    Warriors vs the field bet, thoughts?

    I want to pull the trigger on this but for some reason I'm very hesitant. Thoughts??

    -110

    i'd like to get some return, but i think it's a pretty safe bet. spurs looking at a war with the thunder, a war that never should have been. spurs will win the series but warriors will close their series out next game, and san antonio might go 7. and the east has no chance. you watch those games, even the cavs, they ain't beating no warriors, come on.

    I agree but it just seems to easy but nothing surprises me with anything with betting anymore

    Yeah for -110 I don't think it's worth it. But there's a reason it's -110!

    Cavs, Spurs and Thunder can all beat them and one of them will -- field has more value and expect Warriors to be down a game or two in the next series at which point you can hedge if you like

    I don't think the cavs are consistent enough to take the title

    If you watch your games they don't win that easy

    Umm they just set an NBA record for 3pointers in a series in 4 GAMES!! Metrically they were top five in Offense and Defense all year, and have statistically been at the top in both categories this post season. They swept the NBA's 2nd best regular season defense. They swept a 4th seed who wanted them beat with one of LeBron's rival coaches. They are going to sweep into the finals on fire and they are gearing up for a revenge match vs. two foes of LeBron or vs. Durant who LeBron OWNS. The Cavs future is set, deal with it.

    Louie when the Cavs lose, will you blame the refs or what will be your strategy. I forgot last year--you blamed injuries right?

    Do it. Unless somebody gets hurt, nobody is beating the Warriors. Glad the Cavs are playing well. At least they will the make the Finals entertaining. Both teams are better than they were last year, so it should be good.

    I actually made a $100 bet on this back in December with a friend of mine. After what Curry displayed last night and how the Spurs have looked against the Thunder, let's just say I really like my chances of winning it.

    Cav's fans (formerly Heat fans) are the worst. At least you can have intelligent basketball arguments with Spurs & Warriors fans. Cav's fans - "Bow down to the King, it's destiny, the stars are aligned, how can we not win" blah blah blah.

    ^ I was thinking the exact same thing. Their love for lebum is so ridiculous it blinds them to everything else.

    I would wait to see how Curry bounces back from being overplayed in Game 4.

    He will say that he was right on about them making the east finals which was a gimme and he will talk around them losing in the finals or he will disappear like he did last year
