I made thread saying they wouldn't cover against Memphis and might lost outright at home. They lost at home.
I told PR9 they wouldn't cover in Miami Wednesday. They lost by 5.
Do I really need to hyperlink to all of this? Just look at my post history.
Even though I predicted 5 out of their last 6 games correctly and many more before that, people still jumped my ass for being wrong about the Lakers game. I love how when I'm right, no one posts in my thread but the one time I'm wrong, people come out of the wood work. It's pretty funny. I'm just trying to help with my opinion of a team I follow closely. I never said anything was a lock. You don't have to take my advice.
I think they cover tomorrow. They have lost two straight and this is an important game for them.
They should be rested and the players have talked a lot the past few days about needing to finish out the regular season strong to maintain the #1 seed. They are aware that it will be a lot harder road to the finals if the Spurs are the number 1 seed.
My best friend and former college roommate works within the Thunder organization. That's where I get a lot of info regarding what the players are saying and how practices are going. He also has really good injury information that he shares.
I'm sure a lot of people probably won't believe that but whatever. Take my advice or leave it. It's been pretty good so far.
