Can the Indiana Pacers led by Tyrese Haliburton win on the road in Game 1 when they head to Milwaukee?
Miami Heat @ Boston Celtics (3:00am)
Jrue Holiday’s post-season record is strong, albeit with the Milwaukee Bucks.
Definitely doesn’t need to do near as much in this Boston outfit, but expect the veteran to rise to the occasion entering the playoffs off the back of averaging 19 points, 5.8 rebounds and 7.6 assists from his last four playoff series across a total of 49 games.
SGM – Holiday 10+ Points / Love Over 5.5 Points / Holiday Over 4.5 Rebounds = $3.75
Dallas Mavericks @ LA Clippers (5:30am)
Kawhi questionable in Game 1 against the Mavericks – if the Klaw plays, Harden’s line will likely drop to 15.5, but even without Kawhi in this I can’t trust post-season Harden.
Covered 18.5 points in just four of his last 13 post-season games, while his record against the Mavericks this season is underwhelming averaging just 13 a game.
SGM – Dallas / Harden Under 18.5 Points / Doncic Over 8.5 1st Q Points =$4.75
Indiana Pacers @ Milwaukee Bucks (9:10am)
Has destroyed the Bucks in all five games this season including the Semi Final for the Play-In tournament.
Tyrese Haliburton has scored 20+ against Milwaukee on all five games, averaging 27 points per game. With Giannis out you would think that puts a further dint in this Milwaukee defense, so expect the point guard to once again cause havoc.
SGM – Over 231.5 Points / Haliburton 20+ Points / Middleton 6+ Assists = $4.33
New Orleans Pelicans @ OKC Thunder (11:40am)
Is a completely different player without Zion. Willie Green clearly trusts just one of them on the court at a time, so when Zion plays JV sits, but when Zion is injured the big man goes large.
Scored 19 points in their elimination play-in game against the Kings, and across the regular season JV averaged 17 points per game without Zion, covering this line in his last 9 games.
The Thunder have struggled defending centres all season, so we could see the Lithuanian go for 15+ ($2.75) or even 20+ ($8).
SGM – Valanciunas Over 11.5 Points / Holmgren 15+ Points / McCollum Under 20.5 Points = $4.75
