NBA Playoff Plays (Finals)...

Always thought that guy looked like he was wearing a McD's large fry on his head

Refs in Game 3 should be interesting.

Marc Davis and Monty McCutchen will help the Cavs if they're deployed.

Like Scottie Pippen alluded to earlier today, 'Cavs gonna need some home cooking'.

We got Monty, Ed Malloy and 'Crooked' Kenny working tonight.

Last time Crooked Kenny worked a Finals game between these 2 teams, Steph surprisingly fouled out and Dray had 4 fouls in the 1st half.

Monty can be concerning at times, dude has a preference for the home team. Malloy a stooge.

We should see some favorable calls for Cramps and Co.

That being said, the way the Dubs are locked-in right now they're good enough to overcome such things.

If not, will play Game 4 accordingly to get ones money back.
 
Line is somewhat strong though.

Last year in Game 3 the Cavs were still favored even after getting their shit pushed in during Games 1 and 2.

This year the Cavs are getting basically 4 points at home, so the alleged smart and public money is on the Dubs.

There has been no signs of a buy-back on Cleveland as of yet.

Fortunate to get some value on the money-line, it's now -170 at CRIS and high -160+ everywhere else.

Thanks Pip.

Yep, can't really go the other way after what transpired in Game 3.

Cavs threw their best shot at the Dubs and still ended up losing. A play on the Cavs is chasing ghosts.

Again, Numbers > Ghosts.

Focused and hungry to make history and make a statement after last years Finals collapse, the Dubs will sweep.

Dubs overcame some dodgy calls in Game 3, league can only do so much for LeCramps.

Expecting some fight early from Cleveland before they fade into the history books,

As the defeated opponent of one of the league's greatest teams possibly the greatest.

Golden State is 3-0 SU and ATS in closeout games this postseason winning by an average margin of 21.7 points,

All 3 were on the road obviously.

And should the play somehow fail will play Game 5 accordingly.
 
tough one

i always said 4-1 like many....but thtought the Cavs grab this next one

now, not so sure

that would take big big effort and W not caring

Yep, only the Dubs can beat the Dubs.

Will be interesting to see how that Cavs' locker room and front office reacts should they get swept.

And the Kardashian curse is legit.

Curse of the stank puss...
 
1 day turnaround after Cramps played 45:37 minutes of a 48 minute game.

Can't put blame on LeCramps for his overall performance, dude battles then eventually runs out of gas but this is a team he built.

Carrying this team on his back as well as having to guard KD for most of the game has to become laboring.

Korver, Deron aren't winners. Deferring to Kyrie Iso-Ball with the over-dribble isn't winning. Ty Lue ain't gonna draw you up a winning play.

Maybe Divol's boy Blatt could have drawn up something other than a step-back contested 3 or a half-ass drive and dish to a 'loser' in Game 3.
 
Dubs 7-0 SU (6-1 ATS) as a fave with a bigger spread than the previous game in a closeout game.

Winning by an average margin of 18.2 points.

4-0 SU and ATS in this spot on the road winning by an average of 19 points.

Can add more points to the line, it don't matter with this team. Dubs close this series out in style.
 
Refs meh again. Mike C, Marky Marc and Gobble.

Cramps will get his fair share of calls but the Dubs have shown they can overcome a little bias.

Also looks like I 'overpaid' for the 5.5 as well.
 
Case of Dubs win - they cover, if not then it's more than likely a Game 5.

Highest percentage of bets according to the 'consensus' dudes are on the Cavs ML...
 
In hindsight should have bet on Cramps not going out like a chump (with the league's help).

Dubs didn't come with that same fire of the first 3 games.

Hate drinking juice on a losing play.

Playing Game 5 accordingly...

As crazy as last night's game was,

Cavs needed a Finals record quarter century of 3's, some ref help and amass 86 first half points to win.

This series will be decided by the Dubs' defense and if it decides to show up again.

Game 1 was their best effort, Game 2 was a little worse, Game 3 a little more worse and in Game 4 the Dubs' defense was putrid.

Cavs hit some tough shots but there were so many lapses and missed assignments by the Dubs.

Really surprised at the effort they brought last night with the opportunity to make history.

Dubs did deliver millions of revenue to their owners though by allowing a Game 5.

Probably gonna wait on which refs are being deployed before locking anything in.

Have a strong and obvious lean.

Have this game lined at 9.5, will sit on the spread and see where it goes.
 
Gonna assume Danny Crawford is the crew chief in Game 5, other 2 refs are anyone's guess but it won't be Marc Davis or Callahan thankfully.

NBA will not want a repeat of the officiating embarrassment that was Game 4
 
[TABLE="class: table, width: 260"]
<tbody style="box-sizing: border-box;">[TR]
[TD]Cleveland @ Golden State[/TD]
[TD]Danny Crawford (#43)[/TD]
[TD]Ed Malloy (#14)[/TD]
[TD]Derrick Stafford (#9)[/TD]
[/TR]

Nothing alarming with the refs, Dubs were 0-3 in the Finals vs Cleveland under Stafford but won Game 1 under his whistle.

Danny is neutral for the most part unless he's received instructions and the Dubs are 2-0 SU with Malloy in the Finals vs Cleveland.

Play up in a bit.

Lol...

Not gonna change the approach based on one game where everything went right for Cleveland.

Cavs needed an All-Star type performance and some 'rugby' officiating to steal a game.

Cramps saved face and the Dubs got a massive revenue inducing home game.

Better team 'circles the wagons' and closes it out, unlikely the Dubs fuck around here after the narrative of last year.

In Game 5 last season, the Dubs were fat off a win in Cleveland and minus Draymond.

This time around being off a loss should help them focus and get shit done, they also have their full line-up.

Great teams do not lose at home in these circumstances.

If Golden State want to be considered one they do not let tonight slip away and allow last season's demons to reappear.

I'm anticipating a 15+ win by the Dubs.
