NBA FanDuel Picks For April 15

The NBA play offs are finally starting. Some would say the real season begins. We’ve seen it all this year too. Congratulations to Golden State for setting the record with 73 wins. I watched them play around Christmas time and they’re the truth. Steph Curry is unreal and could play in any era. Basketball is basketball and that man can shoot. I don’t care what anyone says, he’s the best shooter we’ve ever seen and Pistol Pete is second. You ready to win some money tomorrow?? Me too!

My two point guards- Patrick Beverley of Houston. Priced at $5,000 and against Golden State. Point guards score points versus the Warriors and his last 3 games he’s scored 42.8, 29 and 36.4. This allows you to spend $10,800 on Russell Westbrook. That’s a no brainer. Russell’s last few games- 45, 39, 46, 48 and 55. Nobody on Dallas can cover him so 50 points is possible. Expect a triple double out of the NBA’s newest triple double machine.

My shooting guards are Golden State’s Klay Thompson at $7,300 and Houston’s James Harden. This is a great duo and both guys have no problem shooting the ball. Harden is Houston’s only true weapon and he’ll be trying to keep pace with Curry, Green and Thompson.  His price is$10,800, but barring injury, he’ll be worth it. I expect that to be the highest scoring game and would take Curry over Westbrook but Westbrook rebounds so he gets the advantage.

My small forwards- Kent Bazemore of Atlanta. He’s priced at 5300 and is a good player. Boston’s best defender is going to be on Milsap so I think Teague and Bazemore will play big roles in this one. Bazemore had 24 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists last time versus the Celtics. I like Jae Crowder as my other SF. He’s cheap at $5,800 and averages 26.5 a game on FanDuel. If he scores 30 we’ll be in good shape.

My first power forward is Amir Johnson. Last game versus Atlanta he had 14/8/2/4 for 36.6 points. If he does that tomorrow then we’ll win, no doubt about it. And he could feasibly do better. My next pick is Serge Ibaka. He’s Oklahoma City’s 3rd weapon behind Durant and Westbrook. I spent a lot on Harden and Westbrook and there’s no diamond in the bushes in the playoffs. They’ve had 82 games to figure each other out, and they are who we think they are.

My last pick, my center. Enes Kanter because I’ve only got$4,500 left. There’s no true dominant center playing tomorrow. There isn’t a 50 point guy priced at $8,500, so Kanter is a safe bet. He’s also got a 33 point 20 rebound performance against Portland. He put up 60 that game and faces a Dallas team who might not have an answer for him.
