NBA Tips - Sunday, May 24 NBA Picks & Multi

The Cavs appear to be on the ropes down 0-2 in the series. We all know the season doesn’t truly start until a team drops a game at home.

Cleveland Cavaliers @ New York Knicks (10:10am)

Jalen Brunson

Time for another big Brunson game. The Knicks have done the work and lead the series 2-0, they will now try to steal one if not both games out of Ohio.

The Cavs got burned in game 2 when they doubled Brunson and left the Knicks shooters, mainly Hart, who punished them all game for leaving him open. The Knicks have so far out coached the Cavs dramatically and I expect them to continue to put Harden in as many actions as possible.

Brunson is averaging 27.6PPG for the playoffs, he had 38 in game 1 and shot poorly in game 2, still managing to finish with 19. He is 2 of his last 13 three pointers and I guarantee that improves. 6 games this post season of clearing this number, including four above thirty-three points.

Value Bet

Mikal Bridges

15+ Points

$2.25

He finished game 2 with 19 points and saluted this exact bet for us, so let’s reload.

The same theory should apply for Bridges; he should be able to find some space off of the attention Brunson is demanding. That’s now six of his last seven games with 15 or more points. We have also seen his playing time trending up, as he played over forty minutes in both games, this series. A true shooting of 76.2% over the last seven games, shows us Bridges is scorching hot right now.

SGM

Brunson Over 26.5 Points/ Bridges 10+ Points/ Towns 10+ Rebounds = $3.50
