Grizzlies don't have the fire power to keep up here. They should hang around and then OKC takes over late.
t-wizzle i think there is little to no reason to drop 5 units before game time unless you don't believe you can get a better number in-game.

Absolutely Seto. First weekend has never been kind to me. Rockets meltdown hurt though.
Paul who says I won't live bet it?

I got torched to start on Toronto but didn't bet the rest of the weekend. So yeah 2 years in a row neither of us do well to start. Was pissed on Sunday though, another typical Mavs meltdown

Online sportsbooks offer us so many options and many times lines that are better than Vegas.
Utilize the live betting.
Hell, last week in vegas I was getting better online odds on baseball than I was at the Mirage.

Strongly disagree with your pick guys ... This game will bring out the biggest gap in terms of motivation and effort in the series.

Memphis is not that good, OKC is just too good and too quick for them. That let-up in game 1 is key because you know that won't happen again. Plus which I think OKC is out to destroy the Grizzlies after last year.
Memphis had to grind every game down the stretch to get in, now just 2 days between game 1 and game 2 where they gave a monster effort to try and get back into game 1, I'm not sure how much they have left in the tank.
Plus which it's not like it would be surprising to see a team of OKC's caliber win both home games easily. It's too "wannabe sharp" to take Memphis here.
Final point: jjgold has made like 2 or 3 threads endorsing Memphis in the last few days. lmao.

I love your analysis of running out of gas I completely agree and wouldn't be surprised if they got swept.
Memphis is not a good team this year I get it. None the less though you are hoping for a blowout this game similar to game 1. Definitely could happen with some dagger 3s from OKC late game but Memphis has shown good energy with its shit roster and won't give up no matter how much they are down. Yesterday's game will be a confidence booster for them. Then pretty much you are counting on okc to give 48 minutes of hard out effort while they are 1-0.

Thinkng about player props on Blake. He should bounce back from that bizarre game 1 with all the fouls and shit.
Only concern is the game could get out of hand. Would like to find a book that has player props for the 1st half?

JR....what books does pregame use for their public data? i show memphis at 60% which would support your zig zag square comment but a friend of mine who pays for Sports Insights has OKC around 55%

asked that a few times over there Tom, no response, sports insights tried a few years back to get some numbers from the books regarding their volume ie( bet amounts) rather than number of bets....nothing, they would not give it out, not sure I trust vegasinsider or scores and odds,....you know on second thought , someone mentioned on one of the website's that it might come from the paid site' sports options"

VI and Pregame seem to sometimes match up and VI uses one square book.

Isn't Durant sick of getting dominated by (6'4) Tony Allen year after year? It's getting embarrassing.

Allen plays great D on him but eventually Durant will get hot. Not necessarily saying this game but there will be times in this series when Durant just takes over. Great defense can only go so far - eventually a great offensive player is going to go off.
I hate to make a big play early in the playoffs but I am so tempted to take Thunder 2H large.

Thunder 2H -6 -102 (10x)
Like I said earlier, I really believe Thunder will take over this game late. Personally I like the Grizz but they are just no match for teams like this at the end of games. Their offense will tighten up. If Memphis tries to run through Randolph in crucial possessions at the end, it won't work. They can hang in there if they play a two man game between Gasol and Conley but either way I see Thunder taking over late here.
I still feel that the original number should hit.

I like it. I wasn't home so I missed most of the first half. Game looks to be going just as I thought it would though. Probably should have bet Memphis 1H but those first half bets have burned me so far.

I don't think so. Thunder made a run in the third and should have extended their lead but they kept messing up in transition. Could have gone up by a few baskets and really put the pressure on Memphis.

Maybe man. But lots of money on OKC tonight and ML got to almost 1.60 live on an one possession game. To a 7 point dog before 2h
