Paging Mr. B....for the FINALS

Ok Sir.....you are up. What are thoughts for this series??? Game 1??

As always...VERY much appreciated! 

Miami will need to use 12 fouls with zeller and love on Joker.

Shot making a must

Has ALREADY Won Big Time on Nuggies WIN TT Over  51'  this year and WC Champs..

As a Denverite, I'm just Happy we're facing Heat with Home Court/Altitude advantage...I  predict he'll follow me to Proverbial Bank playing Nuggies WIN series 4-1,+255, 4-2 +300+,..

4-0..doubt it..going 7 games..no way. ..just my 2 cents 

Have it on good authority Mr B will go Mattress Mack style on the Nuggets.

Appreciate the feedback..that's what it's all about. Not surprised if the HEAT get swept.  

Eager to see how @MrBator thinks about game one flow. Denver with tons of rest and Miami on this adrenaline rush. Should be interesting!

LET'S GO!!!! Please advise on the plays...when available of course.

@Dilemma

 Double on Jokic

@CALB

 Too high of IQ and too good of a passer for that to be the consistent gameplan.  Miami zones well it did not work Vs. Boston very well but they have a great matchup zone. I expect it a lot this series to make joker more of a passer with Heat being able to recover easier than a double. 

Leaning NUGGETS -9....expecting a DD win. What do my peeps say????

@Dilemma

 He¡¯s actually 4-0 last few nights in MLB

It's unfortunate that he doesn't just start his own thread to make it easier to find his WINNING plays....

LOCKED AND LOADED......

NUGGETS  -9

LET'S GO! 

@QBUN

Bator is GOLD in this forum has been for DECADES, anyone that criticizes him is a moron and knows nothing about sports betting. The guy has been money. I think it¡¯s book makers doing it actually 

I'm on the Nuggets -8.5 -110 for $9,900. Last Friday I bet $7,000 to win $4,000 on the Nuggets -175. Today I bet $4,000 to win $18,000 on the Nuggets +450 to win in 6 games. My mistake - and it was a big one - was failing to bet on the Nuggets -120 on Sunday. Placing that bet was essentially a bet that the Heat would win the following night in Boston. I should've drilled that bet, or drilled it on Monday at -125. I have considerably less enthusiasm for this series because I failed to lock in a substantial series bet on the Nuggets. I'm not gonna bother firing on -380. I considered the Nuggets -1.5 games, but the best price that I can see is at DraftKings, and we don't have DraftKings available to us here in Nevada.

Many have mentioned that the Heat have won Game 1 on the road in each of the first three rounds, and that they've actually won their last six Game 1s. Many are offering that info to support a play on the Heat tonight. There's just one problem with that. The Nuggets know this, too. There is no chance that the Nuggets will take this team lightly tonight nor underestimate them in any way because the Heat have proven again and again that they can win playoff games on the road. The Heat have won 6 times on the road in these playoffs. That is a tremendous accomplishment no matter what you think of the teams they defeated. The Nuggets will welcome them in as an equal.

Not nearly as much has been mentioned about what the Nuggets have done in their Game 1s. They led the T-Wolves at halftime by 11 and won by 29. They led the Suns at halftime by 17 and won by 18, and then they led the Lakers at halftime by 18 but won by only 6. That last result should ensure that no matter how well the Nuggets play tonight in the 1st half, they won't slack off in the 2nd half like they did against the Lakers. 

About my Nuggets in 6 bet...I've said both before and throughout these playoffs that no Western conference opponent was going to go into Denver and win. I don't expect the Heat to score a victory at Ball Arena either, but given their outstanding 6-4 playoff road record, I can't rule it out. If the Nuggets win both games at home, I also can't rule out that the Heat can win both of their games at home. I actually hope they do because a 2-2 series heading back to Denver will set me up beautifully to cash with the Nuggets in 6 games. Up until the conference finals sweep of the Lakers, the Nuggets were being derided as a bad road team, but they're not. I think they've proven that by totaling up the second highest number of road wins (4) behind the Heat's 6. I believe the Nuggets will win at least one road game in this series, too. If that doesn't happen in Games 3 and/or 4, then it will happen in Game 6.

Many are picking the Nuggets in 5, but I'm not going for that because the aforementioned DraftKings initially offered that prop at +265, which was much higher than anywhere else. Why was DraftKings offering the Nuggets in 5 at +265 when other books had around +210 or +200? Is it because they're nice? No, they're not nice. They're scum. 

The Nuggets tonight will be playing in the NBA Finals for the first time. In their 47 seasons in the NBA, this franchise and its fan have seen 16 other teams win championships. They've seen 7 of those teams win more than once. They've endured watching the conference bully Lakers advance to The Finals seventeen times and win it ten times. The Nuggets have had four chances to advance past the conference finals and it was the Lakers who blocked them the last three times. But now it's their turn. Their is no overemphasizing what tonight means to the Denver Nuggets. The current group of players and coaches have been around for only a small portion of those 47 years, but they more or less know the history. Their opponent in these Finals is one of those 7 franchises that's won more than once. There is no doubt in my mind which team wants this more. The Nuggets aren't going to be flat after being off since the 22nd and they aren't going to be rusty. They're going to be ready, and I expect to see them pull away after the 1st quarter if not during the 1st quarter.
