    If 80% of the bets are on OKC, and the line is not moving,

    Doesn't that mean that the oddsmakers are calculating that there is only about a 1 in 5 chance that OKC will actually cover the 3-point spread? If that isn't their calculation, how else could they make money???

    I think I am going to lay a couple of $10 bets down on Boston and Indiana, two teams that have 80% of the bets going against them, just for giggles...

    I'm seeing 2.5 at SBR and the greek and another place, and everything else seems to be at 3. At least you were seeing some movement.

    I don't know how reliable that bet information is. What bets are being counted? What if the smaller number of bets are for more money?
