NBA Playoffs thread

Aye you would think but what do I know ? Coral and their sister site eurobet very quick to adjsut and are not -9.5
I see line is now up to -10 on pinnacle as well. Seems the money is piling on the spurs. Still -9 at expekt. Hmm I'll probably leave it to be honest.
I see clippers are now down to -3. That could be tempting. Surely they won't make an arse of it the way they did last time (will they ) ?

[sdsponger]

You never know with the Clips, hopefully the first game will serve as a major wake-up call for them.

Pinnacle line aint far off -2.5 for clips now, I reckon that could be a great shout.
I liked it at -3.5 but -2.5 is even better of course.

[sdsponger]

Alien, you see any individual props posted for the next Laker's game anywhere? Lots of speculation in the LA media that Kobe will go off for 40+ in the next game, especially with his lack luster performance in game 1. I can't wait to see what the OU on his point total will be.

[aliensyndm]

Ladbrokes have it set at 36.5 points, loads of juice on all their NBA bets but sometimes they release lines way of synch with the rest and hence it still represent value. The over/under is currently both at 5/6 ,1.83, -120 depending on your chosen odds format

[sdsponger]

I can see him going over that for sure...they tried something new the other day and it didn't work...almost did, but didn't. Kobe will be going for blood in game 2. Not bad odds...I'm slowly getting the hand of the decimal odds...been practicing with my bet365 account

[Grga]

Haslem suspended for Miami.Anyone thinking that Chicago may do something?
To cover +7 spread again?
I'm going for Chicago +7 @ 1.911 and Chicago ML @ 3.554

36.5 for Bryant to score is too big for me.Boris Diaw and Tim Thomas are good defensive players,expecialy Thomas.He will score around 30.

[sdsponger]

I don't Grga, Kobe's season average against the Suns was like 42. When the media gets on his case like they are now, he usually responds in a BIG way.

I kinda like the Bulls tonight myself.

[sdsponger]

Who does everyone like today? I'm thinking the Cavs and Spurs take care of business, not sure about the Indy/NJ game though.

[Grga]

Spurs -11 for me.

[aliensyndm]

Yeah actually I've come round to spurs as well although I wish I had jumped on earlier when it was mentioned artest was out and the line was still around -8.5 !
I've managed on at -10.5 so lets see what happens.
Clippers certainly didn't make the same mistake as last time and stuffed denver.
Now spurs mean business and they certainly have the tools to take sac apart even with artest. Now without him I gotta think they are in deep shit, we shall see I guess

[sdsponger]

Glad to see you came around Alien

I locked in as soon as I could after posting about Artest.

I see the Cavs are off to a quick start

[aliensyndm]

Now that is why I should have jumped on spurs when they were -8.5

[sdsponger]

Was a whacky b-ball night, that's for sure. I could see tonight going being similar, especially the Detroit and Dallas games.

I may just watch...hopefully I'll be counting my winnings from the Cardinal's RL sweep of the Pirates
