Sportsbooks get the odds pretty right most of the time… That’s how they make money, right? Well when I checked the odds for the Charlotte Bobcats verses LA Lakers game, the odds were sitting at +12.5. That means that even if the Bobcats lost by a massive 12 points, they would still win the bet. Obviously, this is a definite sign that it’s the weak thrown to the lions type-of-stuff. I mean, geez, if their wiling to give you 12 points to take the bet, they must be pretty confident, right?
So when I got my email from John (Morrison) , operator of SportsBettingChamp, for the Bobcats to win, I thought he had finally lost his mind. After some contemplation, (about 3 seconds), I decided to proceed with his recommendation. So what happened?… Well, they didn’t lose by 12points, 11 points, 10 points or even 5 points… They won, and won by a convincing and demoralizing (for the Lakers anyways) 13 point lead to finish triumphantly 108-95. I just wish I had bet more, but hey, these things are always easy to judge in hindsight. The win made it the 77th winning pick this season conceding only 1 loss for SportsBettingChamp, and the 504th winning pick in the last 4 years of NBA & MLB seasons including this season, whilst only conceding a ridiculous 15 losses. .
So, back to the game. Check out the action on the right; - Lamar Odom #7 of the Los Angeles Lakers jumps to block the shot of Jason Richardson #23 of the Charlotte Bobcats during the first half of their game at Staples Center on March 26, 2008 in Los Angeles, California. Both teams were up for the face-off and Charlotte won the 1st quarter 27-24. For a team that would win the bet even if losing by 12 points, this was … unusual, but hey, it was only the 1st quarter and the Lakers were probably just warming up…
The 2nd quarter started and Charlotte took it 30-20 hushing the Lakers home crowd reflecting on the half time score of 57-44 to the Bobcats by 13 points. The 3rd got the Lakers back into the game, but only competitively for entertainment purposes as they gallantly only lost another 1 point trailing 24-25, and then putting up a 27-26 4th fight but at that time, I don’t think the Bobcats were really trying too hard after amazingly taking the game 108-95.
Who would have thought, eh? Well, thank goodness I’m on the subscriber list of SportsBettingChamp cause if I wasn’t, I probably would have been just another loser betting on the Lakers to win, and losing.
