Tomorrow is game two of the WNBA semifinals between the New York Liberty (0-1, 0-1 Home) and the Connecticut Sun (1-0, 1-0 Away). Best of five games, the Liberty will have another home matchup. With New York favored by six, the Connecticut Sun utilized their defense, in which they defeated New York 78-63 in game one. With coach Sandy Brondello calling the loss "the worst game of the year," the Liberty were held to a season low 63 points.

In Rebecca Allen's return to New York, No. 9 scored 18 points, and 4-6 from downtown. For Connecticut, DeWanna Bonner had a team high 20 points, three blocks, one steal, and seven rebounds. A collective team effort on both ends of the floor, the Sun had 7 blocks and steals as a unit, and forced New York to turnover the ball 14 times. The Sun, led by Stephanie White, limited the Liberty to zero fast break points, and four points in the paint throughout the second half of the matchup.

The Liberty struggled in Game One

For New York, all five starters finished negative +/- on the court, in which their offense was stale and stagnant the entire night. With no sense of flow or consistency, Breanna Stewart was held to 7-25 field goal shooting, in which she missed all eight three-point shots. Jonquel Jones was limited to four second half inside points, and Courtney Vandersloot with seven. Sabrina Ionescu finished 50 percent from the three, however, was bottled up a majority of the night, and didn't score inside the perimeter. Betnijah Laney, had 19 points, two steals, and two blocks in their last victory against Connecticut. On Sunday, Laney was held to three points. Overall, the Connecticut Sun found their rhythm offensively, created stops defensively, and the New York Liberty looked unrecognizable.

In this article, I will break down the WNBA betting odds, statistics, trends, odds, player prop bets, and predictions. The matchup will begin at 8 p.m. ET, at the Barclays Center, located in Brooklyn, New York. If you're betting on the WNBA and interested in watching, the game will air on ESPN. For the best betting odds, stats and analysis, here is information to know.

WNBA Odds Game 2: New York Liberty vs. Connecticut Sun

WNBA Semifinals Series Odds: New York Liberty vs. Connecticut Sun

Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook

New York Liberty -8.5 (-114)

Game two should be a classic bounce back performance for the New York Liberty. In front of a sellout crowd of 9,442, the New York Liberty were held to a season low 63 points. In the loss, New York's offense looked unrecognizable, as they finished the night shooting under 35 percent from the field. All five starters struggled offensively, including Breanna Stewart and Betnijah Laney. With the best of five series, this is a must win for New York, who will need to utilize home court advantage, before heading to Connecticut on Friday. With the playoffs, it starts off at 0-0, and its often hard to gauge the outcomes this time of the year. I will utilize last night's matchup, in the addition to the four regular season games to formulate my best bets for Tuesday.

Connecticut made sure to shut down New York's production inside the paint by Jonquel Jones second half of the game. For the first half of the matchup, we saw Jones utilize her size and strength inside, in which No. 35 finished with 10 points. New York has gone cold from three-point shooting, especially the last two games. Breanna Stewart, an MVP candidate, finished 0-8 from the field, Betnijah Laney, 1-9, and Sabrina Ionescu 4-14 from the field. Through four playoff games, Connecticut remains second in defensive rating (94), and leads in opponent points per game (70). Even with Connecticut playing tough defense, it's hard to envision New York reliving their underwhelming offensive performance.

Why New York will cover

New York still ranks fourth in offensive rating (103) in four playoff games, and fourth in defensive rating (100). In multiple regular season games, the Liberty were 3-1 against the spread against Connecticut. In the meetings, the Liberty averaged 88.5 points, 40 rebounds, and 23.3 assists in four victories. Additionally, they shot 48.4 percent from the field, and 34.7 percent from the field. It's extremely hard to envision this offense limited again, which consists of multiple former MVPs, Breanna Stewart and Jonquel Jones. New York has the stardom with Sabrina Ionescu, Courtney Vandersloot, and Betnijah Laney in the backcourt.

In four playoff matchups, the New York liberty are 2-2 against the spread, and the Connecticut Sun 3-1. For a team that ranks second in perimeter defense this post season, expect New York to tightly guard DeWanna Bonner, in addition to Ty Harris, Rebecca Allen, and Natisha Hiedeman.

