Jesus, just reading about Wade's series makes me wish the NBA didn't chase me away as a fan in the mid 90's. It sounds as if it was legendary. The numbers are just plain ridiculous

ESPN's Page 2 had a column about how a Heat championship will actually be really bad for the game. MJ syndrome all over again, so expect more Allen Iversons for years to come.
The NBA and their shitty refs are mostly to blame. Game 5 was a travesty.

NHL Playoffs started April 21st and ended June 19th.
NBA Playoffs started April 22nd and ended June 20th.
Maybe he's confused due to the "popularity" factor. NBA Games were more widely televised (in the US) and there was more board activity around the NBA games here.

There was a story on CNN/SI about Ben Wallace signing with the Bulls moving them from 30:1 to 12:1 odds for winning the championship next year. I'm ok with that as they got some great rookies as well.
The worst odds I see below is 5:1 for the Heat repeating. No way. They's a bunch of old fogeys. Best bet I see is, of course, the Suns at 6:1 if Amare is healthy!
Here's the Bellagio's line on the '07 NBA championship, as of July 10:
Mavs (4:1), Heat (5:1), Spurs (5:1), Suns (6:1), Pistons (7:1), Cavs (12:1), Bulls (12:1), Nets (15:1), Rockets (20:1), Nuggets (20:1), Clippers (20:1); Kings (25:1), Pacers (25:1), Lakers (25:1), Grizzlies (30:1), Wizards (35:1), 76ers (35:1), Magic (40:1), Bucks (40:1), Celtics (40:1), Jazz (50:1), T'wolves (50:1), Hornets (60:1), Sonics (60:1), Warriors (75:1), Bobcats (75:1), Hawks (100:1), Raptors (150:1), Knicks (150:1), Blazers (300:1).
