Our football sea legs aren’t even under us yet, but that didn’t stop the boys at the Westgate Sports Book in Las Vegas from dipping their toes into NBA waters.
New York’s newly acquired point guard Derrick Rose thinks the Knicks have a chance to go undefeated, but Jay Kornegay, Ed Salmon, and Jeff Sherman don’t believe the team from The Big Apple cracks the .500 mark. The Golden State Warriors and the four-headed monster lead the pack with their win total installed at 66.5, while the beast in the east known as King James sees his Cleveland Cavaliers set at 56.5 wins.
There’s tons of optimism in the Twin Cities surrounding the young guns of Minnesota, and the Timberwolves win total has opened 41.5, projecting them to have their first winning season since the 2004-2005 campaign. Dwayne Wade went back home to Chicago, but it could be a bumpy trip for him and Jimmy Butler with the Bulls win total set at 38.5 wins.
Below are the rest of the opening NBA win totals and Division Odds from the Westgate Superbook.
