    Thanks buck, I appreciate the advice but I gotta be a gambling man of integrity. Besides no way giant offers me 2:1 if Memphis takes game 1. Wager needs to be decided before series start. Giant offered, I accepted.

    Send me 500 and it's a bet.

    If Memphis wins, I'll send you back 1500.

    Is that how it works? What's wrong with just sending the points to the winner after the series is over?

    Shady, I'm one of the most trusted posters the Internet has ever known.

    Your name is shady.

    Nothing more needs to be said.

    Pay up or hit the road, pal.

    I don't have a problem with paying up front. I'd just like clarification on the usual practices of such wagers made in the threads. Is this commonplace to transfer points before the bet?

    Ugh can I get an opinion from a senior sbr member here on such betting practices? Giant made the offer so he's acting as the book. I'll send the points once I hear something resembling a confirmation. Anyone?

    Barring serious injuries to the higher seed, taking a 7 or 8 at 2-1 is foolish.

    That sounds reasonable 2 outs.

    Appreciate the insight horse but my concern isn't the bet but rather the handling of the bet. Mind is made up

    These odds have dropped dramatically after opening in the +721 range.

    Line dropped to like +540. Now back up around 700. Weird. Maybe a lengthy series.

    It all depends on game 1. Do books know something we don't cause the Spurs are trash besides Leonard.

    Tony Allen out for first round. Huge blow. Who checks Kawhi?

    Maybe Wayne Selden Jr. like I mentioned before.

    If you think Grizz will win the series they have to win game 1 or 2. Load up in game 1 and chase in game 2.

    this line is not absurd.

    thread title should be 'kawhi should have a week off before the 2nd round'

    Grizzlies’ Tony Allen has strained left calf, will miss at least start of playoffs

    Kurt Helin



    Memphis was already facing long odds going into a playoff series against the Spurs — a team that plays the Grizzlies’ style but better — and now things just got worse.


    Tony Allen will miss at least the start of the playoffs — and maybe all of them — with a strained left calf muscle, the team announced. Here is the wording from the official press release:
    Grizzlies guard Tony Allen has been diagnosed with a strain of the medial gastrocnemius muscle (calf) in his right leg. Allen is out indefinitely and will be continually re-evaluated while beginning rehab immediately.