Jonquel Jones to record a double-double (-105)

Season Stats: PPG: 11.3 | FG: 52.7 % | 3 PT: 35.2 % | FT: 86.3 % | REB: 8.4 | AST: 1.8 |STL: 0.6 | BLK: 1.3

Playoff Stats: PPG: 17.7 | FG: 62.1 % | 3 PT: 14.3 % | FT: 80 % | REB: 12.3 | AST: 2 |STL:0.7 | BLK: 2.3

Season Stats vs CT: PPG: 13 | FG: 50 % | 3 PT: 25 % | FT: 88.9 % | REB: 8.8 | AST: 8 | STL: 0.5 | BLK: 2.3

If there's any prop bet, I'm confident in, it's Jonquel Jones. Although the Connecticut Sun limited her looks in the second half, Jones had several inside buckets, including ten first half points. No. 35 has significant size and strength advantage against Connecticut. The biggest threat to Jones besides Bonner will be Olivia Nelson Ododa, who finished with one block and two steals last matchup.

In New York's game two win against Washington, the Liberty relied heavily on Jones, including putting her at the point. Last game, there was some success with the pick and roll between Jones and Breanna Stewart. Although the Sun are the best team in the playoffs in terms of opponent points in the paint (28.5), I would expect Jones to utilize her size, and draw fouls early on. In the postseason, Jones has shown how crucial she is to this New York team, especially when the outside shots aren't falling. The Liberty forward is averaging over 17 points and 12 assists in the past three games. With Connecticut as one of the top defensive teams, look for the offense to flow through Jonquel Jones.

Why this prop will hit

Jones is coming off three straight double-doubles, including two against Washington. In four regular season matchups, Jones hit this prop 50 percent against the Sun, and twelve games, including the Commissioners Cup victory over Las Vegas. One of the only bright spots for the Liberty in game one, expect Jones to be highly involved Tuesday night.

Starting advice

We had the chance to interview a few professional sports bettors and asked them their tips and tricks when getting into the hobby of betting.? Chelly, a Content Creator for Bookit Sports sat down with us with some advice. "My number one advice when it comes to betting would be to try and get involved some sort of positive-minded community. Finding a group of people to surround yourself in such an often-negative space is much better for you mentally and you will often see the results in your bets." Having positive and knowledgeable mentors is key when it comes to betting. Click here to follow Chelly, who bets daily.

Finding the right Sports book

As mentioned before, we provided a list of our top sports books, however, that does not mean you need to use those exact ones. There are over 20 legal United States sports books, and not everyone is legal in your state. We highly recommend you do the research to find which sports books are legal, and the ones that you are most comfortable with. For example, Draft Kings has bonuses and existing player promotions daily, and offer different types of bets compared to other books. This includes odds boosts, missions and more. In addition, they offer VIP and dynasty awards.? Identifying the right book and knowing how to deposit funds are the two most important steps. It’s also important to learn how each sports book app works and to learn the interface before making any bets.

Examples of some legal sports books in the United States include Draft Kings, Fan Duel, Points Bet, Bet MGM, Caesars Sports Book, Bet Rivers, Unibet, and WynnBet. Again, it’s important to make sure you’re wagering your money with a LEGAL book.

As far as the promotions go, some books will give you a reward just for signing up.? Additionally, it’s up to the customer to review the terms and conditions of the app. For example, Draft Kings offers $200 in bonus bets if you place a bet of $ or more on any game. Often, there will be requirements for these bets, age requirements, expiration dates, and are only legal in certain states.

What do the Odds mean?

If you’re new to betting, you will notice various lines next to a player or team names. For example, you may see Dallas Wings -165 or the Atlanta Dream +140. If you’re feeling a little confused, don’t worry. It’s important to distinguish the meaning of these numbers before diving into the types of bets you can make. Although there are different formats of odds, we will stick to American odds for now.

According to Draft Kings, odds are how likely an event or outcome is to happen. In addition, they show you how much money you can win from a wager. Here is how we rate the books .

Here is an exact example from DraftKings sports book

Anything that says negative before the number sign always means the outcome is favored. In this case, you have to bet more to win more.? Whenever there is a plus or positive sign in front of a number, it means the outcome is not favored. ?If there is a plus sign, it means the risk is greater when you place your wager, although the payout could be significantly higher. It’s important to note your units placed on bets is completely up to the individual, although there are maximum bet laws in the states. We will discuss the?word “Units” in the next few sections.

Although we won’t get too much into the types of bets, you can live bet during an event or game. As the game continues and progresses the odds will move in favor of the winning team. However, this can continuously change. In the Dream and Wings example, the Dallas Wings-180 simply means they are the favored team in the game the moment you bet. However, this line isn’t set, and can move days before an event, and during an event.

What causes the lines (odds) to move or change?

