early enough to get this started i say.

have to think the books arent going to be paying out a ton of parlays at around 2/1 odds on the heat spurs and pacers.

[texhooper]

Well, of the three if I had to choose I'd say Wizards.

[Cuse0323]

Spurs finish it off...Wiz have a shot but wouldn't be real confident.

[Seto]

As of now I'd say...

Wizards and Nets get up early but could/will probably lose anyway. Both likely close games.

Portland either gets blown out or wins outright.

[vasilli07]

You can't put your money on a player who is scared to shoot. I mean John Wall. I see all 3 teams losing in 5.

[The Kraken]

Neither

[Pauulzcappin]

I wonder how much they are gonna set the line at Spurs game to get any Portland money

[SportsMushroom]

the only certainty is miami, nets dont have the legs to compete with them, maybe if they were 5 years younger, losing 5th seed to wiz is haunting them, if they were facing indy right now they would be heading to ecf

pacers and wiz have shown no consistency at all, you never know what you are gonna get with these two, one game they are world beaters and the next they look like its the first time they've seen a basket ball. pacers have the momentum and should win in what is expected to be another ugly game in the series, but this game is essentially a crap shoot

only team with the talent to give themselves a legit chance to win are the blazers, the question is, will they show up? they seem to be fatigued but if they have a good night it will be anyones game


if you are convinced one team will steal one to extend the series i would say take portland and wizards, even if you split you should make a nice profit

[rm18]

Brooklyn is the least likely portland and the wizards are capable of making things interesting

[Pauulzcappin]

Damian Lilliard can't perform on the road, Nicolas Batum also to some extent.

Lotta people came down hard on him for that, I dont see anything he did wrong.

[vasilli07]

Lotta people came down hard on him for that, I dont see anything he did wrong.

Just like in the past when people were blaming at LBJ when he refused to take the last shot of the game.

If you watched the game, you will see the fear in Wall's eyes. He was so scared he will miss that he doesn't even shoot when open, choosing to pass instead. He is the team best player and he needs to show that.

[vividjohn45]

Id think the wizards are done, indy will play to clinch and rest vs the onplaying heat. A few days off for indy means more prep time vs the heat.

[thetrinity]

spurs bigger favorites then heat wednesday, not really that surprised actually, i would have said wizards nets blazers in that order most to least likely to win.

[Pauulzcappin]

If I actually laid -350 on anything before gametime, I'd put it on the spurs np.

[RavensFan2k3]

Lol why would you word it like that? So you're saying Wiz are least likely to win and Blazers have the highest chance of winning?

[mac_514]

leaning wiz plus points..might even go ML

[violivei12]

He didn't shoot that shot because of what happened in game 2 when he took the two ill advised 3 pointers in the last few minutes and missed both. He got criticized heavily for it and so in game 4 when he had a wide open 3 in a similar situation he passed it up. Wall is not a confident shooter at all and the combination of missing shots and getting criticized is a terrible thing for a player like him. He has much to work on this off season. However I do think there is value in the Wizards at +5.5. They have played better on the road all season (4-1 on the road in the playoffs, 1-3 at home).

[homie1975]

wizards have best chance,

then nets have second best chance,

trailblazers have literally NO chance,

[LT Profits]

Conspiracy theorist would say that either the Nets or Blazers HAVE to win to make sure there is a game on Friday.

[LT Profits]

There will be no games on Saturday regardless, does the NBA want back-to-back off days Friday/Saturday?
