tip off is tonight at 9:00 PM ET

i will be backing the celtics again tonight. overall they are the stronger and healthier team at the moment. boston should be able to force more turnovers, similar to game 3, and not only win but cover the spread. i grabbed the celtics at -4 (BetOnline). i honestly shouldve waited a bit cause its at -3.5 right now, but i'm not worried about it. curry isn't entirely healthy. he was listed as probable on ir but he said he is playing.

now, Scott Kacsmar is siding with the extra points with the Warriors. I see this being an effective play if the Warriors are able to adjust their defense well enough.


I do see many of us on this forum are on the celtics as well. if i have any warriors bettors in here, holla

best of luck to you all!!

if you want some more good action on this game, here are some more picks for you guys

how do you feel about curry not being potentially injured though
I think what happened is he took a shot from a bigger body and is pretty sore from it, but very manageable pain tolerance-wise

He didn't twist it or have any awkward movement, which makes managing the pain way more straightforward

It's a good sign he stayed in the game. He would've been taken out if more serious, since the game was starting to get out of reach. He only left when Kerr waved the white flag

Celtics play their best with their backs against the walls. Obviously this is a golden opportunity for them, but they have tended to play kind of flat in spots like these at home (Milwaukee series Game 5, Miami series Game 6 come to mind as examples)

There is a lot to like about Boston in terms of the actual match-up physically: length/size defensively, athleticism. But sometimes their offense becomes a little too hero-ballish with Tatum/Brown. Boston is a better team when Tatum in particular is a playmaker. Games 1 and 3 Tatum did an excellent job of getting his teammates involved. Game 2 Tatum was hitting difficult shots and had a good game scoring wise, but he was less effective overall because it was iso-ball. Much more straightforward and easy for Golden State to defend.

I expect Golden State to play with a lot more energy tonight. Warriors lost Game 3 because they got dominated on the glass. I expect that to change

warriors are fully expected to come out hot tonight to redeem themselves and the extra points are always so nice. to me, the celtics appeared to have figured out how to beat the warriors in game 3. gs could not stop boston. i expect adjustments defensively, but where is the consistency outside of curry? yeah they got thompson and green, but without a 100% healthy curry, i see them losing a close game. however i do respect your sharp play

good luck :)

What play? :)

I think this game will be close regardless. These teams know everything about one another from a strategy standpoint. Celtics do know how to beat the Warriors, but these series come down to execution.

Steph is probably about 100% for what it’s worth. Highly doubt the leg slows him down at all.

If Boston is aggressive, is able to have success on dribble penetration from Tatum/Brown, and shoots reasonably well then yeah, Celtics probably win. If Golden State is able to stop Celtics from that initial point of attack and make Tatum/Brown shoot jumpers, then Warriors probably win

All that said my only action is I snagged Warriors for series at +200 yesterday. Staying away from this game

Winner of this game probably wins the series

ahh i thought you were playing the warriors tonight, my bad. but i get what you mean. honestly, probably smart to stay away with the gray areas. i'm just putting my hope behind the celtics continuing with that momentum and the warriors struggling to adjust defensively..

i dont have money on it, but celtics to with the series for me lol. its always nice when the warriors lose 😂 (apologies if youre a warriors fan lol)
