After pulling off a shocker in Game 1, the Lakers are aiming to take full control of their series against the defending champion Warriors. Will Steph and co. respond, or can AD and LeBron go up 2-0? Catch the game live from 9 pm ET on ESPN. I’ve prepared a Same Game Parlay which you can find below.
Just 2 days ago I was able to land a +608 odds Heat vs Knicks SGP. In Game 1 of this series, I was just 1 leg away from another winner, so let’s hope for a bit more luck with tonight’s bet.
Let’s dive into it!
Golden State Warriors 1 – 10 Win Margin (+170)
Jordan Poole over 1.5 Made Threes (-162)
Rui Hachimura Over 6.5 Points (+102)
Same Game Parlay odds: +704

Golden State Warriors 1 – 10 Win Margin (+170)
We saw what happened in the 76ers vs Celtics game last night, the home team came back in dominant fashion after losing Game 1. That was the 15th game in a row in which the home team came back in that scenario, so I’m expecting the defending champions to continue that run in tonight’s game. Unlike the Sixers vs Celtics game, this one should be a bit more competitive, as 3 of the last 4 meetings have been decided by less than 10 points. The Warriors settled for way too many threes in Game 1 in my opinion, while LA focused on getting to the basket which resulted in a fairly wide free throw disparity. Adjustments will be made from both sides, there is no way LA gets 23 more shot attempts from the charity stripe like they did in Tuesday’s win. Golden State is 14-3 SU in their last 17 home games, plus Stephen Curry has a 18-7 SU record in Game 2s in his career. The Warriors should come back with a close win.
Jordan Poole over 1.5 Made Threes (-162)
I had Poole in Tuesday’s +711 odds Lakers vs Warriors Same Game Parlay and he didn’t disappoint. In what was his 2nd highest point output of the postseason so far, Poole went off from three point land knocking down 6 of 11 attempts and although he caught some flack for missing that deep three-pointer that would have tied the game late, that shouldn’t take anything away from his performance. Playing the Lakers suits him a lot better than the Grizzlies, as he can pretty much get anything what he wants from the perimeter while playing against the 2nd unit. His contribution can be the difference maker for Golden State in this series, if he can continue playing well when Curry is on the bench. After seeing him score 6 threes in the series opener and the Warriors connecting on 39.6% of their attempts from downtown, I think he’ll be able to knock down 2 threes with ease in Game 2. He’s done it in consecutive games now, and in 3 of his last 5 outings.

Rui Hachimura Over 6.5 Points (+102)
To get +102 odds for Hachimura to score just 7 points is just way too good for me to pass up here. Although he had only 6 in the series opener, that shouldn’t discourage people from backing him to have a solid output in Game 2. He connected on both field goal attempts in Tuesday’s win, plus he was 2-for-2 from the free throw line. That 14-0 Golden State run towards the end of the game was a direct product of them going small and playing at a higher pace. If their game plan is to do that early in Game 2, I think Hachimura will get a lot more playing time than the 11 minutes he got on Tuesday. That automatically means more shot attempts, so getting to 7 points shouldn’t be an issue for him. Dennis Schroder did most of the heavy lifting off the bench in Game 1 with 19, with Austin Reaves and Jarred Vanderbilt mostly focusing on defense, Hachimura will provide the much needed boost off the pine in tonight’s game.
