Magic are Very Square

[4seasons]

This is why Van Gundy and the Orlando Magic will never win a championship. They don't come to play every night, much less play hard. If they can't get up to play the Celtics even if they're shorthanded, at the Garden, a team who is basically their rival, a team who has beaten them twice in a row, why even bother getting dressed?

Score 36 points in an NBA half, only 46 total after 3, why even bother getting dressed?

Nelson, Howard, Davis & Turk with 16 turnovers, like they're unpaid, amatuer high-school kids. 23 turnovers total, way to go.

Howard with a +/- of -20, like he's playing in the game for free for charity with the Globetrotters.

You get paid more money than you'll ever need in your life, to play a game, and it's just despicable to me that you don't even try. Is giving it your all EVERY NIGHT THAT YOU ARE GETTING PAID, too much to ask? I'm not saying win. I'm not saying cover the spread. All I'm saying is fight with all you got 'til the last second. I'm watching the Magic the first half, their effort that is, and it is just woeful. It's like they just don't want to play hard for some reason.

Are you going to tell me that Van Gundy had his team ready to play their asses off tonight, had a game plan and strategy well thought out and ready to go to win this game, and then lose by 30 and not even score 57 to this Celtic team?

Congrats

The way Avery Bradley got into Jameer Nelsons ass was embarrassing. The guy was an all-star before, now he is a woman. Dwight needs to get the **** out of that loser ass town asap.

Black Sabbath - "The Wizard"

Misty morning, clouds in the sky
Without warning, the wizard walks by
Casting his shadow, weaving his spell
Funny clothes, tinkling bell

Never talking
Just keeps walking
spreading his magic

Evil power disappears
Demons worry when the wizard is near
He turns tears into joy
Everyone's happy when the wizard walks by

Never talking
Just keeps walking
spreading his magic

HAHA-HA-HA !!

Sun is shining, clouds have gone by
All the people give a happy sigh
He has passed by, giving his sign
Left all the people feeling so fine

Never talking
Just keeps walking
spreading his magic

I really want to hear from some of the ppl who came in here brazenly doubting BW. I dropped 3u on the Celtics the second I saw this thread title. This guy has done nothing but make me tons of money.

[cleaveland]

Here's an angle worth considering if you can't stomach Celtics +5.5 but you want to follow BW:

Magic as a road favorite are allowing 93.4 ppg.
Celtics as a home dog are scoring 83.5 ppg.

The Celtics team total is 85 for this game. If Rondo is back I might elect to take Celtics team total over 85, it looked like a good play before but considering BW's record... I just can't see BW being close to right w/o the Celtics scoring more than 85.

Come on man, 90% of the time my ass. There have been plenty of games in the past 2 weeks where teams missing their best player got destroyed.

Nice hit and an amazing streak you got going, but you didn't exactly expect 56 points from Orlando and a 31 point blow out.

[M.W.]

Celtics +5.5

This time I have to give you your props. You went a couple days without a play, and then you came back with this one? Possibly the sharpest bet of the year?

As I posted earlier, I thought that I had accounted for the usual NBA "variance" by taking Magic ML. I had sworn to myself that I wouldn't touch a road favorite in a nationally televised game but I made the mistake of thinking NBA TV was different than the others.

Here's my lesson from this game: NBA TV, TNT, TBS, ABC, ESPN and any other nationally televised game has to be considered the same. I will never touch a road favorite in one of these games again.

Injured home dogs

[demens]

I still dont get how games like this happen. Watch the Magic win in Indiana tomorrow too. NBA is funny like that.

[SoxSide Irish]

Every pick I'm afraid If I follow the wizard he will finally lose. I think I'm going to try the next one...

[demens]

I said it as a joke but i kind of think Magic might be a good play tomorrow. Bounce back game for them, let down spot for the Pacers and Magic owned them last year.

You're going for the ML? I prefer taking a shot at the ML on dogs of 4 points or less. **** a close game.

Thanks BW, cashed this one & had a live bet on Celtics ML when they were up by 2 points in the second quarter.

ye, magic ml didn't hit cuz it was nationally televised. celtics fkng won by 30, are you kidding me?

[Reedeman]

I admit that i thought the magic would kill the celtics without rondo... Good thing i went against my stupid intuition and took the +6(wincing visibly as i did)

[Automoto]

Nice call BW!

Have u ever thought they are paid to act too? Their masters(NBA) instructed them to default this game to clean up the squares. Losing one game or one season is nothing to the teams, but the millions wagered in the games is the primary focus. Mismatch of players and the superior team only score 56 points.

It's astounding how many of BW's underdog calls show ref favoritism, but more importantly how often the favorite looks to be flat and complacent with not even half the energy as the underdog choice in these games.

And how often it shows so early right from the get-go with the underdog covering the 1st half spread 95% of the time. Only once that I can recall has a favorite covered the 1st half of BW's many calls, and then in the 2nd half of that one the favorite was totally asleep right from the start (Houston), and the Hornets took it to OT after being down 14, EASILY covering the +10 only losing by 2.

But the energy difference of BW's underdogs in comparison to the favorites for his picks, is just astonishing.

It's Fukking surreal. lol
