Milwaukee Bucks vs. Boston Celtics Preview and Predictions 04-15-2018

14th April 2018 by Gracenote
the boston celtics endured a regular season filled with injuries and were barely above .500 over the final three months. the second-seeded celtics hope to turn the page from some trying times when they host the milwaukee bucks on sunday in game 1 of a best-of-seven eastern conference first-round series.

boston, which lost star forward gordon hayward (ankle) minutes into the first game of the season, will be without all-star guard kyrie irving (knee) for the playoffs and defensive stopper marcus smart for another two weeks, if it lasts that long. "i think the way i look at it is, whether we were 100 percent with all our players or not, we're coming in really focused in what we need to do and really just focused on game 1," all-star forward al horford told reporters. "i really want the guys to understand you're not going to win the series in the first game, you're not going to lose it. it's just being able to stay in the moment and just enjoy this." the seventh-seeded bucks split four meetings with the celtics this season and they have the best active player on the two teams by a wide margin in forward giannis antetokounmpo, who averaged 33.5 points and 10.8 rebounds in the season series. this is the sixth playoff series between the two teams but the first since the 1987 eastern conference semifinals
tv: 1 p.m. et, tnt, fs wisconsin (milwaukee), nbcs boston
about the bucks (44-38): milwaukee is in the playoffs in consecutive years for the first time since 2003 and 2004 and is looking to snap a string of seven straight first-round exits, including a six-game setback against toronto last spring. "we're a better team than last year, more mature," antetokounmpo told the milwaukee journal sentinel. "we're older and hopefully we can be focused as a team because i think that's what sometimes lacks on our team. there's some stages of the game that we're not focused. i don't know why that comes to our team, but hopefully this year when we get to the playoffs we can be focused for 48 minutes and do what we got to do and that's getting the job done." the bucks did not have jabari parker in the playoffs last year due to an acl tear but the 23-year-old forward is all the way back from the injury and averaged 19.5 points in april.
about the celtics (55-27): boston will lean heavily on second-year guard jaylen brown and rookie jayson tatum for scoring, while terry rozier - who took over at point guard when irving was lost for the season - will be trying to prove he can run the show in a more pressure-packed environment. "it sucks to see your brothers go down ... but, like i said, it's not over," rozier told reporters. "it's not going to be an easy road for our opponents. they still have to go through us. we're ready." reserve center greg monroe, who spent two-plus seasons with the bucks before being traded to phoenix in november, has become a key contributor and averaged 13.5 points on 63.3 percent shooting and 7.7 rebounds in april.

walk-offs

1. bucks pg eric bledsoe averaged 24.7 points in a six-game run from march 30 through april 9, and he was 8-of-9 from the floor in a win over boston in the middle of that stretch.

2. rozier shot 10-of-38 from the floor over his last four games of the regular season.

3. antetokounmpo averaged 24.8 points on 53.6 percent shooting in the first round against the raptors last season.

prediction: celtics 107, bucks 105

Indiana Pacers vs. Cleveland Cavaliers Preview and Predictions 04-15-2018

14th April 2018 by Gracenote
the cleveland cavaliers are hitting the playoffs and trying to earn their fourth consecutive trip to the nba finals but will be doing it from an unfamiliar position - fourth place. the cavaliers will have homecourt advantage in the first round as they try to carry the momentum from a strong finish in the regular season into game 1 against the visiting no. 5 seed indiana pacers on sunday.

cleveland revamped its roster at the trade deadline and battled through some inconsistency with the new rotations and injured players until putting everything together and finishing the regular season with wins in 11 of the last 14 games. "the most important thing, i think, is competing and playing hard," cavaliers coach tyronn lue told reporters. "i think you get deflections, get a steal, get an easy basket. the easiest way to play your first time in the playoffs is just playing hard. i think the fans appreciate that, guys on the floor, taking charges, that's what gets you motivated. that's what gets the crowd motivated, and it helps you ease into the game better." the pacers were a surprising contender for homecourt in the east behind all-star guard victor oladipo, who is looking forward to leading a team into the playoffs. "we've just got to go out there and play at a high level," oladipo told reporters. "it's not going to be easy, but it ain't been easy all year for us. we've got to go out there with that mentality and try to win it. that's what we're trying to do. we're trying to go make it close and have fun, we're trying to win."