Aside from live betting, the odds and lines usually change before an event. The factors that would change the odds include weather conditions, player injuries, how many people are betting on that subject, and so forth. It’s important to pay attention to these factors when making a particular wager.

Shopping around for the best odds

We briefly talked about the legal sports books in the United States, and which ones we recommend for you to use. It will be up to you to shop the NBA odds lines. Let’s talk about the Atlanta Dream and the Dallas Wings game again. The Dream odds to win may be higher in another Sports Book. For example, the odds for Atlanta could be +140 on DraftKings, and +170 on FanDuels sportsbook.? Third parties’ apps, such as PIKKIT Sports are convenient apps where you can shop lines.? Shopping for the best bets may be time consuming, however, it can maximize your profits in the end.

Bank Roll Management

Sports Bettors are simply known as “Cappers” in the sports betting world. Most cappers would recommend that you bet responsibility, and don’t wager on bets with money you can’t afford to lose. Bank Roll Management is extremely important when it comes to sports betting. It can lead to a more profitable gain in the long run, and there are strategies that can help grow your bankroll.

Engaging in sports betting can either be a long term or short-term investment, along with a loss. The return on investment can be quite large in the betting world, however you must consider what you can afford to lose. For some sports betting is a hobby, and for many it’s an investment. The occasional bettor may make one wager for their lifetime, and others may wager regularly in hopes of a profit return.

Bank Roll management is an important concept that must be understood before investing in sports betting. How much you deposit into your sports book can be weekly, monthly, yearly, and so on.? If you set aside $1000 for your bank role management in betting, it can be lost very quickly, or you can get a decent sized ROI (Return on Investment). As you bet responsibly, it’s possible to grow your bank roll management, and protect it.

What does a unit mean?

Now that we discussed bank role management, it’s important to understand the meaning of a ‘unit.’ Once you determine your bank role, it’s important to note how much of your bank role you want to wager on a bet. According to Forbes, professionals’ advice bettors to bet 1 % to 2 % of your overall bankroll, 2 % leaning towards experienced bettors.

For example, let’s say you put $1000 in your bankroll on any given sports book. If you go to make a bet on a particular team, 1 % of the bet would be 10 dollars, which would be less of a risk. Another words, you are putting '1 Unit down on a particular bet.'? If you were to put down 2 % of your $1000, that would be a riskier bet of $20. That 20 dollars would also be known as “2 units put down on a bet.”

What is a bet slip?

A Bet Slip is going to show what you are wagering, how much, and how much return you would get. For example, on Draft Kings, it typically is a white colored slip with a green symbol that states “bet slip.” The Betting Slip refers to the actual place where you build and make a bet.?

Here, is an example of a bet slip. A $10 wager on +140 would make you $14 dollars in profit.

As the odds are higher, you MAY have a greater return in profit.? At +140 odds, if you risk $100, depending on your bankroll, there is a chance for a GREAT return. If the Dream win here, the return would be $140.

Twitter: @GGirlSports.?

Tonight, is an important Game 4 for the Miami Heat. The Denver Nuggets beat the Miami Heat 109-94 in Game 3 of the NBA Finals on the road. According to Draft Kings, “When the NBA Finals have been tied 1-1, the winner of Game 3 has gone on to win the series 32 out of 40 times (80%). The 1 Seed Denver Nuggets (14-4, 5-3 Away) will face off against the 8th Seed Miami Heat (13-8, 6-3 Home). These teams will play tonight at 8:30 PM EST, at the Kaseya Center, located in Miami, Florida. In addition, the matchup will air on ABC. If you are looking for the best betting odds and stats, here is information to know:

Game 4: Denver Nuggets @ Miami Heat (2-1)

Miami: +130 ML
Denver: -150 ML
Over/Under: 211.5
Spread: Denver -3, Miami +3

Game 3: Denver 109- Miami 94

Betting Odds: Denver -3.5, 212.5.
Betting Results: Denver Money Line, UNDER.

Game Summary:

Denver Nuggets Statistics

FG: 51.2 %
3 PT: 27.8 %
REB: 58
STL: 3
TO: 14
PTS in Paint: 60

Miami Heat Statistics

FG: 37 %
3 PT: 31.5 %
REB: 33
STL: 7
TO: 4
PTS in Paint: 34

With the series tied 1-1, the Denver Nuggets’ biggest stars showed up on the biggest stage. In fact, Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic were the first two players to both have triple-doubles in NBA Finals?History. The Nuggets struggled from the three, however, learned to score from the mid-range and outrebounded Miami by more than 30 points.

