I think GSW wins game 5
but you lost me when you said GSW plays better defense.. no they don’t lol
@JimmyGape
Comical write up of game 5. If you actually watched the NBA playoffs and think the warriors are better than Celtics, then you’re just lost or a true fan or just trying to feel good about the bet you made
And you better hope they win this game because it’s Boston in 6 if they don’t.

The Celtics have more talent. The Warriors have Kerr-ee (that's Kerr-- taking out Draymond-- and Curry). Stephon Curry is 34. That's the apex of a great player's career. Loss in physical ability is made up by experience. Jordan at 34 comes to mind. I look at the top five on each side (even taking away Draymond Green) down the stretch-- the meat of the 4th quarter, 7 minutes to 3 minutes.
Smart-Curry
DJ White- Poole
Robert Williams - Looney
Tatum - Wiggins
Brown - Thompson
If it's close, it boils down to Tatum or Brown outplaying Curry. I vote Curry.

This reminds me a bit of the 84 Celtics vs Lakers series. The Lakers were clearly the better team. After splitting the first two in Boston (LA won game one and Boston won game two) the Celtics dropped game 3 and stole game 4 in OT in LA to go back to Boston 2-2. They had been behind the entire series and knew they needed to win game 5 in a big way because they would not win another game in LA. They then threw the kitchen sink at the Lakers in game 5.

So you think the Celtics are better?

I bet GS heavy before the playoffs started and I was all over the -150 before the finals started. Realized at some point in between game 1 and game 2 that I'm going to be really lucky if I win those. Boston is not overrated. They were the unlucky team who had to play Brooklyn first round and they swept them. Then they knockoff the defending champs and then the gritty 1 seed. I dont see why they cant knock off the best (maybe 2nd best) team as well.
Something about road games in these Boston series tells me Game 5 could seriously go either way and it feels like the warriors left it all out there Friday...

Boston is the best team in the playoffs, this guy is just a fan who is blinded by his fandom. Every metric says Boston, beginning with their run during the second half of the season, is a historically great team. They play defense like the 04 Pistons but have a lot more fire power on the offensive end then that team. That’s why winning the title would be such an accomplishment for the Warriors. But it starts with game 5. This is now a new series. It’s best out of 3.

I don't think Boston is clearly the better team. I think both teams are evenly matched. Boston is athletically superior. Golden State has the edge in basketball IQ and experience. They are both good on both sides of the ball. I have watched a ton of Celtics basketball this year. Their youth and inexperience comes out often. They can turn in on and drop 120+ on any given night but they also hit lulls were they look offensively inept. They benefited from the whistle dramatically in the Miami series. They have been called out for flopping and "foul hunting" by their own coach and fan base. Their fans are turning on their own star player. If the Warriors take Game 5, which I expect they will, the pressure of their own home court will get to them. Warriors in 6.

Agree I'm going big on Monday night. Wasn't so sure about game 4 and only put 500 on them. But tomorrow is the game I was waiting for . I know anything can happen but I truly believe no way the warriors lose game 5 at home. Not gonna milk any tits or take out any loans but gonna drop 2 gs on it. Might be chump change to some but that will be the most I've ever put on an nba game.

The biggest 2 questions that have not been answered are these.
1. Is the op. play or anyone else who is on Golden State on the Moneyline?
2. If betting Golden State on the spread what happens if they win by 3 or less? You lose your money.
I have not a clue who will win but I will be betting the game to go to overtime. So overdue for an epic battle. Good luck to all.

Im gonna say something that people should take into account.
The human race is so comically moronic that its beyond words.
You've got a point. There were answers given on a tik tok site called project better. He asked a young woman in her 20's "Who was the first person to walk on the sun." She replied, "Lance Armstrong." He asked another young woman "If you were born in 2021, how old would you be." She replied, 21.

Play of a lifetime and you only take ML???? LOL
Bruh - Winners in the Finals since 2014 are 66-0-1 ATS when the spread is 6 or less. If you love golden state as a play of the year pull ur big boy panties up and take em ATS.

This is how I confidently predict when i bet huge series line on a certain team. 200% sure in my mind. Just like you bet on MIAMI on Game 7 home with a lifetime certainty of winning.
