Did anyone notice the GSW to SWEEP Hou line? -400

[iloseagain]

This was nuts. -400 to sweep the Rockets. I thought itd be like -200 at most. This was insanity. They really dont think Hou will steal one at home? I guess not. GSW is good defensively when they try, and Harden doesnt get his little bullshit ticky tack fouls in the playoffs, so i guess it makes sense. No way I could ever bet that though.

What sportsbook -- I would take the opposite and hedge in game if need be when Houston leads inevitably at some point at home

this weird one we use around these parts..

LOL i should become a pro here -- that is a terrible line LOL

did you have a line on yours? I was shocked when i saw it. I cant imagine that was a normal line. You couldnt bet against it though so your idea wouldnt work... Like you couldnt bet on "houston not to get swept"

I may have worded it wrong. The bet was the 'exact series' bet. It was Warriors win in 4 -400. It wasnt like Warriors sweep -400 and Houston not get swept +250 or something like that. If that were the case, i would have bet on houston to not get swept.

Man the open on five dimes was -120 for sweep - how that becomes -400 after one win and an injury is beyond me

This was before the first game....... Not that this first game would have changed much anyways

Louie Id like to know what you would make the lines before these series: GSW vs. Hou(before GAME 1), GSW vs. SA, GSW vs Clippers and GSW vs. Cavs? TIA.

[louielouie]

At home

Gsw -5 sa
Gsw -8 lac
Gsw -3 cle

On road

Sa -5 gsw
Lac pk gsw
Cle -3 gsw

[iloseagain]

^^^ you really think GSW would be less of a fav over cle than SA lol??? Oh man

GSW -3 @ home vs Cle They might be -3 @ Cle

[louielouie]

They were plus three in Cleveland this year once already

[louielouie]

And by the time the cavs make the finals they are going to be looking very capable and very good and they will upset anyone they meet there

[iloseagain]

man i got nothing against you but it must suck to be a cleveland fan.. your homerism is outstanding

[SpreadSniper]

Spurs 4 - 0 was -300 before the series started i think

[iloseagain]

Spurs 4 - 0 was -300 before the series started i think

i could see that considering they are fukkin 19 point favs haha.. But GS is only -13 at home and maybe -7 or 8 on the road.. -400 seems wrong

[WildCelticsFan]

Before series started got:

Warriors 4-0 -110
Spurs 4-0 -117

[McDabs]

I got Spurs sweep -135

[CJ]

Spurs 4 - 0 was -300 before the series started i think

Ya, that's what I saw too. Not sure where anyone got anything close to even juice.

[iloseagain]

yea doesnt make sense considering they were like -10000 yesterday and are even bigger favs today.

[iloseagain]

theres is no way if you parlayed the ML for all 4 spurs games that you would get anywhere near even money

[jtoler]

At home

Gsw -5 sa
Gsw -8 lac
Gsw -3 cle

On road

Sa -5 gsw
Lac pk gsw
Cle -3 gsw

I meant series prices. We were talking about series prices, didnt mean game lines but what price for each of those series would you make each.

[louielouie]

gsw -400 lac
gsw -175 san
gsw -145 cle

[iloseagain]

gsw -400 lac
gsw -175 san
gsw -145 cle

How many bet points can i bet you that GS would be bigger favs over Cle than SA?

[jtoler]

gsw -400 lac
gsw -175 san
gsw -145 cle

That -145 might be a little low when you compare it to SA's -175. Thanks for your input Louie. Good luck this playoffs

[louielouie]

iloseagain I'm not a pro so I'm not sure but I think if indeed we get that match-up you will be once again looking at a team that pushed the already injured Warriors to 6 last year but with their 2nd and 3rd best players on bard and a new coach this year -- the books will set the line low to bait Warriors backers (and the line will match what it was at open of playoffs) because they already know this year's script

CAVS WILL WIN IT ALL

[iloseagain]

i just feel like all 3 of them on the court at the same time is not a good mix.. they barely beat detroit in game 1...

[louielouie]

I will take all the heat and hate if they don't but I see a team gelling better every day just playing rope-a-dope with the rest of the league -- I see a team that is a lock for the finals because there is not a team that can beat them 4 times in 7 games -- and I see some competition in the west but I see the NBA influence in the King's favor once he get there finally getting the hump off of his back and solidifying him as the GOAT -- call me a homer a nut licker whatever -- everyone going to be calling me moneybags at year's end -- after one game their odds are down to +400 after opening at +530 -- don't see it getting better than that -- let's see and best of luck to you

[iloseagain]

i just dont think hes the GOAT if he wins 3... Im not a lebron hater by any means either.. I actually like lebron.. But im also not gonna get into a convo about who is the GOAT cuz i just dont care, but i know lebron isnt