Miami is definition of a team that plays from behind, however, they couldn’t get it done this game. The Heat shot nearly 30 percent from the three and couldn’t buy a field goal. Combine that with Denver’s monstrous rebounding game, it’s hard to believe the Heat lost by only 15 points. Jimmy Butler finished the game with 28 points, and Bam Adebayo with 22 points. Much like Denver, there wasn’t much production from their bench players or role players. It’s important to note all of the Heat’s 5 starters finished negative on the court.

For Denver, Michael Porter Jr. continued his struggles, and we saw Aaron Gordon grab plenty of rebounds. However, Gordon was unsuccessful in many attempts at the rim, and we saw him struggle with putbacks at times. Caldwell-Pope struggled in 28 minutes played and finished with 6 points. Like Miami’s Duncan Robinson, Guard Christian Braun was the x-factor in Game 3. In 19 minutes, Braun scored 15 points, grabbed 4 rebounds, and shot 100 percent from the line, and 87.5 percent from the field. With their role players struggling, Braun was exactly what the Nuggets needed. He caught fire late in the game off the bench and provided an unexpected spark for Denver. His play included a crucial steal and dunk, which came late in the game. For someone who only averages 3.1 points in the playoffs, Braun could be the player Denver needs to support Murray and Jokic.?

?Denver averages 37.9 percent from the 3-point range, while Miami averages 38.8 percent from the 3-point range.

LAST 10 GAMES + GAME PREDICTION:

SPREAD: Miami +3.5

-Denver covered the spread in 6 of their last 10 games (6-4-0).
-Miami covered the spread in 6 of their last 10 games (6-4-0).
–Denver has a 55-44-1 record ATS this season.
-Miami has a 45-57-3 record ATS this season.
–Miami is 21-29-2 in HOME games ATS this season.
-Denver is 24-25-0 in AWAY games ATS this season.

?Miami is coming off a Game 3 loss at home against Denver suffered a 15-point deficit. Additionally, the Heat shot 31 percent from the three, and 37 percent from the field.? I expect Miami to apply the pressure and hit their shots this game. I like Miami +3.5.

MONEY LINE: Miami Heat ML.

-Denver won the Money Line 8 out of their last 10 games.
-Miami won the Money Line 5 of their last 10 games.

? It would be corporate to say the Denver Nuggets have Game 4 with the exceptional play of Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic. Erik Spoelstra is one of the best coaches in NBA History for a reason. Ultimately, it starts with head coach Spoelstra and ends with super star Jimmy Butler. Although Butler had a decent offensive game, we’ve seen him more explosive, especially in Game 4 against Milwaukee. Besides Butler and Adebayo, the rest of the Heat struggled.

According to ESPN, Jimmy Butler quoted, “We’re going to come out with a lot more energy,” Butler said. “We’re going to compete at a high level. We’re going to get one at home.” Butler must start the night out right and set the tone for his teammates. The Heat will need Strus, Gabe Vincent, and Caleb Martin to have huge games as well. The Nuggets are hot and won 8 out of their last 10 games. Furthermore, Miami is 5-5 is their last 10. I think Miami steals Game 4 at home. They must shoot better, match or outrebound Denver, keep up their defensive tempo, and get Butler going to win. Give me Heat Money Line.

OVER/UNDER: UNDER.

-Denver Avg +/- vs O/U Line: -1.65..
-Miami Avg +/- vs O/U Line: +0.33.
-Denver Overall O/U Record: 47-52-1.
–Miami Overall O/U Record: 53-52-0.
-Denver Overall AWAY O/U Record: 25-24-0.
–Miami Overall HOME O/U Record: 27-25-0.
-Denver hit the UNDER 6 times in their last 10 games.
-Miami hit the UNDER 6 times in their last 10 games.

?Two of the three games hit the Under, and I expect the same this game. It’s important to note Game 3 hit the under, including triple-doubles from Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic. I don’t expect them to have those same numbers in Game 4, and I expect Miami to come up with a defensive plan, especially for Murray. If these two teams continue to struggle from the three, I can almost smell an under already. Unless if they improve the shooting, I like the UNDER here.

Warriors: -110

Spread:

Kings: +7.5 (-110)

Playoff Matchup

The Sacramento Kings lead the Series 2-1 against the Golden State Warriors.

Game 1: Kings Defeated the Warriors 126-123

Betting Odds: Sacramento (-1.5), Over/Under 237.5.
Betting Results: Sacramento Money Line, Sacramento +1.5, OVER.

Game Summary:

This is the first time the Sacramento Kings are in in the NBA playoffs for the first since in 16 years. According to ESPN, “the arena was deafening starting in pregame warmups with some fans even bringing back the cow bells that were so common during their playoff runs two decades ago.”

