Mike Callahan - not popular with home teams, which are a horrible 28-47 ATS and 35-40 SU when he officiates. His totals are tilted heavily as well: 27-44 towards the under.
Joe DeRosa - he's up against Callahan tonight. (Don't let anybody tell you the playoffs are between teams). DeRosa smiles upon home teams at the tune of 50-26-2 ATS and 50-28 SU. This virtually identical record invites ATS plays. These two refs don't see eye to eye when it comes to totals either, with DeRosa clocking in at 43-34 towards the over.
Will tonight's third zebra tilt the balance?
Meet Eddie Rush. Home teams love him at a 51-22 SU rate. Home team bettors are somewhat less enamored, but still profitable at 40-32-1 ATS. His totals can be ignored at 38-34 O/U.
Gentlemen. Start your engines!
With DeRosa and Rush combining for a 101-50 SU edge for the home team, Callahan could be in for a tough night.
Good luck on the series bet.A sweep would be wonderful.. I think the Lakers take this in 5-6
Because he's King Kobe. I don't mind him getting away with shit just because he's fucking awesome, but Lebron James getting away with things drives me crazy. He's such a pussy compared to Kobe.I just don't see how SA can win the series - Kobe is allowed to throw Bowen to the side and elbow him - and it will never be an offensive foul.
One team should be up 2-1 and that ain't LA - just don't know if you can spot Kobe a game and still win - who knows - Gasol and Odom are such pussies that maybe it's possible

You are a little dramatic as usual but YEAH that first game was huge. When you are giving up home court and maybe playing a team a little better (or even equal) and are up 20 on the road....it is suicide to lose.
If we're up 2-1 like we should be - then LA is playing in an elimination game 4 and not us.
:LMAOcrazyl you're a mush
:LMAO
Nice commentary AFTER the fact....
Good luck with your wagers...
