wangichu:

Thanks for calling me out.....every now and then we all need a talkin to! Hopefully this game is just played by the players tonight. I have watched in person every game in Denver and then watched them again on TV so I might be biased since I'm a Denver boy. Anyway....off to Brooklyns to get my drink on with the lady and then it's off to the Nuggets game! My final plays tonight are as follows and for sure....good luck to all tonight.......Let's kill the books here and then go ALL IN ON CAVS ML tomorrow! Keep in mind...the NUGGETS RUN RUN RUN at home and play Black Mamba ball in LA........Altitude is the key in the fourth quarter and YES...the Refs will let them play tonight!

Nuggets -5.5
Nuggets OVER 209

Both (2x)........instant replay of game #4..............Final score: Nuggets 113 Lakeshow 104

[wangichu]

Agreed but it will be a tight line. So teasing Denver with Orlando tomorrow. I am sick of losing in the last 2 minutes of these games do to the fix. If Orlando can just get a somewhat fair game form the refs they will get it done tomorrow.

yeah, i can't get over that spread either. I actually teased it too, but i can't roll on orlando with you. That spread is getting dropped lower and lower each time, and with game 6 at a pickem, i have to take tease the points and go with DEN -1.5 and CLE +6. Orlando may win, but it'll be a squeaker again. Either way, as i've said, having orlando at +500 in this series, i feel pretty good about that game either way. I kinda think cleveland will steal game 6 and orlando will squeak out in game 7, but there's a reason that the books are getting more and more stingy with offering cleveland points in orlando. Almost reminds me of the boston orlando series when orlando kept getting fewer and fewer points in boston, all the way up to game 7 where they got +1 at opening, and ultimately cashed my ticket.

Game 6: cavs +2 (5x)

I like it alot!

[HoulihansTX]

Great call CK, Great fcuking call. Denver gave a b-team effort, and thought that the crowd would help them skate. On to tomorrow

[HoulihansTX]

Game 6: cavs +2 (5x)

IF the call is the CAVS, then the Under is the best bet. For the Cavs the only thing that travels for them is their defense. 193Under

[HoulihansTX]

This is sickening. All's I can hit are my total plays. I'll supply the totals as long as yall tell me who is going to win. Fcuking got a push on my money flow for the day, even baseball. Damn I wanted to go out for some top notch sushi.

[HoulihansTX]

Game 6: cavs +2 (5x)

Did your initial Orl play seem to easy? What made you change, b/c I'm tailing you, bro. I have no read on the side plays lately.

[cs11787]

Hey Houlihans Im in Dallas for the weekend to play in a basketball tournament and I had some BOMB sushi down here. Wish we both couldve won and had a good meal. Lol. Im on Cleveland also but Im taking the ML pretty heavy.
Cle ML +120 Heavy

[cocknocker]

Cavs +120 moneyline Game 6 (F*ck the points)

[HoulihansTX]

Hey Houlihans Im in Dallas for the weekend to play in a basketball tournament and I had some BOMB sushi down here. Wish we both couldve won and had a good meal. Lol. Im on Cleveland also but Im taking the ML pretty heavy.
Cle ML +120 Heavy

Oh shit you must be in Downtown Dallas, or Plano if you're getting that BOMB sushi. I'm tailing yall hard on the ML. The Bookies have finally got a hold of the TOTALS for this series though. I call UNDER, but its a tuff call.

[The_Kid]

If Cleveland wins Game 6, they're taking the series. Mark it down.

[cs11787]

Glad to see were on the same side here CK. We were also on the same side with LAL tonight so congrats to us! Oh and fellas, cant forget about Cle +anything 1Q. Theyve been dominating ATS in the 1Q covering 4 out of the 5 games so far this series averaging a win of 12.25 points in those 4 games.
Cle ML +120
added
1Q Cle ML (not out yet but Im guessing will be around +100)

[cs11787]

Ya Im stayin in downtown Dallas and the sushi is phenominal!!! As for the total, Im also leanin under but will prolly stay away from it cuz I think Ill win with Cleveland.

[cs11787]

If Cleveland wins Game 6, they're taking the series. Mark it down.

Youre absolutely right. I took Cleveland when they were down 3-1 at +200 for some change. I am gonna ride Cleveland out for the rest of the series and win that series bet and all the game bets. Lol. GL.

[BigMoneyMan]

BIG props to the Laker fans in the house. They know they want nothing of the boys, classy move If it happens and your coming to town you PM me and I will set you up.

DEX You and ck cannot jinks me tomorrow. If the refs don't give us a game THe BIg man is going to the pokey. I'm close enough and fast enough security won't get me until I bitch slap a zebra or two. I''ll be the one in the blue and white ignite t shirt and fast as hell.

[wangichu]

Did your initial Orl play seem to easy? What made you change, b/c I'm tailing you, bro. I have no read on the side plays lately.

the play in this one comes from the line positioning. When the spreads so a progression such that it makes them harder to play, it is indication that the books know that this team will likely win a particular game. A lot of the public believes that the magic have clearly proven to be the better team having comeback from cleveland's "best shot" when they run off a 20 point lead, and every game the magic come back. But what a lot of people haven't seen is cleveland's growth in this series. I just realized recently that the reason the lakers were so dominant in game 6 is because they progressively grew and learned how to play this denver team and ultimately capitolize on their matchups. (I've always thought delonte and varajao carry their acts on the road well too.) The cavs came out slow and struggled late in their first orlando game. Second time they came out faster and won the first two quarters, leading late and just couldn't quite close the game out, going OT and losing. Game 5 we saw cleveland open up quick again, withstand the requisite comeback and ultimately assert dominance, pushing away late and closing in a dominant 4th quarter. This team is playoff tested and has played a lot of games over the last few years, and a lot of BIG games at that. They took an awesome celtic team to 7 games, something last year's seasoned detroit team couldn't do.

Magic also have this feel of collapsability. The whole master of panic moniker and the way the team does let themselves get into trouble late and put their hopes on a timely 3.

The pattern i'm seeing develop is that lebron attacks dwight howard, forcing fouls and soon tenative (scared to foul) plays, and only because he is lebron, he can take a hit from howard and follow through giving a few "and 1's".

I'm repeatedly kicking myself for fading my own team at their finest hour so i'm going extra heavy on this game. I want more than just my money back and i believe the spread.


CLE +4.5 (bought up) and ML

i wish i could be witness. (f*** night/weekend jobs)

CLE +4.5 (bought up) and ML

Wrong Magic will prevail.

[BigMoneyMan]

with a little ref equal in Otown.

[SexyMit]

I'm on Cavs as well, even before I read what CK and Wang have! GL tonight guys, buckle your seat belts and enjoy the ride. SHould be a good game!

[SlicWilly3]

I was leaning Orlando tonight.......But I also like the Nuggets last night

Congrats CK and Co on the Lakers last night.....Wish I has listened to you guys....

Well, I guess I'm riding the Cavs train tonight.....You guys know ur NBA much better then myself....

Cavs ML +115 (ck's pick)

[cocknocker]

The moneyline for Cleveland is shrinking, which means beyond any shadow of doubt that they are the play, BIG. Have a nice time at the game. The Cavs are playoff vets, and Orlando, well...they're just like Denver. Godd maybe great, but not in the same league with Cleveland

[Psylence]

Hope you guys didn't put too much on cleveland just found out this inside info.

The Orlando Magic are sticking with their undefeated lineup, one that features a 7-year-old girl.
Orlando is 4-0 in the playoffs when little Gina Marie Incandela sings the national anthem

[sweetjones55]

Everyone is doubting whether LeBron James can have 3 good games in a row when he is perfectly capable of doing this. He is the best player on the planet. Orlando doesn't have one guy on their team that can even maintain him. Even their presence inside with Howard when LeBron blows by Lewis or Hedo means absolutely nothing. Cleveland ran the same exact play for the whole 4th quarter (I have never seen this before) with LeBron at the top of the free throw line and the Magic didn't come up with one answer. Mo Williams and Delonte West are starting to hit their stride and with all the open looks they will be getting tonight I can't see Orlando winning.

Cavaliers +2 (I've seen too many game winners and 1 point wins lately)

[BL]

Yeah! After beeing on Lakers yesterday i am rolling with the Cavs tonight !!!
