Basketball Betting
Basketball is the third
biggest sport in the United States, and the College
Basketball Championship Tournament played every March is one
of the biggest events in the sports betting year. Basketball
betting is offered as point spread, money line and totals
markets.
In the NBA, the game must last for 43 or more minutes to be
considered "action". College basketball games must last for
35 or more minutes to be considered "action". Overtime
counts in the settlement of all basketball bets unless
otherwise stated.

Detroit Pistons |
+3.0 |
-110 |
|
LA Lakers |
-3.0 |
-110 |
In the example, the spread is
set at three points. The +3.0 after the Detroit Pistons
means that the Pistons are the underdog in this game; the
Pistons must either win, or not lose by more than three
points, for a bet on the Pistons to win.
The �3.0 after the LA Lakers means that the Lakers are the
favourites; the Lakers must win by more than three points
for a bet on the Lakers to win.
If the Lakers win by exactly three points, then the bet is
said to have fallen on the spread and is deemed a push. All
bets are voided and the stakes returned in this instance.
The second number, -110, after each team, is the price of a
winning bet. A winning bettor will win $100 for every $110
bet.
NBA
League Rules
NBA teams play divisional
opponents four times each (two home games and two road
games), conference opponents outside the division three or
four times each and opponents outside the conference twice
each (one home game and one road game).
At the end of the regular season, sixteen
teams will qualify for the NBA Playoffs. The three division
champions in each conference automatically will earn the
conference's top three playoff seeds. The remaining five
playoff spots go to the teams with the next best records,
regardless of divisional alignment. Home-court advantage
throughout the NBA playoffs will be based solely on regular
season record, not playoff seeding. All rounds of the NBA
Playoffs will be best-of-7 games.