Most of the King’s starters struggled in this game. However, De’Aaron Fox did not disappoint in his playoff debut, and erupted for 38 Points, attempted 27 shots, and had 3 steals. As a team, the Kings outrebounded the Warriors 50-41, and were more efficient at the Free-Throw Line, and the Three-Point. In addition, Sabonis and the Kings outscored the Warriors in the paint, 60-44, and led in fast break points.

Although Sacramento trailed in the first half, they outscored the Warriors in the 2nd half. Sabonis may have struggled offensively, however, he grabbed 16 boards. Malik Monk made up for their struggles with 32 Points off the bench. For the Warriors, Andrew Wiggins was rusty upon his return, and Jordan Poole was limited in minutes.

Game 2: Kings Defeated the Warriors 114-106.

Betting Odds: Golden State (-2.5), Over/Under 238.5.
Betting Results: Sacramento Money Line, Sacramento +2.5, UNDER.

Game Summary:

?Game 2 was an eventful one, again the Sacramento Kings hosting the Golden State Warriors at home. Known for his fights on and off the court, Draymond Green was hit with a flagrant foul and ejected from the game, after stomping on Domantas Sabonis chest. Although Green isn’t a high scorer, he is a player who can facilitate plays and makes a difference on the defensive end.

Although Golden State took an early lead in the 1st Quarter, the Kings outscored them in the 2nd, 41-29, and 25-23 in the 3rd Quarter. Even though Sacramento only shot 23 Percent from the Three, they shot 45 Percent from the Field, and dominated in the paint. The Sacramento Kings knew they had the opportunity to win this game without Draymond Green, and pulled away around the 2-minute mark, thanks to De’Aaron Fox go ahead three.

Game 3: Warriors Defeated the Kings 114-106.

Betting Odds: Golden State (-6), Over/Under 241.
Betting Results: Sacramento Money Line, Sacramento -6, UNDER.

?No Draymond Green, No problem. After Green got ejected in Game 2, he was suspended for Game 3 against the Kings.? Steph Curry knew this team needed to take advantage at home, being down 2-0. He did not disappoint, and led the Warriors with 36 Points, 1 Block, 2 Steals, and attempted 25 shots. Although Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole struggled, Andrew Wiggins stepped up in a huge way for the Warriors. The Warriors and Kings are not normally known for their defense, however, the Warriors had 5 Blocks as a team, and 12 Steals.

Both teams struggled from the three, which has been the case this series. The Kings shot well under 30 percent from downtown, and the Warriors barely shot 30 percent. Overall, the Warriors outrebounded the Kings, 59-53, shot better from the line, and dominated in the Paint.

Season Matchup

Game 1: Kings 125 -Warriors 130 (Warriors Home).

Betting Odds: Warriors (-10) Over/Under 232.5.

Game 2: Warriors 106 - Kings 114 (Kings Home).

Betting Odds: Warriors (-8), Over/Under 235.5.

Golden State Warriors

SG Gary Payton II (Probable): Illness.
SG Jordan Poole (Probable): Sprained Left Ankle.
F Andre Iguodala (OUT): Wrist.
G Ryan Rollins (OUT).

Key Players

Sacramento Kings

De’Aaron Fox

?Fox is one of the main reasons why this Kings team is so efficient, especially on the offensive side. Only 25 years old, Fox is averaging 29.3 Points, 3 Steals, 7.7 Assists, and 5 Rebounds in 3 Playoffs games against the Warriors. In addition, he’s averaging 68.5 Percent from the line, 44.4 Percent from the Field, and 33 Percent from the Three. He single-handedly carried this team to a win in Game 2 and averaged over 25 Points in all 3 regular Season games against the Warriors.

Fox has been nearly as efficient on the Road this season. He averaged 25 Points, 1.3 Steals, 6.2 Assists, and shot 49.8 Percent from the field in road games this season. Given the Warriors are at home, and are down in the series, look for Fox to continue his amazing gameplay. I fully expect him to lead the way for the Kings again this game.

Domantas Sabonis

?Domantas Sabonis has been an extremely important player when it comes down to rebounds and points down below. Standing at 7 Feet tall, he has what it takes to take over games, especially when the Warriors play small.

Sabonis is averaging 17 Points, 1.7 Steals, 3.3 Assists, and 13.7 Rebounds in the NBA Playoffs this year. He’s shooting 46.5 Percent from the field, and 61 percent from the Line. Although Sabonis hasn’t made nearly as many three-pointers, he shot 40 percent from downtown in 3 regular season games against the Warriors.

