Detroit Pistons the Champions for the 2005-2006 season. These guys are not even breaking a sweat these days. That +157 at Pinny for them to win it all looks better every day.

#3Did you just hit it John? Its currently at +149. Which is still a nice price for how great they are playing. It will be hard for any team in the NBA to beat this team in a best of 7.Comment -

#4The Pistons aren't that good they are just trying too hard for the regular season, they have a very remote chance of beating the Spurs if both teams are at full strengthComment -

#6That is a really good point because in a 7 game series they really cannot lose. As they get closer and closer to locking up homecourt throughout the playoffs the odds will only get better.
Not like the odds of Brokeback Mountain winning best picture at the Academy, but pretty damn good.Comment -

#9The thing about the Colts is they had a choke artist for a leader and that team has not been to the SuperBowl. The Pistons are not choke artists, they have 5 leaders on the team, and this team has been to and won the NBA Finals. Barring a freak injury they will bring home the money.Comment -

#10I'm telling ya guys Phoenix Suns +301 to WIN the West is a great value. When they get healthy they will be a terror. Yes Dallas and SA are for real with shorter odds but the Suns can beat either one or both.Comment -

Detroit is a ferocious defensive team with one of the best offenses in the league and a steal-your-spirit approach to the game. They are much better than last year, while San Antonio is not as good. Barring injury they are absolutely the best team in the league come playoffs.Comment -

#15San Antonio is alot better than last year, Tony Parker has improved, and they added Finley and Van Exel, plus Tim Duncan was played badly injured in the finals, and likely will be healthier this years finals, and every day that goes buy the Wallaces' just keep getting older, they will be too old by June hopefullyComment -

#21The Spurs do not match up very well against Detroits brutal defense. Parker cant get his points in the paint and Duncan can not carry the load with Detroits stout interior defense. Now SA can darn sure shoot but you have to favor Detroit if they meet again.Comment -

Its only great value if Pho reaches the conference finals and they are not facing the Spurs.Last edited by Chuck Sims; 02-28-06, 11:43 PM.Comment -

#25In November after the Pistons beat the Spurs for the 2nd time on the season (I think), I took them the very next day on 5 dimes at +250. Just a small value bet for me so even if it loses, not a biggie. I do like their chances however.Comment -

#26Call me a "homer" or whatever you'd like...but the best value on the board is
Clippers at +2858 to win the West
These guys are going to be tough to beat when they get Maggette and his 22 points a game back. They have played through injuries all season and have yet to have everyone playing together.
The addition of Radmanovich makes them deadly offensively when Maggette gets back.
C- Kaman (the key to this team)
PF- Brand (MVP season)
SF- Maggette
SG- Mobley
PG- Cassell
6th- Radmanovich
7th- Livingston
8th- Rebraca (another great offensive player on injured list all season)
This team could make some noise. They are currently 4th but they will get the 5th seed unless they win their division.
When they get to full strengh, no one will want to play them.
They are not as good as the Spurs or the Mavericks, but at +2858, I'll take a shot.Comment -

#28The West is tough, well at least at the top. This last full month tends to seperate the men from the boys. SA plays the Suns and Dal a couple more times. The battle for top seed is headed down the backstretch!Comment -

#30Clip Joint, you know what happens when a team has not been in the playoffs for a long time. They get smoked in the playoffs.
Why take the Clips now at 2858, when you'll get better odds rolling it over when they face Dallas in the 1st rd, the Spurs in the 2nd rd, and the Suns in the finals?Comment -

Not many teams can go without a 22 ppg scorer and do as well as this team. This team will be tough to beat come playoff time.Comment -

#35The Clippers would be the 2nd best team if they were in the East, ok, the 3rd best. But in the West they will struggle just to win a game against the West's Big 3. Although one never knows. They could click and catch a team sleeping like Denver did that one year.Comment
