In the United States, Memorial Day has come and gone. This means two major things. One, the summer season has begun. Two the finals are set for the finals of the National Basketball Association. This is what the fans have been waiting for all season long. This is what the players are playing for. The best of seven series between the best team from the Eastern Conference and the best team from the Western Conference. There was a lot of hype going into the 2010-2011 season. There was plenty of hype over the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers. It seems that the past few years have come down to one or both of these teams playing in out. Then there was the making of the super team in Miami. Before the season even began the Miami Heat franchise was holding pep rallies and events to celebrate the acquisition of some superstar players. As the season went on the regular players were all there. The Lakers and the Celtics stayed at or near the top of their respective divisions. The Heat started slowly but ramped it up as the season went on. Other usual suspects played hard and made their case, and a couple of upstart teams like the Chicago Bulls surprised everyone by not only making the playoffs, but by lasting so long.
Now, though, it has all come down to this, the final two teams. The Miami Heat have fulfilled what they consider to be their destiny and will square off against the Dallas Mavericks for the 2010-2011 NBA Championship. This is a rematch of the 2006-2006 NBA Finals. The Miami Heat took that series for their first and only championship. They have not made it past the first round of the playoffs sense then. This year they are back in the finals with what many experts believe may be the most talented team, pound for pound, in the league this year. Online sports gambling sites such as BlueSq and 888Sport are giving the Heat odds of 9/20 that they will be able to knock of the Mavericks and bring the trophy back to South Florida. Other Online gambling sites such as William Hill Online, UniBet, Intertops, and SkyBet have Miami at 1/2 odds.
On the other side of the coin is the Dallas Mavericks. The Mavericks have been one of the better teams in the NBA for several seasons, but have not quite had the extra umpf to make it to the finals. However, the last three seasons have seen the team make steady improvements. Now, they have done what no one selse thought they could do, beat the Lakers and make it to the finals. Not only did they beat the lakers, but they swept them. That was something that had never happened to legendary coach Phil Jacksonville. Online sports gambling sites such as 32RedBet aren’t giving the Mavericks much of a chance against the stacked Heat. They have 22/13 odds. Other online sports gambling sites like William Hill Online, Bwin are giving 17/10 odds. Stay tuned. This could be an exciting finals.
