Lakers take the hardware again

The Heat's super team is about as exciting in the NBA, as seeing the rejuvenation of Michael Vick in the NFL again! Sports going to be enjoyable to watch and bet on this year

Wanna risk some points that they will make the finals?since you claim they aren't even 2nd best team.. I should have at least 150 points by then if you wanna book it in

UntilTheNDofTimE · 10-02-10, 07:36 PM

Ill bet you 500 points they dont win the finals, that wud only take 2 months for you to save up.

You claim they aren't top two so I wager for them to make the final two and you want me to wager heats vara the field? Rofl what a joke..

i believe the 2nd best team in the league is the Thunder. I didnt want it to fly that way(like if i was wanting you to bet the field) but i actually beleive the heat make the finals so that would be a bad wager for me.

You really think the second best team this year is the Thunder???

Save your money and skip the NBA season then.

Thats what they said when i said Cleveland wouldn't make the finals the past 2 years and when i said Orlando would make the finals 2 years ago in preseason. This year i told everyone at eog that Cleveland wouldn't get past Boston and that was in preseason as well. The thunder will win 55-57 games this year and they are one of 2 teams that match up very well with the Lakers. Unlike the Heat whoz roster plays so small id be surprised if they can get passed the Celtics.

Thunder matches up well on the PG like we saw on last year's playoffs. but now with artest AND barnes, durant won't be able to score so much. lakers still have the edge at the paint.

Lakers are by far the better team im not arguing that. But with boston aging even further and me not a beleiver in the heats supporting cast i give the edge to the thunder currently being the 2nd best team in the league. Do i think theyll win more games than the heat?no, do i think they'll beat the lakers? no. But they are a elite team that aint a pushover.

captrobey · 10-03-10, 11:04 PM

i am looking foward to basketball i have to keep your ideas in mind

Thunder won't even take a top 3 seed in the west.

watch this season as the squares load up on OKC ATS

tltaylor89 · 10-05-10, 07:03 AM

This year bench depth will play the biggest part in who goes to the finals .Miami will draw huge chalk everyother game fade aginst premier teams.

BigMattM · 10-05-10, 07:43 AM

Good luck this NBA season!

thezbar · 10-05-10, 08:04 AM

With the lines inflated in Heat games, I will be looking for spots to play against them. The other teams will be focused against this three headed monster.

dwaechte · 10-05-10, 08:27 AM

I don't see any way the Heat don't score at will... Bosh, Wade, and LeBron are 3 of the most 4 efficient scorers in the league; with their usage rates all dropping their efficiencies will only climb. A lot does depend on the other shooters spreading the defense, but even without that if the big three can spread themselves well enough they'll always be able to get one of them in a one-on-one matchup: that spells disaster for the opposing D.

That being said, I agree their lines will be inflated throughout the year.

bookie · 10-05-10, 10:30 AM

If the -10.5 bet already to -11 on the Heat's first preseason game (vs. Pistons) is an indication, Heat will have historically unprecedented lines because in preseason games when one team announces that they'll just be playing their D-Leaguers and the other team puts in all their guys they still only make the line -7.
