    Home Court edge...

    I'm curious, how many points would you people say home court is worth in the NBA?

    In terms of the spread, is homecourt worth 3 points? 4 points?

    Anyone?

    It's much more I think... When favourite about 1,30 - 4,33 play at home, it's equal about 2,00 - 2,00 away... So it could easy be 7,5 or 8 points, but I believe it's quite different match by match... Homecourt advantage is different when 2 teams are situated 100 km far and it's another thing, when for example our Czech basketball team Nymburk play in Novosibirsk (far far in Russia), where distance is about 5500 km. It was played in history, Nymburk was homecourt favourite about 1,15 and in away match they were slight outsiders... But in normal circumstances I think it's about 1,30 homecourt favourite (-7,5 points favourite) = odd 2,00 in away match
