saw you posted about MEM, san...
was looking at them as well...-1 +104 for me..
I know it’s all Aussie open talk all the time now but it is remarkable that the Super Bowl
Odds haven’t moved an inch so far.
Fun fact: the last five Super Bowls have featured three games with a 1q shutout. 22 points scored total.
Think most folks remember a lot of 2h scoring in these games.
NY at Charlotte - Under 207.5
Atlanta at Toronto - Over 234.5
Atlanta's score was 152-133 yesterday, and they've had a total of 239+ in 6 of last 7 games.
Charlotte has scored 92 or fewer in 4 of last 6 games, NY has scored 92 or fewer in 3 of last 6 games.
Sabres moneyline -200
Under 1.5 first period +110
Made me feel square to bet based upon recent scores, but these two were begging for it. And somehow most of the money went on the Knicks over anyway.
Atlanta is playing no defense, and the Knicks/Hornets both aren't scoring. Just seemed too obvious.
NY under doing well so far.
Poor 4Bet isn't around today to tail my picks, which he unfortunately did yesterday when we had that massive screwjob.
The Charlotte under is a lock barring 2OT, and the Toronto over is on pace to win after the first half, but not by any means a lock.
But still I'm liking what I'm seeing so far.
It's actually been pretty consistent this year when two low-scoring teams play each other that the under hits. You might want to watch for that. Some sharps were mashing the over on the Knicks today, but I just couldn't see it.
Edit: Wow, 2 mins with no scoring to start the 3rd in Toronto. Ouch. Can't have that on a 234.5 over.
aight san, this is the best I can find...doesnt give a full year, but seems to give near term trends...

I went 2-0 tonight, including that Toronto over, despite the stat in the post above showing that Toronto went under in 1H in past 8 contests.
1H tonight was 124, and the line was 120, so that went over, and that bet would have lost.
Looking at all the games listed above:
MEM 1Q -0.5 W
MIA 1Q -0.5 L
DAL 1Q O56 L
GSW 1Q U55 W
MIL 1Q U61.5 L
ATL 1Q U60 W
CHA 1H -0.5 L
TOR 1H U120 L
PHO 1H U112 L
CLE 1H O118 W
So 4-6 was the record. Just one day, so that means little, but this was far from magic.
Props to San for grabbing one of the 4 winners posted there, and ignoring the others, which went 3-6.
In general I don't like handicapping solely from the standpoint of "such-and-such happened ATS in the last X games", because each game is different, and a lot of these trends are just the result of random distribution.
I think it's more useful to look at the basic trend with the team in general -- such as whether they've been playing defense, a fast paced game, shooting well, etc. Have they been playing well in general lately, or poorly? ATS isn't as important. It's worth looking at, but some place far too high of a value on it.
for super bowl dfs on DK cash, i cant decide on spending high on the chiefs stack with tyreek + kelce, or spreading between mostert+kittle+watkins?
Thoughts?
