Rip Says He Will Play

Well, my Pistons +130 play may still have some life after all. Rip says he's fine and "ready to go." I don't believe this qualifies as an official medical clearance, but who cares. I'll take what I can get. Check out the full story @ ESPN.com

Sasha Vujacic Just Made a Lot of People Angry

I'm assuming by tomorrow morning Vujacic's name will be cursed by the masses for his unnecessary and ill-advised 3-pointer at the end of the game to make the final score 100-92 in favor of the Lakers. Of course this tiny and irrelevant detail to most of the audience, is a HUGE detail to the gamblers in the audience. The main reason that this particular unnecessary shot by the Lakers was a HUGE detail in this game is because most books had them between -7.5 and -8. I didn't have any money on this game, which is probably the reason I can post this, but I have experienced both wins and losses in this excruciating manner. In the past, I've been as delirious with disbelief as those who had LA at -7.5 or -7, as relieved/frustrated as those who had LA -8 and as insanely furious as those who had the Spurs +7.5 because they chose not to buy the 1/2 pt. Feel free to vent your frustrations to Sasha here because if anyone understands, its me.......trust me.

Will Rip Play Friday?

Looks like the Pistons are still unsure whether Rip Hamilton will be available to play against the Celtics tomorrow night. Hamilton suffered an elbow strain in last seconds of the Celtic's 106-102 win Wednesday night. According to ESPN, his status will not be determined until tomorrow. My play from earlier, Pistons winning series +130, isn't looking so good.....

NBA Eastern Conference Championship

The Pistons are currently sitting at +130 for the series against the Celtics. Maybe I'm crazy, but I'll take that +130 all day long. Any other opinions?
