Cavs and Warriors lay it all on the line in Game 7 of The Finals tonight on ABC - Handicappers Hideaway

The fans at Oracle Arena will be expecting a exciting and heated game 7
of the NBA Finals between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State
Warriors when they take their seats on Sunday. This series has been a
series with both hard fought wins and blowouts, and tonights feature has
a chance to be either one. In Game 6 the Cavs held off every run the
Warriors could make in the 3rd and 4th quarter and ending up winning the
game easily. Andrew Bogut being out clearly hurt the Warriors and their
rotations with their subs having to log more minutes than usual.





Oddsmakers currently have the Warriors listed as 5-point favorites versus the Cavaliers, while the game's total is sitting at 208.





In their last action, Golden State was a 115-101 loser on the road
against the Cavaliers. They failed to cover the +2-point spread as
underdogs, while the combined score (216) was profitable news for OVER
bettors.





Cleveland was a 115-101 winner in its last match at home against the
Warriors. They covered the -2-point spread as favorites, while the total
score of 216 sent OVER bettors to the payout window.

NBA Odds: Cavaliers Going Home for Game 6 - Handicappers Hideaway

It took a record-breaking performance – and Draymond Green's suspension –
but the Cleveland Cavaliers are going home with a chance to tie the NBA
Finals at 3-3. The Cavaliers (+6 away) staved off elimination Monday by
beating the Golden State Warriors 112-97, setting up Game 6 in
Cleveland Thursday night. Tip-off is at 9 PM ET on ABC. Oddsmakers have
the Cavs as 2.5 point favorites and the total is now at 207 after
opening at 208.

Kyrie Irving and LeBron James made history by scoring 41 points each for
the Cavs in Game 5; never before have two teammates reached the
40-point mark in the same game. They were helped by the absence of
Green; he was retroactively charged with a flagrant-1 foul for striking
James in the groin during Game 4, leading to an automatic one-game
suspension for accumulating four flagrant foul points in the playoffs.
Green will return for Game 6 in Cleveland.



Andrew Bogut might not join him. Bogut sprained his left knee Monday
night and had to leave the game after getting in just eight minutes of
action. The Warriors center had an MRI on Tuesday, but we have yet to
receive an update on his status. There's a very good chance Bogut is out
for the season, but Golden State is still –450 at press time to win the
title.

NBA Odds: Cavaliers Going Home for Game 6 - Handicappers Hideaway

NBA Finals Preview & Free Pick- Golden State at Cleveland Game 6 - Handicappers Hideaway

The Golden State Warriors will have their second opportunity to win a
second-straight NBA crown this Thursday night when they square-off
against the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 6 of this best-of-seven clash in
the NBA Finals. BetAnySports
has opened the Cavaliers as 2.5-point home favorites to force a Game 7
and the betting line for the total has been set at 208 points. The line
has held steady, but the total has dropped to 207 a few hours from game
time. Tip-off from Quicken Loans Arena is set for 9 p.m. (ET) and the
game will be broadcast nationally on ABC.



The Warriors had only lost once in 12 previous home games in this
season’s playoffs, but they came up short in Monday’s 112-97 loss as
5.5-point favorites on BetAnySports’
closing line. They still hold the 3-2 edge in this series, but now they
will have to try and wrap things up on the road where they have gone a
very pedestrian 4-5 both straight-up and against the spread in nine
previous road games this postseason.



There is a reason why Stephen Curry was the unanimous choice as league
MVP this season. After lighting things up in Game 4 with 38 points while
connecting on seven of his 13 shots from three-point range, he
struggled on Monday night with just five three-point buckets on 14
attempts so as he goes so goes his team. Golden State also missed the
presence of Draymond Green, who was serving a one-game league suspension
in Game 5.



The Cavaliers were able to breathe some new life into this series with
Monday’s win and it was just the second time in the first five games of
this series that they were able to cross the 100-point mark. The total
in that game ended as a PUSH on BetAnySports’ closing 209-point line
after staying UNDER in three of the first four games. Cleveland returns
home with a SU 8-1 record in nine previous playoff games at Quicken
Loans Arena this season while going a profitable 7-2 ATS.



