Will play the Warriors if this loses. If the Bulls cover, I'm done for the night.

play a favorite damnit!

I've developed a serious dislike of the Bulls.

They do this every time I take them -- play no D and get blown out. This is about the fourth time this year. Yet when I leave them alone, they play like they did against the Heat. I just never get them right.

I almost did. It's early, but yeah, I couldn't agree more re: fading the Thunder. You close your eyes and cover your balls.

Not exactly the way I figured they'd get the job done, but they got it done nonetheless.

Do you think Rose should attempt to come back, or just wait until next season?

Ralphie1412 · 04-11-13, 10:27 PM

Im in the wait till next season camp. If we had our exact same bench as last year I would be pulling my hair out by now. But as I said in the offseason the Bulls offseason was criminal. Got rid of CJ Watson, Kyle Korver, John Lucas, Omer Asik, Ronnie Brewer. The bench mob was huge. Our starting 5 couldnt touch the heats starting 5 but our 12 guys were better than theres as a whole.

After watching Rubio and Shumpert come back to early I say just wait till next year. Its not worth it. Hes too young. The next ten years will be a battle for the east between chicago and miami.

Don't mean to rub it in but shit teams have mailed it in already it looks like. I got killed about a week ago betting some dogs (went from up 4 units to down 21 in literally less than 10 days) and decided to call it quits til playoffs bar teams that still have something to play for.

koch & balls · 04-12-13, 10:44 PM

dogs are 9-3 today so far with 2 games to go where have u been SETO?

9-3 and I pick the three clunkers.

I'm not talking about just dogs, I'm talking about dogs who have nothing to play for playing against teams fighting for position. And I'm talking the past couple weeks, not just today.

I may be wrong. But that's the feeling I get. I at least know I got killed doing it (Rockets/Blazers game comes to mind)

No coincidences · 04-12-13, 11:09 PM

SS asks why I never bet faves.

Every single time I take a favorite, they shit all over themselves. Interesting that I'll be responsible for the Lakers missing the playoffs.

No coincidences · 04-12-13, 11:31 PM

Lakers now +290 live.

I officially killed them.

is this b/c of vyom guys take on the lakers? i know how you think hes the greatest thing since wonder bread and this isnt like you.

GL....my spread bet on LA is already toast. shame on me for betting on the lakers with howard/gasol

The Kraken · 04-12-13, 11:59 PM

I'm also on LA tonight. Maybe I gave them too much credit but from reading posts here, it's not playing out too terribly different than I expected. Except Curry apparently has 50 or close to it. But the FT advantage I expected LA to have has come through.

if no coin goes down with this pick, he certainly won't be alone. I'll be out 13 units

Dexter · 04-13-13, 12:06 AM

haha - nice hit......if you were watching you actually may have died from a heart attack.

curry is ridiculous...

I am at work, and almost died WITH HEart ATACK LOL !!

BigDofBA · 04-13-13, 12:23 AM

50-16 free throws and LA can only win by a hoop at home.....

I hope they do make the playoffs.

A sheer chase -- pissed off about my other three bets imploding tonight, and knowing full well the Jazz won and the league wants the Lakers in the playoffs. Stupid, desperate bets. Got lucky.

BigDofBA · 04-13-13, 12:43 AM

Utah will lose tomorrow. LA will win their next game against a banged up Spurs team. The final game of the season will be meaningless and LA will be able to rest everyone.

The writing is on the wall.

I saw the lakers were down by 7 or so with about five minutes left and laughed, I just felt somehow in the end they'd pull it out. Probably better I wasn't watching it though, I certainly over bet it and would have been on edge.

doubt they beat the spurs without kobe. The lakers are dead whether they make the playoffs or not, so they should just mail it in already.

Spurs are in free fall mode and they aren't even healthy at all.

FindTheLock · 04-13-13, 12:52 AM

without kobe ball hogging and getting ref bail out calls I don't see the lakers as a threat to anyone. They have no chemistry and most of their players are banged up and old too.

vyomguy · 04-13-13, 12:58 AM

lakers dont need kobe to beat spurs or the rockets. They will be fine without him.
