    Blanco's Playoff Plays

    I'm starting this a little late but I'm going to be making a decent number of plays so it'll be nice to keep track and not make a million threads. I'm going to include the plays I already made today- my 2 Ws I created separate threads for anyways:

    I have not booked Utah for tomorrow yet. Debating how I want to play them (FG 1H ect). Spurs will not be winning games by the type of margins they have been in the regular season and I want to take advantage of this before any adjustments are made to the lines.

    Leaning on all the dogs tomorrow. Haven't decided which ones to pull the triggers on yet, though.

    Jazz +10.5
    Simply too many points. The Jazz have nothing to lose and will come out fighting.

    Nuggets +4.5
    My only concern here is obviously the Lakers home court referee advantage, especially come playoff time. Will most likely pass, but in a fairly officiated game I love the Nuggets getting 4.5. Hard to believe Stern lets the Lakers lose round 1, especially to a team like Denver, so it will be important the Lakers win game 1.

    Celtics +1.5
    The Celtics are a veteran team and know how important winning the first game of the series is.

    As well:

    The Celtics didn’t have to go all-out to get home-court advantage, either. The Hawks opened the door with that ugly home loss to the Raptors. Doc just shrugged.
    “I’m taking rest and rhythm over home court,” he said over and over.
    The unstated implication, of course, is that the Celtics don’t think they need home-court advantage beat the Hawks.

    Clippers +5.5
    Everyone keeps talking about how dangerous Memphis is in the playoffs, but I like them more as an upset team getting +whatever. They didn't do a whole lot for me in the regular season so I will fade until they prove some worth. These games will be played close. You better believe Chris Paul will keep them in these games. 5.5 is too much.

    BOOK BULLS -5.5 NOW for 4/30.

    OFFICIAL PLAY: Bulls -5.5, 2.2 to win 2.

    I know the Bulls better than most and I have a fantastic record picking their games this season. They are going to be giving 300% without Rose, especially the first game, to make a statement. The rest of the team will have enough confidence against a team like Philly and Philly won't bring what it takes. If it were someone else, it would be a different story. Bulls win by 8-12 again.

    Like the dogs except Jazz. Spurs remember last year's embarrassment too well, game 1 loss especially. This is just about their last real shot at a run and they cant let another 8th seed sneek up on them

    We have opposite plays (Sas, and Atlanta)! Leaning on LA also because of the size advantage down low. Leaning also to Memphis cause LAC isn't playing at a high level lately. But will study this game more later! Good luck to us tomorrow, pal!

    Either is Memphis but I don't think it means much and we shouldn't put much stock into how teams played the final week or 2 in the meaningless games. Games like LAC @ OKC and MEM @ SAS are more telling of what we can expect from these teams in the playoffs.

    I don't think I'm going to make the Utah play anymore. Can't bring myself to ever bet Lakers giving 4.5 in a game like this but also don't want to fade them because of what I said earlier about the refs. Faried is my man!

    1-1 on the middles.

    6-1 today, 9-3 YTD with all losses being 1u or less.

    OFFICIAL PLAYS:

    ATL 1H -.5 (-105) 1.05u to win 1
    Basically a small hedge. I think if Boston is close at halftime they will close out in the 2H but am a little worried about ATL coming out strong.

    ATL/BOS under 179.5 (-110). 2.2u to win 2

    Well ATL started hot....a little too hot for my likings. 1-0 so far on this game but doubt I'll sweep. Would be okay with a push on the under and Celtics +1.5. ATL 90 BOS 89?!

    Looks like the Boston game is going to finish 2-1. 11-4 YTD

    OFFICIAL PLAY: Clippers +1.5 Q1 (-105) 2.1 to win 2

    Probably last play of night, don't have any major lean on the next game and want to see how these guys play each other before I start betting the series. The Clippers are usually pretty reliable for a good Q1 though.

    Upset that the Grizzlies just went on a mini-run because I wanted to pound them 2H. Probably still will as you have to expect the squares to be on LAC

    Wow heat and pacers were up 8 and 10 Q1 respectively and both found a way to push. Pacers push was really frustrating. Up 7 with under a minute left

    I just figured with the amount of 3's they shoot its doable but I might just take the 7 instead.
