05 May 03:00 Golden State Warriors v LA Lakers

This Warriors team relies on one man to go off every night for them to win a game and that man is Steph Curry. Stephen Curry is one guard who is difficult to defend because of the amount of chasing you do as a defender but in game one Jarred Vanderbilt was excellent, and he will be applying pressure again in game 2. The Warriors are only favourites because they are playing at home but in game one they were also favourites and they managed to lose. This Lakers team is very good not only offensively but defensively, Anthony Davis had 4 blocks and Lebron had 3 blocks in game one. The Lakers are really the underdog team to go for here, even if they lose they won’t get blown out.

Suggested Bet: +11.5 Lakers

In game one Golden State only had 6 free throws attempted the entire game, while the Lakers had 29 free throws where they converted 25. Now they overcame in that game because the Lakers delivered their free throws and the Warriors delivered when shooting their threes, in a game they had 21 3-point FG made. Now in this game, the tempo will still be the same but the Warriors will also get more free throws compared to the first game, you have to take the over.

Suggested Bet: Over 219.5
