Game #4 – Second Round Playoffs (NYK leads series 2-1)
Matchup Breakdown:
The Celtics bounced back in Game 3 with a dominant 115–93 win to cut the series deficit. Their defense clamped down early, and their shooting was sharp—hitting 50% from deep and controlling the tempo throughout. Payton Pritchard stepped up with 23 points, and the duo of Tatum and Brown combined for 42.
New York had a rough night from beyond the arc, shooting just 20%, which allowed Boston to pull away. Brunson put up 27 points, but they lacked consistent scoring elsewhere. Towns and Anunoby need to be more involved if the Knicks hope to protect home court and maintain momentum.
I think Boston is going to win this game. I don’t know by how much, but Round 2 tends to have some blowouts (especially when there is a more experienced playoff team in the mix). I’ll take the Celtics here and think they’ll clap down defensively.
Key Trends:
Celtics are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 against the Knicks.
4 of the last 5 meetings have gone under the total.

Spread: Timberwolves -5.5 (-105) | Warriors +5.5 (-115)

Game #4 – Second Round Playoffs (MIN leads series 2-1)
Matchup Breakdown:
Minnesota pulled out a gritty 102–97 win in Game 3 thanks to a clutch performance from Anthony Edwards, who dropped 36 and sealed the game late. Randle chipped in a triple-double, and Gobert controlled the paint with 14 rebounds and 4 blocks.
The Warriors kept it close behind 33 points from Jimmy Butler and 30 from Kuminga, but poor rebounding and second-chance defense were costly. Golden State must tighten up defensively and find more outside shooting to tie the series.
It’ll be tough for the Warriors again in this one. They’re just outmatched without Curry on the offensive end.
Key Trends:
Timberwolves are 4-1 ATS in their last five games.
Total has stayed under in 4 of the last 5 matchups.
