Free NBA Picks, Best Bets, and Parlays for the Eastern Conference Playoffs 4/19/22

There are three more first round games in the NBA playoffs on the schedule for Tuesday. There will be two games in the Western Conference and Atlanta-Miami in the East.

We split our Best Bets yesterday as the Warriors handled Denver and covered easily, but the 76ers throttled the short-handed Raptors and we lost that one. That leaves our Best Bet of the Day record at 78-37 in 2022.

We went 3-0 betting the MoneyLine improving our overall record to 445-219 since Jan.1st.

Let’s check out the Brooklyn-Boston game for tonight.

Atlanta at Miami (-7) Miami leads the series 1-0: Game 1 was an easy win for the Heat as they beat Atlanta 115-91. The Hawks might have been a little tired after having to win two Play-In games, just to get into this first round game. I look for them to play a lot better tonight as they have had some time to get their feet on the ground. Trae Young was held to only 8 points as Atlanta found out what the Heat are all about. Miami is easily the toughest, most physical team in the Eastern conference playoffs and that is what has carried them through all season long. They have balanced scoring and they can beat you in so many ways. Even with an improved effort, I don’t give the Hawks much of a chance tonight. PAPA DUDES BEST BET: Miami -7
