Round 2 discussion thread

Nope. Scotty in Milwaukee or the Bay tomorrow.

Dammit. I’m still rolling with Mavs, i committed to this before gm 2. Woulda preferred they just covered gm2 but luka wore down and the defense continued to be fucking awful! I expect them to get beat up by suns bigs but they can’t let rest of the team continue having the equivalent to a shoot around! Mavs played such good defense during the season but suns getting one wide open shot after another this series, what they shoot like 80% in 2nd half of game 2? Luka can’t possibly keep up with that!!

Might bet Mavs in game 4. But just might.

Every part of me thinks this is a sweep but I could at least see them getting a token win down 0-3

No way I'm betting on them tonight, home court for them is like a deflated balloon I'm guessing tonight

Maxey over 20.5 points. Seemed like they finally told him to take over last game and nobody on heat could stay in front of him! That was the 1st time I recall Maxey getting the most shots on the team and he responded w 12-22 for 34 points, if they wanna get back in this series they need more Maxey all the time!! Harden has no interest being the guy, we have seen what it looks like when he the Main dude on a team in playoffs and it never been impressive, move out the way and let this kid do his thing!

While I agree and love Maxey, can Harden actually get out of the way for 4 quarters? At some point I have to think his ego starts dominating his will to win. Not like Doc's gonna do shit about it.

Seems to me beard tried to be the guy in 1st half of gm2 but he either ran out of gas or lost interest after halftime. Think he only took 5 shots in 2nd half! So yea you could be right but at some point his shot wont be falling and he will check out, then Maxey can take over!! I suppose if harden comes out and actually on fire it could be a problem but what are the odds of that? Lol

My mornings are typically trying to play devil's advocate because still a bunch of time to actually like a wager, and I think I like Maxey.

Derby weekend throws a wrench in because I get up, eat breakfast, take vitamins, say prayers....then there's already big stakes racing at 10am Friday so it's a distraction. Already logged out of email and anything work related today

 

[2daBank]

Bam ov 29.5 “par” ., no freaking clue why this number came down 4 from last game? Jojo still out so they still don’t have anyone who can check him. Herro apparently banged up so I’d think they need Bam to continue dominating. He took off most the hawks series as they didn’t need him so he well rested now, he had a nice gm to close hawks out and he has kept it goinv this series avg 23.5 points, 10.5 boards and 3.5 dimes in the 1st 2 games. There really no reason that doesn’t continue with sixers having nobody who can deal with him.

You have a strong lean for the derby? I need a exacta!

 

[2daBank]

I’m not playing props in the mavs game, losing with mavs will annoy me enough.

Got a few but today is Oaks day and already hammering the $500k+ purse stakes races

It's on USA channel

strph over 26.5 points for Saturday a must with brooks out.

Everything I play today I’m also making a 2 team parlay w Steph 2marro! Want this to pay good! Lol

Yup and pra over 39.5

You look at Pts/boards?

I haven't yet but expect 8-10 rebounds, should be a ton of long boards

I would project him around 5.5 boards

Prefer Bay. C’s aren’t looking back vs Mucks unless the league gets involved.

Foster not working today.

If he’s in Dallas tomorrow that’s borderline hilarious.

Both refs today not home guys at all.

 

[2daBank]

Yup and pra over 39.5

i might play that today, glad i started those 2 teamers with steph yesterday as his points now a juiced to over 27.5,, still like it but obviously happier with the 26.5 and less juice..

thinking im gonna play poole over 21.5 points also, if klay having issues they gonna need poole to shine and think he will at home.. gotta be a trickle down effect with no brooks to guard steph that means the next guy gotta step up and should lead to a worse defender on poole.. .

not sure bout the boston/milw game but dont think im gonna get back to casino before that tips anyways.. i lean grayson allen ov 10.5 points or ov 1.5 treys (heavy juice so would only be a parlay partner), the role players usually do better at home. i think milw takes game 3 but Giannis struggling, he needs to be more efficient but probably be a game he gets his guys good looks and they knock them down..portis treys and points/rebounds also.

 

[2daBank]

imo it milw or nothing here, they the side id prefer to chase as im incredibly confident they win at least 1 at home. they did their jobs and stole home court in gm1, i think they realize the importance and win today.