tv: 3:30 p.m. et, abc
about the pacers (48-34): indiana was swept in the first round of the playoffs by the cavaliers last spring but is a different team this time around thanks to the presence of oladipo, who was acquired last summer in the deal that sent paul george to oklahoma city. oladipo led the team in scoring at an average of 23.1 points and is part of a roster that enjoys being around one another. "great group of guys, man," point guard darren collison - another new addition this season - told the team's website. "everybody is great people. it's one thing to have great players, but i've been on a lot of teams. when you play with great people, it makes everybody's job easier. everybody's listening. nobody has egos. you come in the locker room and everybody's smiling. it's positivity. we trust each other."

about the cavaliers (50-32): cleveland's advantage over every other team in the east is the presence of superstar forward lebron james, who played in all 82 regular-season games for the first time in his career. james, 33, averaged career highs in rebounds (8.6) and assists (9.1) while adding 27.5 points on 54.2 percent shooting. "has it been my best year? it's the best i've felt all season and i've got the numbers to back it up and i've got the wins to back it up as well," james told reporters. "me, personally, i've just tried to be available to my teammates every single night and do everything that i could to win ball games. either by scoring, by rebounding, by defending, by assisting, taking charges, whatever the case may be. statistically it all speaks for itself."

buzzer beaters

1. cavaliers sg rodney hood (achilles) sat out the final two games of the regular season but is expected to be available on sunday.

2. pacers c domantas sabonis closed the regular season strong with 30 points last sunday at charlotte and a double-double in the season finale on tuesday.

3. indiana took three of the four meetings this season, though all four came before cleveland remade its roster at the trade deadline.

prediction: cavaliers 121, pacers 113

Utah Jazz vs. Oklahoma City Thunder Preview and Predictions 04-15-2018

14th April 2018 by Gracenote
the utah jazz were one of the hottest teams in the nba over the final two-plus months of the regular season and they'll try to carry that momentum into the playoffs, which begins with a visit to the oklahoma city thunder for game 1 of their best-of-seven western conference first-round series on sunday. the jazz were 19-28 after a loss at atlanta on jan. 22 but stormed back with a 29-6 mark down the stretch to seize the fifth seed in the west.

"it's only brighter from that point," center rudy gobert told the salt lake tribune of the moment when the turnaround began. "i looked at our team, our organization, and i thought, 'why not turn things around?' we were 19-28, but we had everything in our hands. we knew we were going to turn." utah leans on dynamic rookie guard donovan mitchell, while the fourth-seeded thunder boast a trio of veteran stars led by russell westbrook, who averaged a triple-double for the second straight season. the reigning nba mvp did the same in helping oklahoma city win three of four matchups with the jazz, averaging 22.8 points, 11.3 rebounds and 10 assists in the season series. the thunder won 14 of their final 21 games and much of that late success came with the early-march signing of veteran corey brewer, who is questionable for the opener due to a sprained knee.
tv: 6:30 p.m. et, tnt, at&t sportsnet rocky mountain (utah), fs oklahoma
about the jazz (48-34): utah's turnaround roughly coincided with gobert's return from a knee injury and he was dominant at times during the stretch run, averaging 16.6 points on 68.2 percent shooting to go along with 12.7 rebounds and 2.3 blocks in march. "as a competitor, it's always hard to watch from the sideline," he told the tribune. "but watching them every night really gave me the motivation. when i came back, i really felt like we could do something special." mitchell averaged 20.5 points in his first season and did not show any signs of hitting a rookie wall by scoring above his average in 12 of the final 14 games of the regular season.
about the thunder (48-34): following a first-round exit last season during westbrook's mvp campaign, oklahoma city brought in forwards paul george and carmelo anthony for support, and while it took time to develop, a strong finish has the team feeling pretty good entering the postseason. "this is part of kind of why we wanted to all come together, because we saw an opportunity," anthony told reporters. "this is actually a part of the big picture. this is the journey; to be able to accomplish what we came together to accomplish." while westbrook rallied late to produce his historic triple-double average, george heated up offensively down the stretch while averaging 27.6 points and shooting 40.7 percent from 3-point range in april.

buzzer beaters

1. the season series was over by dec. 23, with oklahoma city winning three straight over utah in a 19-day span that month.


2. westbrook averaged 37.4 points, 11.6 rebounds, 10.8 assists and 2.4 steals in five games of the first-round series loss to the houston rockets last season.

