I took a L2B position on Phoenix... I expected Lakers to at least be there challenging and there be a decent swing from 1.5... from what I saw this morning Phoenix drifted to about 1.75 which was way off of my target of 2.5. Strangely the model I used had the exp pre off odds nearly the opposite way around. Was it value? I'm not so sure, the market certainly knew what was gonna happen.

Something like a 34% difference in rated and exp if I remember correctly... & I'm not being critical of the model at all.
Well, the model got the following one correct. :)

Selection Rated Price Back
Toronto Raptors 1.79 3.50
New Yourk Knicks 2.26 1.39

Raptors won. :)

What delay you guys who live in UK have? Betfair stream is now working well recently, around 1/10 games is possible to watch. Bet365 has 15 sec delay

When somebody achieves something 38,390 times, it can't be that difficult. :)

Not this year so much as I have adjusted my sleep pattern and I go to bed at normal hours, Lakers tip off home games at about 3.35am - as you age those hours take their toll. Sunday evening usually has some early games before midnight.

Those delays have got worse on bookie streams over the years and its clearly deliberate. They were nowhere near as long a decade ago.

What an amazing feat for Miami Heat to reach the NBA Finals that starts TONIGHT!

I love this sport and love to trade it when I'm wakey!

Denver Nuggets victorious in NBA Finals, sadly this NBA season has write off for me for trading as moving house and other reasons meant I haven't been wakey for virtually the entire season.

VW looking like a pure beast for a 1st season player, 2 blocks in about 5 seconds tonight in the 4th Q, then a couple of big plays in OT!
Buuuuut for a big man, he has a previous history of injuries, and shit ain't gonna get easier in the big big games when the X is on his back when he's playing as often as NBA play.
......not saying he's the next Wilt/Kareem/Michael/LeBron......but if I played Fantasy NBA I'd definitely have him in the starting lineup.
Watching NBA and seeing those 6'7" dudes look small next to a rookie guy is always a giggle :lol:
