    Regarding your assertion that San Antonio is not one trick pony, what does really mean. How good are they without Kawhi do you think they are. Who are the other ponies they have. That pony is one of the 5 best players in the nba and a defensive player of the year candidate. One hell of the pony they lost.

    NBA playoff teams are constructed in a way they can overcome an injured starting player. Spurs should of won game one but they didn't and proceeding to be swept. Rest of the series w kwahi ceases to exist so it is what it is, no reasons to factor what could of/should of been.

    You know what, send it in on Cleveland, you're right, they're a lock.

    Bet all you can on the Cavs, bet more than you can.
    You won't even need to worry about that seventh game being played on Golden State's court.

    p.s. why am I even debating with a guy that can't even use a quote function correctly?

    People going overboard about the whole kawhi Leonard thing. Let's say the spurs had him for the whole series. They would have won game 1. Then lost in 5 maybe in 6.

    What a load of crap. Without Kawhi Spurs aren't even a playoff team.

    No man. All we can go off of is the fact that with Kawhi the Spurs were killing the Warriors by 20+. Spurs would have beat them IMO and I had them winning it all.

    GSW was getting their asses kicked until thugish Pachulia swept the leg and won them the series. They were getting their shit pushed in with Kawhi on the court. He was controlling the offense and defending on defense. Once he went out, the Spurs offense went to shit. As soon as he went down you could see the Spurs bench groan while GS players were jumping for joy. Mike Brown said after the game that Pachulia was huge for them that night. No shit, he went right after Leonard's legs. Straight up bullshit.

    There is not one person in the known universe that thinks GS would have won game 1 if Pachulia didn't take him out Mafia style. So people need to stop the shit about them being 12-0. Definitely an asterisks.

    People actually thinks Kawhi would stop the Warriors? One thing the Warriors do well is making adjustment and coming back from a huge deficit. Spurs might have won games 1 but no way in they eliminate golden state with Kawhi.

    but but but the one game sample size says otherwise. also curry single handedly shredded the spurs when KD was out in the reg season

    I'm from The City. I simply say that GS will capture the crown. Big Deal.
    I would rather go for a walk.

    The NBA is such a watered down product from the '90s.
    No hand checking, no defense. Both G.S. and the Cavs winning their respective conferences with barely a loss.
    There is no competition.
    Hell, both Michael and Magic would average 50 points on the current season with the given rules.
    The '92 Dream Team would mop up the current stars by 25 points a game laughing the whole time.
    Spare me.

    Using line loves to prove ones point is the absolute WORST way to defend your pick. I've been besting line moves for over 30 years

    1. I didn't use it to prove any point. It was merely an observation.

    of course you were trying to prove a point. you were trying to show that the line has dropped, implying it is a good wager. it's not. it's an awful wager.

    I have been beating lines since the early 80's and those here who follow my picks can tell I know what i'm doing

    Picking the Warriors to win 4-0 or 4-1 is an absolutely terrible wager. it will only win IF cavs players get hurt or suspended, or die.

    Lol yea. Sure you have.

    By the way I implied nothing. You can formulate your own opinion on the line move Mr. Lines Beater.

    GS -2.5 is a GOD AWFUL PICK. HORRIBLE. the ONLY way it wins is if key Cavs players get injured, suspended, or die.

    This is why I'm skeptical of Cavs winning series. Odds are way too good to win in 6 or 7 for Cavs. Wish I knew what the odds were last year?

First ... 2345678 ... Last
