Like I said all day....I just couldn't imagine the jazz covering this game. Especially when the dubs had only covered 3 of the 7 games before this one tonite. They were due for some bulldozing. They get rest and leave an outstanding taste in people's mouths with a beatdown on an average team. When the dubs wanna play, they play. Tonite was one of those nites. Dray, curry, okay all step up tonite. No surprise. Congrats dubs backers.

Congrats, AC. BTW I don't know if you remember I called you out during NFL play offs because of the a*zz Guitar Guy. I apologize. You are a great contribution to this forum

JDE, it's all good amigo. We all have our moments; the man upstairs knows I've had mine in here. Deep down, I'm here to make money, and do what I can to help others make money. I have my good runs and i have my bad runs. Im trying to stay the course though. I've learned a lot from a few guys who I communicate with on here and I feel they've set good examples on how to be in here and how not to be in here. I see you in other threads and you are a stand up guy; very respectful; so no need to ever apologize man. I get heated from time to time but that's the passion speaking brotha. We're all a work progress, right? I appreciate the message amigo and good luck going forward.

Going against the grain here. Expectations are that the Spurs just dominate after getting beatdown game 4. Makes sense. Spurs may be the full game play but if the rockets are to be in this game, they need to start quick on the road. I'm looking for harden to come out strong and I think the pace will favor them early. I could be wrong but I want to see if the rockets are focused first quarter. I think they are. Let's get after it!

Wow. To go 8 in a row and then lose this bet like that? 4 missed free throws and a missed layup by Lou? An iffy call on harden at the end in the bonus when the defender is draped in him from half court to the free throw line? Bad luck. Rockets first quarter was definitely the right bet there. Gotta make 2 of those 4 free throws and it cashes. Oh well.

Took a live bet @ 2:59 with sour sauce down 96-93. +110 Spurs.Rewind it if anybody doesn't believe me. Kawhi on the bench for the last play? OT. Come on Spurs.

How is that not a basket for the Spurs?!!!! And better yet, in OVERTIME, EVERY PLAY SHOULD BE REVIEWABLE, NO?! Nobody can deny that that wasn't basket interference. Then they hit a 3?! Disgusting.

Let's call a spade a spade here. Officials are garbage in the OT. Basket interference = 2 points taken away and then the off arm of harden pushes off AGAIN and no call? That results in a 3 pointer. That's 5 points the officials have given the rockets. You can't argue it. Finish it Spurs

I normally don't count these but this one I am. Ginobili! Spurs with kawhi on the bench baby! Wow! The "W" train is back up and running. If anybody follows, I know my plays are usually late, apologies as I've said before. That's how I do. I know with the live bet, it's hard to tail or fade so hopefully there were some Spurs winners on live bets tonite.

8 games between the wiz and celts and all 8 games.....the home team has won. Series tied at 2....winner of game 5 wins the series 83% of the time. We keep hearing both from the media. So for those who are new to this game.....remember these stats in the rockets/Spurs series and in the wizards/celts series because I'd be willing to bet that at least one of those stats fall here going forward before we hit the conference finals. All sesson last year, including the playoffs last year, we heard the media pound into our heads that the dubs don't lose back to back ever. Well, correct....they didn't until games 5,6 and 7. Three in a row and two were in golden state. Coincidence? To many yes....to me, part of the plan. Plant the seed, let it grow and then in a big game, see it die. It will be interesting to see how these series play out knowing these stats.

The money is surprisingly on the wizards here first half and considering the wizards have started quick the majority of this series, I'm going to fade that trend along with the public. Thomas has to get out to a fast start and push the envelope and crowder needs to step it up. He's been too on and off. I like the Celtics to start off quick and I think they are leading by 4 or 5 at half. I could be wrong here but let's see what transpires. The "W" train is fueled and ready to roll. Hopefully we can keep her moving in the right direction! Let's get after it!
