Lot of points for a must win game involving the defending champs! They will leave everything on the court and popovich will re-think his decision not to give one of his playmakers the ball at the end. IMO SA covers.GLTA

kobe does not slip in close out games... the public is loving the spurs... i'm going to watch that line and if it stays still as the spurs money rolls in i'm pounding the lakers... yesterday left a horrible taste in my mouth... i should be rolling in the dough by now... fuckin' choke-ass boston played worse than a parapalegic high school team.

Come on SA fans let me here you. If you are a smart capper, you know what is coming. Did anyone see Duncan travel and slam the ball with no call. That was BS and it won't happen in LA. LA is ready to rip them apart because the lakers want to show boston/detroit what kind of scoring machine they are. No bull shit totals of 176. You want to beat the lakers, you will have to score at least 100 points. But wait, LA has "D" and nobody is talking about that. So I say onnce again, "LAKER SHOW." Magic Johnson era was SHOWTIME and now Kobe says LAKER SHOW........... I would say good luck to all, but no luck plays a role here.......

despite this thread, heavy money is on the spurs (according to sportsbook) ... 76% ATS and a whopping 90% on the ML... if this continues and no movement happens with that spread, i'm all over it. I've really felt like SA was over it this year. Even Phoenix should have beat them if they weren't so good at beating themselves. The only reason SA beat the horny's is cuz they went cold as hell in the second half which i chalk up to inexperience and game 7 nervousness, two things the spurs are miles past. If NO plays their game like they did in games 1, 2, and 5, they'd be squaring off with the lake show right now and they'd probably be putting up a better fight than the spurs are... looking to see how lakers do in close out games over the last decade or so... (primarily the kobe era) ... back with more later...

wang... pretty sure you are gonna find that the Lakers have been very good in closeout games over that time... and you could also search how the Bulls did when Phil was there, and pretty sure you see the same result...
i have bet the under every game in this series and i am tempted to back off on this one, just because odds say it will go over... but the Spurs have been so bad offensively on the road... i mean is it just a case of the books and the public setting the total way too high on this series? can they all go under?

One thing I know about betting sports ALWAYS TAKE THE POINTS IN A CLOSEOUT GAME!! I think the line is set to high because the books know that as the day goes on all the Laker backers are going to take it. I want to do a little more research but common 8 points. Its the highest line yet in the closeout game. hmmm

I got burnt on a big bet with Boston -6 yesterday. I talked myself out of doing ML after reading the thread saying how much of a risk it was.
I will not do the same mistake again. I am with Kong in this one since Spurs have backs against the wall and will keep it close. I dont think they will win but it will be close.

............................................................................... Posted: 5/28/2008 5:40:40 PM i don't bet
basketball often, but after a few beers monday, i put like 8 units on
detroit - bam!; then i was hooked, so last night i slam LAL for one
unit - bam! 2-0 with my first 2 nba wagers.
now all my info and
gut says take detroit +6 and the over. but everyone and their brother
is on boston and the under. i should just take my winnings and sit out
til football season, i know. but, alas, i am a gambler, it's my hobby,
it's what i do to feel alive. so, just like any degenerate, i will
press my luck with det +6 and the over 174. maybe someone will make a
post calling me a genius later on tonight... could be matrixx 2.0 nor
something ...................................................................................
