I had the Nets taking the championship down, was confident we would see either Kyrie or Durant taking home the MVP trophy. Now, and of course I’ll probably be wrong again lol, but I definitely see the Warriors taking it down now..so I think we could easily see either Curry or Thompson.

Why not take Curry and Thompson as your Finals MVP?

You have KT @51 while you can also get Curry at 5.00, either player wins the award, you'll be profitable.
BTW, as of now, the odds for KT winning the Finals MVP have change to 41.

Klay is good in offensive and defensive but I don't think he will going to be the Finals MVP it's stull Curry even though the defense will focus on Curry there's no way he would not score but for 51 it's not bad to place even a small amount, we are not sure but it is still possible.

Who knows what happens in the Finals.
If in case the Warriors will advance to the finals this year, Klay will always have a shot for the finals MVP. Just like what the OP is basing his prediction, Klay is the only person who consistently score among all the GSW players.
Curry will going to be the focus of the defense, but we all know he can always create his own shot. So, yeah this goes down to Curry and Thompson.
However, the finals is still a long way ahead and the offer is good enough to place a bet on. So, why not?

@OP go place a bet on it and trust your bet. Nobody's sure about anything anyway.

Its worth taking, just think of it that you an amount that you can afford to lose say like $20 or $100, just imagine how much money you get from it if Klay is declared MVP. Its not risky for a small amount. Where do you see that @51 where we can bet BTC?

I'd also like to see if Jordan Poole is also among the option. Its more interesting to see this rookie to have possibility.

Thus far, I believe that Klay Thompson is the most consistent on the big 3 of the Warriors. The defense was obviously focused on Curry and that will make Thompson open because he is always the first option if Curry would passed, as a result, he will generate more points easily.

So I see the odds, and it's 51, IMO, that's very tempting.

The question is, is it worth taking it?

Is this odds is for Finals MVP? That bet is pretty solid but of course very risky. It’s worth it to place a few bucks on it just for fun since Klay is indeed has the potential to beat Curry as finals MVP if they manage to beat all the powerhouse teams. Imo, just do a multiple bet and manage the bet amount in proportion to it’s odds so that you can manage the risk of your bets.

Bet with a small amount. Klay is reliably there when defense is heavily focused on Curry which is expected. This could boost Klay's significance in the Warrior's wins, but I don't think this is enough for Klay to win the MVP. In the first place it is not yet a guarantee that the Warriors would even reach the finals. There's still a long way to go. And while Klay's game is not that prone to another injury or triggering his old injury his movements will definitely be taking into consideration that he has to be there in the rest of the vital games for the Warriors and so he has to be careful and look after himself.

I understand your logic and if Warriors win then Klay may be better option than Steph. As you know although he had three rings Steph still has no finals MVP. Finals are way different than regular season and play-off games.
I wouldn't bet on it because I don't think Warriors can win the league, I don't even think they can easily go to finals. But if they make it to finals Klay would be my first choice as well. There is also injury risk as other pointed out. I know odds are tempting but you shouldn't put too much on it. You do know it's a long shot.

This is a pretty decent odd on Thompson, so far he is carrying the Warriors in the playoffs against the Nuggets. But still i think if they win the NBA Curry might win the MVP but who knows. Both of the players are currently at the same level,plus in the last game Thompson was the best player at the Warriors team

It looks worth it at first glance but I don't think it'll hit even though Klay is putting up a lot of points for the team it's still tough to have too much confidence in Klay to get the MVP since he could suddenly go cold during the finals. He'd have a solid chance for sure but from my view there are too many factors that could easily put a player above the rest of the team. If i'd plan to bet on him i'll probably go for half a unit and just hope he pops off and hit crucial shots when it matters.

The basis is usually on the impact of the team on their win and that 51 is very attractive.

Still remember this?

Andre Iguodala was 125-1 to win NBA Finals MVP and now is the favorite

And he actually won the Finals MVP because he did a great job on Lebron.

Lets attached up some link to that
https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/warriors/andre-iguodala-addresses-steph-currys-nba-finals-mvp-case

No one had really anticipate nor expect for Igoudala to take that MVP in 2015.So it isnt really that bad
to put up on 51 which is really that tempting i would say.

