmons (back) out

Great pick so far. I would say there's a good chance that the spread will be covered as the game is currently close. In fact, the Nets were leading after the first half, but the 76ers came back in the 3rd quarter. However, it's still too early to tell. I like the adjustments the Nets have made so far. It looks like we will not see them get blown out twice.

Sacramento Kings vs Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors will take on the Sacramento Kings in their Game 2 tonight at Golden 1 Center.
Warriors key injuries: Andre Iguodala (wrist) out, Jordan Poole (ankle) questionable, Ryan Rollins (foot) out
Kings key injuries: Matthew Dellavedova (finger) out

I hope Jordan Poole will play, but regardless, I think the Warriors' roster is still capable of winning, so I like the Warriors to win.

[Questat]

I hope Jordan Poole will play, but regardless, I think the Warriors' roster is still capable of winning, so I like the Warriors to win.

He did play, and what's good now is that the Kings' 3-point shooting is not going in. The Warriors are leading early, but we cannot tell until the game is over. So far, it's a very entertaining game, and the defense was really evident. The crowd is loving it since the Kings haven't been in the playoffs for a while.

[Sanitough]

The game is intense, with the Warriors slowly coming back, but the Kings also had their own moments. The first half is over, and the Kings have a 6-point lead. The score now is 58-52. For those who like to bet on the Warriors, they are now at 2.20 ML, and we have 2.01 odds for the 3rd quarter if they win by 3+ points.

It's a very interesting game, and the Kings are the real deal. I am surprised that they didn't easily give up, but the Warriors need to win this game to even the series.

Anyways, good luck to both teams, and enjoy the game

Too bad to have lost your by the tiniest margin on Brooklyn Nets against 76ers, The Nets really needs to start finding some answers else this could be another for sweep against them this season, having suffered the same fate from the Boston Celtics' hands last season.

Sacramento Kings are actually having a good game against warriors tonight again, Kings already up by 8 half way into the 3rd quarter and already in the bonus too while warriors are having some foul troubles already, Kings could easily go up 2-0 in this series ahead of the trip to Oakland.

My pick for tonight.

Philadelphia 76ers (-3.5) vs Brooklyn Nets = First Quarter Win 1,86 Odds.

Sacramento Kings vs Golden State Warriors (-2.5) = Golden State Warriors  Win 1,86 Odds.

My last bet lost but, I hope my picks for tonight will win.
Good luck guys.

It's amazing how much golden state gets the benefit of the doubt.  They are a terrible road team all year long and they are favored on the road against a quote better team at least by record.  Getting close to the end of the 4th quarter but how can anyone bet on golden state favored on the road against a higher seed.  I still think they will win the series but no way could I lay in on them on game 1 or 2.

That's not what the bookies thought. They believed that regardless of the Warriors' record on the road, people would still bet on them as they are a very popular team. Based on the last two games, I'm sure the Warriors were the public's bet, and that means the public lost a lot of money in those games.

[YuginKadoya]

Here are the result for my picks today,

Philadelphia 76ers VS Brooklyn Nets SCORE 96 - 84 - WIN

Well, despite the lack of players the Brooklyn Nets surely got heart they still continue to resist but their efforts are all in vain, Cameron Johnson and Mikal Bridge are still fighting despite the futility, but that was all to naught, Looking at the players' record of the 76ers Tobias Harris has a double-double of 12 rebounds and 20 points, Joel Embiid has a double-double of 19 rebounds and 20 points while Tyrese Maxey got 33 points going with the win over the Nets,

Sacramento Kings VS Golden State Warriors SCORE 114 - 106 - LOST

It was really a close game and the Warriors are really struggling to play away but to watch the game it was really great game to watch the Kings really did well in this game, their crowd was really wild, and surely Draymond Green was frustrated about the Ejection he gives to him, Malik Monk got 18 points De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis both got 24 points making a win, well, 2 more wins for the Kings and they are off to the Quarterfinals but now that they are playing at home court I surely expect a game changer for this one,

[danherbias07]

Surprise, surprise. Sacramento Kings won again. They are the underdog twice in this series and yet they prove most of the basketball analysts and that includes me who had predicted this series to end in Game 5. Maybe it will, in the Kings' favor and not the Warriors. 

