The final spot in the NBA Conference Finals is up for grabs tonight, as the Detroit Pistons and Cleveland Cavaliers face off in what should be a thrilling Game 7 matchup. It’s been a rollercoaster ride of a season for the Pistons, who shocked the world by winning 60 games in the regular season to take the top seed in the Eastern Conference. Their playoff run first looked to set up for disaster, as they fell down 3-1  to the Orlando Magic before pulling off the unlikely comeback to escape the first round. Detroit handily took the first two games of this series, looking like the dominant team they have been all year, before dropping three straight to Cleveland, setting up a Game 6 with their playoff lives on the line. The Cavs have been on the doorstep of reaching the Eastern Conference Finals since they traded for  Donovan Mitchell, but looked poised to finally break through with a mid-season acquisition of James Harden. Cleveland did not look like the juggernaut many expected them to be in the first round, going seven with a fledgling Toronto Raptors team, but were able to go up 3-2 on Detroit through a vintage Game 5 performance from Harden. The Pistons took Game 6 decisively after Mitchell laid an egg, shooting 6-for-20 from the field, setting up an epic Game 7 to close out the second round of the NBA Playoffs.

Two epic Game 6s on Friday night have the chance to seal the bracket for the Conference Finals, as the San Antonio Spurs and Cleveland Cavaliers are on the doorstep of the NBA’s Final Four. For the Cavs, no-one expected them to be here just days ago, when they resoundingly fell down 2-0 to the Detroit Pistons. However, three games and an epic overtime-thriller later, and Cleveland just needs to keep up its undefeated streak at home these playoffs to advance. For the Spurs, it has felt like they have been in overwhelming control of their series, losing in a nail-biter in Game 1 and in Game 4 when Victor Wembanyama was ejected early. But the Minnesota Timberwolves are in familiar territory. Down 3-2 at home, two years ago the Wolves pulled off two unlikely upsets over the Denver Nuggets to send the defending champions home. Can they pull off a similar feat against a Spurs team that looks championship-bound?To come out a winner during these NBA Playoffs, here are tonight’s TST Best Bets brought to you by BetOnline.ag.
