          you figure if the celtics are going to lose it would be to someone you wouldn't expect though...they match up to the lakers better than any team the lakers have played this season outside of orlando...i think they go in and embarass them just like they did in the finals.

            I on the Celtics, mainly b/c they are the better team. simple as that.
            already put 1 unit on them at +2, may put another if the line moves in my favor
            where you seeing 2.5 at?
            Greek had +2 about an hour ago

                    posey was on kobe 75% of the finals. Now pierce will be on kobe the entire game so pierce will be a non factor on the offensive end i would think and kobe will be fine as he will be guarding ray as he did in the finals. I was expecting Lakers to be -5 and i was probably going to be on celtics but to be honest i feel like the celtics are a sucker bet tomorrow

                            Celtic fan that thinks Lakers win by 7-10. Will lose in Finals in 7 games to same Celtic team though.

                                What if Celtics are like, one of the best teams in NBA history. I do not think it is out of question to think this.

                                    If you do, I would take it soon because I wouldn't be suprised if it gets close to a PK/Boston favored before tip off.

                                      Yeah, I expect the line to come down, more towards a PK!

                                        I'll take the Lakers.

                                            Everyone thinks this game is a lock, they just can't agree on who. Seems big bets are going down on both sides of the coin. I'm staying away, not worth sweating Christmas over. Just enjoy a good game of b-ball.

                                              19 game winning streak and getting a couple of points...seems to me like the books are trying to make a Christmas score on this one. God knows how much espn has probably talked about their streak...the whole world will be on the Celts. LA or nothing for me.

                                                Many, many people will be on LA.

                                                Just like last year in the finals.

                                                  Very possible but a great % of the general betting public gets information hammered home by espn...the couple of times I have had it on espn after a game got over this week it has been all over the Celtic winning streak. People see that shit and look at the odds and say wow this team has won 19 straight and I can bet on them +2. Thanks for the gift.

                                                    If both teams play how they've been playing so far the entire season, it is a gift.

                                                    Celtics will roll that streak into the New Year.

                                                    Gl with your plays tomorrow.

People see that shit and look at the odds and say wow this team has won 19 straight and I can bet on them +2. Thanks for the gift.
                                                      That insinuates that games are fixed and that Vegas is trying to get people on the wrong side. Come on, they know exactly what we know. There is no trickery going on here, it's not like the Lakers have a hidden edge no one knows about. It's knuckle-puck time!

                                                        I will be the first to say, I had the Celtics last year with TSoprano and thought the Lakers would be the team in 09. But Boston looks even stronger now than last year. I think they may be a top 5 team ever in history this year. 70 wins is easily reached if they want to go for it.

                                                          Not insinuating that games are fixed at all...just saying that this could be a sucker line. Seems to me the books think this could be the game where the streak ends otherwise they would have placed it closer to pk. The line is about where it should be imo with LA at home. How much of the public that does absolutely no research and just goes off of espn would lay points against a 19 game streak?? Not many outside of LA homers...doubt I bet on this one though. Might play the over after looking into it a bit more but nothing on the side.

                                                            They play as a team on top of it which is the scariest combo this year. They are scary good but have to slip up one of these games...I think 70 will be easy for them as well.

                                                              The C's have been an absolute ATM machine: there is no way I'm jumping off now. Even though this is a scary game for us C's fans, I think the Lakers will be too emotional, too focused on revenge and not focused enough on team play -- whereas for the Celts it's just the next game on the schedule and they'll play their usual selfless team basketball.

                                                              So streak does not end today... maybe in Portland, that's a tough match-up.
