Darn. I was hoping yesterday would be the day you get over 50%. Oh well. 50% isn't the profit line, but it is a nice psychological bump (like cutting a lead to single digits). Maybe today. Either way, a nice run to close the season. You still have a few days to get over the hump, I hope you make it.
Have you kept tweaking your model though the season (particularly in the last month)?

Thanks endermike!
My last tweak was a few weeks ago where I decided to add a metric that would signal a change in the algorithm that is dependent on a team's moving average in several categories.

OK. Here's my annual rant.....
The NBA is the worst of the major sports just by the virtue of the fact that, with so few players and the league's need to create stars, the games are manipulated. The league needs to make major changes in the officiating or it will eventually die. The officials and the league decide who will play well and who will win. Eventually the populace will realize it.

Oh yea, check out the MLB Picks thread. Crushing it there.....so far. At least the games are fair, although the calling of balls and strikes needs to get automated and consistent.

I have used Yahoo stats to update my various tables. As of this morning, I do not see where they have updated their stats to reflect the just completed playoff games. Rather than to try to obtain that data from elsewhere and spend a lot of time directing my tables to a new site, I am just going to call it a year. Not a great one, but I feel that I learned a couple of things that should help next year. In the meantime, the MLB picks are doing awfully well. Hopefully I can get the NBA picks next year to work as well. And YES...... I wish that the NBA wasn't so controlled by the league and officials. Many games have left a bad taste....

With MLB being as successful as it is so far this year, I thought that I would try to use the same methodology in picking games, using the money line, here on the NBA. So the first pick is the Indiana Pacers +120 for today.

I see that there is also a line for tomorrow. The pick for tomorrow would be Oklahoma City +190.

Good start. We're now +120, playing the money line, with the Pacers winning today.

This is seemingly getting monotonous, which would be fine if it were picking winners. Behind the 8 ball a bit, but we'll see if the algorithm can cure that.
Today's pick is the Pacers +250.
