Great game tonight. Big baby+Robinson just sealed it nicely in the 4th quarter. Bryant was awesome too but Celtics had everybody pitching in today.

Ray Allen was completely cold in game 3. KG needs to step up. Rondo has done enough throughout the post season, its time the big men come to party.

Kobe is just awesome. :hpraise

Won all my best so far except for game 2.

Got Lakers to win the series at -160 after game 2, put a sizeable chunk on it and I think Im looking good.

has the NBA finished yet, because I've recently noticed that the finals are on, and last time i looked, it was 1-1 in a 3 game series between Lakers and Magic, anyone want to explain this to me more as I want to go to the NBA match at the O2 in october but don't really know much about the structure apart from the east and west conferences.

 

[pcfan123]

The finals is a best of 7 series.

Its tied 2-2 right now

 

[harrisb]

oh right, so we're now in the final of the whole season aren't we.

 

[pcfan123]

yes LA and Boston

 

[harrisb]

oh right, damn, i knew i should of brought some boston stuff when i was over there in february. Anyway, thanks for the information mate, however, i won't be able to watch most of the matches as they are during the night in England, so I'll keep an eye on this thread.

i've just been watching some of the highlights of the finals so far, only game 3 and 4, it amazes me how reliant Lakers are on Kobe Bryant, I know he is supposed to be one of the best if not the best, but he scored 33 of the 89 points that the Lakers got in game 4, and Gasol scored something in the 20's, so between them, they're scoring over half their points. I guess it's to do with the positions, but when you look at Celtics points, they are more evenly spread.

 

[pcfan123]

That has always been the case with Kobe. He is the Lakers

 

[SciD]

Tied at 2 a piece now.

Lol at Pierce punching referee on jaw.

 

[pcfan123]

I took Lakers +2 for the next one. I think the Lakers will win it actually but Im willing to take less risk and take some points

moneyline is lakes +120 odd, but im taking the 2 points at -120.

I think la will win this 4-2

 

[SciD]

BC will win 4-3. Another heartbreak for Lakers.

 

[pcfan123]

lol sheesh I hope not, I have a lot of different bets on the Lakers,

Over the course of the series I have them at :

Lakers to win 4-0 (loss)
Lakers to win 4-2
Lakers to win 4-3
Lakers to win the series -200
Lakers to win the series -160
and
Lakers to win the series -120 (after game 2)

Lets just say most of my bankroll is on them!

I also won with the spread on games 1,3 and 4. Only game I missed was the Boston win in LA

:banana :banana2

Told ya it will be Boston 4-3. Maybe even 4-2 if they can step up one last time at home. Home form has been shaky post season in some games.

 

[pcfan123]

yea, I might be in big trouble now.

Double down on Boston to not lose by more than 7 tonight :upray
