Re: NBA Playoffs
Note: I played a 1.00 unit average during the regular season with a
1.50 maximum but believe the prices currently are much
easier to beat and am moving way out to a 5.00 average and
a 10.00 unit maximum
Cleveland - 170 vs Washington (series play) 5.00 units
Washington's first mistake was to insult Cleveland and Lebron
James in pre series public comments, with Gilbert Arenas stating
that the Wizards wanted Cleveland in the first round and
DeShawn Stevenson claiming James was over rated...Their
second problem is that Caron Butler and Stevenson both
had problems coming back off their injuries in Game One,
and the Cavs seem to have a knack of beating this team
when they have to.
Utah + 1 vs Houston (Game Two) 10.00 units
The Rockets just don't appear to be a playoff team with both Yao
Ming and Rafer Alston out of their lineup, and the Jazz have something
to gain by sweeping, since the LA Lakers just might do the
same in their series.
Boston + 145 (to win the title) 8.00 units
The feeling here is that the Celtics are well above the rest of the
East, have done very well vs the best of the West during
the regular season, and will likely be the much fresher team
when the finals begin, if they are involved.
