What makes you think they can?

Stop betting series bets

No.

History doesn't either, no team has ever come back from this deficit to win finals.

Tchocky · 06-15-08, 08:04 PM

Highly unlikely but it's your money. I think the Celtics +270 for tonight is a better bet.

Tsoprano · 06-15-08, 08:04 PM

Its great values for the books' pockets.

Donate that money to JJ's church.

pat venditto · 06-15-08, 08:04 PM

because kobe will be shooting every shot and will probably control the game. expect kobe to score 40+ tonight

pat venditto · 06-15-08, 08:05 PM

im not betting it. im just saying it could happen

BeatTheJerk · 06-15-08, 08:05 PM

If it's "serious value", why aren't you?

BeatTheJerk · 06-15-08, 08:07 PM

now that was a totally unexpected occurrance that happen back in 04

pat venditto · 06-15-08, 08:07 PM

because im betting to win and its value but it is unlikely. as u can see im being very selective with my bets and only have bet 2 games besides a .25 unit parlay and im up 3.89 units so far.

You would actually win more money if you bet tonight's game against the spread and games 6 & 7 moneyline. Of course the Lakers will not win 3 games in a row, especially 2 in a row at the Garden! Unless David Stern orders the refs to make it so.

Red Sox beat the Yankees in baseball
Giants beat the pats in football
why not have the Lakers pull another upset and beat the Celtics.

I am still holding on to my ticket for the lakers to win the series.

Apparently those miracles only happen when it's Boston vs. New York...not LA. The Lakers don't have adequate leadership to comeback from a 3-1 deficit. Face it, they couldn't even hold a 24 point lead at HOME in game 4. I don't think you'll have to throw that ticket away until after game 6 though.

rake922 · 06-16-08, 03:38 PM

This didn't even move with lakers win in game 5

Tsoprano · 06-16-08, 03:46 PM

I knew this would be bumped with a laker win, This bet is not a winner. So once again, there is no value.

Its over for the Lakers

They never had a chance

2-3-2 format is double HFA for BOS

LAL plays no Defense, too soft, too lazy. I blame PJ for that

They do not have a HC, Phil Jackson is so overrated.

I took BOS +145 to win the series, and I will stay with my pick.
