    Spurs vs Heat
    What would the line be if these 2 meet up in the finals (Which is very likely)?




    Around - 120 for the Heat? I'm hoping it's like - 150 for the Heat cause I will be all over the Spurs in this series with Lebron's history of choking

    Spurs should be the favorite. And they will be because books want that delicious Heat backer money.

      I highly doubt that, the heat were the favorite to win the title before playoffs began I believe

        Last time I checked the odds to win the championship was a little before the conference finals. Spurs were the slight favorite over the Heat. Can't remember the precise numbers but it was something like +112 vs +117 I think. Also Spurs odds are going down while Heat's are going up. But that could change with the upcoming games of course if weird stuff happens.

          BuddyBear was saying the Spurs would be -130. If Bosch is back as expected and there are no other marquee injuries I kind of expect the Spurs to be a slight favorite say -125/+105. I would expect the Thunder to be -115/-105. Both will have home court over the Heat.

            interesting, that surprises me cause I know the Heat were the favorites to win it all for a while there

                2-8 in the NBA finals with a scoring avg of above 7 points below his career playoff avg

                  The LeBron choke factor is a non factor for me. I just think either the Spurs or the Thunder would beat the Heat in a 7 game series. Home court is big and both are near unstoppable on the offensive end. The way they score will put a lot of pressure on Miami. Miami tends to go through scoring droughts.

                      spurs +135 to win it all now
                      heat +125 to win it all now
                      thunder +385 to win it all now

                      not sure if you like spurs you would get a better price before the finals. now if the spurs go down 2-1 to okc you might get max value there.

                        interesting line there. Would lend you to believe maybe a - 120 favorite for SA if they make it because it's pretty much guaranteed that Miami makes it to the final

                            You would be wrong. The Thunder would be a massive underdog to the Heat in an NBA finals. And you would be wrong about the Thunder being able to handle the Heat. Way too young.

                              Wouldn't the books know that 95% of recreational bettors would be on the Heat strictly because of the 2 players on the team.

                              Why in the world wouldn't the heat be -140 - -200 ?????


                              Sure the Spurs play good ball. Who gonna check Lebron James? Who gonna check Dwayne Wade? Lebron sure is gonna have to exert a lot of energy guarding those stud 3/4's on the Spurs...Unless they throw him on Ginobili...

                                so you are gonna base a large wager on a 10 game sample rather then thinking about his 28/9/7 stats over a 104 game playoff career? bol with that..

                                  Heat would definitely be favored. Around -140
