Damm this is gonna go over for sure. Sucks to all like me who picked under. I should of known to pick over as over and under in the game is 199 and normally Lakers score more in the first half then the second.
I picked under first half 95.5.
Hopefully I will win it back in the second half...

If your asking me I normally only play full games as in spread or over or under if I really like the game. If I don't really like the game then I choose to look at the 1H or 2H. Normally high scoring teams with a total of over points way over 200 then bet the over in the first half. Those teams are normally expected to go buck crazy with points.
Not sure if I'm making any sense but I've been doing pretty good so far with my strategy.
Lets hope this slop play keeps up.
Anyways good luck to all!

I used to bet full games a lot, and its tough to have a significantly positive record, because vig will kill you as its tough to be that good in the NBA when compared to say NFL or NCCAF...
That said, I found myself losing a lot on late game FTs, which absolutely drove me nuts (which is why I'm not a huge fan of 2H). With the 1H at least, there is generally a lot less defense and the play isn't as hard, cause the teams know there is another half to catch up. Plus, teams have to find their shots, and kind of play lazy. Thus, there isn't stupid fouls really, or attempts to catch up quick w/ a ton of timeouts and 3's. You basically just have to consider running teams vs. slow playing teams, previous games, whether they won or lost, days rest and you can get a good idea when using it in conjunction w/ all the game stats I track. And its quick, which I like, and I know whether I won or lost by the half.
