NBA 2023-2024 betting

I totally agree with you guys on the Butler topic. He is really inadequate on the offensive side in this series which can lead Heat to lose easier than most of us expect. Butler needs to be more active with his steal attempts and scoring many more points than this at the same time. He has been the main factor in Heat's reaching this round in the playoff stage in the first place.

As you know Heat finished the regular season in 7th place in the Eastern Conference. As a result not many people including me were giving them a chance to have a run like this. Butler has done the biggest work in this time period by scoring a lot of points and carrying his team. He has become like Lakers' Lebron or Warriors' Curry.

Therefore Butler needs to be aware of the seriousness of the situation and do something.

It's definitely a gameover If Denver Nuggets should win this game 4, which I think they will unless Jimmy Butler choses to either step up today or sit out, and I really don't know when next he get a shot at winning a championship, should the Heat win the Championship this it's pretty obvious whose name would make the most story and it's that of Butler's over everyone else on the Heat roster, he's stated really with the Bucks and Celtics, but all that would have count for nothing if he folds now!

What NBA story could possible better than the 8th seeded team and with the most undrafted playing winning a championship while beating the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th best teams of the regular season enroute to the victory, and that'll make Jimmy go down as the first to have done it, I know they're some many record that have been broken this season and post alone by various teams or individual, but there is still a few more that could get broken too.

The Heat have never been behind in a series prior to the NBA Finals. This is the only series where they are trailing, but if it becomes 3-1, then you are right that the series could be over soon. However, it's too early to discuss that in my opinion because the Heat are still fighting to even the series. Despite being the underdogs, they haven't let that deter them. They are here to compete and aim to make history by winning the championship. It's this kind of dedication that makes them a good team.

Miami Heat starting to bring this game closer. Even though I put some bitcoin on the Denver Nuggets, I’d still like to see this game be a good one.  I don’t think the Heat will be able to close the gap though, and think Denver is just too strong for them. Jokic is just such a beast.

Hoping to see more “playoff Jimmy”. He’s not been that guy this series for some reason. Go

I guess it's high we just call this series what it really is, It's game for the Miami Heat, and I'm going to put majority of the blame on Butler yet again a 37 year Kyle Lowry still dropping credible numbers and plays, and the same goes for Kelvin Love, but Jimmy Butler saw Nikola Jokic out with 5 foul, I believe that was their best right time to charge and attack the rim with Jimmy Butler being the best man for the job, he did just once or twice and both were successful for FTs and the other was a basket and a chance at a 3 point play while already in the bonus, but he just wouldn't want to carry the game on himself as it should be, I wonder why with Jokic out and Jimmy not double teamed, he would rather have Bam Adebayo bring the ball from the back court all the to the front when Jimmy himself is better ball handler and could easily draw 'em fouls, but he decide to hide himself in the right corner and barely touched the in the last 2- 3, all we get for this series is "Jimmy Bottler"....


Denver Nuggets are the 2023 NBA Champions, with Jokic as the well deserved Finals MVP, you saw it here first..., Let's just wait for the official announcement on Tuesday.

Congrats to those who ride on the bandwagon on the Nuggets, and I think majority of us her won on that bet.

Just one game and they will be the champions, it's a long road for the team, for sure Murray will be very emotional.  Just like Klay of the Warriors, we wouldn't thought that he will also make a comeback and then help his team go the finals and win it.

Jokic no doubt will be the finals MVP so another accomplishment for the big fella.

[Distinctin]

Jokic no doubt will be the finals MVP so another accomplishment for the big fella.

That award will surely go to him. He wasn't able to tally a triple-double in this game, but his teammates stepped up, particularly Gordon, who scored 27 points with impressive shooting. This series will not go to Game 7 unless the Heat perform like the Celtics, who would need to win the next games to bring it to a Game 7 in the series.

Strus and Vincent, who were the heroes in Game 2, were not factors in this game, which is a big reason for the loss.

[danherbias07]

∆ C. Braun 5+ points / C. Braun 1+ steals @3.40 ∆  X

This kid had some amazing plays in Games 2 and 3, he covered 5+1 in both games when he was given 15+ mins.

You got that 1 steal but didn't get the points covered. He only made 1 point from the free-throw line but he is definitely helpful on the defensive end. I like how the points are spread now on the Denver Nuggets team, everyone is helping, Aaron Gordon outdoing himself on the offensive end by scoring 27 points in 42 minutes.
They showed today it's not just Jokic and Murray who are lethal in their team. Everyone is. 38 points only combined points of the duo but the rest of the team surely filled the holes and contributed. 48 points combined for Brown and Gordon. They are just too awesome as a team and it showed today.

Won my -4.5. I am late to set up my props, sadly.
It's just like the Lakers series, the only difference is the Miami Heat stole one, but if they didn't, this could've also ended in a sweep. I bet more comments about how underrated the Miami Heat is will come out today. Then, some things on why they are underdogs and what they lack on why they keep on losing games.
Congratulations to all the winners.

