Yeah I can't really figure the game out. Clipps will win, just not really sure if they cover the spread.

C'mon Denver, don't fukk this up.

**BigDofBA** · 04-30-13, 09:25 PM

The Clippers are overrated. They'll win this series because they have home court but they won't win the West imo.

I think LA wins but doesn't cover tonight.

**t-wizzle** · 04-30-13, 09:30 PM

This game is my year in a nutshell.

**t-wizzle** · 04-30-13, 09:41 PM

Clipjoint win. Should be a tight game. They will pull it out with Chris Paul late. Free throws may decide it.

**t-wizzle** · 04-30-13, 09:43 PM

I want to puke.

**Speedy88** · 04-30-13, 09:44 PM

Gotta love that ending. Fukkn NBA.

**t-wizzle** · 04-30-13, 09:46 PM

Anyone who has followed me this year knows that game completely sums up my year in the nba. This shit has been killing me all fukking year long.

**BigDofBA** · 04-30-13, 09:57 PM

Denver -7.5 or -8 was the right side.

**t-wizzle** · 04-30-13, 11:05 PM

Grizzlies 2H +5.5 -110 (12x); ML +210 (2x)

**t-wizzle** · 04-30-13, 11:07 PM

Clippers are getting exploited badly tonight. Grizzlies bigs are wearing them down and as a result perimeter guys like Bayless are getting some good looks. Memphis will win this game. This is a fukk the line movement play - my eyes are telling me Memphis and that's good enough for me.

Nuggets didn't cover either of those

A bet that lost is not the 'right' side.

**t-wizzle** · 04-30-13, 11:12 PM

Adding:

Grizzlies +6 -110 (5x)

Sport Fish you are a hater. BigD said it was the right side and it didn't end up being the right side. What it was is a sick beat. Team leads by 15-20 for 90% of the game should always cover a 7.5 point spread but it didn't work out. Don't try and come in and break balls though I know you are trying to rub alcohol in the wound.

How am I a hater? And why would i wanna rub alcohol on the wound? Believe me I'm not one of those who gets happy seeing people lose money to bookies.

I just sincerely disagree with people who say a bet was 'right' even though it lost. Yeah sure they led most the game, but I could also say the opposite like, 'oh if they made a 3 on spot X and spot Y it should've been even closer'. And he posted that AFTER the game, if he posted before 'i think denver is the right side' i wouldn't say anything oviously.

If a bet loses it just means u were on the wrong end. Even a guy who hits 80% knows 20% he will be on the wrong side. It doesn't mean all his bets were 'right' eventho he lost 2/5ths of them.

Because we've had our battles on the forum before.

No battles man. I remember it was just an instance where I just called you out on posting something. I don't know if you meant to post it that way but it came off as that and I just made a post highlighting it, which seemed to upset you.

Anyway, still no reason for me to rub in a loss to you, or anyone. But I guess if u feel that way, so be it.

**t-wizzle** · 05-01-13, 12:27 AM

Fukkin bounce back and make profit on the night. That win feels good.

**t-wizzle** · 05-01-13, 11:08 AM

Thunder -8.5 -105 (10x)

**t-wizzle** · 05-01-13, 05:10 PM

Celtics +9 -110 (6x)
Celtics 1H +5 -110 (4x)

I think Boston hangs tough here and might even find themselves leading (again) early. Ultimately the Knicks will make a run and pull this thing out though so I will probably not even bother with the ML. Tough to pass up at +450 but I just don't see Boston winning this game. Might be worth a small play so I may throw a unit on it but most likely not.

I'm on both. Celtic pride tonight.

**t-wizzle** · 05-01-13, 07:12 PM

Looks like we can go ahead and cash Celtics 1H. Hope they can hang in there. Would love to see them pull this out but I think I know where this game is going.

**t-wizzle** · 05-01-13, 08:10 PM

Celtic Pride.

**YOUNGBUCK** · 05-01-13, 08:12 PM

Gotta love that Celtic Pride by the vets. Went all out on the Celts tonight and played everything but the ML (played 1Q, 1H, 2H, Full game) . Looks like we are going to see a game 7. Good luck on OKC, think I'm going to leave that game alone for now.

Wish I wasn't so adament about the ML not hitting.

**t-wizzle** · 05-01-13, 09:56 PM

Thunder 2H -9 -110 (5x)

Probably dead money but there is value here in my opinion. OKC goes on runs better than pretty much any team in the league. Even without Westbrook, all it will take is one swing in the momentum and OKC will feed off the energy of the crowd and go off.

That said, the Thunder clearly need a boost and Houston is the team with the confidence right now. Would not be surprised if this game followed the same formula as Knicks and Clippers last night - I just think OKC is very capable of making up the difference quickly especially against that Houston defense.

It really only takes and Ibaka block and Durant dunk to get the crowd involved. I haven't seen the crowd that dead in the playoffs ever. It's like everyone hungover the first game back home after the Westbrook injury.

Yea a couple plays and they will go nuts. OKC can make up this deficit in no time so the value is there.

As in before the series? I'm not sure what the odds were.

Bulls were +125 before game 1

Warriors Live -12 -110 (5x)

They will run away here. Risky but this should hit.

**t-wizzle** · 05-02-13, 11:58 PM

No clue where this just came from for Denver.

No shit. That was a complete 180. I thought for sure they were going to lose by 20 +.

Marc Jackson just used his final timeout. He sucks.
