NBA Final Betting Odds and Propositions
The NBA Finals are set to tip off on Thursday night, as the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors prepare for their highly-anticipated rematch. Here's a rundown of the odds, records, and other interesting facts surrounding this year's championship series.
The Warriors are favored to win the Finals, with odds of 3/2, while the Cavaliers are the underdogs at 6/5. LeBron James and Stephen Curry, two of the league's most dominant players, are again at the forefront of the competition.
Curry has the highest odds to lead the NBA Finals in points-per-game, while James has the second-highest odds to win the NBA Finals MVP. James also has the upper hand in the race to win more career NBA titles, with odds of 3/2 compared to Curry's 7/3.
However, when it comes to acquiring new endorsements, Curry has the advantage, with odds of 1/3 compared to James' 3/1. Meanwhile, odds are 13/10 for a Curry statue to be built outside the Warriors' arena, while a LeBron James statue outside the Cavs' arena is a near certainty, with odds of 1/1.
The over/under for total number of flagrant fouls in the NBA Finals has been set, as well as the total number of technical fouls. Odds have also been set for several players to be playing for a different team next year, and for which head coach will be fired first.
The series odds for a third straight Golden State vs. Cleveland matchup in the NBA Finals are 9/2. Odds have been set for the series to go 5 games, 6 games, or 7 games, adding to the excitement of this highly anticipated series.
Intriguingly, odds for James and Curry to play on the same team for at least one season are 20/1. The head coach of the team the Warriors faced in the 2017 NBA Finals, Steve Kerr, was with the Warriors, while Tyronn Lue coached the Cavaliers. Odds have been set for either head coach (Tyronn Lue or Steve Kerr) to not be with the same team next year.
Lastly, odds to win more career NBA Finals MVPs favour James (1/4), with Curry (15/1) and a tie (6/1) following behind. James also holds the odds to hold more individual NBA records at the end of their career (1/4), with Curry (4/1) in second place.
With these odds and facts in mind, the 2017 NBA Finals are shaping up to be an unforgettable showdown between two of the league's best teams and players. Buckle up and get ready for an exciting series!