3. this marks the first meeting in the playoffs between the teams since 2000, when the thunder franchise was located in seattle.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Houston Rockets Preview and Predictions 04-15-2018

14th April 2018 by Gracenote
the minnesota timberwolves needed to scratch their way to an overtime victory on the final day of the regular season to clinch a playoff spot - the franchise's first since kevin garnett led the team to the 2004 western conference finals. the timberwolves' reward for that strong finish is a date with the nba-best houston rockets, who host game 1 of the first-round series on sunday.

minnesota has been in playoff mode for well over a week after winning its last three regular-season games to stay alive and finally clinch a spot in the postseason, with all-star swingman jimmy butler leading the way. "let's keep it going," butler told reporters. "it's no different now. it's basketball. there's no pressure on us. we've just got to go out and hoop." the pressure would be on the top-seeded rockets, who set a franchise record with 65 wins during the regular season and appear poised to disrupt the golden state-cleveland lock on the nba finals. "we've enjoyed the year. it's been a great year," houston coach mike d'antoni told reporters. "now it's time for the second phase of it. i think everybody's anxious to get started."

tv: 9 p.m. et, tnt, fs north (minnesota), at&t sportsnet southwest (houston)
about the timberwolves (47-35): minnesota hovered around the third or fourth spot in the west for much of the season before falling off when butler went down with a knee injury. butler's return sparked the team down the stretch, and the no. 8 seed and a date with the rockets is not about to intimidate the timberwolves. "we're a talented group, we got a lot of talent on this team," point guard jeff teague, whose atlanta squad took top-seeded indiana to seven games in the 2014 postseason, told the minneapolis star tribune. "in the playoffs, you need someone who can make shots and take over games at times. i think we have a lot of people on this team who can take over games and have moments. it's all about having fun now. there's no pressure on us. we got in, eighth seed. i've been there and it's a lot of fun. when you're the eighth seed, i promise you it's a lot of fun."

about the rockets (65-17): houston is led by superstar guard james harden, who is the odds-on favorite to win his first mvp award this season after leading the league in scoring at an average of 30.4 points and adding 8.8 assists. the difference for the team this time around in the playoffs is that harden has another future hall of famer in the backcourt with the addition of point guard chris paul, who is in awe of his teammate. "you just never get this opportunity too often in your career to play with somebody like james," paul told reporters. "you get a chance to appreciate greatness. what he's doing on a nightly basis and stuff like that, it's crazy, and i'm grateful that i get the opportunity to play alongside him."

buzzer beaters

1. rockets pf ryan anderson (ankle) is questionable for sunday while pf luc mbah a moute (shoulder) could miss the entire series.

2. minnesota c karl-anthony towns led the nba with 68 double-doubles while averaging 21.3 points and 12.3 rebounds.

3. houston took all four meetings in the regular season with harden averaging 27.3 points and 10.3 assists.

Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Philadelphia Flyers Preview and Predictions 04-15-2018

14th April 2018 by Gracenote
the philadelphia flyers emphatically flipped the script from a series-opening blowout by posting a lopsided victory of their own, evening the eastern conference first-round set versus the pittsburgh penguins at one win apiece. the flyers aim to set the narrative on sunday afternoon when the keystone state rivals head east to the city of brotherly love for game 3.

"i know this: we just got it down to a five-game series and we introduced ourselves into this series (on friday)," philadelphia coach dave hakstol said following his club's resounding 5-1 victory. sean couturier was instrumental in the triumph, scoring what proved to be the game-winning goal and highlighting his two-assist performance with a blind, backhanded between-the-legs feed to rookie nolan patrick for a power-play tally. the 25-year-old logged 27:15 of ice time -- more than nine minutes more than any flyers forward -- and 5:01 of short-handed time, which played a key role in pittsburgh's top-ranked power play failing on all four of its opportunities in game 2 to drop to 1-for-8 in the series. "we worked (on it) today," said center evgeni malkin, who had an nhl third-best 38 power-play points (14 goals, 24 assists). "we understand we have great players on the ice. we need to support each other, win the battles in the corners. we know how we play. shoot the puck a little bit more."
tv: 3 p.m. et, nbc, cbc, tvas
about the penguins: kris letang is expected to play on sunday, one day after receiving what coach mike sullivan deemed a "maintenance day" at practice following a hit from flyers captain claude giroux that left the defenseman with a bloodied left hand. justin schultz set up forward patric hornqvist's goal in the third period, giving the defenseman five assists in his last four outings. fellow blue-liner brian dumoulin also had an assist for his third point of the series, a significant offensive performance considering the 26-year-old had just 18 points during the season.
about the flyers: brian elliott has been taken to task by both the opposition and several audible members of the philadelphia faithful after getting shredded in two of his first three outings following a near-two-month absence following core muscle surgery. the 33-year-old goaltender answered some of his critics following his early hook on wednesday with a 34-save performance in game 2, highlighted by denying pittsburgh superstar captain sidney crosby on a breakaway to preserve a two-goal lead in the second period. "(elliott) played a great game. for all you doubters out there, there ya go," giroux told the courier post.

overtime

1. hornqvist has recorded 11 points (seven goals, four assists) in his last nine contests.

