This game on Friday night fits a PRO system that has an 11% return on investment (ROI) since 2005.
Since 2005, if you had wagered on the roughly 45 NBA games per year that have fit this system, you'd be up about $7,000. That's about $425 per year, good for a solid 57% win rate over a lengthy sample size.
For reference, a success rate of 52.5% is enough to break even.
And of course, an 11% ROI beats a number of other investments in the long run.
This game won't be the most exciting contest in the world; the Pistons have been out of the playoff race since before the New Year. But the Bucks are still fighting for sole possession of the No. 2 seed.
Also, edges on these types of generally uninteresting games are most optimal for you, the reader.
Games with fewer eyeballs give sportsbooks less of an opportunity to fix mis-priced lines — and it also means less of the public's hunting for them. In addition, there are generally fewer sharp bettors targeting contests of low magnitude.
Read on to see what the system is, the theory behind it and how to incorporate it tonight.
