    Its gonna be 2-2 heading to indy. Pacers win game 5 at home and then 2 shots to wrap it up. This is one of those lines that books wanted orlando money.

    Orlando win tonight guaranteed a long series. 6 or 7 games. Most likley 7.Both teams didn't play that well, but Indiana was horrid shooting the ball. Also think they will defend better as the series goes on.. Will still be surpised if Orlando advances.

    I never understood the logic that a longshot won luckily or on a rare occasion. If Buster Douglas beat Tyson once, doesn't logic say that he could have beat Tyson again? Douglas matched up well with Tyson if you really looked at it closely. Same for most games where people thought it was an upset. There is no evidence that the favorite would win 70, 80, 90% of the time. All we know is that the underdog won. The team that most people thought would lose. That's the problem, most people don't know shit.

    Orlando +600 looks like a great bet a day later when most places now have them +320. Why would it be a sucker bet? You buy or sell based on the market at that time. No such thing as a bad line (unless you get ripped off). The line is what it is, when you buy it. Predicting line movement is like predicting the stock market, it's all a risk.

    He certainly received better value by betting them yesterday rather than today.
    Even if the Magic lose 4 straight now,you can't argue that.

    Had Dwight played Id have been all over the Magic, I remember they came from behind twice against Indiana after the half and won and I think both were in Indiana, still think Indiana wins the series.

    Seems like this series will go 7 no matter what

    Orlando winning it would be some achievement without Howard or Howard not as good as people think.

    You just cited the GREATEST upset in sports HISTORY, and used it as a example of why longshots win without luck? Tyson had so many personal issues going into that fight. If I recall, buster douglas NEVER won another fight again.

    I took Indy for +1000 to win the East as a small value bet, is that insane? from a value perspective?

    should have listened Paco, Richardson won that game 1 taking advantage of Indiana not closing it out... should have been a SWEEP like i said above too
