Do people really think the Warriors are going to beat the Spurs in a 7 game series?

    I'm talking strictly about the series. Are you going to bet on them to win this series? Do you think they will win this series?
    this is an internet gambling forum.. no one is offended, that is a laughable comment.

    no one in the right mind thinks they will win the series, if by that you mean more than half of the time. Do I think they have better than a 1/7 shot of winning the series, which would justify laying +650? Actually I don't, but I don't think they're very far off this number. I'd say they definitely have a better than 10% shot. by your tone, it seems that you give them less than 5%, yet by what you've said in this thread you're thinking what i am: neither series price has much value, if any, and the spurs will likely win the series. AS IS THE CASE WITH MOST -850/+650 lines.

    you think that laying +650 is 'a waste of money' and that laying -850 is 'just as stupid as laying +1200 on lakers to win the west'. it doesn't seem you have much of an opinion on this line whatsoever, and simply started a thread to let us know that a -850 team with championships, home court advantage, and tons of playoff experience under their belt will beat a young, inexperienced team. if so, great thread and i'll bow out.

    as far as your mark jackson comment, you would totally disagree with it if you read half the things the Warriors players have said about him throughout the year.

      The Warriors are a talented team and way ahead of schedule. Even if they lose to the Spurs, it will have been a hell of a year.

      With that said, I keep seeing all these threads that proclaim value and I just don't see it.

        i guess we have been in agreement the whole time then. we haven't beaten the spurs in san antonio in 16 years, and i think this year was the first time we beat them at home in like 6. they own us. anything can happy if curry is regularly putting together 14-22 point spurts in half a quarter.

          Oracle is one of the best home courts in the league. I hate when OKC plays there. I also think Golden State is really talented.

          With that said, they don't have enough experience yet imo to beat a team like the Spurs. This will be a could series for them to learn from and build on in the future.

          Also, Lee is out which hurts them. The Warriors will have chances at home but I don't see them winning in San Antonio.

There is value because GS offense can run with the best but if they really want to get into a shootout with the Spurs they have to keep it close and its possible they can do that, but they can't get bullied and turn it over like they did in Game 6 and pretty much all of that series.
            Goddamn my capping skills are on point. There should still be a lot of value in this series.

                  It's not a talent thing with the Warriors. They just are young and inexperienced.

                  San Antonio has been there.

                        GS can't lose confidence here. They went into San Antonio and took it to double overtime, all they need to do is clean up those mistakes take care of the ball and they could win this in 7 games. They need to figure it out and toughen up seriously!!

                          Do you think Golden State is going to continue to shoot 57% and the Spurs are going to continue shooting %37 for the first three quarters?

                          Golden State need to steal this one when the Spurs were flat.

                          The truth of the matter is that Golden State played great bball for 44 minutes, the Spurs played like shit for 44 minutes, and the Spurs still won. That isn't good.

                              Golden state just blew a 18 point lead, thats not good ball at all. GS can continue to shoot 57%, it won't be Curry but he can easily set up his mates especially off the double = high % shot. Spurs will shoot better the first 3 quarters I guess but most likely will be under 50% at the end of the game, depends how crazy pop goes with the substitutions. I wouldn't say Spurs played flat this game they still put up numbers and came back to win this is just going to be a close series. I am thinking GS in 6 or 7.

                                  Golden State hasn't won anything yet and you thought all these people were crazy after game 1 as well.

                                  Aren't you on the Spurs -7.5 tonight?

                                              This young Warriors team is growing up before our eyes. With that said, they still need to win three more.

                                                  You agreed with me after game 1 which is why you took the Spurs and then you bumped it when they were down. It didn't make sense since you were on them -7.5.

                                                  Anyway, I don't care what people think on here. So what.

                                                  Right or wrong, I'll be here at the end of the series. Nice hit on the Warriors 2nd half.

                                                    Yea. First time I've been wrong on a game in a week. I'm not too worried at least I made back most of it on the Live bet. Thanks.

                                                      I'm fairly confident Warriors will blow out these scrubs game 3. Gonna go big on it.

                                                      We can talk all we want about 'experienced team vs inexperienced team' 'young' etc etc...but if these 2 games have showed anything, its that Warriors are the better team. I would've never thought this before the series started but Warriors have proven otherwise.

                                                      That Lakers series was so misleading because we saw Spurs playing so well - but in reality all they did was beat a shit Lakers team. Warriors are more athletic, have better shooters and seem to be able to play solid D vs Spurs. Warriors win game 3 for sure and most likely finish this off in 6.

                                                        This young Warriors team is growing up before our eyes. With that said, they still need to win three more.
                                                        Sure will enjoy it... and will enjoy the rest of the series coz most likely this series over

What happened with San Antonio last playoffs? up 2-0 and got spanked by a younger, faster team. And your saying now, with yet ANOTHER year under their belt...playing a younger, faster team they will just cruise? I think not. Mega value when i got series at +695. Option to hedge down the road.
                                                                    Im looking good. Spurs lucky they arent down 0-2. Current series prices now is GS +160. Its what i do...

                                                                    On a side note: I have pacers for series +160. Parlay heat -950 (after first loss) and pacers +100 (after 1st win). Wish i parlayed the GS +695 in there too.
