National Basketball Association Teams

NBA teams play 82 games during the regular season, 41 each home and away. All NBA teams must play each opponent at least twice during the regular season and four times if they are in the same division. The NBA is available for bettors for nine months giving to sports fans multiple chances to wager on basketball.

The peak of the NBA season is around May and June when the playoffs and the NBA finals are around. This is mostly when sportsbooks will get more of the betting action. Before placing the first NBA bet, it’s better to have a full understanding of how the league works. How many NBA teams there are; how the schedule is played and who are the best and worst franchises to follow.

NBA Teams

All NBA teams make an equal share of money on the NBA Billion TV deal. A team can’t have more success just because their franchise is bigger or more popular than the other. There is a salary cap rule that prevents richer teams from getting richer. Instead, all teams have to use the number in the salary cap to equip their team to the best way possible. The Golden State Warriors are the gold standard team in the NBA over the last five seasons. They have won three of the previous four titles. They only lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers during the 2016 season, in a final that needed seven games to decide a winner.

The NBA has a draft system that will give the worst teams an opportunity to have the best player coming out of the University system or NCAA. It’s not an automatic system; meaning the worst team won’t get the first pick in the draft by default. Instead, the league takes the 14 NBA teams that did not make the playoffs and assigns them a number of combinations. Then the number one pick is decided on a lottery. A good number one pick choice could turn around a losing franchise. The NBA Free Agency is another option to get the top players. It’s the period where teams break the bank trying to add the most skilled player to the franchise.

The NBA All-Star game is a mix of the league’s best players facing each other during February. It’s considered an exhibition game because fans vote for their favorite players to be in. It’s also the main event of a three-day weekend put together to entertain the fans. Most sportsbooks will offer betting lines for the NBA All-start game as well as the three-point contest, the dunk contest, and others.

16 out of the 30 NBA teams qualify for the NBA playoffs. Each conference will have eight teams playing to advance in a best-of-seven elimination. The teams are ranked from one to eight based on the win-loss records during the regular season. The tie-break criteria for playoff seeding is the head-to-head results in the season. If they split the regular season series, the second tie-breaker is whether a team won its division championship. The playoffs series are played in a 2–2–1–1–1 format. The winner from each conference will advance to the NBA Finals where it will be determined the league’s champion.

NBA Basketball Conferences

The NBA is divided into two conferences (west and east). The Western and Easter conferences are subdivided into 3 divisions of 5 teams each for a total of 30 teams in total fighting for their spot in the NBA finals each season. The NBA Western Conference has been the better of the two Conferences over the past 20 years.

It usually has the best teams and the better players. It is far more noticeable by the quality of their games in the NBA playoffs. The Golden State Warriors have won the last four straight conference titles. The West has won four of the previous five NBA Championships and 14 of the last 19 NBA titles. The Warriors are the team to beat. They have two of the three best players in the NBA in point guard Steph Curry and forward Kevin Durant. Between the two players have combined to win three Most-Valuable-Player Awards.

The Houston Rockets have the most recent MVP winner in James Harden. He’s the most unstoppable offensive force in the league at the moment. The Los Angeles Lakers added LeBron James in the summer to try to rebuild a new winning project. Both the Rockets and the Lakers are the two teams called to give the Warriors are run for the title in the West during the next few years. Los Angeles is a work in progress team, but with LeBron James in the roster, they will be in the conversation sooner or later. The Dallas Mavericks have the most exciting rookie in the NBA. The Slovenian Luka Doncic has taken the NBA by storm with his abilities and intelligence.

 It took the Warriors 40 years (from 1975 to 2015) to see their franchise win their fourth NBA title. They have won two more championships since and they are the team to beat in the league. Golden State also owns the record for the most wins in the regular season with 73 during the 2015-16 season. Sadly for the Warriors, they lost the NBA Finals to the Cleveland Cavaliers in an upset for the ages.

They’re one of the few franchises who won the NBA title on back-to-back seasons in 1994 and 1995. Those two victories were at the same time Chicago Bulls’ Michael Jordan was out of the league playing baseball. They haven’t reached the NBA finals since, but James Harden has enough talent to believe they might be back there soon.

