    Warriors open -750 over Cavs in the Finals

    Can LeBron at least make this thing somewhat interesting? Warriors have a few more chinks in the armor this year.

    Humiliating for the NBA.

    Golden State will win... Cleveland's defense is horrible.

    I didn’t want to see another rematch but it’s not humiliating. The nba is doing great.

    Game one: Golden State -11.5.

    It's going to be ugly.

    The NBA gets their 3 best, most recognized faces in the finals, again. How's that humiliating? Ratings would be considerably down if either GS or CLE doesn't get in.

    Do not use the C word. Pretty offensive considering we have a lot of Asian members here on SBR.

    With Lebron anything is possible. Would not be surprised one bit if Cleveland wins in a game 7 thriller.

    We've seen Warriors throw up some duds in these playoffs, would not shock me if Cleveland steals one of the first two. It's almost like this Warrior team enjoys more playing with their backs against the wall. Hard to see Cleveland winning the series, but I don't think this ends in less than 6.

    I can see that. Can see a sweep too but like you said, Warriors have had a few bad games and they’ve got some injuries.

    Houston won 3 games and was up 11 at halftime in gm7 w/o CP3...
    line is too high. Cleveland is ready and tested. They play better defense than Houston and Smith, Korver always ready to strike from range. Bron creates, Bron turns mice into men.

    Don't blame Stevens, whose been nothing but praised for being a genius all playoffs and the last few years, for that game. Their shots just weren't falling late and they had no Kyrie, no go-to answer to settle things down. Just a young team getting beat by a bunch of vets.

    No -1200 has ever lost in the history of sports betting?

    Yes, this is what the NBA wants at least, and probably most fans. You want all of the stars in the finals. They got them all.

    I'm not sure if a -1200 series price has ever lost in the finals. You would have to look that up. I guess we will see if ratings are up over the last three finals. I have no interest in this finals at all. Its unbettable so thats where my comment came from

    So? Different sport. You'll never see a hockey team -700 at home like you routinely do in the NBA or NFL
