I do disagree Mike as from what I read he felt that even with Gordon not playing the fair line would only be 8.5. He also referred to a situation against Memphis and the overall strong play of NO the past few weeks.
However, it certainly wasn't an improvement in one's chances of winning the bet and Gordon was probable at time of release of the Dr. play and when Fez released here I think.
It is typical I'm used to it. Between the games where information changes for reasons like this, his perverted plays and the "dumb momentum" plays (ie the 76ers are 7-0 off a loss and not favoured by 8) it is challenge to figure out what one's final bet should be. Some of the "dumb momentum" plays aren't bad but I lost on Milwaukee tonight because of it. But mostly I'm not surprised he has lost this year and is finding it difficult to win overall.
Unfortunately if Fez keeps filtering this it will be tough to win.
And I hope nobody bet Boston as an opinion at -5 like the Dr. did. Once Rondo went out the line fell to 4 and it even fell 4. A beautiful result...if you took 5 and didin't lay it. But Bob doesn't care if Rondo or Allen play the Celtics have been better without them. And the Raptors don't care about Bargnani. And what do the Rockets care if Kevin Martin is out? I don't know if he's right or wrong on these theories but I know they require investigation and the market cared ebnough to drop the line a point
He's up 470 stars over the last 15 years that is more indicative of how he'll do going forward anyway. I think the 1 year 3 year and 5 year records didn't pass his marketing dept. approval as a basis to advertise his record.
