The second day of the NBA playoffs is here and there are four games taking place. Let’s take a look at a couple of NBA parlays to make Sunday’s NBA slate a winning one.
Brooklyn Nets ML +150 / Milwaukee Bucks -10 -110 / New Orleans Pelicans +10.5 -110 / $10 bet pays $81.12
The Brooklyn Nets might be the underdog heading to Boston to take on the Celtics on Sunday, but the visiting team is going to come away with the victory. One key in this game is they have had a shorter layoff. The Minnesota Timberwolves had the shorter layoff and they took it to the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday. The Nets also have Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving who I both expect to have a strong game in this one. Back the Nets on the money line.
10 points is a big number to lay in the playoffs, but the Milwaukee Bucks deserve to be laying it. The Chicago Bulls really backed into the playoffs and that isn’t good news. Two games ago against the Charlotte Hornets the Bulls lost 133-117. The Bulls defense is going to have no answer for the Bucks offense and Milwaukee will cover the spread.
The New Orleans Pelicans had to fight back against the Los Angeles Clippers to even play in this game, but I expect they will find success in this game, at least in terms of keeping it close. CJ McCollum seems to shine when the lights are brightest, and Brandon Ingram is also going to have a solid game. There is no question about the Pelicans offense and they will score enough to cover the spread.
Chicago Bulls, Milwaukee Bucks over 229.5 -110 / Milwaukee Bucks -110 // $10 bet pays $26.45
The Bucks and Bulls game is a perfect one for a same game parlay. The Bulls defense has been awful heading into this game and the Bucks are going to run up the score. I expect the Bucks will finish with over 140 points by themselves and that will be enough for this game to be high scoring and well over the total. Back the over to cash.
