Spurs Series Price -140 (2x)
Spurs Win 4-1 +525 (1x)
San Antonio is winning this series. No doubt in my mind. This team is better than last year's squad and the Heat aren't quite as good. The Spurs have more depth than last year and Ginobili is playing with a renewed confidence. I'm not really concerned about Parker's ankle. He always has soreness in his ankle this time of year. He knows how to play through it. Parker is not the difference in this series. If he goes off, Miami just sticks Lebron on him and shuts him down. Duncan should get his against the smaller frontcourt of Miami and I expect a complete 180 for Ginobili compared to last year. Like I said, this Spurs team is deeper and has multiple scoring threats off the bench whereas last year they were limited to Gary Neal and a few others. Lebron and Wade will do what they do but I'm not crazy about Rashard Lewis, a Ray Allen who is a year older, etc coming through for Miami when they need it.
Spurs Game 1 -4.5 -108 (4x)
Spurs 1H -3 -110 (1x)
Spurs won't lose this game. This one is the tone-setter. Miami will probably hang around but San Antonio will go on some vintage runs to distance themselves and win this game.
