 Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics

The Philadelphia 76ers are set to take on the Boston Celtics in the upcoming Semifinals conference match, and I have a feeling that this will be a great game. Having emerged victorious in their first playoff series against the Brooklyn Nets, the Philadelphia 76ers are currently one of the best teams in the NBA. They boast an impressive postseason scoring record, averaging 103.8 points per game while allowing only 92.5, which is currently the best defensive in the NBA right now. However, the 76ers’ confidence could be shaken by the fact that Joel Embiid, one of their key players, is currently in doubt for the match following a knee injury.

On the other hand, the Boston Celtics are also riding high on a wave of success after defeating the Atlanta Hawks 4-2 in the first round of the playoffs. They come into this match brimming with confidence, averaging 121.2 points while allowing 115.8 in the postseason period. Jayson Tatum has been their leading scorer, averaging an impressive 27.2 points per game.

These two teams have already faced each other four times in the regular season, with the Boston Celtics emerging victorious in three of those matches, while the 76ers only managed to secure one win. Given Embiid’s uncertain status for the match, the Celtics could be in with a good chance of winning.

My Pick: The Boston Celtics to win this game with a point spread of -9.5 @ (-109) with Betsafe.

Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets

The Phoenix Suns suffered a disappointing defeat in the first game of the conference semi-finals, losing 107-125 against the Denver Nuggets. Despite Kevin Durant’s impressive performance with 29 points and Devin Booker’s 27 points and 8 assists, they couldn’t contain Jamal Murray, who scored an impressive 34 points in the game. The Suns have been strong in the postseason, scoring an average of 119.5 points per game while allowing 117.2. Devin Booker has been leading the charge for them as he tends to score an average of 35.5 points per game.

On the other hand, the Denver Nuggets could not have asked for a better start to the semi-finals after winning the Phoenix Suns in a great way. The Nuggets have been averaging 116.0 points per game while allowing only 105.7 in the postseason period with Jamal Murray leading the charge for the Nuggets, with an average of 28.3 points per game.

As the teams prepare for the second game, it will be interesting to see how the Suns respond after their defeat in the first match. The Nuggets, on the other hand, will be coming into the game full of confidence after their strong start to the series. Given the Nuggets’ performance in the first match, they may have the upper hand, and could very well win this one as well.

My Pick: The Denver Nuggets to win this game with a point spread of -4 @ (-112) with BetOBet.
