I know its guarantee but doesn't sound right.
The guarantee is that you should not bet anything large here at all. This is a tough game to call. You can base it on whatever you want in the past. You might as well flip a coin because you don't know who will win. Quick notes. For spurs backers You are better off with wade in. More liable to suck then miller or Allen to miss. You don't have to worry about bad memories. These are professionals and the core are veterans. Heats has trouble mounting back to back wins. Parker, ginobili and green did bad but yet they almost had the game. For heat backers Lebron shows up in big games and will relish this. Allen got his shooting touch back. Jesus shuttlesworth. Wade over all been playing better as of late bit that injury could take away his explosiveness. They closed out pacers well, should repeat itself? At the end of the day you can't go wrong with either play but spurs has been playing like the BETTER team. They both want this badly. Both teams are hungry. My $$$ is on the spurs 1st half and all game. Why? Great teams bounce back. This will be a slow game. Its going to be a lot of parker teardrops and Duncan's bank shot from the angles. I believe more that the shooters for spurs will do a bit better... (Even a free throw better). Green didn't get as many shots due to good D but ginobili did and was hesitant after a few misses. Parkers balls just didn't get the bounce.

Playoffs.
Throw away stats and throw away trends. Every team, every person has something to prove.

Just saying...
Lebron is the only consistent scorer. Wade should get his 18 but not sure how efficient he can be for the heats. IMO it comes down to role players. Up to Chalmers and udonis to support the scoring. Up to bosh and Anderson to defend and get boards as much as possible. I been watching this series and I find it either smart or just luck that when heats are on offense with bosh on the floor vs hibbert, you ever notice bosh is usually on top of the key or on the perimeter? It looks like that's the only way they want the match up when hibbert is in. Hibbert is half the time too far away for the defensive board which will rely on west right pick them up |

Same thoughts from above.
Game 1, 3, and 5 are "pivitol" when all tied up. Heats has always taken those pivitol games but not easily. Heats got 1 good win and that's when bosh was shooting 3's and udonis going for 8/9 at one point. As the series prolongs each teams grows accustomed to each other and deeper in the series you can see what's going on. Throw everything aside. Both teams are hungry for this game. Both are just as emotional so it comes down to the very basics of each teams weakness and strengths. Miami's pick and roll and jump shots versus Indiana all around defense and size in hibbert/west. Hibbert has been on fire which his 20-10 double doubles (average) this series. Again my money is on pacers with the point but this time I will play ML as well since they are +350 in my book

The line at -7.5 Miami tells everyone that there's little respect for pacers. Its baiting you to take pacers or Miami for a small play. Either way you can't go big on either side. There's one thing I do know. Size matters. Pacers got the size but hears got the speed and the shooters.
I'm sure if anyone has watched Miami games then everyone k hows that their biggest weakness is rebounding and its due to their lack of size... But that's also their greatest strength. They can push the ball and run around the court. I don't know if anyone can take either side and be more than 75% confident on a sure win but from year of gambling I learned that anything can happen (last night spurs game... Ouch). For game one I'm taking the points. This game is which mismatch will prevail. Take care of the boards and protect the rim to force Miami to be a jump shooting team. Miami can make shots but for how long. Its a 48 minute game. Honestly, can Shane b. Slow down hibbert? I think Tyson is a better defender or in the same level as Shane. But also same thing for James. Who can slow him down? |

NO. Memphis has no answers for anything. Its worse from yesterday. Same story like yesterday. Memphis will get a mini run mid 2nd half and then spurs show up to close up. Spurs bench is a lot better than Memphis bench.
My opinion is let it ride or double up on spurs +2

I'm really liking the hawks under game. Celtics on rd on a back to back!! They will start slow and end slow. Atlanta has done a poor job scoring against decent defensive teams. They have an OK defense. What I like us that both teams takes a lot of time to set their plays. They also take a lot of jumpers.
This is a perfect set u for under seeing celtics in this spot. Celtics has a way to make their opponent playing slow in their type of game. If they are down 2 or down 12, they will run their game plan and never shoot a forced 3. Pierce is doing better but on a back to back and on the rd, I'm hoping those tired legs and his team just miss a lot of shots. This is NBA. Anytime in any minute, points can be put up. I remember seeing 4 3 pointers in a row in a minute.

This game will remind us of Okc vs Denver a few days ago. This will go down the wire. Unfortunately I think Denver is a better team then gsw. David lee will see a lot of Ibaka and Perkins. I think this game will go under first half half but sparks will fly second half.
Side is hard to say but should be OKC IMO

Okc should win here if... They can knock down those 3's again. Only problem is so can gsw. And warriors at home. This should be a close game. I think it should go over but the total is a bit high. For me, OKC or no play. Not betting against thunders. They too dam hot

I don't feel comfortable on your warriors pick. Wouldn't it be wiser to pick over?

I'm only liking the hornets of all your plays. Hornets looking a LOT better the last 5-10 games. They look like a hungry team. I say it's hornets or no play. That or over.

Under! Without a confident guard play a slow tempo game should be in order. Of course u never know.. Bledsoe could step up and make crazy behind passes and lobs

I played bucks for +1 medium. Only reason I play bucks is because Ellis and Jennings to do a lot better 2nd half. Philly does lay better in 2H but I think this road game bad match up for them

Irrelevant. If he plays he will not be at 100% and Westbrook will have a field day. If he doesn't its a gamble on Eric Bledsoe. That also means means one less bench player and a 3rd string back up for PG?
I'm expecting a big night from Westbrook. It's one of the rare time we will see Westbrook have his way. I'm expecting 50% FG and 30+ points.

Did you see the game lac vs gsw? Jump shots killed lac. We know Durand and Westbrook will get points but if Ibaka and others gets their shots to fall... Lac will be in a long for a long night.
What good is size if you can't use it against an opponent?

I would not do that. We make worse decisions when we are down a lot. There's another game another day in a week every month except summer.
When I win a lot I tend to slow it down so if I lose a lot I would also slow it down.

Howard was not a factor. Howard can't play D. Raptors shooting jumpers that lakers can't defend.
