Indiana was -9 so that was a push at my book, but yep they all covered. Interesting.

dude, i was just talking to a buddy about how many times does that happen a season? Now thats something we need to get these stat geeks on.

Home field advantage has been huge in the NBA this season more than any I could remember in quite a while. Some of it is the excitement of the crowd and some has to be due to the almost double standard in calls.

I've gotten my ass raped going with road dogs in the last 2 months so you would think I would know better.

This same thing happened earlier this season as I remember someone on another board say take all home teams. That was amazing just like this one...

This was a good day to fade the public. Public was all over Lakers, Nets, Bulls, Spurs and Suns.

Almost every one of those games looked great the other way. Fricken traps all over the board. The books cleaned house today

Only Cleveland and Boston were the public bets that won... glad that I bet on them

They should have cleaned house... The public had been tearing it up all week, I figured it was time for the books. I a usually on the books side so when the public wins I lose. And they have been winning all week, just sucks I have to wait until Sunday to make all the money back that I lost from the public winning all week.

It happens more often then you think.

Couldn't tell you exactly where to find it, but I remember reading something a few weeks ago about home team performance on Sundays in NHL/NBA. Friday/Saturday are usually busy days for both sports, while Monday is often a slow day for both. The Sunday games are often early games as well, so you end up with teams playing a big game Friday or Saturday, then travelling for an early Sunday game, and then likely a flight out of town later that day.

In that scenario, I can see the road team's game not being at it's best.
