Phoenix Suns - Los Angeles Clippers (build a bet) The start of the NBA Finals tonight, starting with the West and the match in Arizona between the Suns and the Clippers.
The Suns will be completely relaxed in this series of western finals, something they won with their sword and they probably did not expect and many were what they achieved in the previous round by completely dominating the Nuggets, wiping them 4-0. A dominance that concerns not only the series but also the individual games, with the Williams team looking well-done and focused on the goal. Leading figure is the "point god" Chris Paul, who with his appearances seems to defy the years that pass and proves his thirst for the first ring of his career. The first violin in scoring is the now mature Booker, worthy collaborators are Eaton and Crowder with Craig and Bridges fulfilling the role of assistant. The big minus for tonight is the absence of Paul, who is in solitary confinement to comply with NBA protocols for the coronavirus.
The Clippers found mental reserves in the series with Utah, in fact in two key points of the series, showing that they have changed their mentality compared to last year. Not only did they come back from the 0-2 loss to the Mormons, but they also countered Leonard's injury, with Paul George stepping up and leading the LA team to the 4-game winning streak. 2. Also amazing is Terence Mann, the third-year guard / forward who scored 39 points in the sixth game, while overall the Clippers had tremendous percentages from the three-pointer and averaged 120 points in a row.
Chris Paul's absence for Phoenix is huge, the bookies have not counted it as one would expect. We are not saying that the Clippers, who also lack their best player in the face of Leonard, will take a walk, but the handicap in their favor can be defended. We estimate that despite their offensive power, they will encounter problems from the excellent defense of the hosts, which in turn will have issues in the production with the absence of Paul's organization. I choose the combination bet on "make a purchase" of bet365 with under 227,5 game points, Clippers +10,5 handicap points and Over 8,5 points for Terence Man, at odds of 2,60.
