This goof has a nice smirk on his face, knows game 7 is a CERTAINTY.

[Holtgetsback]

No such thing as a certainty

good stuff

Lakers all day

Lakers all day

Thank you

[shari91]

Yep, he's on LA. Just read his replies to others. Hope he's right.

[jjgold]

He is a disgrace

He is due to lose though and that is why his Laker pick scares me

He hasn't said anything the past 2 games so just pretend he would have lost one of those. I think he's right. Now if you tell me you're taking LA as well, I'll feel much more confident about the amount I'm contemplating putting on LA. Give me a winner Spindles.

i gotta friend this guy

I called LA in 7 before this series started and even I am starting to lose confidence. Boston ats is the play game 6 shari. I won't take ML though. Never doubt Kobe.

Donaghy is an idiot by the way, he didn't open his mouth before because he didn't know what would happen. Now he, like everyone else, automatically assumes there will be a game 7. Stern knows that Boston would get blown out in game 7, it wouldn't even be close. He's not going to rig this game.

Make sure you look at his Just Others link. That's where he tends to sneakily post his actual thoughts on specific games because he's responding to direct questions. His main page tends to be the book promotion stuff. He makes you work for any info from him.

He said from the second Boston made it to the finals that it would go at least 6 and maybe 7 purely because of the dollar value an extra game means to the NBA. He called the first 3 games and then stopped, partly because people like our friend from another thread turned into nitwits flooding his page asking for his pick when he's stated since day 1 he now thinks gambling is evil. I don't know - he's been spot on the whole playoffs with his only mistake being the Cavs winning the series but he attributes that to the crap going on with that team off the court. I'm sticking with this guy - his record during the playoffs is much better than anyone else on here so there's no point in my doubting him now.

[Goat Milk]

so what I called lakers in 7 and i'm sure 95 percent of this forum had it going at least 6. How good is his playoff record? He has made like 15 total plays, I was 14-3 at one point too starting this playoffs. 15 plays is nothing.

Good luck but Lakers aren't the play ATS game 6, and there will be no fix in game 6 100%. It's Boston's to lose.

I'd rather burn my money than bet it on this Lakers team

Goat, he didn't say LA ATS. He said LA so don't get caught up in the line if you're discussing him because he sure as hell doesn't care about the point spread. He's made 19 or 20 picks now in the playoffs - 2 wrong. Can you claim that record? No one on here can. Anyway, I like hearing his thoughts as a lot of people on here obviously do because his plays have been right. Whether someone likes him or not, who cares? The guy worked for a long time in the NBA - no one else on here that I know of has. Anyone on this forum who thinks they know more about how the league operates than him needs to lay off the moonshine in my opinion. There's no point in my ignoring someone who has proven they know what they're talking about as far as picking winners in this year's playoffs is concerned.

When you're bored, check out Donaghy's FB page and look at the discussion board. There's a conversation between him and the guy who owns the aloneinthecorner site from yesterday or the day before. Think his name is Bob. Interesting stuff.

Good luck Donaghy doesn't pick winners ats though just ML winners. I went 16-5 in my first 21 posted playoff plays and it took another 80 plays to show that i was a decent nba capper. he's only picked ml winners for about 20 games which is nothing.

I hope he is right though. I will gladly lose some money on game 6 if necessary just to see Kobe win

Whgat are you talking about? Donaghy has been spot-on all series.

[big joe 1212]

The fix might be on the Celts to win so Stern can shut this guy up!

Yeah but Goat, you mainly live bet. That's a whole different story. Making a play based on what has already happened in the game as opposed to beforehand can't be compared. They're two different things. Neither is more meaningful than the other but they're definitely different. And the majority of guys from what I can tell don't live bet during NBA games on here. Or if they do, they're definitely quiet about it so his insight may be helpful to them as well.

I hope he's right about LA too. Mainly for the money sake since I don't have a favourite team or player in the NBA but also because I know a few of you guys I really like on here want LA to win. And hopefully it would shut up all those guys comparing the Queen to Kobe for awhile because that to me is just bloody ridiculous.

My live bet yesterday was my first live bet of the finals. everything else was pre tip.

[shari91]

He's only made 3 picks from the Finals - the rest of his plays were in other series so that's where his record comes from. So when you're talking about your record outside of the Finals, you will be comparing a large chunk of live bets to his which were all made pre-tip. Either way, we just need to make some damn money on this one.

In Shari's eyes Timmy can do know wrong

Its like she is sleeping with him

He is a compulsive gambler which means he is a compulsive liar

Common Shari STOP

[Brock Landers]

Timmy D knows what the fuk is going on, he picks winners

100% guaranteed this series goes to 7 games, which means LA ML in game 6 is a 100% Guarantee

[big0mar]

Donaghy made me a lot of money when he said after game 3 that the refs were taking too much heat, and the NBA needed a blowout. Notice, that games 4 and 5 both had significantly less fouls called than games 1-3. Its obvious to me that if they aren't blowing the whistles as much, thats a big advantage for the Celtics.

Just because he isn't explicitly saying who exactly will win, doesn't mean he isn't giving you the information.

[PAULYPOKER]

Yes the line was set to manipulate the public onto Boston which is working superbly when realistically the line should be set at -3 if the goal was to draw even action but since the goal is to lead the public to disaster by setting the line at -6...
I will be on the Lakers game 6 unless the action evens out but I do not see this happening,So long story short you can count on game 6 being fixed because the best team will not win which is Boston............

Dallas Mavs were an absolute mortal lock in game 6 down 3-2 in 2006. And they lost.
