This is just for 1st round series bets + game bets + props.

Clippers future from regular season has expired.

Houston, New York and Indiana futures are still alive. That may be all over (likely) in the next two weeks.

Happy with my first round plays -- except the series bet on the Lakers.

Clippers lost the series in Game 4. Basically a gassed heavy weight out there tonight with no chance to do anything. Leonard and a bunch of bums it looked like all of the sudden.

Thunder Game 1 if under 10 could be nice. But Nuggets have champ DNA and shot making.

-9 and 222 is the #

Rust an issue but they should score at will all series.

I think OKC in 5.

Won't be a long series.

They figured the Clippers defense out for sure. The Clippers were a great regular season defense. But it was also a roster with dudes who aren’t great defenders. A lot of smoke and mirrors and coaching.

OKC has dawgs all over. And that Nuggets defense didn’t do anything other than toss in a wrinkle zone and beg for missed shots.

Agree.

I’d take -2.5 games at good plus if it’s there

Yeah I'm sure, just waiting for them to open up the series for parlays. Series is OKC -800 now, I'm sure the CLE/BOS/OKC will be a popular one

Oh for sure.

Chalky but likely happens.

I'll be rooting for NY and Indy just due to the futures I have (3300 and 5000) but 2 wins by either is likely the high water mark.

Full disclosure...

I had this as a lean for a few days...

I honestly forgot this series started tonight. Odd starting time as well... Usually 3:30.

Anyways, I was able to get this right before tip thankfully..

Satisfying win.

Nicely done

Got out of bed roughly 10 minutes before tip and liked my play but a total in some fashion made so much sense
 
Game #1 tonight is a capping game for myself + I'll miss most at golf league.

Game #2 is stalking LIVE heavily, hoping for the rusty start.

I'll get into all 4 series much deeper late night and tomorrow morning.
 
Happy with that position at half.

Bottom line is OKC defense is much better and more athletic than what Denver saw last round.

The Nuggets will score, but not as consistently.

Keep an eye on the steals and blocks category all series.

Assists cannot be that lopsided for Denver to have a chance as well.

I'm going to be frank here -

I'm not comfortable with this bet.

Denver just keeps making big shots and although OKC has improved the boards this quarter I do fear the end of game garbage hoops.

I'm going to keep it for now, but will middle if I can get 9.5 and reduced juice.

I wasn't comfortable for a reason.

The # got to 10.5 and I couldn't submit quick enough.

I had chances all half to hedge and never did.

I deserve the loss.

Parlay --

Boston and OKC ML

2.50 to win 1.11

I submitted this 5 mins after the AG game winner.

Ill write this up later but I'll be stalking OKC live as well. Denver adrenaline in G1 but tired game coming...

Boston will shoot better and more efficiently.

Crappy odds, but yeah, if this one loses, heads will fly...

Should absolutely hit. Are you down on Cleveland?
 
I just can’t buy the Cavs at these numbers. Played the Pacers to win the series and Pacers to win the West prior to this series, and figured I could hedge along the way if needed. I just feel these teams are pretty even.

I hope so EMG!

I played the Pacers +5000 last June or July. I'd love for them to steal this series.

Sometimes I wish I was just a robot and could gamble with no emotion, against sheer randomness

Would clean up on Wall Street if I could channel that somehow but pretty much impossible

I feel ya.

But we both had a good read there.

I'm often emotionless in aspects of life but when it comes out is why I'm single at 50 and might well be for the rest of time

Decisions are best made devoid of emotion. It's the life thing that fucks the whole equation up and lets the liquor (or whatever vice) industry thrive

When you‘re dealing with objective facts or things, yes, but often not when it comes to decisions concerning humans or anything with emotional value
 
I'm hoping for a Minny run so I can buy off.

Fade an injury this shit happens.

I didn't bet this due to injury but I definitely wanted to fast track said bet before I lost more value.

Simply put, I as a bettor needed to table this game (other than totals) after the best player in the series left the game. We see this all season long.
