does anyone here hate "spread" bets as much as I?

Miami Heat -2 1/2

Denver Nuggets +2 1/2

I am going for Nuggets but a 3 point difference is suspect. They'd have to win something like 103-100, correct? If they got more points than that I'd still lose? Right?

I seem to lose most of my spread bets that have a + on them. It's just too close a number and not enough leeway. I had won a few of the - spread bets as it's more leeway oriented. I think -1 is just sweet. -15 is worry some. Who feels the same way?

heat would have to win 103-100 to cover...... denver could lose 100-102 and cover

if u think getting points is not worth it consider betting the ml

I've moved over to ML's. Its much more fun to root for the winner of the game, than for someone to cover a spread.
