Keep the following in mind as you follow the NBA and the straight win-loss comparison with Las Vegas picks.
We have not balanced our VMI formula yet for basketball. Our new website for baseball--(BaseballTout) is being published approximately May 1, 2020. However, it is the product of many years of research and several years of trying to balance traditional stastical data with VMI philosophies.
For Basketball, that is the NBA--we have not collected enough information to attempt a balance yet. Furthermore, basketball is extremely different than baseball, so the VMI has a lesser effect on the win and loss of the games than in baseball.
While we are happy that our power index is performing quite well, we will not be comfortable with selling our picks for a couple more years. There is no "BasketballTout" in the works at this time.
It is my opinion that the VMI and the Power Index for Basketball will be more valid for college basketball and the end of year tournaments than in the NBA.
