  • NBA Playoffs

    Anyone notice that every single West playoff team had at least 50 wins? The East only had 3 at 50+...the 3 division winners. Nobody else was even close to 50 wins. The Hawks make it with only 37 wins...8 games under .500 and Golden State misses at 14 games over .500. What a disparity of talent. HOWEVER....the East still has the best team!

    I haven't seen any NBA Playoff picks here. Is there another part of the website that I don't know about or is nobody interested? I wasn't too interested myself but have been following them. I made my first bet on 5/2 for Utah -3.5 2nd H vs Houston and won so that peaked my interest a little and gave me some money to play with. Counting that bet I've done pretty well at 7-2 with a combination of full game, HT and in-running bets. Those 'in-running' bets are kinda cool as one team can jump out to a big lead giving you a nice value on the other team. Anybody else making out?

      Well I guess no one else is betting NBA
      Anyway, in the semi-finals so far, the teams that had to start out on the road and took a beating, i.e. Orlando, San Antonio...came back strong at home in the first game so I'm expecting Utah to do the same.
      Utah -5 tonite hopefully

        For some inexplicable reason, Utah was a -0 in-running bet at the 1st Q 11-11 score so I jumped on that also.

          With the Jazz up by 9 at the half, I'll take the Lakers -1 for the 2nd half. I can partially hedge my other bets and still possibly win all 3

          So now I've basically got
          Utah -0
          Utah -5
          Lakers +8

            Unbelievable.....Boozer misses both FT's with under 3 seconds left or I win all 3 bets. Oh well, 2 wins and a push.

              NBA

              I had the jazz as well last night. Boozer was unbelievable at the line last night. He looked pretty nervous for an all NBA pick in a relatively low pressure spot.

              2 nite- I like the Cavs. I figure at home they will hit their jump shots and that will open the door for Lebron to have a big game and the cavs to get the victory. Also I want to see the Celts step up on the road before I take them

              I am also going to take the Magic/Pistons over...

                Well, I'm going to go against my semi-final plan and go with Boston, but I'll stick with Orlando. Wallace being out for Cleveland will hurt their defense and I don't think Boston will take Cleveland as lightly as they did Atlanta. If Boston comes to play I don't think there's much the Cavs can do about it. I'll take Orlando again, especially with Billups out for Detroit.
                Boston +2
                Orlando -5

                Good luck!

                    The 'in-running' bet saves me again with Orlando +3. Hopefully it will do so again. With Boston down 22-8 I got Boston +8.5.

                          Ben Wallace was reported to be out all the way up to game time. Instead he plays a major role. You can't trust anything now days.
