    Bucks have looked awful the entire bubble pretty much and now you want them to beat Miami 4 in a row? Looks like you just bet based on team's or people's names rather than their current form. A bookie's dream.

    Correct however unlike the prior 139 times this is a TRUE NEUTRAL court due to the bubble so this is BY FAR the best chance in history that an 0-3 team can come back and win. if it happens, it happens this year

    they will likely play much looser in every game left and Miami will likely play tighter so there is *something* to this. there isn't much substance to it but there is a tiny bit. no true road game at Miami so in the bubble is the place for a team down 0-3 to come back and win.

    Here's pretty much the anatomy of the bet. I first made a MIL/LAL Finals bet in late Feb $2715 to win $8285 before there was any talk of a COVID shutdown. Obviously had I known plus the bubble factor I would've never made this bet cuz the home court advantage value is totally gone. Since then I got what I consider "free" money with the $1200 stimulus check & another $1350 bonus churning(Google it if you're unaware)bank checking account promos in the last 3 months. I deposited that " free" $2550 + my own $300 to get the bet to $5560 to win $17K even though I realize it's a shitty bet but was looking at that potential huge 12K payout & leaving 10K in the book. Long story short I dumped another 2K on the Bucks today which I totally get you saying is a bookie's dream.

    Well because it's not true. If Bucks come back to tie their handicap will be about minus 6 in the series decider. Maybe minus 3 for the one before.

    Another reason the series price is tighter is because injuries can happen. If Dragic turns his ankle next game it affects games 4,5,6,7.

    Seems everyone has lost faith in the Bucks. In that sense, there could be some value here but I won't be putting my money on it

    Well if the Bucks make it to game 7 I guess we’ll find out who is right then since we disagree.

    What's the deal with this guy and NLM Bucks?

    Bucks have more important things to do than playbasketball. They want to get out of the bubble and loot the shiit out of their cities while protesting NLM.

    This might sound retarded but I actually wouldn't mind if he sits this one out & gives his ankle another 2 days to heal. They're 5-3 without him this yr. & you often see teams rally around not having their best player & win when nobody gives them a shot. If they could steal this game without him playing and he comes back fully healthy then I give them more than a reasonable shot of making history.

    Heat win today and wrap it up. All Giannis is good for is rebounds and missed free throws, and they don't have anyone else to step up.

    Oh well guess I should have waited cuz that 1K bet at +950 now would've got me back an extra $500. Trust me if It miraculously hits I definitely won't complain about that.

    I can see that. Give his ankle more time to get right and pray they get it done today.

    Based on the current line Mil -1(117 ML) it's pretty obvious he's playing which I don't even know if I'm happy about, also don't like the fact late money is pouring in on Mil cuz Miami was just -2.5(132 ML) a couple of hrs. ago. I usually don't side with the square ass public.

    Nobody know if he's playing yet. I reckon the Bucks win this regardless. Too good of a team with or without the FREAK to get swept.

    Really should have won game 3. Choked.

    My only hope in the way they got blown out in game 3 is that this mirrors the way the Sox loss to the Yanks 19- 8 in 2014 in game 3 & we all know the rest

    Think about what you just said you doubt they could beat Miami 4 straight. You're gonna tell me if this goes to a game 7 using your logic the Bucks have no shot because for Miami to lose game 7 that would be losing 4 straight. Every team I could think of that got it to a game 7 from this position in NHL & MLB wound up winning that game except for Portland in Dallas in 2003. If you wanna tell me you can't see Mil coming back from 0-3 or even getting it to a game 7 that I get.

    Damn man you aint kidding Bucks series price just went from +1000 to +700. I definitely aint getting my hopes up thinking I'm gonna realistically win the bet but that's a crazy line for a team down 0-3. Just to give you an idea of how fucken crazy that shit is Den. is +650 at 1-1.

    It's official, he's playing. I think they give their best effort of the series here. A very tight nit unit -they care about each other. Have to wonder if they'll be jittery though -you can be too ready for these big games.

    After reading through your posts on SBR you're probably the guy whose knowledge I respect the most so just a simple yes or no.. Are the Bucks winning this series?
