Sun Gm 7s -- should be great TV

[LordofBalls]

*NBA getting what it wants with an exciting finish in OKC/Mavs y'day, and 2 game 7s to finish the week today!
*Balance of Power w/only the Celts easing into the Conf Finals.. should be 2 good ones today, and dramatic TV.
*PGA w/a bundle at the top of the leaderboard..
drama/drama/drama!

**I believe the Pacers to be the better team, not as mentally tough as the Knicks as they turn into a diff animal in front of that crowd at the Garden.. but more offensive talent, deeper team!
Have to play w/the infamous "warrior mentality" and battle like they did at home the other night.. we'll see!

I've got a 4tm parlay w/1 open and I will decide whether to hedge or not in Pacers/Knix game

12:30 pst.. Pacers @ Knicks

I'm on Pacers Series.. 333/999

W/W/W/Knicks ML <--- 37/323 (Hedge w/Knicks ML in my parlay)
OR
W/W/W/Pacers ML <--- 37/488
================================
T-Wolves Series
310/511

Nuggets Series
160/280

I like Minn +pts.. if they don't freak out at a gm 7 lol

Good luck! I took Pacers to win series after Game 1. I've thought about hedging but think I'm gonna roll w Pacers tonight plus the points.

I've got Dallas/Denver ML Parlay. I won some money on Seize The Grey in yesterday's Preakness. I had 3 horses so of course lost a little on the other two but won at 10-1 on Seize The Grey! I put a little on Dallas -3 last night and ended up following the last few mins online.

This is the second time that late in a crucial playoff game that the refs call the old "foul away from the ball" and give the other team a one-shot technical. I didn't see it but I saw the one a couple weeks ago and it just seems like bullshit. I get the whole concept of not allowing teams to play Hack-A-Shaq but it just seems like one more thing refs can do to control a game.

The other one I saw it in was Pacers/Knicks Game 1. Pacers down by 1 w 10 seconds and they call the suspect moving screen to give the ball back to Knicks. Then on the inbounds they call a foul before the ball is thrown in that gives the Knicks one shot and the ball. Then a regular foul gives them 2 more so they go up by 4 on three free throws and that pretty much ends the game.

It is what it is though. How do the defending champs give up a 27-2 run in a playoff game? How do these teams look great one minute and then forget how to play basketball the next? I'm hoping to see Boston/Dallas but at the same time I can barely watch. Been working a lot and just trying to give myself something to do and hopefully make a little $$.

Anyhoo - I think I'll take Pacers plus the points tonight and I have the ML w the series price...and then may hedge on Denver and take Twolves plus the points and try to middle it. Good luck to us and let's go Pacer People!! lol

TDJ, both the calls you bring up about fouls called before the inbounds were crucial and
makes you question things, makes ME question anyway lol

hope refs don't pull that BS again! Pacers are the BETTER team imo!
If Knicks advance it'll be over in 4.. and not in their favor.

GL and GO Pacers!


Been thinking about the Knix/Pacers total.. opened 208.5 --- now 207.5

for Knix to have any chance, I gotta believe they take the air out of the ball..
Pacers running game is a level above imo.. if it turns into a track meet, pacers win easy imo.

I'm gonna do a little parlay:

Pacers ML/Under 208.5/(open).. 50 or so

g'luck everybody!

 

[LordofBalls]

and I filled in my open parlay with...

Pacers +3.5 <--- 37/353

 

[LordofBalls]

Pacers starting out very well on offense!
OG Anunoby has 2 3ptrs in his first 2 shots for 6 of the Knix 10 pts..
I do NOT think he'll last the game hobbling like Willis Reed up n down the court.

Hart not showing signs of any issues yet.

It looks like Pacers today barring freakish plays.. and leaving Divencenzo open for EVery 3pt shot lol

he's got 3 3s.. OG has 2.. 15 of their 16 pts lol

just shadow him and deny the ball.. don't help anybody else

and I tried to put in my parlay and was too late.. thankfully lol.. they're into the 40s and only halfway thru the qtr

Pacers up 17 halfway thru 2nd qtr.. looks like things are going according to my plan
j/k... it ain't over yet!
