The Wiz missed a ton of open shots but in doing so they've given the Pacers a lot of confidence. They've also shown that they are not ready to take the next step. It's not so much that they lost but how they lost (the tightest buttholes I've seen in these playoffs:)

    Game 1 is very important and actually dictates who wins a series the overwhelming majority of the time.


    Let's go over the scenarios for the wizards after 3:

    Up 3-0: we can exclude that. Vegas is not going to offer a +170 favor to a team that will win the first three
    Up 2-1: would be nice to have but they got tight on their home court. They were 3 minutes away from going up 2-0 and went cold and are now down 2-1. Home court sometimes had the opposite effect of playing well. Ask the clips tonight.
    Down 2-1: here we are

    The point is, they weren't going to sweep and they likely weren't going to be up 3-1 after 4. Why? Because two series in a row now, they've gone on the road to start the series and would have had to go 6-2 in the first  4 of each against the bulls and pacers. That's a very tall order even give the way the pacers were playing.

    Win the next game and it's 2-2, right where they should be (although I did see 2-1 before I saw 1-2). Not a big issue and I won't be hedging anything.

    Wow. He's now 6 monster favs and one dog over his last 7 team based picks (and much more than that since he slammed the favs with several bets). What a rebel!

    Kindly post his write up on the game here. I'd love to read it.

    Hope it hits because I have Wizards 66/1 to win the East, but think Pacers got some of their groove back and will take this down in 5 or 6.  If Wizards lose game 4, this is over back at Indiana.

That's a very tall order even give the way the pacers were playing.

    Win the next game and it's 2-2, right where they should be (although I did see 2-1 before I saw 1-2). Not a big issue and I won't be hedging anything.
    I'm with you. 

    How confident are you that Wiz come back and take game 4 with authority?

    Up 3-0: we can exclude that. Vegas is not going to offer a +170 favor to a team that will win the first three
    Up 2-1: would be nice to have but they got tight on their home court. They were 3 minutes away from going up 2-0 and went cold and are now down 2-1. Home court sometimes had the opposite effect of playing well. Ask the clips tonight.
    Down 2-1: here we are

    The point is, they weren't going to sweep and they likely weren't going to be up 3-1 after 4. Why? Because two series in a row now, they've gone on the road to start the series and would have had to go 6-2 in the first  4 of each against the bulls and pacers. That's a very tall order even give the way the pacers were playing.

    Hard to think young players in Wall and Beal could recover from scoring 63 at home into a big performance in game 4, but I hope they do.

    actually the winner of g3 historically wins the series 75.2% of the time.

    Wizards really blew that one.  This series is done.  Paul george is playing like a superstar, hibbert got that cucmumber out of his vag is is back to 80% of the hibbert of last year.

    John wall is playing like a dear in head-lights.  Just not shooting well enough and every time he drives, he is looking to pass!!  he needs to start taking some of shots himself via tear-drop jumper.

    If it wasn't for the miller-harrington-gooden trio at the start of the 4th q, this one wouldn't have even been close in the last minute.

    Not trolling, but got to call it for what it is.

    Its going to be minimum -1000 pacers for the series.  will be tough to hedge out of this one!  as tempting as it might be, better to eat a loss than to do a large hedge bet on a -1000 moneylline to try an re-coup loses. 

    probably best to do a combination of game 5 pacers moneyline, pacers series alternate line -1.5 games and hoping pacers get down early in game 5 and live betting better moneyline.

     just doing some quick math, new series line will probably be wizards +1200/pacers -2500 to win series.

    best way to buy out is it bet pacers game by game for 1/4 of your wizards risk amount.  There is no way to avoid some losses.  Can't overbet pacers in game 5 in case wizards pull out the victory and risk taking a double loss.

    Wiz r in over their heads. No one is ready for this moment on that team. No one wants to take big shot and Wall is shook. This series is over. Indy is back to playing good ball. Game 5 has blowout written all over it

    You know what's funny, Scal. My plan was to bet on the Wiz heavy for tonight and then use the winnings to buy out of my series bet. Instead, I doubled my trouble! This league can be brutal. I really think the series started to change at the end of game 2. Down 3, the wiz had multiple chances to tie or cut the lead, and they came away with 4 empty possessions, chucking threes each time. It was one of the strangest things I've seen. They had the Pacers on the ropes and couldn't finish. This choke job then continued into game 3, where they could not buy a bucket and finally game 4 (to lose a lead like that with those refs officiating the game--all dog lovers--was bad news). Unfortunately, I had to take my wife and kids out so I could not hedge. Instead of being up 3 grand for the day I'm down 1.5 (since I'm counting the series bet as a loss as well). I would think about betting the Pacers the next game but I still don't believe they are that good. On the other hand, who can trust the Wizards? What a conundrum. What misery. About the only thing I did right today was to bet the Clippers M. After agonizing over how to bet that game  I finally decided to go ML. Just didn't like that -5. BTW, Vegas got killed today, with both public dogs coming through.

    I also think the Pacers winning may impact the Heat/Nets series. Can't see the Heat wanting to stretch this thing out now that the Pacers are almost done.
