3 Best NBA bets and player props for Celtics against Knicks in game 6 of the playoffs

The NBA playoffs are here, and even within a single game there are plenty of betting markets.

You can bet traditional markets such as the spread or the sum, but we also have countless player props markets that we can search.

Which bets stand out today when the Boston Celtics compete in game 6 of the Eastern Conference playoffs against the New York Knicks?

Let us go into the best bets in the NBA fight fights by Fanduel Sportsbook, whereby the NBA projections from Fanduel Research are used to find a value.

Celtics at Knicks Game 5 betting picks

Over 209.5 points (-110)

Although Jayson suffered an Achilles injury at the end of the season, the Boston Celtics still found a way to gather against the New York Knicks with a win of 127-102 in game 5. This was with Kristapaps Porzingis, who only played for 12 minutes because of a BRATING SORCHT and doubt his status 6. Will Boston do it again with a short -handed rotation?

Two factors found in the victory of game 5. The Celtics kept the Knicks on massive 26 points in the color, while they drained 22 out of 49 three-point attempts (44.9%). After Boston had only shot 25.0% in the first two games in the first two games, he will throw a three point percentage of 43.8% in the last three. This is also with a high volume at 45.7 shots and 20.0 make per competition. It could be too difficult to find a way to win in an enemy atmosphere as an outsider, but I still think that the Celtics will be successful in the rating department.

On the other side of the ball, Boston managed to keep the Knicks on a Field goal percentage of 35.9% (FG%) and 26 points in the color in the previous game. However, I do not expect that I will be up to date – especially without Tatum 101.5 – defense assessment in the line -up. In game 4, New York shot 54.3% from the field and scored 64 points in color and 121 points. In game 3, too, it even reached 48 points in the color. Knicks to keep the color of less than 30 points is very unlikely if they had the fourth highest firing distribution around the edge of the regular season (Pro Dunks & Dreis).

After two games with the rollover, I expect another over for game 6.

OG anunoby under 14.5 points (+100)

New York should be successful when Boston misses one of his most important defenders in Tatum. OG Anunoby, however, is one of the pieces that I do not trust. He was wildly inconsistent and in the next two of 29 points in game 1 to 5 and 2 points. Anunoby scored 20 points in game 4, but he only scored 6 points in the last matchup.

With the start of the Knicks, which ends with six points or less in three out of five games, the risk is worth the risk. The attempt of 1.6 free throws per game in this series is one of the categories that harm Anunoby's chances. This has a good attitude with the Celtics with the third -down personal fouls per piece in the regular season.

Even his shot is uncharacteristic and takes 11 out of 20 Field Goal tests of three (55.0%). The usage rate of Anunoby 20.1% compared to the regular season fell to 17.9% in the late season. This is currently not a player who generates a lot of self -confidence.

Derrick White makes 5+ threesome (+120)

I would not be surprised if we see a game 7 in this series. The two-point distribution in favor of the Knicks is reasonable, and Boston, to win directly (+120) (+120), is fascinating after the last game. Derrick White is a driving force when he immediately performed with 34 points without Tatum, while he did 7 out of 13 three (53.8%).

During the regular season, White's usage rate rose from 19.9% ​​to 23.4% when Tatum did not play. When Porzingis was also off the square, White's usage rate took another spike to 24.7%. In the post -season, its usage rate increases by 1.5 percentage points when Tatum is from the Court of Justice.

The most important thing is that White has the three-point use to achieve this. It starts 9.6 triple per game in the playoffs compared to 9.1 in the regular season and logs 11.4 shots per competition in this series. In game 5 without Tatum, White took 13 three-point points. Even its efficiency is elite against the kinks of 42.1% of Deep.

After an average of 6.5 three per game in the last two, while he scored at least five triplets in three out of five games against New York, +120 for 5+, who did three points, is too good to pass on. We mentioned that Boston was no problem with three points in the last three. Look for white to continue the attack.
