Preferably online, but even by phone would be OK.

You should be able to get action points at The Greek and Bookmaker. I believe they are both by phone.

Action Points

Action Points are available for football and basketball. Action Points are for the bettor who not only can predict which team will win the game, but by how many points. Your action point wager is capped from 1 point to a maximum of 10 points, and the wager you risk cannot exceed your available balance. On this type of wager, you risk $110 for every $100 wagered.

Example:
Atlanta Hawks 191
Houston Rockets -5

• Suppose you wager $100 a point on the Houston Rockets and ask for a cap of 10 points. Houston must win by at least 5 points, and for every point over the point spread of 5 that they win by, you win $100. You have the chance of winning between $100 and $1,000.
• If Houston wins by 9 points, your net winnings would be $400. On the other hand, if Houston fails to cover the point spread, you risk $110 for every point that they fall short of the 5-point spread. You can also use totals either over or under, or the underdog in the game, getting 5 points.
• Action Points can only be played on a point spread, i.e. a team to win a game.

Not too many books other than the two Mr.Dozer mentioned (TheGreek & Bookmaker)above offers them these days. I do know that WSEX offers them for the NFL, but doesn't for the NBA for some reason.
