NBA: Miami Heat - Charlotte Hornets

Recommendation: Heat – 4

Odds: 1.869

Bookmaker: Pinnaclesports / Sportmarket


My pick will hardly surprise you. I expected some 2-3 points bigger spread here and willingly take this one.

Teams split season series 2-2, each winning one home and one road game. This is a play-off game though and as stated previously, experience makes a great deal of the winning process, not pure skills only. That’s exactly why Raptors failed again last night (go Pacers!) and I see Hornets’ in just the same situation. Kemba Walker had an excellent regular season but all the pressure is now on his shoulders and everybody expects him to lead his team. Easier said than done when you play against a future Hall of Famer in Dwayne and a pesky lightning like Goran The Dragon J Raptors analogy again, DeRozan and Kyle Lowry failed to accept that mental challenge yesterday, and they’re both better players than Kemba (talking of pure skillset).

Batum will play through a twisted ankle and I hope this will slow him down on the offensive end. Charlotte really need his boost from 3-point line and his smooth passing abilities. Heat should definitely win the war in the paint too, Hassan / Amare have clear advantage over Zeller / Jefferson on both ends of the floor.

All in all, Heat just need Dwayne plus at least one among Dragic / Joe Johnson to bring their average numbers in scoring in order to secure the win. Great probability to happen actually because of the experience we’ve been talking about. Actually this is the main reason I decided to skip trying UNDER 200 points as a second bet here. They’ve passed this line only once in the four regular season games and it really seems a bit high for the opening game of the series. I guess oddsmakers are cautious with Heat catching fire and/or Goran – Kemba start outrunning each other.

The prop bets, Dwayne to score over 20.5 points at around 2.10 looks like a nice thing. Dwayne will get Spoelstra’s confidence to shoot all the clutch possessions and will probably receive quite a few trips to the foul line too

Dwayne Wade got better when Lebron quits Miami. Dwayne Wade can play more of his move than before since his the Top star of the Heats. It's a nice team to bet on and since the Heat are much more stronger can put your money on it.

NBA: Houston Rockets - Golden State Warriors

Recommendation: GSW - 5

Odds: 1.909

Bookmaker: Pinnaclesports / Sportmarket


I like this play even with the uncertainty around Steph Curry. Watching him practicing on Houston’s court, making 3-pointer after 3-pointer, everything seemed completely OK with him by the way. If he plays, it will be a big bonus obviously, but this spread (-5 – 6 points) is more like Rockets will ‘’only’’ have to do with Curry-less Warriors. It should still be a double digit win, or at least 7-8 points with the late possession foul calls.

This will be arguably the first case in history when Charles Barkley side with GSW in his prognosis. Sir Charles completely scratched Houston’s chances for even one win in the series, and I tend to agree with him. Rockets are obviously falling apart, Dwight will have a new home in the next season, and even staying Harden is not too interested in this series.

GSW at the other hand, and especially Steve Kerr, would love to sweep the Rockets and have a nice rest for Curry’s ankle and the rest of the starters of course. Their next opponent, Clippers most likely, will be much tougher, so any additional day of rest is of high value indeed

That is a good recommendation choosing Golden State Warriors over Houston Rockets. But Steph Curry has an injury and this would make me want to reconsider Houston Rockets. It would be good if GSW would win this round over Rockets.

Who do you guys have winning the OKC vs Spurs series? I've got the Thunder to win in 7.

I got Spurs in 7 - I can't see the Thunder closing it out.

My money won't ever be going against the Warriors though if Curry is hitting like this (http://punterproblems.com/warriors-trump-trailblazers-win-series/)!

I could not believe it the my bet on spurs lost. Now it's Curry time vs OKC and OKC is on the lead. I am now thinking I should put my money on them.

Just to add thinking Miami would be on the finals is also a big mistake. Man so much unexpected happening at the Finals. I think this will be CLE vs GSW on the finals.

No wonder GSW is the favorite. They are trying to defend their title and what to accomplish a back to back champion. But we will see what Lebron can do about it. My bet will be on GSW for game 1.

GSW is on the lead 2-1 but since game 4 is at Cleveland Lebron might be heating up. The I expecting it Cleveland would also win this one given the performance they show on game 3. But in the end of this Finals GSW will still win together with my winning money.

Yes even GSW lost the Championship it still a great game. Lebron just made his own legacy but pulling his team from a 3-1 to win and be the Champion. All I can say is Game 7 is their best game in their series.

one more sensational news for GSW! Ray Allen can go to Warriors and there will be fantastic splash-trio!
But CaVs could sign D. Wade and this could be the great answer!

what a sensational transfer for Chicago Bulls! D. Wade for 2 seasons ( $47,5 M ). Rondo- Butler - Wade ! you know what, Pau Gasol can be very dissapointed with his moving to San Antonio Spurs!

Tim Duncan retires... One more legend, one more BIG player, who played all his career in San Antonio Spurs - 19 years. He didn't go for money to other clubs, he just calmly were doing his work! 5 champions rings like Kobe Bryant. So sad that we will not see their playing again. Who will be next - Garnett, Carter?
pity :(

Manu Ginobili will continue playing until the end with the Spurs. Money cant buy the loyalty of Manu with Spurs. I'm seeing he will only play for a couple of years before saying goodbye to NBA.

4-year contract for young CJ McCollum - $ 106M !
McCollum averaged 20.8 points (44.8% FG, 41.7% 3PT, 82.7% FT), 3.2 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.21 steals and 34.8 minutes in 80 games (all starts) last season for Trail Blazers.

They will have the great and bright future with Clarkson , Russell and Ingram. But i understand Derozan decision. Move from team who has opportunity to play in conference final to team , which suffered last 2 years.

Michael Jordan needed to complete a shooting drill without missing three shots.
If MJ missed three shots, the entire camp would get a free pair of Jordans sneakers. But the greatness of basketball scored all the jump shots and broke all of kid's hearts :o

Who needs more money if you will have a champions ring. Becoming a champion will be one of your greatest legacy it wont disappear unlike money. It is priceless that's why Lebron join the Heats just to be a champion.
