NBA Playoffs betting tips: Warriors finish Rockets, best series bets as Cavs face Pacers
The NBA Playoffs continue on Friday night as the Golden State Warriors look to right the wrongs of Game 5 and put the pesky Houston Rockets to bed once and for all.
At the time of writing, it remains to be seen if the Nuggets and Knicks can avoid going to a winner-takes-all match against the LA Clippers and Detroit Pistons, respectively.
Those games could take place over the weekend, depending on the outcome of Thursday night’s matchups, but we believe the Knicks and the Nuggets will advance even in the event of a Game 7.
However, we know of one other game taking place this week, as the Cleveland Cavaliers play host to the Indiana Pacers on the back of a five-day break.

NBA Playoff betting tips: Best spread picks as Cavs and Knicks wrap up series
First up on Monday, the Cleveland Cavaliers are looking to complete a series sweep as they face the Miami Heat in Game 4 at Kaseya Centre.
The Cavaliers handed the Heat their worst-ever playoff loss in game three and have outscored them by 67 points thus far, so a comeback is out of the question.
Next, the New York Knicks will try to finish off their first-round matchup with the Detroit Pistons in Game 5 at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday.
Even though the Pistons have been competitive, winning one game and losing three by a combined 14 points, we think the Knicks have a good chance of finishing the job.
