LOL

If it goes up to -2.5 or -3 Chicago pound Cleveland

buffer · Answer

&#xD;&#xA;Yeah if it opens and closes at -2 that&#x27;s an automatic loser but through my experiences the closing number of -2 has been taboo for me over the years. The same with home team -5. And this goes for football also.

yup -2 almost always loses. thank u D ROSE, cant stand that phaggot Lebron

buffer · Answer

Ahhhh! The Bulls -2 at home again. Maybe Vegas knows the public hates that number with favs and purposely drawing action on the Cavs.

Can anyone SDQL this trend?  I can&#x27;t quite get it right -- curious what the record is for -2 home faves for reals

Tiantain · Answer

&#xD;&#xA;I went through my records and found the home Fav -2 to -2.5 went 18-23 this season.

Digitalkarma · Answer

I thought it opened at Cavs -1.5 and the line moved to Bulls -1.5?

Tiantain · Answer

&#xD;&#xA;It did!  Four hours after it opened with Cavs -1.5 went to Bulls -1.5.

I have not picked a side yet, but I am not scared of a number. A number is a number. &#xD;&#xA;Cap the game and you get your answers!

How about home favs -5 and is this based on the opening or closing number?

I&#x27;m in sales and very successful at what I do and certain numbers sell and others dont.

ogBuck · Answer

People that think lines dictate games are ridiculous. Vegas knows that bettors overreact in these situations, which is why they do it. It&#x27;s like the Spurs/Clippers series. Every game was 2 or less if I remember correctly

Liturgy_of_Fade · Answer

Game 7 was Spurs &#x2B;2.5.

emkee · Answer

Closing.-5 home faves are 183-140 SU (142-169-12) since 2007.
