    Worth it to take Celtics ML +600?

    Gotta buddy offering 6 to 1 on the game. Line is much better than market, so just by gambling rule book I guess I should take it...

    But is anyone giving Boston a realistic shot to win straight up tonight??

    lol, who was saying Celtics were gonna win? I didn't see that... Maybe you're talking about people taking the Celtics +8.5?

    Seems like the books are begging people to take the original big 3 with that number. Did the same thing with the Lakers and they bowed out in 5. Can you out cap thebooks?

    I wouldn't take anything for Boston. They're OLD and coming off an exhausting seven game battle with Philly. They should get blown out. No way they win but they could pull a "Harden" and backdoor the spread.

    yea that's not a bad play, Boston will probably win a game or two in this series and they could take game 1

    I say take it. To say the Celtics do not have any shot at beating the Heat tonight is crazy. For any team at this point in the playoffs to be such a heavy favorite for one game is crazy.

    he can obviously take both sides (heat ml online or with local) and celts ml with the friend and have a freeroll, thats more what i was getting at, freerolls are good in life.

    Not a bad idea. But this guy is all about favorites and never thinks there can be upsets so he'll offer ridiculous money lines when he's confident on a game

    I also made a $10 bet with him at the beginning of the playoffs on the Celtics and/or Lakers winning the title for 150 to 1 odds. So $1,500 payout... Haha, SMH. Probably won't hit, but still, what's the point to offer that?

    celtics ML is down to +380 so you have an easy money making opportunity betting heat -430 and celtics +700 through your friend.
