The formula for the non cover is simple.  As the shots go up, the chances of the opponent keeping the game close increases which is why a spread other than (pk) is damn near impossible for the Lakers to cover.  (But all of this was said above). It's not a surprise when the shots are distributed equally the team blows people out (i.e. Sacramento) but when one player takes almost half the shots, the team loses. (I.E. Houston, Charlotte, Memphis, etc.) Simple basketball mathematics.

Glad to see you cashed in with Phoenix.

Tonight's matchup -
 
LA Lakers @ Denver -6.5 Total 216
 
I didnt even plan on conducting the FADE train tonight because of the fact that people who hopped on when I told them to in the beginning have guaranteed themselves profit for the rest of the regular season.  But its a lot of stupidity out there and guys still thinking the Lakers are worth betting so it looks like its going to start up again. 
 
I'm actually rooting for the Lakers to cover tonight because going 11-2 (85%) ATS in the past 13 just seems impossible.  But then again, nothing is impossible when you have one player going for shots and shooting the team into tight games down the stretch.
 
Let's watch and see which way the team goes tonight because it would be a shame for the FADE  train to have the same amount of wins as Bill Russell (winning 11 championships out of 13 years)

11-3 ATS in the last 14 (78%)
 
Luke Walton, Lamar Odom, and Brian Cook (picking up the team's slack as usual) decided to sabatoge the FADE train tonight and there was a delay.  The quest for tying Bill Russell was denied.

I don't think I appreciate Kobe more than tonight

Had the Nuggets in a few big plays and Kobe came up large shooting 9-30 from the field so Denver won straight-up

Well its hard to get to the FT line when guys are jacking shots from the perimeter and not going to the basket.  Not to mention the team was still in the game.
 
LOL @ you not mentioning a guy going 9-31 from the field and having a game high 5 turnovers as the problem. 
 
When was the last time Michael Jordan stunk it up 3 games in a row when his team needed wins to clinch? Oh thats right, he played so well that his teams clinched back in March.

The FADE train has been an impressive:

9-22-1 ATS since 2/2/07

Not very good, but its been better than Bryant's field goal percentage as of late.

Shooting your team out of games night in and out.

Tonight's matchup -

LA Clippers "@" LA Lakers -2.5 Total 197

With both teams needing a victory to get a playoff spot, which team will be victorious?  The one hit wonders? Or the worst team in the history of Phil Jackson's career?

When did pointing out the fact that the Lakers would start to lose after Phil Jackson said they were going to Bryant earlier in games equate to "hate"?  The only people that hate it are people like you that lost ATS and SU playing on them.

Sorry to break it to you but when Bryant goes for the shots, the team is worse. LOL... And by the looks of your post, it looks like your bank account is in worse shape as well. Cant say I didnt warn you to stop betting on them though.

Thanks.

One team was a win away from the Western conference finals last year and this year cant even make the playoffs.  On the other side, you have a team that even if they go 4-0 in their last 4, will finish with the worst record of any Phil Jackson coached team... Even the 1993-1994 Powerhouse Chicago Bulls team that boasted an star studded lineup of Bill Wennington, Pete Myers, BJ Armstrong, Stacey King, and Bill Cartwright

As predicted, the one hit wonders pull out the win.  The FADE train still rolling along nicely.

LOL... The Lakers havent beaten a team with a winning record in almost 2 months. 

And people are still betting on them.

12-3 ATS since the FADE train took off but it wouldnt be possible without our favorite player shooting the team out of the game again.

Kobe Bryant

This thread should be a sticky in the basketball forum.  It would've MADE and SAVED guys a lot of money.  As evidence proved tonight, guys are STILL betting on the most fraudulent team in all of basketball.

Three more games to fade the Lakers. Season total was set at 41.5 by Vegas. They should lose to the Suns and Queens. And they should beat the Sonics. So they will finish with 41 wins to screw the over season bettors. Then they should miss the playoffs
