[dudleysdad]

These teams have a tough time on the road.

Its so strange

Refresh my memory, did we bet that you'd walk naked from Cleveland to Toronto if the Cavs failed to sweep the series?

I don't think I committed. Between the Brady thing hanging in the balance and this series, that's a lot of nudity, and a lot of walking.

In Tevas, I know that

Richard Jefferson has hit the fountain of youth. Looks more athletic too.

 

[tipyerbartender1]

Lowry walked before the foul, even by today's standards. No bunny hopping allowed.

He bathes in the healing waters of the Cuyahoga at each dawn.

 

[nbafan88]

Come on TT!!!!!!

 

[tipyerbartender1]

Lebron's measured passivity is probably brilliant, but looks pretty damn passive when the shot clock buzzes and he's dribbling on the baseline.

Cant bring that FG % down for no reason. Seriously.

 

[nbafan88]

Lebron is still the best player in the world. It's not even a question. Very impressed by his fitness this season

Seriously????

Seriously????

Yes. Up 20 he's not going to take a bad shot. And a dead ball turnover is much better than potentially starting a fast break.

 

[nbafan88]

7 games decided by 30 or more this post season. Nuts.

Well yeah he's not going to take a bad shot, but it's not because he doesn't want to hurt his shooting %. I think that's what he was referring to.

 

[nbafan88]

Need a triple double for Lebron and double double for TT.

 

[nbafan88]

Defensive intensity is going to vanish in the 2h

 

[cogenman]

look at dova on lowry lol

 

[Lareux]

It really does seem strange.

But TNT had a graphic the other night with Ernie and the crew showing the teams who won 65+ games that lost a playoff game by 25+ points that season...Bulls lost one (think it was the 1996 team), the 2000 Lakers lost 2 games, and there were 2 other 65+ win teams on the list (SA may have been one of them)...each of those teams won the title that season though...it was after Game 3 of OKC/GS which is why they were showing it.

Have Bron props on over rebounds and assists.

All will prob lose. No idea who's gonna play in the 2h

OKC burned me on a handful of props the past two games since they blew GS right out of Oklahoma twice.

 

[nbafan88]

Largest HT lead in conference finals history

 

[Lareux]

I have the Cavs -16.5 at +200

U have no clue.. That serious

Please go do something productive with your time. The only reason I even saw your post is because I'm on my phone and the page refreshed.

I was very close to taking win by 21+. I think it was like +350. GL

 

[hugh613]

Not often you see a team score 65 in a half and still have the under cash.

Put a jock on for once in your life and learn what it's like to compete before u talk horse crap

 

[nbafan88]

Cleveland finally stopped relying on the 3. The experiment is over

 

[hugh613]

Pinnacle's so lame not offering actual 2H lines - wanted to take Cavs ML in the 2H, but no can do.

Didn't bet the under, although that wouldn't have surprised me had I taken the over...

 

[Lareux]

Well they're only +105 at the book I'm using, so you aren't missing much.

 

[hugh613]

What do you mean?

There's no actual 2H line - just a live line for full game ATS and O/U, which isn't necessarily the same thing if you want to bet team totals or ML.

 

[Lareux]

Grabbed the under 94.5 for the 2nd half

 

[hugh613]

Good luck Lareux, but looks like you got a bad number. The resident fraud just posted Over 94 @ +104, LOL...

 

[KJ]

^just saw that, never fails :rofl:

Well at least for me it's a good number.

Same here.

So let's think about this for a second.
The Foxes won a championship as the longest shot ever....
if a Cleveland team win a championship and the Cubs win the World Series.....
does the world end or should we bet on WHO to win the Super Bowl this year?

I asked the question yesterday on what people thought the odds would have been for the Cavs and Cubs to both win titles this year. I'd imagine that wasn't offered anywhere at all, but there are the books across the pond who will put odds on anything someone would like to wager on essentially. I just wonder if those odds would have been close to the Foxes odds that were historic. It seems unlikely that hypothetical prop bet would have been 5,000 to 1, but I'm curious to find out what they would have been.

Browns/Raiders in the AFC ship to meet the Lions in the Bowl

I think the Bills may be the answer to that question.

 

[KJ]

If the Bills and Vikings meet in the Bowl it's time to go

 

[nbafan88]

0-5 on props. Sad.

 

[guaranteeed]

Raiders have absolutely nothing to do with those 2 garbage franchises

they've been to a superbowl more recent than half the league, actually have titles, and actually look good going forward

 

[tipyerbartender1]

Raiders have NFL titles, just not as many as the Browns.
