    No offense, but I only do teasers in football through key numbers.

    I consider basketball teasers donkey plays. The difference from lined totals & lines in hoops is too great to play teasers.

    But it is your money, Best of luck. I do think the under is the better side to play on the total. I haven't looked at NBA finals results to see how much variance there has been from the posted line. That would be the first thing I would do before making a teaser bet in the Finals.

    none taken. I'm small time, just do teasers for fun. Don't have the balls to bet anything I can't afford to lose. Appreciate the insight though

    You can get alternate lines on 5dimes but I'm pretty sure you can't parlay them. For example you can get a RL up to 2.5 either way and the total a run below the posted total.

    It's amazing how I can never pick the right side of the total. Ever.

    Thank you for realizing I wasn't trying to bust you. I do understand what it is like to having to only play smaller bets. You are being very wise. So many people over-bet and put money at risk they can't afford to lose.

    I hope you get a winner next game, jjaycuny!
