      I don't understand this bet vyom.

      If you like the Grizz to win the series, why not take them in Game 1 at a better price and just be done with it instead of waiting the whole thing out?

      Otherwise, hammer the series price before Game 2, again at a much better number.

        Is thinking there is more value in +115 series price than +170 in game 1 that unfathomable?

          Either bet +170 Game 1 or take the series price for a much better number after Game 1. Not that complicated.

            You are risking 3 units in total versus 1 unit.

            Thats the difference.

              You guys are donating money to the books. Spurs will win by double digits today an take the series in 5 or 6. Very low bad odd for you guys.

                i dont see how the spurs are any better than they were in that series. mem is better though. hollins is a good coach. i know you are from the city and follow closely but if mem loses it wont be because of hollins.
                i dont have the heart to pile on and wont since game 1 is over ... they arent winning a game in san antonio and they arent the better team...they arent better at any matchup except maybe zbo...how you can think otherwise is completely clueless ... he knows he got a bad price at 115 and shouldnt have gotten worse than 125...but its impossible to predict every line move correctly... pop putting on a coaching clinic and spurs shoot lights out while playing good D... like i said many times before, hollins has no clue how to make adjustments and puts his guys in awful match ups..he is a very basic plain jane coach who gets a ton of effort out of his players... good luck the rest of the way

                    If this was like the GS series where they played every other day I might agree with you but after tuesday, they don't play again until saturday. Hard to wear down with that much rest between games especially with guys who can use the rest because of nagging injuries.

                      they are better at 4 of 5 starting positions and have the better shooting bench and by far the better coach...the line is the same for game 2 and grizz wont win either...grizz dont run or score like gsw and they get more off days, so this fatigue you expect the spurs to have isnt going to be anywhere near what you have in mind ...if you cant understand that, then go dump more money on the grizz now and after they lose game 2... im just trying to point out the obvious homey...

                      like you said, its hometown for me, so of course it beats me up a little to see the harsh reality ... i wish everyone the best of luck and hope we can all find ways to win

                        Like I said before. The Spurs will beat the Heat. If the Mavs can beat em you know damn well the Spurs will.

                          Yeah, keep thinking this is the same Miami from 2011. Mavs beat them so the Spurs will lol.

                                if memphis doesnt look any better in game 2, there is no reason to bother getting any series money invested on them... if they make it a game, expect more money to come in on them...

                                  The most important point you made was the line is the same for game 2. That means mem wins game 2 or will cover for sure.

                                    Good job Spurs so far... plus nailed an in-game live bet and was done with game 1 at halftime

                                      it opened a half pt. higher and will close at least a half pt. higher... holy shit you really dont have a clue if you think that one game warrants much of line swing... im trying to help save you money, but if you want to keep chasing loses and coming up with ridiculously bad analogies, i cant stop you... hollins coaching wont allow them to win a close game against the spurs, but a backdoor is always possible... good luck

                                        Raydog settle down. You were so busy last year explaining to me how I took a bad play on okc +157 to beat the spurs, we all know how that turned out. Settle down. The spurs will lose this series.

                                          can't wait on the line in game 2 to come out. it's a clear bet on memphis + the points situation, or even memphie straight up. the spurs were essentially running the score up on the grizz there in the 4th with all those threes. this is the conference playoffs man. that shit ain't gonna happen again!

                                                Yes but are you really surprised the line didn't go up? This is common.

                                                        I might be the minority here, but even before game 1, I really like Spurs . Every single one on SBR will be on Memphis+5 for game 2, interesting to see how it's unfold.

                                                          Agreed. I leaned grizzlies to win the series before watching this game. Now I think I would bet the spurs if the line were right.

                                                              Exactly. I don't see how the books are tipping their hand by making Memphis +5 for Game 2, given they opened at +4 for Game 1. This is par for the course.

                                                                jaysus texhooper game 2 line was out 5 minutes after game 1 ended...pay attention kid... it opened 1/2 pt. higher than game 1... try to pay attention to others posts... it is 5.5 now... you guys dont have much of a clue if you think game 2 opening hoops lines are moved much at all based on 1 game results (unless of injury)... game 1 results are simply put into the model... you guys look silly thinking the line should have opened 2-3 pts higher based on the last games results

                                                                lakeshow, i vaguely remember telling you that it wasnt so bad that you liked okc so much, its that your were betting a shit line that didnt have true value... which you do all the time because you think your "gut" tells you where value is and you dont have a clue about it ... just like +115 series before game 1 here didnt hold any true value when vyomguy bet it... i wont give you shit about picking a side as long as there is a valid reason for it... your "gut" isnt a valid reason for betting a weak price and thats why you and so many others will never be successful... ive only tried to help. again, goodluck
