Agreed on the split. Sixers aren't beating Toronto assuming they move on and Raps get by the Cavs.Comment -
Where would Boston be without Stevens ? LOL- dont humilated yourself dummieOriginally posted by IBetYouComment -
Stevens resume at butler was a fluke also ?Comment -
I guess LB is right line says they will but I still don't buy for one min bron gonna lose to craptors. Just don't freaking see it, isn't how the NBA works!!Originally posted by KRIT
Really regret playing sixers cause once I gave it little thought made far more sense to play the home dog to get a W. doubt it hurts me but gonna force me into a worse spot if Boston gets this one.. I'd kill to get lucky and this be game sixers win so I can go Boston gm 2.Comment -
Toronto is trash - lebron will bust them up againOriginally posted by KRITComment -
Stevens is a great coach, but to say he's the reason the Celtics have had a great season is naive. He has a highly coach-able team with good talent.Comment -
Plenty teams have talent ? Doesn’t translate in wins ? When you got a DUMB coachOriginally posted by IBetYouComment -
Going note 6-3 redsox told ya man - Boston sweep tonightComment -
Not all teams are coach-able. How would Stevens do if he were coaching the Thunder this season with Anthony stinking up the joint? Instead he has under the radar guys like Tatum/ Brown/ Rozier -talented players with a good attitude ...and Al Horford to tie it all together.Originally posted by ikid2groove415Comment -
Coaching so overrated in this sport on this level.. you ever notice all the great coaches w all the rings had HOFers all over the court?? Having a crappy one sucks, having a good one just ensures you won't lose because of him and sure you can get past a shitty team in 1st round missing half your squad.Originally posted by ikid2groove415Comment -
Glad you finally winning a -200 fav. Bout 16 more in a row and you be out of hole from previous 7 losses. Blue Jays was only baseball play I made posted in dog of day thread as always.Originally posted by ikid2groove415Comment -
I doubt everyone here post all there plays ?Originally posted by 2daBankComment -
Thunders would be challenging for the finalsOriginally posted by IBetYouComment -
Again not the point. It a very simple concept man, every time you lose one of those redic juiced baseball games you have to win 3 to get back above water. I've bet bases a long time w pretty good deal of success, lots of it documented and I'm just trying to help ya out here. It incredibly difficult to profit in bases playing those heavy chalk plays. Doesn't mean they won't win, they should win, hell they have to win in the 66-70 percent range to break even!! That the whole stinking point, I really have done my best to get ya to understand. I get it you a degenerate action junkie and those look "easy", of course betting all the big dogs not the answer, it rare I get involved in those games either way other than occationally thinking there value on the dog, or better yet when I can get the +1.5 at plus money in a game I feel will be low scoring.. every night there a handful of far better options on dogs and favs priced below -150.Originally posted by ikid2groove415Comment -
Ya I will admit bad habit taking favoritesOriginally posted by 2daBankComment -
You do a little homework and you can find much cheaper favs that prob have much closer percentage chance of winning to those huge favs than odds suggest. Personally I suck at picking favs in baseball but I rarely seem to have a problem staying around 50% many years low to mid 50s w smallish dogs and totals: that what works for me, not saying it the only way cause it not. Just telling you something you would know to be true if you honest w yourself, even playing those monsterous favs it virtually impossible to hit at a high enough clip to stay in the black flat betting.Originally posted by ikid2groove415Comment -
Easier matchup for Horford this series, even though he has to defend Embiid. The Greek defended him well -Maker also.Comment -
Boston may not be that good but neither are Sixers. Asking a young team like them to go on the road and win by 5 or more in the playoffs isn't easy.Comment -
Boston with a healthy roster would torch GSW/Houston - brad Stevens is lite years ahead of Kerr and that phony fck mike dOriginally posted by KRITComment -
I think it as much about the layoff. I fully expect sixers will cover one of these games. Not really sure they would pull off a close one. Still another half and personally don't really like my team leading at half in this freaking sport of constant 20 point swings!! Lol.. I do think you went about this right way and normally same way I would have, dunno why I choose the fav route when fully believe it be split, I almost always take dog when I feel that way an this one was even the home team which even better! Total brain fart by me.. I'll be playing cavs to get a win in Toronto too.Originally posted by KRITComment -
If's when's and but's are more useless than a bag of nuts. You can say that till your face turns blue but it don't make it true.Originally posted by ikid2groove415Comment -
I wonder if Hayward might return at any point. He started jogging a few weeks ago. NBA training camps are typically 2 weeks, so it seems feasible...Comment -
Kerr is nothing special - he’s got 4 hof- (speaking as a GSW FAN) not going waste my time on HoustonOriginally posted by 2daBankComment -
No shit. Doesn't matter how good Stephens is Boston wouldn't be beating 4 HOFers. That the point, they most certainly wouldn't even give GS much of a series let alone beat them.. Houston? Sure maybe, nobody on that team has proven anything.Originally posted by ikid2groove415Comment -
Bro with a healthy Hayward and kyrie - they will run them off the courtOriginally posted by 2daBankComment -
Lmao. Those dudes ain't half the players Durant stef and the warriors are.Originally posted by ikid2groove415Comment -
Steven's was winning with inferior talent at Butler. If you can't see he's a much much better coach than a guy like Tyron Lue, you shouldn't be gambling.Originally posted by 2daBankComment -
You can say that tonight alsoOriginally posted by 2daBankComment -
Sixers been dominate from the start - should of put more on thisComment -
Horford > Embiid
Celtics in 7.
Comment -
Who would these teams rather face in the next round? If they draw the Raptors they're on the road. If they draw the Cavs they get James.
Comment -
nice call OP........ and this is largely hindsight but the series price was great value. i mean, celts have HFA and i think that is much larger in playoffs.
philly is a great story but so new. tougher defense in playoffs. interesting stat that simmons didn't voluntarily attempt a 3 point shot this season. his few 3PA were all motivated by the clock.
no idea but you'd think that embiid might have some injury risk too.
boston = great coached team and horford seems like a criminally underated player. i would almost say he could improve a terrible team by himself.Comment -
He said he thought the Sixers would win.Originally posted by gojetsgomoxiesComment -
