People getting overexcited. The odds are against the Cavs.

[livinglegend]

- Home court is the most important element for game 7. Home team rarely loses game 7.
- Kyrie hurt his foot in game 6. He will need to play great and with foot hurt, it will be unlikely.
- The refs will favor GSW. With all the fines, the media attention over the rigging and the warriors who will boo each call against their team, the refs will side gsw most likely. ( Curry won't get called for more than 2 fouls no matter what he does, that for sure)
- Thompson won't have back2back bad games, Barnes can't get worse.
- Warriors losing 3 straight games and 2 straight homes games? Very unlikely.
- Love and the whole bench minus Jefferson have been useless for most of the series. That won't change in away game 7.


Things going cavs way:
- iggy looked hurt in game 6.
- Lebron plays well in elimination games and especially in games 7.

Odds of winning:
Cavs: 20% Warriors: 80%

ok

It's either going to be a Warriors blow out or a dog fight the whole way through. The former is more likely.

[ScalsFan21]

Let's not forget: 73 wins. Back to back MVP and "UMVP" to boot. Deepest team on planet capable of sustaining injuries. Top 5 crowd in the world. More motivation than they could know what to do with.

Imagine LeBron wins this. Just imagine. :bowdown:

The odds were against them the past 2 games too....doesn't mean shit

[TAZORAC]

I'm thinking this might be a savage blowout..like 120 to 89 or something.

I think it's gonna be a close game, with the Warriors pulling away at the end.

How so? The Warriors were without Draymond in game 5 and game 6 was on the road. Once they announced the Green suspension I knew there was a good chance this series was going 7.

That's pretty much been the trend, in the last six Game 7's of the Finals the home team has won by 9, 3, 6, 7, 4, 7

Game 5, the odds were against them, but not game 6.

[warriorfan]

No Bogut

Injured Iguodala

Injured Curry

2 out of 3 of GSW's best defenders are out of commission

Including the MVP is not at 100%

Cavs have all the momentum

This is LeBron's game, this should be an easy slam dunk for him, especially if he is considered to supposedly be a top 15 All Time Great

[livinglegend]

As expected, odd makers have Warriors as the favorite.

[raprap]

A klay thompson dagger or lebron game winner is going to end this series. Hopefully

[macmac]

Of course the warriors are favourite, they've been 7pt favourites at home, 5.5 with Green suspended.

Odds makers have to have Warriors as the favorites but its not because of basketball reasons

Warrior fans have more money than Cleveland fans so there is going to be more money riding on the Warriors

If Vegas picks Cleveland and Warriors win, they will have to make out a gigantic payday to all of the Warrior fans and take the Loss

If Vegas Picks Warriors to win and Cleveland wins, they wont have to pay out as much because Cleveland people are poor and wont bet as much, but vegas still get paid off the vig and life is good for the bookmakers

[Fudge]

LeBron is the underdog once again for the 5th straight Finals.

Everybody expects them/him to lose. Everything is going against them. I hope he can overcome it.

You don't know shit about betting, so STFU.
You are making a retard out of yourself by talking about things you don't know anything about.

[diamenz]

not too bad of a post by op's standards.

i mostly agree, but anything can happen in sports... especially with this year's oddball finals.
