Barkley has made his bookie a lot of money. When he calls anything you can almost always go the other way and be right.AmareIsGod wrote: ↑Sat Jun 19, 2021 9:59 pmReally Work? Jeesh. Forever the optimist. I mean, they don't have Kawhi Leonard and you still want to call it impossible if CP3 is out?

I talked to Richard Dreyfus about the series, and he told me Wormie was one of his filters..."Who do you like in the WCFs?" Answer...response..."LOSER"

They did a new nerve blocker thing at my foot long scar site they said similar to what they use on pregnant women. I have felt zero pain from the scar. Pretty amazing the things they do nowadays.virtual9mm wrote: ↑Sat Jun 19, 2021 4:26 amYou mentioned that she was a big time gymnast when we met like...20 years ago? I can see why she was unhappy, I was about two tiers down from the national team in a club sport about two years ago and the people who were more or less pros just had much better connections, etc.
How are you feeling today?

+170 (35.1%) Bucks +275 (25.2%) Suns +425 (18.0%) Clippers +425 (18.0%) 76ers +2500 ( 3.6%) Hawks
EC Championship:

WCF Game 1:
-175 (60.9%) Suns +145 (39.1%) ClippersInteresting that the betting markets give us a much better chance in the WCF than in the Finals. I actually feel more comfortable about the Finals, due to the CP3 situation.

Re: Suns News: Playoffs Edition
What excuse can they possibly have for favoring the Bucks over the Suns? We had the better record, we have homecourt advantage, and we beat them 2-0 in the regular season. I don't get it.Cap wrote: ↑Sun Jun 20, 2021 10:28 amLatest odds.

Does it matter?
In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.

Re: Suns News: Playoffs Edition
People don't understand that the betting lines aren't based on the best teams but on who's betting on them. Their goal is to get as close to an equal amount on both sides as possible.

But why are more people betting on the Bucks? They must be thinking Chris Paul won't be 100% after Covid.

Re: Suns News: Playoffs Edition
I mean the bucks are really good and they have the best remaining basketball player left. I don’t think we should be obvious favorites over them. Ya we beat them twice, but once without Jrue and the other at the buzzer thanks to some free throws.

Who do you think wins in a hypothetical finals match up? Suns or bucks?
