Buying points is -EV long term in the NBA, gl.

Buying points shouldn't give u peace of mind unless you are paying less than .07 cents per half-point bought.

Anybody want to bet SBR Points on this game with me? Portland is +180 moneyline, so I'll give them 20 points if they take Portland and they give me 10 points if SA wins... Any takers on the 2 to 1 odds?

Last time they played spurs won by 17, and all of portlands starters were healthy.

Forget buying two points man! In that case just don't be the game. Save it for one you feel better about. Gotta just pick your side and believe in it.

I took Spurs yesterday at -5.5 and still think they'll cover. Spurs are looking like last year's Orlando Juggernaut. Hope Portland gets the rug pulled out from under 'em!

expected value. and I'm cool with -5.5 as i was when it opened. I don't really know why people are questioning this side.
