NBA FINALS GAME 7

[lastsamurai]

Detroit + 4.5
It seems like Tim Duncan hasnt been playing up to his potential.... Just a gut feeling...not going to play big...any takes on this?

[TRWIII]

Im planning on taking detroit with the points. The spurs have looked like a kid whose candy got stolen after getting beaten decisively each time. If it werent for Horry, you could argue this would already be over. Especially after being baten at home, I dont see San Antonio besting Larry Browns team, and Im taking the pistons with the points.

Then again i dont wager basketball often , because I know basically jack squat about it, so take it with a grain of salt.

TRWIII

I like the money line: 2-1 for a Pistons win. Why is this priced so high? Detroit has been in every game, although the comebacks in 1 and 2 fell pretty short. I feel like it's 60-40 proposition, maybe less.

Does this mean I'm falling right into their trap?

That's where I put my $. I think that Ginobili is a little off his game as well...Indy

I logged on to place my bet late last night. As planned I took Detroit and the points. Since I was tired, I didn't think to even look at the moneyline until after I place the bet with the points.

Seemed too good to pass up for I went back for more and took the moneyline as well.

I haven't bet sports since February after losing $1000 (I was just messing around/following some picks/chasing a bonus)...on spur of the moment (pun not intended), I place $100 on the moneyline for Detroit and another $82 or so on a moneyline/under parlay. Whee.

[homedog]

San Antonio is going to win tonight. Obviously being at home for game 7 is huge. But just as important to me is the line moving from 5.5 to 4.5. If Joe Public loves the Pistons, then Home Dog loves the Spurs.

[Macdaddy Warsaw]

Fading me is probably the correct play anyway. Given how close oddsmakers can get to 50/50, I run incredibly bad at sportsbetting.

[mace25]

well, i am on the reverse MONEYLINE..........


pistons -4.5! for +350

worked last game!

[lastsamurai]

seems like everybody is pounding detroit...smells like a vegas trap.... i might just not put action on this game...UNLESS I AM FRICKEN BORED AND PLAY IT FOR $25 lol

[allinbaby]

In the beginning of the series, I bet $60 to win $450 on Pistons winning the series in game 7.

I also have $425 to win $550 on Timm Duncan winning the MVP.

If Spurs win and Tim Duncan gets the MVP, I make a nice profit here. But if Pistons win, I break about even. Now, being the gambler I am, I don't like breaking even. Therefore, to make watching the game more interesting, I am going to bet $400 on Spurs gameline.

What do you guys think?

[allinbaby]

On second thought, I don't think Spurs @ -220 has enough value. I will just go bet on props.

[hogua]

Wow, you're giving up 4.5 points (vs the "standard" moneyline) and gaining less than +150. I don't have the stomache for that, but more power to you.

Good luck!

Some props I took at Pinnacle:

Ben Wallace Blocks + Steals over 3.5 @ 1.746
Total points scored in game < 164.5 and > 184.5 @ 1.813
Total 3 point FG made by Horry under 1.5 @ 2.180
Parker Free Throw Attemps Over 3 @ 1.769

any comments?

[homedog]

This contradicts with your Horry under 1.5 three pointers but I absolutely love the prop "Will Horry make a three pointer in the 4th quarter or overtime?" YES +140.

Well, he will definitely shoot a couple in the fourth quarter if the game is close. But I don't see him shooting more than four 3-pointers in the game.

Bet the Farm on Detroit 2:1 Moneyline. I think they have a bit more heart then the Spurs.

Did you bother to do any research before putting down real money on these bets? I wouldn't be surprised if you lost all of them.
