Planning to slow down a bit until the Conference Semis are in, maybe just one bet a day until those are done so that disciplined budgetting for bets is followed

[zimpy27]

i have no doubts Knicks can finish this in 5 games, what i am worried about is the game to game basis-- Indiana is capable of making it close and just scary for a regular 5.5 points spread throughout the series and i don't think New York covers easily (like in Game 1)

I mean Knicks shot the lights out and barely won tonight at home. I think Pacers will win Game 2.

Move that guarantee to Game 3 (after the calls tonight) so we're on the same page. LOL.

i believe Indy wins that game, proceeds to lose Games 4 and 5 and Knicks finish this early. If OG is indeed hurt, they can push this to six games and my Knicks -1.5 series bet is still safe.

I mean Pacers are winning the OREB and TO battle. Knicks are winning because they can't miss from outside and they draw more fouls.

I'm not sure how this is sustainable but maybe it is. Playoffs can be unpredictable.

i do think the Pacers are capable of winning those couple of games in Indy. Game 3 is pretty much a given (they are favored by 6.5 pts) and would expect same odds in Game 4. This should be lower if OG is guaranteed to play and i still feel New York will have a shot of stealing the latter game.

Series bets update:

Knicks -1.5 for series looks bad now, as is the Wolves +1 and Maveicks ML. Still a shot at winning those too but secretly chalking that up to losses so we know what budget to work with moving forward. LOL

Lost Knicks series bet (-1.5) but won the Mavs series bet. A couple more undecided (Wolves and Celtics series bets).

Not sure who to take in the couple of Game 7s Sunday...

G7 Knicks -2.5 $70
G7 Knicks-Pacers Under 208.0 $70
G7 Nuggets-Wolves Under 198.5 $70

You should have listened to me.. I came out with a huge win!


I think Pacers to win championship is a great bet if you have cash out option. They are at 30-to-1 odds. Series odds vs Boston are 8-to-1. They could easily shock Boston, odds should be more like 4-to-1.
