I remember reading about nba games on Christmas Day. I think the teams playing the early games have jet lag and family time and drink a lot. So they drag their feet on the early game.

Can someone pull that back up and refresh is all? I don?t remember who posted it, just remember reading it. I want to say it was Northern Star, but not really sure?!?

I think the early games went under the total. I believe last year every game went under the total.

Please enlighten us if any madjackers remember. Thanks.

You are starting to remember all my stuff. My basic premise is the teams at home are busy celebrating Christmas with their families on Christmas Eve. They come out sluggish. The flip side is the visitor is in a hotel room and will celebrate it on a later date. So when in doubt I would look at the visitor and the under.

On Christmas the last 3 years the games are 3-2, 3-1-1 and 3-2 to the under.

My favorite play is the under in the first game. Especially the first quarter and the first half. I already played both and when possible on totals I sell....sell.....sell for plus money. Took Miami under 110 plus 120.

Good Luck and Merry Christmas

On the course!
I guess with COVID toss it all out the window


I certainly would. The season usually starts at the end of October, not two or three days before Christmas. None of these guys are ready for a break yet. Plus, with Covid in their lives, I would think that most of these guys aren't having their normal family Christmas gatherings.

Since we are eliminating the two main reasons that the angle exists, the angle no longer exists. (Imo)

O/Us are 8-6 so far this year. I would expect similar results today.


Good luck as you play them, fellas!
