I will take all but one of the long term bets with maximum stakes. Now that doesn’t mean that they all are a sure thing, but as a policy, I will never take a long term bet, even if it means a week and a half long, for less than 15 stakes unit. I usually use a 15 stakes minimum and 25 stakes maximum system when it comes to long term bets.

I will rate the bets the following way – Suns to qualify is the best bet in my opinion, but I will add it as soon as I will have the prices. Than comes Washington and I will write about that pick right now. Than come Dallas and Houston, both more because of the nice odds that present value, because right now, both are underdogs, but not as heavy ones as bookies will have you thinking.

Washington after one road loss, suddenly got a decent value for winning the series. I believe that as long as the trio of the Wizards is healthy (as much as they can be), Washington by no means got less chances than Cleveland to win this series.

James is a great player, but he can't do everything by him self. Yeah, he won them the last match, but will he able to do that three more times? I doubt that. I doubt that Ilgauskas will give too many 20 and 10 performances as well. That leaves us with Wally that is in worse shape ever, Big Ben who can't make a shot without the pressure on and Gibson with West in the PG position, position that was suppose to help Cavs in their offensive efforts, but failed to do that so far.

Wizards should win tonight, but if they lose, I still wouldn't go against them just yet. They still got two home games coming and they are more than capable to win in Cleveland.

Washington is my bet for this series.
