    Two more gifts or two traps ?

    Toronto +6, at home, just won by 15.
    OKC +1.5 at home, just won by 28.

    I don't know if Toronto can do it again, Cleveland was just so
    uninterested, they were clueless. LeBron has become a point guard.
    Kevin Love is a useless turd. Kyrie Irving is too weak.

    NBA is so fishy. You can't trust anything. Betting NBA is like a
    game of "guess the fix".. did Toronto win so Cleveland could close it
    at home ? Did Toronto win for NBA front office reasons ? Why didn't
    LeBron get to the line ? Why didn't Cleveland get the calls like they
    did at home ? They played dead or got beat ?

    OKC is more logical, they expose GSW lack of defense and lack
    of drive. If those jumpers ain't falling at a high rate, GSW are finished.

    Toronto is a gift

    GSW should come back strong unless Okl City is just too physical for them

    Cavs line jumped out to me, but that was when JV was listed as doubtful. Now I'm hearing he's likely to play. Biz will/should get his 40 minutes again, or at least 35 tonight. They need his presence, Cavs got way too many points in the paint G1 and G2, neutralized that completely in G3. Having to go to Scola or Patterson at the 5 when he sits is a killer. Scola played 17 after racking up countless DNP before the injury, you give those minutes to a guy like JV (realistically he doesn't play more than 22 in his first game back) instead and the Raps are marginally better.

    Play JV off the bench and force Cleveland to go big down low. When they come off the bench with that Frye/Love big combo they've been able to bust open some big runs with all that shooting on the floor. You have to have someone on the block to keep them from running with that lineup often.

    the fact that the cavs line stayed at -6 makes me think vegas really thinks cavs win this one easy

    I've always felt it was a lot of points and still do even in a spot where Cavs will play with a higher sense of urgency. They were laying 6-6.5 in Detroit and 2-3 in Atlanta. Raptors are a much better team than both, and one of the best home teams in the league. Books usually stick to their guns in the offs though, I didn't expect them to move the line much.

    Something that I stumbled upon for this Cavs/Raptors series is that the half has gone over every game. Something to probably consider for tonight. BOL guys.

    Taking a shot with Toronto and OKC moneyline, Game 4's.

    No proverbial public plays for me. "They lost game 3, HAVE to bet them in game 4" .

    I already read on Colin Cowherds twitter, GState game 4 is a no brainer. LOL. If I had that guys money to bet with..

    they didnt stick to their guns in the GS series.. GS was -3 in G3 and now -1 or -1.5 in G4....

    Also G1 GS -7.5... G2 was GS -9

    G1 Cavs -10.5.. G2 Cavs -12.5

    Cavs G4 is the only game in the Conference Finals in which they actually HAVE stuck to their guns

    Anyone who takes state in game 4 needs a mental evaluation.

    tempting to do a teaser with OKC and Cleveland.
    I don't trust the Raptors. They had their game.

    I completely agree. I think cleveland will make some more shots, kyrie will be much better and they should cover. Golden state is the result im very uncertain of. Yes it seems unlikely they would go down 3-1. But that was pathetic last night. Hard to be sure they can just turn it around that much just because they were the favorite comig into the series.

    cavs should roll raptors tonight.

    green's status for game 4 is a bit question mark. i don't see warriors having 2 awful shooting games in a row.

    I doubt Toronto can continue to keep Love shooting 1-9 for 3 points, and Irving shooting 3-19

    Im living in Vegas because the these professional games are scripted. (Super Bowl 50 was my biggest bet to date).

    So yes, to answer your question. Just have to be able to take the fan glasses off, which 90 percent of America can't do. The ones who think Kobe just had it in him to score 60 points in his final game leading a come back win, in a season which he struggled consistently putting up 15.

    Comical to me.

    As the old saying goes the series is close until someone loses on their home court..

    Toronto game is sketchy tonight.. Cavs should come out determined but the Raptors typically show well at home with those crazy Canadian fans supporting them.. You still get the feeling the Cavs have the upper hand in this series though..


    OKC really showed last night, Warriors had a horrible shooting night and that usually doesn't happen that often.. I fully expect the Warriors to rebound hard in the next game. That series is still up for grabs IMO..

    It's not about them. Those two don't make a team. You know who it's really about,
    he has to dominate or they have no chance.

    Who wanna get paid?

    $200.00 $160.00 Pending 5/23/16 8:30pm NBA Props Basketball 2119 L.James has a double-double -125* vs L.James no double-double

    $100.00 $140.00 Pending 5/23/16 8:30pm NBA Props Basketball 2171 K.Love has a double-double +140* vs K.Love no double-double

    10 rebounds and 10 points how hard is that in this rebound game when both of these players should show up? Lebron might even get a triple double with assists..

    I love how some people are saying things like oh the league wants this to be a longer series, even after that game. I took cleveland in this game and I still must admit that the reffing was horribly bias towards the cavs, specifically in the first half. The league definitely didn't have a "fix" in on the raps.
