I mean really??  Who will beat the Heat 4 out of 7 games... Better yet, who is gonna beat Lebron James 4 out of 7 times??

It's a no-brainer ...

Most predictable sport we have right now is the NBA...

Have to agree. Only if injury takes two of the big three out of the equation.

i knew and said that before the season even started.it was rather clear after oklahoma traded Harden.thunder was the last competition left before they traded him.and eastern conference is quite simply a joke this year.there is something like grand canyon between the heat and the rest of eastern conference.even bulls with mj had better competition back in the days

I agree, miami to win it all and at -300 right now, would anyone on this board who is reading this post put down like $30,000 if they had that kind've money. Or have they heard of people who do this on sure bets, obv nothing is ever sure, but can you do this at vegas? will any casino take this kind've bet?

garbage last weekend Manchester United just had to be Aston Villa to clinch the premier league title, and the odds were -175 for them to win cuz it was a nervous moment, and they killed it winning 3-0 by half. I would've def put 20 grand on them to win, dont have the money right now but it was def gonna be an easy win.

Memphis wont even get out of the west.

There is no one who can challenge Miami

Of the 15 teams that swept the first round since NBA started a 7 games series in the 1st round in 2003, no one had gone on to win the Final.

I am not saying they will not win it, but that trend look silly isn't it ?

Lebron James (health depending), will give MJ all he wants with RINGS til it's all said and done.. This guy needed to taste that first one, and now i just think it's his time to take over and dominate...my opinion..

Memphis will not beat the Heat... Just won't happen unless one of the big 3 go down... that would be it..

Where do i find those odds? My local doesn't go to that extent with odds.. I jokingly before the playoffs began said to a buddy "watch the Heat run the table in the playoffs.. I bet that would pay nice".. I don't bet offshore, so once my local said he didn't have it, I never looked to see what it was or is now for that matter..

No plays for us this playoff season? I always check to see if you slip a play in, but not seeing it..

Heat to win it all have awful odds. Leave it and bet the games if you think the heat will win 4 of 5 in the finals. No reason to lock up your money like that.

Don't matter what you have tied up.. They stay healthy, or relatively healthy for that matter, you're a winner ..

Is it me, or was that just like the days of the Bulls when Jordan was gonna get the rock and you knew it was over.. To me, that is Lebron now.. I only wish my local would have odds after George hit all 3 FT's on the Heat winning that game.. I'd made that my biggest play of the year...

Hibbert on the bench ... really? .... really?
