There are plenty of NBA matches to bet on this week, and as usual, has prepared his betting tips for three of Thursday morning’s matches. Feel free to add his tips to your bet slip.
27 April 01:00 Cleveland Cavaliers v New York Knicks
This has been an interesting series in terms of the over and under because the under has been the bet to go for in all 4 games played. Not once in 4 games played has the over went over 200, the under will be the bet to go for here. This series has been all about the defense and neither team is averaging 100 ppg. Don’t overthink this one, take the under.
27 April 01:30 Memphis Grizzlies v LA Lakers
The Lakers are good underdogs to take here, the Grizzlies have pressure to win this game and they know if they lose they’re out. The Grizzlies have been known to trash-talk a lot of teams and players and one of those teams is the Lakers and one of those players is Lebron James. Lebron James is averaging 24 ppg and is averaging the most rebounds per game during this post-season. Last game he had to show up late for the Lakers to win in overtime but the value lies with the Lakers here, they will put up a fight making it difficult for Memphis, to take the spread.
27 April 04:00 Sacramento Kings v Golden State Warriors
De’Aaron Fox said he’ll likely play Wednesday and with that info, we have to take the Kings here. The Kings have been playing exceptional defense during the post-season, unlike the Warriors who have been struggling in the paint and have been forcing a lot of turnovers. They have struggled to guard players like Fox and Sabonis and this duo could give them headaches here. The Warriors do not play well away, they are 0-2 in the playoffs and were below 500 during the regular season, take the Kings with the spread.
