We’ve already taken a look at the possible assists and rebounds leaders, so now let’s look at the most popular stat: points. While parity may not be something that goes along with this award quite as much as the others, we’re going to take a brief look at the two favorites and quickly analyze any long shots.
NBA fans just received the best early Christmas present imaginable when we found out there would in fact be an NBA season this year, and fittingly enough, it will begin on Christmas day, as we joyously return to the days of Dirk’s fadeaway and LeBron’s fade…ing hairline. Aging freaks notwithstanding, bettors are excited because Bodog has put up the future’s betting on 2012 NBA Championship prospects. The Heat are the favored team this season, while the defending champion Mavericks are at 17/2. We’re not unaccustomed to such injustices, but we’ll examine Miami and the other favorites’ chances in this preview.

It’s been a long time since I have done a player prop bet article, but I’m returning to it tonight, facing a string of juicy betting lines, especially given the dust settling in after the trade deadline. Many players (Kris Humphries being one here) have benefitted from trades, and Bodog usually tends to stick with season performance and averages without taking recent play into account. So let’s have a look at 15 different lines for tonight’s games.
