Not sure who I like in Game 3, but I'm on the under

Sounds good to me. Like the Lakers in a low-scoring affair. Celt's win game 4, Lakers game 5

Something tells me that, after two overs, Game 3 will be a slugfest and officiated much, em, "looser" than the first two (58 fouls and 67 FTs tonight; 54 fouls and 67 FTs in Game 1).

My guess is we see less than 50 fouls, less than 60 FTs, no 57-point quarter like the third in Game 1, no 27-point half from Ray Allen like Game 2, and a total hovering in the 183-188 range.

I'm not sure about the under ..the total in this series is hard to predict

I can assume then that your GIVING UP on the over/unders only stands for bets on MLB...........................

Anyway hope we can hit this for G3......

PROfitableEnergy · 06-07-10, 03:01 AM

game 1 was the under... 192 was the o/u, final score was 191 total...

under, over, i agree with the under for game 3 however

Lakers money line is my best call for game 3. Best of luck!

clbonham2 · 06-07-10, 06:32 AM

over seems to be reasonable to me. both teams can score at will. If one team catches fire the other will follow.

mkoren · 06-07-10, 06:47 AM

I think i'll take lakers, don't like o/u this time.

Only MLB, yes.

Hate to say it, but the line only dropped below 191 at a few books at the last minute.

To claim that it went over the lined total is a big, big stretch.

bos -3.5 looks great in game 3

pepsiORcoke??? · 06-08-10, 03:53 AM

I like the UNDER as well, but I know for sure I won my UNDER bet on game 1. I had it at 192, so it's 1 UNDER and 1 OVER so far for the series...

BigMama · 06-08-10, 05:49 AM

Lakers for me...good luck

mundane · 06-08-10, 06:07 AM

MOST of the stats and trends i've looked at point to celtics winning and covering the spread by 1-3 pts. BUT a FEW point to lakers winning this game up to 5 pts.
and about the totals, 8 out of 12 games should go UNDER, barring overtime.

*dont ask me how i came up with these numbers! lulz! i have a weird way of capping games sometimes.

....with that said, im (also) taking the UNDER on this game! BOL to all!

Fade this guy, even if you lose fading him today you will eventually be up in the long run.

no need to hate it did drop and if you did get 190.5 or bought the # down you cashed like me. 2-0 soon to be 3-0

if you feel the need check in-game thread more then a few on closing number

@ tailgating my posts and mentioning me under your user name.

What a pathetic little groupie. Standard degenerate know-nothing living in Mommy's basement placing losers with his allowance money he earned by taking out the trash in prompt fashion.

SparJMU · 06-08-10, 08:17 AM

NoCoincidences, I don't know if you read my analysis of the series over/under before this thing started where I broke out the LA-OKC matchup and the LA-BOS matchup from 2008, but my conclusions pointed to most of these games going under.

However, I think this one is extremely tough to call. I don't necessarily think the refs will change their approach, and we haven't seen what this series will look like playing on Boston's home court.

I would tread lightly with this one.

brandonlang · 06-08-10, 12:37 PM

i like the over sir gl

game 1 was middled on the total.

Thanks, LB. Had family stuff all day, so I didn't get to see the game. Locked in Lakers ML, Lakers +2.5, under 192.5 and a Lakers +6.5/under 196.5 tease this morning.

Also had a 7-team parlay ($5 paid $222) for the hell of it:

Lakers
Lakers under
Twins
Brewers
Red Sox
Phillies
Cardinals

I can't be too mad, though -- I never, for a second, questioned the Cardinals pick. It wasn't one I just threw in for the hell of it. Can't believe they didn't score a single run off freakin' Kuroda for Carp, who was outstanding vs. LA as per usual.

Thanks, fellas.

Helped soften the blow of a murderous night in MLB on Monday.

I'm going to miss hoops -- and I don't know near as much about it as I do bases. Go figure.
