Tough one to call I think. Heart says Heat, head says Thunder. I'm going with the Thunder 4-2.   NBA - Championship 2012

I don't know...based on the way Lebron and Wade have been played the past 3 games, I say Heat in 7. But regardless, it's probably the most 'exciting' finals we've had for years.

There is only one word to describe this series... EPICI might have stabbed myself in the face if it was Spurs vs Celtics.

It will give me great pleasure, if and when the Heat are defeated. If my Bulls never win another championship I can rest easy if the Heat with LeBron/Wade/Bosh never do as well. On the plus side, I've actually had interest in the NBA due to my hatred for the Heat. Go Thunder   All bets are one unit ($50) unless otherwise noted.

Amazing how different the lines are in Vegas
OKC is about -145 to -165 to win the series here
If Wade plays like Wade, Heat in 6, if not OKC in 7

I think Miami takes this series and that 2.44 looks like pretty good odds to me.

just looking at the game 1 odds 3.10 for Miami looks like very good value! and the +4.5 isn't a bad buffer either  Miami @ Oklahoma City - Money Line

Solid opening quatrter by the Heat. Their "no names" are shooting extremely well. Slightly leaning Heat ML but heavy on Heat +5.5. Hoping the game goes under too  "I'm going to see the horse doctor today. How the horse became a doctor, I'll never know." Dwight K. Schrute.

Talk about a game of 2 different halves
Heat have no answer for Durant at all
Bosh & Wade will cost the Heat this series if Bosh doesn't get off that 3pt line & Wade keeps playing like a scrub
Lebron got his, the other 2 need to do something

 Miami @ Oklahoma City - Money LineBosh was soft in game 1, I agree G. Wade... I wish he would stop playing for the foul, just for once!

 Oklahoma City @ Miami - Money LineValue on OKC now. Really thought they would make it all the way back in game two but dug such a huge hole real early. They have shown though that they can quickly overcome big deficits and even if they get down early in Miami they can still win. This game is huge in terms of the series as Miami has 3 in a row at home. All bets are one unit ($50) unless otherwise noted.

I really didn't think the Heat were going to pull it back to 1-1. They seemed to be so reliant on Lebron, Bosh looked horrible and Wade looked old. But here we are... if they play well enough, they won't even need to go back to Oklahoma. Can they win the next 3 at home and take it 4-1? http://ca.sports.yahoo.c...mOcc5YlWcoGtLMmxcdXqbwM6

Miami have gotten off to lightning starts in the first 2 games with OKC being able to reel them in both time and unlucky not to at least tie the game in g2 with a contentious no call on Durant. I don't see this game following the trend and it's gonna be a see-saw affair with Miami nailing some clutch shots in the final minutes to come away with a win. Here's hoping anyway.

Wow, Westbrook was firing on all cylinders, must have brain freezed him into not checking the clock out properly.

The Thunder are close and have progressed nicely the past couple years, but they just don't know how to win yet on such a big stage while Miami has figured it out. Unfortunately this means the Heat are likely going to be champs  All bets are one unit ($50) unless otherwise noted.

Westbrook was unbelievable in game 4! yeah the foul was dumb, but he pretty much carried the team all game. Lebron and Wade looked a bit gimpy for a while there, and while Bron was on the bench the Heat looked pretty average. would take a miracle for OKC to take the next 3 games, but who knows. If they win game 5, the last 2 are on their home court.

Westbrook was a beast in game 4 but it just wasn't enough. Durant needs to be more aggressive for the Thunder to keep the series alive. Harden needs to see less of the ball, he turns the ball over a lot and makes bad decisions. Tomorrow morning is going to be a cracking game!

On the OKC ML tonight at +140.
That series price is right about where everyone that has it still up is at
Took the Thunder for a small play at +425 to win it all
