CHAMPIONSHIP GAME

ODU vs. Oakland (-1-) 10:00 ET CBC TV
It is the definitive contrast in styles, when the ODU Monarchs meet the Oakland Golden Grizzlies in the Finals of the 2016 Vegas 16 Tourney. The game is scheduled for a 10:00 ET tip, as televised by CBC TV. Each of these teams enters tonight with comfortable victories in their first 2 contests. But how they did it, is oh so very different! The ODU wins were by scores of (75-59) against Tenn-Tech and (64-49) against UCSB. Oakland, conversely, defeated Towson (90-72) and ETSU (104-81).
As coached by 3rd year mentor, Jeff Jones (UVA, American), the Monarchs want to control the tempo and take a significant amount of their shots inside the 3-point arc. They did make an exception last night, when the Monarchs shot 8/27 (30%) from 3 point land. But, for the season, they average only 4 triples per game on under (14) 3 point attempts for only 30%. It is on the defensive end, where ODU makes its mark, allowing just 61 PPG on less than 40% shooting and only 31% from tripleville. Following a ragged 9-9 SU, 3-11 ATS beginning, ODU enters tonight on a run of 15-4 SU, 12-6 ATS, including 9-1 SU in their last 10 games. Since the start of post-season play, the Monarchs have allowed 5/6 opponents to score less than 60 points.
At the other end of the spectrum is an Oakland team coached by 32nd year HC Greg Kampe. His tenure in that regard trails only Boeheim of Syracuse and Coach K of Duke. The “MO” for the Golden Grizz is totally dichotomous to that of ODU. Oakland loves to push the pace, averaging 87 PPG on 46% shooting, while knocking down 40% of their triples, averaging 9 per game. The Grizz seal the deal with 77% foul shooting. Last night, Oakland held a narrow 2 point margin at the half against ETSU, but they erupted for 65 2nd half points. The final stats showed the Grizz making 15/34 3 pointers, converting 19/22 from the stripe, while turning the ball over a miniscule 6 times. Again leading the way was K. Felder with a triple/double of 29 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds. Max Hooper, who entered the game making all of his shots from outside the 3 point arc, scored 28 points in the romp.
Though Oakland appears to be a 94’ go-go team, the Grizz, with Felder orchestrating the offense, are remarkably efficient in the half court. If ODU gets their preferred tempo, they could eke out a narrow win in this matchup. But, Oakland has just a great of chance to win a close game and a far greater probability of a blowout win.

As of today we are 59-1 to the NBA season on both the official as well as unofficial bets, with no end to this mind-boggling winning streak anywhere in sight! That is just simply the magic of my NBA Betting system!
Here are the upcoming system bet(s):
Miami {A} bet - This is a confirmed official bet
Note that all bets labeled with either {B} or {C} are Exterminator system plays. Bet a flat percentage of your bankroll as instructed in the system manual.
Make sure to follow the Exterminator NBA System guidelines below:
- All {A} bets are not part of the Exterminator system. Unless, however, if you have the ability to buy 3 points at -170 odds, then it is strongly advisable to place a small wager on all the {A} bets with buying 3 points, up to 5% of your bankroll. This is an optional betting strategy, which has proven to be a profitable one based on my research. Buying 3 points on {A} bets has won over 65% of the time over the years, so you should bet on {A} bets if you can buy 3 points at -170 odds.
-All {B} and {C} bets are qualified under both the original NBA system as well as the Exterminator system. For the Exterminator system, bet a flat percentage of your bankroll on both {B} and {C} bets. You do not need to buy any points on these bets under the Exterminator system.
- Remember to bet on the point spread (handicap line)
- If your team is a favorite, bet on the money line. If the team is a big favorite resulting in odds that are too unfavorable for you to be comfortable with, then you can either optionally skip the series, or bet on the point spread, but do not continue betting on the series if your team wins the game but the bet does not cover.
Always consider the injury and the best/worst road team filters. Check the injuries to ensure your team's best player isn't out. I will always make my best effort to notify you of game-changing injuries whenever I am aware of them to ensure that you don't make wagers on team that don't pass the injury filter. However, I cannot make guarantees that I will always be able to be on top of every single injury, every game, every day, at all times. Some teams may hold off on releasing relevant injury information until much later in the day. A bet will be unofficial if it does not pass the filters of the system. Ultimately as a bettor, I always strongly encourage that if there's any uncertainty about the status of your team's best player for a game that you always check on final injury updates.
Good luck,
The "Champ" Team
