Line Movement
Current BOS -16.5 / O/U 216.5 / ML BOS -1800 / MIL +1000
Movement No movement data
Heavy juice kills value on -1800 ML (breakeven 94.7%, need 99.7%+ confidence); spread offers marginal edge but model calibration demands pass on heavy favorites
Model: 44.6% win rate | n=202 — Totals losing consistently; reduce total confidence <65; Bucks 2-10 vs model historically
FULL ANALYSIS
Bucks crippled by Portis OUT + 4 others day-to-day while Tatum/Brown feast on shell defense; 16.5 spread generous but -1800 ML unplayable (94.7% breakeven vs our 89%). Sharp total signal massive at 22.2% divergence (Pinnacle over 48.9% fair). Model fades heavy favorites per calibration.
SHARP MONEY
22.2% total divergence strongest signal (sharp over at 50.7% vs retail 28.6% implied); weak away sharp edges on ML/spread (0.9%/1.4%) align with injury narrative
Recommended Sizing
0.5u
Reduced sizing. Edge exists but sample or signal strength is moderate.
