Just thought I would start a thread before I had any hard facts but some general thoughts in my head.
Although the sample size is small some teams are playing much better in certain quarters or halfs and I think following these trends we can make money.
For example off top of my head:
LAL: excellent in 2nd quarter
DAL: excellent in 3rd quarter
BOS: excellent in 1st quarter and much better in 1st half than 2nd half
ORL: excellent in 1st half
UTAH: excellent in 2nd half
ATL: much better in 2nd half than 1st half
SAC: much better in 2nd half than 1st half
CLE: much better in 1st half
I am sure these are others, please add in your thoughts as to which teams play better in what quarter or half.
If you disagree with any of the above please share as well, I do not have stats in front of me to back up what are observations above from watching games very closely since the start of the year.
