Do you guys think the Knicks will end the series today?

We have 2 games later. Here are my picks.

Philadelphia 76ers - New York Knicks - New York Knicks (-1.5) @1.92 - Yes, I think this will be over. They can go home and take a rest while waiting for their next opponent.

Minnesota Timberwolves - San Antonio Spurs - San Antonio Spurs (-4.5) @1.86 - The Wolves did a great job keeping the game close in Game 2, but closing the game with a win is very important, and the foul trouble is actually their big problem.

Good luck, everyone!

Do you guys think the Knicks will end the series today?

I was thinking of that a while ago that they might end the series tonight and as per watching it right now, they're on the Q2 and the Knicks are on the lead. But, I skipped that bet and went for the Spurs and Wolves. A money line bet as usual for me and this is a conservative one since my last bet with the Pistons has lost.

The series has ended and it was a sweep for the Knicks as they blew out once again the Sixers. Personally, i have not expected this kind of an outcome because for me the Sixers has the chance to give a good fight to the Knicks after they defeated the Celtics but it was a fluke hehe.

The series between the Spurs and the Wolves is becoming exciting, seems like the Wolves have a chance to take game 4 as Wemby has been ejected in the game after receiving a Flagrant 2 for elbowing Naz Reid, big blow for the Spurs. Have placed a bet for the Wolves after that incident and hoping that they could sustain this lead and win the game.

I was making a brain fart bet today. 3min before the end of the Wolfes vs Spurs game the Wolfes were up 100:99. I had a free bet at a site and thought the 2.20 odds on the Spurs had a lot of value. So I made the bet.

Literally 10 seconds later I got to youtube and so this:



After that I didn't even bother to follow the last 3 minutes since I knew I messed up.

If Wemby wasn't ejected, I guess that it's a different story by then. My bet lost but that's part of betting and it's not that much lead done by the Timberwolves. Tuesday night, we'll see if that's a handicap or the Timberwolves will make it as their lead in that next game. I'll still bet for the Spurs, in Wemby I trust but not today, he has disappointed a lot of Spurs money line for sure.

Of course was watching this game since I had placed a longshot bet on the underdogs and it was a combo bet with over on points, so didn't expect it to win.
But low and behold this ejection happened early on in the game where Victor only had 4 points and 4 rebounds at that point.
So the bet was more than likely to hit and it did.

1 of 2.

Damn it! Wemby being thrown out for flagrant 2 was a big one! It could've been a good day for me with a perfect bet.

Anyway, we have 2 games later. Here are my picks.

Cleveland Cavaliers - Detroit Pistons - Detroit Pistons (-3.5) @2.85 - Yeah. Another greedy bet. I don't know why, but I surely trust the Pistons with Cade going nuts on the offensive again.

Los Angeles Lakers - Oklahoma City Thunder - Los Angeles Lakers (11.5) @1.85 - A sweep 4-0 will be a bad mark for Lebron James. I don't think that will happen. But just to be sure, I am taking that +11.

Good luck, everyone!

I'm looking forward to OKC vs LA Lakers tomorrow.
I will be betting against you. I went with the OKC Thunder -11.5. I'm done with LA Lakers already, I am  expecting a swept on their home.

[joeperry]

Tomorrow's the match of Lakers and OKC, do you think they would be able to beat the OKC on their home court? If I am not mistaken, in NBA history there's no team that came back from 0-3, I know that they won't be able to beat the OKC but there might be a chance if they could win this one and if they came at 3-1, maybe they can redo the 2016 Cavs where they beat the Warriors from 3-1. I know that it would be unlikely and honestly I'm not placing bet on LAL vs OKC since I'm not sure what would be the result but I would definitely watch it since I don't think Lakers would just accept their defeat without a fight and it's their home court too.

Did not happen as the Oklahoma City Thunder swept the Los Angeles Lakers in a clean series.
Couldn't watch the game last night but many were saying it could of went to overtime and the 115-110 score line did look quite tight.
What I think will happen for the Lakers is Lebron probably going to announce his retirement and pass the mantle on to his son Bronny,
Because getting shutout in the playoffs like that the team does need some restructuring for next season with Doncic, Reaves and Smart.

For this other game, the Cleveland Cavs fended off Detroit Pistons so to have the series tied at two a piece.

That is the best decision to make because his dominance is already over. The league is now being dominated by younger players. Enough already, he has achieved so much in basketball and he is already a Hall of Famer for sure. There is nothing more he needs to prove.

