Orlando +7 (+105) 2nd half

[BigDofBA]

Really want to take them +4 at +178 but I might as well take the points.

I'm pushing the envelope a little here as I've had a good night otherwise I might not make this play. Orlando is coming off a B2B and I'm sure the average bettor assumes they will wear down in the second half. I don't think so.

We'll see. GL.

gutsy play. I looked at this for a while and wanted to pull the trigger on the +8 but didn't trust them enough.

It's best to lay off late night degenerate plays like this if you're not sure.

I took +8 -105 They've been wanting last 2 nights

[BigDofBA]

I should have taken the +4 (+178) like I wanted to initially....

A BS league. Why is Westbrook in your avatar if you don't like the NBA? Westbrook is part of the NBA chief. OKC lost fair and square to Miami. Nothing was rigged. Both teams got their because they were the two best teams in the NBA. The best teams usually get to the finals every year. It's not college basketball. Get over it.

How in the hell is this about OKC or Miami CHIEF.

Miami was the better team. The better team wins 7 game series.

The Lakers made excuses for losing to OKC in the final minutes of games during the playoffs. My response, the better makes the plays in crunch time.

Well, the same thing happened in the Finals. Three of those games were one possession games in the final minute but Miami got it done. I give them props. No excuses from me. The young Thunder had a hell of a year.

Heat will get the benefit of every whistle. James and Wade are two of the top 20 players in nba history. James asserting himself as top 5 of all time. Game 2 where Durant got fouled clearly refs will never call that in the final seconds of an nba finals game when a top 5 player in nba history is guarding you. BTW Miami led that game the entire game. Wire to wire. OKC never led.

OKC lost because of the reasons that were mentioned in writeps before the series started. Harden was a bad matchup in this series and Brooks was going to toy with the idea of having him guard Lebron James for stretches which I knew because I know Brooks. And that absolutely buried OKC. Harden never recovered in that series and couldn't score consistently.

Westbrook we all knew would make mental errors that would cost OKC. The matchups were not in the Thunder's favor. Like BigDOA said, Miami was the better team. It was OBVIOUS Miami was the better team.

If Kobe Bryant plays in the finals he's gonna get the whistle. Jordan got the whistle. Wade and James get the whistle. That doesn't mean it's rigged or your team is going to win. Bryant has lost plenty of nba finals games where he still got the whistle all the time.

all fair points and no disagreements

[BigDofBA]

Yeah, Miami was obviously better. With that said, OKC still hasn't reached their full potential.