The Lakers are the most winning franchise in the Western Conference and second in the NBA. LA’s rich story is hard to summarize in a couple of sentences. The Lakers are the most famous franchise in the league. And even though they haven’t won an NBA title since 2014, they are aiming for it with the addition of LeBron James.

In the 21st century, no one has dominated the NBA like the San Antonio Spurs. Coach Gregg Popovich won its first NBA title with the franchise in 1999 and did it four more times; the last one back in 2014. Pop’s Spurs are recognized as one of the teams with the more beautiful basketball display in NBA history. It might be time for a new era as rumors say Popovich is considering retirement after all his success.

The Thunder is the only team in the major professional North American sports leagues based in Oklahoma. The franchise gets recognition for the Sonics 1979 NBA championship, but they have never won a title under the Thunder umbrella. At some point in 2012, OKC drafted MVP award winners Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden. They reached the NBA finals but failed to win it against the Miami Heat.

The Blazers entered the league as an expansion team in 1970. Between 1977 and 1995 they sold out 841 consecutive games. It remains as the second-longest streak in American major professional sports. The team has reached the NBA finals three times, winning only once in 1977. They haven’t been in the finals since 1992 when they were beaten by Michael Jordan’s Bulls.

 Since 2000, the Mavericks are owned by the American businessman and investor, Mark Cuban. Since he acquired the franchise, they have reached two NBA finals, winning their only title in 2011. German forward Dirk Nowitzki is the team’s icon, but at the age of 40, Nowitzki is more of a lucky charm than a solid contributor to the team. Rookie Luka Doncic has now the responsibility to take the team back to the top.

Because Michael Jordan was such a stud in the ’90s the Utah Jazz never won an NBA title. Twice they reached the finals in 1997 and 1998 under the legendary duo of Karl Malone and John Stockton but came up short. They haven’t reached the finals since. Donovan Mitchell is the team’s best player. Mitchell will be the star of the franchise for a long time, but he will need help to lead this team where it has never been before.

The Kings are one of the oldest continuously professional basketball franchises in the United States. They were born the Rochester Seagrams in 1923 and changed its name to the Sacramento Kings in 1951. They have one NBA title in the books as the Rochester Royals. The team hasn’t reached the NBA playoffs since 2006.

The Suns are the only a member of the league’s Western Conference Pacific Division that’s not based in California. They are one of the few franchises in the NBA who had never won a title despite reaching the finals in 1976 and 1993. Currently, the Suns are the worst team in the West.

The Wolves were founded back in 1989. They had never won a Conference title in the West; therefore have never reached the NBA Finals. They have won one division title, earned in 2004. The team has hopes on forward Karl-Anthony Towns Jr. to lead them to success, but it hasn’t gotten yet. Minnesota already fired their coach and team president Tom Thibodeau this season.

The LA Clippers are the ugly little brother of the Lakers. They have never won a title nor have won the Western Conference since it was founded in 1970. The franchise’s best moments were under the “Lob City” years with Blake Griffin and Chris Paul, but they were always stopped by the Warriors. Griffin now plays in Detroit and Paul in Houston.

Technically the Pelicans were founded in 2002 when they were the New Orleans Hornets, a franchise coming from Charlotte. Other than the change of names the Pelicans are known for Anthony Davis and his amazing skills. Davis is one of the top five players in the NBA, but the franchise hasn’t done enough to help him reach the next level. Davis might be on the market soon as a free agent.

The Nuggets were founded in 1967 as the Denver Rockets, and it was until 1974 when they changed to their current name. Denver has never been in the NBA finals, and their last division title was back in 2010. They currently have an exciting young team, but it lacks a star player to carry the franchise.

Founded in 1995 in Vancouver, the Grizzlies found a new home in 2001. Memphis has never won a division title, let alone and conference or an NBA championship. Their best years came under the Spanish center Marc Gasol and forward Zach Randolph, but they were never good enough to reach the top of the mountain.

The Eastern Conference hasn’t featured the same talent level as the Western Conference. Before jumping on the Lakers, the conference saw LeBron James lead his teams to eight straight Conference titles, between the Miami Heat and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Teams from the East have won the NBA title five times in the last 19 seasons.

 No team in the NBA has more Championships than the Boston Celtics. Since they were founded in 1946, they have been the standard for excellence in the league. 17 NBA titles would do that. The last time they won an NBA ring was back in 2008, but they have quite the team to get it done this season. Boston is one of the favorites to win the Eastern Conference in the 2018-19 season.

