4th highest, whaat? Apparently trying to rip off dumb gamblers.

 

Absolutely. No rational person would peg them as the team with the 4th best chance to win the title. Then, many gamblers are very rational people and Vegas is doing right to minimize their risk with people that do want to take the Cavs.

 

Sorry to say this but it's Dallas.

 

I like the Raptors buuttt they're ahead of a few teams they probably shouldn't be on that list.

 

Apology not accepted.

I'd argue that the East should dominate the top because they are going to cakewalk their way to the finals and be well rested. The west is going to be battle royale.

 

Cavs won't make the playoffs...

 

As funny as that would be, I can't imagine it happening in the playoffs. Unless Lebron is out a really long time, they'll get at least the 35 wins or so it will take to get in.

However, if they do miss the playoffs, can we finally cool it with the Kevin Love hype?

 

What!!?!! Cool it?! Love is the best ever?!!? Lol, I don't know if people are watching the games, but Love definitely needs to be cooled off this year... Someone was suggesting we trade Harden for him at some point. ROFL, I'm so glad the Rockets would never do that...
