NBA 2024-2025 betting

[carlisle1]

Just 16 minutes before the game starts. Lines for Bucks have moved even lower with winner markets for Bucks to win currently priced @1.51.  I've took the bet. Bucks are playing at Fiserv Forum while being 0-2 down is more than enough reason to back them regardless on who is the favorites for tonight match or not. Over and out. Let's hope Bucks don't disappoint and keep their finals dream alive.


Giannis + Middleton + Holiday. I'm feeling good about this already.

Unfortunately they have already lost the first quarter and they are led by the Suns by 3 points. Nonetheless they remain favorites for the live winner market with odds @1.70. So they seem to still be able to quite easily win despite this gap.

Lucky for those who managed to bet within the live games after 1st quarter,
that odd is so sweet and Bucks easily counter Suns in the next 2 quarters of this game ending up with a huge gap.

The rotations really makes it more easier for all the starters, Portis still have good numbers playing with 18 minutes and able to contribute  11 points and with how Holiday and Middleton back up Giannis, they really provide the help.

Very different game with the fans cheering the team up! the impact really helps the morale of the team and they are not disappointed with the outcome!

Every time DeAndre Ayton sits down the Milwaukee Bucks start destroying the Suns. Perhaps it’s time we start considering DeAndre Ayton the main piece of the Phoenix Suns. I get that Chris Paul is a great story and Devin Booker has been the heart of the team for a while now but without DeAndre Ayton they wouldn’t have gotten past round 1.

Cam Johnson cannot defend Giannis, he might have a chance with Lopez instead. Saric could have been a great help on this foul trouble times. He somehow managed Giannis on Game 1. Speaking of foul trouble.
Monty Williams frustrated with officiating on Deandre Ayton in Suns’ Game 3 loss to Bucks
Scott Foster. 

“If I was a betting man, 11 games in a row,” Paul said. “11 games in a row.”

They all loss their composure because of all the calls against them. Fans helped putting fuel in the fire. How about Giannis, 13/17 in the freethrow line.
That's good for someone who sometimes shoots with an air ball.

0-2 so far in the NBA Finals.

I think my 0-2 will turn into 1-2 with the Bucks win.

I'll take this because it's gonna be the last bet on the series if I lose, no point for betting game 4 when you know that the series will be over soon. Therefore I'm going big in game 3 betting on the Bucks spread at -4.

This is my early pick, FADE OR FOLLOW, GOOD LUCK!

I'll tail you on this, I believe the Bucks will rally in the next game they cannot afford to go 3 games down. The line is currently -3.5 on my bookie so it gives me at least a slightly better value.

Good luck.

I also pull the trigger, at -4.5 with the Bucks.

As I have said in the other thread, this is a must win situation, and usually teams who's back are against the wall, perform above expectations. Just like what we have seen in Clippers in their homecourt wherein they smothered the Suns with good defense and beating the Suns in the offence.

Good to be back seeing a winning again on my bet. As expected the Bucks really played very well in their homecourt and check the Suns in the quarter quarter and push up a big lead that the Phoenix can't recovered.

Giannis again another 40+ point night for him. And at least the team delivers specially in offence and it was a big help for him. I think they will still be the favourite next game. I might do live betting next to increase my chances of winning some good odds. But its good to put pre-game bet though. And kudos to everyone who share this tips here.

I'm betting on the over 221.5 @1.89.

I'm betting the other way, I'm expecting game 3 as a low scoring game as the Bucks will put more defense since they are playing a do or die game, if they lose this, then their series is likely over, so they need to put more defense and should not allow the suns to get more open shots.

That was quite a close one, If only the 4th Quarter had produce a few more points.

0-2 so far in the NBA Finals.

There was a consensus here on the Bucks winning and indeed they delivered, congratulations to everyone.

Giannis stepping up really big, when the match began I like the fact he wasn't forcing the play to get his own points, he was setting up his folks and opening up the court a bit more.

I'm team "get the series even" now

Milwaukee Bucks VS Phoenix Suns

Just like what I expected from game 3 and the play of Giannis Antetokuonmpo from game 2 he truly ascends his skills in doing another 41 pts, and now his teammates Holiday and Middleton are doing their part in taking the lead high from start to finish, now if we would look at stake.com's odd the Milwaukee Bucks still have the edge on the odds I think because they are still playing on their home court, and now that Giannis has upped his game to a notch, the Bucks will need to tie the game by winning again in game 4,

I think this could be another win for the Bucks now my doubts that the Bucks may tie this game is 75% in my opinion if Giannis Injury will get to him again the percentage will be a 40% in my opinion, but this is a good chance to bet for the Bucks.

We already see the win that is needed for the Bucks, they dominate the Suns in game 3 and I believe they could even the series in game 4. Take them again while the spread is still -3.5, as the game approaches, that will move to -4.5 or even -5 IMO.

Congratulations to those who believe in the Bucks in game 3.

Thanks for the heads up bro. But it's still -4.5 at Stake.com for 1.98 and I think this will not change just yet.
I am at 4W-2L now including my over and under with the same bet as the spreads. I will keep on betting for the Bucks for now as I don't see the Suns having an answer for Giannis power game on the inside.
Maybe the Bucks starts slow just like how they lose the first 2 games against the Nets and Game 1 against the Hawks. I hope they can continue for this series to go 6 or better 7.

