I think the line is ok at -6. I think the Lakers will take this one again by a good margin, maybe by 8 or 9 points.

If 57% are on the Lakers, 43% on Celts, but most of the money is coming in on the Celts, that's all that matters for Vegas and/or a bookie. Today, Celts were a public play and the sharps had big money on the spread, and sprinkled some on the ML too.
For example, one of my locals today was offering Boston +7 because he is smart. Do you know how much he probably cleaned up? It's all about manipulating the line to allow your customers to think they are getting great value.

Lakers win, but don't cover. Maybe even a backdoor Boston cover just to bury Joe Public.

Public blood in the water. They're doomed for a fall here.

Lakers will cover with ease again. Remember.. Celtics went 6-0 ATS in the previous finals. Take Lakers this entire series and enjoy

Meh -- not sure if I'd go that far.
Originally I had:
Lakers win Game 1
Celtics win Game 2
Lakers win Game 3
Celtics win Game 4
Lakers win Game 5
Lakers win Game 6
But after tonight, I'm not so sure about a SU Boston win on Saturday.

I don't know -- I originally posted it on the 30th, if this helps.

Sharp post.. I learned that in my gambling infancy from many of losing wagers The most perceived value in any line is when the opposite exist.

Then again, you accused me in that thread as well....
In fact, I'm not sure I've started a thread -- NBA or MLB alike -- where you haven't posted recently.

The only time you want to pay attention to any line movement is when it has RLM

Just a gut feeling on all three, including the O's.
Like taking Friday night home dogs -- just like NBA.

LA will cover all 6 or 7 games of this Finals to balance out their not covering a single game from 2 years ago FINALS. Sounds ridiculous but it could happen. Its the NBA, where AMAZING HAPPENS. I've come to this conclusion after watching the game 1 matchups & Los Angeles looks young & fresh while Boston looks old & grumpy.

I say your best one has the best payback odds but if I was to play the Padres tonight it would be the RL-110
As far as the Orioles trash their sorry ass excuse for a baseball team
ASSTrogs are almost as bad but just might be worth it......................
