Question

This is my first year handicapping WNBA and I'm surprised how long it takes for lines to come out. What the heck?

How difficult is it to make a line and post it overnight? It's ridiculous what happened with that early start Wednesday game between the Fever and Dream. The line didn't come out until right before post. I couldn't wait that long and ended up not playing. Lucky for me, too, because I liked the Under and the game went Over.

If books don't care, or are that deficient in knowing this league, than why bother especially since it's such a small part of their handle? They should do the job right if they're going to offer this sport.

Has it always been this way with the WNBA?

Definitely frustrating seems to be the norm here lines take so long I think in part because odd makers are a bit uncertain of the spots in this league. However you can make some $$ if you follow the team trends and stats of when a good spot is to hit a certain team . Under overs are tough to hit Unless you have been on the unders seems most games have gone under the total and dogs have been a good bet as of late. BOL
