A week of the NBA playoffs is in the books.
Some series are warming up and seem to have the opportunity to go the seven full games, while other series … well, they were approximately before they started.
The Thunder and the CAVS have flexed their respective muscles, since both upper seeds seem prepared to advance easily for the semifinals of the conference. In the West, the Clippers, Timberwolves and Warriors are lower seeds to their confrontations, but all managed to fight with the advantage of the court from the beginning, putting themselves in a position in which they advance if they can win their games at home.
In the East, a collision course of the Eastern Conference of the Cavaliers-Celts seems inevitable, since both teams seem a cut above their enemies of the conference.
With a full weekend of games ahead, let’s take a look at the action and try to find some bets that is worth doing.
“Loop In the correct series of 6 “, +1100 (Fanatics Sportsbook)
Bucks have been overcome thoroughly in the first two games in this series, since they not only face a 0-2 deficit, but also face questions about the future of Giannis Antetokounmppo star. While the “Greek monster” could be a hot topic for commercial conversations this summer, perhaps he and his teammates can delay the conversations gathering in this series.
Despite the series deficit, not everything is bad for bucks. They obtained their other star, Damian Lillard, back from a blood clot for game 2. Meanwhile, the Pacers have no capacity to stop Antetokounmpo, since he averages 34.5 points per game. Returning home to Milwaukee for games 3 and 4 with a healthy complement to players could be the opportunity for even this.
With 11-1 likely to win in six games (a $ 10 commitment pays $ 110), this is justificially a long shooting query that the Bucks would need to win four in a row. However, with three of those four at home, I think the Bucks will be heard in this series, and I will bite the potential payment of 11-1.
Rockets They extend +1.5 Games Series, -130 (Drafting Sports Librilla)
Upon arriving at the playoffs, I thought that the rockets that obtained 1.5 games (we won our bet if the Rockets won the series or if the series goes seven games) was the best way to attack this series. After seeing how the first two games develop, I feel stronger in this position.
Despite losing the advantage of the homemade court (for now), the Rockets showed that they have some advantages in this series. The second Houston sown has surpassed the Warriors 99-69 in the first two games, collecting 33 total offensive rebounds. Not only is there a great advantage for the younger and more athletic rockets in the glass, but now they face a team of Warriors perhaps exhausted, after Jimmy Butler suffered a contusion of pelvis in game 2.
With the state of Butler in the future, and the rockets are more young and fresh legs and legs, obtaining 1.5 games here is still the play. Much of who wins this series could be the healthy that is Butler, and that is something we have just known until we see it again in action.
I hope the Rockets push the Warriors distance here, if they do not win the series.
