Had this disgusted feeling when the Rockets got their asss blown by the Warriors in game 3. I said this or something to this effect..., "i will never lay money on this soft sack of shitt team ever again even if they happen to win game 4 as if it was sort of predictable" then my anger subsided and took Rockets ML in game 4 and they had the game of their life.. 

And it is this same disgusted feeling i had after game 1 of the NBA Finals i said i'm done with it i dont care what happens going forward the officiating ruined the ending for me, and watch the Cavs somehow win game 2 when im not betting on it. 

I have cooled off since then and given it some time...

Cavs 1st quarter +4 
Cavs 1st half +6.5
Cavs 1st half ML +290

CAVS ML +500

Only reason i reconsider is whether Thompson and Love will play or if Iggy is out again otherwise i wouldnt bet. Cant guarantee this will be like Rockets vs Warriors game 4 but i feel the same feeling like i did then. Cant see how this Finals will be interesting down 0-2 again 3 years in a row. I know Warriors go up 2-0, Cavs probably win both at home or split one thats definitely the more predictable route but wouldnt it be far more interesting being tied up 1-1? The league owes the Cavs and apology for that game 1 mess.. its not all on JR. Maybe i jumped the gun and Cavs win game 5 at Golden State but if so then i will miss out on a big payday. This is my last bets of these NBA Finals. I will make a live ML play if 10/1 or more comes up and thats it. 

BOL fellas
Sip on that plus money honey!

Cavs 1st half has the most value imo.Cashed on it last game. GSW is known for their crazy 3q runs so eliminating the 2nd half is nice and sprinkling a little green on ML wouldnt be crazy at all. BOL

That’s funny. You claimed you were fading Dr. John’s pick, yet you’re tailing and citing the exact same logic outlined in the thread

DK, would recommend some +11.5 -105 as well. Strong chance Thompson doesn’t play in this one.

Agreed JPSM, i didnt play the 1st quarter last time i wasnt sure what to expect from Cavs in game 1 so i thought 1st half was more safer. This time im on it, and still sticking to 1st half bets just like last game. Hopefully no Curry buzzer beater to killjoy my ML this time lol.

I am still leaning gsw just so you know. Also that was my line of thinking when I bet on Cle 1st half +6.5 during the 1st game. I think thompson plays this one also.

Nah, forget the spread going straight for the kill. If they cover the points than they should win it outright too, unless we get another corrupt game. If not then oh well. 

That would be helpful if Klay doesnt play. Durant is going to have to do double the load.. he'll have a better game probably but I dont think Curry is going to replicate the same performance in game 1, he'll put up points for sure but will take a little more shots to achieve that. I dony expect Warriors to shoot 51% tonight. That means Warriors role player gonna have to step up more Bell and Young. I think Cavs are in a better spot tonight. Korver and Clarkson need to step it up. 

Im basing my bets off of game 2 of the 2015 NBA Finals. I think it will be a scrappy low score game.

Dr. John initially posted the 1H pick for game, but you already know this.

Further, even if we assume a probability of 50/50 that he plays (current evidence seems to suggest this is generous), a high ankle sprain 2 days later isn’t the kind of injury where if you’re cleared to go, you’re good (i.e. 100%). Such an injury undoubtedly affects mobility and quite likely elevation on his shot.

Exactly why I am on the under. I dont think this goes over.

Maybe Klay does play but playing or not he aint going to be shooting 5 of 10 from 3 pt. like in game 1. Splash Bros came up big in game 1, but remember how everyone talk about Curry be a no-show in these Cavs finals? Expect those talks to resume.... at least for one game. Im expecting Splash Bros to go cold tonight!! Its going to be the KD show!!!

KD vs LBJ, which player will go for 50 tonight? Or both?

This isn’t Dr. John’s first rodeo, nor is there any smoking going on. Also, there is no pretending - DRJ has a doctorate in Econometrics. Why is that hard to believe?

Durant is due for a big one indeed. I don’t see lebron guarding him either so that he can save his heroics for the offensive end. So who guards Durant? JR? If so, Durant should be able to get whatever shot he wants. Love is due as well.....

My guess would be George Hill but what do i know. Yep im seeing  a offensive showdown between KD and Lebron trading baskets. Lebron is going to play 48 min if Cavs are within striking distance

Yes more safer. Warriors are 4-14 in the 1st half in these playoffs when giving 6 pts in the 1st half. They have only lead by more than 6 pts 4 times...... and 1st quarter is almost about the same i believe.. i will have to check again after the game
