Vegas Bas­ket­ball Odds Bet­tor Beware of Changes
Bas­ket­ball around the world has never been as pop­u­lar as it is today. Bas­ket­ball is no longer con­sid­ered a national sport endemic to Amer­ica. The United States founded the game and had suc­cess in the sport early on. On a pro­fes­sional level, the United States was forced to enter an all star team of pro­fes­sional play­ers from the NBA to com­pete in the Olympics of 1992 because our col­le­giate stars were no longer strong enough to com­pete with the pro­fes­sion­als from other coun­tries. Our Col­lege All Star squad took it on the chin in the World Games in the late 80’s, and the United States was smart­ing after suf­fer­ing their first inter­na­tional set­backs in the game they invented. A loss in the 1988 Olympic Games where the United States could muster no higher than a third place fin­ish was too much for them to bear. On the inter­na­tional level, you would have to go all the way back to the finals of the 1972 Sum­mer Olympic Games when the inter­na­tional ref­er­ees gave the Rus­sians three chances to win the game in the final two sec­onds before they were able to wrest the vic­tory from the Amer­i­cans. This was the first loss for the Amer­i­cans in Olympic bas­ket­ball prior to the defeat in 1988.
In 1992, the “Dream Team” was formed, and NBA stars Magic John­son, Larry Bird, Patrick Ewing, Charles Barkley, Michael Jor­dan, Chris Mullin, Reg­gie Miller and Clyde Drexler awed the world with their dis­play of mas­tery of the sport of bas­ket­ball. The Vegas bas­ket­ball odds had the United States 30–40 point favorites and they dis­ap­pointed no one, espe­cially the Vegas bas­ket­ball odds bet­tors. The Vegas bas­ket­ball odds appear as the morn­ing line in every morn­ing news­pa­per in the world. After the team con­ducted its early morn­ing work­out on game day, there were often changes in the Vegas bas­ket­ball odds because of injuries and/or sick­ness to play­ers, or the pre­pon­der­ance of bets on one team over their oppo­nent. It is nec­es­sary for the smart sports bet­ting investor to reflect on the rea­sons for the changes in the Vegas bas­ket­ball odds before plac­ing any bets on these games. A lead­ing source for Vegas bas­ket­ball odds is Lines­Maker Sportsbook.
