They are -230 for game 1 and will probably be the same for game 2.  When it switches to Miami, I only see it being a pick-em and I see Miami winning 1 of those so I'll take -165.

Oklahoma City will be +180 on the road, this team has only won 2 of its last 5 road games.   I think the best value would be if Miami loses game 1, getting them at +180-+200 for the series.

The finals are all a setup. The format favors the team with lower winning percentage. I personally think its some BS. Like, what's the point of a team having the best record in the NBA, if they can't, at least, have home court advantage in the finals? OKC has to play 3 games in a row in MIA. Even if OKC wins the first two, they could be in a "must win" situation by the time they return back home. Both Spurs and the Thunder have better regular season records than the Heat, so the Heat would be in the perfect position after beating Boston. With so much pressure, so much expectations, so much criticism, and so much love/hate for LeBron, the Heat are in a "must win finals" situation. Its pretty much all or none for the heat. Looking at the bigger picture, no way they lose, keep their same team, then try and reach the finals again for a third time next year. I honestly think OKC is the better team, but some how, some way, the Heat will find a way to win.

Doesn't 2-3-2 format favor team playing games 6 and 7 at home?
