Boston Celtics VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 1.43 for the Celtics and 2.95 for the Warriors, right now Danilo Gallinari, can not play for the Celtics and Jaylen Brown is questionable if he can play for the Celtics, while Jonathan Kuminga, James Wiseman, JaMychal Green, and Andre Iguodala can not play for the Warriors all of them until January 20 which is this day, but for this game, I think that the Warriors are done from losing but the Celtics is not a pushover team and likely they need to be careful about this but for me, the Golden State Warriors is in a different league and they can surely win this against the Celtics so my pick is the Golden State Warriors,

Minnesota Timberwolves VS Toronto Raptors

The stake odds for this game are 2.60 for the Timberwolves and 1.52 for the Raptors, right now Karl-Anthony Towns, and Jordan McLaughlin, can not play for the Timberwolves, and Rudy Gobert and Austin Rivers are both questionable if they can play for the Timberwolves, while Raptors Dalano Banton is questionable if he can play for the Raptors, I think this is the 1st time for this two team to meet, and I think both teams are in a crucial position nearing the play-offs, while for me Toronto Raptors has that peace of mind that I will not lose my bet,

Looks like you lost on both of these bets brother.

Boston - Golden State is just like we are watching a Finals series again. It went to overtime and luckily for them, Boston won. I guess the Celtics can get that win and didn't went to overtime if only Tatum didn't commit those 3 turnovers at the final minutes of the game, but it's good that Brown's three went in thus, tying the game. The Celtics are now 18-5 on their home, tied with the Bucks with best home record in the East while the Warriors are now 5-18 on the road and currently at the 9th spot.

On the other hand, the Timberwolves won against the Raptors on their home. The Raptors lead most of the game until the 10 minute mark of the 4th quarter where the Raptors lead by 14 at the 9:30 mark, but the Timberwolves made a 19-5 run in the last 6 minutes to tie the ball game at near the 4-minute mark and then they stole the win against the Raptors by only 2 points.

I don't know if it's only me but it seems like Naz Reid is better than Gobert. Both of them have pros and cons, but the main reason why I said this is that, Reid can be a center, has good handling skills, can drive the ball and he can shoot threes thus, stretching the defense of the opposing team. As to Gobert, he is a great defender, but he isn't a good shooter in both perimeters and three-point area. Nevertheless, I will still think that the Gobert trade will be one of the worst trades in NBA history.

What a crazy game between Boston and Golden State, Jason Tatum and Stephen Curry have a hot hand in this game especially when curry made a still and make a half court buzzer beater shot. I remembered the shout caster said "A curry moment in Boston". On the 2nd Half, The Golden states got their momentum where the favor of the game goes to them but when the 4th quarter came; this is where the real match starts. I thought that Curry will have buzzer beater again against AL Horford but his shot missed that is the reason why they go in the Overtime. At the 1st minute of Overtime, the GSW quickly scores but they have a lot of turnovers that became the opportunity of the Celtics to score and win the game.
