  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
so i found a good bet on the celtics...
NBA championship 2011 winners with odds of 6.5 to 1.
meaning i throw down 1000 bucks and get $6.5K back.
I'm clueless with sportsbetting but i searched around all the sites and these were the best odds i could find within the last month.

Just out of interest does anyone else think that derrek rose for NBA MVP at 8 to 1 is a good bet?

I threw down a large portion on each. The was a pure gamble and i have no idea if he'll make it although he's up there in the top 3 at the moment, i also think lebron and wade being on the same team hurts lebron.

the celtics bet i would always throw down because i love the Edited for profanity.  Please do not do it again.s and they are the best team in the NBA. Just gotta stay healthy.

Any thought or opinions?
Has anyone else found better odds in the last 2 weeks than 6.5 on the NBA title?
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

Read that last line again. One more time.

LeBron is gonna win MVP so sadly your money has been thrown away there.

The efficiency numbers are too telling between the two.

Like ben showed, it was better to be on the Celts before but at least that money won't be lost regardless of your odds. :)
