Celtics are -3 over Lakers

[TheLawFirm]

Celtics will cruise and Ray Allen will become the 3 pt king

[ZZPop]

I'm liking Boston -3, trust Boston at home way more than I trust the lakers on the road.

[nah0228]

I like the celtics -3

[BetterBizness]

Everyone seems o be on Celts yet line drops to -2.5...

[RedSox88]

Celtics -2.5 right now is a great bet

[krisztian20]

It is -2,5 at the moment, but i like this play...and with a nice tennis match i will make a good parlay

[Pew Pew]

Now it's at -2 :O WHATDOESTHISMEAN!?

[LBDT168]

Just want to respond to those that are using the trend regarding lakers' subpar performances vs elite teams, although as convincing as this trend may seem, I wouldn't look into it as heavily because after all, these trends are bound to be broken and on what better stage than in the Garden in a revenge game vs an old time rival?

Plus, the NBA never fails to surprise when the "public seems to have things figured out"

Thats not how it works. You posted bullshit, you're the one that needs a source for your bullshit.

[VegasInsider]

He's not out. Doc said he's playing Thurs

[squid44]

Happens, had a decent night so I'm smoking the victory blunt still sipping some crown and coke. I can get carried away sometime.

here here for victory blunts !! bol all !!

[sweetjones55]

Every site on the internet says Pierce is playing. Guys play through the flu all the time and he had a full day of rest. Did I mention Boston is playing the Lakers today on national TV in the Garden? lol

[syy211]

like boston ..bol for everyone

[LChruscial85]

Pierce is playing tonight....and honestly i'd still take the Celtics with the spread if Pierce WAS out

[jjgold]

Small play on Boston -2.5

[B1GER1C828]

c's -2.5 for me.

[ParlayJunkie]

I'm on the under.

[mdemps9190]

Thinking about making a big play on C's as well -2 though.

[B1GER1C828]

pierce will play, he won't miss a game vs lakers.

[cblackgold]

im on celtics -2.5 (and so is THE BODY)

[redbull]

bear LA , beat LA
celtic good at home.
pierce health another camouflage

[Stinger]

Hard to tell, but Boston at home...

[Broken-Ear Glen]

Had the Celtics not won in LA I'd be all over them but the revenge factor is so huge in the NBA IMO...no bet here unless UNDER.

Show me a stat that gives this an ounce of credibility.

[esulima]

Celtics -2.5 right now is a great bet

Revenge over a big sample of 1000 plays hit 50%, just like all these other really simple angles like b2b etc.

[GimpedMaster]

Going Celts here... May God have mercy!

[k13]

Playing Lakers ML for a small play.

[YorkHunt]

My money is on the fakers

[Shifty107]

Show me a stat that gives this an ounce of credibility.

Just from this year:
31/1/11 - MEM beat ORL in a revenge spot and covered
29/1/11 - ATL lost to DAL in a revenge spot
24/1/11 - NOR beat OKC in a revenge spot
21/1/11 - SAN beat NY in a revenge spot and covered
18/1/11 - CHI lost to CHA by 1 in a revenge spot
14/1/11 - GOL beat LAC in a revenge spot and covered
12/1/11 - DET lost to MEM in a revenge spot
08/1/11 - CHA beat WAS in a revenge spot and covered
07/1/11 - PHI beat CHI in a revenge spot and covered
15/12/10 - LAL beat IND in a revenge spot and covered
14/12/10 - MIN beat GSW in a revenge spot and covered
8/12/10 - IND lost to MIL in a revenge spot but covered
4/12/10 - PHI beat CHA in a revenge spot and covered
30/11/10 - BOS beat the shit out of CLE in a revenge spot and covered
24/11/10 - ORL beat MIA in a revenge spot and covered

Not a large sample size, (nor do I claim to have picked up every single possible revenge game). But these were the main revenge spots I saw this year and they have gone 11-4 SU and 11-4 ATS. Not too shabby if you played them.

[capitalist pig]

On the Lakers, but Im a fan of them so it doesnt mean anything.
