        Not going to lie, lost a lot of $ on Miami tonight.. Sorry to anyone who tailed the system today. Hopefully will be back with a winner tomorrow. Thoughts on tonights game: Fire Erik Spoelestra, the dude is a f****** joke as a head coach. I wonder how much better we would be with someone like Phil or Popovich as our head coach.. Going to need a miracle to come back, and to be honest I don't see Boston's big 3 losing what could be there last game together in Boston.

            Only one play tonight, sorry don't have time to post stats, busy with starting classes this summer and working. System projects OKC to win by 4, so I will roll with the most confident play..

                        *Note Accuscore projects boston as the play tonight. I am basing the play off the past historical games, as well as my initial thought. Too much of the public on boston +8, hopefully vegas doesn't get this line wrong again..

                            System projects the game to go under, however it is a low confidence play. Past historical games also give the advantage to the under.. Decided to make the under a play as well tonight

                            Hope the info helped

                              We use a variety of mathematical
                              methods to project games. The projected score listed on the left is an output of
                              our Similar Games model, which is described below.

                              In making our ATS and
                              Over/Under picks, we consider this projected score plus a variety of other
                              models, stats, and analysis. As a result, our ATS and Over/Under picks may not
                              always "agree" with what the projected score implies.

                              Our Similar Games model analyzes 11,535
                              matchups since 2003 and identifies the 75 historical games most similar to this
                              one. These similar historical games feature:
                              • Home teams with stats similar to Miami
                              • Away teams with stats similar to Boston
                              • Similar betting lines and other game details

                              The model uses the
                              results of these historical games to make objective predictions for this
                              matchup.

                              Objective algorithmic models have many
                              advantages, but there are some scenarios that are often difficult to model
                              accurately. These include:
                              • Very early season games
                              • Recent injuries to key players
                              • Highly uncommon betting lines
                              • Motivational differences (e.g. "clinched" teams)

                              If one or more of
                              these situations applies to a game, you may improve the model's predictive
                              success by making reasonable subjective adjustments. less

                                Teaser o173 and mia -2.5 what do you think? My bet is already in, but lacking a little confidence in the O/u part. Should be pretty safe (-115 odds).

                                          Heat will lose the championship I can almost guarantee that. Durant, westbrook and ibaka match up well. It wont be the big 3 that make the difference it will be guys like Harden on the thunder that beat Mia. There is no way Mia will get as many 3s vs the thunder as they did in game 7 vs Boston.

                                          Also I want to fade lebron on his 31pts prop because Durant's Defense is better then most other people he has faced so far.

                                              *According to sportsinsights, about 67% of the public is on Miami ML. With the system pretty much depicting a toss up on the spread, I will place a very small amount on the Thunder tonight, as I can't see them losing game 1 in a crazy OKC environment.

                                              Play: Thunder ML **

                                                    Yeah I know what you mean.. surprisingly though I haven't lost yet this post season when fading the heat. Hope I'm wrong tonight though, as I would much rather see the heat win

                                                          Great lookin' system, i jumped on the thunder ML (live in-game) for +108 when they were down by 9. I figured i could get better value if i waited a lil.

                                                          Anyway thanks for the plays ill be following the system for this series

                                                              Pretty much another toss up game on the spread. System projects Oklahoma City -5.5 as a low confidence play, and the past historical match-ups actually favor the team like Miami.. So I will be placing another small play on Thunder ML as this is the most confident play according to the system..

I'll wait till last minute to see if the lines will move towards the heat them put a small play on them. Bol.
