Odds for the C's winning the series is up to -140. Yet, they're home dogs tonight. Oddsmakers expect the C's to win the series, but they "expect" them to lose at home tonight and win a game 7 in Miami?
I'm not claiming that I know everything, but I think this is pointing to a Boston victory tonight.

If they oddsmakers "expect" Boston to win the series, they can't possibly expect them to drop the ball tonight, and turn around and win an extremely difficult game 7 on the road.

no. boston has to win only 1 of 2 games, the heat have to win 2 games, as such the odds simply reflect boston having an easier road to the W.
I think it's pretty obvious that Boston only needs to win one game to win the series. lol
My point is that it's strange that Boston is a homedog tonight, but is favored to win the series. That kinda tells me that Boston wins that one game tonight.

Go take a community college statistics class and then get back to us.
Aah. The token asshole has arrived. You're talking stats. I'm talking logic and common sense. If the C's are favored to win the series, anybody with half a brain knows that they HAVE to do it tonight. They are not winning a game 7 in Miami. With that said, I think that the series price is offering a clue as to what's going to happen tonight and that the wrong team is favored.

look man, the reason why boston is an underdog tonite and a favorite to win the series is because even if they lose tonite they still have a shot at game 7

+120 and +350 = -130

Amazing the arrogance and assholes sometimes....
You really think that Boston will win a game 7 in Miami if they don't close out tonight. C'mon man. If Boston loses tonight, they could price the C's winning the series at +1200 and I still wouldn't take that.
I would LOVE for Boston to win the series and send Miami home, but asking them to do it in a game 7 on the road is a bit too much. That's why I feel that they will do it tonight. If they are to win the series, they HAVE to win tonight. Period.
Fuck math. That's reality and common sense. "Cochise".

Wait. Maybe I am dumb. The C's are dogs tonight at +110 and most certainly will be dogs in a game 7 based on your estimated line of +350. Yet, their series price in your calculations has them as -130 faves. It's actually at -145 now.
Heat are at -130 for tonight's game. If they win tonight we can certainly assume they're gonna be big faves for game 7. At least at around -200 logically. How does -130 and an estimated -200 for game 7 equate to the Heat still being at plus money to win the series?

I'm just saying the C's should not be favorites to win the series right now if they are "expected" to lose tonight considering that they're dogs, and most certainly be "expected" to lose game 7 where they'll be hefty dogs.

It really is just math. The Heat must win both games. Treat it as a parlay, if they are -125 now, and -350 next game, this translates into a +130 parlay. If this parlay does not hit, it means the celtics win the series at -130, add juice and its -140.
Think of a coin where you will win 49% of the time. If you only have to win 1 out of 2 flips, and your opponent has to win 2, they will win both 0.51*0.51 = 26% of the time, and so will be a large dog despite being "expected" to win both games.
It's not a weird line. If it was too different there would also be massive arbitrage opportunities in G7
