NBA Finals Game 5 Player Prop Bets, Picks & Predictions | Pickswise

Does Miami have any magic left in the tank? Game 5 is back in Denver as the Nuggets (-8.5) are up 3-1 following their 3rd double digit victory of the series. The thought process should be simple for bettors’ pickings sides: If you like the Nuggets, give the -8.5 points. If you like Miami, take them on the money line (+310). My prediction heading into the series was Nuggets in 4 or 5 and I’m confident our NBA 2022-2023 season ends on Monday night. Aaron Gordon and Bruce Brown were the next guys up in the for Denver; the previous winner was Christian Braun. All the talking heads in Sports are calling Jokic/Murray the new generation’s version of Shaq/Kobe and I’d have to agree. For the Heat to extend the series, they will need to generate more open 3-point shots (like the 46 they attempted in Game 2). I would not be surprised if Miami pulls off the upset, but if Denver can weather an early storm from the Heat, they should pull away in the 2nd half. You can bet on our Heat vs Nu...

Officer who raced to Parkland massacre scene testifies against deputy who stayed outside

A police officer who rushed inside a classroom building during the Parkland school shooting says he encountered a sheriff's deputy outside who confirmed the shooter was upstairs PARKLAND, Fla. -- A police officer who rushed into a high school building during the 2018 Parkland shooting testified Friday that a sheriff's deputy outside confirmed that the shooter was upstairs. The former Broward County deputy, Scot Peterson, is on trial for failing to confront the shooter who killed 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High. He has insisted since he spoke to investigators two days after the massacre that he couldn’t tell where the gunshots were coming from, and that he thought they may have been fired outside. On the third day of Pet erson's trial, Coral Springs officer Richard Best related what he says Pet erson told him outside the classroom building, WPLG-TV reported. “I said, ‘Hey brother, what do we got?’” Best told the jury. “He said, ‘Gunshots second or third floor.’...

Kyle Walker reveals Man City treble motivation

Manchester City defender Kyle Walker has revealed that a desire to emulate Manchester United's treble -winning team from 1999 is serving as motivation ahead of Saturday's Champions League final. City are seeking to become only the second English team in History to complete the treble – Premier League , FA Cup and Champions League – and are two thirds of the way there. Pep Guardiola's side reeled in long-time league leaders Arsenal to finish top of the pile for the third straight season, before claiming the FA Cup for the first time in four years with victory over the current Manchester United at Wembley last weekend. City reached the Champions League final for the first time in 2021, but lost to Chelsea. They were also on the cusp of getting there again in 2022, only to throw away a late aggregate lead in the semi-final against Real Madrid, eventually losing in extra-time. Walker has suggested that the difference between City, for all their domestic domination in recent ...

PSG finalising Manuel Ugarte transfer as Chelsea back away from deal

Paris Saint-Germain are closing in on the signing of Sporting CP midfielder Manuel Ugarte, 90min understands, after Chelsea pulled back from a move for the 22-year-old. PSG agreed personal terms with Ugarte last month after making the Uruguay international one of their primary transfer targets, but saw their move complicated by rival interest from the big-spending Blues. Chelsea, who are looking to strengthen their options in central midfield, put forward a Health y offer to Sporting in the hope of luring Ugarte to Stamford Bridge, but their efforts were met with resistance from the player and his representatives, who pushed to complete a move to the French capital. Sources have now confirmed to 90min that Chelsea backed away from the deal and PSG are now finalising the details of Ugarte's proposed transfer , which will reward the player with significantly higher wages than those on offer in west London. New Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino has a number of other shortlist...

Texas governor appoints John Scott as interim attorney general after Paxton impeached

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has named John Scott to temporarily serve as the state’s attorney general AUSTIN, Texas -- Gov. Greg Abbott on Wednesday picked a longtime ally who oversaw Texas' elections in 2022 to temporarily serve as attorney general following Republican Ken Paxton's historic impeachment on allegations of misconduct and crimes. John Scott, who stepped down as Texas Secretary of State last year, takes over as the state's top lawyer on an interim basis while Paxton awaits a trial in the state Senate that could result in his permanent removal. The trial is set to begin no later than Aug. 28. Paxton was impeached last weekend by the Texas House of Representatives, triggering his immediate suspension from office. Abbott has kept silent about Paxton in the week since House Republicans began impeachment proceedings. The governor announced Scott's appointment in a statement that did not mention Paxton or comment on the accusations against him. “John Scott has t...
