I'll gladly take Evan Turner and Indy +9 if George sits:
Paul George (concussion) will be a game-time call for Saturday's Game 3, according to coach Frank Vogel.
"We're hopeful that he'll be able to play but he has not cleared all of the protocol," Vogel said. The Pacers were lucky to have a few days off since George is still not taking contact as of Friday afternoon. There hasn't been anything specific as to what George is doing outside of taking shots -- such as riding a stationary bike, agility drills or jogging -- so it's tough to gauge how far along he is. Still, most information suggests he'll be ready to play on Saturday.

======================================== =================
May switch to OKC if Ibaka is cleared to play decent minutes:
Serge Ibaka (calf) has "rapidly progressed" and the Thunder have changed his status to day-to-day, according to Yahoo! Sports.
The report adds there's a chance Ibaka can play in Game 3 on Sunday. He is walking and doing some light basketball drills thanks to unexpected reduction in his calf. Ibaka ruled himself out for the series vs. the Spurs on May 21, so this situation has been a mess. The Thunder were quiet regarding Ibaka's status at the time of the injury and not much else is clear outside of his diagnosis of Grade 2 calf strain. Meanwhile, some of the Spurs were expecting Ibaka to play in this series. Ibaka's team is down 0-2 after getting destroyed on defense in each game, so they need him back in a big way.

Paul George has been cleared and will play in gm3.
I think Ibaka plays too. I don't see why OKC would bring this news up and then not play him. How healthy and effective will he be? Not sure.Comment -
who do you guys like this weekend?
im taking indy as well for 3u...Comment -
If he's healthy, he will make a difference. Ibaka at 50% is better than Collison or Perkins.
I'm curious to see what adjustments Brooks makes. Why is Sefelosha playing, let alone starting? The guy is washed up and offers nothing. He used to be an elite defender, which made up for his lack of offense. Now he just sucks on both ends of the court. I think Brooks needs to bench him and start either Lamb, Butler or Reggie Jackson. OKC is literally playing 2 on 5 when they put the starters out there (KD, Westy, Collison, Perk and Sefelosha).
I think we will see a lot more of Lamb this series. I never understood why he got benched midway through season. He was emerging as OKC's firepower off the bench.Comment -
Tomorrow's game is tough. Might watch the line movement and make a small play. Gun to my head, I think Miami wins both games. One will be a blowout, one will be close. Not really sure which one though right now.
Kind of like OKC in gm3, but like you said earlier in this thread, you probably better off taking SA every game. I think the fact that they opened as 2.5 faves is very telling. Just play SA, 1Q, 1H, team total over and you'll make a killing. I'm really high on SA this year, I think they win it all.
I took your Yankees baseball play today.Comment -
if indiana loses but covers this game, its drop the hammer time pacers game 4 ats with a ML unit on top...Comment -
kinda shocked indy is in this position...
although i didnt go very heavy, i was extremely confident they would cover...
still a shot, but we all know the 4th qtr is james time...
plus indy has the look of being ready to hit the mat....Comment -
what a fukin disgrace...
after every heat bucket they look at each other shaking their head, and 0 energy...
this kinda shit is on vogel...Comment -
indiana is the play again game 4 to me - i would like to make money on these 2 games, so will likely go a little bigger.Comment -
I think I might lay off OKC game 3.
If Ibaka returns, there is no way that he was holding the team together before.
Spurs will play that old man ball all the way to the end.Comment -
This doesnt sound encouraging....if he were a scorer, i would say this is a bad thing - but can he help the interior defense tonight is the question...
Serge Ibaka (calf) said if he plays on Sunday it will be painful.
When asked if he's worried about an aggravation, he said, "I'm a tough guy." He still hasn't done any running yet and is just doing some spot shooting. Ibaka will be wearing a compression sleeve once he's able to play, but it's overwhelmingly obvious that he's nowhere near 100 percent. The question for Scott Brooks is: Is an unhealthy Ibaka better than what he currently has?

I love the spurs but the line tonight is fishy to me. I have the line at a pk, with the spurs getting 2.5 it seems like the books are confident in taking most of the action on the spurs and OKC getting a win tonightComment -
Going for the middle?Comment -
i think the books were trying to induce betting on OKC becuz they know we should be taking the spurs. if you think about it. seems like reverse psychology to me. spurs win this one and sweep.Comment -
All the more reason for me to not touch tonight.Comment -
i guess ibaka is feeling better...Comment -
Glad I didn't touch this one. I def would've laid on SA.
were you able to hedge a little?Last edited by Ebumdude; 05-25-14, 11:04 PM.Comment -
I'm not so sure about the series going 7 buddy. A lot of people here at SBR are underestimating Pop`s power to adjust.
If Brooks throws that small lineup in the next game with Lamb he's gonna have an answer.Comment
