    Atlanta Hawks 8 to 1 to win NBA championship

    Everybody keeps telling me how good the Hawks are

    but i havent watched Atlanta play a basketball game all season

    do they really have a chance?


    Atlanta Hawks NBA champions just doesnt sound right

    They play solid team ball. Kind of like how the Pistons won it in 2004. No big time superstars but lot of solid players and a good bench. Saying all that, I still don't think 8-1 is good enough

    True

    I would def bet it at 15 to 1

    the thing i like about it is ATL has home court vs cleveland

    and i know Vegas would love to avoid paying out all those Cavs futures bet


    u like anything on the card today Paco?

    They are an even worse #1 seed than last year's Pacers and that's saying something.

    It's a tremendous bet and then you can hedge off it during each series

    Both the Cavs and Hawks have one key star player gone due to injuries.
    The injury factor seems more severe in basketball since it's 5 players on the court.
    While other sports like football and baseball, the injury factor is less severe as there are more than 5 players on the field and as long it's not injuries to the QB and pitcher in their respective sports.

    Who is hurt on the Hawks? The Cavs lost Love and Irving is hurting pretty badly, but the Hawks haven't lost a player for the rest of the playoffs due to injury

    I don't think the Hawks have a chance.

    They have had the easiest time in the playoffs so far and did not look great against pretty mediocre teams.

    Cavs beat a tremendous Bulls squad despite injuries.

    I would love to see Millsap and Horford get a ring but not like this. NOT LIKE THIS.

    I'd say there is a massively large difference between Kevin Love and Thabo Sefolosha

    Hawks have a shot here, at the very least they can take this to six games and make LeBron work. I think the Hawks have a better shot than the Rockets at getting to the Finals.

    Line will be 20-1 after they drop a game in Atlanta.
    Don't waste your precious funds on this one.
