LAS was 500:1 to win the SC. There was no other side of the bet.

You haven’t made a point, but regardless, a one point game isn’t nearly that extreme odds.

And even if it were - i never said Vegas would make that specific bet, so I’m not sure why your obsessing over it . Go ahead - quote something I said that has no relevance to your point.

Some bets they won’t offer both sides and this would be one of them. If you had a basic understanding of bookmaking you would understand why.

Enlighten me.

Btw, 4.2% of games this year in the nba were won by a margin of one. And that’s of all games - not ones where the spread is one. Hardly crazy chances. Why wouldn’t Vegas set odds to this bet that someone would take?

They should have a 3pt contest and be done with it. This isn't basketball.

It definitely is a significant part of basketball. But yes - this game isn't a pretty one to watch on both ends, but especially on my end.

So is crying for a foul every time you are touched. Ruining the game.

The way CLE is playing anyone deserves to win. Painful to watch. And my finals $$$$ is moving further from reach.
