MIAMI HEAT -- BACK-TO-BACK NBA CHAMPIONS
(Just as David $tern ordered.)
Game 1 (June 6): San Antonio 92 - Miami 88
MIA: -5 - -5.5 (UPSET)
O/U: 189 - 190 (PUSH or slight under)
FTA were 18-17 to the Spurs.
Game 2 (June 9): Miami 103 - San Antonio 84
MIA: -6 - -6.5 (COVER)
O/U: 190 (started at about 187 - 187.5 and went up, for some reason -- UNDER)
FTA dead even at 14-14.
You really didn't think they were going to let the Heat go down 2-0, did you???
Game 3 (June 11): San Antonio 113 - Miami 77
(OUCH!)
SA: -2 (BIG BIG COVER)
O/U: 187.5 - 188.5 (JUST GOT OVER)
Whistles stayed in pockets tonight! FTA were only 19-10 to the Spurs.
Game 4 (June 13): Miami 109 - San Antonio 93
MIA: -0.5 - -2 (BIG COVER - yes, Miami was the favorite, based on their record off a loss)
O/U: 186.5 - 187 (BIG OVER)
FTA: San Antonio 31 - Miami 17
FTM: San Antonio 23 - Miami 15
Game 5 (June 16): San Antonio 114 - Miami 104
If the game had a favorite at all, some books had MIA -1 (which would be an UPSET), but others had it a straight pick game.
O/U: 188.5 - 189 (with a 187.5 at my favorite, the MGM/Mirage -- ALL WENT OVER BIG)
FTA only 26-23 Spurs.
Game 6 (June 18) Miami 103 - San Antonio 100 (Overtime)
And with a 3 with 5.2 left to save the Heat. So now Stern is mixing a little Goodell in with his stuff. WOW.
MIA: -7 (with a -6.5 and a -6 mixed in. NONE OF THEM COVERED)
O/U: 191.5 - 192 (Obviously OVER with the OT. Regulation was 95-95, so they needed the OT to go over.)
FTA: San Antonio 28 - Miami 21
FTM: San Antonio 21 - Miami 16
Game 7 (June 20) Miami 95 - San Antonio 88
MIA: -5 - -5.5 (COVER, and money was coming in on the Spurs to get it from -6)
O/U: 188 - 188.5 (OVER)
Covers were 4-2 (4-3 if you had the Miami -1), over was 5-1-1 or 5-2 depending on where you got Game 1.
San Antonio had more FTA in 6 of the 7 games, and the 7th was even.
Something tells me the Spurs are going to win this series. It's already predetermined, either outcome I'm sure the NBA would be happy with.
ReplyDeleteWe will know for sure when Vegas talks.
The NBA would have to throw away three years of work (and another one of turning their backs on reality) for the Heat to lose.
ReplyDeleteA lot of people believe that the Heat will implode and have to be broken up now if they don't win this title and many more.
Yep you're right, that's just the inner dream land talking in me. Spurs are dead.
DeleteThe Heat win this series, and we're going to really see the marketing of them being the new Bulls from the 90's, remember that big 3? I'd like to see someone draw comparison of the marketing and selling of "The Big 3" Bulls of the 90's and how the Heat are marketed today.
