Blazers will win Game 4 as well

[t-wizzle]

Books bumped the line up a couple points knowing most will take Golden State off the loss in Game 3. Expect a very similar game to what we saw on Saturday night. Portland feeds off the energy of the crowd and makes shots.

To be fair, Portland has outplayed Golden State for a good chunk of this series. Outside of the Game 1 domination, the Blazers were in control for the first 3 quarters of Game 2 and all of Game 3.

This series is going to be a struggle for the Warriors. You don't just lose a player like Curry and continue to roll. Thompson is very good. He's got a nice stroke and is an above average defender. But he's not a guy who can really create his own shot. Most of his points are the result of screens both on and off the ball. He's not a 1 on 1 player.

Look for the Blazers to win Game 4 and make this series a lot more interesting than people thought it would be. I like Warriors to win in 6 after Portland ties it up Monday night.

I hope so...my cavs future of 6-1 will be more solid

[lakerboy]

Agreed. If curry doesn't return warriors might need 7. Lillard is a monster.

[goduke]

it still doesnt change anything. These series are just too long. I feel like the same result can be gathered in best of 5.

There's nothing wrong with 7 games series in the second round. First round should be 5.

Portland was robbed by the NBA winning a series in 6 games then forced to go on the road 36 hours later for a new series. Way to give golden St a 1-0 start

Yea that wasn't right.

[lakerboy]

The warriors are in trouble.

[jjgold]

Laker boy bookmakers fear you and I think you're on the right track going not going to be close

[smitch124]

That sure seems like a solid ticket to hold at this time. Are there any Cavs prices out there right now?

2-1.

[jjgold]

I'm sure to be pretty close but like many said Portland is really tough to beat at home and without Curry I don't see how they lose

[Enoch]

I agree, Portland will most likely take game 4. At worst cover,but a win is likely. They have all the confidence right now and are home where they are tough. Only issue is Warriors have never lost back to back games this season. That worries me. Whats ur play on the total? I'm still liking the over. These two teams put up points like nothing.

winning a series is a test of depth, endurance, athleticism, mental fortitude. winning the 3 games is as good a indicator as winning 4 games. In a best of 5, the better team can lose. In a best of 7, the better team wins 95% of the time. when boston was up 3-2 to the heat back in 2011 or 12 (forgot which), I made a comment that Boston had expended most of their energy winning those first 3 games, and now they have to try and guard James and Wade for another 48 minutes. That lack of energy makes their jumpers flat, because they have no legs left.....

James and Wade went on to dominate, and I mean dominate the next 2 games and win the series in epic fashion. Their athleticism and endurance could not be matched by boston over the length of the full series.

I hope so!! Would love to see gsw sweat in 7 games!!!
I live the over 214 again.

William hill has a klay thompson prop bet 7 or more threes @ $5.. good value?

I should of clarified the first two rounds. conference finals and nba finals should be 7. But the first two rounds are pointless at 7 games

[jazzyj7]

I'm going with Golden state in game 4. Aminu missed 1 shot and was like 5/5 from 3 point land. That is the best the Blazers will ever play in a single game and I think it ends in game 4.

[JayDr3am]

im with it.

[t-wizzle]

Just locked in Portland +5 and +180.

Agreed. Only problem is the more games, the more money in the owners pockets, and they ain't giving that back. Better quality or more money, which way you think they lean?

[jjgold]

Portland +5 a good line

[DigBick86]

game of the board! will Curry start?

[bigskings]

Betting blazer ML. But be aware guys, Curry may play tonight

[TheHaus]

Adjust the line Portland -3?

[JayDr3am]

Adjust the line Portland -3?

terrible idea. you need every point you can get in this series.

[PREMOSIX]

Ok sleep on Gold St if you want

[t-wizzle]

Line back down to 5.5. Doesn't really matter. Portland is winning.

[lakerboy]

Don't like the movement

[t-wizzle]

I guess Curry is going to play after all.

[smitch124]

I can't see him starting though. I think they just wanna get him some minutes tonight.

[Underdog1986]

Take the Portland spread...I see this being a really close game with curry coming back..not sure if Portland wins tho

I still like Portland. Is Curry going to defend Lillard? Seems like it might not be the best idea.

curry cant guard lillard right now.. thats a broken ankle or torn meniscus waiting to happen... we all know curry is brittle. portland is still the pick IMO even if curry plays

So maybe Curry is just going to play mostly second unit minutes? That seemed odd at first but it makes sense.

[italianbandit]

I liked Por before the Curry announcement. Not anymore. Too much uncertainty now. His injury was very mild. You need to also consider the morale boost.
