Important Factor To Keep In Mind: When Teams Decide To Coast

[Ji.chi]

Even after watching countless games, following every team, studying every point spread, you can still get shafted sometimes by teams or players deciding to cruise their way through the season. Once you're in the top seeds in a conference many players decide to coast through certain games and not give 100%. Making the games anyone's game. I personally think it makes a big deal.

Any thoughts?

last year the heat coasted into the playoffs and tanked a bunch of games. i'm keeping my eye on the bubble teams like trail blazers, mavericks, and celtics. i think celtics might start to cover some spreads.
