    Is golden State overrated..minus 185 to win it all ?

    If the series started today...gsw would be a likely -375 vs houston..is that too high or the correct price ? Houston is very dominant and if they got one more role player..could beat gsw ?

    Don't think Houston can compete over a series. Need Harden to be perfect and put up 50 each game, tough to do every game. Warriors have 3-4 guys that can take control and win games for them.

    Great point. But..is Houston winning this much because of Harden only ?

    Nyplayer I think so, he's so dominant on that team. Harden was out there for a while and I think they struggled during that time period, no?

    Kid has a good point re injuries though, that's why I rarely play futures myself. Also don't like to tie up money for so long time.

    One injury and Houston is the favorite.

    Houston only team that can beat them,i think the number should be higher,they just have to keep it that low in case of injury

    James harden never shows up in the playoffs. It's amazing they even give the rockets a chance.

    Golden State is not 2 to 1...you bet 185 to win 100..not 100 to win 200

    We know this, but close enough.

    The point was/is that even at 2-1 or even 2.5-1 it's good value.

    Ha yeah.

    Actually I meant even at (-200 or -250)

    At a couple points on the season they were over -200.

    If the playoffs started today, the Rockets will have the home advantage. Not saying they'll win but that'll probably get them up to two wins against the Warriors in a seven-game series.