Jokic got a big lift from his teammates, those important baskets in the last quarter where he got his 5th foul.

It's really amazing that those fellas who are playing with Murray are really stepping up,
Gordon and Green with KCP and Brown and Porter Jr all  give their shares to prevent Miami
from making a rally and snatching this game away from them.


Congrats to all, especially those who support the Nuggets in handicap great catch!

It was really a great catch indeed, 1 more game and the Denver Nuggets will be the champion, truly a very great game right now Bruce Brown Jr. and Aaron Gordon made their incredible scoring in this game while Jamal Murray was now the one who switched the job of Jokic with the assist but still he is making those critical shooting when needed it was a great game to watch now I am curious on what the Miami Heat will do in the next game,


The result of Game 4

Miami Heat(2.22) VS Denver Nuggets(1.69) - WIN

Despite the zone defense of the Miami Heat to stop Jokic from getting those Crucial assists and just letting him inside the basket, Jamal Murray has switched his job with Jokic and made 12 assists, which made a great effect on the other players for the Denver Nuggets, Jamal Murray has a double-double of 12 assist and 15 points, Bruce Brown Jr. got 21 points Nikola Jokic has a double-double as well of 12 rebounds and 23 points, and Aaron Gordon got 27 points, winning the game if Coach Erik Spoelstra doesn't come up with some solid defense and offense for the Miami Heat Game 5 will be their last,

It’s not that they switch role with Jokic but he was forced to do that since he was always double team before he can make his moves so his natural reaction will pass the ball on the open teammates to made a shot for him. You can notice how he always hesitated to make a shot because he was on double team. Coach Erik knew how Jamal capable of making a lot of points so he decided to make him force to passed hoping that other players will have a terrible field goal like MPJ and KCP that is still struggling.

Coach Malone made a good adjustment on rotating his bench for MPJ play time since he is not productive on defense and offense while KCP is still good on defense. Nuggets is clearly on different level when Heat doesn’t have their magic 3. Gabe Vincent score only 2 points because of his foul trouble while he is the important player that contributes more on offense.

[jakelyson]

@jakelyson good luck bro.

My picks for tonight.

Miami Heat vs Denver Nuggets = Denver Nuggets Win 1,70 Odds.

Bam Adebayo Points, Assists and Rebounds = 34,5 Over 1,75 Odds.

Jamal Murray Points, Assists and Rebounds = 38,5 Over 1,85 Odds.

Good luck guys.

Thanks and it was really a win for us, I think the Denver Nuggets really did a great job in handling and penetrating the defense of the Miami Heat, it was a crazy game the Miami Heat did struggle, I don't really know what the Miami Heat can do now in order for this game to go at game 7, because I am seeing an end at Game 5 the Denver Nuggets is really a team that you can not underestimate, They have a great team indeed Aaron Gordon and Bruce Brown made an incredible points for this game,

It's definitely a gameover If Denver Nuggets should win this game 4, which I think they will unless Jimmy Butler choses to either step up today or sit out, and I really don't know when next he get a shot at winning a championship, should the Heat win the Championship this it's pretty obvious whose name would make the most story and it's that of Butler's over everyone else on the Heat roster, he's stated really with the Bucks and Celtics, but all that would have count for nothing if he folds now!

What NBA story could possible better than the 8th seeded team and with the most undrafted playing winning a championship while beating the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th best teams of the regular season enroute to the victory, and that'll make Jimmy go down as the first to have done it, I know they're some many record that have been broken this season and post alone by various teams or individual, but there is still a few more that could get broken too.

It's another win for the Denver Nuggets definitely a game over for the Miami Heat because they will likely be having a hard time returning on Game 5 If Erik Spoelstra doesn't come up with some plans and Jimmy Butler didn't up his game for Game 5 it is over for the Miami Heat, the Denver Nuggets is a team that are now dominating the Finals with 3 wins now, this could be the end for the Miami Heat,

[wheelz1200]

Another win.  Leaning in hard on game 5.  I can't see Miami coming back and game 5 will end up being just too much.  We could be witnessing the beginning of a dynasty here.  Jokic has learned how to completely control the game and with Murray, mjp, and Gordon along with the other role players this team is set to win for awhile.

Indeed it would have been an amazing story if Heat made it in this situation. But it really seems like game over from now on as Nuggets have brought the series to 3-1. The point gap was again above 10 points which is really another solid win for Nuggets side. Moreover Nuggets are going to have a court advantage next time. It will probably end by 4-1 as a result.

Jokic definitely deserves the championship though. He has made an incredible effort until now and he has been the star of the playoffs also. I agree with the people who think that he will get an MVP prize for the final series. Murray also has been really beneficial lately which alleviates Jokic's load at the same time which is nice to see.  

