    Boston will NOT cover
    The Cavs may even win outright. Im tired of seeing everyone talking about how the Celts are gonna win by 20. Just wait and see everyone. Boston will not cover.

    I will wager a week of not posting with anyone on Cleveland +9.5. If anyone wants the Celtics, let me know. Loser cant post for a week. Any takers?

      Kellen I want to take the Celts but can't do it. Seems like a good one for me to sit out and try snagging a soft halftime line.

          The Cavaliers are going to take game 1 in Boston..?



          They'd have a better shot of stealing game 1 if the Celtics swept the Hawks and were over rested and maybe a tad too high on themselves.

            real question is. will boston beat the cavs at home by 10 or more 55% of the time. if your anwser is yes... than your cavs bet is garbage and u will lose long term. i believe the anwser is yes sir.

              Crazy, you up for the wager? You want Boston -9.5? Loser doesnt post for a week?

                Just like the Wizards were going to take out the Cavs?


                I have tried warning you Pat, Lebron is too good and will be in the NBA Finals

                  If you're so confident in the Cavaliers to win outright, as you keep alluding to, why do you even need points..?

                      I never said they WOULD win outright. I said several times, It wouldnt suprise me, and they MAY win outright. But there is no way Boston covers this game.

                        There is no reason for him to bet. He can sit out and ride on MJF's back. No cost to him.

                          the cavs beat a flat lazy wizards team. look at their roster vs bostons roster. look at the matchups. lebron will need to score 75 for them to win this game

                              Good luck Kellen...I would absolutely love for the Cavs to be up by 8 or 9 at the break.

                                Thanks Dio, I cant wait to see this thread at the end of the game. When Boston doesnt cover, everyone will be saying there were bad calls and so and so got lucky and all this. Only maybe a couple posters will actually congratulate me on getting it right.

                                  No offense Kel, but you're on the wrong side of this one, hope you luck out and win it though. Cavs are fixin to get annihilated.

                                    They may not cover (personally think they will)... but they will win this series

                                      I figured if Pat Venditto is on the Celtics, Im all good. Easy cash.

                                                and Boston has showed some nerves in prior tight playoff games

                                                so cavs could pull it out

                                                would not be suprised

                                                    Hawks get out in transition a lot more than the Cavs. Even though the Cavs have the almighty BLING "CAN'T HIT A FT" JAMES, I think this match up is better for Boston. If there was any "look past while we cruise to the finals" mentality, that 7 game series knocked that right out of them.

                                                    I'm not going to say they cover every huge spread thrown their way, but I've loaded up on them for the series price because I think there's strong value there at -700..

                                                        boston played flat all series. they were not playing up to expectation until game 7. i dont have a wager on the celtics this is a pass for me im gonna analyze how the game goes so i can make a better decision for game 2. again good luck on the cavs but i think long term its a bad pick.

If there was any "look past while we cruise to the finals" mentality, that 7 game series knocked that right out of them.

                                                          I'm not going to say they cover every huge spread thrown their way, but I've loaded up on them for the series price because I think there's strong value there at -700..
                                                          So what???

                                                          Hawks still suck

                                                          that's why they won only 37 games

                                                            Kellen, I thought MJF was against you when he said he agreed. I thought he was agreeing to the bet. I guess Crazyl will have to take it if he wants you gone for a week.

                                                              I'm on Cleveland +9.5 myself tonight, but I think this is a SU Win/No cover for the Celts and I still think Boston wins the series in 5.

                                                                i dont like -700 thats disgusting chalk. this bet has to win 88% of the time just to BREAK EVEN.

                                                                -700 (risk $100 wins 14.29) 88%

                                                                of course celtics will sweep imo but still theres little to no edge at that price if any edge.
