Celtics +6.5

[BigDofBA]

Same type of scenario as with the Bulls yesterday but the Knicks are little more talented and Melo is slightly above Williams in terms of not being able to win anything in the NBA.

I think Boston keeps it tight like Memphis did last night and could possibly win but I'm not confident enough to play the ML. GL

[Seto]

For whatever it's worth, similar line movement to GS/Denver game 1 where line went from 7.5 to 8 then came back down to 7.5 shortly before tip.

GL. I'm on the Warriors, obviously I'd rather have David Lee there but fading the Nuggets in the playoffs getting 8 points is always a good bet to me, especially since Warriors kinda need this game to win the series IMO.

[BigDofBA]

As for the other underdogs, I don't see any good reason to take the Warriors or Bucks.

I think both could lose by double digits easily.

Golden State would obviously be the better play but I don't trust them at Denver.

GL Seto.

im on den-8 mia-14

ill go some on the rest (mia un 197, den ov 208, bos +6.5 un 185.5)

i expect 4-2 at worst. 5-1 ill be happy

[Speedy88]

This game is tough to get a read on. I'm actually kind of leaning towards NYK here.

[Pride]

yeah im with you man celts cant possibly lose by 7 with how fired up they will be. defense will be on lock and you know they will shoot well.

easy money play

[t-wizzle]

I think either Boston wins the game or Knicks cover.

[Speedy88]

A lot of love for Boston in here. Haven't seen one person on Knicks.

[Nickoli]

Celtics +6.5. Going to be going down swinging.

[BigDofBA]

Good half.

[Speedy88]

Celts 2H looks intriguing. Knowing the Celts they'll either win or completely fall apart and lose by 7 or more.

[Seto]

Took Celtics 2nd half. They won't fold like in game 1 IMO. I think they jump out to a DD lead in the 3rd, New York will make a late run but fall short.

[secret007]

Celtics ALWAYS played well in the first 3 quarters. Watch out for the fourth quarter meltdown.
Celtics will need to lead by AT LEAST 6 if they want to win the game.

Coming from a Celtics fans.

You mean at least 6 after 3? A 3 or 6 point lead doesn't make much of a difference really with 12 full mins left. Only 1 or 2 buckets. It's not like this team all of a sudden has forgotten how to execute down the stretch, they're a veteran team, they'll find a way.

[Vinnie Paz]

Celtics crumbling.
Good grief.

[amrit]

Took Knicks -6.5 2nd half and over 92, what do you guys think?

Yea, I mean 6 points AT least after 3.. this Celtics team always find the hard way to finish a game. Down by 2 already, KG is living on a tight rope here. He knew he had to do something more defensively but he can't because of the damn foul trouble.

Well you f.u.c.k.e.d. that up didn't you, Seto. The Celtics fell apart in the second half just like last game because they are old as hell. Don't you "understand about situational betting is, you fukking moron?" First loss of the night for Seto.

[BigDofBA]

Awesome third quarter Boston. Outscored 32-11.

Not looking good.

[secret007]

You've still got some chances.. They have to utilize KG more on the post. Knicks are playing really small at the moment. 3 guards and 2 forwards basically.

[t-wizzle]

Basketball all about the runs. Maybe Boston has one in them for you. I am hoping they do not.

[vasilli07]

No more chance. Celtics just can't stop Melo.

[Speedy88]

Looks like they chose to fold. Time to blow up the team Danny Ainge.

[secret007]

If you want to take Celtics in game 3, take them first half. Probably PK or -1 dont take them for full game.

I will probably take KG props again in game 3, he will be more effective ( at least I'm hoping he will be )

[Vinnie Paz]

Kg just retire already

[t-wizzle]

Tough to blow up but they could get creative and phase out the old guys gradually. Build around Rondo, Bradley, Green and find a way to bring in another good player and still keep Pierce.

Like I said, I own your soul.

no one even knows what that means. I will clown you constantly though, like I said I would.

No one? I think you meant "I don't know what that means"

Whatever you say pal. Enjoy "clowning" me, your thoughts are so valuable to me.
