do they not realize it's playoff time??

how do these underdogs keep getting 6-10 points?? betting right now during NBA playoffs is some of the easiest gambling I have ever seen. You can pretty much take any 6+ point underdog and likely win your bet

This comment implies that this is your first year of gambling seriously. Look at ATS results from past seasons and see why the lines are the way they are.

6+ point underdogs are something ridiculous like 9-1 in the playoffs

This.

In years past, you could win 60% ATS by pounding all home favorites first round of the playoffs. I guess parity is finally here.
