My bets for later.
Los Angeles Lakers versus Golden State Warriors‍ - Golden State Warriors ML
I want a Game 7.   Well, what the Warriors showed in their home at Game 5 is something to look forward to. Draymond Green as an aggressive offensive weapon and Wiggins is great at defending Lebron James. Steph was a bit silent but let's not forget the space was always spread out because of him. Now, maybe it's time for Klay Thompson to shine.

I like the odds for Golden State Warriors as well but then, there might be a couple of factors that could make or mar their chances of extending the series to a game 7 and earn their homecourt advantage, Anthony Davis looked pretty banged up from game 5, and The Lakers in my opinion wouldn't stand any chance without their big man Center, he's played a major role in every of their win so far, and the 2 games they lost so far in this series, were games here the warriors managed to limit the Lakers free throw attempts and AD rim protection dominance, As far as I can tell every players in the warriors roster have been this situation but only AD, Lebron, and Tristan Thompson who have barely played all season long have been to used all kind of NBA bubbles, but AD out would be an instant blow to the Lakers.

I'm riding on the warriors ML bandwagon too!

Although I want this to extend but I took that -3.5 handicap in favor of the Lakers considering Wiggins is still questionable too for Game 6 and even if they have him it seems Warriors are not that good on road game and Lakers win all of their home games in this play-in and playoffs games. Draymond was really great during that game 5 though but not expecting it tonight.

Draymond was really great during that game 5 though but not expecting it tonight.

Although he got a rib injury I really think that Wiggins will still play for the Warriors despite that questionable injury he has, but the team Warriors is not really limited they can win even without Andrew Wiggins, and if the referee will not interfere with those fouls giving the Lakers more free throws then I think the Warriors will likely win this game, but for sure the Lakers will always have their chance but for me, it will end on game 7,

My bets results both are a win for me,

Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics - WIN

Boston Celtics has manage to win Jaylen Brown got 17 points Jayson Tatum got 19 points and Marcus Smart got 22 for this game, This is the moment of truth for this team now that the Celtics have tied the game it was really a hard game for them because 7 players were all they have playing against the 76ers, I really don't know what happen but somehow the Celtics manage to tie the game to pursue to game 7,

Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets - WIN

While this is goodbye for the Phoenix Suns well there was a lot of drama that happen in the ending of the Suns, and it was Deandre Ayton that they put the blame on which is not wrong and not right aswell, for me Deandre Ayton is one of the good guys, a humble guy that doesn't have a max contract I really think Ayton is playing this way and not really consistent was because of he thought that he would get a max contract this season but end up no max contract and the coach hate him so much that he wants Ayton to of the Roster of the Suns,

I did a Lakers -5.0 @ 2.17 and I'm quite confident that they can cover that handicap as long as they can win the game as every wins from them will be at least 10 point margin. Their moneyline was decent enough too but I took the handicap because of the reason I've mentioned above.

This will be a do or die game for the Warriors and I know they will put their best performance later even if they are not that good on the road. Best of luck gentlemen!

[wheelz1200]

I'm gonna run it back same bet as Wednesday.  Taking the Knicks spread +6.5 on the road.  That's a pretty big spread.  Knicks were favored by 3.5 now underdogs by 6.5.  That's a 10 point swing for home court.

And gimme the golden state warriors ML to win the game. 

Hoping the Knicks win and we get to see 3 game 7s for entry into the conference finals.  Enjoy the games and good luck.

Go knicks!!!

We gotta see that later on then and yeah they can win without him and they are capable with that but that performance he gives on game 5 is something and if they miss him for tonight's game I guess it will have a huge impact to their offense.

The pressure will be on the defending champ tonight and with Lakers on the home game they'll for sure not gonna play without a fight.

I bet they will, let's expect that both teams will do their best to take control of the game and take it in their favor. Warriors are already having a hard time on the road but let's see if in this case, it will be the same scenario because the hype right now is pointing towards the Game 6 Klay which makes it more exciting but a heavy pressure on KT's shoulders.

Lakers is looking forward to close the series and advance towards the Conference Finals where they will face the Denver Nuggets. But it won't be that easy too because the Warriors will be defending their end like crazy especially Looney and Green, but the Lakers roster is something who can make some miracles.

