Just took Spurs to win Championship. Anyone else with me ?

[Snowball]

I have just had a feeling which started a couple weeks ago
that the Spurs have one more Championship left in them..
Miami is a difficult opponent to say the least, however
San Antonio is better coached and better organized for any opponent.
they are 2-1 dogs
I just went a couple hundred on it. Worth the price
of admission. Can't put a price tag on seeing the Heat lose a Finals.
F Miami.
Indiana not even in the equation so don't go there.

better late than never

had them at $16s early during the season

I would be with you on this if it weren't for the fact that the Spurs are a retirement home. I think they got the motivation and skill to challenge for it... but the Heat are better than last year IMO and rightfully the favorites.

[h3da]

heat playing with pussy bosh and banged up wade. good luck against spurs

[Itsamazing777]

Well there are only 3 choices.....

Heat have some old men too ya know. Allen, Battier, Anderson, Miller, Wade, Haslem
these aren't spring chickens we're talking about.

Amazing how many people let their 'hate' for Miami affect their betting. You would think this was the first thing taught in Gambling 101, to never let your 'feelings' affect a bet, but apparently not.

I always wondered how badly books must get cleaned up on Miami futures, but I guess they probably end up making money considering how many Miami haters put money on other teams, fading the Heat - and all of those get sucked in, and they only payout on Miami bets tht were juiced like a bitch.

[hotelis]

if u look closely, the Heat roster average is higher than SA's

[Menses]

Spurs are the obvious choice...but that is precisely what you want to avoid when betting the NBA. Most people are now going to pick the Spurs based off Miami's performance...but I suspect Miami, if they are to advance will destroy them...The Pacers and Grizzlies created more matchup problems for the Heat, than the Spurs do...all the heat neeed is 2 good games from Chalmers and Cole...while Lebron locks down parker...

[No coincidences]

Honestly, from what I've seen in these playoffs up until this point and given the way LeBron's "supporting cast" has played, it would be a major upset if SA lost to either one of these teams from the East.

How are they "better than last year"?

[ThaTopMoron]

if LeBron goes 1 for 4 in the Finals, including 1 for 3 in Miami...

[Gus Fring]

No team is gonna beat LeBron in a 7 game series. Come on now!

I don't hate Miami. I bet on Miami frequently. I just think the Spurs are less banged up
better rested and more focused.
Spurs are now down to +173 on 5 dimes based on last night's results.

the rest of the public favors Miami because they are Hollywood.
Even if the NBA goons favor Miami on the court (if Miami even makes it to Finals now), the Spurs are so wily and adaptable they can respond to any situation. Their vets have a history of complementary action, not having to think twice, and focused execution via Coach Pop.

[Snowball]

SA still only +173
glad I got +200

[Ron29301]

Lets go Snow. We all we got.

Ehhh...you posted this:

F Miami.

Putting a price tag on the Heat losing implies betting on them, not against them. That way, you either pay to watch them lose or get paid as compensation for watching them win. That's why people think you are betting with your heart.

Agree I am sure Game 6 Ind/Mia books cleaned up nicely though. People still don't get how good this Miami team is (3 final appearances in a row lmao) besides that just how fukking great they play and how well they execute their offense. Pacers was the hardest series for them, Spurs shouldn't be that difficult Pops going to be calling tons of timeouts trying to coach around a small Miami line up and he won't have an answer.

[Pick'nParlays]

Wouldn't it make sense to wait and take the Spurs right before tip off at a better price

This exactly! That's how I always bet lol. Slam Miami and if I lose $ then so be it. Worth it to watch LeBron for 1 for 4 in Finals lol

[Barnes & Whine]

Yup. I want the Spurs to win so bad that I don't think it wise to bet them.

[Snowball]

not for a Series bet, it won't change. it's 2-1 again.

Who says it will go 7 games? We cannot determine that. You all need to get off of that Lebrick bandwagon. Remember last year the Spurs had one of the best records in the regular season and what happen? Heat had the best regular season record this year and watch what happens.

[OMGRandyJackson]

I got a nice future last week: Indiana OR Spurs win NBA Finals +330.

Debating on hedging, but will most likely leave it alone and hedge small amount to get my original bet amount back.

[Shafted69]

you're betting against history

[Ron29301]

you're betting against history

What's the history behind it? Everything is history.

Spurs were 2-1 last week. +180 now.

Not much to like in last night's outing, but any Spurs fan would
have taken one win, one loss those first 2 games in Miami.

[GoBlue77]

Snowy, didn't you take Celtics over Knicks too? Spurs = dead money brah
