NBA Finals Odds: Warriors vs. Celtics Expert Picks and Best Bets

The NBA Finals begin Thursday evening in Golden State. The Warriors come in as favorites with home-court advantage for a potential Game 7.

Golden State Warriors are favorites in the NBA Finals. Boston Celtics are a team that needs to win seven games to advance. Ime Udoka is a first-year head coach.

The books are predicting seven games in this series. I don't like betting on series correct score. You can get better value by betting game-by-game.

Golden State Warriors are favored to win the NBA Finals against Boston Celtics. The series line is set at -150. Boston won the previous series in seven games. The Warriors won't be tired and they are playing at home.

Jayson Tatum is the odds-on favorite to lead the NBA Finals in assists. Draymond Green, Marcus Smart, Steph Curry and Jayson Tumay are the other top assist-per-game leaders.

Thompson is the best shooter in the Finals. He's the longest odds to be the leader in 3-point percentage.

The record for most threes made (25+ in a Finals game) is probably going to be broken within the next 20 years. The Celtics hit 25 three in February of this season in non-overtime game against the 76ers.
