Washington put forth a tremendous performance in Game 5 to cut the series deficit against Pittsburgh, 3-2.\u00a0Andre Burakovsky (one goal, one assist) and Braden Holtby (20 saves on 22 attempts) led the way for the Capitals who\u00a0scored three times in a span of eight minutes to start the final period on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Action now shifts to Pittsburgh for Game 6 with the Penguins looking to end the series once and for all. For the defending Stanley Cup champions to grab the clincher, they will need\u00a0to get a huge performance from star Sidney Crosby. Game 5 was Crosby&#8217;s quietest 60-minute performance of the series as he still battled the effects of the concussion he suffered in the first period of Game 3. \u00a0Crosby, who led the NHL with 44 goals in the regular season,\u00a0finished with an assist and three shots on goal in Game 5.<\/p>\n<h3>Writer\u2019s Prediction<\/h3>\n<p>Washington (<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/hockey\/nhl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>EVEN<\/strong><\/a>) forces a Game 7 with a thrilling 3-2 win.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Golden State Warriors vs. Utah Jazz\u00a0(9:00 PM ET)<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Line:<\/strong>\u00a0Golden State Warriors (<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>-8.5<\/b><\/a>) vs. Utah Jazz (<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>+8.5<\/b><\/a>); total:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>207.5<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\"><strong>view all NBA lines<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Golden State Warriors will look to complete the series sweep when they lock horns with the Utah Jazz\u00a0later tonight.\u00a0Kevin Durant showed his worth on Saturday, scoring 11 of his\u00a0game-high 38 points in the final six minutes of Game 3. His offensive explosion was very much needed as the Splash Brothers struggled mightily with their shooting touch in Game 3. Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry combined to score just 29 points in that contest against the Jazz.<\/p>\n<p>For the Jazz to grab the all-important victory in Game 4 tonight, they will need their reserves to step up their play.\u00a0Utah&#8217;s bench was limited to just 10 points on Saturday as they shot a combined 4 of 22 from the field. That simply won&#8217;t do against a Golden State side that&#8217;s still undefeated in this year&#8217;s playoffs.<\/p>\n<h3>Writer\u2019s Prediction<\/h3>\n<p>Golden State (<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>-8.5<\/strong><\/a>) ends Utah&#8217;s title hopes with a convincing 103-86 win.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/6\" class=\"broken_link\" rel=\"nofollow\">Create a betting account now<\/a>, and don\u2019t forget to bet on today\u2019s best games.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4zX172zxPL8HmNd7ZgqdRLk\/20\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-89017 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/NBA-News-Banner_620x110_v31.gif\" alt=\"NBA-News-Banner_620x110_v3\" width=\"620\" height=\"110\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"pvc_stats all \" data-element-id=\"140027\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> &nbsp;2,252&nbsp;total views, &nbsp;1&nbsp;views today<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NBA and the Stanley Cup Playoffs keep rolling along with two mouth-watering games coming your way tonight.