2. philadelphia d ivan provorov notched a pair of assists to give him nine points (three goals, six assists) in his past eight.

3. the penguins are 15-6-2 in their last 23 regular-season games at the wells fargo center.

Winnipeg Jets vs. Minnesota Wild Preview and Predictions 04-15-2018

14th April 2018 by Gracenote
the minnesota wild lost only six home games in regulation this season, but need far more than a change in venue to stop the winnipeg jets as the western conference first-round series shifts south of the border for game 3 on sunday. the jets completely dominated minnesota in nearly every aspect of a 4-1 victory in game 2 friday, outshooting the wild 44-17, holding minnesota without a shot on goal for more than 20 minutes and completely exerting their will physically.

"the first game was amazing, a pretty cool experience," winnipeg forward nikolaj ehlers told the media after recording an assist and finishing with a plus-2 rating in helping the jets take a 2-0 series lead. "we played ok, but we took a huge step (friday). now we want more steps." a necessary step for minnesota to try and make this a series is to provide goaltender devin dubnyk some help, as he has faced 84 shots on goal through two games amid relentless pressure from all four winnipeg lines. dubnyk registered 40 saves in game 2 and kept the wild within one goal entering the third period for the second consecutive contest, but the jets blew it open in the final period and outhit minnesota 38-23. "we couldn't answer their momentum," minnesota captain mikko koivu told reporters. "they got the pucks deep and pressured our (defensemen) and we couldn't come with passes and clear the zone like we usually do. that's our strength and we've got to find that."
tv: 7 p.m. et, usa, tva, sportsnet (winnipeg), fs north plus (minnesota)
about the jets: defenseman dustin byfuglien led winnipeg with eight hits, and his jarring smash of koivu early in the second period ignited the jets -- whose flight to minnesota on saturday was diverted to duluth, then sent back to winnipeg due to a snowstorm. the defensive pairing of tyler myers and ben chiarot each finished plus-3 as myers scored the game's opening goal en route to a two-point night and chiarot added an assist with three hits and three blocked shots. with forward mathieu perreault sidelined for game 2 with an upper-body injury suffered in the opener, rookie forward jack roslovic drew into the third line and responded with two assists and a plus-2 rating in 10:24 of ice time.
about the wild: forward zach parise scored for the second time in two games, but lamented the lack of minnesota offense in telling reporters after game 2, "you're not going to win many getting 14 shots, 15 shots, 20 shots. there's just not a lot of room for error." the wild have mustered 37 shots on goal in 120 minutes, with a 12-minute drought in the third period in the opener and a 20:03 drought spanning the end of the second and most of the third period friday. rookie forward jordan greenway played well in his 13:50 of ice time in game 2, and was moved temporarily onto a line with eric staal and mikael granlund in the third period.

overtime

1. wild coach bruce boudreau sat d matt dumba out of saturday's practice, after the 23-year-old averaged 28:31 of ice time in the first two games - nearly five minutes more than his regular-season average.

2. parise's goal friday marked his 13th playoff tally with the wild, surpassing marian gaborik's franchise record, and the power-play marker matches gaborik's franchise mark (five).

3. jets g connor hellebuyck, whose chance at a shutout in his second playoff game was spoiled by parise's goal with 45 seconds left, has stopped 34-of-37 shots in the series.

prediction: jets 4, wild 3

Columbus Blue Jackets vs. Washington Capitals Preview and Predictions 04-15-2018

14th April 2018 by Gracenote
the washington capitals have insisted that they have less pressure this postseason than in years past, a lighter weight perhaps as a result of failing to win the presidents' trophy for the first time in three years. after winning 12 of 15 heading into the playoffs, the capitals look to avoid dropping back-to-back tilts on their home ice on sunday when they host the columbus blue jackets in game 2 of their eastern conference first-round series.

