Mil/Brook, was there enough of a line adjustment?

Game 1:  Brook was -4.

With Zig-Zag, we would expect a line of Brook -3.

Then we have to adjust for Harden.  Harden is worth 4.0 points to Brooklyn.    (He is worth even more if Durant is out).

So that would have Brooklyn be +1 for this game.

Given that, Mil +1.5 has some clear value (Line should be Mil -1).

Den/Phx

Phx  is -4.5 game 1, -190 ML

Given this, Phx -200 for the Series has some value, strong lean Phx Series

Phx is the clear cut better team (I have by 3 points).

Phx 6.5, Den 3.5 in my power ratings.

Playoff Theme:  PARITY!  No team has even a 2/3 chance to win the next series!  Contrast that with some prior years, where by example Golden State has a 2/3 chance TO WIN THE TITLE vs. the Field.

Mil/Brook:  Nets -210/Mil 180

Atl/Phil:     Atl -110/PHIL -110

Den/PHX:   Den 170/PHX -200

La/UT:        La 115/UTAH -135