 

[2daBank]

think im just sticking with the props on GS players, i like dubs but laying 7 tough considering how tight these games been.. i def dont want any part of memphis as i think warriors win both home games.

 

[B.A.R.]

Chef points prop up to an appropriate number now (28.5).

That's still a GOOD bet. I expect 30+ no issues.

yea i agree, still glad i got in early. you dont see them move up like this real often, probably telling they wernt real confident with that number! seemed pretty silly to me to hang same as it was when grizz had brooks to defend him cause he easily the best option they had and was doing a pretty good job..

Agreed on all this.

 

[2daBank]

Grabbed a little of Steph to score 35+ +300

 

[2daBank]

I preferred matz ov 16.5 outs instead his punch outs.

Random playoffs add

Lol, obviously thought I was in the baseball thread. Matz over outs should be money tho! Pretty confident he goes at least 5.2 innings: I expect he will go 6+ as San Fran been struggling against lhp. I just discovered this out prop for pitchers, I dunno how long they stay in this area but at moment think there some value as starters wernt going as deep their 1st 2-3 starts as they beginning to now. Webb ov 17.5 outs -190 a strong parlay partner also,

Well, wasn't easy lol but it cashed

 

[Gandolf]

Three series where the home team is 3-0
ATS. Something gonna have to crack soon.

I was so afraid he wasn’t gonna play enough in 4th to get there.

I really think it continues today, I like both home teams to even series up.

Foster in Philly

Damn: wanted mavs to get him.

I expect a lot to go the Sixers way today, that's for sure

I played Maxey ov 19.5 points again. If you have the option to play props live might make sense to wait. Jojo and harden got 1st cracks in gm3 but eventually Maxey get his shot and has spurts. I don’t think he scored in 1st qrtr last gm and still hit his number.

 

[2daBank]

I dunno how confident I am but I’m sticking to my story that mavs gonna make this a long series.

See my thread, will be expensive if Mavs win today. Very expensive.

Someone has to take mavs, might as well be me. Either way this most likely last time I’ll be on them.

Yeah Suns ML is square AF but I'm not upset that it opened -125 and now -155 at Heritage. Sharpest book out there, Pinny opened -109 and now -142

Definitely square but I think the best team does what good teams do after a loss, you'll never convince me that Dallas is close to the top 3 in the West

 

[2daBank]

I should have bet bowling or something, didn’t want to mess with all those mlb double headers so I don’t have anything starting til 2:30, so bored!

that probably why I have always had lot of success In playoffs! Lol. Not much they can do bout it, the better teams almost always win the series!

I’m certainly not trying to be sharp with the mavs, I just think they better than everyone else! Lol

You've only been about those three all season long

Lol. I been done trying, I’ll let their play convince you!! I think there a sizable gap between 1/2 and the rest but you will never convince me Mavs not 3rd! I’d love for there to be a loser bracket cause It be awesome for mavs to beat grizz! Im sure the truth lies somewhere in between you underrating mavs and me overrating them! Lol. Them and grizz are probably bout even, I would just take mavs vs them this year cause mavs have been in some playoff wars where as grizz experiencing that for 1st time this season.

No. I think mavs are 3rd behind suns and dubs.

 

[2daBank]

I was a big grizz fan in regular season but I said all along they were a year away from being a playoff threat. Mavs might not have won a playoff series till this year but they been in some real battles with a fully in tact clippers team the last 2 years.

Oh I've been to a Suns/Mavs playoff game and we lost, typical early Sunday where we'd lose to SA too

I'm not sure the Mavs could beat the Blazers in a best of 7, they are the epitome of a one man band

 

[2daBank]

I havnt moved off my belief it would be suns/dubs all year, I just believe mavs were the 1 team who could throw a wrench in it, or at least gonna be a tough series for whomever drew them. I don’t think that much different than my feeling been all year? I warmed more to Mavs as the season went on but until then I didn’t think anyone was challenging suns/dubs.

See this the shit you do that makes me sound so high on Mavs! Lol. You say some crazy shit showing them no respect so I come back over the top the other direction!
