Handicapping the NBA Finals Betting Line at SBG Global

November 1st, 2023 Live NBA Betting Lines

NBA finals betting line handicapping options can be handicapped each June when the NBA finals begin.There are many different factors to consider in NBA finals betting. Let’s look at some of the most important ones to consider as you handicap the NBA finals betting line.

NBA finals betting line choices will include betting a team to win the series, the normal side and total of the game, halftimes, quarters, money lines and proposition wagers. There are definitely differences between the regular season betting line and the NBA finals betting line. One factor that is looked at in the regular season that is meaningless in the playoffs is travel. Both teams in NBA finals betting are on the same schedule regarding travel so there is no advantage either way. Another major difference between regular handicapping  season and NBA finals betting is that the two teams play each other over and over. That doesn’t happen in the regular season. As you look at the NBA finals betting line you will see the same two teams playing as many as seven times against each other. Your first choice in the NBA finals betting line is the series bet. You can bet on a team to win the best of seven series and not worry about each individual NBA finals betting handicapping line. This single wager keeps you in action all series long.

There is no question that you will see another difference in the NBA finals betting line and that is the home court edge. Teams in the playoffs are given even more of an edge at home and that is reflected in the NBA finals betting line. If you want to bet the home team you will probably be laying an extra point or so. That doesn’t mean it is a bad bet though as the 2008 NBA playoffs have shown. Sometimes home teams continue to cover the spread no matter what the NBA finals betting line.

Keep in mind that you always have to adjust to the NBA finals betting line. Just because something worked in the past like the zig-zag theory does not mean it will work in the future in NBA finals betting. Handicap each NBA finals game separately and your chances of winning will be better.
