Why does Polymarket favor the Spurs more? Turns out the capital markets also understand basketball



Many people don't understand.
The Knicks swept the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals, with unstoppable momentum.
Why do prediction markets still give the championship probability to the Spurs?
The answer is actually very Wall Street.
Capital doesn't like surprises.
Capital prefers certainty.
The Spurs' biggest advantage is stability.
Their offense and defense systems are mature, and their rotation depth is more balanced.
They're the kind of top student who never performs exceptionally on exams but always scores 95.

It's because the market thinks:
