help with lines

ok i bet on Sacramento Kings - spread -5˝

and they lost by more then 6 points so i'm suppose to win right? it said kings - 5 1/2 so whats wrong?

Detroit Pistons - spread -4˝ - here i had same kind of bet but i see that they won by 4 points.

so 1 of my bets should be right? or am i missing something? i havnt placed a bet on nba for some time... please help thanks in advance.

ahahaha when it says -4.5 it means they have to win by that. So the pistons only won by 4 means you lost you had to win by 5pt or more. Sucks cause the asshole missed 2 free throws at the end to not cover your spread...sorry bro...and the kings what a joke you lost that bet by a landslide
The same lines and rules apply for all sports so im not sure what your talking about...are you joking?
