Betfair, the worlds largest betting exchange, has the odds at 6/5 in favor of Boston: sports.betfair.com/ Note: Betfair is JavaScript-based, so I can't provide a direct URL. You have to navigate to the appropriate page. $239,559 has been bet on the match at Betfair, so this is a fairly liquid indicator.(As a Boston native living in LA, I'm really torn on this one!).
The winner will be the TV station that broadcasts the game, as it will earn a lot of money from advertising revenue. The advertisers may or may not win, depending upon how well their products sell. The viewers will lose, specifically an amount of time that could be better spent and can never be recovered.
The players are paid by the season.