[jakelyson]

Well, if he is really injured then I think they can not do anything about it but I am just saying if he is not available, and yes he is providing the team with huge points and impact that they need but if he is not available what gives, but yeah posterizing Anthony Davis surely have a cost,


Picks for today's game

Miami Heat vs New York Knicks

The Miami Heat will take on the New York Knicks in Game 6 for their Eastern Conference Semi-Finals tonight at Kaseya Center, right now Tyler Herro can not play for the Heat this could be an exploding moment for Jimmy Butler again while Jalen Brunson will surely answer those points of his own, even though he got a 38 points score last game, I think Jimmy can make a difference in this game right now, I think the Heat is now aware of Jalen Brunson got the potential in leading this team so they need to finish this game 6 so my pick is the Miami Heat
Key Injuries: Tyler Herro (hand) is out, for the Heat, - Immanuel Quickley (Ankle) is out, for the Knicks,


Los Angeles Lakers vs Golden State Warriors

The Golden State Warriors will take on the Lakers in Game 6 for their Western Conference Semi-Finals tonight at Crypto.com Arena, Right now Patrick Baldwin Jr. and Andrew Wiggins are questionable if they can play for the Warriors for this game if Andrew Wiggins can not play then they need to rely on any players that have something like Wiggins, and Jonathan Kuminga need to step up his game and prove them he can do it, but yeah the Warriors need to win this for the game to go back at Chase Center while the Lakers will need to finish the Warriors because it is also crucial for them if the game is Switch back to the Chase Center but for now the Warriors will not let that happen, so my pick is the Golden State Warriors,
Key Injuries: Andrew Wiggins (Ribs) is Questionable, Patrick Baldwin Jr. (Toe) is Questionable for the Warriors - Mo Bamba (ankle) is questionable,
Anthony Davis (Head) is Questionable, and LeBron James (Foot) is Questionable for the Lakers,

[YuginKadoya]

Here are my late picks for today's game

Miami Heat VS New York Knicks

The stake odds for this game are 1.41 for the Heat and 3.05 for the Knicks, Right now Tyler Herro can not play for the Heat, because of a hand injury while Immanuel Quickley can not play for the Knicks because of Ankle injuries for this game the Heat is sure can finish up the knicks in game 6 if Jimmy Butler will not play this up nicely they then Jalen Brunson can have his play of his own and can get back a game 7 the game is at Kaseya Center home court to Miami Heat so this game could surely play for the heat so my pick is the Miami Heat to finish this game at game 6,

Los Angeles Lakers VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 1.65 for the Lakers and 2.31 for the Warriors, right now Andrew Wiggins and Patrick Baldwin Jr. are both questionable and may not play for the Warriors, While Mo Bamba, Anthony Davis, and LeBron James are all questionable at the moment the Warriors will need to be aggressive in this game if they want to get back to the game at chase center right now they are playing the Lakers at Crypto.com Arena where the Lakers are at home, Andrew Wiggins and Anthony Davis may not play for both team, both surely are Crucial in getting the best performance for both teams, and this could seriously a bad thing for the Lakers but my pick for the match is the Golden State Warriors I believe they can beat this up and make it to game 7,

[OgNasty]

^ There is no chance that Anthony Davis and LeBron James don’t play. The Warriors are also terrible on the road. I think the Lakers end it tonight and advance to the next round. If they fail to capitalize on tonight and give the Warriors a game 7, I think it will be very bad for LA fans. Tonight we’ll see everything that both teams have and I’m excited for it, but I think the Lakers will win.

[vennali]

Jelen Brunson single handedly keeping the Knicks alive in this game but, I don't think it'll be enough. Knicks need to find a secondary source of scoring or the game is done and dusted.

Earlier in the week I was with you in thinking Lakers would end it in 6, but with Davis getting hit in game 5 I decided to take the Warriors moneyline tonight. If the Warriors win tonight, they will probably win the series.

**EDIT**

Lakers came out strong and currently killing the Warriors. This game might get out of hand fast.

Yep, LeBron as well as AD starting tonight and both of them are leading the scoring for Lakers.  I think the Lakers will end it in 6 and not take a chance to take the game into 7. Take some much needed rest during the game 7 time and prep for the next series.

