Explain the absurdity of this..Nets still favored to win the 🏆
Not even doing this for reverse jinx purposes but as of today with the injury situation being what it is, I give them at best..35% to beat MIL, 20% to make the Finals & 10% to win at all. What am I possibly not seeing that the books are?

Then it even makes less sense since MIL is now favored to win this series. Nets wouldn't even have HC against PHI or whoever comes out of the West.

It tells me books have no faith in MIL beating PHI & if the Nets win this series, they figure it's business as usual which really makes no sense.

$10K BTC reload.. I should just do it now cuz of the 7 to 10 day hold but it's just too painful so I'll just wait till Thurs or Sat when it's officially over.

The books know that if Nets get through this series, Harden and Irving will have more time to get back into shape. If they get through yet another series, then they'll have even more time to work through those injuries. If they get to the finals, you gotta assume that they will be at least 80% and with an understanding of what they can/can't do on the court with those injuries.
I think it makes sense.

It's all about James Harden at this point. Kyrie is out at least 2 weeks. If James can come back they won't miss Kyrie.
Nets have been very quiet about James injury so far.

this. Why would the book raise the price making them more appealing getting more bets....just for them to find a way through Bucks and be healthy moving forward

They have home court vs Clippers. Of course +260 is a bad bet like most futures you got to take the series prices.

even with irvin they looked suspect in milwaukee. best ball they played was when they were down big in game 3 and came back the comeback came from running plays and playing team ball otherwise quite a bit off one on one they got away from playing as a team. good luck hope they still win it for u

same thing with kyrie at duke. he was hurt all season but came back for the tourny. i was heavy on duke futures figuring if he could play a couple weekends he would get in game shape and id have a real shot. but they lost early in the tourny

Given that they're 2-2 and +4 dogs at home in Game 5 it truly makes no sense. You have to be very low IQ to bet that future right now when you could just bet them in Game 5 at +160.

The series has been a mismatch from day 1 even with Irving
The Bucks are too big for Nets and play way better defense

Bookmaker has Nets +144 to win this series. You would have to be 50 shade of stupid to bet them +160 to win the Conference.
