Your half play may hit but I do like the Thunder a lot.
80% of game 7ens the home team wins.
Your a great capper and I wish you the best my FRIEND
thanks buddy- I really think the Grizz come out loose and strong early while the Thunder- I would love to see my Grizzlies win tomorrow but the Thunder are bloody tough and should pull out a close one in the end

Great write-up Baker. What do you think of the total at 181?
LeBron was quoted...
"I can definitely see points in the game when it's not going to be fun for fans to watch if you love exciting basketball because it's going to be offensive struggles sometimes," James said Saturday as the Heat wrapped up preparations in Miami and traveled to Chicago for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals on Sunday. "It's going to be two great defensive teams [that] take pride defensively, [teams that] get more out of getting stops than they do in scoring."
Best of luck to you with your picks
Thanks man. I will be playing some unders in this series but not Game 1. Both the Heat and Bulls have not brought their best defensive efforts in Game 1. I think both teams might not have the same defensive intensities as they had in the closing games of their series but we'll see. I definitely like the Under more in Chicago than when they play in Miami.

Yeah he's been struggling from the floor but I for one, like his attitude. And Game 6, while he did shoot horribly once again, he limited the turnovers and had double digit assists. As long as he can keep his head in the game and play smart and take the shots when they are there, he will be fine.
And while I understand the Mayo promotion to the starting lineup doesn't change much, and it isn't some sort of magical fix, the one thing it does do is give Conley another scorer on the floor to find if the shots still don't fall.
if Mayo and Conley can hit some jumpers it's gonna be a hell of a game tomorrow

This is so true!!! These are the two guys I wait for their opinion to compare to my own capping.
Baker - great write up bud. I dont' have much of a take on the Memph/OKC game, but I totally agree with you on the Bulls. Let the public LOVE the Heat, but the Bulls are going to take this thing.

damn, this OKC/Grizz game is gonna be a hard one. Wallet is saying OKC, heart is saying Grizz. Might take OKC small, then if I lose I will still be happy that the Gizz won. really suck if Grizz lost and covered......then i'm shit outta luck.
All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy

Still currently thinking about Memphis and the points because I see the game being decided in the end but I feel you're right about how if Memphis is down 2 with 2 min left they will continually foul and probably not even cover the 6.5 or 7.. Could easily see that happening, especially with the way the Thunder shoot free throws on top of the fact that Memphis are one of the worst 3 pt shooting teams.. I also feel you're right about Memphis coming out real hard with the momentum carrying over from last game though and OJ now starting.. Just trying to decide if I should take 1st qtr and half or one or the other.. Feel like I've noticed a pattern of memphis slipping 2nd qtr after fast starts but hopefully they keep it up at least til half this time..
As for the Heat game, I also agree on chicago even though I'm from Miami and a Heat fan (though I usually fade them bc of the value).. Funny thing about this series and game is that right after we got Lebron when everyone here was in heaven and saying we def were going to the ship I was saying that I really couldn't see us winning the east bc not only the Celts but also the Bulls would be in our way, since I noticed they had signed Boozer after we got Bosh and Bron (And Wade), Korver after we got Miller, and then threw on Ronnie Brewer and Cj watson..
Way to beat Miami is if you have guys to d up Wade and Bron so with Deng, Bogans, and Brewer they may possibly have the best personnel of any team in the league to do that.. Then PG, D Rose not only will slice up Bibby but then also as you said, will take up tons of energy from Wade or Bron on D.. Could even throw in that not only do Boozer and Korver feel shunned by not being signed by us but also the entire city and team of Chicago, D-Wade's hometown.. D-Wade even made it known that he almost chose to go to the Bulls multiple times.. This game means everything for a young team and city in Chicago and I def see them coming out to a fast start early with Bibby still starting..
2 more last thoughts:
- Thibs is by far a better coach than Spoelstra, at least as of now in their career
- And Joel Anthony's rebounding mismatch vs Jermaine, Kristic, and Big Baby/KG, will NOT be close to the same vs Noah , Boozer, Asik, and Taj, expect to see some True C from the Heat with either Ilgauskas/Maagloire or even prepare to all of a sudden see Dampier take the floor at some point in the series.. We will also see some Udonis (vs. Taj?) minutes who for some reason didn't even get 1 minute in the close-out game vs the Celts so will probably still be real rusty at least to start.. Then again if not Udonis then Juwon lol.. Bad mismatches for the Heat big time, and actually after writing this may have to up my play haha, but then again that means betting more against my team

Actually I just read Miami has deactivated three big men (Jamaal Magloire, Erick Dampier and Dexter Pittman) so looks like we will definitely be seeing a lot more minutes for Haslem or Juwon.. I feel like Spo but Udonis in a tough spot though not giving him even 1 second last game ..

Thanks for the support! Rough start Grizz are playing fine they just can't shoot today and are making a ton of turnovers on the fastbreak. Hope the Bulls come through.
