Spurs in 6

Too much execution. Too many weapons. Too much Parker.

Cant bet against a team who hasn't lost in the Finals

besides if Miami wins another they'd already have more rings than us

that parker/bron matchup you were talking about is going to decide everything... kawhi leonard is also an x-factor

I mean it's right there in front of Spo's face... Brooks put Sefalosha on Parker and it changed the series. You might not see it until later in the game though. Pop can counteract it by isolating Parker out on either wing but you never know...

Man, these cats always jinx my bets.

I got a good stack on Heat in 6, but I also have side bets as well.

Lebron triple double.....any game 15-1.

Any Heat player except Lebron 30 points 50-1.

LeBron leads team average in points rebounds assists 10-1.

Wade double double any game 30-1

Heat 10 blocks in any game 40-1.

20 Spurs turnovers any game 30-1.

Ready to cash in.:grin:

Only reason I'm slightly skeptical about picking the Spurs, is that I've never seen Dwyane Wade have a poor Finals
