    Thunder are coming out of the west.

    I have thought long and hard. The warriors will lose to okc in the west final.

    Okc will beat dallas pretty easily. Then they will win the long hard fought series vs the spurs in 6. They will then face a warriors team coming off an emotionally draining battle with the clippers. The thunder will knock out state in 6.

    Okc has had all these 4th quarter issues all year long and they will go away slowly in the playoffs ( where the opposite happens).

    Spurs and warriors is the series we aren't going to get cause it's too obvious.

    I put a $100 on okc +1000 to win west but I will be slamming them later when they play the big boys.

    I know but they will do enough of that when it counts. All these reg season things don't work in the playoffs. Okc will win based on the way the format is set up. The only hard series will be t spurs.

    Terrible odds.

    Just bet each series individually.

    (Unless, of course, you think someone is going to knock off Golden State before the WCF.)

    +180 sound about right?

    I'm guessing somewhere in that range. Maybe higher.

    I'm not too concerned about the odds I got for west winning odds at +1000. That's for 2 rounds. Keep that in mind.

    I guess those numbers aren't too bad.

    If you just played the final two series (+180) against San Antonio, and (+300) against Golden State, it would be +1020.

    Those numbers probably aren't accurate though, Golden State might be a giant favorite. Who knows.

    It's a good bet if you believe OKC beats the Spurs. Grab the Thunder now at +1000 to win the West and you've got a great number in a WCF matchup.

    So you have these guys winning 2x by the bay??

    I realize nobody is talking about OKC, its all GSW/SA.
    I agree there is a chance with the Thunder, but to me its like 70/20/10.
    Personally I would love a SA/Cavs final with SA spanking Cavs 4-1.
    Problem with this scenario is every single time I see Ginobs limping around I shake my head.

    I see no real gambling edge for futures betting against the Dubs.
    Think there will be more opportunities in the East.

    Lean Celts and Hornets taking points first game. What you think?

    Hornets for sure. Celtics not sure. I really am not too sure about any of those east series. I can see the dogs winning any of them and the faves winning any of them.

    All I know is that okc is coming out of the west.

    Can you explain why GSW will be so emotionally drained? Rivalry wasnt the same this year between GSW and Clips

    They couldn't beat the Warriors four times if they had 15 games to do it let alone 7.

    I'm with ya....Durant/Westbrook/Ibaka ready to roll

    They can play with Golden State and might be too athletic for the Spurs

    Worth a play

    Gotta give you credit, threw me off with this post...have no idea if your serious about any of this or if its all one big joke.

    The only thing crazier than them making it through the gauntlet of SA and GS, is them doing all that and then wasting it by losing to the Cavs.

    OKC have serious problems with 4Q offense. It is basically KD or RW playing one-on-two defenders, not even one-on-one. I do not see how they can overcome that against a well-coached SAS team, but who knows, it is NBA after all and SAS is becoming too old.
