Not a bad bet, considering the outcome probably has already been determined. When the President of ABC says that ABC "would kill" for a Laker-Celtic final, and the NBA utters those very same thoughts, I would certainly not wager against that possibility. There is no way I trust the NBA. They died ratings wise last year, getting out drawn by the final episode of the Soprano's in Finals Game 1, and steadily going downhill from there.

Actually it is 2000 to win 100. But there is no value in this play. Even if you bet 200,000 to win 10,000.......it isn't worth risking losing 200,000. If you have that kind of money what is an extra 10,000? Lets assume FDS has a bankroll of 10,000. And that is extrmely generous if you ask me. Well......if he bet it all....he would only win 500. Why risk it all just or that? There has to be better value somewhere else. But....I hope you win this.

The funny thing about all of these ML risk it all bets is that FDS is actually seemingly pretty good at betting pointspreads. Well....atleast from what I have seen him pick

Would never place these types of wagers cause theres always a "chance". But the C's wont lose today at home. Not playing the spread, will be nervous enough watching it, but I just cant see anyway the Celtics lose.

Which is why Im not wagering on it, even though I think theres basically no shot. And yes, anythign can happen in a game 7, but that statement is over used. The Celtics are a much better team and have blown the Hawks out in all 3 gaems at home. IMO the only thing that can happen in this game 7 is the Celts win by 5 or 6 or the Celts win by 18, just a matter of by how much. But again, would never wager 2000 to win 100.