Both LeBron James and Kyrie Irving came up with a huge effort in Game 5
to keep this series alive. James added 16 rebounds and seven assists to
his 41 points on the night, while Irving connected on 17 of his 24 shots
from the field to match James with 41 points as well. Kevin Love
returned to the starting lineup after missing game 4 but he was pretty
much a non-factor with just two points and three rebounds.



Cleveland now has a legitimate shot to take this series the distance
with another win on Thursday night. However, my “best bet” in this game
is the UNDER 207 on BetAnySports’ total line with both sides stepping things up on defense.

The Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers will meet again on
Friday when they battle at Quicken Loans Arena. Golden State got
slapped in the mouth after two blowout wins at home against the Cavs.
The Cavs finally showed some life and some ability to defend on the
perimeter in game #3. The question is can they pull off another game
like that and even this series up at two games a piece.





Oddsmakers currently have the Cavaliers listed as 2½-point favorites versus the Warriors, while the game's total is sitting at 207.





Cleveland was a 120-90 winner in its last match at home against the
Warriors. They covered the -1.5-point spread as favorites, while the
total score of 210 sent OVER bettors to the payout window.





In their last action, Golden State was a 120-90 loser on the road
against the Cavaliers. They failed to cover the +1.5-point spread as
underdogs, while the combined score (210) was profitable news for OVER

Cleveland is Favored in Game 4 of the NBA Finals against Golden State - Handicappers Hideaway

NBA Finals Preview & Free Pick- Golden State at Cleveland Game 3 - Handicappers Hideaway

The 2016 NBA Finals resume this Wednesday night with the Golden State Warriors going on the
road with a 2-0 series lead as one-point underdogs for Game 3.
BetAnySports has set the total line for this game at 206.5 after it
stayed UNDER in the first two games. Tip-off from Quicken Loans Arena is
set for 9 p.m. (ET) and the game will broadcast nationally on ABC.



Golden State closed as six-point home favorites in each of the first two
games of this series, but it did not really matter how high BetAnySports
set the spread given that the Warriors cruised to a pair of victories
by a combined 48 points. They put up 104 points in Game 1 and 110 in
this past Sunday’s win while holding the Cavaliers to fewer than 90
points each time. The total has now stayed UNDER in seven of their last
nine playoff games.



League MVP Stephen Curry has been somewhat quiet in these first two
matchups while players such as Sean Livingston and Draymond Green have
grabbed the spotlight as the leading scorers. Curry only had 11 points
in the series opener and he posted 18 points on Sunday while going
4-for-8 from three-point range. You get the feeling that he will have to
play a much bigger role to get his team a win on the road.



The Cavaliers rolled through their first three playoff series at 12-2
straight-up while going 9-5 against the spread, but that just shows you
how much of a gap in talent there really is between the Eastern and
Western Conference in the NBA. They went a perfect 7-0 SU on their home
court during this run while going a highly profitable 6-1 ATS. The total
stayed UNDER or ended as a PUSH in five of those seven games.



It would be hard to place all that much blame on LeBron James for his
team’s early hole given his numbers in those first two contests, but all
this does is hammer home the point that when the Cavaliers do not play
as a complete team they normally lose. They may also lose Kevin Love for
Game 3 after he left Sunday’s loss with a head injury. His status
remains day-to-day.



This could be a great spot to take Cleveland as a slight home favorite with BetAnySports,
but I am not all that thrilled betting against Golden State right now. I
went with the OVER in Game 2 and came up short, but I think both teams
find that scoring touch on Wednesday night so I am going that way again.











NBA Finals Preview & Free Pick- Golden State at Cleveland Game 3 - Handicappers Hideaway

NBA Finals Preview & Free Pick- Cleveland at Golden State Game 1 - Handicappers Hideaway

The 2016 NBA Finals
get underway this Thursday night in a 9 p.m. (ET) tip at Oracle Arena
with Game 1 of a best-of-seven clash between the Cleveland Cavaliers and
the Golden State Warriors. For the second-straight season these two
will meet in the championship round as the top seed in their respective
conference. BetAnySports
has opened the Warriors as 5.5-point home favorites for Game 1 and the
total has been set at 210. The line has inched up to Golden State as a
6-point favorite and the total is now at 210.5.



