Did anyone bet Heat to win series after they went up 3-0?

I saw odds of -1000 when heat was up 3-0.. did anyone bet heat series then? Will Adam silver rig it so Boston advances to get better ratings for NBA finals? 

Jason Tatum did....

How would a team that went down 3-0 to a play in team fair better against the Nuggets than the team than put them in that hole in the first place?

@Kebokaos

 Because it’ll be better for TV ratings and Boston is for sure a bigger market than Miami whose fans don’t even show up to games  who would want to watched Denver vs a bunch of G league players?!? 

@spicycurry

 So Boston that is so good is about to be eliminated by a bunch of G league players? ?? ?? 

@Kebokaos

 It’s all part of the plan, Celtics losing as big fave MLS early was the best way for Vegas to make the most money and now everyone hammered Heat to win series, they will rig it the other way 

Wasn't this the plan for the Lakers already??? That did not turn out so well. 

@DeezyAZ81

 Nah they only need one big market city to go to the Finals! They can’t be too greedy or that would be way too obvious 

This series will go 7 games

Take Boston and in game 7 take the heat at plus money and you can't lose.

It's a long shot but not too far fetched.

Nice try. No. The popular claim was that no way Denver would win because Lakers v. Celtics would be a ratings bonanza with a hated rivalry and two huge markets. Since Lakers lost now the conspiracy is that the NBA only wants one big market??? Too silly. 

@DeezyAZ81

 Think bout it, who the Fck wants to watch Denver vs Miami?!?  If Boston makes it, they have WAY MORE FANS AND HATERS!!! So everyone would tune in! If you’re not betting, you wouldn’t tune in to the small markets nuggets vs Miami with no drama hahahahaha

I do not believe this for one bit. No one outside of Boston gives a $hit about the Celtics. Masses of people will be watching Denver vs. Miami because of betting, and two stars Jokic v. Butler. Believe what you will. The NBA does not give 2 $hits who is in the Finals. 

@spicycurry

 Hey bozo the heat fans dont show up? 
The heat have 100% attendance for the season 

http://www.espn.com/nba/attendance

ppl just talk out their ass

Since 2010 the heat have sold out every single game including playoff games .. 

@DeezyAZ81

 You’re right… they are ROOTING AGAINST THE CELTICS!! Which means it’ll get them to watch!! Now who the fck are they gonna root against if it’s Denver vs Miami?!  It’s all about the TV ratings!!

Hate to tell you but today's Celtics are no dynasty and do not drive TV ratings. No one but today's modern Warriors really drive NBA tv ratings. 

@spicycurry

 Every player is wearing celtic great bill russells number 6 since he passed away in the offseason.  For a long time I thought that made boston the likely champ.  The start of the series gave me some doubts, which game 4 erased.  I think they still ultimately will win.  This series first few games made no sense.  I'm convinced celtics especially tatum played crappy on purpose.  He did not shoot.  He can create his own shot, yet did not shoot.  I was shocked when the play by play said during game 4 that he just made his 1st 4th quarter fg in game 4, that is terribly unlikely to happen, I bet you could go through every 3 game stretch of his career and not find that occurring, yet he did it now, then he magically took over in the fourth in game 4.  If a team is ever going to come back from 3-0, it is this celtic team that is much talented then a heat team missing tyler herro.  Feels like a setup and most don't see it.

@DeezyAZ81

 R U Naive or Stupid? the public will watch the Finals for Jokic v. Butler? LOL. not in the state, bro. esp Heat? no way. people don't care 

Yes the public will definitely watch the 2 time MVP vs. Butler. Check yourself. You sound stupid AF. This isn't the 1980s Celtics. The Mazzulla led Celtics are not some huge draw. Grow up. 

Masses of people will be watching the Finals if its Nuggets vs. Heat. The entire playoffs have had huge ratings. It will not stop in the Finals. Wake up and pay attention. 

Just because you and 5 others want the Celtics to be in, does not mean that the entire country does.  Some of you are truly clueless. The league is changing. 

Hit the nail on the head. People in here talk out of their a$$es constantly. Fanboys cheering their Celtics on, so they make random $hit up to fit their own personal narratives. Yeah, no one will watch the Finals with stars chasing their first rings. A bunch of clowns in here. 

@spicycurry

The people who want to watch Denver vs. Miami are people who want to see the best Finals matchup, between the best teams, because that will result in the most exciting basketball.

People who want to see Boston vs. LA are brain-dead simpletons who think the fact that it's Boston and LA somehow makes it more meaningful or exciting. This is why the NBA rigs shit... because it is so easy to shovel pigfeed down the throats of the mindless masses, and convince them it's lobster.

@Duderonomy

 The lakers vs boston finals wanters are the kids that watch instagram reels and not the actual game 

@royboymiami

 EXACTLY MAN!! And what does Adam Silver want to promote? They want HIGHLIGHTS and DRAMA, they don’t care about actual basketball that’s fun for us hoopers, but the casual fans only want the GLAM!! That’s why I wouldn’t be surprised if the rig is in to get more tv ratings 

People that do not care about actual basketball and focus on GLAM are not watching the NBA Finals, regardless of who is in. They are busy watching Jake Paul's Instagram page or YouTube channel. Seems like you do not understand the NBA's target audience.