defenseman john carlson had three assists in the series opener, but washington let an early two-goal lead evaporate and a third-period advantage go by the boards in thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to columbus. "it's not ideal, but we've been through a lot of different situations here. the most important one is the next one, and we've got to play a lot more detailed and better throughout the game," the 28-year-old carlson said. former calder trophy winner artemi panarin (franchise-record 82 points) scored 6:02 into overtime to cap his three-point performance for columbus, which doesn't intend to rest of its laurels despite posting a gaudy 14-2-2 in its last 18 contests. "just because you win one doesn't make it good enough," blue jackets captain nick foligno said. "you need four in a series. we have a great opportunity in front of us against a team that's going to come out just as hungry and hard, and it's going to be an even harder game than it was in game 1."
tv: 7:30 p.m. et, nbcsn, sportsnet360, tvas2, fs ohio (columbus), nbcs washington
about the blue jackets: foligno will join boone jenner and thomas vanek on the second line in place of alexander wennberg, who has been ruled out of game 2 after sustaining an undisclosed injury on a hit from washington's tom wilson during the series opener. "it's a big loss up the middle, especially for our line," vanek said. "i think we were going pretty well and i thought his game was going well too. ... you're going to lose guys. some other guys have to step up." former first-round pick sonny milano is expected to be inserted into the lineup and skate on the third line with brandon dubinsky and josh anderson.

about the capitals: former vezina trophy winner braden holtby will remain on the proverbial sideline as philipp grubauer has been confirmed to start in game 2. "there was nothing in (thursday's) game that you'd say, 'why didn't you make a change?'" capitals coach barry trotz said of grubauer, who has posted a 2.06 goals-against average and .933 save percentage in his last 31 games. "philipp's been really good, and i thought in that game, we had the game and we kept letting them off the floor." while grubauer will remain in the lineup, fourth-line center jay beagle (upper body) is expected to draw in for the first time since april 1.

overtime

1. columbus g sergei bobrovsky, who is a two-time vezina trophy winner, is 11-1-1 in his last 13 starts.

2. washington f t.j. oshie missed practice with a maintenance day on saturday while d michal kempny expects to play on sunday after sustaining an upper-body injury during the first period of game 1.

3. the blue jackets' 25th-ranked power play scored twice in game 1 to increase its total to nine in its last six contests.

Vegas Golden Knights vs. Los Angeles Kings Preview and Predictions 04-15-2018

14th April 2018 by Gracenote
what happens in vegas stays in vegas? the los angeles kings certainly hope this is the case. after dropping the first two games of their western conference first-round series to the expansion golden knights, the kings hope a return home will enable them to turn the tables on the pacific division champions and avoid falling into a 3-0 hole on sunday night at the staples center.

vegas held serve in stirring fashion at t-mobile arena, following up a tense 1-0 victory in the series opener with an even more dramtic win in game 2, prevailing 2-1 in double overtime on erik haula's goal. "it's a fun series right now," golden knights coach gerard gallant said. "fun for us because we're up 2-0 obviously. i'm sure they're not too happy right now, but we're going back to their building and we know it's going to be a battle back there." star defenseman drew doughty will return from a one-game suspension for the kings, who are not showing any signs of panic despite losing the longest game in franchise history. "it's not devastating," los angeles coach john stevens said. "we expended a lot of energy but it doesn't matter if you win in regulation or in quadruple overtime, it still counts as one. they won their two home games so we have to go home and get to work."
tv: 10:30 p.m. et, nbcsn, cbc, tvas, at&t sportsnet-rocky mountain (vegas), fs west (los angeles)
about the golden knights: haula scored a combined 29 goals over his previous two seasons with the minnesota wild and matched that in his first campaign with vegas, but nothing could equal the feeling of the double-ot game-winner. "it's one of the best feelings in sports, i think, is finishing the game in that fashion," said haula, the team's second-leading goal scorer. "it was a long game, and we had a lot of guys who played a lot of minutes. it's rewarding to come out on top." alex tuch scored the other goal, the golden knights' first on the power play against the kings this season.
about the kings: los angeles cannot ask for much more from goaltender jonathan quick, who turned aside 81 of 84 shots in las vegas and set a franchise playoff record with 54 saves in game 2, breaking his own mark of 51. "in my opinion, he's the best goalie in the world," said kings defenseman paul ladue, who scored his team's lone goal. "that was unbelievable tonight and you know we've got to work harder to play better for him. he worked way to hard tonight and he saw way too many shots." tyler toffoli, a 24-goal scorer during the regular season, has one assist in his last seven playoff games.

overtime

1. vegas g marc-andre fleury has stopped 59 of 60 shots in the series.

