The Spurs Regained Home-Court Advantage On Tuesday Night and With It ,Favorite Status
The Spurs are one of the outlying six.. they won Game 3, but went on to lose the series to Miami in seven games. After losing a Game 3 of a tied NBA Finals at home, teams have won the title just two of 20 times. The format of the Finals, though, is now 2-2-1-1-1 after being 2-3-2 since 1986.It took a superhuman defensive effort in the third quarter by the Heat just to give the AmericanAirlines sellout crowd reason to stick around for the finish, but the end of Miami’s 11-game home postseason winning streak was utterly inevitable.The unshakable Spurs, best team in the league by regular-season record, are always capable of spectacular nights like this. In fact, last summer’s NBA Finals matchup went pretty much the same way, with the Spurs dumping 113-77 lots of humility on the Heat to take a 2-1 series lead.

That means Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury[SBR members] Miami can dig its way out of the exact same hole to win another championship. We’ve seen it before. We’ve come to believe in the destiny of a three-peat along the way,too. Can’t blame cramps. Can’t blame Dwyane Wade, who scored 22 points on 8-of-12 shooting. Oh, I guess we could blame Chris Bosh, who was held to nine, but that’s an old crutch. Comprehensively, essentially, the Heat flamed out as a team, beginning with a disastrous first quarter in which Le-Bron scored 14 and no other Miami starter had more than two..... ''Opps" Heat playing there 1st home game,Thought? they were playing Indiana??? !!!!!!!. The Spurs regained home-court advantage on Tuesday night and with it, favorite status in the updated series odds. The Caesar's SuperBook’s where I bet has new series price has San Antonio -215, Heat +185...... Heat opened at-5 went to -5 1/2 & 197 1/2 for the over in 4th game at Miami. All other books in town LVH, GldNug ,Mirage,South.Point,books are all the same for now. The team that has won Game 3 to break a 1-1 Tie in the NBA Finals has gone on to win the series 30 of 36 times. Now that's interesting!! Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury [SBR members]. My pick will be posted Thursdays thread, waiting for spreads and money lines change if there will be any major swings on "chalk" with the books here in vegas. Mr.Hårr¥THëHÄT
