Exactly. Big line movement in your favor these days = burial almost every single time.

I just took South Florida +18.5.

Kind of like the NFL under.

Nothing really NBA-wise.

Another great example of line movement was cinci bear cats -3 went all the way to -1 despite every one and their brother pounding cinci yet the game was never in doubt.

Yep -- and unfortunately, again, I got the +3.

Of course, so did Brandon Lang.

Hornets game last night was a prime example why I don't miss NBA betting

Teams go on runs... fast... look at the Pelicans, Knicks, Spurs.. all up big and couldn't hold the lead. So make adjustments, take teams getting a ton of points that are down at half. The play tonight is OVER 204.5 in the Warriors\Clippers game, that line should be 210

**No coincidences** · 11-01-13, 10:10 AM

MIN -135 (4.05U to win 3)

I'd prefer a +2 or +3 here and this seems to be a pretty trendy pick on the board, but I'll roll with it.

Also looking at Kings, Nets, Blazers and maybe Jazz.

**No coincidences** · 11-01-13, 06:01 PM

MIL +2.5 (2.2U to win 2)
ORL +4.5 (1.1U to win 1)

Wiped the dust off my old sportsbook.ag account. First bet I've made there in almost two years.

Convenient. Best of luck this season.

**BigDofBA** · 11-01-13, 07:20 PM

Really like the Wolves pick.

OKC is going to struggle to cover without Westbrook.

Where is the offense going to come from? Durant can score 40 and the Thunder still might struggle to break 90.

**No coincidences** · 11-01-13, 08:31 PM

Utah +3.5 (1.1U to win 1)

**No coincidences** · 11-01-13, 10:05 PM

Feel bad for anyone on the Brooklyn-Miami under.

Like 18 points (and counting) in the last 55 seconds.

nice call..ha

**italianbandit** · 11-04-13, 09:56 PM

Nice start dude.

**BigDofBA** · 11-04-13, 10:31 PM

Had Memphis -9.5 2nd half. They were trailing the entire half and miraculously cover by .5 in the final minute.

Boston was down 5 points and fouled for no reason with 5 seconds left. Memphis hits both free throws. Then Boston dribbles the clock out without even trying a shot.

It's so amazing how these teams will foul in the final seconds on "purpose", then proceed to dribble the clock out and not even attempt a shot. It's also amazing how this affected the spread by .5.

I'm happy I won, although it was a very small play, but I know this will come back and get my thoughout the year.

This exact same scenario happened to someone else yesterday.

**Uncle Drew** · 11-04-13, 10:46 PM

Coin, what are your thoughts on this Cleveland team? They're really great at covering a lot of large spreads the past two years but at the same time, they're a disappointment a lot of times. Any thoughts?

OKC/PHO. I watched it happen.

2-0, +2U tonight
11-5, +9.2U thread

And yes, the Cleveland game was an absolute joke.

By in large, you simply can't trust single-possession home faves in basketball.

Good stuff Coin