The win bring them the high morale that they  needed as a team. Play together and jive with each players who are inside the court, if they keep that kind of plays or system it's really hard for the Suns to snatch a win from them at home.

Giannis is really doing all the best that he can, better to support him and bring the help that each players can contribute to win.

Let see if how they'll duplicate the win this coming game 5. Good Luck!

I think the opening was -3.5, now at -4 already. In Sportsbet, you can get -4.5 with 1.93 odds but will increase to 2.02 if you have a price boost, you'll get the best odds but you can just enjoy in one bet and since we are in the finals, it's very useful to us.

Giannis leads the team to win, he is a real leader as he play hard and give his best to win.

I had a little doubt in the first half but the Bucks suddenly increase their lead in 6 minutes of the 2nd quarter IIRC.
This is the same scenario the Suns did to them in game 2 where the Suns scored 30 points and allow the bucks to only score 16 points.

In game 3 bucks had 35 points while Suns had 17 points only.

I also think that they can even the game, now that Giannis Antetokuonmpo has recovered 100% from his injury, and I think he is pretty hungry in winning this championship, the Phoenix Suns sure have to find ways in stopping Antetokuonmpo from his tracks, and now that the Bucks team gameplay is pretty much solid now, game 4 will be easy and the court advantage is still for the Milwaukee Bucks,

I think the Suns need to look for ways to stop the bucks in their territory, so they can lead further, but in my opinion, now I can say that it is pretty good to bet for the Bucks on game 4 now that Giannis Antetokunmpo has got his momentum.

No doubt about his leadership, as he really commits himself  trying to win the game. This final is really important to him knowing that each season newly formed super teams will arise.

If he'll not going to pushed his limits and try to grab this opportunities to win a title, he's chance to reach the finals will take much harder way.


I like that comparison  with how Bucks manage to extend their leads in that particular quarter and make sure to maintain it, not giving any chance for Suns to bounce back.

Coach Mike Budenholzer made a great adjustment, this new strategy works well for the team.

[goinmerry]

You made the right choice adding more bets for them is now close in collecting your winnings, still leading 115-94 under 3 mins left now.

Because that was the only choice and there's no way Bucks will lose on Game 3. As I said, Game 3 is the turning point of the Bucks and if they lose it, it's a sure win by the Suns on Game 4.

Still lacking contribution from Middleton, Holiday, and Lopez as it's not their usual but still nice adjustments. Expecting them to make another setup on Game 4 as going back to Sun's homecourt downed by 3-1 is critical to them.

No need for me to wait for odds adjustment. Bucks -4.5 should be covered next game.

Nice decision, better bet early as the line movement is nowhere to go but up. Bucks maybe down in the series but they have the biggest win so far in the series as they won by 20 points in game 3, that's a big bounce back and they have a good momentum going to game 4.

Ginnis FG percentage dropped a bit, but his score is consistent, and one big improvement also is his FT shooting which he only missed 4 of 17 attempts.

Lol, this is hilarious, Suns only have a total of 16 FTs combined, Giannis beat them all, this tells how aggressive Giannis is.

[Questat]

Suns has no option but to foul Giannis when he drives to the basket because they are not doubling him, and they also believe that their strategy will work because Giannis is not a good Free Throw shooter but in game 3 he shoots well although not perfect in the line. Maybe they'll make an adjustment in game 4 as losing 20 points to a team that they previously beat is already alarming.

I thought the game will be tomorrow and I already put my bets in advance. I re-checked and it will be July 15 9AM GMT+8.  Darn, I looked like a fool excited for the game.
But that's it, my bets are already locked for the Bucks -4.5 (1.91) Over 218.5. Yes, this time I will go for over score as I don't see Booker will have the same game as Game 3. He will surely force to make a score and try to find his rhythm and the Bucks will answer back.

After reading your post I double check the schedule and yes you are correct the game will take on the 15 the day after tomorrow, Odd is very interesting Bucks ML is @ 1.56 good enough for small bet,.

Bucks will do all the best that they can to keep from this series, winning is a must since the if they lose Suns will end this at home.

Good luck to you seems that over bet also good, decent odd and with Booker making his offense, high scoring game might happened.

Good choices of bet. Bucks might win another at home again tomorrow with still the same spread as game 3 is somehow a comfortable position as the Bucks are now slowly gathering momentum.
While it's also wise to go for the over since the last 3 games ends with a high scoring game.

Let's just see what the Bucks is capable of as both games 3 and 4 are crucial for their chance to win the Finals.

[Jating]

I'm betting on the over 221.5 @1.89.

Yeah, I thought that they can still make the over 221.5, it's just one shot either two or three will make it for me. Unfortunately, in the last 4 minutes they are a lot of bad shots on both teams, still horrendous shooting.

I haven't bet on the next game, but I will go for the Bucks a well -4.5. Still thinking the over/under again, probably will go for the under as @danherbias07 advise.

Bucks have the momentum since they already taste the win and they are playing at home,
a very high morale team who really trying to take this chance in winning the title.

With that kind of game they played last game 3, adding some more good design for the big man inside I think
that's effective while bringing Portis again to help adding some good numbers in their offensive attacks.

Key players of both teams will bring big impacts this coming game 4, for sure both teams wants this win for their personal goals winning this series.
