Free NBA Eastern Conference Playoffs Picks, Best Bets, and Parlays for 5/9/22

Yesterday we saw two best of 7 matchups go to 2-2, as the 76ers and the Mavericks won and evened up those two series. Tonight we could see the very same thing happen in Milwaukee, but Golden State seems to have the upper hand over Memphis, especially since Ja Marant may not play tonight for the Grizzlies. We had a great week of betting the NBA and let’s hope we can stay hot.

We cashed our Best Bet yesterday, as the 76ers played their best game of the series and won 116-108, and with Embiid back in the lineup, Miami looks vulnerable. Going into the new week our Best Bet of the Day record is now 93-47 in 2022.

We went 2-0 betting the MoneyLine and our overall record stands at 474-230 since Jan.1st.

Let’s look at the Boston-Milwaukee game today and see what Vegas is thinking.

*PAPA DUDES BEST BET OF THE DAY* Boston at Milwaukee (-1): Milwaukee leads the series 2-1: This matchup is everything we thought it would be as the two teams are evenly matched. Game 3 saw Boston make a frantic 4th quarter comeback and come tantalizing close to tying the game but the officials ruled that the game-tying shot came just after the buzzer. It took 42 points from Giannis Antetokounmpo to hold off the Celtics who shot just 37% from the floor and made only nine 3-pointers. Leading scorer, Jayson Tatum, was 4-19, (including 0-6 from behind the arc), and finished with only ten points. I think it safe to assume he will play much better tonight. Milwaukee is going to need someone besides Giannis and Jrue Holiday to step up and score. I can see this game going either way, but I’m leaning towards the Celtics to shoot better and slow down Giannis enough to pull out a win tonight. PAPA DUDES BEST BET: Boston +1
