I’ve been doing it since preseason, which then I figured since the games aren’t important, I was giving the edge to home teams (that I picked, not all of them) and it was working.
And since I was playing warriors a few times, and against lakers a few times, last night I went with warriors and some points because I assumed building a good preseason would help them hit the ground running. (Actually last nights score was identical to their first preseason game against each other)
and as always I’m using pregame and when I see lopsided money I act accordingly, same as any sport. Like bills for example had most of the bets on the spread but titans had way bigger money on their side. (Same goes for last nights match). So I will be looking for stuff like that in the nba.
