The Indiana Pacers are 60-1 to win the NBA title, which is not the worst wager in the history of wagers. Tonight, they have a measuring stick game against the Philadelphia 76ers in Indianapolis on TNT.
Beat Writer J. Michael of the Indianapolis Star weighed in with his thoughts on tonight’s game and the key matchups, picking Bojan Bogdanovic to go over 15.5 points as the best bet of the night.
As for Victor Oladipo at 250-1 to win the NBA’s Most Valuable Player award? Uhh … no.
The Pacers are too balanced of a team, and they can win while having one of five or six different players be the leading scorer on any given night.
HOW MANY TRADES WILL BE MADE AT THE NBA DEADLINE? O/U is 9 1/2
Go ahead and give a listen, and we will learn later tonight whether L. Michael’s forecasts were on the money.