2/5.
I was right about the Andrew Wiggins props, he will definitely step up his game and he did. 23 PRA was achieved with him recording 22 points and 5 rebounds. But the Warriors may need more from him next time. He is the player that is mostly left open due to the fact that Steph and Klay were always doubled.

The 76ers covered the -10.5. I love what Embiid is doing, that is how you will receive MVP chants, by being flexible. The double team always comes to him and he is getting faster at recognizing it to kick out the ball for an open shooter. Trust the process, trust your teammates.
20 points, 19 rebounds, and 7 assists. His stats almost looks like the Joker's daily stats, just better with 1 steal and 3 amazing blocks.

Maybe they'll step up when there's home court advantage? I guess they will considering how mesmerizing that crowd when they're at their home court. He was definitely good even on Game 1 though he missed that corner 3 for the win but still a good performance with those crucial rebounds too. He definitely needs to step up, their shooters are being held considering it's their defense as well to score, Mike Brown knows that.

[RealMalatesta]

My pick for tonight.

Philadelphia 76ers (-3.5) vs Brooklyn Nets = First Quarter Win 1,86 Odds.

It's amazing how much golden state gets the benefit of the doubt.  They are a terrible road team all year long and they are favored on the road against a quote better team at least by record.  Getting close to the end of the 4th quarter but how can anyone bet on golden state favored on the road against a higher seed.  I still think they will win the series but no way could I lay in on them on game 1 or 2.  

Well winning 4 rings in under 10 years does make that for a team. They won 2015 and they won 2022 as well, that is a 7 year difference and they got 4 out of 7, bucks, Lakers and raptors won one each during the same time with a famous Cavs one as well, but aside from that it is 8 out of 4 for them, they won the 50% possible titles in the last 8 years. When you have a team like that, even if the road games this season was terrible, people just think Warriors could still win.

Plus, experience difference was talked about as well, that's a big difference. All in all, if you have Curry on your team (and Klay as his help) it is obvious that you have a big advantage, I don't care if you are 8th seed, or 10th seed coming from play-in, having Curry means anything could happen.

Actually, I really think that the Warriors are doing great but they would need some more from Andrew Wiggins Gary Payton II has made 13 points this time but what the Warriors needed from these two is the ability for them to block shots and steal the ball, and on that Sacramento Kings game, if you look at the turnovers the Sacramento Kings, made 14 turnovers while the Warriors have 20 turnovers so aside from good defense they need to minimize their turnover,


My picks for today's game

Boston Celtics VS Atlanta Hawks

The stake odds for this game are 1.18 for the Celtics and 5.20 for the Hawks, for now, Danilo Gallinari can not play for the Celtics while the Hawks don't have any problem with injuries, but for this game, Boston is at home and the odds are high my pick is the Boston Celtics but my bet is for Jayson Tatum to hit 30 plus points for this game,

Cleaveland Cavaliers VS New York Knicks

The stake odds for this game are 1.43 for the Cavaliers and 2.90 for the Knicks, Right now Dylan Windler can not play for the Cavaliers while Isaiah Roby, can not play for the Knicks and Josh Hart is doubtful if he's going to play, for this game the Cavaliers is at home so this is a tough call, but for this game, I think I will go with the Cleaveland Cavaliers,
 
Phoenix Suns VS Los Angeles Clippers

The stake odds for this game are 1.25 for the Suns and 4.10 for the Clippers, Right now Cameron Payne is doubtful if he can play for the Suns' while Paul George can not play for the Clippers so for this game the Suns are at home, and they still had a strong team despite having Payne injured so my pick for this game is the Phoenix Suns,
