CK's Playoff tips for Boston/Chicago Game 7

[cocknocker]

My trip to Mexico got cancelled due to Swine Flu epidemic. So here's a few dos and don'ts about this game.

Rule#1 Thou shalt not go against the Celtics and their referees at home. 35 free throws at the least for the Gang Green. That's got to be worth 2 baskets alone.

Rule#2 Thou shalt not take the over in game 7. It has a RLM on it and it is a bad bet.

Picks

Celtics-3.5 (3 point buy)
Cletics/Bulls under 196

[corona]

i love under 98 first half points.
the overtimes in this series scare me away from betting the whole game.

[cnleaf]

Celtics-3.5 with 3 pts buy??? This series had 5 games which were decided by 3 pts or less. I dont think this is a sound bet. If it is lower than 3pts, I will think about it. Right now NO play for me. Too close to call. I may just end up with la hook loss or something. I dont wanna lose like that.

[The_Kid]

It's going to be a Celtics blowout or a really close game. There will be nothing in between.

[DeeWizzle]

6 OT's.

[cocknocker]

Lots of free throws, CN. Because of that I think that Boston will pick up the win by 4. If the game doesn't go to overtime the under will FINALLY hit. I do think that Boston will blow them out though. I just like insurances

Does this mean you are going to be around and posting on a daily basis?

God bless the swine flu.

I like the under though. I dont think anyone in both teams have enough energy to score that much or go to overtime again after those historically many OTs. Bos is a displined team,i trust that. But Chi is really showing their energy in this series. I would rather wait for the next round to put money on Orl if Bos past this Chi.

[wangichu]

as much as i wanted to see the bulls do it before my money was invested in this game, I have to roll with the celtics. They are the team that has seen 2 game 7s last year and shows up in the big game. They are the only team to run away with a game and have yet to cover a spread at home. The spread has dropped 2 points lower than it started out because of how close the last 3 matchups in boston were. Well now it's game 7 and i just don't trust that youth going into the garden. I think that the bulls will clam up late and as the magic fades, the veteran celtic team will handle their business. Worst case scenario the referees could sway that spread. Bulls are getting played a lot heavier in this game than in before and as such the books are comfortable lowering the spread to make some people think it's positive movement. Make no mistake about it, game 7 will have a different feel to it.

BOS -6 (thinking about watching that ML... if too many people fall in love with the bulls ML i may get that for cheap)
also think the under CHI team total under 95.5 looks good. May just parlay it to BOS -6 for a sweetening if the blowout happens.

CK, I have a feeling this game might go to OT again. Instead of the under for the game, what do you think of under for 1st half?

[Romolicious]

I like the C's in a blowout. Game 7's hardly ever live up to their hype. Too much on the line and the young Bulls will fold under pressure. Plus it's hard to beat the C's and their additional 3 friends on the court! Celts in a blowout.

[peeiempee]

I'm gonna have to tease it (parlay buy pts). Celts ML on under 201. BOL

[cocknocker]

The referees will not allow Boston to lose this game. I'm just sayin'!

[ragiche]

I'm just gonna play ck's play (under 195.5).And whoever win this game i'm surely gonna go heavy on orl,whatever the line will may be. With this series going to 7 games plus a total of 7 OT's,and only 2 days of rest,the winners don't have enough time to prepare a game plan to their next opponent.So you do the research.Nuff said . Orl (whatever the line is) Very heavy.

[Bradyd]

Co sign. I personally think the bulls had their celebration after game 6. The Celtics will have theirs tonight

[cocknocker]

Alls that i know is that whoever the f*ck wins this game and the Miami/Atlanta game are autofades in the next round game 1's.

According to our playoff tips sheet, the Hawks are the play in game 7 as they failed to score 75 points. I however am troubled by this matchup as i actually feel that Miami will get it done at this point. Atlanta gets the slight lean at this time however due to the tips. I will snore on it and make up my mind in the morning. Do I defy the system we have in place or do i trust it? My gut feeling is that I will apply the Jimbo42 rule and let the chips fall where they may

[Vreston]

CK if you bought points (which is sth I can't do) for Boston, then maybe I'm right in taking the Bulls +6. Do you thinks I should go through with it?
Thanks.

i dropped the line to -4....thought i was going to be the only one to do this, i agree with you 110% on this....

[cocknocker]

Vreston, I can't see the Celtics and the referees letting the Bulls win this one. Makes more sense to buy the Green Machine down

[NBA Hero]

just a regular play ck?fantastic job on those two heavy plays on the last game of hous and miami blowout.a soothsayer!!!

[SportsTerminator]

Out of all the places you chose Mexico l0l, but I would just take Celtics moneyline.

[SoonerGreg]

Looking for Advise:
I bet the Celtics to win series at -560. Should I bet 1/2 a unit on the Bulls at +240 in this game to minimize the amount at risk or just trust the Mean Green at home and their refs.

I know I can't believe it. I have never had something liek this happen to me when i planned to go on vacation. It's almost as if the rest of the Mafia wanted me to stay home or something..

And oh yes gentlemen. I am only making normal plays on these games. I have a HEAVY play on the Phillies today

[cocknocker]

Trust the refs, Sooner! At the same time a little hedge never hurts to cover your larger wager.

[SoonerGreg]

I think I'm gonna place 1/2 a unit hedge on the Bulls for insurance.

I think Romo and CK have it pegged. Jalin Rose said if the Bulls lose everyone will tell them how great they played if the C's lose everyone will say they collapsed or that can't do it without KG.

Rudy T said it best. " You can never underestimate the heart of a champion." Question, who has the rings here?

C's get it done. Game goes under due to no OT.

[wangichu]

game 7 at the garden...
BOS ML large
CHI team total under 95

(i know the ML is a bit on the juice, but i hedged small with a parlay on CHI ML and CHI team total ov 95. They don't win unless they score that much, but i don't think they will)

[KingKing]

thanks ck, took celts -3.5 (2 pt buy) BOL!

[cocknocker]

It's getting ugly as prescribed! Roll Greenies! The under looks to be on target as well

[melincrea]

Celtics-3.5 (3 point buy)
Cletics/Bulls under 196

-3.5 had me worried a bit when it was only a 5 pt lead.

[cocknocker]

Yessir! I hate that it went over though.....it was like watching the game as a normal citizen

[Dfjay9]

I took it at -4 and it cashed.

Orlando over Boston in game 1.

[cnleaf]

Good call on BOS
