CELTICS +160 for series= value.

At bet Jam for a couple o units

locally for a nickel



Really, the Lakers are not that good, especially defensively where they should be almost 2-1 favorites. This is VALUE.

I think Blaze is right. There is some value in taking the best team in the East, who has home court advantage and is the better defensive team.

The Lakers might win, but this series is not as one sided as people think. (At least what I think)

I lean towards Celtics in 7

On another note, I am really sick and tired of Boston sports. I think we'll probably find out that, the Celtics and Red Sox have cheated as well

hit em hard enough this playoffs wont hurt too much if i do lose. celtics more than capable, and KG is the most hungry player on the court. i think that make +180 very worth it.
