#1 Posted: 5/14/2012 5:51:25 PM I took OKC -1.5 games at -140 -- didn't want to lay the significant juice for OKC to win the series straight up, and instead of laying -460 for OKC to win, I get OKC at -140 for them to win either 4-0, 4-1, or 4-2. I think 4-1 and 4-2 are very real possibilities, and the only way I end up losing is if (a) LAL wins the series or (b) it goes seven. I think that getting everything but those two scenarios for -140 is a solid price.

#2 Posted: 5/14/2012 5:54:21 PM I can't see Lakers losing G6 @ Staples - or, on the flip side, the Thunder winning G6. I'd take Thunder -2.5 games or Thunder -0.5 games. |

#7 Posted: 5/14/2012 7:13:44 PM Honestly, its hard for one to say whether it will go 5 - 6 or 7and beating the Lakers is not going to be easy.. Not at all
If you think and are quite sure the Thunder will advance the only bet to make is 460 - and the reason I say this is that if Thunder wins in 7 which is more likely than them winning in 6 - lakers do not lose at home bro in post season much- say its 2-2 then game 5 thunder win then its back to LA for game 6 - LA wins,, and your screwed..
thunder have to steal a game in LA for you to win your bet.. and they are very tough at home.. Also Lakers beat the thunder in OKC without Bynum and Artest in the last week of the season so they are a dangerous road team now.. they did beat Denver in Denver when they had to. GL |

You do understand that the line moved 7 cents AGAINST you and not with you right?
Saying you moved the line (while obviously not true anyway) makes no sense here  |

#9 Posted: 5/14/2012 7:20:31 PM Well unless the books think so little of your action that they move the line the other way after you bet.
Just sayin. |

#10 Posted: 5/14/2012 7:27:56 PM I do understand, Weathered. The comment was made in jest, there is just not a font to reflect sarcasm yet.

#13 Posted: 5/14/2012 10:49:25 PM Great bet. OKC will win every home game and will win one in LA and will finish the series in 5 games most likely and 6 max.