2. doughty collected 35 of his 60 points at home this season.

3. golden knights c david perron (undisclosed) told reporters saturday that he felt better and hopes to play in the series.

March has this mount running well coming into today. 3 strong Equibase speed figs in most recent events make me say this thoroughbred will be tough in today's race.

Vulnerable Contenders: #3 RUN LIKE RHETT (ML=2/1), #2 JUST NIK (ML=8/1),

RUN LIKE RHETT - Tough to like the downward moving flow (92/85/75) of speed ratings. Didn't hit the board on Mar 17th at Santa Anita. Followed it up with another less than stellar outing. JUST NIK - Hard to play this thoroughbred out of the Feb 24th event. Only faced maidens in that one.

#10 ROCKET FUEL (ML=5/1)
#2 JAY MAKES US LAUGH (ML=6/1)
#4 TRICKONOMICS (ML=12/1)
#5 EASTER MORN (ML=4/1)


ROCKET FUEL - Hasn't run at today's trip recently but does have a rating garnered last time he tried this distance good enough to win. I like this horse. Should be familiar with this level since he ran against the same type last out at Santa Anita. Last ran at Santa Anita and finished fourth. Reviewing his past performance lines, I see he was close at the end, within 5 of the winner. JAY MAKES US LAUGH - I think the shorter trip will help this gelding stay the trip. Stute brings him right back. I suggest you stick with this live gelding. Comes out of a last contest against 'open' company on March 31st and faces what I believe are easier 'state breds' today. This horse has increased his speed ratings from a fig of 92 to 94 to 104 in a row. Have to like the way Stute has raced this gelding back into shape off the layoff. Horse is well spotted in this sprint and I think he'll run well today. TRICKONOMICS - Strong return on investment for this rider and handler tandem. Trainer, Bonde, has been deliberate with this gelding off the layoff. Look for a solid effort today. EASTER MORN - Has unearthed a great spot today.

Vulnerable Contenders: #11 SWISS MINISTER (ML=7/2), #1 HARDCORE TROUBADOR (ML=5/1), #6 SOUTHERN WARLORD (ML=8/1),

SWISS MINISTER - May bounce off of that last bang up job. HARDCORE TROUBADOR - Exhibited indications of physical problems in the affair on March 4th at Los Alamitos (Quarter Hor. SOUTHERN WARLORD - Not easy to play this racer this time around. Make him show you something in a sprint race before you play him in a race of 5 1/2 furlongs. Speed kills. Plenty of early speed in this affair compromises this horse's hopes.

Sunday's NBA Playoffs betting preview and odds

The four remaining first round series of the NBA Playoffs tip off on Sunday, which includes the beginning of Lebron's quest to advance to the Finals for an eighth consecutive year when he and the Cavs host the Pacers.

Milwaukee Bucks at Boston Celtics (-4, 201.5)

The Boston Celtics endured a regular season filled with injuries and were barely above .500 over the final three months. The second-seeded Celtics hope to turn the page from some trying times when they host the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday in Game 1 of a best-of-seven Eastern Conference first-round series.

ABOUT THE BUCKS (44-38, 34-43-5 ATS, 46-35-1 O/U): Milwaukee is in the playoffs in consecutive years for the first time since 2003 and 2004 and is looking to snap a string of seven straight first-round exits, including a six-game setback against Toronto last spring. "We're a better team than last year, more mature," Antetokounmpo told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "We're older and hopefully we can be focused as a team because I think that's what sometimes lacks on our team. There's some stages of the game that we're not focused. I don't know why that comes to our team, but hopefully this year when we get to the playoffs we can be focused for 48 minutes and do what we got to do and that's getting the job done." The Bucks did not have Jabari Parker in the playoffs last year due to an ACL tear but the 23-year-old forward is all the way back from the injury and averaged 19.5 points in April.

ABOUT THE CELTICS (55-27, 50-30-2 ATS, 43-38-1 O/U): With no Kyrie Irving, Gordon Hayward and Marcus Smart, Boston will lean heavily on second-year guard Jaylen Brown and rookie Jayson Tatum for scoring, while Terry Rozier - who took over at point guard when Irving was lost for the season - will be trying to prove he can run the show in a more pressure-packed environment. "It sucks to see your brothers go down ... but, like I said, it's not over," Rozier told reporters. "It's not going to be an easy road for our opponents. They still have to go through us. We're ready." Reserve center Greg Monroe, who spent two-plus seasons with the Bucks before being traded to Phoenix in November, has become a key contributor and averaged 13.5 points on 63.3 percent shooting and 7.7 rebounds in April.

