If indeed the Spurs are supposed to advance then they take g1. Covering is another issue but i feel in order to not risk them losing the game they should also have a reasonable enough lead to not risk a loss.

1-0

Was all this hoopla about the horrendous officiating in this series just a way to fabricate drama by sending it to a game 7 for revenues? We won't know until the end of this game but I'm sticking to my predictions that Miami will face Lebron & the Cavs in the ECF. So i may likely be going w/ Miami all the way - do it die w/ the Heat? I'm going to have to check ref assignment first this time & see what i decide later.

GSW -8.5

The Heat are 5-3 all time in Game 7 of playoffs series. Additionally, the Heat are 6-1 in their last seven elimination games (including Friday in Charlotte). Down 3-2 in this series after Wednesday's loss, the Heat have come back from a 3-2 series deficit to win series three times, most recently in the 2013 NBA Finals against the Spurs and the 2012 Eastern Conference finals against the Celtics.

Mike Callahan  - Bill Kennedy  - Ed Malloy

Let's see what we have here.


- Mike Callahan is 5-1 for the home team in these playoffs. Miami are 0-1 so far w/ Callahan ref'ing. When this guy refs it's usually a big blow out win and mostly for the home team. Even in the one instance the road team won it was a massive blowout. Who ever wins tomorrow will win by 15+ pts. And it's pointing towards the Heat.

- Bill Kennedy is 1-1 home/road team.

- Ed Malloy 3-1 for the home team. Miami is 1-0 so far w/ Malloy ref'ing.

Combined: 9-3 in favor of the home team


This is fantastic for our Heat play.

So now that we have a little more to work with in regards to a bigger sample w/ individual referees we can now start to determine plays further using officiating stats like i did above w/ the Heat play - wich was SPOT ON! Now we can start reading plays better like hands in poker. Round 2 should be fun.

Thanks tvorog12

And now i'm even more confident about the Heat/Cavs ECF. So we we can now bet accordingly - & supported ref stats can give us even more confidence on top of that.

Also i didn't do a write up for GSW play but again if indeed GSW are supposed to advance they had to take that 1st game in order to not risk anything unnecessarily. Even w/out Curry they covered.


Remember my prediction is:

ECF HEA/CAVS
WCF: SAS/GSW

Finals: GSW/CAVS

We will see how things pan out w/ Curry's injury because that may spoil the leagues plans. Hopefully he's ready to go soon and can be 100% going into the WCF.

We will bet accordingly now as everything is starting to unfold as i had predicted.

Love you, but should we really be counting ML picks in an otherwise very impressive W/L record??

i record EVERYTHING since 2008. Besides if it bothers you that much just subtract it from my record. I haven't played much MLs? Miami must be the 1st one

i know ya cant predict the future obviously.....but im guessing you fully expect curry to return to full health and top form fairly quickly,given that youve got the warriors all the way??....or do you still like your chances if he is slow to recover and gimpy??

But i can....I've predicted alot of things in 4 playoffs now, including future bets Miami future just hit btw 



But seriously......I don't know Curry's status. I haven't even bothered looking up reports or articles. Besides I took GSW to win it all before his injury & will ride it out. Once we find out how good or how bad his injury is then we'll re-access the situation. I'ma take it one series and one game at a time in the mean time.

Adding:

Toronto Raptors vs Miami Heat - Series Winner:

Miami Heat @ $2.40


lol @ the Raptors being $1.57 faves in this series. But i guess that may just be high enough for some to place money on. While Heat odds look rather low books making it look like Raps are the far better team here.

lol but could you imagine a Cavs vs Raptors ECF? compared to a Cavs vs Heat ECF dramatic match up of Lebron vs Wade - previous teammates of the Miami Big-3 era? That story line is EXACTLY what the NBA loves and WILL push for. That's ratings and revenue heaven for Silver. I see no way this match up will not come to fruition.
