Oldman's Proposition Bet - L.A./Denver

[oldmanTED]

Carmelo Anthony Over 26.5 Points (-160)

Below are Melo's points scored through the first 5 games of this series. Keep in mind that in Game 4, he was ill and had to have an IV as well as he injured his ankle during the game. He looked very healthy in Game 5. With this being a close out game for L.A. expect to see Melo in full attack mode tonight both shooting and driving and getting to the free throw line.

5/27 (@ L.A.): 31
5/25 (@ Denver): 15
5/23 (@ Denver): 21
5/21 (@ L.A.): 34
5/19 (@ L.A.): 39

Good luck everyone!

I think I'll put 1000.00 on this one just for fun.

(For those who may not know, I'm just joking. I'm NOT betting $1000 on this game.)

I think it's a good play. I bet on the under for Melo's last game because I thought his ankle was still bad. I guess he stepped it up because Billups wasn't shooting well.

This is in Denver and the Nuggs need this game so I think he will go balls out. Thanks for posting Ted.

OVER 14.5 3pts made (-115)

Average Home/Away for both teams is just over 14

past three games, 11, 17, 10

Time to revert to the average with a nice Over

 

[sumday]

I took the over 36.5 for Melo. Pts/Assists/Rebounds.

 

[crazyivan]

A few props I like are the following:

J.R. Smith Under 14 pts (+135)
Trevor Ariza +2.5 pts/reb vs Kenyon Martin (-120)
Chauncey Billups Under 26.5 pts/ast (+105)
Lamar Odom Over 20.5 pts/reb (+140)

Ted: Kobe on Melo alot in 1st 1/2 & LAL with a lead it is likely Kobe will make sure Melo does not bring Denver back, Melo has to get to the line in 2nd to get ya the $$$, as always gl on ur action

 

[sumday]

Melo killing me. I need him to get more aggressive. He's playing like a zombie. At least get me some rebounds and assists.

 

[quantumleap]

I think Melo had 14 points in the 1st half of the last game. Tonight he has 12 points in the 1st half. Plenty of time for him to score more in the 2nd.

I am convinced Melo is hurting & has been for the last few games, ankle or back I am sure of it after watching him shoot tonight.

He was hobbling at the end of the last game but played through the pain. Could still be the same thing tonight.

You are 100% correct, pain like that does not go away in 2 days, Melo is a great player, love seeing him at 100% , I believe it is the ankle because all his shots are falling short & that is usually because of weak push off with legs.
