    Miami bench cannot match Spurs. Spurs win, Duncan retires and even maybe Ginobili.

    Spurs will win this series. Miami cannot defend against their offense, too fast, too many threes, too much paint presence. Lebron is one man, the spurs have two starting fives. Duncan and pop ride off into the sunset. Book it.

    Series line is spot on because of home court advantage, Heat will be slightly bigger favorites in their home games than Spurs will in their home games, but not by that much (Miami around -4.5).

    Because most punters remember only the most recent game. Spurs upset OKC in GM6, so they surely definitely will win it all ! The books opened Spurs at +105 and that was the correct line. No need to even discuss it.

    Actually Heat could have a bit of value. If you assume Spurs -170 ML at home and Heat -195 ML at home, series price works out to a no-vig line of Spurs -105

    But Heat may have the ONE that matters most. Not an easy series for me to call.

    Betonline opened SA -135, by the time you saw the line, it had already moved.

    I took the Heat +130. I guess the sharp money is on the Spurs. The line did not move.

    Last 6 quarters have shown me the spurs have been the best team the last two seasons.

First 12
