Well done to the Lakers, I sincerely congratulate you on winning and reaching the conference final! No matter how hard Steph tried to pull this series out, he did not receive help from his players, this season objectively Golden State did not shine. It will now be possible to watch the Denver series with interest. Jokic is very good.

Denver - Los Angeles will be a continuation and I would not be able to name a contender in this duel until a few games have been played. So going forward, I consider Denver to be a bit more likely.
Boston's victory away from home surprised me, and perhaps because of this, today I consider them more likely to advance.

The first Nuggets - Lakers game is coming today, maybe it will be a more defensive game under 224 points.

I don't know, I think it will be a very productive game. Jokic is not easy to stop, and I think he will score 30+ points. In addition, the Los Angeles Lakers are playing at home, will want to please their fans and will attack quickly. In general, who do you think will win this match and which team will reach the finals?

I'm expecting a more defensive, more combative game in the first game, but of course it could still be a points tsunami, since the first game is at the Ball Arena in Denver (at least according to Sofascore). ;)
I still expect Denver to win in this first game, but how the duel will turn out can only be guessed after maybe 2-3 games ... maybe.

Sportsbetting seems to be down on pokerstars--can't stay logged on and can't place bets. Anyone else with this problem?

They are having some problems, especially for mobile users.

With such a shooting efficiency percentage, it's no wonder the points were so high. The Lakers came up nicely towards the end to build on, but Denver can learn from this as a big lead was gone by the end of the game.

Today, Boston is absolutely the favorite, but I'm cautious against the Heat as long as Butler is there.

Today I read that experts give no more than 10% for the Miami Heat to reach the finals, and 90% for the Boston Celtics, respectively. I strongly disagree with this, although I also think that Boston is the obvious favorite, but I think the Miami team will give a decent fight and maybe this confrontation will reach the seventh game

The second game in Denver was already very close, the two games in Los Angeles could be anything ...

Despite the Lakers defeat and the 2-0 score, the fight was not over yet, the second game was close to winning, but could not. If LeBron and the team lose game 3 or 4, they won't stand a chance. Jokic's statistics are amazing.

Watching this game, I was already sure that the Lakers would win, but Jamal Murray thought differently). He scored 23 points in the fourth quarter and left the other team no chance.

Today, the Miami Heat sensationally defeated the Boston Celtics again. The Miami team made a very good breakthrough in the last quarter and the score in the series is 2-0. Do you think the team from Boston still has a chance to reach the finals, given that Miami Heat will play their next games at home?

Boston plays well on the road. Win Games 3, 5 and 6 to reach Game 7. Will the Celtics have any energy left for Game 7? I don't know? Should be an exciting next 2 games in Miami! Enjoy!

The Heat was fantastic again, today I think something similar with the Lakers, I think they can win their first home game today, but it will be very difficult.

Well, the Lakers found themselves in an almost hopeless situation. Denver is incredibly strong in all areas.
If the Heat win today, the duel will be decided there as well ... I think they will win.

I'm a Miami Heat fan. But they are still considered underdogs at 2-0. I think the Boston Celtics will win tonight, but the entire series will be won by the Miami team, the score will be 4-2 in favor of the Heat.
