if any port backer was delusional enough to think they still have a chance...
See Portland's best player miss a wide open dunk.

Goodnight....another team that is getting swept.

(1u) Pacers +4

**NBA Maniac** · 05-09-14, 02:55 PM

1st of all, i am really PISSED....

The result of BKN @ Miami doesn't reflect, how close the Nets were the entire game...

Portland what a joke, when a team misses 2 easy lay up's in a row, they can'y win a game... i just shut down the computer, and went to bed...

For today... i wanted to play OKC a few days ago in game 3....

at moment can get OKC(+4.5) and Indiana(+5)....
don't understand why this lines climbing so fast

**Tommy Karate** · 05-09-14, 03:53 PM

Saturday 5.10

(5u) Heat -120

**Tommy Karate** · 05-09-14, 03:55 PM

added another unit to pacers +5.5....im bullish on indy now due to hibbert.

What about D.Williams ?? BKN franchise player 0-9 FG.... ROTFL
and if i am not mistaken, at the end of 1st half, BKN went 0 times to the FT line.....

pathetic performance...
BK will be in the basement very soon in that division unless lopez comes back healthy and they let blathce loss.
that guy is a star in waiting, having his career ruined by these coaches not giving him a chance...

**KRIT** · 05-09-14, 04:53 PM

I've been saying this forever. But DWill is one of the biggest losers in the NBA. He was good in Utah, but hasn't been the same since. I just don't think he cares about winning. He makes Dwight Howard look like Kobe.

A ton of line movement on the Wiz/Pacers game. I think you may be on the right side taking the points. I took Wiz ML last night, but seeing the line move this much I think it could be a close game.

Dick Parsons, the newly appointed interim CEO of the Los Angeles Clippers, said Friday that he intends make coach Doc Rivers a "a full-fledged partner" as he takes command of the franchise while the league determines the fate of owner Donald Sterling, who has been banned for life from the NBA.

Doc Rivers; "HARD" if Shelly Sterling retains Clippers....

TK, third favorite sport or not, you have been more than decent on picks.

nba has been good to me the last few years. Hopefully I can finish strong and beat it again. I've found that trying to beat each sport individually works best for my overall results.
while i love the excitement of the playoff games, i just hate seeing the same teams in the end.
thats why i love football and baseball - a team can go from last to 1st in 1 season....

**Tommy Karate** · 05-10-14, 11:48 AM

Do the nets and blazers ever come out strong?
Feel like both are good 1st qtr bets. Heat 4th qtr if close game.
Thoughts from qtr-half players or anyone?

**unitedlad** · 05-10-14, 12:55 PM

Do you not partake in any live betting. Could be a great strategy for tonights games if you like Nets and Blazers.

I don't have the option to live bet.
I already took Mia and second game I am taking opposite of what hits 1st game. I don't think both road favs cover. My lean is port and mia but I will be on the spurs in a mini chase if mia loses. I'd rather chase with the 2 better teams then bet against them.

Looking at SBR odds. Both ML's are higher for 1Q and 1H than the full game. Maybe they do come out fast?

ML's at pinny:
Nets -101, 1q -114, 1h -115
Blazers -107, 1q -120, 1h -119

I like your thinking for your chase system. May do the same but opposite. Take Brooklyn, if it doesn't hit, double up on Portland. No way are both away favorites covering.

do you look at public %'s at all? the spurs and blazers are about 50/50 right now on the spread per pregame....mia 66%.

i took BK 1st for a unit

Brooooooooklyn.....they been in both games and the final score isn't a gauge on how close these first two games have been and since I don't think we get swept they gotta win here

**GT21Megatron** · 05-10-14, 05:34 PM

Good call on Pacers yesterday Tommy....I hedged halftime.....I can't believe how damn flat and pathetic the Wiz looked....gonna pound them tomorrow

Just because they can't be swept, does it means they can't lose game 3 ?? THAT's WRONG...

see i feel like miami does really want to sweep them. BK swept them in the regular season when it really didnt matter.
i think its motivation for mia to not let up and just end this quick/send a message to the elderly nets. plus, i dont trust jason kidd as a coach to get his players ready for this game...

i also back-tested the last few years playoff scenarios, and its a good spot for road favorites in game 3 when up 2-0.
nothing to do with individual teams, matchups etc....that kind of historical information means little to nothing imo...
but scenarios over the years that repeat themselves is worth paying attention to...i dont think both road favs get it done, but thats just my gut feeling...i will have to hit the spurs if mia loses...

Why did you pay a little extra juice for the ml at-120 instead of the -1 at like -115. Most games aren't decided by one point.

some games do, and its a 5u bet that i really want to win.
i would look for the nearest belt if miami won by 1 and i pushed...

**aznjeff07** · 05-10-14, 07:06 PM

see it at +1 for -115 for miami. f the ml and -1 for same odds lol

**meader99** · 05-10-14, 07:25 PM

I have Portland at a pick em now. If they go to being the fav, its unload time on rip city, correct?
