NBA Betting Guide for May 10: Do Nuggets Have Any Life Left?

The NBA is hosting a doubleheader of playoff hoops tonight, so let’s review everything you need to know about both matchups.
First, the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers will meet for Game 3 tonight in Indianapolis, with the Pacers sitting as seven-point favorites on their home floor. A lot of respect is given to the Pacers to make this a series tonight, but a couple of points are due to OG Anunoby already being ruled out for tonight’s game. The Knicks’ success has been drastically worse when Anunoby has been off the floor, but can Jalen Brunson and Co. pull off an upset to extend their series lead to 3-0?
Next up, an epic night in the Twin Cities awaits as the Minnesota Timberwolves head back home with a 2-0 series lead on the Denver Nuggets. We all saw the Wolves flat-out dominate the Nuggets in all facets in the first two games of this series, but do the defending champions have enough life in them to somehow go into Minnesota and pull out a win against a crowd that’s expecting to attend the Nuggets’ funeral? I don’t think so, but tail our +1400 ultimate same-game parlay for some great action on the game.
It will be a fun night of NBA hoops, so let’s lock in, enjoy the games, and pump out some winners!