OKC is just too good for the Lakers. Even if the calls were favoring the Lakers in that game, OKC still found a way to win. That only shows how strong they are as a team, and how far the Lakers are now from being a real championship contender.

For this other game, the Cleveland Cavs fended off Detroit Pistons so to have the series tied at two a piece.

That was probably the best game of the Cavaliers in this series, and now things are getting really interesting. They finally showed the kind of response people were waiting for. If they can keep that same energy, defense, and confidence, then this series is far from over. I really hope we see a Game 7 here, because this matchup is starting to look more balanced now. The Pistons looked in control early in the series, but the Cavaliers are slowly proving that they can still fight back.

[danherbias07]

1 of 2 again. The Cavs tied the series. I really thought the Pistons could get the 3-1.

Anyway, I was just right about taking that +11.5 for the Lakers. They tried to win it, but the OKC is just too much offensively.

There's only 1 game for later. Here is my pick.

San Antonio Spurs - Minnesota Timberwolves - San Antonio Spurs (-10.5) @1.93 - Fox is questionable, but with that spread, I think he will play. Wemby was not suspended after the ejection, so I believe he will be there later.

Good luck, everyone!

Couldn't watch the game last night but many were saying it could of went to overtime and the 115-110 score line did look quite tight.

Didn't managed to watch the game until it's 4th quarter and I placed a bet when it's 81:74 and I saw that the Lakes were coming back as they already find their rhythm after Hachimura came back from 4 points in 1st half to 20+ on 2nd half and in 4th quarter where he made a 3 point and a foul where the LAL gets their lead but Holmgren is really strong at the center and offense and managed to take over the lead. Also, a couple of failed shots from Reaves and LBJ too, but it was a nice game and I think they gave it all.

[GreatArkansas]

De'Aaron Fox is questionable for tomorrow. I just want to win in this bet, I believed this will be a close match even Timberwolves will not win, but I was surprised about their previous match that they were still able to get a win and now already series tied, I'm placing small bet only for here. Odds is worth it.

This is the problem with live bets on the NBA, the tides can turn in an instant then your prediction is flattened within mere seconds. Whenever I place even quarter bets I always seem to lose those aswell. So no surprise, when someone says they lose these type of bets when they tell me.
The main take away from it would be that OKC are just too strong to bet against. That is all we can really say when it comes to the NBA playoffs.

Those are great odds and I will probably go in that direction when I place my bets prematch an hour before the game starts.
With Fox out the Spurs will be on a crutch yet again since De'Aaron was there go to guy when Victor was out of their last game early on.

I bet but the opposite -6.5 for the San Antonio Spurs. While Fox and Harper are questionable to play for tonight, I'll take a gamble on this one. Just quite conservative than yours but I hope that it's possible for both of us to win this, with these handicaps if my math is right?

The game is just starting. No changes in the starting lineups for either teams was announced.
De'Aaron Fox was in the run up and his ankle looked fine.
The odds on them didn't reflect him being questionable before the game either. Solid 1.25x odds for San Antonio while Minnesota were the ones that were jumping between 4.10-4.30x odds the entire day.

Took the +9.5 on the Timberwolves but now that Fox and Harper are playing I can see why they raised it to +10.5 for the point spread before the game started.

De'Aaron Fox is playing as well as Harper so literally the Spurs is complete in today's game but i will still have a trust in the Wolves to upset this young Spurs or make the game as close as possible. Last game was competitive till the end even the Spurs lost Wemby in the first half.

[GreatArkansas]

^ I'm already on a losing streak for the past few days.....

Here's to tomorrow, this series is really exciting, the Cleveland Cavaliers are playing well recently, no reason they were able to do 2-2 in this series. But my bias is the Detroit Pistons, and I want them to win this.

[danherbias07]

That was a fun game by the San Antonio Spurs. Like I said in the other thread, if Wemby is present, it will be difficult for the Wolves to win. Castle went nuts too with 8/11 FG. The dunks he made were also superb.
I won my bet and some more.


We have one game later. Here is my pick.
I am going to be greedy again.

Detroit Pistons - Cleveland Cavaliers - Detroit Pistons (-5.5) @2.12 - Some Sports news are blaming Cade for their loss in Game 4 due to turnovers. I say Mitchell found his zone, and he was unstoppable. That's it.

Good luck, everyone!
