Any one gamble on Warriors here?

I put 100 bucks on Warriors before the 2015 season (nice 12-1 payout). Only time I've ever bet on sports and haven't since.

I'm putting 1k on Warriors to win it all next season. I think they have a chance even JUST with Wiggins and a vet (Marc G for example).

Anyone else bet on Warriors...stories?

my brother and i did some bets a few years ago, only "long time" bets, for example on nba champions. so he wanted to place a bet on the nba champion in 2015, i told him, the only team i can place a bet on in the nba are the Ws, so he put 5 euros and i put 10 euros on the warriors to win it all back then. i won 380 euros back then, still the only time i won something with a bet on sports. but man, that felt good back then :lol:

Futures are great. I took the Falcons to win the NFC a few years back at 12/1 or 13/1. Interesting enough I didn't pick the Falcons to win it all because I didn't think they could beat the Patriots. The NCAA tourney is the real rollercoaster, that's a tough one.

The NBA imo was kinda pointless prior to this season since we were so dominant. I think Boston was like 12/1 at one point and that was tempting, they are probably the 2nd best team in the East. I am not a huge believer in the Bucks because Giannis isn't a good shooter and Middleton is a meh 2nd option.

I would take Warriors at 12/1. Somehow fans believed we were way too good to get Durant and it was unfair and we didn't need him. Now that Durant is gone so is the contending window.

My religion strictly forbids gambling

My only sports betting rule is to never bet on the Warriors. And that’s going back to we believe days. Some would say I’m just a bad bet!

I actually won $1000 on the Mavericks back when they beat the Heat in the Finals. For me at the time that felt like a million dollars. I’m a small time better. ($50-$100 bets). I enjoy small bets and playing slowly - I invested more time into looking at matchups and trends and analyzing players and situations. Fun time.

Are there odds out now? I’ve googled but couldn’t find anything. As of right now however I would have fun betting a small amount on Warriors winning the championship ship (although I said I don’t bet on Warriors).

Odds on next season don't usually come out until this season is over. I wouldn't expect it to be any different this time around.

Lol, only every game.

I've won stacks on the Warriors over the years, but I've also lost stacks. Probably has evened out really. I play roll on 10K/20K challenges, and multi challenges on player performance and win/loss markets.

Worldwide betting on sport is another huge reason why some leagues around the world are desperate to get going again.
