Mavericks vs Clippers Game 7: What to Expect
The Clippers clinched a narrow win to tie the playoffs at 3-3 with the Mavericks, paving way for an explosive deciding match. The Clippers are the favorites for the final meeting with odds at -285 to go through. A bet on the Mavericks can potentially triple your money with odds of +205 on the Moneyline. The following are the odds and points needed to cover the spread:
Mavericks: +6.5, -115
Clippers: -6.5, 115
Key Players
Luka Dončić is always going to be a threat to the Clippers and in their last meeting, the Slovenian added 29 points to his name. The Clippers will need to better prepare in marking Dončić, as 29 points and 11 assists make him the best player for the Mavericks in their last meeting.
Paul George and Kawhi Leonard will be the key players to watch in the playoffs. You can always count on Leonard to step up to the challenge and with 45 points scored in their last encounter, we expect Tyronn Lue to give him the most match time. The legendary Paul George, nicknamed "PG13" or "Playoff P", brings a wealth of experience and a defensive mind that frustrates opponents. The seven-time NBA All-Star got the most rebounds and assists for his team in their last meeting with the Mavericks and we expect the final encounter to be no different.
The Mavericks have won all three games they've played at the Staples Center this year, a total of five in this arena this season. This means that a win in Los Angeles could potentially see the Mavericks win the series while winning all away games. The Texans will be looking for redemption after the Clippers eliminated them in the bubble last year.
Hawks vs 76ers: Game 1
The 76ers are the clear favorites going into the first game with odds set at -160 on a money line bet. The Philadelphia 76ers finished on top of the Eastern Conference season with 49 wins, as opposed to the Hawks who finished in fifth with 41 wins. The following are the odds and points needed to cover the spread:
Hawks: +3, -114
76ers: -3, -116
Joel Embiid’s troublesome knee could be a significant factor on the 76ers’ success in the upcoming clashes but the doctors’ seem positive towards a quick return to the court. If the Cameroonian is not recovered to return for Game 1 on Sunday, the 76ers will need to make adjustments and a far tougher match will ensue for the Philadelphia side. Matisse Thybulle started in place of Embiid in Game 5 against the Wizards, who scored seven points from five opportunities. However, many fear that Embiid’s absence could see the 76ers make an early exit from the playoffs.
The 76ersand the Hawks clashed three times in the 2020-21 season with the Philadelphia side winning two of the three games. The home team emerged victorious in all three clashes, as both teams showed off their strengths on home soil. This will be the first playoff game between the two teams since 1982 when the 76ers wiped out the Hawks in a best of 3 series.
