After watching the Sixers barely beat the Cavs last 3 bench players w/ Wally and Boobie....I will put a chunckof my roll on Orl -10 and lower. They will get ANNILIATED in game 1. They have terrible coaching, terrible perimeter defense and they have no true defensive stopper to get that 1 stop when u need it most

The girl in my avator is a girl I know....her name is "Bubbles"...met her in Miami.
And no Im not laying a stack to win 1. I was talking about taking Orl -9 in game 1 for a good amount. But now Im just going to do a 3 team teaser for a chunk of my roll. Orl is #1 in it, followed by Cle.

I don't understand the love for this Sixers team,of ALL teams EAST or WEST they are coming into the playoffs with the least amount of confidence and momentum.

Good value for a possible upset at +500 to +650 at some books. Let me see you lay big money to go the other way -1000 to -1150 for Orlando.If you do Post your ticket.

Yes, they were 3-6 in April. That's pretty bad. And Orlando was 4-5. Also bad.
Orlando also rested or didn't play their starters for the majority of those losses in April. Also, the 76ers have been fighting for a better seed and they still can't seem to play well.

Orlando depends on the three ball too much to be successful in the playoffs. That will be their ultimate downfall. They'll probably beat the sixers, and could beat the Garnett-less Celtics, but they have no chance against Cleveland or the Lakers. Any futures on Orlando is a waste of money.
The Larry O'Brien Trophy will go to either the Lakers or Cavs. I'll take the Lakers.

It might be there downfall...but not in round 1. Did you watch how the Sixers got killed by dribble penetration kick out for 3s by the Cavs bench? Well its gonna get ugly if Turk and Rashad Lewis are hitting and Howard is cleaning up any misses. 20 point blowout in game 1. If not then you better expect it in game 2.

There is no way that i would lay -800 with Orlando in this series. The teams play similar lineups, as its basically one big, surrounded by four perimeter players.
The one matchup which i think is key, will be Andre Miller vs Rafer Alston. I like that matchup in Philly's favour. Miller likes to post up a lot for a point guard and either score or dish from there, and Rafer at all of 148 pounds isn't going to deny Miller in the post. If they switch Rafer onto Willie Green, he'll do the same thing. I'm anticipating seeing a lot of Anthony Johnson in this series because he has the bulk to match the Sixer guards. If the threes don't fall for Orlando, they are going to be in for a dog fight this entire series.
That's just my opinion. I'll probably be wrong.

Orlando is a sure fire stone cold pipe lock to win this series and there's 2 things Sixer fans and backers can do about it, absolutely nothing and like it.

Orlando when they lost n#2 bud, stopped playing hard, and rested starters. Sixers were absolute pathetic even playing for everything.
I am having a difficult time imaging Sixers who needed overtime in Cleveland to win by 1 point against Cleveland's bench to come to Orlando, and all of the sudden win 4 of 7 games against same team not having home court advantage.

I agree. Ratliff, Dalembert and Reggie Evans will HACK the shit out of Howard. They will frustrate the guy. He doesn't have enough weapons to bang all day on the Sixers frontcourt. Thats 18 fouls right there not to mention when they let the bench in and a guard just swipes his forearm to send him to the line. I've seen Howard go about 2-9FT down the stretch of games. That can't win in Philly.

Are you going to lay it since it is a cold pipe lock? Let me see ticket cut and paste into post.

The fact that the sixers are even warranting this kind of discussion is ridiculous. Barely beating the cavs without anybody playing. And saying Iguodala is going to go off is ridiculous, he's scored over 30 in 1 game ALL year and that was 31pts.... Magic will absolutely trounce the sixers.

Who's Orlando all of a sudden? They aren't the Cavs or Lakers or Celtics or Spurs for that matter. They are the 5th or 6th best team in the playoffs. This sixers team has a lot of fight in them, and they are not going to get trounced by any stretch. Its eazy to sit here and pick all the favourites to win, and think that you are smart after 7 of the 8 favourites win their series. It takes balls to predict Philly to get to Game 7 in this series, and that's what i'm predicting. Magic in 7.
I like what was written a few posts earlier, about the Sixers fouling D12 as much as possible to get him to the line, where he shoots under 60%. Howard for everything he does right on the glass and on defence, has yet to fully develop his offensive game, and until he does, Orlando will be nothing more than a team that wins in the first round, and ultimately loses against the top tier teams.

There is a big difference between being ballsy and stupid, and putting any kind of money on the sixers will be just that. I dont buy into that fouling theory either, teams tried to do that to shaq for years and look how many championships hes won. Its really not that hard to analyze this game....just look at the match ups. Funny how everybody said how bad the sixers were and how mad they got at them right before the playoffs started. I can't believe how everyone is actually giving them a chance here....

Does Orlando have any chance against the Cavs or a healthy Celtics team? My opinion is no. With that said, how is this team a -800 to -1000 favourite? All they do is launch threes and depend on one guy to do everything else. Orlando is overrated, and as soon as the threes stop falling, which will happen, they are toast. Probably in the 2nd round.

this may be the worst series bet of all time. sixers are horrific and dont even deserve to make the playoffs. series should be a sweep but i will say 4-1 orlando. save your money. i dont care if your getting 20-1

The only way this series turns into a route is if Sammy D doesn't play. If that happens, then i wouldn't give the Sixers much of a chance.
If you look at both rosters, they play similar lineups, which indicates to me that this might be a closer series than people anticipate.
I love Andre Miller's matchup against the Orlando PG's in this series, and fully expect him to dominate that position. Aside from that, there are a bunch of perimeter players who basically cancel each other out. Turkoglu and Rashard Lewis haven't met a jump shot that they didn't like, and fall in love with it time and time again, despite being 6'10" each. Igoudala is more agressive and better defensively than both of them. Thad Young is turning into a solid defender himself, and at 6'8" and atheltic could cause some problems for Turk and Lewis. Howard obviously has the edge vs Dalembert, but he better be prepared to take a beating. Because Sammy D and Reggie Evans are going to foul him often, and foul him hard. Unless Howard turns into a 80% foul shooter over night, he's going to be in for a lot of frustration from the line. If he can't hit meaningless free throws at a decent rate in the Regular season, you guys think he's going to hit them in hte clutch?
