NBA's "Cavs" Stun The Online Gambling Community

29 Jul 2007

No one saw it coming, not even the Cleveland Cavaliers themselves. Following a magnificent performance by their leader and superstar, Lebron James, the Cleveland Cavaliers have reached the NBA Finals for the first time in their history. The “Cavs” fans are surely delighted, but they’re not the only ones, as there certainly are some online gambling players out there who could be making a small fortune if Lebron James and his friends continue with their winning streak. In fact, if you placed a month ago a bet on the Cavs winning it all, you can end up winning $1400 for every $100 that you’ve risked. Sure, it won’t be easy, but nobody even believed that they would be getting so far.

There’s no doubt that the Cavaliers have made an impressive Playoffs campaign until now, beating on the first two rounds the Washington Wizard and New Jersey Nets, while coming from behind at the Conference Finals and upsetting the Detorit Pistons. Nevertheless, their rivals at the Finals – the San Antonio Spurs - are a totally different story. It will surely be the most difficult series for the Cavs until now, but with the momentum they’ve gathered along the way, it isn’t such a bad idea to place a bet on them at your favorite online gambling site.

Following their success on the previous rounds, the odds obviously are much lower right now, not even close to the 14 to 1 offered at the beginning of the Playoffs. Most online gambling sites will give you 4.5 to 1 odds for the Cavs going all the way, which means that you can still be making a nice profit if you decide to stick with them. The Spurs might be the favorites when it comes to the gambling sites, but don’t count on Lebron James following those predictions.
