    Booking Houston a day early

    Spurs had their game for pride last night,
    and we all know the Rockets played too casually
    for much of the game.

    Tomorrow night it's different.. Rockets will play up
    to the home crowd, and Parker is done for the postseason.

    This is a situation where booking Houston early is sharp.

    -4 (-180) but already starting to move.

    Im with u on houston but as far as predicting public sentiment I'm not sure an aging Tony parker is going to detract spurs backers. I'd say the public is more inclined to go with the most recent output as in the latest blowout. Could be wrong but just my 2 cents. Let's get it

    We don't care what the majority thinks, because we know that Tony Parker steps up
    for the playoffs and he is glue on the floor .. his presence brings playmaking stability
    and automatic, fast decisions that the substitutes will lack, especially at the road playoff
    level.
    Listen to D'Antoni.. basically if the Rockets get out in transition, the Spurs can't win.
    It was no accident when the Rockets blasted Spurs by 27 in Game 1. They let up last night
    just like Shaq said, their mission was accomplished.
    We can expect 100% straight out of the cannon tomorrow night !

    i hope people just see the final score and think the spurs were amazing.

    game 1 houston wrecked them from start to finish

    game 2 was close for 3 quarters and then just got away from houston. was closer than the final score shows

    Respectfully, I disagree. That run was obvious to anyone watching the game or even following the stat line. The referees kept that game much closer than it ever should have been.

    I am not saying anything about what will happen in the next game(s), but you would need to be blind not to see that the Spurs were about to go on a run.

    all i know is that tomorrow night I will be having a damn close look at, and be able to clearly see, all the runs either team decides to go on, as well as a good view of what the "public sentiment" in Toyota Center is shaping up to be....

    cocktails and steaks at Sullivan's Steakhouse on Westheimer at 6:30, game at 8:30, Four Seasons for no, not a "night cap," but for an all-nighter.....

    That should be a warning sign.

    As online betting availability has become more widespread,
    the European and international preferences for money line wagering
    have attracted greater dollar volumes.
    Any money line with an expected favorite that is reasonably priced is
    likely to accumulate action, resulting in a commesurate adjustment to exposure.
