Default NBA betting tips?

What advice would you guys give for a seasoned college basketball bettor who never bets the NBA? It seems like injuries and rest are two big keys to the NBA from what I've seen.


First card was

OKC (-3)
PHI (+6.5)
CHA (+8.5)
POR (-8.5)

you need to pick your spots. fade teams off long road trips/ take teams on b2b when no one else is taking them/take home dogs on fridays on big spreads/ cap the refs etc

What are you saying Lakerboy? I'm in my first year doing this, and that sounds pretty grim.

just wondered, are injuries as critical as everyone says? Seems like this stuff would be factored in already?
