Bet the NBA openers, Futures at betED.com
The 2008-09 NBA season tips off Tuesday and betED.com has lines for all three opening-night matchups as well as NBA Future Odds.
The NBA Champion Boston Celtics get things started when they host the Cleveland Cavaliers (8:05 pm ET, TNT). The Celtics are a 7-point favorite and the over/under total is 179.5 in betED.com NBA Betting Odds.
Boston is a +300 favorite to win the NBA Championship and +135 to win the Eastern Conference. The Cavaliers are +850 to win the NBA title and +400 to win the East.
Another tilt Tuesday has the Chicago Bulls hosting the Milwaukee Bucks at 8:35 pm ET, with the Bulls a 6-point favorite and the total at 194 at betED.com. The Bulls are +2500 to win the NBA Championship and +1400 to win the East, while the Bucks are among the longest longshots, at +8000 and +4500, respectively.
In the nightcap, the Portland Trailblazers visit the Los Angeles Lakers (10:35 pm ET, TNT). The Lakers are a 7.5-point favorite and the total is 196.5.
Los Angeles is right behind the Celtics at +325 to win the 2008-09 NBA Championship, and is the favorite to win the Western Conference at +150 odds. Portland is +2500 and +1100.
Boston will be looking to repeat after knocking off Kobe Bryant and the Lakers in six games to capture their first title NBA title since 1986 and the 17th in franchise history last season.
Paul Pierce, who took home MVP honors in the finals, led the club in scoring (19.6 ppg), while Ray Allen averaged 17.4 points in 73 games during the regular season and Kevin Garnett posted 18.8 points and a team-best 9.2 rebounds per game.
The Lakers will get a big boost this season with the return of Andrew Bynum, who spent the offseason rehabbing from the dislocated kneecap suffered in January.
Just 20-years old, the 7-foot, 285-pound Bynum could be a key cog in putting the Lakers over the top. Bynum averaged 13.1 points and 10.2 rebounds in the 35 games he played before the injury.
As well, Los Angeles' starting frontline during the NBA Finals of Lamar Odom, Vladimir Radmanovic and Pau Gasol are all back.
