NBA Betting Tips: 19 May

19 May 02:30 Denver Nuggets v LA Lakers

We’re going with the underdogs here, Lebron James and Anthony Davis did not look worried at all after their game 1 loss. That is because the Lakers played better in the second half and almost completed the comeback. Having Rui Hachimura guard the Joker while AD protected the rim worked perfectly for them and it wouldn’t be a surprise if Rui started this game. The Nuggets shot the ball really well in game one, even making tough shots but the Lakers know that they wont shoot like that every night. The Joker will get his boards and assists this game but the Lakers will play better at getting the boards. This game will be close, take the underdog.

Suggested Bet: Lakers +8.5
