Thank you.  I know it's not easy.  Hoping for the best though.  Still undefeated in wagers in this series and the BOS/MIA series.  Talked yesterday about how Boston's bench would come up big for them and  how BOS was going to take it to the hole and light it up from 3 point range then.  Had many people that disagreed with me again and said they can't see how the bench is going to do anything.  No intelligent rebuttals, just a Miami it is then.   As far as this game goes, I am a little more worried about the point total than OKC being able to keep it within double digits.  I teased this game for the extra cushion it will provide, mostly because of the total.  GL to everyone.  This is going to be a game tonight!

No I don't tease in the NBA. Not worth it for me. But, if it is working for you. Keep it up.

  Tell me how you know when a game is going to be close!

Again, I am not claiming to know it all.  I just think that this will be a close game due to how the last games played out.  I believe that OKC can win this series.  They figured out how to keep up with the Spurs in the last two games, so I expect (NOT GUARANTEE), this game to be much closer than how the last ones played out in San Antonio.  Given how good the Spurs play at home though, not really sure if OKC can win this one straight up or if the Spurs will cover the spread, so I figure that the safest bet of all is teasing it so it allows OKC to win or lose by less than double digits.  The under is looking decent as of now, especially with the extra 6 pt. cushion.  I expected a bit more of a defensive effort and turnovers from both sides.

Tough loss today with the teased total missing by 4 points thanks to some huge second half scoring.  Have no leans yet for tomorrow as far as basketball goes.  Have some good leans for baseball, however, so looking forward to that.  Hit a nice little 4 game parlay in baseball to still be at a profit for the evening.  Would have been at a much nicer situation had the under worked, but that is why it is called gambling.  OKC taking this series, so the people that took OKC to win the series when they were down 0-2 are going to be real happy.  Again GL to everyone and hope Tuesday is a better day to all the people that shared in my loss for the basketball game :-)

BB5 - I don't believe in teasers in NBA.  The total variance is way too great (compared to football).  

Anyways - I enjoy your posts so keep it up.
