    -110.... I could see it in the -250, -300 range....

    Going to be juicy.

    K13 i think we are having communication difficulties

    i said i would bet EITHER heat win 4-0 or heat win 4-1 if was a +money situation, for example

    HEAT WIN 4-0 +110
    HEAT WIN 4-1 -120
    HEAT WIN 4-2 +400
    HEAT WIN 4-3 +1200

    i would take heat win 4-0 in that instance

    No communication problems. I think it will be like :

    Heat win 4-0 -250
    Heat win 4-1 -300

    Something like that....

I've seen this pathetic Bucks team all year and this should be quick and painless. Kinda like getting interest on a money market account - the profit won't be much but it should be "free money". Thoughts?

    Really going out on a limb here brah. Big risk-taker. Chop that wood chalky.

    Lines will be longer on Heat in 6 and Heat in 7, but I think 4 and 5 are reasonable guesses.

    Books have even less respect for the Bucks in this series than I do - Heritage has the Heat -12,725, by FAR the best odds I've found. The rest are 18-20,000. Has to be a record by a mile for an opening line in any series, any sport.

    Probably see similar ones in Euro hoops and so on.

    OK, do you want to bet or not? You say both will be -. I disagree. We'll go by 5 Dimes openers, or pinny openers, whatever you want.

    No kidding 4-2 and 4-3 will be +. They'll be +quite a bit.

    I'll pass on the bet Yisman.

    But let's say 4-0 is +110, good chance Heat will be up 3-0 and be decent dogs in Game 4.
    Is that not an automatic hedge?

    Miami isn't going to be an underdog to Milwaukee in any game, under any circumstance.

    Sure. If you bet sweep and they do win the first 3, why not bet Milwaukee Game 4 at nice odds (+210 or whatever)? But either 4-0 or 4-1 has to be + in this case.

    I would price Heat sweep at like +120, and make Heat 4-1 at about even odds. And then yes, you could bet both and guarantee a profit, assuming Milwaukee can't win more than one game.
