While public betting during the NBA season can temporarily fluctuate due to all the injuries and load management, the playoffs are a big betting event, Thomas Gable, sports book director at the Borgata in Atlantic City – a BetMGM book – said Yahoo Sports.

“From the betting point of view, the handle is very good,” said Gablle. “The NBA suffers from the way they rest the daily season with the players, and I think many of the leisure players have therefore picked out from the NBA. But the playoffs are a completely different story.”
