Boston will not win in LA, Boston will win game six and it will all come down to the last one. As I said, as the series progresses in LA I see them pulling away on the scoreboard but who knows. With that said it does look as if Boston has some heart on the road finally. Since they are inexperienced I think they thought it would be like regular season but now realized that they have to step it up. I am only betting the side from here out and maybe over/unders. Winning to much on WNBA and MLB to give a shit. GL to all.  
 
PS. If LA gets any suppport from Odom or Gasol tonight it could get ugly quick!!



wats ur pick for WNBA today?

I am on the Lakers – 7.5 and over 191. The Lakers want to pick up the tempo of this game and will make there free throws tonight.

 

LAKERS by 10.

 

I will not apologize to BK1376. I doubt he made that wager. No one in there right mind lays 6K to win 1K. I dont care how much money you have it is a horrible bet. And if he had that much money he wouldnt care about making 1K. There are a lot easier ways to make a grand. Take your BS to Myspace!

You claim to some kind of a super NBA game predictor. Put down your bets before tip-off. You don't, you will have no credibility on this thread. Anyone can say they did this or that after a game starts or is over. Get real.

 WOW

Lines are dropping and MONEYLINE as well. Boston ML was +300 now its +280.. Lakers ML was -360 now dropping to -330. Books probably wants everyone to bomb lakers moneyline(like some of you did, betting Gs on it, and with the better price (game 3 was -600?) Whos knows? But Boston moneyline wouldnt be a bad bet for tonights game. Good Luck everyone

Kobe will be as frusterated as he was the last game. Pierce na d garnet should have worked the kinks out. Celts by 2...last second 3 point shot by Cassell...

this is biggest game yet, if lakers win they got homecourt advantage, if not, it's over for them.

im thinking that 7 points is a lot to lay considering how close and up & down last game was for the lakers... ML might be the right play again.

Gasol, Odom, and Radmanovic should have the kinks worked out also.
And don't kid yourself, Doc Rivers isn't stupid enough to put the ball in Cassell's hands in a game deciding situation with Ray Allen at his disposal.

What the trend shows is this.  Boston's performance throughout these playoffs has not improved from Game 3's to Game 4's.  The total has declined in each of Boston's 3 previous playoff series.  Although both Garnett and Pierce had a terrible game in Game 3; the same can be said for both Gasol and Odom.
 
I hate the fact that the line continues to be overinflated.  I lost big taking my Lakers in Game 3.  There is no value right now in giving points when the spread is so high, especially when realistically the games could go either way.
 
My early lean is that the best bet for game four is:
 
                  UNDER 192
 

 

I changed my mind.  After much thought, I think Garnett, Pierce, Odom and Gasol will all play better.  I am going to attribute the low scoring Game 3 to jet lag.  Tonight will be all systems go.  Lakers win in a shootout by 9.

 

LAKERS   -7

OVER 191

I'm going Lakers- 40% of the money on home team is a great trend for taking the Lakers. 40% or less money in a playoff on home team, if you take blindly your ahead. Plus I'm going to buy insurance as the home chalk magic number -6 at home, so I'm going to buy 2 points to go Lakers -5.5. Good Luck everyone.

I know, i was being sarcastic. but the ironic game ender would be that situation.

Well I just can't leave it alone. LA 1st, LA -6 game LA/Minny WNBA teaser. 2 units across the board. I really think the Lakers are going to take this one pretty easy. GL

I've laid off the games thus far although I've made winning picks for all of them (which irritates me that I didn't put any wagers in because I'd be up $500-600 in this series) and I will lay off again tonight.
 
This game in my opinion is too difficult to call.  There's too many factors and I'm not that desperate to get a wager in tonight, especially since I let the ones I was sure about go by the wasit side. 
 
I will keep my credibility with my winners I've picked so far this series and lay off this one.
 
GLA & win big!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
P.S.   If I had to make a guess anyways I would say Lakers win by 5 or so but again, its a toss up tonight.

Relax mate, don't you know that panzers are way overrated. Next time put your money on Holland, trust me. This is the best team in euro 2008.  GL.