The Raptors are the only Canadian-based team in the league. Toronto has never won an Eastern Conference championship, but this season might have the best chance in franchise history. The Raptors have one of the league’s best players in Kawhi Leonard. They have an open road to the finals now that LeBron James is in Los Angeles.

The Bucks won their first NBA title in 1971, three years after the franchise got in the NBA. But they haven’t won since. The last time Milwaukee won the Eastern Conference title was back in 1974. This season they have one of the most dominating players in the NBA in the Greek Giannis Antetokounmpo. Giannis is one of the most exciting players in the league because of his uncanny athletic skills.

The Pacers used to play in ABA where they won three league titles, but they haven’t won one since they joined the NBA in 1976. Indiana’s best years were in the 90’s where Reggie Miller always put them in place to compete in the East. He was not able to get the job done in the end. Victor Oladipo is now the star player on the team. Oladipo is not a Top-10 player, but it has a lot of upsides in his game.

The Sixers are one of the oldest franchises in NBA history. Philadelphia has won three NBA titles and reached the finals nine times. However, it’s been a while since they had any real success. 1983 was the last time they ended up as Champions, and 2001 was the previous time reached the finals. They have in Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons that can end the long drought of championships.

Founded in 1988, the Heat is one of the youngest and most successful franchises in the NBA. Miami has won three NBA Championships, the first one coming in 2006 and the last one in 2013 during the Dwayne Wade – LeBron James era. The Heat is not currently title contenders, but they are aiming to reach the playoffs once again.

One of the most famous franchises in the NBA is the New York Knickerbockers. Their fame doesn’t match their success. The Knicks have won only two NBA titles and haven’t done it since 1973. The last time they reached the NBA finals was back in 1999. Along with the Boston Celtics, the Knicks are one of only two original NBA teams still located in its original city.

The Pistons moved to Detroit out of Fort Wayne in 1957. They had their most successful fun in the 80’s as part of the “Bad Boys” team that won two NBA titles in a row. The Pistons won again in 2004 and reached the final in 2005 but lost to the San Antonio Spurs. Detroit’s current squad is nowhere near those glory days. Their best player is Blake Griffin, whose primer was wasted by the LA Clippers.

The Magic has its best years in the 90’s when Shaquille O’Neal and Penny Hardaway formed one of the most lethal duos the NBA has seen. The franchise made it to the final 1995 but lost to the Houston Rockets. Orlando had another run in the NBA finals again in 2009, but once again they failed to win it all. This season they lack playmakers, and the playoffs seem to be slipping away.

1978 was the last season Washington saw their NBA team get a ring. A year later they would be back in the finals but failed in the attempt to repeat as champions. They haven’t gotten back to the finals since, either named the Bullets or the Wizards. John Wall is their current best player, but he suffered a season-ending surgery, and the team doesn’t look the same without him.

The Nets were born in 1967 and were for the majority of the time in New Jersey. The franchise moved to Brooklyn in 2012, but success has escaped since they moved. As the NJ Nets, they reached two NBA finals in 2002 and 2003, losing both to the Los Angeles Lakers and the San Antonio Spurs. This season the team is aiming for the playoffs under a roster without a single star player.

They started as the Charlotte Hornets in 1988 but evolved to the Charlotte Bobcats in 2004. The name never stuck with the people, and they went back to being the Hornets in 2014. The owner of the team is the legendary former player Michael Jordan. But the franchise hasn’t been able to emulate what MJ did on the court. The Hornets have never won the Eastern Conference title.

The Hawks currently own the second-longest drought (behind the Sacramento Kings) of not winning an NBA championship at 60 seasons. Their only championship came in 1958, and they haven’t reached the NBA finals since 1961. The drought is most likely to continue this season as well. Atlanta is out of the playoffs’ fight already, and we haven’t even reached half of the season.

Under Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and coach Phil Jackson, the Bulls had one of the most glorified dynasties the sports world has ever seen during the 90’s. That team won six NBA titles in eight years. The Bulls haven’t been as good since 1998 when the squad broke up. Currently, Chicago has one of the worst teams in the NBA.

