NEEDTHAT247

This is a very interesting series 2 top notch teams battle it out..this feels like a feeling out game and the nets -4 seems like a little bit excessive...the nets have the superstars but haven’t experienced anything together playoff wise as far as any adversity, however the bucks are battle tested as a team not as far as this playoffs but they have been here before and the addition of jrue holiday makes them even more legit contender..I’ll take the bucks, the road team best time to win is game 1 or 3 so I’ll take the bucks and a random game 1 under 238.5 game 1s of a series tend to lean under most cases so fuck it???????

bucks+4

bucks ML 

Bucks/nets under 238.5

wizards vs Sixers 

wizards had their day this is a total mismatch Sixers win in 5..Today Sixers route wizards not even close..no big to deal with embiid consistently put some size on Russ with Simmons or even thybulle green can deal with Beal..Sixers are a complete team wizards are Russ or buss Beal playing on 1 leg 

Sixers -7.5

lakers vs suns

im a lakers fan so the lakers will definitely win this series but as far as today it’s an L, bron has been historically taking Ls in game 1s and a little revenge on the suns mind from getting smacked in La prior to the playoffs this is a suns spot or nothing with the lakers winning in 6

suns -2

hawks vs Knicks 

this is the biggest toss up in the first round teams are pretty much even I’ll give the nod to the team with the better coach and solid vets to lead them in the Knicks for the series and game 1 since it’s the Knicks first home playoff game in who Knows how long

knicks -1.5

grizzlies vs jazz

the new kids on the block the grizzlies are a dangerous bunch loved the grizz vs the warriors when everybody counted them out like they had no chance in beating the warriors. This is a resilient bunch of dudes and will be a tough matchup for the jazz to deal with they have a bigs to deal with Gobert guards to defend Mitchell mainly in Dillon brooks and Mitchell is still hampered by his own injuries this is set for a seven game series and Memphis could realistically pull this 1 out these guys have nothing to lose to play lose and free

grizzlies +8

grizzlies ML (small play) 

sixers -7.5

suns-2

knicks -1.5

grizzlies +8

grizzlies ML (small play)

@notaprojust4fun

 Logically speaking the lakers don’t need to steal any game they can win the series yet lose game 1...bron has been notorious for losing game 1s anyway and slight revenge suns going to LA and got railroaded without bron this is a suns spot all the way or don’t bet the game 

Coming into covers I read some interesting threads some seem knowledgeable but most just be talking I’ll give some better insight and a objective take on first round games.

Heat vs bucks 

heat ended the season on a strong note I get but the bucks should come out wit a bit more motivation early lean bucks series and bucks to cover the -5 

clips vs mavs 

this 1 is kinda tricky clips should of course take this series but then again clips are 1 of the least trustworthy elite teams there is early lean on mavs +5 

celtics vs nets

ok I get it nets next best thing ever trendy finals pick but the playoffs will be tricky for the nets to navigate even with that elite talent  their cohesion is still a work in progress but they will pull the series out even tho it will be tougher then what people are anticipating nets win series but Celtics cover +8 game 1 and could possibly steal it

Blazers vs nuggets

nuggets are toast no guard play going up against the blazers who have hit a stride themselves their ready it seems as a team things are clicking for them at the right time I get joker is the MVP all fine and dandy but this is a guards league and blazers have 2 of the best and are hungry blazers should rap this series up in no more then 6 blazers big game 1 easy bet 

bucks -5 

mavs +5

boston +8 

blazers ml big bet 

This line seems a bit trappy opened at LAL -4.5 now already at 2.5 either AD sits or sharps were all over that 4.5 Portland-2 is a better bet
