Magic backers should be scared tonight after last night's win...

Your 1st response to me. "odds....ur nuts". I responded with a little constructive criticism. Your 2nd response to me "Okay, Mr. Fucking know it all."

Also just to clarify for the morons that do decide to grace our presence in the betting communities. Anytime you decide to say that you are better than another at capping for what ever the reason may be, and you are more than willing to make that public. That pretty much classifies you as a moron in my book. There are a few people here that post that have grasped my attention over the years and i'm not going to name the ones I like to read because they already know who they are. No one here said my post was going to produce a 100% guaranteed winner (including myself) nor did it say that I am 100% right by making this wager tonight. But you better fucking believe that albeit the time I spent on researching this wager led me to this play is exactly where i'm going to place my money. So go ahead and hate if you must but at the end of the day I guarantee you the kids will show up in this thread to rub it in while the adults will just kind of laugh in their heads a little and move along to the next chapter of wagers. 

Appreciate the write-up odds. Good stuff. As far as the back-and-forth going in your thread, it's good to see the both of you feel so strongly about your respective sides. But instead of resorting to personal attacks and such, why don't you just put your money where your mouth is? Isn't that why we're all here and gambling?

odds 100% agree its hard not playin the better team here just to get str8 up win.  orlando always have touble with guys that can slash an get to basket.  Thats why wade has killed them over the years and i believe that westbrook will have a huge night.  Perkins has always done a great job on howard goin back to celtics days..  I will b on thunder large 2nite

101-89 thunder

Love this play, great write-up odds -- neutralize or hope to contain Dwight, and OKC is like WAY better at every position. Always the chance that D-12 picks up quick fouls and is taken out, and if that happens, isn't it blow-out city with OKC? They have advantages at almost every position. Who on ORL is gonna stop Westbrook, Harden, or Durant -- Turkoglu? Reddick? Duhon? Richardson? Ryan Anderson? Westbrook has the ability to blow by Nelson all night and attack the second level of the defense and KD hung 30 on them last time they played. I think OKC is the right side

 

I like OKC so much odds that I threw two handshakes your way

Not only is Big Baby garbage, he's not an inside player. He led the league in getting his shot blocked a few years ago. He's made a living off of hitting that big jumper for BOS in the postseason for a few years now. Plays below the rim and relies on the jumper. An OK player (albeit flawed) but one who has an NBA level skill -- shooting. The thing with ORL is, and anyone who has ever bet ORL knows this to be true: you live by the jumper, you die by the jumper. They are a jump shooting team, period.

I hear dudes talking about Earl Clark locking up Kevin Durant -- are you serious? Kevin Durant is gonna make Earl Clark, who doesn't play defense anyways, look like a Spanish matador when he drives by him all night.

And the fact that the Magic play jump shooting "stretch" 4s will somewhat effect Ibaka, but OKC is a pretty solid team in terms of defensive rotations. Let's not act like Ibaka is a slow guy who can't close out on a PF shooting a jumper from 20 feet, especially against guys like Anderson and Glen Davis and Turkoglu, none of whom have better first steps, lateral foot speed, or length as Ibaka. If you are going to give those three guys the ball at the top of the key and iso them one on one with Ibaka, I will bet that Ibaka wins that match-up on the individual play around 65-70% of the time

And isn't Ibaka as a help defender only really needed if you Dwight is dominating guys? Perkins has lost a ton of weight and seems to be more mobile and quicker to keep up with D-12, and while he's one of the best power players in the league, he seems to be trying to show off his skills this year in the post that don't involve just dunking the ball. With Perkins playing him one on one to such success in Boston, it's not like he isn't familiar with his game and doesn't know his tendencies. Ibaka's effect as a help defender, or lack thereof, is greatly negated by this effect

Thunder

All excellent point's. It's no wonder the Magic are holding onto Dwight Howard till the last breath. Once he's gone the Orlando Magic will be playing for worst record in the NBA along side the Charlotte Bobcats. It's only a matter of time and if the Magic front office has any brains they hopefully have a silent plan in unloading Dwight on the deadline date. And i say silent because they have already expressed a willingness to hold onto him and not trade. If they don't make a deal Dwight could be on his way out leaving Lebron style. Shame on David Stern for allowing some of the shady shit to go down the way it did....

This dude just Mises the point every damn time....always trying to lecture and never answer the points made...

Only mentioned school because you continue to try and demean my contribution by calling Me a.moron...which is clearly not true.....

Ah yes playing along side a group of 3 hall of famers can have that effect on other players...

great writeup odds! 

im gonna drop a unit on the thunder tonight.

Only from you, because you fail to make any valid point's. Contradicting anything you have brought to this thread is nothing but wasted time.

Thunder let down .

Thank You for the kind words and BOL tonight. Hope the Thunder can follow through and do exactly what they are capable of doing. And that's put a solid beat down on a team that lacks depth at many positions...

I'm on OKC tonight, BOL.