Just a year ago the Cavs were the Eastern Conference Champions, and now they are the worst team in the East. They lost LeBron James in free agency to the Lakers and team went crumbling down from that point. Cleveland has one NBA title earned during the 2016 season in one of the most surprising outcomes in league history. But it doesn’t look like the franchise would be back on top anytime soon.

NBA Teams With The Most Titles

The NBA started in 1947, and there have been 72 NBA titles up for grabs. Between the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers are 33 of those 72 NBA championships. Those two franchises have reached the NBA Finals 52 times combined. No other team has won more six titles, and 19 franchises have won at least one. The last one to do so was Cleveland Cavaliers in 2016.

• 17 NBA Championships

The Celtics have a huge rate of success when they reach the NBA Finals. Boston has won 17 titles in 21 NBA finals appearance. Their first championship came in 1957 and their last 2018. During the 60’s they won nine NBA rings as the best team in the decade and one of the best in history. They won two more in the 70’s and added three more in the 80’s under Larry Bird. Bill Russell who had 11 championships with the Celtics and Larry Bird who earned three are considered the two best players in franchise history.

• 16 NBA Championships 

The Lakers have had several winning eras starting in 1949 with their first NBA title. During the 80’s they won five championships in the “Showtime Lakers” era under Magic Johnson. Los Angeles had a drought of 12 years without a title from 1998 to 2000 until the “Shaq and Kobe” era began. Just this century they have won five championships alone; although their last NBA title was back in 2010.

• 6 NBA Championships

The 90’s is known to be the golden era of the NBA with Michael Jordan and the Bulls dominating the basketball world for about a decade. The team won six NBA titles in eight years. Those two years were they failed had Jordan briefly retired as he tried to play baseball. MJ, Scottie Pippen and the rest of the Bulls formed one of the best and more unstoppable dynasties in NBA history.

• 6 NBA Championships

The Warriors have been one of the most dominating teams in NBA history. They have won three of their last four NBA title, and they don’t look like they want to stop. Golden State won its first title in 1947. In 2015, Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson led the team to its first NBA championship in 40 years. In 2016 they followed it with a 73-9 season but failed to close the finals against the Cavaliers. The following season they added the top player in the market, Kevin Durant, and won the next two NBA championships in a row. If Curry and Durant stay on the same team, the Warriors promised to remain unbeatable.

• 5 NBA Championships

When coach Gregg Popovich took the job in San Antonio in 1996, the franchise had zero championships. They drafted center Tim Duncan in 1997; fast forward 20 years the franchise had won five NBA rings since. The success of the team also goes on the back of the international players Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker. Both were key members of the Spurs dynasty this century. San Antonio never won back-to-back NBA titles but extended their success from 1999 when they won their first championship up to 2014.

Key Basketball Player Positions

Knowing the position of NBA players will help a lot. Before finding the edge betting NBA basketball, it’s good to know the basics. Identifying the best players in the world by position helps understand matchups, and why a team is favored over the other. There is also the proposition bets available on every game. Betting on a player’s performance is possible, and it has a lot of value in the long run.

Usually, the point guard is the player who starts the offense for the team. They are the one that commands the attack and are known as the floor general. It is often the smallest player on the roster but with lots of handling and passing abilities. Most recently, the point guard has evolved to become more of a score, and not only a facilitator for others. The PG is responsible for directing plays but will hang on the top of the three-point line ready to hit a three-pointer in any moment notice. Steph Curry from the Warriors, Chris Paul from the Rockets and Kyrie Irving from the Celtics might be the best current point guards in the NBA.

This position’s name is self-explanatory. The guard is used in tactical situations mostly trying to open the space on the floor. Its number one task is to be ready to shoot or attack the basket. The best shooting guards have a good combination of skills including being great three-point shooters. But they can also create their own shot by driving the ball into the basket with their handling abilities. James Harden from Houston is the best shooting guard right now in the NBA. He’s the league’s current most valuable player.

The small forward is the other wing on the floor. The position is considered the most versatile out of the five in the lineup. The players on this role are fast and strong but can also shoot as well as the shooting guard, especially in the NBA’s current day and age. The small forward will try to get to the basket as much as they can because they can dunk the ball easier and quicker than the rest of the players on the floor. They are also defensive specialists. LeBron James from the Lakers, Kevin Durant of the Warriors, Kawhi Leonard of the Raptors and Giannis Antetokounmpo from the Bucks are the best in the business.

