Sorry TT. They have the Bulls tomorrow on a back to back so they pulled their stars early.

That was brutal.

I'm relatively new to basketball handicapping. I mostly play horses (profitably), but I am learning rapidly that giving points is a major problem in basketball because teams ease up, you have to deal with garbage time etc...

I can't tell you how many games I've lost in my first month of playing just like this one. I had a mildly profitable month, but if feels like I lost 6-7 games already that were basically over and then the intensity level dropped, the team I bet on won, but they failed to cover by a point or two because they didn't keep the heat up.

This is the kind of thing that for now is outside my range to analyze. It's hard to tell when the better team will pull their best players. I though over the long haul that kind of thing would average out because there's no rule that says the better team's subs can't extend the lead, but whenever this happens to me my team loses the big lead and often fails to cover.

I may have to change my style to only playing when I think the line is off AND I'm getting points.

I had them -6.5 and was getting 1.02 - 1 odds. It was so sick. GS hit every 3 at the end, OKC was missing free throws, just brutal
