Milwaukee Bucks vs Miami Heat Betting Odds Game 1

Published on April 21st, 2013 3:16 pm EST
The Miami Heat will begin the defense of their NBA Championship later today when they do battle against the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Miami Heat have looked nearly invincible so far this season, putting together one of the longest winning streaks in NBA history en route to easily finishing as the best team in the Eastern Conference. Nobody is giving the Bucks much of a chance in this series, and the odds reflect that.

Here are the current money line betting odds for Game 1:

Milwaukee Bucks, +1100
Miami Heat, -2000

So, a successful $100 wager on the Bucks would yield you a total profit of $1,100. On the other hand, you would need to wager $2,000 on the Heat in order to win just $100 in profit.

Now, the spread:

Milwaukee Bucks, +13, -110
Miami Heat, -13, -110

So, if you wanted to take the Bucks plus the points, a successful $110 wager would yield a total profit of $100.

The over/under for this game is currently set at 198.5 points:

Under 198.5 Points, -110
Over 198.5 Points, -110

Will the Milwaukee Bucks be able to pull off the surprising upset in Game 1 of this series, or will LeBron and company win as everyone expects?
