    Boston is an easy call. Unless the refs plan on putting Rondo on the bench with early foul calls. A penny for the League's thoughts

                what would kill us, is this:

                Lakers winning game 4
                Celtics winning game 5, 6, 7

                So I could definitely Stern picking this scenario above

                  this is what has me hesitant. I don't see Boston winning the final 3 games but a somewhat similar scenario.

                      I'm gonna watch the game again tomorrow night, but I'm leaning Boston spread.

                        I would suggest waiting. Boston looks to be the play but you never know.

                              If you do the chase and La wins game 4 you will be scared to take Boston in game 5 trust me. Thats where chases get tricky.

                                Probably, but I already have so much money on Lakers for the series that if LA takes both in Boston I'll still be up BIG.

                                Still, a lot of stuff to consider... I barely have time to cap baseball with finals but gotta love it.

                                  Normal chases perhaps. This is not a normal series. This is LA and Boston. The NBA is making a shitload on this one, and want the gravey train to keep rolling. If you look at the last 50 years of finals, about 1 in 3 ends in 5 or less. In the last 10ish years, it has been 1 outa 2ish. They are needing a longer series. Just my take.

                                      I am pretty surprised when games went 1-1 and my book still has Lakers favorable in series. With that, I changed my pick to Lakers today. What a lucky! Well for game 4 if open is higher than game 3, I guess Bos will win this game but not cover since line maker predicts gamblers will put heavy money on Bos so they raise the points. That what I think!

                                        The last time i remember someone saying something similar to what Pierce said about not going back was Clyde Drexler after gaining a split in the motor city. He said " we arent coming back to Detroit" He was right the Pistons won all 3 in rip city.

                                          It's certainly possible LB, but I'll take my chances that the NBA will see to a game 6 at least.

                                            lots of people are thinking boston is the play next game, and had made up their minds before tonight's game they were going to bet that the series would go 2-2 after 4. ultimately, though, the matchup inside and kobe being the ultimate difference maker/best player in the league are going to be the difference, it's just a matter of time for the lakers, imo. i personally am going to sit on my series bet on the lakers at -140, which i took the night that game 2 ended. i have been so unbelievably cold the last 3 weeks that i'm satisfied enough at the way that one looks right now.

                                            and magic8ball, hedberg was one of the best of all time. rip.

                                            he has another gambling joke where he says craps is a shitty game to play if your lucky number is 4 billion. "come on 4 billion!!...fukk, seven..." classic.

                                                i guess paul pierce was right when he said he wasn't going back to LA. lakers win the next 2 games and the series. in the next 5 years the lakers will catch up with boston for number of NBA Championships.

                                                  yeah steven wright is the king of that style, no one beats jiggs casey or bucky goldstein.

                                                  i think the 4 billion joke is on his second cd, mitch all together. funny thing is, i haven't heard your blackjack joke. but same goes for me, all i have to do is read it and i already know how he told it. a true master of his craft.

                                                  anyway, go lakers. i've never sat on a series bet before like this, ready for this shit to be OVAH.

                                                        boston is the play... I predict a 10+ win

                                                        after that, la will win the series 4-2 or 4-3

                                                            Boston will run away with game four, but i can't see them winning in LA again.

                                                              I said in another thread before game 1 that if Stern has anything to do with Vegas, the best way to screw over a whole truckload of gamblers is to have LA win game 1 and Boston win the series. So many people would've jumped on the LA series bet after game 1 because of Phil's playoff record. I honestly wouldn't be completely shocked if it happened.

                                                                I said LA game 3, BOS game 4 and 5 Lakers games 6 and 7 ...
                                                                But LA is simply better I said that all the way and for me to bet on BOS is simply hard. So I'm really undecided ...
