NBA Betting Guide for May 14: Can Ant-Man be Superman?

The NBA is hosting a doubleheader of playoff hoops tonight, so let’s review everything you need to know about both matchups.
Kicking off the night, the New York Knicks will host the Indiana Pacers for Game 5 in the Garden. This series has been an absolute battle thus far, but after the Pacers’ blowout win in Game 4 and injuries becoming a problem for the Knicks, is it fair to say that the Pacers have all the momentum? Regardless, tonight should be a fun one to tune in for, so we worked up a +1100 ultimate same-game parlay for the action.
Next, we have Game 5 between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Denver Nuggets set, with each road team having won thus far. Minnesota looked destined to close out the Nuggets on their home floor after dominating in the first two games, but after Games 3 & 4, it doesn’t seem like the Wolves lack confidence. I couldn’t tell you what will happen tonight, but I hope this series finds a way to go seven games.
It will be a fun night of NBA hoops, so let’s lock in, enjoy the games, and pump out some winners!
