Tonight will start off a highly anticipated NBA Finals between the Miami Heat and Dallas Mavericks. Ever since LeBron James made the decision to head to South Beach, the team has quickly become the team in the NBA everyone outside of Miami loves to hate.
Right now the series price has the Mavericks +145 and the Heat -175. I'd imagine that Vegas would love to see Dallas win as most of the preseason money on a champion was probably on the Heat.
Now is the time to make any predictions, get them in here so you can "I told you so" after a new champion is crowned. I'll take the Mavericks in six, with Dirk Nowtizki winning the MVP (obviously). However, I think the real story will end up being the defense of Shawn Marion and inside presence of Tyson Chandler. Keep in mind Dallas has won 10 of their last 11 games and their three playoff losses are by a total of 13 points.
Who do you have?
