Heat found their mojo, series is over. Still confused? Teams don't go on 33-5 runs and lose Series

lol...wrong again. NY went on a 30-2 run in game 2 in New York. Series result = Pacers in 6

Another weird line is the prop bet for San Antonio winning 4-1. Its only +500 compared to spurs in 4-2 +575 and then 4-3 +597. It might be wise if you think the Spurs win the series to just bet on 4-2 or 4-3. I realize the 4-1 line is lower because there are 3 games in a row in San Antonio but even with home court advantage I think its more likely that the Spurs win 2/3 at home and then steal one in the miami then the Spurs winning 3 games in a row at home.

Nice point Mr. Handicap able.....I don't care what line is, I see Spurs winning game 3 and Miami winning game 4 with quick turnarounds. No spur played more than 30 mins in game 2, they will be rested and ready !

Spurs were -3 for each game at home before the series started. Game 3 opened at -2.5 and got bet down to -2. Nothing special happening here.

Guys this seems too easy ! Can anyone help me out and tell me why Spurs are only -2 at home for game 3 ? I pegged this at -4.5 at least for Spurs ! Any help understanding would be much appreciated !

So you expected a 10.5 point swing, just by virtue of them changing states?

to be fair such swings do happen, but only in 2-0 series (knicks/celtics, spurs/grizzlies)

this is a 1-1 series so an 8 point swing is already more than enough.

that 33-5 swing messed with my head. what if duncan lays another egg? might take spurs first quarter

It's because the oddsmakers know that Miami is about to tear dat soft tender spur ass up

Miami in 5.

Trap line...they should be at least 5-6 point favs...if you want to entice action on the HEAT....the price dropped immediately after the line opened up....kinda like Miami here...

Sharp comment there, but even still I like San Antonio. San Antonio is going to be at home for first time in this Finals after a blowout. ....That smells blowout...
