Interesting NBA Line from Olympic

[wilheim]

Olympic has a prop for both favorites or underdogs - plus mini-salami for tonight's NBA playoff games.

Wednesday May 12, 2004 7:05 pm
705 Road Teams +1.5 +100
706 Home Teams -1.5 -120 TOTAL 366½ -110

Is it me or does -1.5 -120 seem low for a pair of favs at -4.5 and -6 ???

the prop is not fav vs underdogs, but is road vs home. so the -1.5 is essentially the difference between the two lines.

Pacers road favorite of -4.5 (thus Miami home dog +4.5)
Sac home favorite of -6

=

home teams -1.5

Thanks Lakerfan - I see where the line makes sense. Road fav -4.5 and home fav -6. Diff. 1.5.

wil, people will begin to wonder if you never finish that model airplane...OF

OF - lol, probably right. I just thought maybe the line might be a little low due to home court edge being so pronounced this playoff year. Are you taking any stance with either game tonight
