We all know in December who is going to compete for a championship, and the rest of the year is just filler (and half the league makes the playoffs). With baseball, we have no idea, so every game really does matter, and once a team makes the playoffs, they have a decent shot. That's not true in basketball.

Did you know in December the Houston Rockets were going to compete for a championship this year? Because nobody else did.
I'll give you 50 to 1 odds the rockets don't win the NBA championship.

Deal. $5 vs $250.

Done.


Can't wait to spend that $250

I thought you were an analytical guy? Analytical guys would've told me to accept that bet 100 times out of 100. Pick a lane, fool.

They won't win this series. Rick is going to smoke weed with your money.

For a moment, I couldn't for the life of me figure out why BRick made such a moronic bet.

Then I realized he wasn't the one picking Rockets.

FF must have someone lined up to shoe-bomb the Warriors' plane or something.

You're not a gambler. That's tremendous value for $5. The vegas odds going into the postseason was 15-1

For sure. You would be crazy not to grab that value. Now would be a good time to hedge it. Whatever the new line is on the series, bet on the Spurs to win $10.

While it is true I'm not much of a gambler, I do know that making piss-poor bets irrespective of the odds doesn't make one a gambler, it makes them a sucker - which I also am not.