The power forward position has a similar role to the center. However, they can do a lot more scoring because the players in this position have mostly developed a mid-range shot. Coaches ask the power forward to do a bit of everything. It goes from scoring to rebounding, to stretching the floor and playing good defense. The position has lost some value in recent years as the NBA evolves to a more three-point league. Draymond Green of the Warriors, Joel Embiid from the Sixers and Blake Griffin of the Pistons are the best the NBA.

The center will be placed to play near the baseline. Its primary goal is to grab rebounds because they are usually the tallest on the floor. They also have to play defense and set screens on offense. The center is not often a skill player or a great shooter. Their importance is about doing the little things, so the rest of the skill players get the baskets.

NBA Game Rules

During an NBA Basketball game, there are two teams of five players trying to score as many points as possible shooting the ball through the hoop. Is a simple concept, however, there are rules in the game that players must follow to score valid points and keep the action flowing.  For example, When the offensive team starts playing behind the mid-court line, they must cross that line within 10 seconds otherwise they lose possession of the ball. Once the offensive team crosses the mid-court line in possession of the ball, they can’t go back of the line while carrying the ball, because if they do the defensive team gets it. Other common NBA basketball game rules are:

1. Traveling – A player can’t run or walk with the ball without dribbling. Each bounce of the ball allows two steps to advance. If a player takes more than a step and a half without bouncing the ball that’s considered traveling. Is also considered traveling when a player moves the pivot foot once it stopped dribbling.
2. Fouls – Basketball is a contact sport, but this doesn’t mean that the court is a boxing ring or an MMA octagon, there’s legal and illegal contact that might occur during the game. for instance, Shouldering, holding, striking, pushing, slapping or tripping the opponent is not allowed.
3. Held ball – Is not uncommon during an NBA game —or any basketball game, to be honest. That two or more players from opposite teams gain possession of the ball at the same time and “fight” to keep it. Some referees will give players a few seconds to see if anyone can keep the ball, however more often than not to avoid a prolonged and potentially violent situation, the referee stops the action and gives the ball to any team and the game continues.
4. Goaltending – When a player is defending and interferes with a shot aiming the hoop while it’s on the way down toward the basket, or if the interference happens while the ball is going up toward the hoop after it hits the backboard, or when the ball is in the cylinder just right above the rim, it’s considered goaltending and the shot is taken as a valid point.
5. Game Time – NBA games have four quarters of 12 minutes each. The game is played out on average over 2 hours 15 minutes. When there’s a tie, the overtime is 5 minutes long until the game has a winner. The NBA also has a 24-second rule, this means that a team has 24 seconds after gaining possession to attempt scoring a point.

NBA History

The NBA was founded in New York City on June 6, 1946. Its first name was Basketball Association of America (BAA) but in 1949 changed to the National Basketball Association. The game of basketball was invented in 1891 by Canadian professor James Naismith in Springfield, Massachusetts. Basketball was originally played with a soccer ball. In 1906, finally, the metal hoops with backboards were introduced.

The first ever basket was made by Ossie Schectman of the Knickerbockers on November 1, 1946, in Toronto, Canada. The first game was between the Toronto Huskies and the New York Knickerbockers. When the league evolved to becoming the NBA in 1949, there were 17 franchises located in big and small cities. A year later the league decided to unify efforts and have only eight well-equipped franchises to play in the NBA. In 1954 it was introduced the 24-second shot clock. It was put in the rule book to encourage shooting and discourage stalling.

The Chicago Packers (now Washington Wizards) became the ninth NBA team in 1961. By 1968 there were 14 franchises already in the league with the addition of the Chicago Bulls, Milwaukee Bucks, and Phoenix Suns, who still remain in the NBA. The league’s current logo inspired by the legendary Jerry West was introduced in 1971. It remains as one of the primary logos in pop culture to this day. In 1974 the NBA evolved to 18 franchises with the arrival of the Portland Trail Blazers, the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Utah Jazz and the Buffalo Braves.

