Bookie vs. Bettor: 76ers vs. Heat Game 4 2018 NBA Playoffs
The betting public is all over the Philadelphia 76ers this day for their Game 4 meeting against the Heat in Miami. The 76ers are a -3.5 favorite here.
82% of the bets were coming in on Philadelphia on the spread.
Philadelphia crippled Miami Thursday night on their own home court 128-108.
The 76ers should only be a -1 favorite here according to the NBA Betting Power Ratings.
Now let's look at how reactive (or not reactive) the books have been to this action coming in.
There is around a half point move to get more action on the Heat across the board. Only a handful of books have pushed to -4 including Bovada. Most of the sharpest of the books have not.
Miami has won three of the last five head-to-heads with Philadelphia. Expect the Heat to bounce back here at +4.
We are 8-1 in the NBA and hope to expand that record further.
