    NBA sharps: Boston Celtics a play tonight @ -3?

    I don't bet the NBA much, but I'd be inclined to think that there's a bit of a Hayward overreaction and there's some value at -3. Off the loss, Celtics have decent depth(?), and first home game.

    What do you all think?

    Hayward is a factor also playing a back to back. Using lots of energy coming back from 18 down just to lose and finally bucks are foreal this year!

    Not that I am betting this or anything.. but these guys are professional athletes. This is the 2nd game of the season, a b2b doesnt mean anything here

    Thanks, gents.

    Deemer and IWIN are the sharpest NBA bettors on the forums. Wonder what they lean.

    Goat and LB is good too.

    Opportunity for new guys to prove themselves in here and break this game down. Earn your stripes, guys.

    If you saw post game LeBron interview he was gased and mentioned he had till Friday off and needs to do some major conditioning. Give them a week or so before they are in form. I'm not saying Boston won't cover they might win by double digest but there's to many factors for me to bet them.

    Good luck

    Kerr also said his players were out of shape and couldn't bring the energy late.

    -3 a sharp line

    Parker out, the only question is how much will Giannis dominate

    The C's are still undeniably the more talented team here but all pre-season they've been scheming around Hayward playing a big role on this team, now in one night, they have to come up with a new game plan

    This is a no bet game for me

    BUT..... If I had to pick a side, I'd take the C's -3, gotta go with talent

    Nice. You east or West of the Cascades?

    It's been a great summer and nice Fall (week) thus far, but the rain starts today. Should finish up in 6 months

    Oh ya, know right where that is. I've waffled for a while taking a job at a hospital in Vancouver vs. Portland, we looked at some land in the Barberton and Camas areas, just tough to make the jump when Im close to being vested in the state pension at UW. Probably ride it out, and we'll be down there your way in a year or so.

    Not sure what you guys are talking about. Conditioning will definitely play a factor tonight. Just because they are professional athletes does not mean they are in peak condition at the first game of the season. If you've ever done anything physical then you know you are sore the following day, no matter how hard you train. The game mentality and preparation is different.

    I expect both teams to experience fatigue, especially Celtics after playing a game less than 24 hours prior and losing 30-40 minutes from a starter. Celtics will probably have a lead for most of the game but watch for the Young Bucks to make a comeback and push it till the end.

    Not sure. I think on other end Tatum will have more success, last night bron started night stuffing some weak shit he went to rim soft with. Then few other times he again went up weak and got his shit pushed in being tentative. Good learning moment for kid to be stronger with his finish. I seriously know less bout NBA than any other league but for what it worth over kinda makes sense to me.

    The Celtics lost because Kyrie couldn't close out the game in crunch time.
