If you like losing money, then yeah it's worth it.

[DeadlyDynasty]

The risk/reward is more than worth it.

[oh crap]

OKC might even lose to Memphis. Seriously, they are getting overrated.

you still got portland to get past one step at a time, one step at a time (mono on my in 1...2....)

What don't they have?

--They have scoring, defense (both on the perimeter and in the post), rebounding, and a good bench.
--They have superstars with ref-cred, and a great HCA (meaning they only need to win one roadie).
--They're coached well. Brooks is nothing special, but he's not a dumbass who costs his teams games either (Spo). His subs utions are good and he always seems to have the right line-ups on the floor.

--They excel in the clutch (unlike the Miami Heat, who are atrocious here).

--They can play uptempo or halfcourt, as well as defend both styles.

The only thing they don't have is experience, but the only team that legitimately can beat them (in the WC) they have previous experience against. Add seasoned vet and Laker nemesis Kendrick Perkins and it only helps them.


They pretty much have it all. The only red-flag I really see is Westbrook's tendency to wanna be the hero.

I'm not saying they'll win it, but at 15/1 you'd have to be a dumbass not to at least throw a little $$ down on them.

OKC is the favorite in the West right now

Lakers so called untouchable bigs struggling against Okafor and Landry

[Venti Quattro]

Westbrook is going to be their Kobe, if he shoots too much they will most definitely lose. But despite that he is just so valuable for Durant as he breaks down defenses with his craft and speed.

Agree

Memphis is a cool 200/1 if you're feeling frisky

I've done it often in the past few years and have one more than I've lost luckily.....but if there's on thing both winning and losing has taught me, there's no such thing as a sure thing especially when the unexpected plays in (injury, etc.).