SERIES PRICE (PER PINNACLE):

http://i66.tinypic.com/2z9i5ja.jpg

BETTING ACTION AND LINE MOVES: The Celtics opened Game 1 as 3.5-point home favorites and have been bet up slightly to the current number of -4. The total has seen considerably more movement dropping 3.5-points from 205 to 201.5. Despite the downward movement, the Over is getting 52 percent of wagers according to our Covers Consensu. Bettors are giving the edge to the home-side Celtics here, with them seeing 55 percent of wagers. Check out the complete line history here.

INJURY REPORT:

Bucks - No injuries to report.

Celtics - PG T. Rozier (Probable, finger), PG M. Smart (Out, thumb), PG K. Irving (Out, knee), PF D. Theis (Out, knee), SF G. Hayward (Out, ankle).

MATCHUP CHART:

http://i64.tinypic.com/1zp4o5e.jpg

TRENDS:

* Bucks are 4-1 ATS in their last five road games.
* Celtics are 5-1 ATS in their last six home games.
* Over is 9-1 in Bucks last 10 vs. Eastern Conference opponents.
* Over is 4-0 in Celtics last four overall.
* Over is 8-1-1 in the last 10 meetings in Boston.




Indiana Pacers at Cleveland Cavaliers (-6.5, 212.5)

The Cleveland Cavaliers are hitting the playoffs and trying to earn their fourth consecutive trip to the NBA Finals but will be doing it from an unfamiliar position - fourth place. The Cavaliers will have homecourt advantage in the first round as they try to carry the momentum from a strong finish in the regular season into Game 1 against the visiting No. 5 seed Indiana Pacers on Sunday.

ABOUT THE PACERS (48-34, 47-35 ATS, 32-49-1 O/U): Indiana was swept in the first round of the playoffs by the Cavaliers last spring but is a different team this time around thanks to the presence of Oladipo, who was acquired last summer in the deal that sent Paul George to Oklahoma City. Oladipo led the team in scoring at an average of 23.1 points and is part of a roster that enjoys being around one another. "Great group of guys, man," point guard Darren Collison - another new addition this season - told the team's website. "Everybody is great people. It's one thing to have great players, but I've been on a lot of teams. When you play with great people, it makes everybody's job easier. Everybody's listening. Nobody has egos. You come in the locker room and everybody's smiling. It's positivity. We trust each other."

ABOUT THE CAVALIERS (50-32, 32-49-1 ATS, 39-41-2 O/U): Cleveland's advantage over every other team in the East is the presence of superstar forward LeBron James, who played in all 82 regular-season games for the first time in his career. James, 33, averaged career highs in rebounds (8.6) and assists (9.1) while adding 27.5 points on 54.2 percent shooting. "Has it been my best year? It's the best I've felt all season and I've got the numbers to back it up and I've got the wins to back it up as well," James told reporters. "Me, personally, I've just tried to be available to my teammates every single night and do everything that I could to win ball games. Either by scoring, by rebounding, by defending, by assisting, taking charges, whatever the case may be. Statistically it all speaks for itself."

Utah Jazz at Oklahoma City Thunder (-3.5, 206)

The Utah Jazz were one of the hottest teams in the NBA over the final two-plus months of the regular season and they'll try to carry that momentum into the playoffs, which begins with a visit to the Oklahoma City Thunder for Game 1 of their best-of-seven Western Conference first-round series on Sunday. The Jazz were 19-28 after a loss at Atlanta on Jan. 22 but stormed back with a 29-6 mark down the stretch to seize the fifth seed in the West.

ABOUT THE JAZZ (48-34, 43-39 ATS, 39-42-1 O/U): Utah's turnaround roughly coincided with Gobert's return from a knee injury and he was dominant at times during the stretch run, averaging 16.6 points on 68.2 percent shooting to go along with 12.7 rebounds and 2.3 blocks in March. "As a competitor, it's always hard to watch from the sideline," he told the Tribune. "But watching them every night really gave me the motivation. When I came back, I really felt like we could do something special." Mitchell averaged 20.5 points in his first season and did not show any signs of hitting a rookie wall by scoring above his average in 12 of the final 14 games of the regular season.

