Today: 0-2, -2.06x
Total: 251-304-9, +24.7x

Probably unloading on Miami in game 6. Big couple of days coming up between the Spurs tomorrow and Miami the next day.

I feel the same way about these games. Not sure if spread or ML but really liking both home teams. OKC has burned me a lot and may do it again though.

**t-wizzle** · 05-28-14, 10:31 PM

Agree on Spurs game 5 bro.

**Pauulzcappin** · 05-28-14, 10:58 PM

You going for the ML, seto?

on miami or spurs?

it may be an idea to do an ml parlay on both even though i'm really against that shit.

likely just taking both spreads. i think miami wins by 20+ so likely some alt spreads there.

fukking -4 is a risky line

would hate to lose on a game winner or something but then again it would have been a bad bet.

-4 is still safe in terms of spreads when backing a team you are confident it to win su. 4.5 becomes a different story.

Considering betting both unders on the Durant and Westbrook total points. 31.5 and 26.5 respectively. Any thoughts on these prop plays?

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 05-29-14, 06:56 AM

Agree with the spurs play. Not once have we seen the full zig zag concept in any conference. I expect the west's two best teams to blow each other out at home until game 7.

I played them both to go over in game 2 and they laid an absolute egg... Not sure here. They both have to have monster games for OKC to win, that's the only thing I really think there...

**Seto** · 05-29-14, 11:58 AM

Hate that I missed 6 and 6.5 on miami. Undecided whether to lock in at 7 or wait a bit for 6.5's to reappear.

**Seto** · 05-29-14, 12:12 PM

Spurs-3 -110 (pinnacle) (first half) (risking 2.2x to win 2x)

I'd be surprised if you could get that line again. It could go to 7.5.

Maybe just for a few minutes at one point, or one book goes there. I wouldn't be surprised if it closed at 7.5 yeah.

don't necessarily expect a 20+ pt blowout but i think the spurs win by 12 or so relatively handily. agreed game 7 might be tough for the spurs. if everything goes according to plan tonight i may take okc series.

We may not see a close game in the SA/OKC series until gm7.

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 05-29-14, 05:28 PM

Haha I consider 12 a blowout when a sh1t team isn't involved. But yeah BOL fellow degens let's hope these old farts came to play

Well I guess it all depends how it gets to 12. Like games 3 and 4 of the series were only 9 and 13 point wins when in reality they were blowouts whereas a game like heat/nets game 2 was a 12 point win that was anything but a blowout.

gl as well. hopefully everything goes well the next few days.

**Seto** · 05-29-14, 09:09 PM

Cash a first half play for once.

I fukking hate that teams I fade always hit those 29-foot buzzer beaters, it never fukking fails.

Still in decent enough shape...

**t-wizzle** · 05-29-14, 09:12 PM

What's gonna happen second half here? Does OKC hang in this and claw back to make it a tight finish or do the Spurs pick up where they left off?

I don't think the Spurs will blow them away but I think they keep them at bay just about enough that okc doesn't get closer than 6 or 7 on any run, and lose by about 12-15.

Of course I'd like them to end this ASAP because I'm not sure execution wins over KD/Russ in a close game. I said before the series I liked okc to win the close games (of course there hasn't been one yet).

I could just as easily see Thunder pulling ahead quickly as I could see Spurs stretching it to around 20. That's the way these two teams go with the up-tempo styles and all the threes.

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 05-29-14, 09:24 PM

Kicking myself for not take the spread, and only taking the ML...

**Seto** · 05-29-14, 09:32 PM

Fukk Perkins has 4 fouls. OKC could make a run here lol.

But dude... HE BRINGS LEADERSHIP!

**Seto** · 05-29-14, 09:50 PM

Are the Spurs building the lead too early? This feels like game 2 in 2012 when the Spurs went up huge in the 3rd and I remember sweating Spurs spread like crazy in the 4th when okc stormed back. Hopefully no repeat of that and instead one of game 2 this year.

I don't think so. OKC is not getting good shots. Things would need to drastically change in the scope of this game. It's all about which team is getting the good looks and the Spurs are getting far and away the better looks here.

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 05-29-14, 09:57 PM

Err no this game is over. Did you guys not pound spurs 2h?

There are traps that are questionable and there are traps that are unarguably a trap....

I think you'll be okay here. OKC is already thinking about gm6 and their comfy beds back in OKC.

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 05-29-14, 09:58 PM

OKC -1 rofl....

Hopefully. You guys all think OKC runs away with game 6? Curious to see the line, the books can't possibly put out another -2.5, likely -4 or so.

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 05-29-14, 10:01 PM

That's a shame man. Lol. It don't really make sense but I have way more confidence in this spurs 2h bet than I did when I hit the ML pregame though it's 11 points more rofl

This is going 7. Don't see a road team winning in this series. Thinking somewhere around OKC -3/-3.5. Might just play the ML if it's in the -160 range.

**Seto** · 05-29-14, 10:14 PM

Shame I didn't take alt spreads. smh.

Of course now when I take them on Miami tomorrow they will lose.
