Your NBA Champion this season?

[danherbias07]

Andrew Wiggins could also be the X factor in game 6, but I'm hoping that finally Klay will have a big game because we call him "GAME 6 KLAY", if that will happen, this series will be over and the Warriors will win in 6.

Oh, I totally forgot about that. Game 6 Klay.
Who knows? We may see him bring more confidence in shooting the threes and also some accuracy. But even if he didn't bring that, I bet someone will step up their game again just like how Wiggins did. It could be Poole or Otto Porter Jr., who we know have their highlights in many different games.
Klay's defense contribution though is much needed even if he is off the 3-point line.

He still has some good shooting form in the last 2 games, specially in game 4 wherein he came up clutch. When Smart hits a 3, he came back without any hesitation and hit it. And that will be the closest game 6 Klay (maybe ). But yes, who knows, maybe he really wanted to make a huge impact and specially in a close out game, he will again come in with those huge 3, maybe a dagger to close out the Celtics and win the championships.

Yeah, and Maslate actually opened up an idea for an addition to my bets.
If this is a possible end of NBA for this season I will risk a good amount for Klay Thompson for the number of 3-point field goals he will make.  He will probably be more confident as he knows he had a history of making some good shots during this event. (Game 6)
I just wish the props for him at making three's will be open early because last time at Game 5 it is not available at 8 hours before the game starts.

I don't like it because it means Warriors are losing game 5 and they will lose in the last game, it's not fun to watch.

You don't have to like it because the Warriors will not lose game 5, mark my words, I will bet my life savings for the Warriors in game 5 (KIDDING!). But seriously, this is the best spot to back the Warriors as they are back home and their chance to win at home is bigger than in the road.

Actually, both of them have the equal chances of winning the Game 5 later. It doesn't matter whether they play at Chase Center or TD Garden, the chances are still equal as both teams have won in both road and home games. Of course, that's not where we decide where to bet and experience will always matter and the Warriors have that. I might bet live games as I'm still undecided where should I bet because neither have won 2 games straight.

Yes that is correct but Boston really have a team that could deserve a title. GSW had it's time on my opinion and NBA needs a new fresh champ as non USA fans are kinda bored to see GSW or Lakers as champions because I've asked some guys and that was the answer. Now , back to reality a little , the best team should always win , no matter how much we will dislike that , we must be fair play and cheer for the champion.

Game 5 will be a tricky one but I just placed a bet on Celtic to win the game with GSW taking the 1st half and Curry not scoring more than 30 points... . Also , I have a feeling that whoever gonna win this game , will end up as a favorite to take it all because I can't see Celtic coming back if they loose tonight but I also cannot see GSW winning the series anymore if they lose on home court...

Well, if we will be the ones to decide who will win the title this season then for sure I would also vote for the Boston Celtics as they have been through ups and downs this season but they managed to adjust more to be more competent along the other teams in the league that's why they managed to be in the Finals because of their impressive performance. Surely nobody have expected that they could sweep the Brooklyn Nets in the 1st round and then defeat the defending champion which is Milwaukee Bucks, those feat alone makes them to deserve the championship.

But we know that is not how the NBA works as they should also play along the top teams in the league, all I can say is that they have a chance but it seems it's much lesser now because they need to clean up the last 2 games.

Warriors are highly likely the champs and could be done in 6 games. They are a better team in pretty much all aspects. Offense, defense, bench players, player rotations, better coach. The only thing working for the Celtics right now is that they'll be home for the next game. The crowd could play a part into the game.

[Russlenat]

Andrew Wiggins could also be the X factor in game 6, but I'm hoping that finally Klay will have a big game because we call him "GAME 6 KLAY", if that will happen, this series will be over and the Warriors will win in 6.

Oh, I totally forgot about that. Game 6 Klay.

Klay's defense contribution though is much needed even if he is off the 3-point line.

All of them have some chance to step up because Steve Kerr rotates his players properly to maintain enough rest for his key players. Game 6 Klay is also totally possible as he's showing some signs in Game 5 that he is back in his usual rhythm, so who knows he might be the key for the team to claim the championship this year. Wiggins and Curry are also competitive enough to give a hard time to the Celtics and make them confuse whom to be defended more as the Warriors roster are capable shooting inside and outside, there's no hiding when it comes to them.

As i said in other thread if Boston cant win in the game five with a Curry in 0 of 9 in 3 points shoots...... man its really uphill for they.

If Golden State its the champion this can be one of the worst champion i remember in the last years.

Lol, what do you mean worst champion? they have been in this position before, they have the greatest shooter of all time and then you call them worst champion? They are the number 3 seed in the West going into the finals, so they are pretty solid. It's not like they are the 6-8 seed and beat teams that are not healthy, maybe except for the Memphis series wherein Ja Morant is injured by they are extended by the Grizzlies to 6 games .

I guess the Warriors are going to end the series in 6 games. Most of us predicted that they will be in like 4-1 or 4-2 so maybe some of us got the correct scores then.

I don't know but I think it would be crazy to call the Golden State Warriors as the worst champion. This season is back to 82 regular games. Teams were playing at home and at the road. Before someone questions this season's championship legitimacy, they need to look back first the previous two pandemic seasons and even Toronto Raptors lucky championship win over an undermanned Warriors team.

