    MIAMI +175 GAME 2 too good to pass up

    I took Miami game 1 +165...series +140....and I'm gonna take them again here. If odds were closer to a pk I wouldn't bite but this is insane. Miami is much better at every position except PG and even there when Dragic is playing at that level like he was 2 years ago it's a debate. Miami's defense will stifle the raptors if they don't come out casually like they did a few times against the Hornets. No one on this team besides Lowry and Derozen and sometimes Valencunas can get their own shots at any moment. Derozen can't make plays for others, only Lowry can. Just a bunch of role players that play defense and grind out plays.

    Their offense in overtime was a microcosm of this team. No ball movement, no shooters, no scorers, horrible offense, players playing above their heads. Only chance they have to win a game in this series is if Miami gets lazy which they tend to do. If Miami really wanted to they could sweep the Raptors easily. Anyone on that offense can get their own shot. Dragic Wade Joe Johnson Deng and they are all playmakers too not just 1 on 1 scorers like Derozen.

    Small $150 bet

    I think Miami wins the series... I just don't know how many games? Miami 2-0 would be pretty dominant.

    It's basketball. You get treatment after every game. Especially if you're 34 years old a still a top 10 player in nba.

    JV was dominating in the 1Q and they stopped going to him. Whiteside looked slow and then no point talking about Amare he is a has been. Lowry/Derozan can they play any worse? Probably. Wade even though he's old looked as good as ever. Deng is a non factor, Dragic was the MVP of Game 1. He's the x-factor IMO.

    Although I don't know if Raptors will recover from Game 1 heartbreaking loss.

    I think they might just win one at home and call it a year. Getting to the second round was a big deal for them.

    Definitely like Miami for the series, as I did before Game 1, but this feels like a Raptors win. The Heat's job at Toronto is done for this trip, they'll focus on defending the home court now.

    Relying on a not quite top tier team to win 2 away games in finals is fraught with danger OP.

    Its one if the reasons why Heat are only a 'not quite top tier' team, because they let their foot off the pedal when they have breathing space.

    Raps in a blowout for me here. GL

    I see what your saying but the Heat still want to win tomorrow and head home up 2-0. A great team never steps off gas in postseason. Heat think they are great. Time to prove it. Miami ml and the points will be free roll bets for me after hitting them big in game 1.

    Good luck to you

    I think Miami got their gift game 1 as expected. And somehow almost managed to give it back. Raps should win by 8+ game 2. Game 1 Miami ML was a nice winner for me, but I'm not going to get greedy. Raps win and cover game 2. GL.

    My biggest bet since the Super Bowl was Miami Series price +145 here, however I can't put a dollar on Game 2.

    This would be Toronto's if any. BOL

    Series is a lock though.

    I will be waiting to make a live bet. I will be looking at Wade, will he be active and attack the basket? Play hard D? His knees cant handle going to battle every single playoff game. If Wade takes it easy tonight I will be making a good size live bet on the raps.

    He's not lazy he's just a little sluggish after the high-intensity overtime Game 1 and a 7 game series. Tough to match the energy Toronto came out with early on.

    Body is probably a bit achy and you can tell he doesn't quite have his legs today by the way he's missing on his shots. Not necessarily coming up short but it's an arms shot and he's hitting mostly back iron.

    Toronto have looked horrible first 2 games. Relying on a hustle guy like Demare Carroll to get shit done. Miami will probably crush in game III

    Miami couldn't close out when given chance. Would have liked to hit both plays but I'll take the profit for covering the number.
