    how to calculate a basketball money line
    Does anyone know how to calculate a money line in basketball based on win/loss records, come up with a % and then compare this value to a chart to give you a money line

    Sounds an awful lot like ELO style handicapping. You could get one with your method, but I don't think it would be accurate enough to bet.

          Sorry I know that formula, but what I am looking for is the next step. Taking the winning % and then comparing it to a chart of values to come up with a money line.

              If you know the win percentage...
              Money line = (-100) x (Win percentage / Loss percentage) for favorites
              for underdogs it is
              100 x Loss percentage / Win percentage

                I know that formula. What I am looking for is the Money line based on points
