LeBron James is continuing to build his accolades and came two assist shy of joining Magic Johnson and Wilt Chamberlain as the only players with back-to-back Finals triple doubles.

He also has scored more through three games than any player in NBA history, with 123 points, passing both Rick Barry and Jerry West. Can he continue the greatness? Is anyone betting against him?

 

LeBron James 35.5 Total Points (O -150; U +120)

OVER. LeBron James is averaging 41 points per game in the NBA Finals and has now scored more than any player ever for the first three games. Remind me why anyone would bet against him having another monster game. Moreover, for the last three games, I’d stated he scores “36-plus.” The same statement applies for Game 4.

LeBron James 10.5 Total Rebounds (O -120; U -110)

OVER. LBJ has averaged 14 rebounds per game over the past two games. Unless someone posits a “he’s running out of energy” argument effectively, this is another over.

LeBron James 8.5 Total Assists (O -140; U +110)

Here the UNDER actually does make sense. It pays out relatively well at +110 and he’s failed to record the ‘over’ in two of the past three games. He had eight in Game 3, as he was two assists shy of completing his triple-double.

LeBron James 1.5 Total Threes (O -175; U +145)

OVER. James has shown his reliance on the three when he gets tired. He took six, six, and eight in the last three games and has averaged 2.3 threes over that span. He’ll take at least six again tonight, as he likes it from the left wing if he doesn’t go to backing down Andre Iguodala.

LeBron James 2.5 Steals + Blocks (O -155; U +125)

UNDER. Yes, he did have six in Game 3, but in the two games prior to that he averaged just one block/steal per game. He’s not going to do everything well. The under also is at attractive +125 odds here, which is a good value considering he has only gone over this mark in one of his last three games.

Matthew Dellavedova 11.5 Total Points (O -145; U +115)

This is really hard to feel safe on, but the OVER at -145 seems right. Matthew Dellavedova scored 20 points in Game 3, having essentially the game of his life. It is a matter of whether or not to buy the hype or not. This is a guy who had played just 26 minutes in the two games total prior to Games 2 and 3 which saw him start. He knocked down 7 of 17 in Game 3, but will he get that many shots again? Still, let’s roll with the OVER here.

Matthew Dellavedova 1.5 Total Threes (O -135; U +105)

Staying away here. He’s averaged 1.5 over these last two games, hitting 2 of 6 in Game 3. He’s typically a better shooter, having hit 40.7 percent from the arc during the regular season. The difference is he’s being asked to do a lot more now, and he took just 4.6 shots per game in 2014-15.

J.R. Smith 14 Total Points (O -135; U +105)

UNDER. The theme here we are seeing in this NBA Finals is that J.R. Smith really is hot garbage. He’s averaged 11.3 points per game in the Finals thus far, but has shot just 12 of 35 from the field. He’s going to get the threes up, he shot five in the last two games, but with his horrible shot selection it almost always seems to make sense to bet against him.

J.R. Smith 2.5 Total Threes (O -170; U +140)

UNDER. We’re sticking with the J.R. is garbage motif, and he hasn’t made more than two in the last two games.
