Jackson's absence will be a big bonus for my Under bet

The line factors in this and the public thinks they know something Vegas doesn't when a star is out and ends up dead wrong.
That said, I am no touching this game and although percentage wise the bets may be one sided, do you really think the public is going to get "buried" on this crap game? I don't think the action will be too large on this one personally.

It is called "The Ewing Theory" and it is absolutly true. Teams missing their "best" player sometimes perform better without them. Google "The Ewing Theory". You will find some good reading on the subject.

Agreed about Ewing Theory btw. Nice point by NC here. Usually, specially in NBA, I remember games where one side is missing a important player. All public rushes on other team. And team with missing player usually covers the spread, lol. Well, one player may be missing but it doesnt mean that they will play 4 person.

GL Everyone!

why don't you start fading the Spurs and tailing the Heat?? the trends suggesting that the Spurs have been covering every spread in sight and the heat have been the worst team ATS all year obviously mean nothing

your right, gambling is that easy right. to bad everyone isn't smart like you. i bet your a millionaire, because your the only one with these trends right?

Late collapse cost me here.

At least I hit Orlando.

1-1.

**Wade Dwayne** · 12-01-10, 10:39 PM

Charlotte couldn't do anything in the 4th. Jacksons absence was definitely a factor in the game.

I was on Orlando and Charlotte tonight.

**tullamore21** · 12-01-10, 11:16 PM

cannot understand the way this game ended.
Charlotte was following point by point.
that was really sick

Oh ok, least Orlando played well, many must have thought the back to back and on the road was going to be the reason they would lose. Good call.

I almost always fade a team in its first game back from a long WC trip, and with a star player back in the mix for the first time in a while, I hit it pretty big.