On the road, Domantas Sabonis averaged 19 Points, 6.5 Assists, and 12.6 Rebounds. In addition, he averaged over 60 percent from the field in road games. Sabonis will get another matchup against Looney, and Draymond Green, who is back in the lineup. Although Sabonis struggled offensively in the last game, he did grab 16 boards. If fully healthy from that sternum injury, I expect Sabonis to be a force on the glass.

Golden State Warriors

Stephen Curry

?Steph Curry has been a constant force, even in two playoff losses against the Kings. In 3 Playoff games, Curry is doing what he does best, and that’s leading this team. Curry is averaging 31.3 Points, 3.8 Assists, and 5 Rebounds. He is a pure shooter who is averaging 48.5 Percent from the Field, 38.5 Percent from the Three, and nearly 94 Percent from the Line.
Curry shoots even better in Home Games this season. He averaged 24.6 Points, 1.6 Steals, and shot nearly 43 percent from downtown. In 4 regular season games against the Kings, Steph Curry averaged over 30 Points, and shot 50 percent from the Three.

The Kings and the Warriors are not known for their defense. I fully expect Curry, along with Fox to facilitate the ball, and shoot high volume shots. With Green back, Curry will be able to get the shot off and on the ball.

Andrew Wiggins

?Andrew Wiggins has been outstanding in his 4 regular season games against the Kings. Wiggins averaged 25 Points, 2.3 Steals, and 6.3 Rebounds. He also averaged an incredible 55 percent from the Field, and 39 Percent from the Three. In 3 Post Season games, Wiggins is averaging 19.1 Points, 1.7 Blocks, 5 Rebounds, and is shooting 47 percent from the Field. Wiggins shoots efficiently at Home Games, 41 Percent from downtown, and 55.6 percent from the Field. It’s important to note, Wiggins is struggling from the three, and if he makes his shots, that can be the difference maker for the Warriors.

F**k you Jesus Bynum! NBA Live is not only still alive after you put it in a three-year coma, but EA Sports still believes it can compete with NBA2K and eventually take back the crown it wore for over a decade.

The Live franchise became known in 1994 but was born a half a decade earlier, in 1989, when EA released Lakers VS Celtics, the first game in their NBA Playoffs trilogy (Bulls vs Lakers and Bulls vs Blazers followed).

In 1993, they refreshed the series by calling it NBA Showdown, which was overshadowed by the 2-on-2 arcade classic NBA Jam, an NBA version of the underrated classic Arch Rivals.

A year later, right before Halloween, EA treated us to one of the greatest basketball games ever: NBA Live 95. After 15 years (going back to the Atari days) of basketball games with the same side angle, Live 95 used a 30-degree camera angle that felt as fresh and groundbreaking as the young Orlando Magic team with game-changer Penny Hardaway and backboard-breaking Shaquille O'Neal. The one issue with this game, and all games around this time was M.I.A. MJ, who owned his name and image and would only license it out for trash games like Chaos In The Windy City. EA's solution came in Live 96 with the option to create and name your own player; This allowed me to sub Nick Anderson, Dennis Scott and Horace Grant with myself, Michael Jordan and Chris Webber.

Over the following decade, the franchise continued to reign as it introduced features such as practice mode (99), Legend All-Star teams (2000) and freestyle Air (2005). During that time, we saw a lot of new competing franchises emerge: 2K/ESPN, Ballers, Courtside, Inside Drive and Shootout.

In 2010, EA decided it was time for another refresh and called their upcoming release NBA Elite 11. With Kevin Durant on the cover and Steph Curry and Brandon Jennings pushing the product, which was introducing new controls and a career mode like their "Superstar Mode" in the Madden NFL games, the game looked like a guaranteed hit. Then the demos were released. Online reviews of the demos plagued by bugs and the legend that is Jesus Bynum led to the cancellation of the game and the start of a three-year coma that ended with Kyrie Irving showing his face on the cover of NBA Live 14.

During that coma, sealed copies of Elite 11 have surfaced on eBay with a $10,000 price tag. Copies with the promotional display box (like mine below) often sell between $2,000-$5,000.

NBA LIVE 19 VS NBA2K19

So here we are, four years and four games later, and not only is Live still alive but a lot healthier than most 2K fans want to admit.

Here's a couple Live vs 2K comparison videos, followed by a compilation video showcasing EA Sports commercials between 1993 to 1999.

EA SPORTS HISTORICAL COMMERCIAL REEL (93-99)

And here's a photo of my copies of the EA basketball games of the 90s.

