SPURS MINUS 5 OVER LAKERS TONIGHT, BUT WHAT WILL THE LINE CLOSE AT?

THE SHRINK · May 13, 2004

This is a thread to test your gambling IQ...

We all know how well the Home Team and Favorites have done in the Playoffs this year...

We also know that the Lakers are the most Public team out there right now too...

Many betting syndicates aren't playing now because they believe the lines are too sharp this time of year (and I agree)...

Given all of the above, what do you think the line will close at tonight, at least in most places...

I will start and guess SPURS minus 4 1/2...

Maxdemo,

WOW!

I bet there are many gamblers, including myself, hoping you are right, lol...

By the way, I will talk to the new owners about giving a way a FREE RX polo shirt to all posters who guess the CLOSING line correctly on tonight's game!

Closing line where? Is this a trick question. For example last night, Kings closed anywhere from 5 to 6 1/2. Best Wishes...OF

I have to admit I dont see the number getting that high..but it should be at least 6 to 6.5 IMO. The spurs play alot better at home than on the RD. JMO

Spurs -4

Let's use the average of the closing lines at GRANDE, CRIS, and PINNACLE since I believe these 3 sports book to have the sharpest lines out of all there are out there...

Who ever is closest to the average, rounded to the nearest half point wins, ok?

P.S.

Can I middle maxdemo and JimFeistSux?
