"Prohibitive" favorties???

[vj_74]

The Heat are the favourites because they are the more star-studded team with a history of getting help from the refs when needed(2006). Factor in the homecourt advantage which becomes more important in a 2-3-2 format.
I would love to see Dallas pull this off and make everybody eat some crow.Carlisle would have to badly outcoach Spoelstra for that to happen

I wouldn't call them overwhelming favorites. Look at the odds. Looks like Miami is the favorite but not by a whole lot.
