BET on any team that has less than 50% of the public on them yet has seen the line move in their favor (17-7 71% since February 1st)

A bit surprising, I have been fading a version of RLM in NCAAB and doing so at a 63% rate all season. Then when I follow RLM in NBA, it hits 71%!

I wonder if this ties in with this system at all, I know last night it was on Orlando, Dallas, and Chicago as well, went 3-0.

in Feb is true but Nov and Dec. then it's not correct, better track record of 2-3 years to show a real winner or not.

I only see two games tonight where the public is betting the dog by more than 50%:

Golden State +9 vs Detroit and Denver +9 vs Utah

But I don't think there's been any line movement in either of those games.

The Pistons spread looks great. You'd think "no way should the streaky pistons be favored by 9 over anyone, especially a Golden State team that puts up a lot of points". Looks like a trap to me.

Looking like Milwaukee -8 tonight. I'm scared of the line movement though. It's 7-9-1 since Feb 1 when the line moves 2.5 points in a team's way. RLM is 4-5-1.

Don't know if anyone is still following this, but there might be a qualifier tonight with the majority of the public on Utah +2 over Atlanta. The line opened at Atlanta -1.

Why did you leave off Memphis?

48%, line opened with them as a 2 point favorite and closed at -2.5

EDIT - no play. Warriors opened -2.5 (-114) then seconds later were put to -3 (-105) on Pinnacle. I'm assuming -3 was the correct line.

Memphis wasn't on there because I don't subscribe to SportsInsights and at the 7:40 update the odds were too close to call (51-49). Typically late betting is on the favorite so I estimated that Minnesota wouldn't close with the majority of the money.