I am also expecting the Warriors to win tomorrow. And crown Steph as MVP.

I was also puzzled and confused a bit on what he's saying, frankly, I really think he/she is not updated about the happenings this season especially in the past few years as he/she didn't even know that the Warriors have been a back-to-back champion few years back. Anyway, back to the topic, the Warriors should do everything to claim the championship title in Game 6 later. It will be sure as a tough job because the Celtics are also not moving an inch back to have the Warriors their way, so ofcourse they will also do everything and utilize what they're known for to have a Game 7.

Surely the Warriors got the advantage in this series even if the game will be held at the Gard later on, they're now down to the best of 3 games and they got the first game in their possession but they shouldn't be complacent as they still have to win one more game and that game will be sure hard. They got almost all aspects needed to win the game and the only thing left is to execute it.

I'm hoping for another way around. I want the series to extend to Game 7.

Good to see the Finals will end in the final series for much better entertainment for us viewers. Golden State Warriors might finish the series tonight but the Boston Celtics obviously don't want to end their chances for the champion too. Bookies heavily favored the Boston Celtics tonight to win the game.

Not a basis that they will win tonight but it means bookies see something for the Celtics why they shouldn't be considered as an underdog tonight.

Bostin Celtics will win in Game 6 but the Golden State Warriors will end it on Game 7.

Me too.  Ultimately as a knick fan nothing worse I can see than Boston winning the chip again, but I want to see a game 7.  Everything on the floor, 1 game to decide all.  4 quarters of greatness.  Cmon celts make it happen!

We are on the same expectations tonight. I'm also with the Boston Celtics to win the game and extend the series to Game 7. Celtics won't just give up and they will put their very best into this game. Warriors might feel relaxed tonight and won't be aggressive. I know the Warriors just secured Game 5 so that they won't be pressured to win in Game 6.

Warriors like to have a championship at their home court. They will not do their 100% tonight and will just allow the Celtics to show their best. If the Celtics didn't take advantage of that, then goodbye to them.

I even hoping that Celtics might upset the Warriors in Game 7. There's still chance!

The series is now over, Warriors made sure that there's no more game 7 as they have a very dominant performance in game 6. Nice game by the Celtics, they tried their best but the Warriors championship experience was very evidence in the game, better luck next season.

[Sanitough]

I looked at the OP's post, the odds of the Warriors that time was;

4- Warriors >8.50

Whoever won that kind of odds is a lucky better, congratulations to you, you also deserve to celebrate because you trusted the Warriors when they were not the favorite to win the championship.

I think OP has won it too, you can see on the thread he made, that he posted a betslip for the Warriors to win the championship.

Congrats @OP, big win, everyone here is happy for sure as Warriors ML in game 4 was good.

Bostin Celtics will win in Game 6 but the Golden State Warriors will end it on Game 7.

Unfortunately, that's not what happened earlier because the Golden State Warriors was really committed to close the series and they've won by 13 points in gap. It was a tough game as the Celtics tried to answer the shots made by the Warriors but they can't handle everything while trying to defend those shots, since the 1st half the Warriors had made it clear that the game will belong to their possession.

It would be much more fun and entertaining if they can extend it to Game 7 but the Warriors chose to avoid that situation as they could be at risky situation. Sure it's not fun claiming the title at road but that win certainly relaxed them.

[agustina2]

Unfortunately, that's not what happened earlier because the Golden State Warriors was really committed to close the series and they've won by 13 points in gap.

I even think that Boston Celtics has a good start as if I remember they got the lead as much as 10 in the early minutes. But they didn't maintained it as the Golden State Warriors becomes better at their shooting field goals. It's just on 2nd Quarter where Warriors now extend the big lead and Celtics has no answer at those continous shooting streak by the Warriors.

Warriors never allow Celtics to close the gap and in the end, they now finally sealed the Championship. Boston Celtics should be proud of themselves as they did a great job to experience the Finals as all first-timers. They can come back strong for the next seasons.

21-0 run, they said this hasn't been seen in an NBA finals for the last 50 years. The run started late in the first quarter and at the first half of the second. And that's what the Warriors just needed, put a good separation going into third.

Warriors never allow Celtics to close the gap and in the end, they now finally sealed the Championship. Boston Celtics should be proud of themselves as they did a great job to experience the Finals as all first-timers. They can come back strong for the next seasons.

Actually the Celtics managed to cut the lead to as low as 7-8 in the 4th. But Curry keeps hitting those crucial 3 and even had one assists for Wiggins for a corner 3. And I think that was the dagger as the Celtics calls a timeout but it was over by that time.

That wasn't luck after all because the chance of Warriors getting into the playoffs and Finals was good. But at that time, it takes enough guts and courage to have that bet as it's still not that sure that they could really get in as the other teams in the league are also good. So, congratulations again OP for having a strong faith for the Golden State Warriors

Getting that odds really says OP has faith on the Warriors. Now that the Warriors have already won the championship again, they just proved that even without Durant, they can still win a championship, and Curry is the better player than Durant, so he deserves all the praise in the NBA.
