No city has ever had its basketball team win an NBA Championship and its hockey team win a Stanley Cup in the same year, but south Florida fanatics can bet at Florida sportsbooks for history to be made.
Betting South Florida to Continue Historic Playoff Runs
The biggest obstacle for the South Florida double championship hopes is the Denver Nuggets, who hold commanding -415 odds at NBA online sportsbooks to win the NBA Finals. A No. 8 seed has never won the NBA Finals, but the Heat have what it takes to take down the juggernaut.
Miami had +750 underdog series odds against the NBA Finals favorite Milwaukee Bucks prior to defeating them in five games. Their improbable NBA Finals run continued, defeating the New York Knicks as a +140 series underdog and the Boston Celtics with +400 odds to win the series.
Miami’s series win against the Bucks and the Celtics are two of the 11 largest NBA Playoffs upsets since 1988. Meanwhile, the Florida Panthers took down the Stanley Cup favorite in each of their three NHL Playoffs series, including the Boston Bruins who set the NHL record with 65 wins this season.
