    The Miami/Bulls series will end tonight for sure
    I actually really considered taking the Bulls plus 5 in the last game but ended up going with MIami -5. Tonight giving Miami any points seems like a joke.

    Last night the entire team was at D Wade's house in Chicago watching the Dallas game. Last time the Heat did this they went into Chicago and won game 2. All the pressure is on the younger Chicago team tonight. I expect them to play hard and a good game but I don't think it will be enough. Miami is just the much better team and its not even close. We have yet to see a breakthrough game from Wade which he all know he is capable of. You're not going to continue to limit this guy to 18 points a game. I think Miami comes out in a different mode tonight and puts an end to this series like Dallas did.

    Theres no pressure on the Heat so I expect Lebron and Wade to have some fun with the jumpshot. I have no problem with that because if it starts falling this game is over. There's really not too many adjustments I can see Chicago making. You can argue that Rose did not play a good game 4 but neither did Wade. Everyone else on the Bulls had a solid game. Mike Miller and others have some new found confidence. The Bulls are gonna play well but this team as I said before is inexperienced and untrustworthy down the stretch of games. Yes NoCoin, Miami has 2 of the top 4 closers in the NBA. You heard it right from day 1.

    Miami +3 Risking $330
    Miami +145 Risking $200

        No one is holding Wade to 18 per but himself. He's clearly not 100% and it's going to cost them.

          Where did you get this info from? Wade is 100% healthy. If you think he's gonna drop less than 25 tonight than I think you should rethink it, but do what you wish

              Based on your confidence in Wade's scoring tonight, I would assume you are taking his over 23.5 total points prop. Easy money, no? According to you it is...

                Its not easy money because he could get right around there he might decide to get 23 and 12 dimes tonight. I'm not sure what mode he'll come out in but I think it will be scoring mode. I might put $50 on that prop now that you mention it.

                  You are so blinded by your love of the Heat it's not even funny. Bulls wins this game, Miami closes it out in 6 just like i said before the series.

                    ...Seriously, this has to be the worst reasoning of all time. Your very first point was that the team watched the Dallas game at Dwyane Wade's house.

                        Its not a matchup analysis like my last threads which have been spot on. What do you mean though- Miami watched the Dallas game last time at Wade's Chicago house and came out and won game 2. Watching that game as a team does more for a team than you might think. The Bulls are done. There are no adjustments they can make to win this game. They know they can't win this series anymore and aren't playing with the urgency. They suck in the 4th quarter. Don't be so quick to assume these are homer plays because they are not, you are going to see me take Dallas in the finals at least twice.

                              And what do you think the Bulls were doing? Bro that shit doesn't mean anything. It's about performance and execution on the court. Chicago won't give up - it's not in their blood. If nothing else, Thibodeau won't let them.

                              You know that Mike Miller isn't going to play like he did the other night - he has been impressive on the boards but no way in hell will he shoot like that again. Miami is going to have a lot of trouble scoring tonight; I will be honest with you, i wasn't able to watch the other night so i don't know who was matched up on who but I would think we will see Noah guarding Bosh a bit more. Miami is one of the best home teams in the league because they are able to get out on the break and push the tempo and it really gets the place goin crazy. On the road, it isn't so much of an advantage.

                                Since you didn't watch the last game I'll let you know that after 4 games I've come to the conclusion that Noah has no chance to guard Chris Bosh. Bosh is way to quick when he faces the basket. Noah has constantly been in foul trouble too. last game you would see the Bulls controlled that game for the majority. The defensive plays Miami made at the end of the game and in overtime completely sapped any confidence the Bulls had in winning the series. To recap for you, Lebron and Wade simply took over on both ends of the court in overtime, on the key possession of the game, Rose went in for a wide open layup and Wade came out of no where and blocked it, Lebron then proceeded to dive on the floor and CRAWL for the ball to save it from going out of bounds.

                                The Heat don't need that game from Mike MIller. Dwayne Wade scored 14 points bro. The guy averages 25 a game during the season and has a good career playoff averages against the Bulls. The numbers always even out in the end. If Miami gets the same performance from Lebron, Bosh kicking in with 18ish, and Miami's bench with 15-20 (which 7ish will come from Haslem and we just need the other 5/10 from Chalmers and Miller), then I really can't see the Bulls winning this game. They just don't have the roster to make the necessary adjustments. Miami did not even play a good game in game 4 they just closed it down the stretch in crunch time. They were actually very sloppy for the entire game and still won.

                                  Goat, I did briefly see some of the end of regulation and OT so i know what you're talking about with the diving after loose balls. But here's the deal - Miami knew they needed that game if they wanted to win this series. They weren't going to let this series go back to Chicago tied in what essentially would be a 3 game series with Chicago getting homecourt. Now they have a little breathing room and won't be playing with so much urgency. I'm not saying they won't try. What I'm saying is what you saw from Miami the other night will be the same for Chicago tonight. This is their season and you've been watching basketball long enough to know who usually wins in this situation.

                                  One thing on Bosh, yes he is much better with his face to the basket and he does have a quickness edge on Noah. But Noah would be physical with him and even if Bosh does get a step on him, Chicago plays great team defense and would recover without leaving an easy passing lane for Bosh.

                                    In Game 2, the score was 73-73 with under five minutes left. In Game 3, the Bulls were down only 68-65 to start the fourth quarter. In Game 4, Chicago was up five points to start the fourth. The Heat aren't dominating, even if it feels that way. Winning three games in a row is possible ...

                                        Hate to say it but right now I have to agree with Goat Milk...The Weep, er I mean Heat have this team's number and the Bulls now it.

                                        Although the Bulls will probably lead at half...Cryami will get ghost calls in the 4th and we all know the rest.

                                          Yes which is why I said Chicago will play well but they are just fatigued in the 4th quarter bro and they don't have their legs at the end of games, especially Deng and Rose. Your argument is fair but we have to realize how BAD Miami played last game. They were very sloppy. I don't know what the assist numbers were but I don't think they had too many team assists. A lot of it was isolation. There's just no way MIami will play that type of game again, no way. OKC was in the same spot last night and we all saw what happened there. If Chicago plays like Miami did last game like you said they won't win this game 100%. Besides hustling and making the big plays, Miami was very unorganized.

                                            It all depends on a late push by one or 2 Heat players and a little help from the refs, that's all there is to it.

                                              Agree to disagree. I'm taking Chicago tonight, might be a decent-sized play for me. Miami in Game 6 is a stone cold lock though.

                                                Conference finals have not gone well for me, no doubt.

                                                  I was leaning heavily Miami, since everyone else including Lang, Quinn are on Bulls ML. But Goatmilk is a bigger fade then LANG, and it's a no play for me

                                                      If it's for sure, why only risking $530. Is that your whole bankroll? If not, why not bet your whole bankroll on a 'for sure' thing? Makes no sense.

                                                          That's all I'm willing to put. Don't forget I have 3 thousand on the series too at -200.