The three-point field goal was implemented in 1979. That same year the Boston Celtics selected rookie Larry Bird, and the Los Angeles Lakers picked rookie Magic Johnson. The 80’s is known as the decade that saved the NBA after years with low TV ratings. Bird and Magic were the two most prominent figures of the era. The two players battled in three NBA finals and won eight NBA championships combined.

In 1984 the Chicago Bulls selected Michael Jordan with the second pick in the NBA Draft. Jordan and the Bulls would win their first title in 1990 and dominated the decade with six championships in eight seasons. Jordan is responsible for the skyrocketed NBA popularity in the entire world. The league evolved from being a National product to becoming a global mainstream league during the 90’s. In 1995 the Vancouver Grizzlies and the Toronto Raptors were created. Those were the first Canadian based franchised since the Toronto Huskies appear in the 40’s. The Raptors are the only remaining team from Canada in the NBA.

The modern era of basketball has seen the San Antonio Spurs and the Los Angeles Lakers reached 13 NBA finals since the breakup of the Chicago Bulls. The Spurs and Lakers combined for 10 NBA championships during this span. The recent era has seen international players become superstars in their respective teams. German Dirk Nowitzki won a title with the Dallas Mavericks in 2011. The Argentinean Manu Ginobili and French Tony Parker were crucial pieces in four of the Spurs five titles.

The NBA features 30 teams at this point, and their ratings remain as the second-most watched major league in American sports, only behind the NFL. The dominance of the Golden State Warriors in recent years hasn’t hurt the league. Instead, most franchises are creating super teams with superstar players to try to end their dominance.

The league has evolved to a more three-point shooting environment. That has made three-point shooters more valuable both in the draft and the free agency. The NBA has the most exciting free agency period of the four major leagues in the United States. Several players move from one team to another trying to become the missing piece for any franchise’s title shot. Even the big names like LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and James Harden have hit the market looking for a better opportunity.

With a palpable increased in scoring, there are multiple chances to bet on basketball in the recent climate of the NBA. Basketball betting is a must during the season and even more in the playoffs and the NBA finals. Betting the NBA spread, the money line or the game totals give both the new and usual bettors a chance to increase their bankroll every night. There is a well-known gap between the best teams in the league and the ones trying to build something. That is the best opportunity to take advantage of the trusted sportsbooks betting lines.

Is It legal To Bet On The NBA?

The current NBA commissioner Adam Silver has been one of the most influential and most prominent advocates of introducing betting into the major sports leagues. Silver has helped the break the stigma, and barrier than sports leagues and sports betting can’t coexist. Adam Silver didn’t just say the right words, the league took action into partnering with sports betting entities.

The NBA was the first major league to sign a deal with MGM entertainment back in July 2018. It was a three-year deal worth $25 Million for MGM resorts to using all the league’s official date, logos and promotions tools. The NBA features MGM and betting products throughout the games in the states where sports betting has been legalized. Similar deals are now in place with the MLB and the NFL.

The NBA also signed a second deal with the Canadian-based sports betting company, The Stars Group. They became an “Authorized Gaming Operator” of the league. Since the US Supreme Court gave the favorable decision in 2018 where states can legalize sports betting at their individual discretion, six states have allowed state-regulated sports betting industries. New Jersey was the first state to join Nevada as states with legalized sports betting. Delaware, Mississippi, Rhode Island, West Virginia and Pennsylvania followed them. 16 more states are lined up to be added to the list in the next few months.

While betting with local bookies or at brick n’ mortar sportsbooks is an option, there is nothing like betting from the comfort of home or any place for that matter. Driving to a sportsbook takes time and effort, and even then, you’re not going to beat the options that online betting sites offer. Only online sportsbooks offer deposit bonuses and lucrative VIP programs. They also have a far better selection of odds.

“If you have mobile betting, I’m not really sure that in-arena is any different than anywhere else. That’s not to say we would rule out in-arena kiosks, but in different states, the licensing of that may be more cumbersome than you’d think, but to the extent that there is mobile betting, we know that there will be betting in the arena”, Scott Kaufman-Ross, the NBA’s Vice President, said.

Online sportsbooks give customers bonuses when they sign-up and offer regular promotions centered around major sporting events, such as the NBA All-Star Game, NBA Playoffs, and NBA Finals. Using several different betting sites when you wager on basketball will not only allow you to take advantage of more bonuses but will enable you to get the best price on your bets through line shopping.
