    Is a four-point, two-team tease with Atlanta and Denver.

    I don't have much doubt that these two teams will win, but you're leaving your chin wide-open for a backdoor cover giving up 9 and 7. At 5 and 3, you'd be much more comfortable. Treat it as a single bet and lay the lumber.

    I like the thought on this one, I'm not a fan of teaser's but this makes sense. I like them both with spreads as well but the teaser would offer some good protection

      Yeah, Denver covering 7 is definitely a real stretch IMO. I know lots of people on the board are predicting a blowout with the Nuggets back at home in a must-win situation, but the Jazz don't lay down. I think Utah falls behind in the 1H by as much as 10, but they'll come back and make it interesting... This teaser looks pretty decent though.

        I agree with what you all have said so far. I really think Denver and Atlanta come out strong and win by 10+, but with that being said, its Denver and Atlanta and you may be leaving yourself WIDE open for backdoor covers. I too hate teasers, but I might roll with this one.

            A teaser of Denver and Atlanta sounds like money in the bank. But isn't the teaser usually 5?

              teaser's are usually 4 and you can buy the xtra point to make it 5. If you do a 2 team $100 4pt teaser you would risk $110 but if you buy the point you would get 5 pts for a $100 to risk $130

                If I was going to tease these games, I would make it a 5.5 pt tease for (-120) and ATL -3.5 / DEN -1.5. But I feel pretty confident about playing the spread in both of these games (at DEN-6.5 and ATL-8.5).

                  5Dimes will give you a 5.5 pt tease for basketball for -120.

                        wow thats good, I need to get an online book... I only play with two locals but I think I should start looking into 5Dimes or Greek or both. I just always thought it was so much easier to collect my cash on a week to week basis

                          At bookmaker, you can get a -4 (hawks) and -2 nuggets) teaser for -110.

                            Not a bad idea... I still like the over in Denver the best though.

                              Looking more at the lines for this game, a 1Q ML parlay (ATL & DEN) pays out at even money and seems like a solid option.
