are overs unbettable in nba

[slayer14]

players are struggling since rule changes to score points

[SamsNCharge99]

Seems to be trendy

[jjgold]

Yes

Nfl too

[slayer14]

the pacers and wizards can barely score a 100 points per game that unreal considering last year these teams barely cared about defense and where full out on scoring attack mode.

The entire NBA is a complete joke this year. Totally unstable. I've never seen anything like this before.

Injuries.... covid.... players out 4 hours before game time. It's really a JOKE. Is Silver still running this sh##?

I know, I used to love watching basketball and I'm still a hardcore Celtics fan but I find myself just not interested in the game anymore.

overs are generally unbettable in every sport

[clockwise1965]

No defense and the players are lazy. Overs all day.

Games have been super low scoring so far. Go back and look at the tail end of the bulls run though. I think the over under in Jordan’s last game was 178. We are not there yet. I can’t recall anything being under 200 so far.

What rule change?

[JohnGalt2341]

Betting all Unders so far would be making you a killing. Go down to the very bottom stat in the link, that's for every game so far this NBA season. 59.3% Unders so far after 248 games. 101 Over and 147 Under.

Highly unlikely that it will stay anywhere near that. I'll be surprised if it's not within 52% or better by the end of the season. But so far, Unders are the way to go.

This is Covers of course but I think they are pretty close to the standard Books.

Great post Galt

I don't totally understand what really changed in the NBA from last year to this year... but it's complete trash. You literally have a better chance flipping a coin.... and make your play.

Too many key players sitting out at times.... do coaches have any balls to yell at these guys??? They are all playing like a bunch of monkeys on the blacktop. Nobody can play consistent anything.

Nba officiating controls it all. Watch three games at once, each called different. it’s so crazy

That is every sport and NFL is just as obvious.

Books catch up to the numbers and collect over the course of the season. Remember the book don't eat, sleep, or fuk and doesn't really give a shit what team wins. They know punters will be back to try again, only larger bets if the punter won and usually the same size wager if the punter lost their last deposit.

[lonegambler23]

i think they did it on purpose since they know ppl love overs.

[Pick'nParlays]

Overs happen

Unders are better bets often.

You can't catergorize it as NFL or NBA...Its all subjective

[KiDBaZkiT]

Lol NBA. I’ve watched maybe 5 games this year. Basketball totals have been garbage bets for years. Back when the Warriors were bottom feeders their home games used to be money betting the Over but that was many years ago.
