BAS usually they don't come out until Friday but yeah I'm very interested to see some lines.

What do you have SAS or NYK being?

If C's a big enough dog maybe we juice free that, I'd have to see the line first I have an idea what I think every team should be. A few teams have injuries that are pending right now so tough to handicap them (Chicago, Denver come to mind)

Melo has been knocked out in the first round 8 of his 9 playoff appearances . Knick's don't play defense and Boston is always a tough out because they do. To me this set's up well to take the Celtic's at a good price.

Thunder in 5
Grizzlies in 7
Nuggets in 6
Spurs in 5
Heat in 4
Knicks in 6

Have you seen the spur's for the past month? I would be stunned to see them win in 5 against a laker's team that is 8-1 since kobe went down.

8-1 since he went down? He got hurt 4th Q on Saturday vs GState, lol.

Try 2-0

is Pierce out for season ?? you got to think if so, Knicks about 4-1, maybe 5-1

not sure what SAS will be with Kobe out

lol what? Pierce is fine, are you thinking of someone else?

Also, IF Pierce were out..Knicks be a lot bigger than 4 or 5-1. What made you think Pierce is out?

THE TRUTH WILL BE IN THE BUILDING BAS!

Lakers are 8-1 in their last 9 games without kobe, not just since his recent injury.

Kobe is my favorite player. But I have to admit this team might just be better without him at this point in his career.
I was at the game in indianapolis when they beat the pacer's without him. They already beat the spur's on the road without him. They play a different kind of team ball now. I would be shocked if laker's don't take spur's to at least 6, probably 7.

The Melo factor might come into play... but I have a feeling that Melo shows up this year..
Plus the Knicks have beaten Celtics 3 out of 4 games this season, with two at TD garden.

BAS re: Pierce, what made you think he was out? He's fine...You almost scared me man, I just got tickets to game 4 in Boston I ain't paying for this shit if The Truth just got an emergency injury!

Oh ok...Although would've been a lot bigger news story if Pierce was out for the playoffs.

FWIW, that is the one series I can't really comeup with a good line.

Chandler has been hurt, KG has been hurt.

Green/Bradley have given the Celts tons of athleticism/energy they just didn't have last year from their roleplayers. It is unfortunate Rondo got hurt because Celts would be way better than last year with him.

If I had to guess I'd guess it opens Knicks -275 or so given how well they played. Oddsmakers will give the Celts respect for past playoff success though.

I think GS is very live vs Den if Bogut is healthy (played last night so seems to be for now)

Also think LAC is a very tough matchup for Memphis
