"if Duncan doesnt pick up foul #4..."
yup, my thoughts exactly. But how did he pick up foul #4?
Because they CALLED foul #4.
in SA G5 they let them play, Kobe got some extra contact driving to the basket that went uncalled- in LA G4 if you looked at a Laker wrong it was a foul. LA has an adv if this turns into a FT shooting contest, I look for the zebras to make it one- if need be. I would be shocked to see SA win in this situation- not b/c they arent the better team, but b/c of what is at stake. I've been watching the SAC/LA series from last year, I feel the BS calls or lack of are part of the 'script' if need be this year as well. I got down on LA -4.5 the minute the line came out. If this hits 6 I may middle for a small amount but I doubt it, I dont want to give up my initial position. It would be nice if the 1st half total lands on 94 again!! I'll look into that SAC total, one thing that worries me is if one team gets cold, or misses 3 pointers...I was planning to look more at the 2nd half total.
My strategy from here on out is pretty much 2% of BR on the majority of sides for the remaining games. 1% on most everything else. Over the past few years I've hit over 60% on plays during the conference finals and NBA finals, so I raise the stake just as I did in the NFL playoffs. Just as long as I hit 53% on the plays...been making some jack in bases which takes a lot of the pressure off. Best of luck guys, I got down on PHI already as well like that play maybe even more.
