Mavs Spurs Game 7 Pick
20 seconds was all the stood between the San Antonio Spurs and a NBA championship last season. Having all summer to ponder what should’ve been, the Spurs championship hopes, once again, hangs in the balance of one game.
Looking to avenge a Game 7 loss to the Mavericks from 2006, the Spurs will have to defeat Dirk Nowitzki, who has never lost a Game 7 (4-0). Averaging 28 points and 14.8 rebounds in those games, don’t expect anything less from Nowitzki in this one. Not with his track record and not with the Hall of Fame career he’s had.
Nets Raptors Game 7 Pick
Brooklyn Nets vs. Toronto Raptors Game 7 Sunday 1:00 pm EST May 4, 2014 Line: Toronto Raptors -3 Neither franchise has ever won a Game 7. On Sunday afternoon, that’s going to change for either the Brooklyn Nets or Toronto Raptors. Now the veteran Nets, who lead wire-to-wire in their Game 6 victory, will have Read More
Grizzlies Thunder Game 7 Pick
Any notion about the reliability of Kevin Durant was put to rest after his Game 6 performance.
Having already survived one elimination game, the four-time NBA scoring champion will look to replicate his 36 points and 10-rebound performance in another must-win game. However this time, Durant and co. will be playing in front of their home crowd Saturday at Chesapeake Energy Arena.
Mavs Spurs Game 6 Picks
Let’s be real. The Dallas Mavericks never had a chance to win Game 5.
Coming oh so close in the second half, climbing within four points (98-94) after a Vince Carter 3-pointer with three minutes left, the Mavericks had an opportunity to inch even closer, and possibly seize control of this game, and maybe even take control of the series. But after Dirk Nowitzki, who was having his best game of the series, missed a wide-open jumpshot from the left baseline, Tony Parker’s 3-pointer on the ensuing possession put an end to that.
Grizzlies vs Thunder Game 6 Pick
Line: Oklahoma City -2.5
The Memphis Grizzlies aren’t supposed to be in this position.
Not after blowing a 17-point lead in Game 3 and a 20-point lead in Game 5. Not after connecting on only three shots in the entire fourth quarter of Game 5. And certainly not after Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol shot a combined 2-of-15 in the second half.
Nets vs Raptors Game 5 Pick
During the most pressure-packed moments of playoff basketball, it was the young Toronto Raptors who looked just fine. Rather than showing their veteran poise, the Nets were the ones fizzling at the finish line. The Raptors now have the Nets exactly where they want them. For the Raptors to advance, they must solve a simple formula. Win the remaining homes games of this series, and a date in the next round awaits.
Warriors vs Clippers Game 5 Pick
Golden State Warriors vs. Los Angeles Clippers Game 5 Tuesday 10:30 pm EST April 29, 2014 Line: Los Angeles Clippers -6 From the drama on the court, to the distractions off the court, the first round series between the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Clippers is now the focal point of controversy surrounding Read More
Grizzlies vs Thunder Game 5 Pick
The first Mr. October donned the Yankee pinstripes. After a memorable performance in Game 4 to tie this series at two games a piece, the City of Oklahoma might have found their own Mr. April.
Searching for the third piece to the puzzle since James Harden bolted for the Houston Rockets, needing someone to complement Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, the Thunder were as close to a panic situation as the they’ve been all season long.
Mavs vs Spurs Game 4 Pick
San Antonio Spurs vs. Dallas Mavericks Game 4 Monday 9:35 pm EST April 28, 2014 Line: San Antonio Spurs -4 There was “Vinsanity”, the 2000 Slam Dunk Contest and the lofty expectations that were never fulfilled. There was the nickname, the human highlights, and the missed shot in Game 7 of the 2001 playoffs against Read More
Blazers vs Rockets – Game 4 Picks
Houston Rockets vs. Portland Trail Blazers Game 4 Sunday 9:35 pm EST April 27, 2014 Line: Portland Trail Blazers -2 Down 0-2, no team in NBA history has come back from an 0-3 deficit. So desperately needing a win, in the closing seconds of overtime in Game 3, the Rockets didn’t turn to James Harden Read More
