NBA Online Playoff Betting - Boston vs. Detroit? Not so fast. . .By D.S WilliamsonThe Atlanta Hawks took the Boston Celtics to seven games in the 1st round of the online betting NBA Playoffs. I actually thought that Boston would have an easier time then they did, but everybody thought that, right? I do want to point out that last week I said the Hawks could take the Celtics to seven games. I get a pat on the back for that one! Of course, the fact that the Celtics are playing so badly provides BetUS online sportsbook bettors with a serious question - - will the Boston Celtics win their series versus the Cleveland Cavaliers? Boston is up 1 nothing on Cleveland, but they had to struggle to do it. It wasn't pretty and any confidence that sportsbook wagering enthusiasts had regarding the men in green may have flown right out of the window during this game. It's not that Cleveland almost won it's that they should have won if their best player, arguably the best on the planet, LeBron James, had played his usual outstanding game. King James went 2 for 18 from the floor and scored only 12 points. Yet, and this is a big yet, the Boston Celtics won by only four points. A measly four points! 76 to 72 was the final score. Series Odds -- Spread -- Moneyline -- Over/Under Cleveland N/A +700 N/A Boston N/A -1200 N/A Are you kidding me? This is the team that everybody fears in the NBA? A team that can't beat the Cavaliers by more then four points when LeBron James shoots 11% from the field? That's crazy. If the Celtics are that good, then they should have romped all over the Cavs. Then again, they should have romped all over the Atlanta Hawks as well, right? There are some serious flaws in their game which is why I can't say for sure if the Celtics will win this series against the Cavs. LeBron won't have two bad games in a row. That may spell doom for the Celtics.

In any case it won't matter because one team that is definitely making it to the Eastern Conference finals, and in my estimation to the NBA Championship, are the Detroit Pistons. The Pistons have a tendency to play down to their opponents. Yes, I understand the griping about Chauncey Billups's three-pointer that wasn't a three-pointer at the end of the third quarter. We need to all get over it. I mean, the Magic had an entire fourth quarter to work with and they still lost by seven points to the Pistons. That tells me that the Pistons are better than the Magic. It also tells me that the Pistons can beat the Magic by a much higher margin should they try harder in game three. So, I'm gong to pencil the Detroit Pistons in as the favorites to make it to the NBA Championship from the Eastern Conference. I suggest that NBA betting aficionados jump on this team in the BetUS online sportsbook right now. Their odds to win the NBA Championship will drop dramatically once they win game three in Orlando. Detroit is the only team that can beat either the New Orleans Hornets or the Los Angeles Lakers. That makes them the only Eastern Conference team worth betting on in the BetUS NBA Championship futurebook. That brings me, of course, to the main issue at hand. What will we do as BetUS online wagering fans should the NBA Eastern Conference Championship end up as a battle between the Boston Celtics and the Detroit Pistons? First, let me just say that if Cleveland makes it, then forget it. There is no way that this Pistons' team lets the Cavs drop them from the playoffs. Second, let me just say that no matter what happens in the Cavaliers' series, the Boston Celtics will go into the NBA Eastern Conference Championship, if they're lucky enough to make it, as the favorites. Why? Because all NBA betting trends say that they should be the favorites. That would make this series very, very important to NBA BetUS online gamblers. The betting odds would clearly be in Boston's favor, making the Detroit Pistons an overlay to upset the Celtics in the games in Boston and in the series overall. Since the Detroit Pistons are the best team in the Eastern Conference and I see little chance of the Boston Celtics beating them in a series, a match-up between the Celtics and the Pistons would allow me to shout out the two greatest words in the English language, "Easy money!" The Detroit Pistons will beat the Boston Celtics, should it end up that way, in five games. --- by BetUS at 1800-sports.com on May 08, 2008
