Refs were horrible in this one. Raptors got so may borderline calls.

Celtics 3-12 SU in their last 15 playoff games with Tony Brothers officiating.
Bad calls both ways but it is what is with the NBA refs, this bullshit is gonna happen unfortunately.

Harden needs to step up. Right now beard

No House is some absolute BS too. The NBA is claiming he “may” have violated the covid protocol, but haven’t proven anything, haven’t even given their side of the story saying what he did wrong. So, he’s not allowed to play while the NBA just makes some shit up? What an absolute fucking joke.
Even if he did something like “walk outside the perimeter,” give me a fucking break that guys are held out of important games for some fucking boogie man BS. Fuck the NBA.

Sources: House's activity in Rockets hotel probed
Rockets forward Danuel House Jr.'s status for the remainder of the Western Conference semifinals is in jeopardy as the NBA probes a potential violation of campus protocol, sources told ESPN.
So again, the Rockets lose an important guy on their squad (conveniently against LeDouche and crew) for 2 games (so far) with absolutely nothing but “potential violations?” Give me a fucking break.
Team and league officials have declined to specify the nature of House's violation.
And then they’re allowed to decline anything specifying what he “may have” done? Where is the NBAPA?

Can never look at a box score and say would one player have made the difference. In this case, he could have. They only play 7 or 8 guys to begin with. House was a monster loss.
These Laker blowouts are amazing though as Clippers every game and series is free money. Rockets are exhausted, small, and hurt. Probably not even a top 20 form wise this last week. Sets up for an easy payday. Clippers series is a home equity line type wager.

Not necessarily. It’s certainly possible he could have made a difference in one of the two games he was made to sit out for “potential” violations (of a fucking stupid group of rules to begin with).

its clear some guys will come up with any excuse possible to avoid admitting the 2 best players always win these series.

JFC. No one was making any excuses for Houston not winning. For fuck‘s sake, I even posted it before the game, this after the first game he missed being called “personal reasons” until yesterday morning so it wasn’t even known that the NBA was holding him out. I also never once made reference to them losing or potentially losing because if it, I simply brought up how insane it was.
It doesn’t have to have anything to do with the actual player who is being forced to sit...the fact that the NBA can use terminology like “potential violations“ (again of ridiculous and bogus rules to begin with) and force a team to sit a guy in a playoff series should be lambasted by anyone who’s a fan of the game.

League would love Sunday 330, 8 PM card

The Truth Is Out There
Clips in a 94% straight-up spot.
Game 5, up 3-1 in the series, off back to back wins and favored by more than a TD.
35-2 SU (21-15 ATS).
It's a damn shame we have to factor corrupt officials into our plays.
Only 1 team has failed to win in this spot in the past decade and it was the Dubs last season vs the Clips and the ref in charge was Marc Davis.

Huge pressure on Boston that let this series slip away more than once.
This Raps roster is deep and battle tested, not so much on the other side.
Siakam can't play any worse than he's played so far. The somewhat overrated Cameroonian is more than due.
Short favorites (-4 or less) in Game 7's are fools gold going 1-9 ATS (2-8 SU) last 10 occasions.
Short favorites in Game 7 off a loss haven't won since May 7th, 2005 going 0-6 SU and ATS last 6 occasions.
Raps a combined 14-2 SU under this reffing crew this season (Scotty 5-0, Zarba 7-1, Guthrie 2-1).

Under is 34-21 last 55 Game 7's (based on the closing number).
Under is currently on 7-0 run in this spot.

It's a Game 7 so anything could happen.
Just played the numbers.
Have this game lined as a pick 'em.
So it's an automatic play on the points.
