Boston Celtics vs. Cleveland Cavaliers TNT 7:30

[williams22]

Take Cleveland first quarter -1.5. This game is too hard to game for the full game.

I also like Paul Pierce over 18.5 points as a prop bet as Ray Allen generally gets shut down by the Cavs so Pierce must step up.

I hope everyone tailed me on this! Cashed it for 2 units.

Mo tried to dunk that!

Any 7 footer guarding a point guard will get burned......KG is FINE!

[lawsofpower48]

back online..sorry the game went down, but its back!

[jasont]

Why would anyone think a game is over after 1 quarter, especially when the Cavs don't have a bench and they're facing the Celtics.

[Jimmy0607]

Cavs slowed down

[Jimmy0607]

Tied game

[jasont]

Feel bad for LBJ...he'll have to play 45 min tonight. Since when did Varejao turn into Kevin McHale?

[williams22]

Mike Brown's offense holds this team back. He needs to get a new offensive specialist on his bench.

[TonyP]

I have the Celtics +5 for the game

[Mac4Lyfe]

This game is early. Cleveland will go back on a roll in a minute to end the half.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Shaqtastic...

[williams22]

All this talk about whether Shaq will hurt or help the Cavs is absurd. He's a 17-year veteran who has been an all-star for most of those years, of course he will help. He looks like he's in good shape too.

My satellite just went out, anyone got a link for online?

[SportsTerminator]

It's pretty quiet here lol. Where are the Cavs backers. I knew I should took Celtics +12.5 -360 duh

[Mac4Lyfe]

Cleveland 1st half is dead.... Dammit.

Yup, that's why I went 1Q. You gotta move to a book that has 1Q lines if you are going to bet a lot of NBA. 5Dimes works well for me.

[Chi_archie]

1q is alot harder to predict than halves or games IMO

Depends on the team. The Lakers and Cavs get off to fast starts often at home. Not to mention I much rather take the Cavs -1.5 or -2 for the first quarter than -5 to -10 for the entire game sometimes.

Looking good so far (got the Celtics). Glad to see Cavs bench continue their preseason form. Worried a little about the under bet since Cavs starters will probably play a lot of minutes in the second half. Gotta love new replay rules now with them removing points and helping us

Thoughts on the second half total of 90.5 anyone?

I'd lean over 90, as the game really slowed down after the first 6 minutes or so and they still put up 96. Just my opinion.

Yeah I hear ya.

[Turob]

Keep in mind Celtics are shooting 7-9 from three and fg% is high for both teams which is also unexpected. Also ppl get tired and accuracy drops. I'm hoping for under

P.S.: Appologies I rechecked and Cavs shooting is off. Not by much in regards to what Celtics keep other teams to.

Turn to Dallas this game is OVA.... The Cavs will prob. end up 3rd, 4th, and 5th seed. But do not expect them to go to the Championship. I told ya... Celtics had this lol.

This game has nothing to do with postseason rankings. I bet the Cavs finish 1st in the east, 2nd at worst.

[Turob]

I'm wondering how thats gonna reflect on the next Cavs game vs Raptors if they lose. They will definately want to avoid starting 0-2 and might come in full force vs a Raptors squad that hasn't clicked yet. Might be an easy bet tomorrow.

Celtics are the dominate team!!

[Chi_archie]

shocking results right now

Cavs will not finish 1st in the East.

I was thinking the same thing. But I highly recommend not to play on a team playing on back to back games especially on the road. The Cavs should win that game I don't see Toronto as a threat. Jarret Jack, Turkoglu, and Bosh can't do it by themselves, but then again who do the Cavs have lol. But yes Turob I see the Cavs being really upset with themselves losing to the Celtics and bouncing back tomorrow in Canada Eh. But it's still a no play for me.

[Turob]

Well, lets just wait and see how this one ends. Lots of time left.

Looks like today might be a dog day...

[stocker08]

AP? Adrian Peterson? To compare Lebron to AP isn't an insult to Lebron.

Insult???? If you are trying to be sarcastic, its hard to detect.

Sorry typo, meant is not isn't.
