Why the All-Star Game Goes UNDER

reppin_the_847 · 02-19-11, 09:24 PM

Yeah I checked the stats out from the last couple decades of All-Star games, and while it's gone Over maybe 2 out of every 3 games, it does go Under here & there. Anything is possible in the NBA & the total is set extremely high.

Very interesting points made there. Worth a good look at in the am. Good Luck to you..........

vikings · 02-20-11, 01:19 AM

One thing is for sure and that is there will be no defense played at all, not touching the total.

pacocn · 02-20-11, 01:19 AM

it is at 270 now on pinnacle

Gruntworker · 02-20-11, 02:46 AM

Bodog at 270 as well. SBR at 269- so will most likely creep up to 270 soon.

andini · 02-20-11, 02:51 AM

1st half over at 135 looks decent

daimoshokage · 02-20-11, 03:29 AM

Just stay away from it..

The play tomorrow is going to be on the 2011 All-Star Game's UNDER, but only RIGHT before game time.
All the general public that bet the under on the Rookie/Sophomore game tonight because they thought 253 was a huge number will think that 265 is do-able because of the win tonight and will pound the over forcing it up to 268 and above. The smart money was on the over in the R/S game last night, and will be on the under tomorrow for the All-Star game.
If you can get it at 270, the UNDER is going to be the play in this game. Fade the public's betting and clean up with the bookies on this. It's a ton of points, and while the NBA is more of a joke than ever in 2011 (basically there is no difference between the All-Star game and the latest video by Kanye West), it's undeniably a massive amount of points. Defense will not show up, but this is a bet that cashes if they decided to play defense the last 5 minutes of the game or if either of the two teams can't shoot over 55%. Game has gone over the last two years, but I still like betting against the public here.

Good luck.

I just think this is too many points here...like they would have to basically not miss the entire game and play extremely fast. Not too confident on the total, but if I had to...going with you on the UNDER. Nice write-up

BiePoker · 02-20-11, 04:48 AM

I think it will be under.. but starting post is funny

mitmur1998 · 02-20-11, 05:46 AM

good luck everyone. Hope under hits.

TGHMak · 02-20-11, 06:11 AM

I agree with the under as well, the pace this year should make it closer to 260.

there is no smart money in those games! don't fool yourself. smart money stays away from those games. make a funplay or leave it alone.
I booked over 265,5 early for a single unit as fun action

me too

Fed_42420 · 02-20-11, 10:03 AM

I dont understand how you can like the under in a game where no defense is played. Its all about showing off offense and having fun and being fun for fans. Fans like offense, dunks and shooting 3s, they dont like defense. Dont put much on the under if you do take it, Im playing the over for a small bet. Last years total was 280, going over easily. A few years ago they scored 285, gotta take the over if anything

UNDER more over

Bostongambler · 02-20-11, 10:10 AM

gl with this play.

Fed_42420 · 02-20-11, 10:17 AM

The best play for the game would have easily been taking the over 265.5 when it first came out, then waiting til game time and taking Under 271 or more. That would be fun, and you could risk basically nothing to make a alot.

blinky88 · 02-20-11, 10:21 AM

Under all the way

Fed_42420 · 02-20-11, 10:26 AM

Over is 3-0-1 in the last 4 years

nulldah · 02-20-11, 10:30 AM

it's better to take under now, but then this is just fun game, so it should be fun bet too

DIRTYDIRTY · 02-20-11, 10:33 AM

under hits i think coin flip selection

swaindexter · 02-20-11, 11:33 AM

Under for a small wager for the sake of watching da game...GL all

dlew2k · 02-20-11, 11:39 AM

Let's just take the UNDER and watch the 4Q only.. be interesting.

lakerboy · 02-20-11, 11:52 AM

you shouldnt be betting on this game.

Jonah · 02-20-11, 12:27 PM

It's not cool to play defense way more than ever in these games. I don't hate the play, but this has to be considered. Players like Rose and Westbrook will take it to the hole so fast and un-guarded when they get in there.

Snowball · 02-20-11, 01:09 PM

I AM HEAVY ON THE UNDER TONIGHT
here 272 possibly higher
Rivers and Popovich are defensive coaches
yes it's the All Star game, but these coaches will be emphasizing
at least SOME defense.
history favors Under 272 big time

its a toss up..these are hard to call but under looks possible

jacer333 · 02-20-11, 02:58 PM

At 272, I'll take the under as well.

war seminole · 02-20-11, 02:59 PM

I could see it being a close where you are sitting on the edge of your seats in the 4th quarter.

3PtShooter · 02-20-11, 03:06 PM