Let's say Golden State Warriors will reach the Finals, it will be a tough choice on who's to bet there as a Finals MVP as there are lots of guys contributing there. For example, Jordan Poole is playing much the same stats as Klay Thompson right now. There will be lots of happenings in the Finals and more people stepping up.

And just to remind OP, that odds will be changed from time to time that's why you need to act and place your bet now.

As to my own opinion, sorry but I didn't see the Warriors will win the championship.

Not tempting for me friend. I'm not sure I'd even be interested at 200:1 odds. If the Warriors do make the Finals, you have to assume that it's on Stephen Curry's back and he'll be the one getting the MVP. It would take an awful lot from Klay over the entire series for him to squeak out the honors over Steph. Not to mention we're still only in the first round. There's a good chance the Warriors won't even make the Finals (although I think they will). There's also a chance Klay could get injured. You have to remember he is fresh off of an injury and besides not being probably 100% back to his old self, he's got to be thinking he needs to stay healthy in the back of his mind.

I haven't looked at the odds, but I think Giannis has to be the favorite at this point.

Given that the Warriors will win the championship, you have a big chance to win your bet as it will only be between Curry and Thompson who will be chosen as the MVP. With that 51.00 odds is very sweet especially if you will put a decent amount, a $100 for example would already give you a $5,100.

Even in the previous match both Curry and Thompson had a close point count. Curry have taken 33 points and Thompson have taken 32 points. Both were the most valuable players of the team and this confirms there is increased chance of winning the bet. For such a close competence having odds @51 is really big. Atleast for this reason tomorrow's match needs to be watched.

Just follow what you believed will happen. No suggestions, analysis, or advice can really help you decide even with the help of an NBA professional analyst.

You will only know the worth of your risks if it will happen.

We are just about to see the second round of the playoffs. Lots of things can still happen. We don't even know if the Golden State Warriors can reach the Finals even if they are about to dominate the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs.

I agree, just do what you think is going to happen. A lot of contenders out there and with probably higher odds. But before doing it, look for some stats and have your basis.
So that this would have a basis and you're not going to regret if you cast your bet for him as the finals mvp for this season.

Nope there's chance for Klay to became the Finals MVP since for sure the team who will face them on finals will focus their defense on him so provably this one will open up some doors to his other teammates to provide more quality numbers and snatch that title.

As @Japinat says remember Iguodala became a finals MVP on their line up so I guess this has a chance to happen also since many team will adjust and make the life of Curry hard on finals so I guess as klay star he will be the next option in offensive as well on defensive ends.

I'd toss in $10 bucks, and if it hits it's still $510. Thompson is a good all-rounder for a basketball player. He's got good defense, can score on the paint, and can even create a play for his teammates. The thing is, everyone is always focused on Curry that they are losing a lot on their team that can also do as much as Curry can, if proper support is also given to them.

Also, even with the Warriors having the big 3, you still have the Celtics, Suns, and Heat that can still contend the championship. Lots of possible obstacles before we can even crown the MVP to Thompson.

51 is really tempting and Klay is a superstar and there's really a chance that he can be a finals MVP but just like what wheelz said a small bet for fun wouldn't hurt and in case you win I think you can win a good amount maybe $50 or $20 wouldn't hurt so bad.

true, much better to bet what amount you can afford to lose because even we all knows that he is a superstar there still a chance that somebody will overtake to take the crown. And yes i have doubts on jordan poole because every game he drops a high score and his performance is getting better as well, where in, it's like he is the stephen curry version 2 Cheesy

. That's why for me it's too hard to tell who will become MVP.

That's actually a good question, what's the criteria for to become Finals MVP? Was it how much they have made for the team in terms of points, blocks, etc. or through voting? Klay could be the finals MVP, Stephen Curry or anyone as long as they reach the finals. I think we're too far from the finals that's why the odds is 51.

I'm not really sure how it works in basketball but aren't these things voted upon by their peers, journos and some people within the organization with some pull? I don't think it's all about the numbers they produce in the matches or the stats. It's all about optics. Is the Klay Thompson guy written by the journos as some sort of 'hero'? Does he look like he's the center of attention when he plays?

And remember, the books are sharp. They have a lot more access to a lot more info than any of us. It's a fun bet but don't expect too much. Drop 10 bucks and hope for the best.
