This is a trap?? Bet against Bull to win the east

only scenario I see bulls come out of east is mia underestimates them (perhaps like they did to dallas last year) and bulls bench > mia bench

I know betting 1k to win about 250 is bad, but without D.Rose Mia is still a way better playoff team i think...

Yes, I totally agree that Mia might underestimate Bull for first game, but Mia still very likely will advace rite...

not enough value IMO. I think a better way to think about the wager is that your really only betting: Who wins the East? Heat or Bulls, instead of Bulls vs Field. There really is no other reasonable team to expect winning the east besides the Heat. All that needs to happen is for the Heat to screw up in the eastern finals (or LBJ/Wade getting injured just like D Rose) or whatever other reason, which is unlikely, but not impossible.

**note: I'm not saying the Rose-less bulls have much of a shot by any means... just saying that I personally don't think there is much value on either side of this bet** gl
