    Fellow degenerates, lets be honest with ourselves. thunder cruise past spurs in 3and4

    game 1, the thunder could've easily won. Manu was playing like the 2005 ginobili. Despite that, the thunder still had a 10 point lead going into the 4th. The thunder just had poor execution down the stretch and let the spurs steal game one. Game 2, lets be honest, the spurs cant play any better than game 2, Yet the thunder cut the lead to 6 with about 3 minutes left in the game. The spurs were clutch from 3 all game and tony parker got pretty damn lucky to be so hot with his jumper. I expect tony to get his points but more with drives and the floater, not with his jump shot. He's playing right into the thunders hands if he continues taking that many jumpers the rest of the series. yeah, his jumper has gotten better but it's still tony parker shooting a jumper. Meaning, 60% chance he misses. I just dont see the spurs playing like this in okc home. series will be tied for game 5.

    The Thunder were lucky to ever be in game 1. SA has 14 to's in the 1h alone. That shit wont happen again.

    Look, the Thunder are lucky to win 1 game at home. SA is winning because they are the better team with a better coach. OKC was better than Dallas amd LA and OKC won those series. Now, SA is the better team. Just the way it is, mate.

    Not sure if they win both but I am fairly certain they take 1 of the next 2.

    Hardin, Westbrook, and Durant are going to have to average 75 points/game collectively to win this series. Not going to happen. Spurs in 5.

    This line jumped from -3 to -4!...Everbody and the public is hammering OKC!...I'm not too sure about this...I wouldn't touch this game...Seems like the classic "trap" game and/or "sucker" bet....As red hot as the Spurs have been, and Vegas is giving you 4 pts?!...It's almost like they are practically begging you to take SA and the points!...Nope, I'll just stick to baseball!...

    Thunder might win but I'm not laying 4 and the ML is too expensive. Spurs spread still might be the play.

    Tonight is OKC best chance of squeaking out a win. Them winning 2 in a row is hilarious, are we watching the same series? Odds would say OKC wins at least 1 of 2 and then loses the series in 5. The Spurs mean business and it's going to be tough to beat this team if you haven't figured that out yet.

    I've always had the feeling vegas knows the outcome of games before they're played. If the line was even, or -1 I would be worried the spurs would win. The line going up in my opinion is just trying to get you off the team thats gonna cover in THIS SCENARIO. I know the post was for someone else, just stating my opinion that the line is not bait.

    Afraid to bet against the Spurs as they rarely lose

    Okl St loses tonight season a major failure and Durant gets a red mark on his early career

    I'm a Spurs fan and i don't see any red mark on Durant for losing to an obviously superior team. If they were losing to a

    weaker team or if throughout Durant's career he can't get it done then yes. He's also playing a hell of a series and his coach isn't doing him any favors.

    I think parker had an incredibly great shooting night and the spurs were on fire yet they were up 6 with a few min left.

    Spurs are a team.

    OKC is durant and westbrook.

    Very simple.

    All the thunder have to do is not guard tim duncan. I dont get the defense they're playing. Everything is created off duncan and parker, double parker and make him give up the ball to duncan on the pick and pop. Lay off duncan, and bait him into taking those 16 feet jumpers all game. Same thing with parker, play way off him and make him become a jump shooter where he cant drive and create for all the other pop and spot shooters. Make an old tim duncan beat you, instead of the spurs. That being said, I want spurs to win the series. Much better shot at beating the heat.

    The line moving up is either a relection of the public being on OKC or the books betting on SA. I dont know which it is but it cant be both you goofs.

    This is at least a 6 game series, OKC wins tonite and covers by 6-7 pts. Spurs end streak and believe it or not its all about revenue! Both cities need long series, Okc is the correct play. Vegas trying to con you into those points people.

    you will be able to tell early who is going to win. maybe be best for a live bet.

    it all depends on if perkins is on the bench or not. if he is playing, spurs are the play.

    Yeah live bet scenario seems much safer. At least we can get a good feel of how OKC is gonna try and contain parker. He just went off in game 2.

    Surprising to me that people would think Spurs would sweep. Thunder are a great team at home, and Spurs are not as dominant on the road.
