When did you have the Raptors in 6

Facebook stuff.

All I remember from the Facebook stuff is that FF tried to bet you $100 that GS would win straight up and you wouldn't take the Raptors without him giving you 5-2 odds.

Doesn't seem like a guy that would take the Raptors in 6.

Is he supposed to take worse odds than the market offers just because he believes in something?

Yes, if you're guaranteeing a lock you should be able to bet $100 to win $10. It's a lock, after all. Free money.

but still less than what someone else offers him, which guarantees a loss even if he wins the underlying bet

Nas' bankroll can support two separate bets. And I'm not aware of Nas making this bet through any gambling house.

Solid move by Philly. Acquired Trey Burke to be the backup point guard. Huge upgrade over McConnell.

They may have a lock on the East unless there is a MAJOR injury.

Yep. Sure looks that way. Elton Brand is doing a helluva job. Only questionable move may have been the Fultz trade.

He lost quite a bit of weight this offseason. Doing everything right. Hope it’s not serious.

Could be one of those torn ACLs that's like a hangnail.

In the aftermath of DeMarcus Cousins' knee injury, the Los Angeles Lakers are bringing in two former All-Star centers -- Joakim Noah and Dwight Howard -- to evaluate in individual workouts in Los Angeles, league sources told ESPN on Tuesday.

Patty Mills, Dellavedova, Joe Ingles, Andrew Bogut, Aaron Baynes & something called 'Jock Landale' handed TeamUSA their first loss since the last Bush Administration. Thanks, Trump, for making Team America suck again.

Rich Paul said no to Simmons playing for Aussie national team. Does Kyrie qualify as Aussie? Might've helped out Team USA if Kyrie had showed up to play for the Aussies, throw a wrench in their locker room.

Miami "fending off" trade offers for Tyler Herro, calling him "the second coming of Klay Thompson"

Don't know about the Klay comparison since Klay is also a very good defender, but Herro has definitely looked like hands down the biggest steal of the draft.

Absolutely destroyed Trae the other night. Scored the first 14 points of the game on him

I must admit that the extra pass for a great, not good shot by the Lakers could be electrifying to watch.

Butler apparently loves him too and is taking him under his wing.
