Orlando Magic, Cleveland Cavs odds to win 2007 NBA Eastern Conference
As of November 20, 2006, the Orlando Magic and Cleveland Cavs have looked most impressive and maintain the best records in the Eastern Conference.
The 7-3 Cavs had odds of 15 to 4 of winning the 2007 NBA Eastern Conference. That's a $375 payout for every $100 bet. The oddsmakers haven't caught onto Orlando just yet, offering odds of 18-1 (or a $100 bet would pay out $1800). These betting odds are courtesy of BetGameDay.com (see website here).
Orlando currently is on a 4 game hot streak. Boston has won its last 3 but still has a 4 and 6 record.
The Miami Heat are still favored 10 to 3.
For Monday there were two very lopsided games where the betting public was placing heavy action on one side.
A whopping 92% of the early action was on the Seattle Supersonics with only 8% of the action on the New Jersey Nets while the betting public also seemed to like the Portland Trailblazers as a +7 home dog verses San Antonio. The Nets were a +2 1/2 dog on the road. This one opened Seattle -1 last night.
The public of course is notoriously wrong so if betting these games we would suggest a look at the Nets and Spurs this evening.
