MIA @ IND (1st Half): U 91, 2 units
Okay, so the series' is on the line for the Pacers; stands to reason Indy'll go back to what they're best @:
playing good d. A pure offensive game plan against the Heat simply won't work.
Heat was under pressure to pore on the steam in Game 4. But as a subsequence, the Over cleared just barely before the last whistle of the 1st half kettle. If 93 pts. is all both teams could muster after two quarters in Florida, then IMO, forecast calls for a U < 91 in Pacerapolis.
Kinda' get the feeling that MIA knows they can give one up before putting it into overdrive?Comment -

SAS/OKC
Alright...will probably put in my 2 cents on this one a little later closer to game time. Just did a Pix stat and feed check on tonight's matchup; now gonna go outdoors to enjoy some of this Cali weather to energize the mind and body.Comment -
Depending on your acct, OKC is the favorite by 3.5 to 4.5
Hometown blowouts have been the storyline in this series. Stands to reason the same thing will happen again tonight, right, with the Thunder rolling easy?
MIA has already clinched, and will undoubtedly root for OKC...'cause a Game 7 means less rest for either the Spurs of the Thunder vs. the Heat next week. SAS knows this, and will game plan a strategy to give them the best chance for a V against OKC tonight. If Spurs are close at halftime, I expect them to be close all the way through -

Absolute dissection Pix style. Cash em both!!
Just curious...why when some of you posters ask for help with your picks, do you not call on yours truly? That's OK, you have you're own agenda as do I. It's a win(s) baby!!! Next stop, the Finals.Comment -
Congrats to all who tailed.

MIA/SAS
Will probably pass on today's game.
Spurs want this series really bad, so unless they suffer a significant injury, SAS will most def give MIA a run for the money. But if the Heat are 3 - 2 going into Miami on June 17th, chances are the series ends there. A seventh game favors the Spurs. That's my take; anything else would be surprising to me. Good luck, fellas.Comment -
MIA/SAS
The Heat lose Game 2!? If that happens, MIA needs a straight three or at least 3 of 4 to have a chance at defending the crown. A Miami defeat tomorrow deflates, demoralizes, and dampens the hopes of a three-peat. I'm not convinced the LeBron brigade will stay quiet on the western front.
Leaning MIA.Comment -
...but then again, the only team that can stick it to Miami at home is San Antoine. For now, I'll go w/:

Gonna revisit this at halftime.
A few things to look for:
a) Lebron's Powerade

Yessir, thanks for tuning in. And to all the other kind watchers who have kept this thread lo pro. Because of you, things here have not gotten out of hand, if you know what I mean.Originally posted by getsome777Comment -

K, popular public belief is that the Heat's reg season home win record translates into a virtual home playoff win, right? Wait a minute, that's what they said about SAS - yet Miami handed one to them Game 2.
Next three of four games in this here NBA Finals will be held in Miami. If Lebron/Wade & Co. post a dominant win at an A/C comfy American Airlines Arena tonight, might as well turn off the lights on the Spurs, too, 'cause Miami will roll the rest of the way at home unlike Parker/Duncan & Co have been able to.
Thus, Pix says Game 3 is a must for the Spurs if they are to have any kind of chance at dethroning the Heat. Pop's team knows its now or never. Look for San Antonio to try and spoil the start of MIA's homestand.

Spurs playing spectacular hoops; exactly the message they needed to send this game on this day. Cautionary tale for Joe Public; Vegas is always thinking one game ahead.
No 2nd half Pix. Good luck if you're in on some more action, fellas.

SAS/MIA
Kinda have a good idea on how this whole series is gonna turn out. As for Game 4, just waitin' to read between the opening "line(s)" tomorrow to justify my rationale. Clue: I'm starting w/ the notion to expect the unexpected.
That said, I've already exceeded my personal expectation$. So, if I don't release any more free picks this series, its because I've gone to the next level. Enjoy the rush, and good luck the rest of the way.Comment -
The line for Game 4 opened MIA -11.5, then quickly shot down to -5.
Expected: Heat victory
The Heat had followed their last 13 postseason losses with a victory.
Expected: Heat victory
The public's perception was that the Spurs would not have two exceptional performances in Miami.
Expected: Heat victory
Vegas accurately acted on these expectations, including giving up a decoy 11 points the first six hours right after game 3.
Pix post #454 declared, "...expect the unexpected." And that's what happened. I'm the first to admit, I'm not always right on these prognostications. But I saw this one a mile away.
So what's Pix notion #5? Well, since presently there's no line, gotta wait until the oddsmakers finish creating a Game 5 line formula. For sure it'll be based on what you - the betting masses - are thinking is gonna happen next. No scripts, no trends, no systems. Read between the lines and maybe you'll figure it out, too.
Might have a brief pre-game, clue-only observation on Sunday. Clues are fun.Comment
