What will Series Odds be for Miami vs Denver ?

M

majent

Oklahoma Sooners
Denver has the home court and the rarefied air.

Denver -200
Miami +140

??

Early pick for me is Denver in 7 but I have little confidence in myself after picking the Celtics to win it all.
 
If the Heat win tonight to complete the sweep do you still believe it will be that high? Denver -270ish

Feels very high. What would the Heat be at that price?

I am thinking Denver in 7 right now. That is my first instinct, but I also thought GS would beat the Lakers and then the LAL would play Boston in the finals, so I am very off right now lol

Heat +250ish IMO
 
My local has Denver -275 to win it all as is

If miami sweeps I'd think it sticks right around there if not bumps up a nickel or dime to 280/285
 
-275 seems too low. Expected to see -400. I can’t get it out of my head that the 10 seed Bulls were -500 live to win the game late against the Meat. That’s on me.

I tend to agree. Celts were just -500 in the same scenario 3 games ago.....something north of -300 to me is where it "should" be but likely not giving involved holding a Nuggets 10-1 ticket from a couple months back
 
-270 sounds about right. I have Nuggets in 6. But then again, I also had Miami not getting out of round 1, Celtics going to Finals, Warriors beating Lakers, and a thousand other wrong things so Heat will probably somehow sweep them.

i had the same !! :cheers3:

the only reason i had the Heat beating the Bucks is because the Freak was out the first 2 or 3 games

i think the world can now see how strong the Heat and their role players truly are so I would be pretty surprised if it was -300 or higher

if Denver is -270 they won't put the Heat at + odds that close it will they?

there is typically a decent margin on the - and + odds, no?

I was thinking Heat +225 max if the Nuggets are -275

but i am probably wrong.

Sounds about right

DK has Nuggets -280 to win it all so guessing Heat would be +230/240 max

what about series odds if it is Boston v Denver? (C's will have home court advantage)

The books are so high on the C’s. I’d expect them to be a small favorite. Maybe -140? Could have been as high as -180 had they not struggled so badly this series. It should be much closer to a PK, though, if they move on.

Yes

Denver will be a decent sized favorite regardless the team they play

Game 1 and series. I know it's shocking the best team in basketball would be favored but it's true

Oh I can't project lines like that

I think Jaylen Brown is hurt significantly and he's basically just another 3 pt shooter at this point

No clue how I'd line it til it happens

*Most* years, the Western Conf participant in the finals has a better record than the Eastern Conf team.

not so this year unless Miami wins the Boston series.

Denver only won 53 games this year. Way off the typical wins for the Western Conference top seed.

guys
Boston had the better regular season record than Denver.

I am 1 million percent sure that Boston gets home court vs Denver.

Boston 57 wins vs Denver 53 wins in regular season.

Boston would get games 1 and 2 at the garden.

You're right

What a shit system
 
everyone i know is ready to crown the Nuggets.

setting them up for a big time failure in the finals if they play Boston.

my opinion.

Complete opposite here

Don't know one person personally who likes the Nuggets regardless of Boston or Miami

They are a bottled up failure in the minds of the people I know
 
everyone i know (vast majority are Laker fans) hate boston so much they are rooting Miami and crowning Denver.

i want to see them all disappointed. it is puke worthy man.

They played the East

It's not difficult to understand schedule differential

so every year the east is worse than the west?

this year's west:

- memphis 2 seed. messy team.
- sacto 3 seed. so young
- GS did not have steph and wiggins for 40 games each
- clippers no kawhi and no PG13 most of the year

weakest West i have seen in maybe 30 years.

i don't agree with you Bud.

it is kind of like SEC fans thinking they have the best conference each year in college football. they don't. not every year.

the east was strong this year.

The heat the #8 seed with guys who made the finals just 3 years ago?

it was a strong east, bro.
 
You're coming across as a Celtics fan, if so just say so

I can't imagine most of the country crowning the Nuggets against the Celtics lol unless you're angry about it

Celtics would be a massive public team in that final, C's fans are like fire ants

Completely disagree but not into that debate tonight, still got to cap some shit
 
Debating a hypothetical causes strokes and heart attacks, I try to stay away from all of that

won't argue but you are saying the West is Always better than the East?

Always avoid always and never say never.

The East from top to bottom was better than the West this year.

Denver only won 53 games in a weaker than usual west.

I am a clippers fan not a Boston fan, but watching Laker fans sweat about Boston possibly winning their 18th title, is fun.

Yeah I don't care about that stuff. Boston is likely a 6-8 seed in the West

West by FAR was better than the other side

it's a good thing they actually play out the finals:

the last 20 years 2003 through 2022 champions, inclusive:

2022 = GS
2021 = Bucks (east)
2020 = lakers
2019 = Raptors (east)
2018 = GS
2017 = GS
2016 = Cavs (east)
2015 = GS
2014 = spurs
2013 = heat (east)
2012 = heat (east)
2011 = dallas
2010 = lakers
2009 = lakers
2008 = celtics (east)
2007 = spurs
2006 = heat (east)
2005 = spurs
2004 = pistons (east)
2003 = spurs

The east has won 8 times, the west 12

is the West usually better? Yes

is the West always a better conference from top to bottom? No. hardly.

just like the SEC is not always the best CFB conference from top to bottom.


GO CELTICS GO

BEAT MIAMI and BEAT DENVER.

please.
