Tomorrow promises two exciting basketball games that offer very different betting odds.
One is a grand finale that will determine the playoff journey of two teams. The other is an opener to an intriguing playoff series.
Both teams are worthy of free bets, but the question is this: which teams should you support?
Milwaukee Bucks @ Boston Celtics (April 29, 9:00 GMT +8)
This finale is something that basketball fans were (kind of) wishing for. It’s an ideal talking point when it comes to the conversation between star-driven basketball and team ball.
Giannis Antetokounmpo had an unbelievable Game 6, where his 31 points and 14 rebounds helped force a do-or-die game away. Save his rather quiet performance in Game 5, the Greek Freak has put pressure on the Boston defence time and time again.
Boston countered his advances with balanced team ball. While Jaylen Brown takes the lead on the scoring front, the rest of the starters are scoring in double digits. Eric Bledsoe better guard Terry Rozier well, or Boston could be the ones walking towards the second round.
The TD Garden is the worst place to win a Game 7 away, so the best bet to make is Boston -4.50 @ 1.95.
New Orleans Pelicans @ Golden State Warriors (April 29, 11:30 GMT +8)
The Pelicans can actually rattle the Warriors’ hopes for a fourth consecutive Finals trip if they steal the first game here.
New Orleans are playing some fantastic basketball behind Anthony Davis’ dominating presence, Jrue Holiday’s strong shooting, Nikola Mirotic’s consistent performance, and Rajon Rondo’s return to his Celtic form. Their play style is a perfect match for a Warriors squad that doesn’t have a true big man to protect the paint.
Things will change for the Dubs when they get Stephen Curry back. Steve Kerr will now have multiple scoring threats. Add in Klay Thompson and Draymond Green’s strong performances during their series against the Spurs, and we have a huge problem for the Pelicans.
While there’s no immediate answer to Durant, Rondo’s current form could well limit Curry’s shot attempts. While the Warriors will still likely win the first game, I don’t think the score will be as blown out as their previous games. New Orleans +8.50 @ 2.03 is a steal if I do say so myself.
