    how will the travel time/back to back to backs for the nba affect betting?

    magic away yesterday
    magic home today vs. rockets

    thunder home yesterday
    away today

    lakers home yesterday
    away today not as far a trip as the first 2


    bulls away yesterday
    bulls away today again not as far as a trip


    not saying today.. but over the course of the season i think the amount of quick turn arounds will defintely make the play worses and gonna see alot of tired legs

    BET ACCORDING

    I think you will have a lot of tired players due to the lack of conditioning with no training camp.

    It affects two types of teams. If the team is older, or has a weak 2nd unit, they are going to have trouble this year. That's why I like teams like the Rockets. They don't have an overwhelming team, but they are young and deep.

    look for Kobe to mail it in this year if the lakers get off to a bad start. he is pissed about the Odom trade and now the divorce.

    do the back to backs effect shooting accuracy or lack of playing defense?

    you think in back to backs will you see more overs or unders?

    when players are tired the first thing to go is the legs.

    I don't think you should underestimate players' conditioning. They weren't fighting for more money because they wanted rest.

    However I think you should take into account the ability to work together as a team and the coaching of the players when they are a bit more tired. There's going to be more improvising than usual.

    Yep, probably higher scoring games.

    Another team I'm watching, at least at the start of the season, is the Timberwolves. They might come in under the radar, and cover a few games, with Adelman running the helm now. Very young team with a couple of good signings with Rubio and Barea.
