the line stinks... what happened yesterday to the public in similar situations - BOS/OKC both able to take strangleholds on their series' and neither happened.... I DO think Pops/Spurs are good enough to win/cover, but again there is a right side and wrong side.... I'd play the game live and Q/H's, and if I like the Spurs (which I do, every square bone in my body wants to play them large) it'll be small, as suggested.

How does the line stink? They adjusted the line 6 points which is a bit less than the average playoff adjustment (7-8 points).

Line stunk all over yesterday. OKC goes from a 8 pt fav to a 2.5 pt dog? 10.5 line swing, it was obvious books wanted Thunder money.

If Clippers were the play, they'd be at least +3.

Paul, SA is blowing retards out of the water.... making men look like boys out there.... Griffin/Paul not 100%.... -5 and sticking.... looks like the books don't mind all that SA love, but then again I guess maybe they padded their wallets nicely last night and won't mind the hit......?

LAC (1H) +2.5 (-120)

let's hope so, if they get hit they'll aim on taking it back on the bigger money game okc/lal later

Lakers spread being what it was last night wasn't fishy, its more than just subtracting a certain amount of points and wah Kahn a spread. The linesmaker understood the desperation of the Lakers situation, they really outplayed Thunder in Game 2 on the road where we know they arnt that good, coming home where they are a lot better hence the -2.5.

Reedeman · 05-19-12, 02:27 PM

Refs would have their work put in for them to give this game to the clippers straight up; but to cover the spread? hmmm

Spurs are a well-oiled machine; That being said, i'm very hesitant to lay anything today after last night's display...

With tony brothers officiating, maybe look for 3pt calls favoring clips and tim duncan to get into foul trouble?

Coach Pop> Stern

Fukk Stern I'm taking the -5

Pauulzcappin · 05-19-12, 02:41 PM

Refs just took Danny Green out of the game.

therushishere · 05-19-12, 02:42 PM

Pop not too happy with one of the refs

mcwmiamisc · 05-19-12, 02:45 PM

Have a bad feeling +5 will win or even SU

pepero428 · 05-19-12, 02:45 PM

spurs live -1.5 ....

SpreadSniper · 05-19-12, 02:52 PM

regardless of what happens.... you know what im saying....? Philly game started out opposite, end result will probably be the same.

therushishere · 05-19-12, 02:56 PM

Just went in for 2 units on SA +5.5 with small play on ML +185.

Clippers are the best 1Q team in basketball at home, plus you add in the down 0-2 fast start to the third game at home angle and I dont see ever getting better value on the Spurs

Still not sure why I didnt take Griffin +17.5 points...starting the 1Q with 14 already...

Pauulzcappin · 05-19-12, 03:02 PM

22 pt lead for the clippers in the first quarter.

and I say spurs will still win the game.

I wouldn't be surprised if this happened

therushishere · 05-19-12, 03:08 PM

Does anyone know where to find a database of Vegas spreads with the end result? How often is a spread off by 15 or more in a playoff game?

SpreadSniper · 05-19-12, 03:11 PM

3Q boys... book it... Pops will tear em a new one, Timmy will be fresh and pissed and CP starts the Q on the bench, right?
