How to read a card: the first sentence is the conclusion β€” who the model picks, what the book line says, and where they disagree. The numbers below are the inputs. Paper-trade phase: ratings run on 2025-26 priors + early-season noise. Rest/B2B shown and logged, not priced. Value flags are hypotheses, never bets. Quarter records are season history, not a prediction.

Every locked pick is graded from game one (Record tab); the board is judged as a forward test after ~100 graded plays with CLV tracked.

How to read: "Model says" is who the model thinks wins and by how much. "Gap vs book" is model minus book line. "Lean" is the side the gap points to, with its line. A πŸ“ flag means the gap cleared the 5-point bar.

every game that day β€” consensus of the reporting sources

Day

Sources: 2 src = both books reported; Ξ” = max ticket% disagreement between the sources on the moneyline sides. 1 src = only one book reported β€” consensus equals that book, treated as single-book, not consensus.

Move = biggest intraday handle swing on a moneyline side (earliest β†’ latest snapshot of the day, consensus); ⚑ = 10+ point swing. 🧊 = frozen line: handle swung 10+ pts while the cleatz moneyline price moved ≀2 pts of implied probability over the same window. n snaps = snapshots feeding the move. Numbers refresh every ~30 min through the day.

Splits: consensus: cleatz.com + wiseguyteam.com (DraftKings). Display only β€” not a model input.

How to read: each row is one locked pick, graded after the game. Spread = did the pick cover the book line? Winner = did the picked team win? Totals = over or under the book total? W–L–P = wins, losses, pushes (ties).

Record is real and graded from game one. One honest caveat: early-season games were graded on priors-heavy ratings (paper-trade phase until ~15–20 games/team, early Dec) β€” the inputs were thin, the grades are not. 62 graded Β· 2 voided (excluded) Β· 0 locked, awaiting final. Basis is fixed: locked pick vs locked line, append-only, never moved mid-flight. Best Bets records track the same locked rows β€” top-5 reads per market per slate β€” on the identical basis.

The core question

Not "are we smarter than the line." Instead: "what's in the line, and which part can we see through?"

line = efficiency truth + rest/B2B state + public shade + brand tax + key-number rounding + vig.
The model projects only the parts it can measure honestly (efficiency truth, schedule state) and keeps them separable from the parts it can't (shade, brand tax, vig) β€” so every gap vs the line can be asked which component is this?

Pick-lock rule

Picks lock 30 minutes before tipoff. At that moment the model's spread side, total side, and moneyline side are frozen together with the DraftKings spread, total, and moneyline as they stand then.

Efficiency core

Net rating (offensive βˆ’ defensive rating, pace-adjusted) blended: curr_w = min(1, gp/20) * 0.8 ; prior_w = 1 - curr_w. Prior = 2025-26 final ratings. HFA = 2.0 pts (walk-forward tested 2021-22–2024-25, pooled 1.99). Win chance from a bell curve, width 13.5 (untested).

Every factor beyond the efficiency core is walk-forward tested before wiring. Nothing enters the projection on theory alone. Rest/B2B edge is currently 0.0 β€” displayed, logged daily to the rest log for the future backtest, not priced in.

Honest limits

Team net ratings

Offense/defense = points per 100 possessions. Net rating = offense minus defense. Last-season weight = how much of the rating still comes from last season.
