    Miami Heat are a sure thing to win the finals

    No this isn't a jinx thread or anything like that. No I am not even close to a Heat fan. In fact I have a healthy dislike for Lebron James. However I refuse to allow personal feelings and emotions to cloud my vision. Nothing would make me happier in the scenario than for OKC to win the Finals so I can once again see Lebron fall short. Unfortunately that isn't gonna happen.

    What I would like to know is how should I wager this? I already have healthy amounts on Heat win series 4-3 @ +665 and Heat win series 4-2 @ +690

    Now should I place the lionshare of my remaining allotment on the Heat series +155 or just play each game out. I am thinking I will do better playing out each game because it won't be too hard to pick winners from game to game. Other than a suprise or two which I hope to spot this should be easy.I could also split the remaining and put half on the Heat series +155 and use the rest to wager from game to game. Thoughts?

    I feel strongly the Thunder will win tonight. I could be wrong but I am taking a chance and waiting to get better odds after game 1

    Good luck with whatever you decide.

    Okc winning game 1 is far from lock..I'd pour the remaining on Mia winning in 5, 6, and 7.

    Heat beating Dallas last year was a "sure thing" last year too... well, at least... that's what a lot of people around here wanted to believe and some actually did

    also remember how cocky they were after game 1

    I never use the L*** word because there is no such thing, but Thunder ML tonight is as close to safe as it gets.

    Boston coming off a 7 game series vs the Hawks 4 years ago thumped the Lakers in game 1

    of the finals on the road and won the Finals in 5 games.

    No they didn't, Celts only played like a 6-game series before blowing our Lakers. Against Pistons I think?

    Actually this post is wrong on many levels. Celtics blew our Lakers AT HOME in Game 1 and then won series on 6 games.

    Well look at what we have here. Waiting for a better series line bit me in the ass.
    Only remedy for that is to pound

    HEAT 2nd Half +6

    If OKC was gonna win this game the 2nd half line would reflect that.

    this isn't a Dallas team playing their best playoff ball ever vs a team who can't hit clutch shots or make stops

    this is the CLUTCH team up 1-0 on a team who can't hit the shot or make the big stop unless that team is poor little Indiana or old,injured...no bench Boston
