The sentence that reads: They will also take spread, ML and they may be nice.....I meant for first half.

We had won 9 in a row and in our last 23 bets, we went 20-3. 
20-3!  Regardless of what happens going forward, great run. Time to start a new one. It starts soon. I'm going to start posting live bets going forward as well.

Am I reading the second half spread correctly? Cavs-13?

At +1350 Boston ML before tip and 70% on the Celtics ML bet, are the books going to pay back every cent of what they just took which was a ton..... by allowing the Celtics to win tonite? Hmmmmmm.......

Yep!

Now Cleveland just needs to cover three and NOT fifteen and a half.

Tread carefully Cleveland backers because you could lose twice

Again, books gonna pay out all that ML money to 70% Boston backers when they just took everything from the public? I don't know if the books allow that buddy.

Trust me....The big money was once again with Cleveland and or the money line

No big money was slapped down on the Celtics Not nearly as much as placed on Cleveland.

Well.....I said we'd get that loss back and we did.....tonite. I smelled this second half line a mile away. Glad the Cavs woke up. The "W" train is back in service! Let's keep her moving in the right direction. 

49-29 playoffs now

Golden state will be the overwhelming favorite and rightfully so but does durant get gifted year one after leaving OKC for the powerhouse known as the warriors? Lebron didn't get gifted year one in Miami or cleveland. He paid his dues and it's hard for me to think that durant doesn't have to go through that same path. Everybody will be sleeping on the cavs yet again this year. Why though? Because have supposedly "struggled against the celtics? Yeah, well, they "struggled" last year against the raptors too. 

As for futures, this isnt the year to do a future. The odds aren't great like they were when I grabbed the cavs at +475 early playoffs last year. I will most likely bet the finals solely game by game. Last year was unreal because I collected in games, 5, 6 and 7 and collected on two futures bets on the cavs. It was mighty delightful.  I'm not locked in just yet because warriors are rollin so again, game by game seems best. 

Crazy thing is this: we've never seen a team go 16-0 in the playoffs and that's been in the back of my mind for about a week. Dubs had NBA's best record last year but had to roll over for the cavs which I'm sure was very tough to swallow. What a way to redeem themselves by making history in the playoffs and more losing a game. It COULD happen and if dubs do take both at home, it is something to watch. I doubt it happens because it could leave a lot of money on the table but it would be a phenomenal script after last year, wouldn't it? Something to watch. Can't wait.

Celtics are harder to defend that the Warriors- Tyrone lue. Ladies and gentlemen, here we go. The media bs and the pawns and the chess game begins. Will people now jump on the celtics bang wagon tonite because of this comment? Will more people now be in the warriors considering they will feel as if this is a snack in the face to the warriors? There is intent with this comment but understand....going forward, seeds are going to be planted here to fill the bettors mind. Be careful! The media is at work again and it's gonna get really good!

Great job Achilles, you are a mighty fine poster. 

Gl with the finals. I agree with yall on the gift stuffs. Gs was gifted Durant and a perfect 16-0 so Cavs will most likely be gifted the cake.
