i think i found your problem
good interview
before i switched to betting college half totals i bet a ton of nba 1q totals using a much smaller data set but was successful doing so, i can only imagine the insane data bob's database contains
if you want to go into more details feel free. what % of nba 1q lines were deeming beatable by your calculations?
playing only 82 games a year, how do you account for the varibles in teams changing, players ability changing, etc on a year to year basis? and then how do you account for the other million varibles like amount of rest, importance of game, opponent has weak center, strong defensive guards, etc, etc?
when you add varibles like, we are up by 15 going into the fourth, then i think you have a clear pattern to a coaching style - he will play slow, he will give our starters this many minutes, that you can analyze.
when you are looking at the game from the very beginning, i dont get how you can make an educated guess at the total?
and since he said there are 5 guys who make their living this way who are the other 3?
