NBA 2024-2025 betting

Can the Boston Celtics withstand the loud crowd in Miami? Let's hope this will still be a close game. I hate to see a blowout happen, that will not be fun.

I'm sure you disliked the outcome of Game 3 as it was a blowout win by the Heat. Now that the Heat are already up 3-0, the rest of the games are not fun to watch anymore, even if the Celtics win Game 4. I think the Celtics coach was simply outcoached by Spoelstra because we know that the Celtics' roster is better than the Miami Heat's, which includes a lot of undrafted players.

The final result of game 3 is 102-128, home team won by 26 points.

Yeah, so much. Because all my player props and bet builders didn't hit their mark. With all the starts sitting, there's no way they will add more to their stats. Butler and Adebayo benched for the whole 4th quarter and so did the Celtics. Sad.

Anyway, 2/3 is not that bad.

The first half was a bit fun and I thought the Celtics will adjust and try to close the gap but sadly, they are forcing distance shots which I think was not wise at all. I wish Coach Joe Mazzulla tried to stop his team from doing all that reckless shots. They may be open but when you are trying to return from a big lead, a sure deuce will always be the best choice of all.
Gabe Vincent is the star player of the night, I do like someone stepping up again for the Miami Heat and Duncan Robinson also has his shining moments especially his passing skills improved.

In the Lakers vs Nuggets Game 4, the Lakers are still the favorites to win, but the spread is now only -3, down from the previous -5.5 in Game 3.

The Nuggets have the opportunity to end the series tomorrow, but let's see if the Lakers can change the momentum and secure a win on their home court. Even if the Lakers win Game 4, they will face a tougher battle on the Nuggets' home court. If the Nuggets end the series in 5 games, they will be able to celebrate at home. So, what are your speculations for this game?

There is chance for the Heat to also get a sweep against Boston Celtics so, by all means possible I don't think the Denver Nuggets would want to deprive themselves of the extra rest or give the Miami Heat a few days extra days to catch their breath and get proper resting and conditioning.

I'm going to likely a have parlay on both games to end up as a sweep, regardless of what the media or bookies says.

Slightly crazy that the Lakers are down 3-0 to the Nuggets but for whatever reason the lakers are the favorite to win tonight. I know as a gambler you can’t pass on those sorts of odds but I don’t think this Lakers team is going to let their season end by being swept at home. We’ll see. Plus, they’re saying Mo Bamba will play tonight and make a difference. I have my doubts but I would feel safe betting LeBron to win to protect his legacy tonight.

I agree. Why would the Denver Nuggets give the Lakers a chance to win if they are already able to bag the series next game, although I think that they might let the Lakers do their thing so that they can finish the whole series in their home but again, they surely want some more rest before the Finals will commence because even if they seem to defeat the latter easily, the Lakers are actually not that easy to defeat as putting a consistent pressure towards Lebron and AD was never an easy task, let alone guarding the remaining roster.

As for the Eastern Conference, we might see the same thing because not to underestimate the Celtics, they surely do not show towards the Heat the reason why they are the #2. Sadly, that's their limit because if the Heat defeated the #1 then what's keeping them from defeating the #2, right? Well, both the Lakers and Celtics are on the verge of being swept now and I honestly did not expect to see these scenario in the Conference Finals.

After the Golden State Warriors lost to the Lakers I was on Hiatus not posting here, but seeing this if the Golden State Warriors win against the Lakers they will surely get the same fate as the Los Angeles Lakers, the Denver Nuggets is on a different league, in my opinion, and looking  at the stats the referee can not do anything even though the free throw deficit is too high for the Lakers it is still happening even in this game but the Denver Nuggets is just a monster but many are still believing that the Lakers can pull through this,

Slightly crazy that the Lakers are down 3-0 to the Nuggets but for whatever reason the lakers are the favorite to win tonight.

actually, I am moving on with Golden State losing the playoffs, but I can not help it, Go Golden Nuggets! Hahaha Just joking I really don't do band-wagon, I am now looking forward to next season actually but seeing how the Lakers are struggling at the hands of the Nuggets it is really crazy, even the free throw deficit can not do anything I really think that the Lakers can somehow make a difference when Mo Bamba played, the Truth is I really want Lebron James to get that 5th ring, and to get that legacy he wants

[wheelz1200]

I'm all in on Denver for a 4 game sweep.  I just said in another thread I will be betting Celtics in game 4 because It's hard to sweep.  But in this one they just can't stop jokic and none of the backcourt can hang with Murray.  I'm taking the odds and taking the money line on Denver.

Good luck everyone.

I also agree with you, I don't see the Celtics being able to reverse this current scenario, in the 3 games they lost they didn't lose by a small difference in points, if we were talking about a difference of 2 or 1 point I could even say that they were balanced but the reality is that in the first two games at least the difference in points was 6 points, and in the last game they were massacred, I doubt very much that the Celtics will have the mental form to win in the fourth game, the team will be demoralized, because in addition to needing to win 4 consecutive games which is almost mission impossible, they were crushed by the opponent, surely the Celtics will lose in game 4


I still don't understand why the bookmakers are giving the lakers an advantage, it looks like the lakers still have a chance to change the current scenario, although in terms of mathematics it was possible, but history shows that no one has achieved this, the morale of the players when there is nothing left to fight and it is very low, it is difficult for a professional and experienced player who has seen these playoffs many times knows that in this type of situation it is impossible to reverse even if it is mathematically possible, but on the field the player knows that he will not be able to and everything gets worse because the opponent is very strong, I predict a defeat for the lakers

I understand that Nuggets will definitely work hard to win, because of the rest period and if Heat wins, they will rest while Nuggets keep playing and that will be bad for them. But it is not easy to sweep Lakers neither, Lebron will try to carry the team as much as he possibly can with whatever he has, and that's going to end up being a tough situation.

I understand that it will not be a simple situation and I understand that it will take time for him to do that, it is not going to be easy for him and maybe he will fail and Lakers will lose. But, we all know Lebron won't want to be swept, at least one more game, even if the series end in 5. After that I am sure that we are going to start seeing the finals as Nuggets vs Heat for sure, there is no doubt about that.

...  I really think that the Lakers can somehow make a difference when Mo Bamba played, the Truth is I really want Lebron James to get that 5th ring, and to get that legacy he wants

I do not think Lebron still has it to get another ring. It is already evident in the last 3 games that he cannot lead the team anymore. He has missed a lot of crunch shots and free layups. The worst is the open fancy dunk that he tried but lost the ball on the way up. He is not 100 percent on defense and his offense can be easily checked by younger defenders. He still plays great at his age, but I do not think it is enough especially if he is eating a big chunk of the team's money. Maybe if he is relegated to the third option and has great teammates that can stay healthy, he can still win a ring.

I still don't understand why the bookmakers are giving the lakers an advantage, it looks like the lakers still have a chance to change the current scenario, although in terms of mathematics it was possible, but history shows that no one has achieved this, the morale of the players when there is nothing left to fight and it is very low, it is difficult for a professional and experienced player who has seen these playoffs many times knows that in this type of situation it is impossible to reverse even if it is mathematically possible, but on the field the player knows that he will not be able to and everything gets worse because the opponent is very strong, I predict a defeat for the lakers

It is almost impossible to win the series but it is always possible to still get 1 win out of this series. The Nuggets may want to finish the series in their home and give the Lakers a gentleman's sweep. I think that is pretty much possible. And the Lakers will not probably give up so easily and will try to win this game on their turf. I understand why bookies are still taking the Lakers as the favorite in this game. This pattern happens all the time and it could be the same with the Nuggets.

I do not see any large advantage of the Heat if the Nuggets end it in game 5. There is probably a week before the Finals start anyway, so it is still enough time for both teams to rest, develop a strategy, and practice.


I am taking the Los Angeles Lakers to win the game later even though they are at a very deep disadvantage. Talent-wise, they have what it takes to win against the Nuggets.

[ralle14]

The Lakers usually keep it close for the first three quarters, so I understand why the bookies have them as the favorites, but they continue to slip up in the fourth quarter.

I'm ready for Denver to close this series, and my timing is so bad the odds on the Nuggets moved even further (from 2.30 to 2.38) after I placed my bet.

Good luck, bro. The Lakers don't want to be embarrassed in front of the crowd, but you know the Nuggets are very consistent. Even if the refs are not always in their favor, they keep working hard and sticking to their system. You're right, the Lakers are usually strong in the 1st to 3rd quarters but struggle when it comes to closing the game. So, if the game remains close, we will likely see the Lakers ending their series today.

Lakers have made some decent rotation to give them a better chance, Dennis Schroder getting the start ahead of D'Angelo Russell and also Rui Hachimura who has had some great minutes off the bench in this series for the Lakers also getting the nod ahead of Vanderbilt, I think the Lakers could get a win here, if they managed to retain this line for most of the game and don't get into foul troubles, the early signs have been good so far for them.

The Lakers are leading, and James is off to a great start. However, it's still too early to conclude that the Lakers will win this game. Their lack of consistency throughout the series is the reason they are down 0-3. In order for them to secure a victory, they need an exceptional performance from LeBron James and must find a way to contain the Nuggets' impressive 3-point shooting.

So far, the Lakers have been shooting well from the 3-point area, primarily led by LeBron James. Based on their performance, it seems like they have had a good start and there is a possibility of ending the first half strongly. However, in terms of consistency, it is crucial for them to maintain the same level of intensity in order to secure a victory in the series. On another note, it is worth mentioning that Thompson has already made appearances in this series. It is my first time seeing him in a Lakers uniform.

Forgot to post this earlier. Gambled on the sweep at the start of the game and then gambled harder on the comeback down by 15 at halftime. 8-1 odds on the halftime bet. GOOD JOB DENVER!!!!

Forgot to post as well but here's my bet that got my win tonight:
Most 3 points shot scored Denver -2.50 @2.00 Win
Nikola Jokic over 21.5 @1.75 Win
LeBron James over 25.5 @1.80 Win
Quarter 3 Handicap Denver -2.5 @1.95 Win
Quarter 1 Handicap Lakers -3.5 @2.00 Win
Quarter 1 Over/Under Under 57.5 @1.86 Lost

Looks like the Heat will beat the Celtics tomorrow too, Celtics ball movement isn't the team we see on the last year. I think the view counts will not be great this time for the NBA, the Lakers as one of the favorites has been eliminated and looks like the Celtics too. I think I'll pass the game for tomorrow and wait for the NBA Finals, how about putting moneyline onto Heat? What's your opinion?

[danherbias07]

Congratulations @ralle14, @wheelz1200, and a big win @yahoo62278. Wow!!! 
When did you get that @7.50? Were those the starting odds?
I caught the game in 2nd half and this is what I got.


That was some crazy game and how I wish all the games were that close. Well, Lebron cannot argue with the last play, that's all ball that was being held by Jamal Murray unlike what happened against Tatum with his final layup.
Congratulations to the Denver Nuggets. First Conference championship, Nikola Jokic is the Conference MVP. Four more wins if they want the bigger picture. 
It's sad to see the Lakers go down but they actually did pretty well in this season. From being discussed as having no chance to enter the playoffs, to defeating the number 2 Grizzlies and then the former champions Golden State Warriors. I think what the management did with their roster is a big success and now they have players who can lead the team like Austin Reaves.

I decided to bet a little more at halftime with Denver down 15. Denver already came back from 20 once so I felt it was a good gamble.

I'm gonna put some money on the Heat to finish off the Celtics. It's going to be the 1st time ever 2 teams swept in the conference finals.

You made the right decision, so congratulations to you. It seems like LeBron ran out of gas in the second half after taking charge of the scoring in the first half. The Nuggets remained composed and disciplined despite being down by a significant margin. It was a close game in the fourth quarter, but Denver proved to be smart enough and knew how to win in close games. It's quite rare to see such opportunities, and they usually arise in live betting, where there's a higher chance of winning if you're actually watching the game.

Nuggets are finally in the NBA Finals, it's their first time, and let's see if they'll continue the success by winning the championship.
