NBA 2023-2024 betting

I was definitely way off on that one.  Glad I didn't have anything on the line.  Dallas keeps surprising me this postseason.  Luka seems to get points no matter what.  I don't understand how he's able to score so much when he's so slow, but he does.  I'm glad they managed to keep from being swept.  I still think the Warriors easily win this series though.  It will just take them one more game.

It sure was a tragic night after the Texas shooting and Steve Kerr was pretty emotional and tired because of the slow operation of the government he didn't talk about basketball but about what happened last night the bill is sitting and senators are not doing anything, he added, and in my opinion, what happened today may happen tomorrow or in the future, I was in shock and frustrated as well, after seeing the victims of these mass shooting, this is inevitable if the government is doing something about it,

Now here is my pick for tomorrow's game highlighted in green are my pick

Miami Heat VS Boston Celtics (Series Tied 2 - 2)

Stake odds for this game are 2.10 for the Heat while 1.77 for the Celtics while Kyle Lowry, P.J. Tucker, Gabe Vincent, Max Strus, and Tyler Herro are questionable if they can play, while Sam Hauser can not play for the Celtics, while Robert Williams III and Marcus Smart is questionable if they can play for the Celtics, from that performance of the Celtics win on game 4 and Miami players choking Bam and Jimmy I got to say I am still staying for the Boston Celtics, I think they can push a win right now and I think that they have seen some weakness on the Miami Heats side, but this is really a great game to watch and it is very unpredictable, but my take is the Boston Celtics.

[Pamadar]

I will also go with the Dallas this game, I think the Warriors might relax in this game and might want to finish Dallas in their home court game 5.

Same here, I expect Dallas to come out swinging and dish out their all here since it'll be a huge question mark to the team if they don't get at least one win while the other teams (Nuggets and Grizzlies) got at least one home win. I also want to include the under as I think the pace will continue to slow down similar to the last game but i'm more confident on Dallas to win.

I think the opposite. I think Dallas knows they’re finished and probably subconsciously want this series to be over. I’m not expecting much out of them tonight and I think the Warriors are incentivized to win and get on to the next round. The odds giving Dallas a good shot at winning seem like an opportunity for a nice win. I currently don’t have any money on this game, but if I was betting I’d be betting Warriors without hesitation.

Looking at the first 8 minutes of this game so far, Dallas Mavericks actually look really good and they are playing with good pace, Kleber is finally knocking down some shots, 2/2 from 3 pt line, in just the first quarter.

Dallas could win this, they've got nothing to lose, do they ? The series is likely over but 1 win at home wouldn't be so bad.

And they did with the win. Dallas support gives them the win today, though Warriors still try to snatch

this game and end the series with a sweep. Dallas managed to protect that huge lead from the first half, things that they needed
to work more, allowing Warriors to regain their momentum when the clock is already nearing to an end will motivate them to keep
Doing the best thing that they can do. Congrats to all the Dallas backers sweet win!

I guess that's what steph meant after his interview after game three "game 4 is playing with house money".  I mean they shoukd be able to take the mavs at home in game 5 but could you imagine mj or kobe saying "meh game 4 is playing with house money".  They saw a 3-0 lead as a way to step on their opponents throat.  They better not lazily go into the finals thinking they are gonna run Miami or Boston off the floor.

I don't think they can do that on those teams. I am sure they will give them a hell of a fight and won't end up like this WCF. They might as well finish it if they gain a 3-0 lead or a history will be written if they get careless.
For Game 5 at ECF I will be betting for Miami Heat ML. Time to bounce back after a bad Game 4. Heat will be at their home so let's see if the fans could bring an impact and share some energy with the team.
3 Heat players are questionable so for those who want to make sure about the starters, bet before the game.
Over 205 seems doable too. I'll take it. Good luck.

I feel you, because same as you, I was also hesitant to put some bets to the Warriors side because I have some feeling that this won't be a sweep and it happened. As I watched their Game 4 earlier, it was somehow clear and plain that the Dallas Mavericks will win the game because the Warriors didn't poured so much sweat even if they could just end the game earlier. Next game, it will be the Warriors as they always liked to end the series in their home.

Congrats as well mate, Dallas came through in the clutch, although I will say it give us some panic when they are about chipping that huge lead at the end of the 3rd and and in the final quarter.

As for the next game, Heat and Celtics, I will go with the Celtics here, -2.5 and maybe throw some on the under 203.5. I think Boston has the momentum after that big win and Jimmy Butler might now be 100% in this game.

I really also like the Celtics spread here, going by how game 4 went, but the reality is that neither of both teams are actually healthy, more for the Celtics than the Heat though, Robert Williams (who played an important role in game 4) is said to be questionable and Marcus Smart would also be a game time decision. Jimmy Butler was way off in the last game, and Kyle Lowry doesn't seem to have gotten any better too.

