Any game that features two of the best basketball players on the planet is worthy of your live betting time, so eyes were definitely fixed in the final regular season game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Houston Rockets.
The Rockets-Thunder game is just one of the six matches played today. There are still more great NBA games to quench your thirst for quality online betting, but we shouldn’t forget to look at the games played out today and see if they went according to the betting odds.
Oklahoma City Thunder 125-137 Houston Rockets
Former team-mates Russell Westbrook and James Harden played great basketball as their respective teams clashed for the fourth time this season. Russell Westbrook notched another triple-double under his belt, but Harden had the better team. Even scoring throughout the Rockets roster resulted in a home win.
Philadelphia 76ers 94-107 Indiana Pacers
With no real star player to lead them, the Philadelphia 76ers were rendered powerless before the veteran-laced Pacers. Dario Saric had an off game, only making three of his 15 shot attempts. Meanwhile, the Pacers’ vets did a lot of the scoring and allowed Paul George to have some room to operate.
Miami Heat 108-112 Boston Celtics
In this close game, the Miami Heat played well: Hassan Whiteside had a double-double, Tyler and James Johnson were prolific from the bench, and Goran Dragic was able to impose his will. However, Isaiah Thomas had a more impactful game. Boston also have the more balanced roster compared to their visitors.
Memphis Grizzlies 94-106 Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors are steamrolling over the competition with their play as of late.
Their latest victims were the Memphis Grizzlies, a team that didn’t that bad at all. Mike Conley, JaMychal Green and Zach Randolph were having great games. However, they were powerless to slow down the high-octane offence of the Dubs.
New Orleans Pelicans 115-90 Denver Nuggets
It’s a stretch, but the New Orleans Pelicans are edging closer to their goal of making it to the eighth seed. At the expense of not playing DeMarcus Cousins, the Pelicans played top basketball that easily overpowered the Nuggets. Anthony Davis was unstoppable, scoring 31 points and grabbing 15 rebounds.
Portland Trail Blazers 97-81 Los Angeles Lakers
The game was decided before tip-off, and the Lakers didn’t do anything to alter the script. D’Angelo Russell had a great game, but Damian Lillard is just too good for the young Lakers. Allen Crabbe’s contributions from the bench even made things more difficult for the Lakers faithful to watch.
