I'm putting my faith in The Greek one last time

I'm taking the Celtics on the first run the Clipps make, I think they will win SU.

Not taking a line worse than before tipoff.

.

they're record last 2 seasons on the 2nd night of a back 2 back is absolutely atrocious and they're playing on the road against a superior team. Is there something you know about the Clippers that we don't? Cause I can't imagine how anybody can put money on celtics to win SU on a b2b situation

See what the old legs have left

Pauulzcappin · 03-12-12, 10:55 PM

Got ML at +420

Stop using the Greek. Their longtime manager, Spiro, no longer works there. He was the one who keep their line sharp. Also since moving out of the US, their clientele has shrunk.

With you NC for the same reasons... If this don't hold... well... Not sure... Fade Greek? They have suckd donkey cajones for the entire year..

I never thought they were in the business of handing out money, but well... seems they are...

That's a farse... they would be like any other book offering reg lines if that was the case...

Interesting.

Stop trashing the Greek and just ignore. theyre never going to explicitly hand out winners and they never have

paco · 03-12-12, 11:24 PM

U still think those guys in there cubicle play the game instead of the players on the court ...

You're right paco -- you and I know more than the pros at The Greek who set the lines for a living. Good point.

You have to admit that a 25/30 cent difference in ML and a full point on the spread is a huge discrepancy.

Clippers offensive execution aside from Chris Paul ISO is a joke. Del Negro should be canned.

Far from over though.

Del Negro is awful. One of the worst -- if not the worst -- in the NBA.

Dunno man...antoni could give him a run for his money.

Pauulzcappin · 03-13-12, 12:07 AM

17-3 run by the clipps.

No coincidences · 03-13-12, 12:17 AM

Never thought I'd see the day when you could get the best line at The Greek by 25 cents.

Hell, even Bovada was at +180/-220/-5.5, while Greek was sitting at +195/-235/-6.

Nice hit Paul.

Guess you never heard of the Spiro lean?

Which statement of mine is a farce? Spiro no longer manging the book, or the downsising of their clientele base.

If you do not believe me, then just call them and ask for Spiro. Longest time you will ever be on hold in your life. They shipped all of their US clients to Heritage also, which is verifiable through SBR.

Now which is a farce?

I still use the greek to help make plays but you can't rely on them. If their line supports my play or I think they are taking a stance on a game then great but gambling isn't so easy that you can look at a line at a certain book and think its going to tell you the winner.

SpreadSniper · 03-13-12, 09:43 AM

With the U.S market jumping ship on the Greek why would you consider their moves to hold as much water as they used to?

Stop using the Greek. They used to have the best info, but their biggest players no longer play there.