I'll just wait for the starting lineup and grab some props or overs, I'm fading on the spread.

[wheelz1200]

Taking the home team getting 3.5 points.  Seems like the majority is going with the celts.  That line is too suspect for me not to take the heat.  Always like laying on the home team getting points, especially when it's the heat.  Good luck everyone and enjoy the game tonight.

Thanks   For me as long as Dallas gets at least a 14 pt lead it's enough to secure my bet as a winner since Stake has that 14pt promo.

I'm also taking the Celtics, the Heat is currently in a tough spot as Herro is still out but Lowry is playing while the Celtics are good to go with their usual starters. Also whoever wins here can make the extra push next game to close out the series.

[Harkorede]

I'm banking on Robert Williams III to have some quality minutes today, hopefully he'll stay in the game for long enough to get it (provided his knee is okay: )

I've got him to;

1. grab Over 6.5 Rebounds @ 1.76 https://i.imgur.com/yrMORIc.png

2. Over 7.5 Points @ 1.83 https://i.imgur.com/HUiDndl.png

I thought that this one might be over 203.5, but it seems that both teams have a bad start in the 1st quarter as compare to the last game.

And with just a couple of minutes to go, I even doubt that either might reach 100 points. Good defense and horrendous shooting, congrats to those who ride on the Celtics handicap or ML, because it looks like they are going to cover it and win the game now.

Yes, they did. IIRC, the handicap was just -4.5 to gain a good profit. Cheers to them.
Loss both my bet of Heat ML and Over 205. Just like TravelMug said, high level of defense, and like there is a lid in the ring that makes them unable to shoot. One example was the layup of Jimmy Butler that just rolled at point-blank range.  Heat badly needs a hero. I mean Tyler Herro.
I got one good bet builder that hit though thanks to the low-scoring game.

[YuginKadoya]

Here is the result of my pick for today's game,

Miami Heat VS Boston Celtics (Celtics Lead 2 - 3) - WIN

And yeah! another win for the Boston Celtics, and now leading the Eastern Conference Finals, Jimmy Butler did only 13 points, and Gabe Vincent has 15 points while Bam Adebayo has a double-double performance of 10 rebounds and 18 points, but kudos for P.J. Tuckers incredible defense and give 11 rebounds for the Heat, but it was not enough for the Celtics has Al Horford had 16 points, and Jaylen Brown got 25 points and Jayson Tatum got double-double performance of 12 rebounds and 22 points winning game 5, the 1st half was a rough game for the Celtics but they had come back on the 2nd half and getting much leads they need to win the game,

No bets yet guys?
Okay, I'll start it. This may end the Western Conference Finals and the Warriors may celebrate tonight on their homecourt. Balloons and confetti may also be ready to drop from the roof.
I am with the Warriors to end this -7.5. I just wish they could cover that amount of spread.
Also taking the bet for Over 213.5. Good luck to everyone.

Yes, I will tail you in this one, the Warriors are going to win and celebrate it at their homecourt. It will be a bitter sweet for them because it take years for their core to comeback from all those injuries and be in the finals again.

I will just go with the -7.5 handicap. I think they can cover that one up and could win in double digits.

I'll also be tailing on the Over 213.5, reason being that, I want to believe that the Mavericks would be riding on the same momentum from the last game, and would be looking to extend the series in the best possible way, and offense would be the only way for that to happen, you really can't start stop Warriors from scoring all night long, when even just the bench guys can get it going and are terrific shooters themselves. The Warriors would end the series tonight, but the spread might not get covered, I think.

I have my eyes on a couple of props too; I'll add them soon.

[wheelz1200]

Yeah in front of their home crowd I'm Def taking Warriors.  Thought it would be around 8 or so, so I see value at 6.5.  If dubs up by 4-5 by the end of the game, mavs gonna foul until the lights are out helping it push higher.  Do or die just don't think mavs got it.

Enjoy the game all

I will be conservative and go with the initial line of -6.5. And then maybe some live betting, will have to look at how the Warriors are going to start the 1st half. They seems to start very slow though and then go on a rampage in the 3rd quarter. But this one could be different, as they could start hot with their shooting and then putting a clinic to cover our spread.

∆ L. Doncic 25+ points / L. Doncic 8+ rebounds / L. Doncic 1+ steals @1.72 ∆  won

I'm rooting for the Mavericks to win, i'd like to see the series being extended, but i'm not sure they can pull it off.  It will probably come down to whether or not they make their three-point shots: "you live by the 3pt, you die by the 3pt". If Finney-Smith, Bullock, and Kleber can recreate their Game 4 performance (12/20 3pt @60%), i think Dallas has a chance. Luka is one of the very few players who has been consistent throughout the series, so my prop is on him. He's averaging 33/9/2 (vs. Warriors) and 32/10/2 (21/22 postseason). Even if they get eliminated tonight (which is likely), i'm confident Doncic will put up on a show.
