Isn't it pretty much a sure thing that OKC will be favored over the Cavs? So why are they +600 and higher for the title, when they are only +260 for the game tonight?

They're +675

True line of approx +285 today
Tells you they will be about even money in the finals.

I guess I just don't understand why anyone would take OKC moneyline tonight when they can take futures instead, and then buy back on the Cavs. Pinny had Cavs over the Thunder at +700 and Thunder at +604, so there is no way the Cavs are gonna be favored over the Thunder.

Not sure on the +604 but both BM and 5D had like +675 this morning. If +675 is the line that says Cle/OKC is going to approx be even.

And right now, betonline has the thunder at +160 for the next series, while Pinny has dropped the Thunder to +520 to win the title. Have I died and gone to a crazy universe where logic no longer exists?

I guess what Pinny is saying is to pound the living shit out of Thunder +160 vs cavs, because that is a freeroll.

You don't think the Cavs should be -180 over the Thunder with home court advantage?

You`re crazy.

Nah I'd like OKC there.

I know Cle is a tough team to judge because the East is so weak compared to the West, but I don't see them being able to get defensive stops vs a legit offense.

I don't think the line will open that high elsewhere but BetOnline may be right.

So in effect, Betonline is offering Thunder at +850, while Pinny says they are +520. I'll bite.
