    Capper, you say top plays for Jan 15 was 3-0, however the Cavs game was a loss, total was 195.  Should be 2-1.  

    What is the magic number, as to when to reverse?  Is it 10?  Cause it always seems at least a 10 point differential between the avg. points and the o/u line.  There never seems to be a difference of 5 or 6 points.  It always is a point or two, or ten or more.  Thanks.

    Guys I like your effort, but instead of researching points for/against....research shot clock charts!

    For example. On average the Nets allow shots within x amount of seconds and shoot within y amount of seconds. The raptors allow shots within x amount of seconds and shoot within y amount of seconds.  If they combine to shoot z percentage what would the score be.
     
    Z = league shooting percentage, normally around 44 or 45%.
     
    Nets X + Raptors y /2 =
    Nets Y + Raptors x /2 =
     
    Play any number that is 5 or more off.

    I think that field goal attempts per game would be similar to how many seconds per shots. I have been kicking around an O/U and or pointspread system but haven't really had a chance to test it. It would be something like this:
     
    shots per game offense team A + shots per game defense team B/2
    Take that number and mutiply it by the adjusted field goal %.(Adjusted field goal% can be found on ESPN website. It takes into account 3 point field goals)
    Take that number and multiply by 2
    Free throw attempts offense team A + free throw attempts defense team B/2 * team A free throw percentage
    Add the two numbers for team A projected score. Do same for B
     
    Example
    Lakers at Cleveland
     
    LAKERS = 84.2+77.6=161.8/2=80.9
                     .46+.52/2=.48
                     80.9*.48=38.8*2=77.6
                     27.4+24.1/2=25.75 *.769=19.8
                     80.9+19.8=100.7
     
    CLEVELAND = 78.2+84.2=162.4/2=81.2
                           .53+.49/2=.51
                           81.2*.51=41.4*2=82.8
                           25+23/2=24*.7542=18.1
                           82.8+18.1=100.9
     
    LAKERS      100.7
    CAVS           100.9
     
    In this example Lakers and under would have been the bet and would have won. Again haven't tested this system at all yet. All stats I got from ESPN.

    Sorry you don't like it chi 23 but I am going to put in a spreadsheet and see how it works. It will make the math much easier. Still might not be worth a damn but I think it is still interesting to give a try.
