    Oh My... how the Finals MVP odds have changed

    Lebron James
    Before the Finals Started +250, Before game 7 -195

    Stephen Curry
    Before the Finals Started -110, Before game 7 +275

    Draymond Green
    Before the Finals Started +500, Before game 7 +1400


    I don't have Klay Thompson before the series but he is +1200 now which looks juicy. He's capable of being the leading scorer by far in game 7 and who has been better for the Warriors in the Finals if Curry doesnt kill it in this final game? He's avg'n 25 in Warriors wins to Cavs.

    They certainly have. I unfortunately took that bet for Curry at -110 before the series started. In terms of value, I figured it would be a better alternative to betting GS to win the series. Of course this was based on the false assumption that Curry would shine this series, which he clearly hasn't. At this point, it looks as though Lebron's winning MVP either way, but that would be a first in NBA history so who knows

    crazy cause theres a decent shot all three end up losers

    if Ws win and curry doesnt have a monster game he isnt getting it, draymond is a pretty much a toss too

    unless they puss out and give it to LBJ with a loss if cleve loses and he goes insane ?

    Jerry West won Finals MVP on a losing team.

    Late last night at 5D King James was at -240

    Huge swings everywhere. I wonder if people pounded the NO overnight?

    Seriously. Anyone who bets Lebron MVP -195 now needs to quit gambling forever. Lebron MVP should be a few cents above today's ML.

    Is Curry seriously available at +275 for MVP? That's crrrrrrazy. I mean, if GS wins, he's probsably going to get it, right? Who else would? Maybe sprinkle a little on Klay. Nobody else has a shot, do they?

    It makes no sense, lebron mvp should be +195 unless the books know something we dont.
    i mean you would have to be retarded to bet that, just bet cleveland Moneyline it has a better chance than lebron.

    I just checked the odds at betus and they have Lebron to win MVP at at -450.

    He should be around +175 to +200

    They have Curry +300 Thompson +600 and Green +900

    I think Curry +275 and Cleveland +165 is my play.

    Curry's stats so far: 23.5p 4.8r 4.0a
    Thompson stats so far: 20.5p 3.2r 1.8a


    Lebron: 30.2p 11.3r 8.5a 2.7stl 2.2blk

    This is totally nuts. Just bet Curry and Thompson and hedge back on Cleve ML, right?

    The books seem to be thinking GS could win with Lebron named MVP. This isn't really possible, is it?

    It happened once 47 years ago, but I don't think they would let that happen now.

    Plus Curry's wife would go absolutely insane on twitter.

    Yeah, but if Klay goes off for 45 tonight...he does still have a shot. But nobody else on GS has any shot, right?

    If you take:
    Cleve ML +170
    Curry +300
    Klay +900

    You simply cannot lose.

    For example:
    Cleve 100/170 (win 90)
    Curry 60/180 (win 60)
    Klay 30/270 (win 110)

    What am I missing? No risk here. Now multiply those numbers by as much as possible.

    Sure they could. They probably will. Lebron is going to be MVP, regardless of who wins tonight.

    This is Game 7. Curry will be a big part of the GS win if they do win. It's not like he's going to sit the 4th like he has in the past. This is the league MVP. Kerr will be giving him the ball.

    Is getting Cleveland winning by 7-13 points at +1100 a good bet?

    What in the world are you smoking? Lebron at plus money?

    Have you seen him the past two games, with the specter of elimination looming large?

    He put up Space Jam type numbers.

    He is the frontrunner by a considerable margin and, yes, it's not inconceivable that he could win the award even if Golden State wins the game. In fact, if he plays well, I'm pretty sure he wins it regardless of the game outcome. It would be rightfully earned for not only this series, but also as a sort of "make-up" call for last year when he should have won MVP.

    The books aren't just pulling figures out of a hat. Lebron is at the head of the line for a reason.

    this same LBJ led cleve team wasnt competitive past the first quarter of games 1-2 and lost by 25 and 33 points and game one was to the Ws 2nd string. they also lost by 30 at home to Ws LOL if you guys memories go back that far.

    and you guys still think he gets the MVP with a loss? hate to beat a dead horse but this series was over 2 games ago if they didnt suspend draymond and LBJ is in eternal doghouse.

    You're missing if Cleveland loses a very close game tonight where Lebron puts up 40. GS wins the title but Lebron wins MVP.

    I think win or lose, Lebron is getting Finals MVP. He leads both teams in every damn statistical category by a large margin. How do you not give a guy that is leading in points, assists, rebounds, steals and blocks????

    If the voters know what "MVP" means, LeBron should win regardless of tonight's result.

    Everyone here have short memory. You guys forgot about the okc series? Gsw lost by 20-30 also. At their hm. Getting killed, down 3-1. Now all of a sudden they unstoppable at hm? I remember that GM6 at okc when majority of ppl got slaughtered drinking the okc kool-aid.
