C's need to win one game

[PatsFan1283]

I dont think they blew their load.

they've been looking very good this whole playoff series (collectively)

funny, after losing to atlanta and before the bulls game, my son and i were joking around saying "do we want to beat the bulls or have a chance at wemby"?

I mean they've definitely played over their heads last 3 games. Up 3-0, you don't gotta do too much more to win but if the finals starts and Caleb Martin isn't providing James Worthy secondary scoring anymore, no one is gonna be shocked. Dude is on 1 right now.
Vincent has been really inconsistent his whole career as well.

Guys like Love/Robinson would be significantly more challenged to stay on the court vs a better offense as well. That's an indictment on the Celtics they're allowed to play so much (although Celts actually have done a pretty good job attacking Love in this series, then he's the 1 that gets hurt, can't even win with the injuries)

Thought about it for a day....I kinda think Brown is gone

Wouldn't throw a wager on it, but just gut feeling

 

[Greenbacks]

Heat probably should have (or easily could have) beaten the Celtics last year tbh.

Heat shot 13-75 from 3 in their last two home games.

Stop with the wouldn't, couldn't, shouldn't BS
They went to the finals

Wouldn't be shocked if some roles players come back down to earth, but I'm not sure how Jimmy and Bam aren't going to pressure the rim all series long

Herro also could be coming back, which in this particular series would actually help a lot.

Denver is actually a pretty mediocre defensive team, and downright bad in terms of protecting the rim.

 

[crudebar]

Think I am taking the Celtics tonight for a smaller wager. Will throw a grand down on the ML.

 

[Greenbacks]

They melted down plenty last season also

Lol
They went to the finals.
You guys make a good tag team

You hear it all the time here with LeBron stuff though.

"If Ray Allen doesn't hit that corner 3"

"If Draymond doesn't get suspended"

Can't have it both ways.

Point was that it was a tight series last year, so a little shocking the price this year though Heat obviously sucked a little more in the regular season

I think Jokic can play drop coverage vs Bam/Butler well enough. He struggles in space and when they get downhill but Denver is pretty much built around hiding his weaknesses and has years of experience figuring it out. He stays pretty stout 1 on 1 though, hard to go through, great hands.

They just played AD/Bron and KD/Book and besides some Book insane shooting, they weren't stressed too much defensively. Few bad games but mostly held up.

He's also just a machine on offense, which is going to tax Bam to lengths he's never had to deal with before.

Don't forget, one of LeFlop's rings is a Mickey Mouse ring.

I knew you’d chime in lol

 

[DoublePlayBall]

All I know is THIS. The Boston Celtics have destroyed me when betting on and The Denver Nuggets have won each time I've begged. I want to see the matchup of Denver - Miami. Can't recall why, but I dislike Pat Riley to the max.

 

[CHOPTALK]

If there was ever a series where a team can comeback from 0-3 it’s this one

 

[DoublePlayBall]

Above LOL well it would break a 150 SERIES cycle... notta gonna even think about it..

Most of the time when a team is down 0-3 they are the inferior team . But in this case the best team is down 0-3
Boston has gone on plenty of 4 game winning streaks .

I think there is value in +800

 

[Greenbacks]

Shock the world

 

[Michelangelo]

Celtics are not the better team in this series.

Their offense is a mess. Their defense is very bad compared to this time last year.

And their coach has no idea what needs to be done to pull these guys together and get them to play to the skill level that they are capable of playing to.

I'm not expecting them to pull it together for even this one game tonight. They certainly are not gonna win this series. Save your longshot money, Chop. It ain't happening.

The real value is the winning it all bet

I bet that +1700
If they were to comeback and win this series they will easily be the fav vs Denver

Keep your money in your pocket, bro. This team isn't gonna win this series. That precludes them from winning the next.

They are playing like shit on both sides of the ball. Individually and collectively. And the coach can't find a way to help them. And give Miami credit. Jimmy Butler is excelling in all aspects of the game. So is Bam. NOBODY on the Celtics is playing to their seasonal level. Never mind above it.

Maybe that changes for one game but I doubt it. They are devoid of the kind of leadership they need right now. Jason Tatum ain't that guy. Jalen Brown ain't that guy.

Forget it.
