Handicapping the NBA Injuries

by: Rocketman Sports

Every day I look at the NBA injury report.  I start off with the first team and see who is listed on the report. 

HERE IS MY TABLE FOR CALCULATING INJURIES:

OUT:  Take players average points per game and multiply by 1
DOUBTFUL:  Take players average points per game and multiply by .75
QUESTIONABLE:  Take players average points per game and multiply by .50
PROBABLE:  Take players average points per game and multiply by .25

Here are the results for tonight's NBA matchups. 

Detroit -8.725Toronto -4.2Milwaukee -7.6Atlanta -0Miami -85.7New York -46.4Chicago -0Philadelphia -0New Orleans -4Cleveland -11.75Phoenix -0Boston -3.55Indiana -27.2New Jersey -0Minnesota -11.3Houston -38.4LA Clippers -14.9San Antonio -6.725Memphis -0Sacramento -9.5Washington -22.4Seattle -21.1Charlotte -0LA Lakers -55.25

Hope this helps out some.  This is 20-7 74% the past 27 where we have a differential of 20 or more and the trends add up to leaning to that same team.  It takes a little time to do this every day but it pays off in the end!

Thanks and best of luck,

Rocky Atkinson
