Nets should win this game. They are to good of a team to let this one go down like last time. Scott is a good coach, and with Kidd out there, they should be able to hang on. It will go down to the wire, but NETS WIN!!
for the season 282-247................+33.6 units.
Lousy shooting, but they still managed 90. I see a better played 2nd half on the offensive end. over 94 for 2 units.
New jersey took another big lead. Boston made a run and Jersey held them off. I think they are more likely to keep their composure in this one. Balanced scoring from Jersey. Appears everyone has their head in the game. I'll take Jersey +5 for 3 units.
game 2-0..................+5.0 units.
for the playoffs 53-42..........+28.3 units.
for the season 284-247................+38.6 units.
You would expect the celtics to have some letdown after the big win and they did in the first quarter but have rebounded in the second to play great defense which has been winning them ballgames in the playoffs. The nets had a chance to blow this oout and failed so you know in the back of thier mind the comeback is looming. When the nets get close I would expect a fold from this net club. The celtics have made a great comeback with defense and Pierce and Walker as the rest of the team is silent. Just a little support from the others and the celtics win this one.
Getting the Celtics to win this game at +110 is damn good value. I can't argue with this play at all. Here's hoping that the Nets can't shoot 6-16 3 pointers again in the 2nd half.
This is a special circumstance, in that Jersey desperately needs this game.....the emotional letdown some thought might happen, didn't happen. We not asking Jersey to win by 12, we're just asking them to win. If anything, Celtics have the letdown after such a high on saturday. My case for the over isn't as strong. After reading the posts, I don't feel as good about it, but I've already made my play and I guess I'll stick with it. Good luck to you and everyone else.
The fact that the line is at -4.5 and -5 is relatively inconsequential. I would much rather have -6 +110 than -4.5 -110, because the chances of NJ winning by 1 to screw us is not that likely, and certainly not worth paying -110 instead of +110 on -6, which is 'really' -5.5. I'll take an extra point less if you give me 20 cents anyday.
JT THIS WAS NOT DIRECTED AT YOU OR ANYONE ELSE SPECIFICALLY, i WAS TYPING WHILE YOUR POST BECAME READABLE,...........
Yes I saw a 5 and a 4.5 at a lot of shops, I also saw a 6.5 and was getting ready to play the 4.5 <> 6.5 middle when I realized it was a 6 point margin !!!!!!:moon:
Obviously no value there for a middle, MR BOOKMAKER :thefinger
I agree with you but was referring to geno not wanting to give the six (or technically 6.5 ) and wanted him to know about the other line outs. However I appreciate your input and agree with your method.