Cleveland’s route to the NBA Finals was pretty direct with a straight-up
12-2 run while going 9-5 against the spread. Following routine sweeps
of Detroit and Atlanta, it got past No. 2 Toronto in the Eastern
Conference Finals with four wins in six games. The total stayed UNDER or
ended as a PUSH in nine of the Cavaliers’ first 14 postseason games.



You would expect LeBron James to be at the top of the list in points
scored (24.6), but Cleveland has also gotten a strong effort from Kyrie
Irving and Kevin Love during this impressive run. Irving has basically
matched James with 24.3 points per game and Love leads the team in
rebounds (9.6) and he is averaging 17.3 PPG. The Cavaliers averaged
104.3 points in the regular season and that number has climbed to 106.9
points in the playoffs.



Golden State rolled through its first two playoff series against Houston
and Portland in 10 games while going 7-3 ATS on BetAnySports’ closing
line. Following a rare loss at home in Game 1 of the Western Conference
Finals against Oklahoma City, the defending champs dug themselves into a
3-1 hole before responding with a 3-0 run both SU and ATS. The Warriors
are 9-1 SU at home in the postseason with an 8-2 record ATS. The total
has stayed UNDER in six of those 10 home games.



The backcourt duo of Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson deserve a great
deal of the credit for Golden State’s amazing comeback against the
Thunder that clinched return trip to the NBA Finals. These two combined
for 72 points in a 108-101 victory in Game 6 as a three-point road
underdog and in Monday’s 96-88 grinder as a seven-point home favorite
Curry ended the night with a game-high 36 points with Thompson chipping
in another 21 points to the winning cause.



The Cavaliers come into Game 1 well-rested, while Golden State will have
to deal with the physical and mental fatigue of that stunning comeback.
Even with that edge Cleveland may still lose this game SU, I like its
chances to cover with BetAnySports’ 6-point spread.

NBA Odds: Thunder Take 3-1 Lead to Golden State - Handicappers Hideaway

The Golden State Warriors won 73 games during the regular season, but if
they don't win Thursday night (9 PM ET, TNT), their playoffs will be
over. Golden State lost 94-118 to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday,
dropping the cash as 3-point road favorites to fall behind 3-1 in their
Western Conference final.

There's no question that the Warriors aren't the same team that went
into the postseason as – 150 favorites to defend their championship.
Stephen Curry doesn't seem to have shaken off the injuries he suffered
during the first-round series against the Houston Rockets; the two-time
and reigning MVP had another off-night Tuesday, scoring just 19 points
on 6-of-20 shooting, including 2-of-10 from long range.



Oddsmakers still have faith in the Warriors as they have them listed as a
7 to 7.5 point favorite and the total is at 220 right now.



But give credit to the Thunder for putting the boots to Golden State.
They upset the San Antonio Spurs in the previous round, and now they're
10-5 ATS during these playoffs after blowing out the Warriors in
back-to-back games. Russell Westbrook had another triple-double Tuesday
night, posting 36 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists. That's five
straight games with at least 10 assists for Westbrook, and 10 out of the
15 games he's played in the postseason.

NBA Playoffs Tuesday Preview & Free Pick- Golden State at Oklahoma City Game 4 - Handicappers Hideaway

The Golden State Warriors will try and avoid falling into a very deep
hole in their best-of-seven series against the red-hot Oklahoma City
Thunder when the two clash this Tuesday night at Chesapeake Energy Arena
in Game 4. Tip-off on TNT is set for 9 p.m. (ET) and BetAnySports has listed the Warriors as slight 1.5-point road favorites with the total set at 222.



