Belmont Stakes And Lakers Vs. Celtics

"That's why they run the race" I've heard that one before. So what may have happened yesterday at Belmont Park as yet another Triple Crown bid comes up short? Was it the heat?
Was Big Brown over anxious when he left the gate? Was it the nagging hoof injury? The connections say no and I believe them.

Okay, so he just didn't have it Saturday. Maybe next year? Guess that is what keeps us going every day. Horseplayers and racing fans are the ultimate eternal optimists. As long as they have tomorrow's racing form on sale somewhere, there is reason to go on and get up tomorrow and try, try again.

Looking at game two tonight in the NBA Finals from a betting perspective is where we go now. Looking at the total on the game which is at 190 or 191, depending on where you look, we like this game to go over the number. Both teams shot below average in game one, the "get to know the opponents defense" game. Tonight's game should be a higher scoring affair and we see the over as the play.

Lakers-Celtics Over 190

Record In 2008: 60-36-3 (62.49%) Plus 23.10 Units
