    Bulls @ 14/1 to win East
    Boylesports are offering 14/1 on the Bulls to win the East.

    For those of you who liked the Bulls this has got to be a great price given two of the three they need to win are at home.

    A calculation such as 0.6*0.33*0.6 gives 11.88%, or about 7.5-to-1, as an estimation.

    Even those that liked the Heat may fancy this possible overlay as a hedge.

      14/1 are not terrible odds though, they are +750 to beat the Heat and they would be favored in Finals.

            No it's 14/1 to win the East. Just a great price versus the more realistic +750.

                    Shit I misread it. Then 14/1 is totally off market (Pinny is +750), and I don't know much about the book you mentioned.

                      Bulls will win Game 5. The chances of a win in game six are very small. $ talks! The NBA will see to it we have a weekend game in this series.

                        Obviously this is a great bet in itself, so long as you trust the book and whatnot.

                          What? Are you kidding me??? I suppose the refs are controlling the outcome of the games OR is it the league who decides the winner?

                                  That's what I see happening. The league will instruct the refs to balance out the fouls and free throw attempts between the two teams. Bulls with their backs against the wall will play a solid game. More league revenue via t.v. time if there is a game six.

                                    This is great value and I'd bet it if I could.

                                      It's amazing how much stupidity exists on this forum. The OP is saying you can hedge the 14-1 after game 5 if the Bulls win, he's not trying to say the Bulls will absolutely win the series. There are some of us who are here to make money, not sit around grabbing onto our emotions and waiting for a final result.

                                        No doubt, I am just questioning the reliability of a book offering double the price of Pinny.

                                          is it a rec book maybe? I was pleased with myself when my book offered essentially OKC ML +280 last night, yeah it lost, but it was off 40 cents from Pinny and worth almost a unit

                                            Great possibility bet IMO, Bulls win tonight and will at least have the lead at halftime in game 6, then you have your golden opportunity to hedge with the Heat down at the break in game 6. I honestly think they could pull it off in game 6 on the road and then finish it off, but I've been called nuts at times.
