Moneyline — who wins, priced as a probability:
The market makes Hawks a marginal favorite in what prices as a near coin flip at 50.5% on the moneyline — 1 points clear of Rockets (49.5%). On Polymarket a price is a probability: a 50.5% price means traders collectively give Hawks about a 50-in-100 chance of winning.
The spread market adds the margin: Hawks -1.5 — Hawks must win by more than 1.5 points to cover, priced at 47.5% — against Rockets +1.5 at 52.5%. The spread is the market's expected margin in disguise: it expects roughly a 1.5-points game.
Scoring expectations are set by the total at 227.5 points: Over is priced at 48.5% and Under at 51.5%, so the market sits balanced — combined scoring is expected to land right around 227.5 points.
