The Golden State Warriors look to bring out the brooms and follow the Cleveland Cavaliers to the next round. The online betting favourites look as indomitable as they have been all season, and odds aren’t looking bright for the Portland Trail Blazers.
However, the other two games will offer exciting betting odds for thrill-seeking punters. Both games always have the potential of being close fights, given the teams involved.
Milwaukee Bucks @ Toronto Raptors (April 25, 07:00 GMT+8)
The series goes back to Toronto tied at 2-2 after both teams displayed resilient basketball. DeMar DeRozan’s performance over the past two games cements his importance to the team’s success, while Giannis Antetokounmpo was doing great in keeping the entire Bucks roster together.
Toronto will be sure favourites when Game 5 tips off at Air Canada Centre, but don’t count the Bucks out of the game: they did win one in Toronto, after all. Milwaukee +6.00 @ 1.96 is the way to go given the tight contest between the two clubs.
Washington Wizards @ Atlanta Hawks (April 25, 08:00 GMT+8)
The Hawks definitely played their brand of basketball after coming back to Atlanta and snuffed whatever momentum Washington had. Another win for the Hawks will even up the series and make Game 6 a terrible proposition for Scott Brooks.
We can be sure that Brooks will make adjustments to make scoring easier for Bradley Beal and Marcin Gortat. The question now is this: can the Wizards stop Paul Millsap and Dennis Schroder? My answer is no, so it’d be best to bet on Atlanta -3.00 @ 2.03.
Golden State Warriors @ Portland Trail Blazers (April 25, 10:30 GMT+8)
As much as I like Damian Lillard’s game and CJ McCollum’s The Players’ Tribune pieces, I really don’t see them beating the Golden State Warriors. The Dubs are just too loaded for the backcourt-heavy Blazers to handle.
The question now lies on whether the Blazers will be winning a game at all. I say we bring out the brooms and punt a lot on Golden State -7.00 @ 1.97.
