Professional basketball is flourishing now that the landscape of the NBA is becoming clear.  Patterns are emerging on which teams are of good wagering value.  This goes beyond the wins and losses but in determining the truth compared to the published lines.  Here at A1 Service Plays, we cast the net far and wide to gather the collective wisdom from some of the finest handicapping minds.  The following are just a few of the patterns that are in action right now to help blossom your bankroll.

Clippers and Josh Smith

6-6 with them losing to the Blazers as a road favorite have many scratching their heads.  A massive collection of talent that usually only flounders during the playoffs.  This was supposed to be the year that with the addition of Josh Smith’s “toughness” that the corner would be turned.  However, many have mistaken his attitude as the solution for the Clippers.  He destroys locker rooms with his over demands for the ball.  It is first and foremost about himself in Smith’s mind.  Selfishness disguised as an in your face attitude.  The situation is approaching critical after only twelve games.  Look towards A1 Service Plays as to when you should embrace or fade this team for profit.

East Might Be Stronger Than the West

Golden State is the class of the league at 14-0 but after that the deck seems to finally be stacked in the East’s favor. Stars like Paul George turning into superman to help the Pacers.  Motor city work ethic is turning around the Pistons.  Raptors talent and Jimmy Howard for the Bulls.  We have not even got to the Cavs yet.  Avoid wagering the East during the Holiday week because even the best work ethics suffer near Thanksgiving.  Right afterword, the East will not be second fiddle anymore to the West at the start of December.
