Congrats sa Heat, kahit talo ako sa series ( spread and O/U). Games 4 & 5, lost big whew! Promised not to bet anymore in Games 6 pero pag nanalo Heat at nagkameron pa ng Game 7, sabi ko i'll pick Miami no matter what the odds are.
Miami won Game 6. Game 7 Miami was - 6 and O/U was 189.5. Lahat ng oddsmakers were saying Spurs and Over. But I kept my promise : one last run for the Heat. And since I've been going with the tide and losing, I decided to go against it and bet UNDER.
Miami covered the spread, won by 7 pts! and game was under (183 total)
I'm still down total but at least nabawi ng konti. Thank you Miami

When Spurs lost a won game in Game 6, I said that's it. As I keep saying, if it's a team's time to win, it's hard to beat that team. Fisher and Horry proved that for the Lakers. Jordan for the Bulls. Ray Allen did it in Game 6 again. History repeats itself.
But let's give credit to the Spurs for how they've managed to regroup from a heartbreaking loss in Game 6 to keep the game close until the last minutes. Hayup ang resiliency ng Spurs grabe. Congrats to a great team. They may be a "boring" team but still, the Spurs is one hell of a franchise.

And my man, Lebron. Wow. You hate him, you love him. I hated him when he can't will his team to win in the games they lost. Hated him when he committed two crucial turnovers in game 6, almost losing that one. But man, you gotta love him for how he responded tonight with a statement game. Defensively he was all over. He actually guarded all positions of the Spurs, except perhaps the center position. He guarded PG Parker. Guarded SG Manu. Guarded SF Green. Guarded PF Leonard. He would have guarded Duncan too if TD became more aggressive. So guys, LBJ guarded 4 positions!! You know how hard it is to guard, and score? Bosh guarded Duncan all night and ended up with zero points. Lebron? 37 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists. LeBron did all that defending
"while also leading his team in total rebounds, getting it done at both ends of the floor. Nobody on the Heat had more offensive rebounds (three). Nobody had more defensive rebounds (nine). Nobody had more assists, either. Or steals (two). Or trips to the foul line (eight). Or minutes played (45)."( cbsports stats ). He made 5 three pointers. He assisted and helped teamate Battier make 6 treys!! That's what you call a HALIMAW GAME. And this was done not in November vs the Bobcats. But in an all important game 7 of the NBA Finals. Versus the San Antonio Spurs. Now, you can hate him all you want, but this guy is simply phenomenal. Finals MVP no doubt. So I think right now FAITH in Lebron is much better than HATE.

Next year? More of Lebron WOW. And Kobe? Pwede. Heat vs Lakers. Lebron vs Kobe. Sana!
Till next year. It was fun ( kahit bayad ako sa pusta hahahah )
