I can't believe they give Dallas the same odds to win the title as the Spurs. Frankly, the Suns are rated closer to the Spurs than I'd put them. I guess the odds makers don't give many points for history.

I have a general problme betting on the Suns. I don't need any extra incentive to get emotionally invested.

If there were an over/under for points per game, though, I'd consider it. Even if Nash and Amare got hurt, they'd still probably score 107 a game.

Some of those over/under win lines are hard to believe. Dallas at only 57.5? Utah at only 47.5? And I have to say, I'd be pretty tempted to take the Under on the Warriors.
