yup. . .ill never forget that game against milwaukee he made like 8/8 or 9/9 or something when he was a knick. he is unstopable behind the arc when he gets it going. i have no idea why he lacked confidence first few game against sacramento. . .spree can stroke it

I'm just crossing my fingers and hoping for a miracle.... Go Minn....

Several years ago the 76ers were 3-2 going home for game six against Boston. The Sixers lost game six and did the impossible and went on the road and beat Boston in game 7. Never say Never. The Lakers should win at home tonight. They are a big favorite to close out series but they are no lock.

whormoan · May 31, 2004

Winky, can't think of any reason the Lakers wouldn't win at home except for the fact that NOTHING has been easy for this team this yr. Derek Fisher is now HIGHLY QUESTIONABLE for tonight's game, and I wouldn't be surprise if the "POWERS THAT BE" drag this out to 7 games, forcing the Lakers to win in 7. Good luck tonight

SHACK · May 31, 2004

I agree with you Winky. Lakers didn't try too hard in game 5, they were saving it for tonight. Lakeshow has won every game in this series that they needed to. This is another one they need to win not to give up home court.

DarrylParsons · May 31, 2004

Winky,

Your reasons are irrational but I like the Lakers tonight as well. I am probably going to buy points and take LA - 5.5 for -170. That -500 is a bit steep and there is a cemetary near my house full of people who used the "lock" word a bit too often

TheGeneral+ · May 31, 2004

Lakers look nice

Dante · May 31, 2004

I will say this

I have known winky dinky duck for a few years and he rarely uses the word lock... that said I hope General did not JINX dat shit with his post above

-Slim- · May 31, 2004

General just helped winky carry the cross for the next hour and a half....

TheGeneral+ · May 31, 2004

LA is doing whatever they want.

BillDozer · May 31, 2004

O'neal is looking for an early exit. 4 fouls in the 2nd.

FunkSoulBrother · May 31, 2004

Laker fans sure don't seem used to getting 5 more fouls than the opposition in a quarter. Booing like crazy. Funny

trytrytry · May 31, 2004

winky can you tell us if the front end of the parlays are all alive or not? Best of luck.

TheGeneral+ · May 31, 2004

Lakers dominate the 4th.

Oren1 · May 31, 2004

68-71 lakers! 10 minutes to go!

Generals probably right, they;ll dominate teh 4th.

good luck Winky, hope the Lakers only win by 8 though.

Oren1 · May 31, 2004

wow, minny 23-25 at the line, 92%! Lakers are 41% at the line, 10-24!

ouch . that's gotta hurt if you took the Lakers -8.5.... or not... maybe they'll still cover right?

Dante · May 31, 2004

Winky...

.you just went thru a WAR man... you had to survive your "LOCK" and then you had to survive The General

Launching a SCUD missle that hit when he said "The lakers look good" for a bit and allowed the wolves to comeback on you..

MAN I feel for you sir

congrats but send that RUSH guy for the lakers some dough he was NAILS from 3 land

wilheim · May 31, 2004

well, 1 was - 1 wasn't. 1 of the front ends was the Bolts in the NHL in a game that started about 1 hour ahead of time. the other was the sabado gigantes in MLB in a game that started after the lakers. both parlays got to the window for a nice night.

Fezzik · May 31, 2004

Winky gets my nomination for horrible post of the month.

Mind boggling.

Don't shop around and chunk bet the ML at the best odds you can find.

Rather, be a total square and suggest you blindly parlay it to 'everything' you are betting. Presumably haphazardly ignoring line value along the way.

What's the justification? To avoid the -500 "bet 5 to make 1" rationale.

Sure it won (most 9 point favorites do win, in fact over 80% of them). But it still doesn't stop me from getting a defining opinion on Mr. Winky.

And I cannot believe he is getting accolades for such a bad piece of advice.

I see a 21 player stand on A7 vs. 9, I know he loses at this. Sure, the dealer might flip an 8 and the table will all say "nice call". But it doesn't change the fact that it was a lousy play.
