Thursday, Apr 24, 2025The NBA Playoffs are underway, with the top three teams (Thunder, Cavaliers, Celtics) all sprinting out to 2-0 series leads. The other five series have been more competitive, with all but one (Pacers/Bucks) sitting at 1-game-apiece.
My preseason pick this season was on the Celtics to repeat as champions, and they're the #2 seed in the Eastern Conference. Boston opened its 7-game series with a 103-86 win over Orlando (as a 12.5-point home favorite), and then followed that up with a 109-100 victory (as a 10.5-point home favorite).
Boston failed to cover the point spread in its Game 2 triumph, and that leads us into this week's NBA Playoff system.
What we want to do is play on any defending NBA champion on the road after failing to cover the spread in a home playoff game.
Since 1991, our system has gone 46-17, 73% ATS.
The Celtics have been installed as a 5.5-point road favorite in Game 3, on Friday.
Consider laying the points.
Good luck, as always,
Al McMordie