THE RETURN OF BYNUM

Speaking of Jesus Bynum and resurrections, guess who is back in the gym and looking to play in the NBA after a four-year absence?

Ratings for every staring lineup in NBA 2k19 pic.twitter.com/C28wID5aMI

— Mike Korzemba (@mikekorz) August 29, 2018

Thanks to NBA2K19 Launch Party attendee (and owner of one of my favorite YouTube channels) Mike Korzemba, we now know the ratings for every starting lineup in the upcoming game that continues to keep people from giving NBA Live a second chance since Jesus Bynum killed the franchise.

I'm not going to debate any of the very debatable ratings but here's a few random things I noticed.

  • Lowest rating: Tony Snell (73)
  • Lauri Markkanen (82) has the highest rating on the Bulls
  • The Cavs JR Smith & Cedi Osman have the same score (75)
  • They have Rajon Rondo, KCP, JaVale McGee, Brandon Ingram and LeBron as the starters for the Lakers
  • The Celtics & Warriors are the only teams without a player in the 70s. The Nuggest almost made the list but Will Barton was a 79.
  • Every starter on the Hawks and Kings is less than 80. The Knicks, Nets, Clippers, Hornets and Magic each have 1 player in the 80s

And here's a few pics and clips of that 1 player from the Nets with an 80 score (D'Angelo Russell: 83) and a bunch of other NBA players having fun in NYC at the Launch Party that included a performance from Travis Scott, who has one of the prettiest shots you will ever see.

The first ever 2HYPE + Bay vs LA Showcase Games presented by Ballislife is in the books and it was awesome! On the first night we had a practice session and everyone's surprise, OSN actually was killin it! The high schoolers were on point too and had a nice some nice 1-on-1 battles of their own. On Saturday August 18 during the actual Bay vs LA game, team L.A.'s Mobley brothers came out strong from the start! Evan Mobley of team L.A. and Robby Beasley of team Bay were named co-MVPs!

Editor's Note: High School Game begins at 9:08 in the recap video.

Nation's top junior prospect Evan Mobley leads SoCal team to 122-116 victory in inaugural Bay vs. LA Showcase Game presented by Ballislife played at Kezar Pavilion in San Francisco. Event also features Youtube celebrity game highlighted by Jesser, who takes home MVP honors after leading 2HYPE to a 84-68 win over Off Ballers.

By Ronnie Flores, Ballislife Grassroots Editor

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – In the inaugural 2HYPE + Bay vs. LA Showcase Basketball Games presented by Ballislife, the Northern California team had a talented and motivated club, not to mentioned a YouTube-driven pro-Bay crowd, in its attempt to knock off the favored Southern California club. What it didn't have, however, was 6-foot-11 junior Evan Mobley on its side, and his dynamic play ultimately turned out to be the deciding factor as L.A. rolled to a 122-116 victory over the Bay before over 1,000 fans at historic Kezar Pavilion near Golden Gate Park.

Mobley, from Rancho Christian (Temecula, Calif.), capped off a spectacular summer with 25 points, 14 rebounds and five blocked shots to lead the L.A. team to a wire-to-wire victory following the Bay's first made basket to open the scoring. It was a performance typical of what Mobley did in big games this summer on the grassroots circuit to elevate himself to the point where many consider him the best long-term prospect currently in the high school basketball ranks.

The SoCal club led 12-2 behind the inside play of Mobley and his older brother, USC-bound 6-foot-9 senior Isaiah Mobley (Rancho Christian, Temecula, Calif.), who finished with 18 points, seven rebounds and four assists. L.A. went up 61-33 at one point in the first half, but the Bay closed the first half strong, including a 15-4 run, to trail 65-50 at halftime.

The Bay's game effort was led by 6-foot-2 junior Robby Beasley of Dublin (Calif.) and 6-foot-3 senior Nimari Burnett of Prolific Prep (Napa, Calif.). L.A. once again opened up the game in the second half, taking a 92-69 lead, but behind a crowd loudly cheering its every basket, the Bay put together another big rally. The Bay used a 21-4 run to cut its deficit to six (96-90), but L.A. hit enough timely shots and the NorCal club couldn't come up with enough paint stops to get over the hump.

