All I know is that my NBA handicapping has improved drastically over the last 3 seasons and this directly correlates to my increased workload. I read everything I can, watch everything I can squeeze in and listen to every single solid NBA podcast (eye on basketball, hang time, NBA lockdown, full court press and the starters). And I study fukcing stats and trends until my eyes pop out. As my knowledge of the individual players and coaches grows, so does my understanding of the actual teams and what they are trying to achieve at any given point in the season, how they are feeling as a group, where the potential problems are, etc, etc, etc.
