Hey fellas,

Season: 114-103-7

Well CC is smashing the playoffs, he went 2-0 yesterday and 1-0 the day before i believe. Well done mate, keep it up.

My thoughts

Wizards @ Raptors
Tough game to call,the Raptors really were pathetic in the 1st game. 2 years in a row I have lost money on this team playing at home in their first playoff game. Last season, they hit back against a Nets team after a game #1 loss. They won 100-95 so it wasn't easy at all. As for the Wizards, this game is massive. They have the potential to go back home and be up 2-0. I think I will pass on this game.

Celtics @ Cavs
Really like the Celtics in this game to cover the +11. I know Cavs are in playoff mode and the crowd was pumping but if it wasn't for the final 2 F/T's in game one, the Celtics would have pushed or covered depending on what line you got. Love Brad Stevens and what he has done with this Celtics team. I think they keep it close and don't make the same errors as game #1. Plus I have a SDQL that points towards the Celtics

Mavs @ Rockets
My boys crushed me in game #1, i broke my rule. I went against them. NEVER AGAIN!!!!! I love the over. What do these numbers represent? 237, 215, 215, 226, 236 & 226? They represent game totals in Rockets home games (vs the West) when the total is 210 or higher. Both teams in game #1 showed no defense, I think we see a similar result game #2. I am waiting for the total to hopefully dropped down a bit.

BOL today fellas...

2-0 yesterday to get to 7-9

under 207 Celtics/Cavs I watched that 1st game and the pace was redonk, Lebron just bullied his way to the basket time after time with no call, lots of stupid fouling (44-55FT) and hucked up many a prayer 3 ball (21-53) both well over their avg's. I think C's are in a similar spot Pelicans were in battling last week of season to get 8th spot and now are spent. I see a similar low scoring result. I think road teams down 0-1 can't get in a running match again so tend to slow the pace down.

over 191 Wiz/Raps how can anyone trust the Hippies on the road off a win and in party town Toronto no less? I love the fact that we have 4 fast playing guards and the door is wide open for an avalanche of FT. I think Wiz playing with house money should allow for a free flowing game and Raps should put up a shot every 7 seconds.

GL folks

I liked your thoughts on the UNDER yesterday and then you went OVER instead. 

With the Mavs game you went one game to early for backing the dog. This is the game for Mavs and i think they will make it for a SU win.

Im also liking Boston to cover tonight and Under 207 as well. Same reasons as for the Bucks UNDER yesterday. 

For the Raptors game i do like the OVER and especially Lowry to go OVER. He did not look satisfied with him self the other night. 
 
Good luck to you Aussie and im looking forward to read your thoughts ( if they do not come to late for me here in the European time zone )

I kinda like Wagerman's plays. Not sure about the last game: Dallas is a funny team: Dirk is old, Rondo is a headcase, Ellis is a punk. Remember how they lost to GSW as a number #1 seed with a 60+ win season ? That was fun to watch ( and b/c I was not betting back then it was really a lot more fun to watch). I think I might just watch that game. Right now, I am not watching many games b/c I am betting on them.

Celtics @ Cavs: Celtics +11

Love what Stevens has done with this young fearless team. I think Cavs will take an early lead, and then Celtics play catch up and cover. I have always stated this year that the Cavs have the worst bench in the league. Game 1 saw their bench hit 29 points (3 above ave) and for Celtics, their bench hit 55 points thanks to Thomas's 22. LBJ and Irving played 40+ mins in game 1, I think we see them play a little less mins in this game and the Cavs bench get more mins and potentially keep the Celtics in the game

GL mates,

I'll try first halfs today, I like boston and dallas to cover 1st halfs, and toronto cover against spread

so boston +6.5, dallas +3.5 and toronto -3, I am trusting all teams that need a win here, and to increase my chances I'll take first halfs today, hoping teams with leads will start slow (in a relaxed mood having 1-0 lead)

Mavs @ Rockets: Over 214

As stated above, 237, 215, 215, 236 and 226 represent totals that the Rockets have had this season when at home vs the West with a total of 210 or higher. I don't see McHale changing much with game plan from game #1 and the Mavs could not defend the Rockets in anyway. Harden gets to the free throw line so many times and is a very good FT shooter so that also adds to the points tally. Think we see something like 114-107 or similar.

All good Wagers.... we shall find and out see at the end of the game.

Nice hit BTW on under in Celtics/Cavs game both Wagers and Erich.. 

Who would have predicted that the Hippies go back home 2-0 up in the series and have the potential to sweep the Raptors? WOW.. I think Raptors ATS is the play in game #3.

Yeah what happened to Mak? That guy was great for insight and knowing almost every team inside and out. He just vanished.

Initial thoughts for tomorrow?

I lean Hawks -10, and Spurs +1.5. Really think Pop tore his Spurs a new ahole after their pathetic appearance the other day. Kind of strange, but if my boys win today, we are looking like having all teams 2-0 up in their series apart from the games tomorrow.

Also like Hawks/Nets over 202 tomorrow as well... Hawks could easily hit 100+ in that game and the Nets need to make up the difference.