Congratulations bro if you took that bet, you are a winner today. I want game 7 to happen but from watching what happened today it looks like the Warriors will just fail against the Nuggets even if they win this series against the LA Lakers.
The team of Lebron and AD might have a better chance against them. This will be fun, AD versus Jokic, Lebron versus Gordon. I cannot wait to see it.

1/2 for me.
I was right that the New York Knicks versus the Miami Heat could end in a close battle and my spread was covered with +6 for the Knicks.
Miami Heat will not wait on who will be their opponent for the Eastern Conference Finals. Celtics or 76ers? What do you think guys? My instincts tell me the 76ers will snatch it from the Celtics at TD Garden.

Well, thanks I was just right on my choice. I think the Lakers has a fight for the Nuggets in this series and they made their critics silent by defeating the defending champs, they may have been bad on the regular season but I think they've made the right choice by picking Vanderbilt and Russel on their roster and as well as Hachimura.

I really can't believe that warriors let their indiscipline get the better of their game plan, despite having a terrible shooting series and rhythm, they still gave up 41 attempts from the Free Throw line to Lakers compared to the merely 14 they had for themselves, of which they made 10 of, with an awful shooting night by their standards, and then allowing an opportunist opponent that many attempts from the line, there is no way you can win an elimination game that by given up such outrageous number of FTs, of all the 6 games series warriors only won the 2 games in which they either had the same amount of the FTA as the Lakers or, just one FTA short from the Lakers numbers, but then the least FTA difference between the 4 games in favour of the Lakers was 20 FTA more than that of the warriors.

Their game plan for attacking inside wasn't effective in that game, so they resorted to their usual strategy of shooting from outside. Unfortunately, their shots were not falling, which prevented them from making a comeback in the game. Their three-point shooting percentage in that game was only 27%, which was supposed to be the Lakers' number. However, there was a surprise as the Lakers shot 50% beyond the arc and dominated the free throw area.

This series has been a very bad one for the Warriors, and I would say they were exposed in this game. Therefore, it's imperative for the Warriors to upgrade their lineup next season.

I think even at the start of the season, something is not right with the Warriors as they've lost most of their role players. Although they replace some of them, but it was a different breed, unlike like year wherein everyone fit with the system.

And then we have one issues, at the start is the Poole and Green, and later on specially in the series, it seems the that the ego of Poole is very evident and so I'm not surprised that Green punch him. Because we have seen Poole fighting everyone at their bench, so that is not a good sign for me, in my opinion. But they've given him a good contract, so not sure if they want to keep him at the Warriors side or use him now as trade bait.

[wheelz1200]

I'm gonna run it back same bet as Wednesday.  Taking the Knicks spread +6.5 on the road.  That's a pretty big spread.  Knicks were favored by 3.5 now underdogs by 6.5.  That's a 10 point swing for home court.

And gimme the golden state warriors ML to win the game. 

Hoping the Knicks win and we get to see 3 game 7s for entry into the conference finals.  Enjoy the games and good luck.

Go knicks!!!

Welp fell flat on my face doubling back with those 2.  Sucks to see the Knicks out but they are a couple pieces away still.  They need dependable shooters on the team.  RJ amd Randle looked lost like they didn't know how to play basketball lol.  Was a rough series basketball wise for each team to watch.  Looks like the west is gonna win this year but who knows.

Yeah, this is where experience does matter. Randle and RJ seem to find themselves in panic mode while Jalen Brunson doing it all felt like I was exhausted more from watching him do it all for the team. That's not right, something must be done on the Knicks team, they don't need a trade but a level up on their confidence must be done. And, Randle must identify what he really is too, a forward or a point guard, he seems complicated. Quentin Grimes will grow, maybe next year they will be different.

Tomorrow, Game 7 Boston Celtics versus the Philadelphia 76ers. 3:30 AM for GMT+8. I don't want to miss the live game but the time is messed up.  I guess I am back at watching the full replay while avoiding the spoilers in my phone notifications.
No handicaps, taking the high risk.
76ers ML - @3.35
Over 198.5 - @1.73
Good luck everyone.
