Celtics vs Lakers 1st two games
Can anyone convince me how this won't win? I know nothing is guaranteed, but I'm considering 50% of my BR on this process. When I saw rake post about it too, I just got more into doing it now. I've been thinking about betting BOS ML for the first game. If it loses which I really don't think it will then I'll bet the BOS ML on the 2nd game.
Does anyone really see BOS not winning one of the first two games of these series?

Boston will probably win at least one of the first two games, but what would you set the moneyline of game 2 at if Bostin wins game 1? I estimate about -150. I have the Lakers starting 2-0 a little under 17% of the time.

The thing is, I don't see the LAKERS not winning one of the first two games, so I'd rather go for the dog value. Lakers +130 tonight, and if they lose, a little heavier at a minimum of +120 in Game 2.

rake,
Yes but the difference is that the Celtics are no longer the best team in the NBA. The Lakers are since the Gasol trade and they will prove it on the court.

wheel,
I get 19.7% on Lakers winning first two. If they lose at +130 tonight, I think they will be slightly LESS at +120 in Game 2. So 43.48%(+130) x 45.45%(+120) = 19.7%

So we agree that Lakers will be +120 in Game 2 if they lose tonight.

83% or 66% chance to hit. The odds seem to be in favor of picking the Celtics.
