  1. @ESPNSteinLine And the Spurs are 11-0 their last 11 after a 15-point (or worse) defeat (since March 2010). But they were favored in 9 of 11
  2. By inserting @manuginobili into starting lineup, Spurs would have 2 ballhandlers and penetrators on the court, and would stress OKC Defense.
  3. Spurs OKC tip off in 30 minutes. OKC fave by 3.5. I would love to see @manuginobili in the starting lineup. Time to take the gloves off!
  4. Heat Celtics series numbers down from 2011's Heat Bulls series. TV Network Honchos would love Heat Thunder Finals, but Heat/Spurs OK too.
  5. Spurs Thunder drawing stronger TV ratings than last year's Mavs Thunder series, and among the best Western Conf Finals series since 2000.
  6. Won last night on OKC Thunder. Saturday's Game 4 Winner out of a 100% Perfect, 15-0 ATS NBA System up now at bigal.com/picks for $20
  7. Cashed Okla City in Game 3 last night. May play Game 3 tonight between Boston + Miami. 32-23 in Playoffs. 11-1 NHL Run.
  8. Down 3 games to none vs. the Spurs, Utah's Al Jefferson said, "I don't see nobody beating them." So far, he's proved to be very prescient.
  9. @IzzyESPN @scof2010 Big difference between SA & 2011 Mavs. Spurs' great play dates back to Late January. Was easy to see coming if u looked.
  10. Spurs opened as 2.5-point dogs in Game 3. Line moved a few minutes later to OKC -3.
  11. Hack-a-Splitter might sound good, in theory. But all it does is induce Popovich to re-insert Duncan. Not good trade-off.
  12. That said, I am on OKC +5 tonight.
  13. Kawhi Leonard with the stuff! Who said the #Spurs are boring?!
  14. @WojYahooNBA the best leverage Brooks could have would be a series win vs. Spurs. It's not as if better offensive minds (SVG) don't exist.
  15. 31-21 in Playoffs. OKC/SA Winner up now at bigal.com/picks ...Will have Totals play but no Side play in Mia/Bos Gm 2 (26-13 L39 Totals)
  16. If I'm Sam Presti, I'd hesitate 2 give Scotty Brooks a long-term deal w/ an offensive guru like Stan Van Gundy available. SVG perfect 4 OKC
  17. Unreal. Just rewound DVR and counted. Stiemsma traveled and took 5 steps before delivering that pass to Pierce!
  18. If OKC wants to run with SA, consider that in games with 94+ possessions, SA's won 22 straight (OKC 11-8 in such games) bit.ly/MWmjiC
