    San Antonio Spurs --> Money Line --> Lock?! --> Easy 10% on your money ?!

    If I risk £5,000 on San Antonio to win £500 will that be a smart bet?
    I don't see a chance for them to lose the game and the payout is like £5000, shall I go for it?

    5D has Spurs @ -1100, or 9%.

    whatever you can get, take it, yes.. the Spurs are going to win.

    Im pretty sure halladay wasnt -1100 against the cubs lol. I dont see the spurs realistically losing this game. Its very pricy but this game is about the surest thing ull see this playoffs an awful road team against a pissed off team who blew a 1 8 matchup last season. Personally if u got cash id just take sa in the series, one game crazy shit can happen.

    Spurs won't lose....the only question is, is 5,000 alot for you? If so, its a bad bet. If u can afford to lose it, then bet it.

    That's way too much juice bro. Utah will be playing their asses off, and there's always that off-chance that some player on the Spurs could suffer an injury (like Rose or Shumpert yesterday), or that the Spurs will be jittery for some odd reason. Winning 500 pounds is nice, sure. But LOSING 5,000 pounds is a hell of a lot worse. I just don't think it's worth it when the return is so little of a percentage. History has shown that upsets DO happen in the NBA playoffs from time to time. Proceed with caution.

    spurs are no lock in this game. utah has about a 30-35% chance to win this game. their bigs can destroy SA inside if they were to get rolling.

    There's a HUGE difference between the Pacers and the Spurs in terms of pedigree. The Spurs are anchored by experience, whereas Indiana is a very young team that is still learning on the fly.

    sucker odds that squares love to pile on. keep laying 10 to win 1 in the NBA and see how it works out for you. it's the NBA and a playoff game. if spurs have a bad shooting night and jazz have a good shooting night guess what could easily happen?

    spurs have been amazing at home and still have lost 15% of their games there this year...

    The 15% times they lost were not imptt games where their big stars didn't play, they must have this 15% record, otherwise everyone would have bet them when they're playing home.

    This is playoff, they will play with their best players, I don't think they can lose in that sense. Also Indiana was mentioned here and Indiana despite so many opportunities didn't have a one single star who could push the game forward, the spurs on the other hand are full of experienced players, if one plays bad they got so many others to cover.

    Vegas gives here free 10% in my opinion, and I wouldn't bet any day 10 to 1 but this is playoffs and it's a crucial game for the spurs, they want to show what they got tonight, they are not coming to play with their reserved teams.

    Yes, I wouldn't underestimate Utah but just like many others say here, most people trying to figure whether the spurs will win by 11 or more or less than that - I don't the question of Money Line in such a game makes it a problem but I can always be wrong.

    I think the only 'value' in this match-up is Jazz with the points....laying -11 on Spurs is not a gd idea considering Utah will play their asses off this 1st match and if they do, they can hang within single digits. Big 3 might also be a bit rusty so its unlikely Spurs get off to a massive DD lead early on.

    Of course there is value in this play, I am going to make £173 GBP out of this play, approx $280 USD, that's definitely a value!
    Just need the Spurs to finish the 4th quarter nicely and it's all done.
