Also, filtering out losers, which will take some time because I have to go back and see what their records were when they played.
So far I have the following for Christmas Day, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Brooklyn ( Boston OT fade but on 12/21/12 - lots of rest) and Under
New York (Laker OT fade on 12/23/12) and Under
Chicago (Houston beatdown fade on 12/22/12) and Over
Denver (Clipper beatdown fade on 12/23/12) and Over
Moth thx for early update.
My thought on OT fade. I like the way it worked with fading MILW vs CLE with Milwaukee on a back to back.
How about we fade any team off an OT game and playing on a back to back? That would cut down on the number of plays and possibility of conflicts with other systems such as 25 pt beatdowns, etc.
I'm thinking of maybe not chasing these, just fade the team in their next game after OT as long as back to back. I'm thinking that rest will offset the OT fade advantage. Or if we do chase, chase this situation only. No chasing of totals or teams with rest after OT game. The problem I see with chasing is let's say both teams in OT game have another game the next day at the same time, you could not chase. I'm thinking just straight bets and maybe hit high percentage. Any thoughts?
Perhaps GO_Nads or someone who can do a query for this year (as last year was f*cked up due to compressed schedule) of this situation. I'm thinking we can win a higher percentage this way, but of course the oddsmaker will probably have OT fatigue factored into the line.
Moth, if you have already backchecked this I would love to know what you have found out. I am just now starting to really think about this and obviously you are way ahead of me or you would not be considering this system!
