They probably won't be favored in the series, but I am personally guaranteeing they will beat the Lakers. They are too solid, too deep, and extremely talented. This is one of the most talented basketball teams ever. Think about it: KG, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen - all Hall of Famers. NO brainer, give me the Celt's in the Finals baby.

I'm looking at these Series prices for the Jazz and the Hawks, and I see extreme value. Now, the 2nd questions is 'is there a chance they could actually win the series?'
I personally think the Jazz have a decent shot at this, because they've played the damn Lakers the last 3 or 4 years in the playoffs, and they've never had this good of a team that's clicking right now. They somewhat blew the game at the end in Game 1, but I see the argument that they played inconsistently to truly deserve the W. I could be wrong, but I think at +550 they really have a decent chance at winning this.
I also see the the argument that the Hawks barely beat the Bucks, but the Bucks gave them matchup problems in my opinion. I think the Hawks match up real well against the Magic, and they certainly have a chance at winning the series.
All thoughts and comments welcome. Let's brainstorm and get make some money.
