I posted this a few times earlier in the year, but can't believe I only put a rack on it, smh..
I don't think we have seen a favorite like this in awhile betting wise....
it's at least 2 to 1 or 3/2
Can't even get a good price on Spurs Fan insurance

I got them again for +250 or so in December or January, though, fortunately..

I refuse to bet on other teams that play against the Spurs or play daily fantasy & shyt b/c I REFUSE to root against the Spurs nor root for a player on another team. It takes the fun out of it & it's too much motha' in' work.
I made money on tennis but I got burnt out & quit.Now, I'm tempted to put money on the Cripples against the Duds b/c they are HEAVY underdogs but I have to see how they look in the 1st rd.
If Danny can get his mojo back, I'll also be tempted to put money on the Spurs otherwise Porker/Danny are going to break my screen w/ their bricks.
Nice of you to donate to the book
I'll write it off as donation.
I still cheer for the Spurs when I bet against them, tbh..it's good to have fan insurance, in addition to putting emotions aside and betting with logicI refuse to bet on other teams that play against the Spurs or play daily fantasy & shyt b/c I REFUSE to root against the Spurs nor root for a player on another team.

The most $ I ever won betting against the Spurs in the playoffs was the 2008 playoffs IIRC..I won a lot on the Clippers series, last year, as I posted here, and I parlayed game 7 with Mayweather over Pacquiao(which was one of the easiest bets in sports history
I'll bet in favor of them when I'm confident that they will win, though..the 2014 Finals was the most $ I've ever won betting on sports, and I put heavy dough on them to win the West in 2013, too..just have to pick your spots..fortunately, I've never been in a situation where I bet on the Spurs in the playoffs and they lost, that would probably be a terrible feeling
Same here but i fear Blake won't regain early season form by then..those two games they lost went to the wire and had 4th quarter lead in each while the Warriors were playing their peak basketball during the 24-0 run..by the far the most intriguing series and it could be to the Warriors what the 2014 Mavs were to the Spurs...I refuse to bet on other teams that play against the Spurs or play daily fantasy & shyt b/c I REFUSE to root against the Spurs nor root for a player on another team.

Didn't realize heat were that favored back then, but its always so much easier getting to finals in east
The emergence of their bench is actually what's intriguing me. Cole Aldrich is a legit backup & can actually score in the post unlike their starting center.
Their X-factor is Jeff Green, he has to outplay Barnes for them to have a chance. (Pierce is unplayable unless it's for situational end of game/quarter plays )
I would've jumped on that action, tbh. Cleveland will be a threat if the Spurs were to wear em down though.
They were also heavy favorites in the Finals: Miami is given 5/12 odds while San Antonio is set at 2/1.
2015 Golden State -190 Cleveland +170 2014 San Antonio -125 Miami +105 2013 San Antonio +200 Miami -240
I would have liked if they have kept Matt Barnes over this mental midgetThe emergence of their bench is actually what's intriguing me. Cole Aldrich is a legit backup & can actually score in the post unlike their starting center.

He did have a solid series against the Knicks in 2013 when he was playing for the Celtics under Doc. Even Josh Smith had his moments last postseason.I would have liked if they have kept Matt Barnes over this mental midget
