Fan Duel: Warriors 108, Celtics 102

Devon Platana writes: "The Chase Center can be a tough place to play for visiting teams and that's only going to be more difficult with the building buzzing following Curry's Game 4 showing. The Celtics have proven that they can win on the road, but Curry is a man possessed and it's going to take a monumental effort to stop him."

Sports Betting Dime: Warriors are favored vs. Celtics

Robert Duff writes: "Curry is clearly the MVP of this series. He’s carrying the Warriors on his back, bad leg and all. No other Golden State player scored more than 18 points in Game 4. The public loves a romantic story. Knicks fans still wax poetic about how an injured Willis Reed willed New York to an NBA title. Everyone will want to get on the Steph bandwagon. Look for that action to move the number on Golden State."

NBA.com: Celtics have bounced back in 2022 postseason

It writes: "Throughout these playoffs, the Celtics have had up and down performances, but they’ve always found a way to bounce back. Boston is 7-0 when coming off a loss this postseason and they’ve been especially tough on the road, going 8-3 away from home. The Celtics continue to be led by Tatum and fellow wing Jaylen Brown, each of whom are averaging 22.3 points this series. Marcus Smart, Derrick White and Al Horford also have had their moments offensively for the Celtics in the Finals, who as a team are shooting 49 percent in their wins and 39 percent in their losses. Defensively, center Robert Williams III has made his presence felt. He’s averaging 3.0 blocks per game and has the second best average plus-minus rating (+5.0) among players who play at least 15 minutes a game in this series, trailing only Looney. The Celtics have been the best road team during this postseason, and they’ll need that to ring true at least one more time to keep their Championship hopes alive."
