Sick of losing ATS when opponents key players are NOT PLAYING!!!!

Debut games from return players seem to be a dud a lot of the time. Same with going against a team who just lost a key player for whatever reason

Don't forget the best one... Miami covering and winning straight up in atl with no lebron or wade.

Ewing Rule

Ur betting against a long term +ev trend

Sixers and Bucks are both pretty bad so it doesn't matter if 1 player is missing that game. I think the worst example was the Heat losing to the Bulls w/ Rose out tho

This was the worst one of the season

ATL losing in 3OT at home against a team without the 2 best players in the league

Another terrible one was Magic losing in Atlanta with Collins, Horford, Joe Johnson, and Marvin Williams being out. D-12 attempted like 6 total shots w/ Hawks missing their 2 best big men

There has to be something to this trend....I know how to fix it.....If I start betting FOR the team that is missing the player (or against the team when they get a player back) then that will SWING the wins in the other direction......Just like when I start tailing DAD tonight....that 6 game win streak is gonna be over....sorry DAD, u can blame it on me.....

Only major game that I can think of in which key players were absent and the team actually lost was when SAS sat starts against Portland....but that didn't help me much..............because I was the "last-1-2-know"....conveniently found out shortly after tip....
