The Celtics won the series against the Cavaliers 4-1. On the other hand, the Pacers won game 7 against the Knicks. The first game was an absolute thriller, with the Celtics winning against the Pacers in overtime. Expect a high-intensity game.<\/p>\n<h3>Injury Report<\/h3>\n<h4>Missing Tonight<\/h4>\n<p>Kristaps Porzi\u0146\u0123is (calf)<br \/>\nBennedict Mathurin (shoulder)<\/p>\n<h3>Celtics vs Pacers Quick Bet to Make<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Tyrese Haliburton is our guy for this game.<\/strong> We are g<strong>oing with him getting at least 20 points.<\/strong> In the last game against the Celtics, Haliburton scored 25 points.

He is taking more shots, and we believe that he will go over this line easily once again.<\/p>\n<p>That being said, <strong>Haliburton getting at least 20 points is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Value bet\/ the best odds: Tyrese Haliburton over 19.5 points @+100 @FanDuel<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[tgdcta items=&#8221;1&#8243; id=&#8221;170476&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2>Minnesota Timberwolves vs Dallas Mavericks Best Bet<\/h2>\n<p><strong>8:30PM EST<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Minneapolis, MN<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Target Center<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For May 22, 2024, we will look at the clash between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Dallas Mavericks in Minneapolis. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/basketball\/2024\/05\/20\/timberwolves-nuggets-game-7-showdown-makes-nba-history\/\" target=\"_self\">The Timberwolves won the series against the Nuggets 4-3.<\/a> On the other hand, the Mavericks won the series 4-2 against the Thunder. This will be the first game of the series. Expect a high-intensity game.<\/p>\n<h3>Current Form<\/h3>\n<p><strong>The Timberwolves<\/strong> played the best defense so far in the playoffs. It was just great to watch their in-game adjustments. In game 7 against the Nuggets, the Timberwolves were trailing by 20 points. However, once Anthony Edwards was guarding Jamal Murray in the second half, everything was different. Even with Anthony Edwards shooting poorly, the Timberwolves were great. They have a great roster with almost no injuries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Mavericks<\/strong> closed out the series against the Thunder in the sixth game. P.J. Washington had a rough night up until the fourth quarter. He then proceeded to take what could have been a game-winning shot, but got fouled and scored two winning free-throws. Luka Don\u010di\u0107 still looks banged up on the court. Kyrie Irving and Luka Don\u010di\u0107 look great together on the court and are almost unguardable in their isolated possessions.<\/p>\n<h3>Injury Report<\/h3>\n<h4>Missing Tonight<\/h4>\n<p>Maxi Kleber (shoulder)<\/p>\n<h4>Questionable<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/mike-conleys-message-to-his-minnesota-teammates-is-being-tested-we-cant-be-satisfied-160901204.html?guccounter=1&amp;guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&amp;guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAHbIdUrNhqx-HL83idyTMIYTJ_DEF5uCa3zDVcBGai6m_2IVB-fCpV1P88o8eyNvr7eXiTZ5Nkfn7Sb0eisP2uOgf1mgQZdrIzypDdOdObeyZfwN34X6OOWySUrw90w8bg8R9CdmpO4OhIX3LS22h-B1cMvaynv4OxlBDj1ny0IP\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mike Conley (achilles)<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Timberwolves vs Mavericks Best Bet to Make<\/h3>\n<p>According to the bookies, the Timberwolves are just slight favorites in this matchup.