Golden State has yet to lose back-to-back games this season, but it has
already lost two of the first three games in this series. First, the
Warriors were stunned at home 108-102 as 7.5-point favorites in Game 1
and most recently they were hammered on the road 133-105 as 2.5-point
road favorites in Sunday’s Game 3. In between, they beat the Thunder
118-91 as nine-point favorites at home. The total stayed UNDER in the
first two games of this series before going OVER BetAnySports’ closing
219-point line on Sunday.



Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson combined for 42 points on Sunday, but
they only managed to connect on five of their 19 shots from three-point
range. The Warriors shot 41.3 percent from the field as opposed to a
47.3 shooting percentage in the playoffs this year. This was just the
third time in 13 postseason games that they scored 105 points or less.



The Thunder have to guard against another letdown following a big win.
They are a profitable 5-1 both straight-up and against the spread in
their last six games, but the lone loss was that 27-point beating in
Game 2 of this series. Oklahoma City is 5-2 ATS at home during the
postseason and the total has gone OVER in four of the seven games.



There was little doubt that OKC’s top two players brought their A-game
to Sunday’s showdown. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook combined for 63
points while going 20-for-34 from the field. Both have been playing at a
very high level since the playoffs began with Durant averaging a
team-high 27.8 points per game closely followed by Westbrook’s
25.3-point scoring average. The Thunder are averaging 106.9 PPG and
shooting 46.3 percent from the field through 13 postseason games.



Despite just how good Oklahoma City has looked in this series, I will lay the point and half with BetAnySports and take the Warriors to even things up in Game 4. There is a reason why they won 73 games in the regular season.

The Oklahoma City Thunder and the Golden State Warriors will meet up in

pull off the ultimate upset of the playoffs. Rumor has it this is
Duran't swansong in OKC if they don't at least make it to the finals and
they have a huge up-hill battle.



Oddsmakers currently have the Warriors listed as 7½-point favorites versus the Thunder, while the game's total is sitting at 224.



Golden State won its last outing, a 125-121 result against the Trail
Blazers on May 11. The Warriors failed to cover in that game as a
-13.5-point favorite, while the 246 combined points took the game OVER
the total.



In their last action, Oklahoma City was a 113-99 winner at home against

The fans at Moda Center will be ready for another high scoring game
between the Golden State Warriors and the Portland Trail Blazers when

the talent laden Warriors from playing at a high caliber against the
Trail Blazers.



Oddsmakers currently have the Warriors listed as 5½-point favorites versus the Trail Blazers, while the game's total is sitting at 214.



The Trail Blazers were a 120-108 winner in their most recent outing at

NBA Playoffs Tuesday Preview & Free Pick- Portland at Golden State Game 2 - Handicappers Hideaway

The Portland Trail Blazers tee-off against the Golden State Warriors
this Tuesday night at Oracle Arena in Game 2 of this best-of-seven
matchup in the Western Conference Semifinals. BetAnySports
has listed the Warriors as 10-point home favorites and the total for
the game has been set at 213.5. Bettors have bet the game down to where
the Warriors are now a 9.5 point favorite and the total is down to a
solid 213. Tip-off is slated for 10:30 p.m. (ET) and the game will be
broadcast nationally on TNT.



Portland got past the heavily depleted Los Angeles Clippers in six games
to advance to this round, but a painfully slow start in Game 1 of this
series led to a 118-106 loss as a 9.5-point road underdog on BetAnySports’ closing line.
The Trail Blazers are now just 3-10 against the spread in their last 10
games. The total in that game went OVER the 210.5-point line and it has
gone OVER in their last three contests.



Damian Lillard has been the team’s leading scorer all season long with
an average of 25.1 points per game. Despite the fact that he scored 30
points in a losing effort in Game 1, he is going to have to do a much
better job shooting the ball after going just 8-for 26 from the field.
Portland was the sixth-highest scoring team in the league during the
regular season with 105.1 PPG, but it fell to 20^th in points allowed (104.3).



Golden State continues to press-on without the help of Stephen Curry.
While there is a possibility that the league’s MVP could return to the
lineup in Game 3 of this series, his team continues to light-up the
scoreboard without him. The Warriors have scored 114 points or more in
each of their last three games and Klay Thompson lit things up this past
Sunday with a game-high 37 points. Draymond Green has also helped to
fill the void with 14.8 points and 10.2 rebounds in the postseason.



