The NBA Playoffs are heating up, and every game counts as teams battle for a spot in the next round. With momentum shifting and key players stepping up, finding the right angles for your bets can be the difference between cashing in and coming up short. Today, we’re focusing on two matchups that have strong trends and compelling narratives.
Yesterday, we went 1 for 2.
We successfully covered the UNDER of 228.5 in the Indiana Pacers at Cleveland Cavaliers game. The Pacers secured a 114-105 win in Game 5, with Cleveland taking an early lead but Indiana’s relentless pace ultimately wearing them down.
However, we missed on the OVER of 220.5 in the Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Denver Nuggets game. Despite a stellar 31-point performance from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the Thunder’s 112-105 win just wasn’t enough to push the total over the line.
Now, let’s jump into today’s picks:
-
New York Knicks at Boston Celtics – We’re looking at the OVER to cover the 207.5 total. Boston has gone OVER in 5 of their last 7 games played on a Wednesday. With both teams finding offensive rhythm and the Knicks pushing the pace, we’re projecting the total to hit around 221.
-
Golden State Warriors at Minnesota Timberwolves – We’re also taking the OVER to cover the 202.5 total. Golden State has gone OVER in 7 of their last 10 road games against Minnesota. Minnesota has also gone OVER in 6 of their last 9 Wednesday games, making this a strong play.
