Should the Spurs be the series favorites

[rawzay]

Heat -240
Spurs +200


Spurs have swept 2 opponents already and Dwade isn't the same player anymore. Tony Parker is playing like the best PG in the NBA.

No. This would be close to pk (heat slightly favored) if all games were played on neutral field but heat have hca so are logically favored.

Heat had hca vs the Pacers and it took them 7 games to beat a team that was turning the ball over like 20 times a game. The Spurs are going to take much better care of the ball and there much better than the Pacers. I just think Wade is done and won't be able to turn it on in the Finals.

Gonna be a good Finals. Someone's legacy will take a hit. Go spurs!

I think Pacers were the toughest opponent of the heat this year. Heat matched up better with Spurs. Spurs have good players, but they just don't dominate the paint the way Pacers did to the Heat. I think Bosh and Wade will play better now that they play spurs. I have nothing but respect for the spurs, but I think Heat will have easier time with Spurs than with Indy.

Everything you saw about Miami vs the Pacers goes out the window now. Whole new series, new players, new match-ups, changes everything.

Fresh start for this team and they'll be coming in with full momentum after being forced to play one of their best games of the year.

[dmncnlou]

Spurs ain't the Pacers bro. U gonna have to play the full 48 against them. I got the Spurs up 3-2 going back to Miami.

The Heat in 5 or 6... Spurs played Lakers (ha), Warriors (Great Offensive, lite defense) and Grizzles (Great Defense, no offense)
Heat have a great offense and the best defense in the league... LeBron is gonna kill the spurs

Just like 2007 all over again. Spurs will win this one. Pop just too much for the whole Heat team. I like to see this Heat team coached by Riley vs Pop and his Spurs.

NO. Miami is clearly the favorite.

With Joo Stern's fixed series bias Heat -300

Without Joo Stern's ref bias Spurs -150

In cruise control in the Western conference > Barely hanging on by a thread in the Leastern Conference with no talent and teams who average 45 points per game. Lick the Western Conference's nuts.

The 4-8 seeds in the East wouldn't make the playoffs in the west. What's the average wins per team this season in the East? 33?

So because the West has better teams you think seem to insinuate that the only Mia wins is if Stern has his way and instructs the refs to favor Mia. And as for the East avg 45 points a game, the NBA becomes a half court game in the playoffs, and the superior half court teams usually win the Ring. When is the last time a run and gun team won the Title?

Well the Heat didn't do any better than the Spurs. They play in the weaker Conference (East) and who did they beat in the Playoffs. Bucks ( no offense, no defense ) Bulls ( no offense, good defense ) Pacers ( no offense, good defense ). At least the Spurs beat their teams right away and brought their A game everynight. Lakers sweep, Warriors 4-2, Grizzlies sweep.
