How many points is home court worth to the spread?

[IrishTim]

I personally think home court advantage is overrated. It matters, but you still need to make shots.

It's this easy.

CBB=4
NBA=3

 

[krk1030]

In the Ivy league its worth about 25.

in bigger conferences around 5 pts or so, but in the smaller conferences, you can see swings of 10 pts depending on whose home.

I read an article from a lines maker saying it was 6 for the big games.

 

[papicker]

i would say between 3-6 for every game. of course you have to throw in cross country trips and stuff like that, say if ucla was playing at duke home court might be worth 7 maybe.

A swing of 10 points would be a 5 point homecourt value for each. Trust me, there is nowhere that has a homecourt worth more than 6. And that's very rare.

If the two teams are dead even what is home court worth in CBB?

thanks

The title of your thread is how many points is home field worth to the spread...... the answer as a rule of thumb is 4 for setting the line unless one team is a huge public favorite or injuries are involved,etc. and the answer to the above quote is the same.
