Basketball betting can be divided into two different areas, college and pro.  Anyone who’s ever made a basketball bet might further divide that the basketball betting into men’s and women’s as well, but we won’t do that here.  In fact, we’re only going to take a look at the basketball betting so far this season in the NBA up to the midway point.


Basketball betting experts has all kinds of expectations heading into this season but not many of them included the Miami Heat being the worst team in all of basketball betting.  No sir.  But due to injuries, poor personal decisions and bad luck, even the New York Knicks, the perennial laughing stock basketball betting seems to have a brighter future than the Heat.  Without a doubt the Heat have been the worst of the NBA basketball betting season and they will be lucky to get a basketball bet from anyone for the rest of the year.

As far as the best of the NBA basketball season goes, it’s hard to say one specific team, but there have been three teams that have come out of nowhere and should be considered among the top five to ten in all of basketball betting.  The Lakers, the Blazers and especially the Hornets have been on fire this year.  None of these teams was on the top of any basketball betting analysts lists at the beginning of the basketball betting season, but all three have been receiving plenty of basketball bets and plenty of wins.  Among these teams, when healthy, the Hornets may be the best of the bunch.



In terms of individual play no one in basketball betting has been better than LeBron James.  His numbers are staggering, even for him, and he’s on pace to finish the basketball betting season averaging 30 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists a game.  It would be one of the best stat lines for season of basketball betting in the modern era, rivaled only by Michael Jordan.  Anyone that has made a basketball bet this season would crown him the MVP or they’d be crazy.

In terms of the worst individual play this season in basketball betting, it’s almost impossible to make this distinction, but as far as disappointing, Shaq would have to be included on nay list.  It’s slightly unfair as he’s been injured but 14 points and 7 rebounds is not what basketball betting fans have come to expect from the big man.
