Over/Under amount of threads made on how Lebron sucks after the game?
I post the total at 43.
If you would like to be apart of the nearly 80% of bets on the Heat, be my guest. Vegas will wipe it's behind with the money they take from you tonight.
Good day, gentleman.

i have seen you say that a few times to many different posters and the game not gone your way... what does 80% of the public have to do with anything? has a team never covered when that many people were on one side? |

#7 Posted: 5/17/2012 10:05:38 AM You guys think it will be that easy? The fact that the Pacers aren't favored today is a friggin joke. The spread should be Pacers -3. However, if the Pacers were favored by 3, this would lead to people questioning why the Heat are dogs. More people are betting them because they are favorites. Don't you guys understand this? Wake up and smell the garbage.

#10 Posted: 5/17/2012 10:19:38 AM this handicap is somewhat similar to the okc dallas game 4 where dallas
was at home. then okc was giving like 1.5 then public pounding okc. |

Not even close, whatsoever. Keep trying, buddy.

#12 Posted: 5/17/2012 10:33:10 AM Indiana for me as well. -1 +122. A lot of things here make Indiana valuable imo-a fair line here is Indiana -3.5. The Pacers were +6.5 in Game 2 and that line proved to not value Bosh enough, so subtract another point off that 6.5 to make a more justifiable line of 5.5 and go from there. 4.5 off Miami for losing homecourt, +4.5 to Indiana for gaining it, you're left with Indiana -3.5. Thats a fair line here, Vegas won't dog Miami that much because they simply haven't done it all year and they know they're not losing a single Miami backer by favoring them so no reason to just dangle a +ml. This is the least valuable bet of the entire playoffs so far, Miami is a two man team right now and Indiana is completely confident that they can win the series at this point. The Heat's role players played very very poorly in Miami, I don't see a ton of reasons why they'll turn it around from being F- in Miami to being A+ in Indiana which they need to be to get a road win at this point. Indiana played like absolute dogshit in Game 2 and stole homecourt, like I already said they're carrying confidence now and are bound to play better at home from an efficiency standpoint. This whole "well Wade was angry in the postgame and the flagrant fouls and technicals and Miami won't lose two in a row" stuff, that's loser mentality to me, it's completely meaningless. I'm probably still in the minority here, but I see Indiana holding serve at home rest of the way and winning this thing in 6.

#13 Posted: 5/17/2012 10:35:28 AM Im hoping that the line will go up to 2 so I can get a ML from the sportsbooks. Im surprised that a lot of the good cappers are even falling into the trap with Miami |

#17 Posted: 5/17/2012 11:23:37 AM Haha you sound pretty confident on Indiana... BOL to you, but it sounds like you're only choosing Indiana because everyone else is on Miami. You keep saying 80% of the public is on Miami. I just find it very hard for "the public" to beat Miami. Covering lines is one thing, but if they're planning on fixing the game and screwing the public, then Vegas has a very very small window. I just can't see Miami losing Game 3, unless another injury comes into play.
Good luck to you and everyone else on Indiana. I would love to see Indiana go up 2-1 on the Heat. I just can't put my money on that happening.... |

#18 Posted: 5/17/2012 11:27:44 AM -1.5 for Heat seems too easy and we all know what happens when it too easy...

Again, I ask, what's your reasoning? Miami has two players and theytr great especially James. Wade did miss a layup in the clutch cause he's older than six years ago, obviously. Indiana is eight deep, |

Good Luck...Playing your MLB Plays... Your right. Indiana is simply a better team than Philly. However, Indians lack of experience fully supports Miami backers. This Miami team without bosh is not as strong as last years heat. |

If anything Indiana would be too easy considering Indiana just beat Miami at Miami and now getting points.
Almost same scenario as the 76ers and Boston game. |

You clearly don't understand how odds makers work. Home court is worth 6 points. The most the pacers could ever be favored in this game is -1 as they were at the open.