Curry missed two games of the Warriors’ opening playoff series against
Houston with an ankle injury and another game with an ailing knee, but
Golden State was still able to get past the Rockets in just five games.
It is now 7-1 both SU and ATS in its last eight outings and while the
total did go OVER in Game 1 of this series it had stayed UNDER BetAnySports’ closing line in six of its previous eight outings.



The Warriors continue to prove that they can win big even with Curry out
of the lineup and I like their chances to keep things rolling at home
this Tuesday night with another big win both SU and ATS.

next 2 weeks, and the Rockets just want to stay alive. The fewer games
the Warriors have to play without Steph Curry the better, even though
they are definitely talented enough to beat everyone but the Spurs in a 7
game series without him.



Oddsmakers currently have the Warriors listed as 9½-point favorites versus the Rockets, while the game's total is sitting at 212.



The Warriors were a 121-94 winner in their most recent outing on the
road against the Rockets. They covered the -8.5-point spread as
favorites, while the total score (215) made winners of UNDER bettors.



Houston lost its last outing, a 121-94 result against the Warriors on

Last year, the Houston Rockets lost the first two games of their playoff

have already arrived, leaving large sections of town underwater.
Oddsmakers have Golden State as a 5.5 point favorite and the total is at
215.5.

This also isn't the same Houston team that earned the No. 2 seed in the
Western Conference last year. The Rockets (41-41 SU, 37-45 ATS) barely
squeaked into the playoffs, plagued by dissension, injuries and a
depleted bench after the failed trade for point guard Ty Lawson. Houston
didn't have much of a prayer in either of the first two games at Oracle
Arena – but at least the Rox earned a push Monday night as 9-point road
dogs.



That's because Stephen Curry missed Game 2 for the Warriors (73-9 SU,
45-35-2 ATS) with discomfort in his ankle and foot. Curry hopes to play
in Game 3, but he was also expecting to suit up on Monday after hurting
himself in the opener. Shaun Livingston started in Curry's place and
scored 16 points on 7-of-9 shooting.

April 07. The Warriors covered in that game as a -6-point favorite,
while the 213 combined points took the game OVER the total.

Updated 2015-16 NBA Title Odds After the Draft and Beginning of Free Agency - Handicappers Hideaway

Updated 2015-16 NBA Title Odds


“Unlike LeBron’s NBA landscape shifting move to the Cavs last July,
this year’s NBA free agency and draft have not affected the 2016 title
odds significantly with the exception of the San Antonio Spurs who we
have cut their odds in half from 9/1 to 9/2. The Spurs are now right up
there with the Cavs at 11/4 and the Warriors at 9/2 to take it all next
year. LaMarcus Aldridge joining the Spurs is the reason for this, while
the Trail Blazers have drifted from 40/1 to 75/1 because of this signing
and are no longer considered contenders from an odds perspective.”

LeBron James and Cavs are Underdogs in Much Anticipated Final



The Golden State Warriors broke out as an up and coming Western
Conference contender last season, and this year they’ve dominated the
landscape. Lined up against LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in
the finals, the world will watch as the Dubs look to take yet another
step forward.

The Warriors are currently pitted as 5.5-point favorites to win Game 1
of the championship. Considering Golden State led the league in wins
this season, boasting a 67-15 record SU and a 47-34-1 record ATS, the
big spread isn’t surprising.



However, James and the Cavs shouldn’t be underestimated. Playing in his
fifth consecutive final, King James is more than capable of taking over
a series. In 14 playoff games so far this postseason the superstar has
posted averages of 27.6 points, 10.4 rebounds and 8.3 assists per
game. The Splash Brothers can’t match the individual power of
Cleveland’s prodigal son.



As a team, though, Golden State has blown minds and exceeded
expectations all year. Weigh in on the NBA Finals and tune in to watch
postseason basketball at its best. The total is set at 203 as we go to
press.
