    wish I hadn't had celts +5.5 x1 first half, but am super glad i'm getting bailed out be celtics +10 x 2 full game. Just keep them off the three point line and we will be alright.

    Classic TNT game, heavily bet favorite takes big lead and the lightly bet dog cashes in the end. It becomes more obvious every year I watch these clowns that it's more than about two teams playing hoops, it's about TV ratings, sportscenter, vegas, and teams playing to cover point spreads.

    Generally I agree, but this was not like a "10 point lets see if they can comeback" lead. This was a "lets see if there is a rerun of seinfeld on" after the 2nd quarter.

    This game is obviously fixed. Refs let Orlando go up big so they can get the juicy Celts+3000 ML live bet.....

    I'm seriously surprised no one has said this yet

    Pretty sweet when your team is down 27 points and ends up winning by 8.

    Agreed. Everyone that had Boston, including myself, felt great when we were down 27.

    Boston was definitely the right side here.

    These scripts or games are so unbelieveable, even while watching with my own eyes I don't believe what I'm seeing, perhaps it is real. If reality is stranger than fiction, than the NBA is the poster child for reality. Otherwise, if nothing else, the officiating of these games is wretched. I propose putting 6 refs along the rectangle, so 3 guys don't have to move/rotate.

    Man, tonight was just a classic Van Gundy. One for the archives. Orlando had no reason not to win this game by 30, and stand up to Boston. It's quite perplexing. Anyway, I'd just like to keep winning, and keep enjoying. Had to do it the hard way with this one, but I'll take 'em anyway I can cash 'em

    Not sure if bookies expected Boston to win that game but Boston +10 was definitely a double trap. On the outside, it looked too easy to pick since they pwned Orlando a few days ago. Peeps therefore were split into two camps: those that thought Boston would win outright and those that thought it would be a 'trap' for the public and be a blowout revenge game for Orlando. And here is the problem: the Orlando money line has little to no value and the Orlando point spread is so damn big. Unless you were a Boston backer, you therefore got played into betting a game where, all factors taken into consideration, was very low value.
