    Three Pointer Prop

    Two players from opposing teams. The spread on the game is pick.

    Player A: Ave 31.29 min per game and has 56 three pointers on the year in 29 games. In his last game he hit 4 because the side got their ass beat. He also played 33.5 min.

    Player B: Ave 28.69 min per game and has 77 three pointers on the year in 29 games. In his last game he played 30 minutes and hit 3 of them in a game they won handily.

    Player B is on the home team and they are up 1-0 in the best of three play-off series.

    Odds for more 3pters:
    Player A: -117
    Player B: -117

    Plugging those numbers in to poisson using 3 pointers per minute on the court and then adjusting it up to expected minutes and adjusting player A up slightly to account for some extra minutes and error - I still have player B as a decent bet. I know a lot will come down to who will trailing at the end, but this could be very well be either side. How's my method and thinking?

    Hey Subs! Thanks for stopping in and for the tennis tip. Yeah things have been going reasonably well - right up until running at -25% ROI for back to back weekends. :-) Things will turn around though!
