2 points more from Derrick White for 1 parlay.
7 more from Tatum for the other.

Re: Sports Gambling
Thank you Celtics OT moneyline.
I held off on the 9.5pt line pregame and was waiting and waiting for a decent Celtics in game moneyline (because a game 1 spread that big scared me), which never really came until it looked like they were going to lose. Once Brown hit that 3 to tie it the moneyline dropped to +100, I was too chicken, but got them at -200 to begin OT and put my entire balance on them.

Re: Sports Gambling
I got them live ML at -180 when they were down in the 4th. Looked like I was going to regret that til Jaylen hit the 3.
Celtics have been very good to me this season.

Re: Sports Gambling
I was shocked at just how long they stayed fairly big favorites on the live ML deep into the 4th.
Re: Sports Gambling
Possible heavy bets were coming in on live Celtics...but also look what happened.
Celtics won.

Re: Sports Gambling
True. Although it took a miracle 3 and a dumb turnover from Indy to get there.
If I was willing to cheer against the Celtics there were some attractive ML bets for Indy late when they were winning but still an underdog.
Re: Sports Gambling
Not sure i'd call that 3 a miracle but ok.
There were like 5-6 seconds left and Jaylen shoots 40% from 3 at the Garden.

Re: Sports Gambling
Maybe not a miracle...but it was forced, and against good defense (+ maybe even a foul).
When he took it I felt like they could have gotten a better look with another pass or 2 (and I was shocked it went it)...but then you run the risk of not getting it off in time considering only 6-7 seconds left when he caught it.
Glad they won. They deserve the title this year.

Re: Sports Gambling
It was a set play going to Jaylen.
He admitted as such in the interview right after the game.
Smart to get a shot off that early because with another pass you run the risk of not having a chance at a rebound and second shot and/or an actual miracle buzzer beater if you needed to foul ( and Indy somehow missed their FTs ).

Re: Sports Gambling
Mazzulla made the right call there - he's been known to not use his timeouts ( he didn't do that last season which was infuriating ).
I think he's a bottom tier coach still.
He can't get his team to not play at dictated pace often enough and if the 3's aren't falling, he doesn't know how to direct ( and set screens for ) Tatum and Brown to drive at every opportunity.
Sounds gross ( MIZZOU guy ) but Quin Snyder would be awesome for the Celtics.

Re: Sports Gambling
Thought I was going to have a bad night. Turned out to be decent. Made a little money.
Idiot me went to bet the Wolves -2.5 when the game started and when I hit place bet and it asked me if I accepted the line change I accepted it. It was Wolves -4.5.
Decided to slightly hedge myself and took the Mavs money line. Figured I would end up losing both bets.
Then midway in the 4th the Mavs were still the dog and I put a little more on the Mavs money line.
Thank you Mavs.
I had the Fever (now 0-5) +6 against the Storm. = SMALL W
I had the NY Rangers. = SMALL L That was embarrassing - for me and the Rangers.
I wanted to bet the Braves over the Cubs and forgot to do it until I saw the Braves were up 2-0 so I didn't bet it. That would have been a W.

Re: Sports Gambling
I had a feeling Dallas would keep it close - didn't expect them to win.
Teased Dallas +7.5 and the under to 214.5 ( whew ) for +112.
Tonight i'm teasing up the Indy line and teasing down the over.
I'll also probably take Haliburton 15+ or 18+.

Re: Sports Gambling
Went in on Wolves and Ant tonight.
So far so good.*
*3-11 isn't good but he has 13 points at half

Re: Sports Gambling
I aced the game - and of course bet basically nothing.
Mavs +5.5 -110 at 7:56 $5.70 returned $10.88
Mavs +5 -106 at 8:11 $2 returned $3.89
Mavs +10.5 -110 at 8:36 $2.50 returned $4.77
I'M RICH BITCH!
Shame I didn't bet them straight up.

Re: Sports Gambling
I jinxed em…stopped watching and Dallas came back.
Edwards bro…5-17?
No sweat though so I’ll bet on the Celtics game with the bonus.

Re: Sports Gambling
Not your fault the Wolves let you down.
Go get that $ back that the Wolves (not Mavs) stole from you.
Go Celts!

Edwards needed 25 though too so it’s wasn’t just the team—it was Ant.