Evan Mobley was a relative easy MVP choice for the winning L.A. club while Beasley edged Burnett for Bay team MVP. Beasley came in with a great approach towards practice and it carried over to the game, as he gave great effort on both sides of the ball, finishing with 18 points, nine rebounds, two assists and two steals. Burnett knocked down two early 3-pointers to help the Bay get back in the game and finished with a team-high 20 points, eight rebounds and two rebounds. The Bay's Keshad Johnson, a bouncy 6-foot-7 senior wing from Envision Academy (Oakland, Calif.), drew rave reviews from his peers and finished with 16 points and six rebounds. Will Chaverin, a 6-foot-4 senior small forward from Bishop O'Dowd (Oakland, Calif.), added 12 points and six rebounds for the Bay. Coleman Hawkins, a 6-foot-9 forward who will transfer from Antelope (Calif.) to Prolific Prep (Napa, Calif.) for his junior season, added 12 points, six rebounds and two assists.

Rounding out the stat sheet for the Bay was the 10 points and five rebounds from 5-foot-11 junior point guard Bryce Monroe from Sacred Heart Cathedral (San Francisco, Calif.) while 6-foot-9 junior center Jhaylon Martinez of Vanden (Fairfield, Calif.) had eight points and seven rebounds. Six-foot-8 Senior forward Isaiah Hawthorne of Tracy (Calif.) added six points and six rebounds, 6-foot-4 senior guard Jonah Crumpton-Murray of Buchanan (Clovis, Calif.) had five points, 6-foot-1 junior point guard Xavion Brown of Sheldon (Sacramento, Calif.) finished with five points and three assists while 6-foot-5 junior forward Tyler Brinkman of Salesian (Richmond, Calif.) had two points, six rebounds and two assists.

For the L.A. team Johnny Juzang, a 6-foot-7 junior forward from Harvard-Westlake (North Hollywood, Calif.), hit three 3-pointers and finished with 20 points. Oregon State-bound 6-foot-3 senior guard Jarod Lucas of Los Altos (Hacienda Heights, Calif.) and a travel ball teammate of the Mobleys and Juzang on the Compton Magic adidas Gauntlet championship team, added 12 points with two three-pointers and four rebounds. Rounding out the stat sheet for L.A. was 6-foot-3 senior guard Jarred Hyder of Damien (La Verne, Calif.) with 11 points with two 3-pointers and five rebounds, USC-bound 6-foot-8 senior forward Max Agbonkpolo of Santa Margarita (Calif.) scored 11 points, Jaden Shackelford, a 6-foot-3 senior guard from Hesperia (Calif.), had 11 points and five rebounds, UCLA-bound 6-foot-6 senior forward Jake Kyman of Santa Margarita (Calif.) had 10 points and 10 rebounds, while Montana-bound 6-foot-3 senior guard Josh Vazquez of Bishop Montgomery (Torrance, Calif.) added two points and six assists.

Despite the star-studded talent in the high school game, the crowd was even more hyped up for the YouTube celebrity game and fittingly it was the biggest star of team 2HYPE that earned MVP honors for his victorious team.

Jesser, who is also known as JesserTheLazer, finished with 18 points to lead 2HYPE to a 84-68 win over the Off Baller$. Jesser, with the crowed chanting "MVP, MVP" every time he touched the ball, stole the show with a spin move in the key that rocked his defender and followed that fancy scoring bucket with a 3-pointer from five feet behind the NBA 3-point line on 2HYPE's next possession. The bonafide YouTube star finished with 18 points.

The celebrity game MVP for Off Baller$ was DAX, who doubles as a skilled basketball player and rapper. He finished with 21 points, including three 3-pointers. He also won the Youtube celebrity 3-point contest, making 17 of 25 shots from behind the arc. Lucas won the high school portion of the 3-point contest, besting Kyman.

The YT celebrity game's leading scorer was Jeron Smith of Off Ballers, who made a variety of shots to finish with 25 points. Zack and Cash Nasty added 15 and 13 points, respectively, for 2HYPE.

One of the biggest issues with NBA Live 18 was the movement of the players that were stiffer than some gamers watching NBA2KTV. According to our friend and popular YouTube gamer Jesser The Lazer, EA Sports has fixed that issue in the promising NBA Live 19, the fifth Live game since Jesus Bynum and NBA Elite 11 put the franchise in a coma.

You can check out the graphics and gameplay in the following videos by CashNasty, Kris London, Minimeter, IpodKingCarter and TrayTheKidd (above).?Keep in mind some of these videos were sponsored by Live, who also hooked them up with the opportunity to play James Harden 1-on-1 last year, so they probably aren't going to trash the game if they thought it was trash.

Personally, I think the game looks pretty good and since I grew up on the franchise (even before they started calling it 'Live'), I'm really hoping to see the game succeed or at least be considered competition to 2K aka the Golden State Warriors of video games.
