  1. Easy win by the Clips, just as I expected; but once again, I don't think they can win a Game 7 on the road! There is a reason why more than 80% of the home teams win Game 7 on their home floor (they are usually the better team, were the better team in the regular season, and get that extra energy from the home crowd); in this particular case, if the game was being played at Staples, the Clippers would move on; these two teams are so evenly matched, and it will be sad to see this series end; it's too bad that the winner of this will be blown away in the Conf. Finals! Let us move on:

    Play:

    DETROIT -5 (everyone knows I'm not one to lay points on the road, but I will do it here with the Pistons; they will be focused tonight with their backs against the wall; most might think that the pressure is on Detroit, but I disagree b/c they have been in this spot before; I think the pressure is all on the Cavs to close out b/c they won't go back to Detroit and win a Game 7)

    Opinion:

    DALLAS -1.5 (I really don't know what to think here, but it seems to me that San Antonio has worked so hard for their baskets and Dallas has made many easy shots, layups, and dunks; the Spurs looked as if they dominated that last game, but yet, they only one by one point; I'll pass and root for the Spurs)

    ML Play:

    DETROIT -260 (I'll roll with Detroit winning this game SU as well, just in case we see a close game with the Pistons prevailing in the end)

    Playoff Record: 21-17

    Punchouts: 6-3

    Opinions: 17-11

    ML Plays: 17-8 (+10.6 Units)

  3. ...Hey Mike...I think you might see Jdelt and I agree on game 7. And nice hit on Hamels, your not allowed to play fantasy MLB with us, you know the whiz kids too well. I'm on the same game as Mike, but playing the side.

    ROLL WITH ME ON THE MINNESOTA TWINS +135 ML Today..

    Liriano/Davis must go.

    The under is a good play as well that Mike posted. Francisco Liriano is the next big thing in the AL and I'm excited to watch him pitch tonight. He's going to be on a pitch count of 70, but I'll take it.

    MLB: 8-3 ATS

    NBA: 7-7 ATS

    2-1 yesterday

    I might be back with a play on the Pistons game, I'm still deciding. And I might have a battle of chicago play. Go Cubs go..you got a lean? I like the over 8 1/2 -105..but not strong enough to recommend yet.

    Take care all,

  4. Well the clips handed it to the suns as I said they would... at least suns got til monday night to rest up for that crucial game 7... havent checked to see if any line up yet - doubt it somehow, but it will be close... with suns winning of course....

    Tonight, I like 1 play:

    Cleveland +6 -120 (buying halfpt) & Spurs ML +105 - double

    going with it... I really dont see detroit losing, but then I thought the pistons would be done with the cavs in 5max. Also you have detroits wonderful record in elimination games 8-2 SU & ATS... yeah... I still like lebron... if the cavs can keep it close for 3 quarters, then lebron can turn it on in the 4th again. I think that detroit deserve to be knocked on their ass tonight and in part that is why i'm playing it. there is going to be a phenomenol atmosphere in there tonight and that could be enough to carry cavs to a huge upset.

    Spurs, going into a hothouse tonight, and normally I'd take em no probs, but this mavs team is tough. terry's suspension will affect them for sure, but only in so far as it will limit the mavs ability to changeup during the game. I see manu and parker taking this game over and helping duncan out - who btw has been awesome this series. I had picked mavs to go through but duncans play this series has showed everyone he is still the #1 big guy in the league (for my money) and I now believe spurs can win series, starting tonight of course!

    gl all,

    TQ :wink:
