Take a seat and look at it for the next three weeks. After that we'll be able to get more information to work with. The next few weeks are all about gathering the info in order to work the books. too many unknowns out there now. A couple of things to look for though if you are interested in betting it now. Bet home dogs between 1-7 points on the outright as well as the handicap, can turn a good night great.

I like the look of the Heat (-5.5 on Betfair, -6 elsewhere) against the Knicks tonight.

The Knicks are the oldest team in the league and have seven injuries to contend with already. The Heat are the best team in the NBA and started off with a nice win against a tough Boston team the other night. Also, the Knicks haven't played a game yet this season because of their scheduled opener being postponed because of the hurricane, so they won't have had an opportunity to knock the rust off yet.

Some detailed information on the Knicks injuries here:

http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/11/02/sims-knicks-suffering-from-injuries-already/

And a game preview here:

http://espn.go.com/new-york/nba/preview?gameId=400277740

Of course the Hurricane Sandy could well unite the whole team and city and if New York had a full roster I'd be tempted to stay away from this, but given the injury problems New York have I can't see them being able to stick with the Heat for a full game.

Heat -5.5 is available on Betfair at 5/6 or -6 is widely available with the usual bookmakers:

Good luck to anyone who decides to take it :cool:

Good luck with Miami, i think they are too talented to be only 6 point favourites on New york but who knows what way New York will react to the devestation of the super storm.

Well, that didn't go well anyway, especially since I took the Pacers also who lost by 1 point to the Bobcats. I'm going to leave it for a few weeks until I have a better idea of how teams will be shaping up this season.

To be honest, I'm only recently finding my way back into it through sports betting. Used to be a huge fan of NBA and NHL but fell out of touch when I was moving around so much (never got TV sorted).

Just trying to keep on top of NBA and UFC now but it's melting my head
