2-3 last night. Rough night was overdue I guess.
"IOW if you're down by 6 with 16 seconds left we don't want you taking 16 minutes to record your LOSS"
This WILL UNDOUBEDTLY EFFECT our bankrolls when completed. I'm keeping an eye out. Hopefully it keads to less fouling and makes the end of games easier to predict. Predicting who will foul down 8 late and who won't foul down 6 late is a big component to B-Ball capping results!
Silver: NBA seeking to speed up end of games By The Sports Xchange / Thursday, January 12, 2017
The NBA is studying ways to accelerate the end of games to hold its audience, specifically the younger generation.
NBA commissioner Adam Silver addressed the issue during a news conference Thursday in London before the Denver Nuggets beat the Indiana Pacers 140-112 at O2 Arena, saying the league has been conducting a review for the past year that will continue after the current season.
One of the focuses is the number of timeouts in the final two minutes of games.
"When the last few minutes of the game take an extraordinary amount of time, sometimes it's incredibly interesting for fans, other times it's not," Silver said. "We are going to take a fresh look at the format, specifically in the last two minutes."
Silver stressed the importance of keeping young fans engaged.
"It's something that I know all of sports are looking at right now, and that is the format of the game and the length of time it takes to play the game," Silver said. "Obviously people, particularly millennials, have increasingly short attention spans, so it's something as a business we need to pay attention to."
Any changes to shorten the length of games would go through the league's competition committee for review and then to the board of owners.
"It's something that we track very closely," Silver said. "In the league office, we (track) every game, we know exactly how much time each possession takes and, again, we can also look at minute-by-minute ratings, so we know at what point fans are potentially tuning out as well."
Silver also touched upon the possibility of more regular-season NBA games being played outside the United States.
"We hope to increase the number of international games that we play," Silver said. "We don't have any specific plans in place yet. It's a function of the quality of the arenas and the amount of interest in those markets."
In addition to the Nuggets-Pacers game in England, the Phoenix Suns are playing two games in Mexico City this week, against the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday and against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday.

| ending | 1/13/17 10:35pm Reduced Basketball 718 Sacramento Kings +6 -105* vs Cleveland Cavaliers I have tighten my filters dramatically the last 2 days so far I am 3/2 with this very tight system. Tonights play does not qualify because the filters could be to tight but it is extremely close so I think it is worth 1Un and will count as a play win or lose GL I have spent over one hour reading some post in this thread I have no idea where you guys come up with all these stats Me I just focus on the #'s right now I am seeing RLM out of control. It is so obvious when 90% of the public is on the fav. and the opening line is -5 and drops to -4 and the money line is dropping big time also. The home team dog getting 3.5 to 5 points are winning the game but it is hard to play that m/l when you know how easy it is to cover and not win the game. I call these games teaser busters the book is killing the m/l and the teaser players with these games IMO!!! |
LA LAKERS +11
CHI BULLS -1.5
552 Nc Wilma -13.5
557 Nebraska +8
566 North Carol -8
577 E. Mich +7
597 BC +12
627 Ole Miss +13.5
97-65 this Season, but a mini-mess of 3-5 the past 2 nights. And with the money management skills of some of my clients some of them are probably one bad day from living in a refrigerator box under a bridge.

Well in their previous visit to Lion Country the Gophers led 71-63 late before giving up 16 straight points. It was another blown lead today as Minny led by 10 most of the game until losing at the wire. I'd say 'OUCH!' but I actually came out OK personally here as when the Line dropped to Pick I took +2 on the buy and laid the Pick for half of that. So I 'Sided' a 'Loser'.
