Anyone who sees him will say that Steve Kerr is very hungry for attention or is like a ‘cowbell’. Coach of the Golden State Warriors has decided that Stephen Curry on his team in favor of Jordan Poole. The multiple NBA MVP has accepted his role for the moment, being a real dagger for his team, achieving totally historical records: never before has anyone averaged 25 minutes off the bench scoring 25.7 points.

With this arrangement, Curry has not lost an iota of his effectiveness as has been seen in the three wins that the Warriors have against the Denver Nuggets. In addition, the point guard has been comfortable with coming off the bench after having previously started 110 of 112 games in the Play-Offs. “I have six starting players and one has to stay out.” said his coach about a situation that we will see how long it lasts. For now, Poole is averaging 28.7 points per game, beating the maestro, who is coming off an ankle injury.

The Warriors should wrap up their sweep against a decaying Denver Nuggets with Nikola Jokic alone in danger. The triumph of the boys of the San Francisco bay is listed at [1.52] being a more than recommendable quota seeing the inertia of the two contenders. Not in vain, the situation has changed completely after this first round placing the Warriors as maximum favorites to the title to installment [3.75].

Those who have just lost that band of favorites for the NBA title are the finalists of the last season due to injuries. Despite this, Milwaukee managed to win the third game of their series against Chicago without Khris Middleton, while Phoenix did the same in the same situation against the New Orleans Pelicans without Devin Booker. Both teams win 2-1 and will have a new difficult test away from home. In the case of the ‘deer’ their triumph at home in Chicago is paid to [1.52]while that of the Suns trades at [1.75].

Last but not least, we find some Atlanta Hawks who have set out to make things complicated to Miami Heat.After winning the last game with a basket by Trae Young with four seconds to go, the ‘hawks’ will test the temperance of those from Florida in a game that could be ‘pivotal’ in the tie. A [2.10] the Hawks are paid to win on a night in which their starting center Clint Capela is likely to reappear.
