Celtics vs Heat Quick Bet to Make
Jrue Holiday is our guy for this game. We are going with him getting at least 12 points. He did not do much offensively so far in this series. However, we believe that Erik Spoelstra will make some adjustments defensively, and that should create more space for him. He is yet to go over this line in this series, and we believe that he will cover this line easily in front of his own fans.
That being said, Holiday getting at least 12 points is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Jrue Holiday over 11.5 points @-108 @FanDuel
Los Angeles Clippers vs Dallas Mavericks Best Bet
10PM EST
Los Angeles, CA
Crypto.com Arena
For May 2,2024, we will look at the clash between the Los Angeles Clippers and Dallas Mavericks in Los Angeles. The Clippers won the fourth game 116-111 and tied the series. Expect a high-intensity game.
Current Form
The Clippers are looking good even without Kawhi Leonard. We believe that he will not return to this series. In the last game against the Mavericks, Paul George and James Harden showed us why they are some of the best players in the game. Both of them scored 33 points and were clutch in the fourth quarter. They stole the game against the Mavericks in Dallas, and right now they have home court advantage.
The Mavericks looked terrible in the first half of the last game. Luka Dončić looked injured, and just could not defend properly. Late in the fourth quarter, Luka was switching defensively, as he could not guard James Harden. Despite Irving’s 40 point performance, the Mavericks could not complete the comeback. If they scored some buckets in the first half, the Mavericks would have won that last game.

Clippers vs Mavericks Best Bet to Make
We believe that the Mavericks are a better team. Despite their terrible shooting night, they were still close to winning the last game. We believe that Luka Dončić will rest up and be ready for game 4. This is a must-win game for them, and we believe that Irving and Doncic will be the two best players on the court and lead them to victory.
That being said, the Mavericks winning is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Dallas Mavericks winning @1.67 @bet365
