No real chance of getting them +400, BUT, if you think they are going to win, I would take Heat 4-2 +1050 and Heat 4-3 +700. IF they win, I highly doubt it will be 4-0 or 4-1.

I am likely taking the Lakers 4-3 +400.

I really do not like the NBA, but I do think the league definitely wants LeBron to win. That is what best promotes the league and the old conspiracy theorist in me believes it. I only watched a little of the Denver series and LeBron got away with many fouls on the defensive end that were not called. Millennials love talking about how great this team is, etc., but I really do not see it. The Heat will give the Lakers fits because they actually play defense and can shoot the ball. The Heat definitely match up with them and if they continue to play like they have they can win the series. They have beaten better teams than the Lakers have to get there. They have a big coaching advantage with Pat Riley in their corner also. This is a team that has greatly benefited from the bubble and I think they play well, but my money is on the Lakers pull it out in 7.

I like the Heat +5 in game one, but I will probably wait until halftime to bet as the Heat have been stronger in the second half.

Appreciate the insight, and yeah 4-0, 4-1 Heat are both super unlikely. I will definitely be on the Heat large in game 1.

Lebron was getting away with murder in those late game situations. I actually think this Lakers team is awful. BUT, they have Lebron and AD, and that's all that has mattered at this point. Spo can do it if anyone. THis Heat team is something else... so well coached and the pieces fit together so nicely.

I agree, the Lakers will get the benefit of the doubt on the calls once again.

Le"CRY"Bron will get all the calls or none of the calls against him. And bitch more then he plays:mj07:
He is such a good player....but I can't stand to watch him.

I like the HEAT. They are playing the best basketball of anyone in the bubble. However believe that refs will make the HEAT earn every win and Lakers will be gifted a win or two.

Hard call but would lean toward NBA giving Cry-Bron his day as a Laker. Such Crap