ABOUT THE THUNDER (48-34, 34-47-1 ATS, 36-46 O/U): Following a first-round exit last season during Russell Westbrook's MVP campaign, Oklahoma City brought in forwards Paul George and Carmelo Anthony for support, and while it took time to develop, a strong finish has the team feeling pretty good entering the postseason. "This is part of kind of why we wanted to all come together, because we saw an opportunity," Anthony told reporters. "This is actually a part of the big picture. This is the journey; to be able to accomplish what we came together to accomplish." While Westbrook rallied late to produce his historic triple-double average, George heated up offensively down the stretch while averaging 27.6 points and shooting 40.7 percent from 3-point range in April.

SERIES PRICE (PER PINNACLE):

http://i63.tinypic.com/qqaa8k.jpg

BETTING ACTION AND LINE MOVES: The Thunder opened this matchup as 3.5-point home faves and were briefly bet to -3 before returning to the opening number. The total opened at 205 and is up slightly to 206. Despite little movement, bettors are giving the edge to the Thunder here, with 57 percent of wagers backing them, according to our Covers Consensus. The total has been bet evenly with the Over seeing 52 percent of wagers.

INJURY REPORT:

Jazz - SF T. Sefolosha (Out, knee).

Thunder - SG C. Brewer (Probable, knee), SG A. Abrines (Questionable, concussion), A. Roberson (Out, knee).

MATCHUP CHART:

http://i66.tinypic.com/2nq73mv.jpg

TRENDS:

* Jazz are 12-2 ATS in their last 14 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
* Thunder are 0-4-1 ATS in their last five home games.
* Over is 6-1 in Jazz last seven road games.
* Under is 8-2 in Thunder last 10 overall.
* Under is 21-7 in the last 28 meetings.




Minnesota Timberwolves at Houston Rockets (-11.5, 216.5)

The Minnesota Timberwolves needed to scratch their way to an overtime victory on the final day of the regular season to clinch a playoff spot - the franchise's first since Kevin Garnett led the team to the 2004 Western Conference finals. The Timberwolves' reward for that strong finish is a date with the NBA-best Houston Rockets, who host Game 1 of the first-round series on Sunday.

ABOUT THE TIMBERWOLVES (47-35, 37-42-3 ATS, 45-36-1 O/U): Minnesota hovered around the third or fourth spot in the West for much of the season before falling off when Butler went down with a knee injury. Butler's return sparked the team down the stretch, and the No. 8 seed and a date with the Rockets is not about to intimidate the Timberwolves. "We’re a talented group, we got a lot of talent on this team,” point guard Jeff Teague, whose Atlanta squad took top-seeded Indiana to seven games in the 2014 postseason, told the Minneapolis Star Tribune. "In the playoffs, you need someone who can make shots and take over games at times. I think we have a lot of people on this team who can take over games and have moments. It’s all about having fun now. There’s no pressure on us. We got in, eighth seed. I’ve been there and it’s a lot of fun. When you're the eighth seed, I promise you it’s a lot of fun."

ABOUT THE ROCKETS (65-17, 41-40-1 ATS, 33-48-1 O/U): Houston, which set a franchise record with 65 wins, is led by superstar guard James Harden, who is the odds-on favorite to win his first MVP award this season after leading the league in scoring at an average of 30.4 points and adding 8.8 assists. The difference for the team this time around in the playoffs is that Harden has another future Hall of Famer in the backcourt with the addition of point guard Chris Paul, who is in awe of his teammate. "You just never get this opportunity too often in your career to play with somebody like James," Paul told reporters. "You get a chance to appreciate greatness. What he's doing on a nightly basis and stuff like that, it's crazy, and I'm grateful that I get the opportunity to play alongside him."

SERIES PRICE (PER PINNACLE):

http://i66.tinypic.com/1424f85.jpg

BETTING ACTION AND LINE MOVES: The Rockets opened this matchup as 9.5-point home favorites, but bettors did't think that was enough, moving the line all the way to -11.5. The total meanwhile, has dropped two points to sit at the current number of 216.5. Even with the line moving in the Rockets favor, 53 percent of wagers are on teh T-wolves according to our Covers Consensus, while the total has also seen reverse line movement as a big 68 percent of wagers are on the Over.

INJURY REPORT:

Timberwolves - C J. Patton (Questionable, illness).

Rockets - SG E. gordon (Probable, ankle), PF R. Anderson (Questionable, ankle), C C. Capela (Questionable, hand), PF L. Mbah a Moute (Out, shoulder).

MATCHUP CHART:
