It is the same as game 2, thouch Lebaby's or Wade's jersey and its a foul. Hack Rose and its a missed layup

The 1st and 4th quarters were fuking brutal

When is the last time you have seen a home team get called for 4 fouls in 45 seconds to get thee other team in the penalty ( Game 2 )......... and a team get called for an offensive foul on 3 straight possesions when they are trying to cut into a 6 point deficit ( last night late in the 4th )

You are so right, GG, about not letting a favorite team influence ones betting.

any blind eye no capping leans?

Ineed$$ · 05-23-11, 10:16 AM

Guys, I need a little help. Where can I find statistics for over/under series lengths in current and past seasons in MLB, please?

I agree.. but Rose played like shit also.

He has to play like an MVP. If he could drive the lane and get to the rim against Indiana and Atlanta which have much bigger and better frontcourt players...he should be able to do so against the heat

Yeah, but he's stops driving to the rim if he doesn't get calls. I would like to see him looking to shoot more from the outside this series. I know he wants to get the rest of the team involved, but when they're not getting anything going he needs to look to shoot more. I would also tell boozer to look to shoot first, he's so indecisive when he gets the ball. When he's open, he needs to put it up right away. Noah is all flustered by the refs, he needs to settle down and not get frustrated.

Im on OKC -3.5.

Some interesting facts about a home team losing game 3, then winning game 4 in SJ55 basketball thread

aragongamber · 05-23-11, 10:37 AM

good luck for everybody for the next ones!

Whitesox? Against Texas @ home? (with cws worst pitcher vs Texas' best) and hamilton and Cruz coming back? What makes you wanna go "BIG" on this matchup GG? Just curious..

1bfqrsx79 · 05-23-11, 11:39 AM

I dont see the value in it at all. We always look for that edge, i see none in the cws game. Cant see why it would be your top pick. Thats just my opinion.

Johhny Danks is the wsox BEST PITCHER....Talent wise and over the last 3 years

Dont let his record and slow start fool you

Also dont you think everyone and their mother is thinking this : hamilton and Cruz coming back

GGRIF82 · 05-23-11, 12:16 PM

CWS

vinnydevitz · 05-23-11, 12:19 PM

GG what do you think of the brewers tonight i know you dont like to play big favorites but i really like the brewers and i feel its a good spot for them do you agree or you do you think the nationals have a decent chance of winning??

wsox have won 5 of 6 , 11 of 15 ( they are 11-4 thier last 15 games )

texas has lost 3 of 4 , 12 of 18, 16 of 26

and you see no value in the wsox at + 145 ???

Danks over the last three years is 40-31 with a 3.51 era

thebonzman · 05-23-11, 12:34 PM

works for me!

goldengreek · 05-23-11, 12:36 PM

Yesterdays MLB: 7-10 ( -8.85 Units )

MLB YTD: 373-296 ( + 434.90 Units )

add to that ..rangers bats are asleep

5 runs total in their last 4 games and have averaged 2.9 runs a game over their last 10 games

vinnydevitz · 05-23-11, 12:39 PM

If you could do me a favor and just let me know what you think after capping all the games i would much appreciate it... I put a bet in last night because i was fairly confident but would feel better if i knew you liked it and can't wait for your nba plays today i just know were gonna get it back

joco · 05-23-11, 01:01 PM

gotta fade on the tigers. even tho phil coke had a good last outing he has looked terrible every other game this year. and i like the white sox theyve been hot just like u said. and red sox is a good play cuz bucholz is finally pitching well

Tgordon777 · 05-23-11, 01:23 PM

leanin towards the home dog astros against a banged up LA squad...any thoughts?

terrortwylight · 05-23-11, 01:28 PM

gv12 · 05-23-11, 01:40 PM

terrortwylight · 05-23-11, 01:42 PM

Excellent points. I am already on them and your comments on Danks are correct. He is a respectable big league pitcher. Ogando has been spectacular, but, just like the market after a steep rise, is due for a correction. It happens all the time. May not tonight, but the sharp play is the Sox.

beeney24 · 05-23-11, 03:04 PM

under would be the play -- Rangers will get hot, but it may be a week or so--

He'll post first picks with unit amounts around 6:30. Be patient - - it'll be worth it (usually!). He usually waits until 30 minutes before game time to finish his capping, in order to take into account any last-minute pitching changes, injuries, etc.

I'm tailin' .

SORRY = wrong quote - - Meant to quote Kram (6 posts) to answer his question..sorry, befus!

leafs_ducks · 05-23-11, 03:21 PM

Danks isn't as good as u make him out to be. But BOL.

memo99 · 05-23-11, 03:32 PM

what do you think about TB GG? That looks too easy with the Rays best record in mlb away from home, Hellickson 5-2 record against Phil Coke's 1-5 record
