You're obviously easily triggered. I didn't say you weren't allowed to bet the Warriors or that it was a dumb bet. But the idea that they're "superb at home" makes it an open and shut case is silly. You say I'm new to the betting game but you're hanging your hat on the most mundane of rationale.

How about another fun fact since you're only concerned with home games?

The Warriors are 2-2 straight up and 1-3 ATS in the postseason. So much for being "superb" huh?

Who cares what they did against the Rockets or the Clippers etc. when the stakes were low? It's a new season.

You sound like Johnny Vegas.

Johnny Vegas? Huh? Because I'm British? My stat might be mundane but that doesn't make it unimportant. Stats of a 4-game sample however are unimportant.

I didn't say it was an open and shut case either. I don't claim to have a 100% strike rate. I am not mad.

Your precious stat is baked into the number. What more do you want me to say? You act like you have the Holy Grail of information. I'd say the postseason is more relevant to the here and now than what the Warriors did to the Rockets back in December.

You're also overlooking a lot of other variables that are present in the regular season that are not present in the postseason, such as travel (Lakers already played and stayed in Frisco) scheduling (back to backs and whatnot) and motivation (teams don't generally take nights off when chasing a ring).

But knock yourself out with your "superb at home" angle.

You're mocking my "great at home" angle while promoting your "Lakers are not going to forefeit" angle. Get a grip man.

**IBetYou** · 05-04-23, 07:22 PM

It's not baked into the number anyway. If it were the Warriors would be 10pt favs

That's not my angle. That was one remark. The line is inflated. The Lakers are not the Kings.

Well then lets not make things too complicated. You like the Lakers. I don't. James is old, and they rely heavily upon the trio of guards that they have to run plays for Davis. Maybe it will work again in game 2. Maybe not. I don't think so.

Sure, and if you were an oddsmaker you'd be fired the same day you were hired.

If you were a bookie you'd be buried in debt.

Fortunately for you you're just betting bus passes at the bus stop. You figure you can always walk.

Another great retort.

The only difference between you and Johnny Vegas is that you don't have a hype man like Chucky the Throat in your corner.

I see 7.5 now, wow.

Yes.

I never knew where Johnny got his handle but that tracks

**homie1975** · 05-04-23, 07:41 PM

the DUBS won't have 3 guys hit 6 threes each again, but the Lakers won't own the FT advantage 29 to 6 again.

chess game between KERR and HAM begins in earnest TONIGHT

expect the DUBS to play more zone, rotate in more bigs against AD, and to attack the rim by going right at AD to try and get him in early foul trouble.

i left 1% open for a laker win because like you said anything can happen.

i also left 1% open for kordell stewart's hail mary vs michigan circa 1994.

**IBetYou** · 05-04-23, 07:42 PM

An American Johnny Vegas?

**d2bets** · 05-04-23, 07:45 PM

Looney got benched. That makes sense.

**gauchojake** · 05-04-23, 07:45 PM

There's like 5 people who post on this board but you don't know who Johnny Vegas is? 😂

Brits include the English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh. Yet you put them under the same "witty" umbrella. Really not doing much for the insular American stereotype are ya?