But of course I must admit that Gordon did hell of a work in Game 4.

Nuggets must end this series next game because they have the home court advantage and once they can not defeat Miami heat then for sure Miami heat have a chance to win in the next game because it will go back to their court. And in my opinion if the series will go up to game 7 then this is a marketing strategy of NBA which is they are making their fans got nervous

But the thing is, the Denver Nuggets is also aiming the same thing where they can make a history and give the franchise their very first championship title. Winning the next game in their own home is very likely the case because I don't think that they will not push and force this game so that they can celebrate their very first own title in their home. And about the Heat, they still have a chance to bounce back but let's just be honest here because their chance is not that good as they are definitely having a hard time pushing a win against the whole roster of Nuggets.

[Joca97]

Another win.  Leaning in hard on game 5.  I can't see Miami coming back and game 5 will end up being just too much.  We could be witnessing the beginning of a dynasty here.  Jokic has learned how to completely control the game and with Murray, mjp, and Gordon along with the other role players this team is set to win for awhile.

I love how Gordon understand Jokic so well and everytime Jokic gets the ball he go in and makes the points. But the Murray Jokic duo is soo good this season and no body can stop them. I also think that Miami cannot make a comeback in these series and i think in the next game might be over already with 4-1 for the Nuggets.

Chemistry. Both players Aaron Gordon and Nikola Jokic achieved great chemistry while Jamal while still resting with his injury. All they need is to insert Murray back but we can still see there is a miss pass when it's Gordon and Murray who does the same as Jokic does. The suppose to be alley-oop for Gordon assisted by Murray was an example of that, their eyes are not that matched yet.

Same with you @wheelz1200 I am going for the Nuggets again, I don't think I will have a chance to take that large handicap for the Miami Heat, I just don't see them winning too. Jokic is hungry, Murray is hungry too, and Gordon is hungrier.  They will probably play harder in their home and get their revenge for the stolen one in Game 2. The fans will also be livelier here and that might break the confidence of the Miami Heat, I know Jimmy likes the competition but he should've done that at their home, this will be in a different environment and if he will be the only one with high confidence, they will lose.
Another triple-double for Jokic?

Too early to talk about dynasty though, yes they have the chemistry but there are a lot of factors specially being healthy is a must if they want to stay on top. Warriors have their dynasty run when their core is healthy, but when injuries sets it, they have difficulty. Like the Bucks when they won their first ring, we thought that they could established a dynasty as well.

But as far as the championship goes, yeah it's hard to go against them, they might have lost game 2 at home. But for sure they don't want to extend this series and could win the next game.

-9.5 is the initial handicap given to us by sports bookies. But -8.5 is still good in my opinion although obviously, the odds are smaller.

That good eye-sight of Jokic gives everyone a chance to score.

He's very unpredictable, he can attack,pass and shoot the ball. An all around offensive arsenal
that gives the Nuggets a big advantage. And just like what you say, the combination of Murray
who also can create the same damage the way Jokic did, it's really a hard task for the Heat,
chances to win in game 5 is slim but we never know, maybe they may push for another one or Nuggets
will be crown as champ in front of their home crowd.

If the Nuggets win this and Jokic wins the Finals MVP, can we already consider him to be the best center in the history of the NBA, or am I just exaggerating? LOL. Sorry, but I'm just really impressed with how he played and how he remains unstoppable in the NBA Finals so far.

As you know Heat finished the regular season in 7th place in the Eastern Conference. As a result not many people including me were giving them a chance to have a run like this. Butler has done the biggest work in this time period by scoring a lot of points and carrying his team. He has become like Lakers' Lebron or Warriors' Curry.

Therefore Butler needs to be aware of the seriousness of the situation and do something.

I'm guilty about that as well because at first, I didn't have that much confidence towards the Heat especially in the first round where they faced the New York Knicks which they eventually defeated but in the second round, it was almost impossible for me to believe that they can defeat the #1 seed in the East which they did as well. But in the conference finals, that's when I have put my faith in them and it turns out profitable because they managed to eliminate the Celtics and almost swept them after having a 3-0 advantage.

I doubted them through every series.  Of the series I thought they could win was the Celtics one because they match up well against them.  They got help with giannis getting hurt in game one.  But this one might end up being a quick 5 game gentlemen sweep.  I'm leaning hard on Denver all the way through.  No answer for jokic.  And if Murray is on forget it no chance.

It's not that totally unfair where we can say that they got helped from Giannis getting hurt in Game 1 which eventually leaded to certain games of unavailability because the Miami Heat also have their own handicap as Herro and Oladipo's absence really gave the team some troubles too instead of having a much higher win rate per game in a specific series. I mean, look at them now, they surely needed someone who can also handle defense and give some offense but even if Tyler Herro is already available, it's not a wise move to insert him to the team in this phase.
