Despite a 22-point loss in Game 1 of the NBA Finals, the betting public in Las Vegas still has plenty of faith in the underdog Cleveland Cavaliers.
Golden State beat the Cavaliers 113-91 Thursday, putting an early stamp on the series and becoming even more significant favorites to win their second title in three years.
The Warriors are 9-point favorites Sunday in Game 2 (8 p.m., ABC) and -700 favorites to win the best-of-seven series against the defending champion Cavaliers. Bettors aren't swayed.
Since Game 1, 94 percent of bets to win the series at William Hill's Nevada sportsbook have been on Cleveland.
