Bet 1: Golden State Wins Fourth Fourth
Although it was not the most dominant series of the Warriors, all the last periods of each of the seven games were taken before the Rockets. Three of those rooms, Golden State took them for just a deference point, but in the same way I took them.
Bet 2: less than 220.5 points
Although both teams usually carry their meetings above the 100 points, both Golden State and Minnesota tend to bump throughout the games. This is why we do not believe that in the first clash they exceed the average of 220.5 points between them.
Bet 3: Minnesota Tomas more than 40 rebounds
The Minnesota Timberwolves averaged a high 43.8 rebounds per game, which means that they are masters and mentions in the painting, led by Rudy Gobert and 8.4 by Anthony Edwards. Therefore, we believe that it is very likely to exceed 40 rebounds in the match.

In addition to this, Jimmy Butler was missing in one of the games, and this affected them. But on Sunday he contributed 20 points, eight rebounds and seven assists. Golden State needs these two offensive figures to be able to carry out the series against Minnesota.

However, those led by Chris Finch have other pieces to harm. Among them Julius Randle, Jaden McDaniels and Naz Reid who in their previous series showed an average above 10 points in the playoffs.
