Tomorrow brings us our first team to face elimination in the NBA Playoffs, and shockingly, it’s the top team in the Eastern Conference. Here are your NBA predictions and preview for Tuesday, May 13th.
NBA Predictions & Preview For Tuesday, May 13th
Indiana Pacers vs Cleveland Cavaliers
Start Time – 7:00 PM EST
The 64-18 Cleveland Cavaliers are on the edge of the abyss heading into Game 4, down 3-1 to the upstart Indiana Pacers. And the Cavs may be without their top player, as Donovan Mitchell is questionable with a reaggravated ankle injury.
I guess Cleveland can’t have nice things. But whether Cleveland can cover the spread or not is the pertinent question for us degens. I would have this game lined up as Cleveland -10.5 with all hands on deck. I think the Cavs cover tomorrow and live to play another day, whether Mitchell plays or not.
Best Bet: Cleveland -7.5 (-108)
Denver Nuggets vs Oklahoma City Thunder
Start Time – 9:30 PM EST
The Western Conference game tomorrow night is not necessarily do or die, as the series is tied 2-2, but it’s a crucial game nonetheless. The Denver Nuggets already stole one game from the Thunder in Oklahoma City – can they pull off a repeat in Game 5?
I don’t think so, but these are wacky playoffs, so who knows. My line is Oklahoma City -12, so the Thunder gets my money.
Best Bet: Oklahoma City -10 (-108)
Overall Record: 185-153 (55%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $1,602.99
Return on Investment: 5%
