2022 NBA Conference Finals Series Prop Bets

The 2021-22 NBA season is down to the final four. Dallas Mavericks beat Phoenix Suns in a Game 7 over the weekend. Milwaukee Bucks lost to Boston Celtics earlier in the day.  

The Heat and Celtics are playing in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Heat won the last meeting in 2020 in Disney World. Oddsmakers like the Heat to win Game 1 at home. Boston won Game 7 at the home of the Bucks on Sunday. The odds favor the Western Conference finals between the Mavericks and Warriors. They are +180 on Dallas-Golden State to go seven games and +200 on a four-game sweep. It's +550 on the Warriors-Mavericks series. There were no Game Sevens in this year's playoffs. This year’s first round didn't feature a single Game7.

The Eastern Conference Finals series prop bet has Boston at even-money to beat Miami by at least two games in the series. Miami finished as the top seed in East with 53 wins. The Heat were in NBA Finals less than two years ago. Boston is 24-6 since February 1st. Boston swept Brooklyn in first round and dethroned Giannis Antetokounmpo and the defending champions.

Golden State Warriors are the heavy favorite to win the Western Conference Finals. The odds are slightly different in the other conference. Dallas beat a team that won 64 regular-season games in last round. Luka Doncic will play the James Harden role as Dallas' first, second, and third offensive option. Dallas will try to hunt Stephen Curry and exploit his defensive weaknesses. Golden State is better equipped to defend that style. Even if Dallas doesn't pull off the upset, they should try and keep the series within a two-game final margin.
