I saw this bet on sportsbook.com Kobe is -300 to win it while the field is +200. Strongly considering a bet on the field. Obviously if the Celtics win the series, Kobe won't win it. Considering the Celtics are listed at +160, this bet seems like a nice option. Plus who knows maybe someone else on the Lakers steps up to have a huge series and wins the award. Unlikely, but possible. Any opinions??

Lakers win and Kobe gets the MVP. Surprised the odds are as low as -300. I'd jump on it.

Do you not get what I'm trying to say? If you're so confident Lakers are going to win why in the world would you bet Kobe at -300 when you can get the series at -200? Makes absolutely no sense.
