Jokic's 53 points were not enough for the Nuggets to win, the score continues at 2:2 in Denver ...

Today, I think the Lakers will increase their lead to 3:1. :unsure:

James Harden helped his team a lot in today's game. First, he moved the game to overtime and in overtime he won with an accurate three-point shot. Now the score in the series became 2:2 and everything became much more interesting.

The Heat and the Lakers won yesterday, and today Denver has a better chance of winning today, but the Boston game can be tougher and anything can happen.

I'd be interested to hear your opinion on the Lakers vs Golden State Warriors. Do the golden ones still have a chance to win this series? Currently, the score is 3-1 in favour of LeBron James' team. I think that the Golden State Warriors should win the next game, but it may not be possible to win the whole series and reach the semi-finals. The Lakers just cut off Stephen Curry's breathing, his statistics have deteriorated in recent games.

I am not sure if you watched the game or not, but GSW needs all of its players to perform not just Curry to carry the team. If any of the other star players can contribute like how they did in game 1, maybe we might see a game 6.

In my opinion, Golden St. needed to win that game yesterday to even the series. Tough to dig out 3-1 hole in playoffs. The Laker's Defense to me has been the difference in this series. 4-2 in LA with more AD in big doses!

I'm really enjoying this year's playoffs. I wouldn't give up on the Golden State, the guys and Steff wouldn't give up so easily, even though the Lakers are very good right now. We might even see all 7 games. Denver has a good chance of winning the fifth game, Phoenix will have a hard time without Chris Paul.

Cameron Payne and Landry Shamet give the Suns speed that they need to compete with the Nuggets. Let's see how the backcourt for the Suns plays tonight in the Denver. I love Chris Paul but he slows the tempo down which actually hurts the Suns in this series.

Denver took the lead with Jokic's triple-double, but Boston is in trouble because they lost at home to the 76ers and the duel may be over in Philadelphia...

For me, the Heat and the Lakers would be the favorites today, but knowing their 3:1 advantage, they may want to decide the duel in their home game, so neither their defeat nor their victory would surprise me.

Together only scored 13 points which is not going to get it done against the Nuggets.

Today, the Suns match will be tough, so I don't expect many points, unlike the betting offices:

Phoenix - Denver (Under 223.5 (Score 223.5) 2.01)

I'll be curious to see how it ends.

The Warriors and Lakers series got interesting. Davis may have a concussion from taking a hit during game 5.

If the Suns get eliminated, everything else is just fine however it ends up finishing.

It ended up being 225, it was close.
Denver went on practically smoothly and Boston also won on the road, there comes the 7th game.

I think both the Heat and the Lakers will win today, but in Miami, Butler needs to be able to play.

Well, the Los Angeles Lakers expectedly won their home game against the Golden State Warriors. I was rooting for the golden ones because I wanted to see the seventh game between these two teams, but LeBron sent them home in the sixth game. Now we're waiting for the Denver Nuggets and Lakers, it will be a very intense match and I don't know who is the favourite in this confrontation, it will be very interesting to watch.
