As we close the book on the NBA season with the draft coming Thursday. I am very excited as we head into the football season. Couple that with the NBA returning in mid-October and I cannot wait. This was the first season with this brand new NBA model and overall it went well. As I discussed to start the season, we scrapped our old model and built a fresh one. With well over 1,000 games worth of data we believe we know what it is saying and will be unveiling some tweaks when the NBA returns. In early September, you can look for our NFL model to be back and humming. I will detail again the years of data we have and how it has done since inception.
Obviously, writing of articles has been sporadic this summer once the NBA started to wind down. It was fun to travel the last few months and as you can tell from my Twitter feed, visit various breweries and cities.
In terms of futures to mention, I have made two wagers already for the NFL season. I bet over 8.5 wins for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Yes, I am a biased homer for the Steelers, but they continue to never have losing seasons, which means 9-8 at the worst. I think they will be better than that though. I also have an older wager on the Broncos at 50/1 to win the Super Bowl. Remember when people thought Rodgers was headed there? Yeah, well, at least I have a good number.
Please continue to tweet at me with any odds boosts and I will pop in and write an article from time-to-time until the football season starts. Tonight, I am jumping back into MLB, as I had the Brewers last night and will do the same tonight. The Pirates bullpen had to put in a lot of work last night and it is another call-up starter for the Pirates. I am on Milwaukee. Might as well keep the Milwaukee juju going.
Until the games start, let’s have some fun and build the pile!
Olympics Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
Luka to score 30+ and Slovenia to win +110 (FD)
Luka’s point prop is set to 31.5 and Slovenia is a 20-point favorite. Slovenia is -5000 on the money line.
Did you think we were done with the basketball odds boosts? Have you seen the Slovenia roster? Luka can shoot as much as he wants and he needs to score a ton. I am in.
MLB Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
PHI/LAA/CWS to all win +320 (FD)
This should pay +230. All three are favored and it good spots. This is a pretty sizeable boost compared to others they normally offer with three money line favorites. I am in.
DK has 20% profit boost on all games. I suggest betting the Brewers down and taking them.
Bet with PFT Brewers to win and Pirates to score under 4.5 Runs +160 (Barstool)
This parlay should pay about +100. Look, I am fading the Pirates and get to do so with a boost. All in on the Brewers. I am in.
MLB
MIL -150
I did it last night and I am doing it again.
