Celtics vs Cavaliers Quick Bet to Make
Jayson Tatum is our guy for tonight. We are going with him getting at least 10 rebounds. In the last 10 playoff games, Tatum averaged over 10 rebounds. He has gone over this line 3/3 times this year in the regular season against the Cavaliers, grabbing 10, 11 and 13 rebounds.
Last night, Tatum grabbed 11 rebounds as we predicted.
That being said, Tatum getting at least 10 rebounds is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Jayson Tatum over 9.5 rebounds @-115 @FanDuel
New York Knicks vs Indiana Pacers Best Bet
8PM EST
New York, NY
Madison Square Garden
For May 8,2024, we will look at the clash between the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers from New York. The Knicks won the series 4-2 against the 76ers. The Pacers also won the series 4-2 against the undermanned Bucks. In the first game, the Knicks won 121-117 in a hard-fought game. This is a must-win game for the Pacers, if they want to tie this series.
Current Form
The Knicks had a great series against the 76ers. Even though they were without Mitchell Robinson for most of the time, the Knicks adjusted well and were able to defend Embiid very well. In the first game against the Pacers, the Knicks did not have any bench production. Tom Thibodeau had yet again only only an 8-man rotation. Jalen Brunson showed us yet again how good a leader he is. He scored 43 points with 6 rebounds and 6 assists. Donte DiVincenzo and Josh Hart also stepped up. The question remains if the players are exhausted after game 2. Josh Hard played the whole 48 minutes, without any breaks.
The Pacers won the series against the Bucks 4-2. We have to mention that the Bucks were without Giannis Antetokounmpo in this series. Damian Lillard also got injured in the third game, and came back just for the last game. In the first game against the Knicks, Tyrese Haliburton had a terrible shooting night. Pascal Siakam also did not shoot well, and we believe that that is the main reason why they lost the first game.

Knicks vs Pacers Best Bet to Make
Looking at the first game, the Knicks won without any bench production. We believe that McBride will step up in this game, and score much-needed points from the bench. Jalen Brunson will be the best player on the court and lead the Knicks to the victory.
That being said, the Knicks winning is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: the Knicks winning @1.53 @bet365
