    nobody else is at +6 1/2 from what i see, and you're not going to find +250 on the sixers right now either

    Probably should be considered a balancing act.

    just said this in another thread. When SBR is giving you an extra point on a line, you need to not get suckered in and bet it.

    The play is the celtics.

    You might be able to take +400 on 76ers ( at the hotdog stand in Sulivan square that is ...)

    You're saying SBR is sharper than the market?

    Have you ever followed when SBR john moves lines? It's a losing proposition. So yes.

    yeah when i posted the money line was +230/-250 just about everywhere

    moneyline really moved, people pounding the celtics money line while the spread stayed at -5 1/2 to -6 (except sia at -6 1/2 which really shouldn't count)

    Dont confuse leans and sharp positions with balancing the book. A shaded line does not always mean the book has an opinion. Sometimes it means the square money is so heavy on one side the book will offer a price that helps balance the action. A good rule of thumb is how a book prices favorites and dogs. If a book like Pinny is baiting you to take the favorite that is usually a lean, they are inviting you to take the favorite because they like the dog. Conversely, If they are baiting you to take the dog it's usually because they want balanced action.
