Isaiah Thomas done

Hahahaha CLE

 

[Mudcat]

That was cute and everything but can we just get on with the final?

 

[Mudcat]

Thinking of making a signature bet on the final series. Need to see the line of course though.

Golden State would be my play.

 

[Mudcat]

LeBron James passes Michael Jordan to become NBAs all-time playoff scoring leader

That seems significant. We know that Michael took a big break in mid-career - but then Lebron has a long time to go and will probably stomp all over that number by the time he's done.

 

[Mudcat]

Hmm, Golden State -290. I was hoping for a better number.

If I was really betting, I see all kinds of value in Cleveland +256.

But SigPlays aren't about grinding for long-term results. No play.

If I was really betting

Why aren't you now that you're making good money? Small side fund to try to grow?

They said this morning that it's Lebron James' 7th NBA finals in a row. Impressive.

 

[Mudcat]

Why aren't you now that you're making good money? Small side fund to try to grow?

Because betting is a losing proposition. No interest in throwing away my hard-earned money.

I assume I could make money if I set myself up with proper research sources and spreadsheets and constant gathering and updating of data - I know exactly what I would do - but it would take every bit of my spare time. I got other things to do.

And betting is not peaceful. It's an obnoxious presence in the psyche. It pushes nice things off to the side.

I want my nice things front and center.

good answer muddy

Headline on NBA.com


Warriors, Cavs can be title contenders for years to come



Thanks for the newsflash.

 

[Mudcat]

What is with this stupid series though? Still have to wait until Thursday for game 1 - then they play every 3 days (with one exception of 2 days between games 3 and 4.)

But seriously, come on you buncha choads ---> DO WORK

 

[Mudcat]

Well so

I guess we are actually gonna do this.

 

[Mudcat]

GSW is -300 for tonight's game and also the series.

Cleveland is loving being the underdog. They have nothing to lose.

Is something I might say if I was really stupid.

 

[roguejuror]

finally

 

[MrMonkey]

KD and Curry were just better than LeBron and Irving! What I notice was the team defense of the Cavs not strong enough and the Warrior defense way better than anything Cleve has seen so far! GS might have won even easier if they didn't miss so many open looks especially close to the basket!

Also scoring wise Green (only guy on GS I can't stomach) wasn't there and Thompson was like 3-16 from the field including 0-5 from 3PT land! RJ, looks like continuing to play horrible like you stated earlier in the playoffs!

This guy has to be this aggressive guy for the Cavs to have a good shot at winning this .....

It was like Groundhog Day on how times this play seem to happen last night! Unreal!

 

[Mudcat]

Some ridiculous defense there. They might as well have just laid out a red carpet the length of the court to the hoop.
