Completely false. I thought I had a bet. If the Celtics won, I would've paid you, because I agreed to my end and you agreed to your end. I wasn't even online before Game 1 started. I went away from the Internet thinking I had a points bet on the series. This was the only bet I placed on any series in this year's NBA playoffs, BTW. Then I come back Saturday night and see you trying to claim you backed out. It's not like Cleveland has a big advantage. They barely won Game 1 at home. If you want to know whether I honor my bets, ask around. I've made a lot of bets on this forum and honored every one of them.

I'll go ahead and start saving points. Will send them once I get to 200.

thank you. That's if Cleveland wins the series, of course, which is no given the way they played in Game 1.

They'll need to play better to advance.

Pierce over in pts props is my play of the day.

**yisman** · 05-03-10, 09:47 PM

see, it looks good for you now.

Boston takes Game 2 by double digits and is now in the driver's seat.

**rickbo528** · 05-03-10, 10:09 PM

I go back to the Bulls series and if you honestly looked at it Cleveland won with 3 pt shooting with at least 10 or more in each game. If the Bulls had any 3 pt shooting or a threat of it Cavs would have had a hard time. Now all the threes that Williams, Moon, Jamison and West were draining AIN'T falling and Boston is making theirs. I don't care how good Lebron is the Celtics have more proven playoff scorers. You have to wonder about Lebron's condition now. Can he carry them by himself? When his supporting cast ain't draining threes Cavs look very vulnerable. Time will tell but if Celtics keep the pressure on Lebrons supporting cast I don't think they will come through. Lebron will have to win it by himself. I think if Boston takes game 3 they roll in 5. But Celtics have laid some big eggs at home this year.

This isn't a call on the game. It's a call on the series. Should be an interesting rest of the series for sure.

**Colt** · 05-03-10, 11:58 PM

I think so

**eberetta1** · 05-04-10, 12:15 AM

Cavaliers backer here. You gotta quit betting with your heart. It can only take so much abuse.

Can't bet with your heart in this business.

Thank you sir.

Looks like you made out well also with sbrjohn's offer.

**yisman** · 05-13-10, 11:43 PM

yes

It was a good hedge after Game 3.

celtics have no bench players and their starters can't play every minute of every game

they know how to win though so if they can keep it close they might steal a game or two

or the hole series bahahaha

You know who was guarding Rashard Lewis last year? Wally Sczerbiak

And who was guarding Howard? Zydrunas and Andy

Major upgrades on this years roster... Jamison is going to abuse Garnett

the Celtics have 1 distinct advantage and that is at PG... but Rondo is not going to beat the cavs 4 out of 7

That didn't develop

Maybe you meant it the other way.

**36mafia** · 05-14-10, 11:49 AM

good call on the celtics

If James is 100% Boston has no shot, if he is playing hurt Boston can win in 6.

Threads are so funny to read again after the games are played out!

**tealish** · 05-14-10, 01:24 PM

@AnotherLoan- props to you for this call. I'll admit I was fooled into thinking the Cavs would roll in 6 games or less. I did not see Garnett regaining the use of his legs, though. He looked just awful before this series but came through. Great call
