NBA Futures... Discussion and plays

Locked in on one that really caught my eye... Would love to hear input and if anybody else has anything they are big on


Washington to win their division
3/4.8 (+160)

Miami will not completely fall off the map, and everybody says Chicago is who we have to worry about, but I really like this Washington team and they scare the hell out of me.. I was expecting (and planned on playing) them somewhere around even money.. Anything to the plus is a steal IMO... Especially coming back at over 1 1/2... Thoughts, advice, questions, definitely interested in finding me another one as well if anybody has anything they really like

i like the odds you are getting with the wiz.... Bradleys injury hurts, but I really like what they have added to their bench, now they need those bodies to step up..

i like the suns and hawks over.. i got a great number on the suns..( i think)

Probably get called crazy and don't know how popular this will be....Very very close to pulling trigger on the Spurs total wins UNDER... that West is pretty nasty.. I know a lot of have been saying this for a long time,and hats off to the Spurs.. Unbelievable decade..but whether it's the Injury bug, the very tough western conference,I don't know, but I think the will have a letdown, disappointing season..95% sure this will be a play, will post when final!

also taking a hard look at under lakers,, even before the nash injury..
Tough conference and if Kobe starts pouting (i expect him too) he will take every shot or will pass every time. (remember when he did that)..

Thoughts on Heat over? I was going to lock in the under today as one of my bigger plays. Wade will be lucky to get in 65 games this year, lost a lot of bench depth and who knows how they respond in losing the best player in the league

2 more season plays I was strongly considering are Pistons over 36 and Rockets over 49. Pistons bring in SVG to a team that is loaded with individual talent but a lot of morons (Jennings, Smith, Drummond). Their frontcourt talent is some of the best in the east.

Bosh will be the player he was in Toronto and add more value to this team getting back to low to mid 20's in points and more important double digit rebounds. The Heat were the worst rebounding team in the NBA last year that will improve. They also have one of the best coaches in the league. Wade's knee's are always a concern and 65 games would be a plus and they have a +8 which is good as far as playing as a rested team against a teams on a back to backs. They do that 14 times this year while they play a rested team when they're playing back to back only 6 times for the +8 and that's one of the highest in the league.
Advantage Heat. I also think people are writing this team off and the number is low and should be in the 46/47 range.

Also for those who like Cleveland over not saying it can't happen but they have a couple of serious scheduling disadvantages and I'm sure it's factor into the total wins but I take the Under even in the weak East.

I like the pick-up in Deng and I'm also a big Udonis fan and Granger fan who can hopefully give Wade some rest and also Deng. Like all Futures it mostly comes down to health. IF they can stay healthy and not miss major time they could win 50
