Price is probably dead-on right now.

If it had to be any different I'd say Heat -120/-130 as champions until they are unseated...

I have Heat at even $ to win it all (took it earlier in the week). We'll have to see how this develops to see an opportunity to hedge or double up!

Just a week ago Spurs were the fav and Miami was +140/+150 to win it all.

I'm sure money coming in has changed a lot, but not sure much has changed between the two teams since then...

Wade is way healthier this year, LeBron is at his apex and they carry a legitimate psychological advantage into this series based on what happened last year.

I got a future on the Heat at +160 and I'll probably bet a little more at even money but it should be a hell of a series.

FWIW if OKC somehow did beat SA I would've had to go to the Red Cross and say take all the blood out of my body you need so I could bet it on Miami. I don't think that would've been a very good series at all (even though Miami would've likely been no more than -150)

Miami would have been a terrible matchup for OKC

Yeah that would've been ugly honestly. It is easy to say now but that would've probably been my biggest bet ever.

OKC has no good wing defenders besides Durant since Thabo sucks now, he would've had to cover LeBron for close to 40 mins and there is no way he could do that and score efficiently.

OKC also lacks frontcourt scoring so they couldn't discourage Miami from going small at all. Turn the ball over a lot, coaching deficit, etc

OKC still got a bright future but in the here and now yeah that would've been rough.

Spurs are a slight favorite to win everywhere right now ! Spurs are somewhere between - 120 to -125. 5 Dimes also now has Spurs favored. Anyone who takes a look at stats should easily see that this years Heat team is NOT as good as last years team.

Wouldn't put too much into the Heats team stats. Coming into the year they had played almost 300 games the last 3 years and Wade took 30 games off for rest in the regular season so he could be healthy right now (he can thank LeBron for carrying the load and allowing that) They obviously treated this year like a marathon, not a sprint

All good points but it's hard to ignore the fact that the Heat won 12 less games this year than last and their average winning margin per game was down by quite a bit. Also the Spurs have increased their win total this year by 4 games and have the best record in all of the NBA. This shapes up as a real battle !! GL

I think both teams go into the finals better than last year.

I said I'm betting the Heat but I do wanna see what the Spurs player odds for finals MVP are. Could see a few of those being decent values and giving me a little hedge.

Kawhi Leonard most specifically. Hard to see SA winning this year and him not being in their top 2 MVPs but unfortunately voters tend to just give it to the guy with the best basic stats.
