NBA Playoffs Picks: Wednesday, Apr 26

New York Knicks vs Cleveland Cavaliers

The New York Knicks are coming together as a team at the right time. They have excelled in the playoffs and they are playing their best basketball of the season. However, this series is not over yet. This is one of those games that test the mindset of a team. Cleveland may not win this series, but they will win this game. The Cavs are 20-8-1 ATS at home against a team with a winning road record and they will go all out to win this game. Everything is pointing to an easy Knicks win and that is when it is time to shift gears and bet the home team.

Game 5 Pick: Cavs -5.5

 

LA Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies

The Lakers are riding a high after a big win at home in overtime and they have a chance to close out the series against the Memphis Grizzlies, but it won’t be easy. The Grizzlies still have a ton of talent and they will be at home for this crucial game. But mentally they are worn down. The Grizzlies had multiple chances to take control of this series and they failed every time. LeBron James made a point of saying that the closeout game is the most important game and the Lakers will be ready for this game. The Grizzlies are 1-4 ATS in the last five games and they cannot be trusted. The season is over for Memphis and the Lakers will advance.

Game 5 Pick: Lakers +4

Miami Heat vs Milwaukee Bucks

Giannis returned for the Bucks, but Jimmy Butler is clearly the star of this series. The Heat have the Bucks on the ropes and will look to close out the series when these two teams meet on Wednesday night. But the Bucks will be at home and clearly Las Vegas believes the Bucks have the upper hand since they are listed as (-11) point favorites. That line looks too good to be true and Heat backers are running to the window to bet Miami. But the Heat is 16-33-2 ATS after a win and 2-5 ATS in the last seven games in Milwaukee. Look for a focused Bucks team to win this game in a big way, easily covering the spread and extending the series.

Game 5 Pick: Bucks -11

 

Golden State Warriors vs Sacramento Kings

This is the best series of the first round of the NBA playoffs. And it is very interesting to see that the Warriors are small favorites on the road in game five of this series. The Kings are a very good team but an injury to superstar De’Aaron Fox will make things difficult for the hometown team. Fox has already said that he is going to play in this game, which shows just how important it is for the Kings. We all know, but it deserves repeating the Warriors are a different team on the road. Golden State is 15-36-1 ATS on the road and the Kings are 10-3 ATS after a loss. The Kings win and this series keeps getting better.

Game 5 Pick: Kings +1.5
