No. They've been playing every other day recently.

Also, I don't think there are any b2b2b this season.

Back from my trip, how have your last two days gone? Pretty good from what I remember looking at my phone the other evening.

adding 76ers +3

My numbers had the Raptors and 76ers winning straight-up, them both getting points was just a bonus.

And the Raptors are gonna win straight-up.

My system, day three:

Formula 1's 2 star plays: 11-10 YTD
76ers 2Q +.5
!Nuggets 2Q -1!
Blazers 2Q -1
Blazers 3Q -1

Formula 1's 3 star plays: 2-2-1 YTD
Lakers 1Q -1
Hornets 1Q +1.5
Formula 1 is 13-12-1 YTD

Formula 2's 2 star plays: 19-9 YTD
!Kings 2Q +1!
Blazers 3Q -1
Formula 2's 3 star plays: 0-3 YTD
Blazers 2Q -1
Formula 2's 4 star plays: 2-0 YTD
Hornets 1Q +1.5
Formula 2 is 21-12 YTD

5 star plays (aka formula agreement plays) are those italicized and are 7-2 YTD. These are the only ones I currently bet on.

Note: the two formulas disagreed (for the first time) on Nuggets/Kings 2Q, which is why I put exclamation points around them.

Good stuff maclauer

I am back in action tonight...
All three of the dogs tonight matchup favorably with their opponents, so I think that's where the value is at.

Sixers should win this game outright and they are getting +3.5 at home.

Kings matchup surprisingly well against the Nuggets, who have been a much better team at home.

Hornets matchup well and the Blazers are coming off that big Spurs win Thursday night, I think they will come out rusty and I really like the 1Q bet here as well.

As much as I do like the dogs, I don't usually like betting +4/4.5 points unless I feel really good about the dogs chances of winning outright. So I am rolling with the following
Hornets 1Q +1.5 (0.5 Unit)
Kings +8.5 Sixers +7 Teaser (1.5 Units)
Kings +8.5 Hornets +8.5 Teaser (0.5 Units)
Hornets +8.5 Sixers +7 Teaser (0.75 Units)
Sixers +3 (0.5 Units)

Formula 2 is what I'm most optimistic about; it's similar to Formula 1 but features more variables and is more dependent on home/road splits. With the way I designed the formulas, both formulas agreeing or them disagreeing should strengthen the probability of Formula 2 being correct.

In 1Q of LAL/PHI, F1 3 starred on LAL while F2 leaned PHI. In 2Q of DEN/SAC, F1 2 starred DEN while F2 two starred SAC. I will be watching those results closely.
