Sports Gambling Watch List Week Entering April

Here is an edited look at one of the internal crib sheets compiled on a daily basis by the staff of GodsTips.com. It’s a proactive view of what tendencies sharpies should look for in upcoming days.

Update: Knicks injuries and turmoil both on rise. It is possible Quentin Richardson and David Lee are out for the year.

Insight: We do not subscribe to any conspiracy theories about teams tanking it. As a general rule of thumb, the best value for teams this time of the year is with bad teams.  The quality teams are overvalued, but Knicks are a bad team we look to fade.

Owner Jeff Dolan foolishly extended overwhelmed coach Isaiah Thomas’ contract and coach is using injuries as an excuse for failure rather than a rallying cry for success. Plus they have the injuries that sharp players exploit—that is to key players, but non-superstars, injuries that sneak under the radar: Jamal Crawford, David Lee and Quentin Richardson.

Update: The Detroit Pistons will use the final month to fine tune.

Insight: Piston’s fanatic Brian Gould of CasinoBettingNews.com said that the Pistons offense is out of synch lately because of nagging injuries. “Chauncey Billups is hurting, Rasheed Wallace missed five games and Rip Hamilton is showing signs he needs rest,” said Gould.

With seven of their last 12 games at home, Detroit will be laying some generous numbers, while they work out some kinks and get ready for the playoffs.  There should be some good opportunities to take the points going against the Pistons.

Update: Cleveland went 8-0 when rookie guard Daniel Gibson was hurt, but are 1-3 SU since his return.

Insight: This is another example of the importance of chemistry. Coach Mike Brown’s rotation is going haywire trying to find the right combination. Gibson for his part has been a shell of himself shooting just nine percent from the field since his return.

Obviously sharp players will keep a close eye in his progress.  Yet again, it’s not LeBron James that the wise guy focuses on, but a key player whose slumps and contributions will be overlooked.

Update: The four teams battling for the last two playoff spots in the Eastern Conference are a combined 15-33 this month.

Insight: Yet again, like we say, one of the biggest myths in gambling is betting on the team that “needs it more”. Any team that is fighting for a playoff spot in the inferior East clearly has not performed during the year when it counts.  True spoilers meaning teams that are out of the playoff picture but can rain of some other team’s parade will be a bettor’s goldmine when they play Orlando, New York, New Jersey and Indiana.
