Playing against San Antonio

One little mini-system I've been playing for a few years is to go against the Spurs on the 2nd night of a back-to-back road trip. I like this tonight as they are giving 7 to the Clippers.

Not sure how this back-tests, but it seems like it has worked pretty well over the past few years. The theory is that the Spurs have older aching bodies and coast a bit early in the 2nd game.

Your system worked good job, and to everyone else. You don't make any money on the side lines.

Your system still works well. Basket ball is the most difficult sport to pick. I don't often put money on basket ball and play only when play off coming.

Yeah - there's definitely something to it. The Spurs really looked bad last night - and the Clippers are the perfect energetic young team that you want no part of when you're tired.

Nice job asp

I had the Spurs for the 2nd half and I didnt think they would actually lose outright to the Clippers.

But they did!

Good luck

Goodluck today
