I think this looks pretty good.

It looks good, I have a funny feeling the Lakers pull this one out tonight though.Originally posted by crazylהמוסד

If the celtics win that win pretty much be a for sure winner.Can't see the game going over that in BostonComment -
Looks solid on paper but I wouldn't bet against NBA's preference of a game 7 final.Comment -
now that you brought this up i wouldnt feel too bad doing
lakers +10
under 196Comment -
If there was something good on, I'd make the bet and watch something else. Something about watching how playoff basketball is officiated just infuriates me.Originally posted by pavyracerComment -
I like the lakers +10 and under better yaComment -
I'm on the Lakers +5 tonight and really think they pull it off and force a game 7 while getting their first cover of the series...that is if there isn't a huge FT disparity in favor of the Celts.Comment -
Lakers +10 and under seems even easier IMO.
That is why I would prefer teasing Celts and under.Comment -
??? im lost...so are you expecting a celtics blow out by more than 10 points or think the lakers could keep it within a single digit deficit?Originally posted by crazylComment -
Are you guys seriously thinking about teasing a total in basketball?Comment -
I just don't like making plays that seem too easy. Yeah, I can see why Lakers getting 10 looks to be a much safer type of bet, with the under included. That's kind of why I don't like it. I can see Celts cruising through the game, then getting backdoored, or I can see Lakers winning the 1st half and Boston pulling away late.Originally posted by Quebb Diesel
With Boston at home though, I think it's better to err on the side of caution. Boston by 11 wouldn't surprise me at all, so I would rather take them to win by 1pt.Comment -
I don't usually, but there's no other basketball game or football game to tease it with. Not like you can just tease the side by itself, you know? Plus I think Under is more likely to begin with.Originally posted by PanicComment -
Teasing a total in BB is like a crap shoot. I have never understood why a tease on BB total is 4\5 points when there is typically 150-200 points yet on FB you get 6 points and your lucky if the total hits 40 or 50. Thats probably on average 2% of the total in BB and almost 12% on FB. I hate totals in general on BB as the last 2 minutes in most cases decides the bet. So you stress for 46 minutes only to see your outcome in the final 2.Comment -
Understandable. But teasing this game and having to include a total is suicide. Teasing a total in any basketball game is suicide. The worse thing is, since there are no other games to choose, your hand is forced here. Why not just pick what you like and roll with it? If you like the under, go with it, why add the side into the mix? Just my opinion, either way, GL.Originally posted by crazylComment -

You need give thanks to the "experts" on this board. Your under is most likely screwed. Never tease a BB total, never.Comment -
Yeah, the point was though there's no other games on the board that are teasable, so if one had to pick I think the under was still the higher % play tonight.Originally posted by ematComment -
Expert here.
Saved you money. Consider it a birthday present.
Happy B-Day, Bro.

Then you made the correct call and stayed away. Too many good bets out there in a given day to sweat one out like you almost always do on a teased BB total. Good call by holding off.Originally posted by crazylComment -
