NBA Basketball Point Spreads A Traditional Family Play

Betting on NBA basketball point spreads is a popular recreational activity carried on throughout the world. Betting on the NBA basketball point spreads dates back to the inception of play in the NBA in 1947.

The National Basketball Association, with the acronym NBA, has been in existence since 1947, and NBA basketball point spreads have been in existence since the initial jump ball. There has always been a public fascination with the basketball point spread, and betting on NBA basketball point spreads has been conducted in many families dating back to the origin of the NBA. The issue in those days was that the only legal recourse in order to place your wager on the NBA basketball point spreads was to hop on a plane and visit sportsbooks palaces in casino parlors in Las Vegas. As this option wasn’t too feasible for many, our ancestors from a couple of generations ago sought alternate, albeit illegal, means in order to participate in their recreational pastime of betting on NBA basketball point spreads.

As children, some of us had the opportunity to observe old-time sports betting investors in action. We would focus on our Uncle Billy (Didn’t everyone had an Uncle Billy?) as he sat in the dining room reviewing the morning NBA basketball point spreads as they appeared in the New York Journal American newspaper. Uncle Billy had a pencil and a piece of paper, and he made two columns. One column had the games he would definitely bet on according to the NBA basketball point spreads, and the other column had the questionable games. Uncle Billy would explain that betting on those games would depend on the NBA basketball point spreads at the time he went to place his bets.

While he would let his nephews accompany him around the corner to Hamm’s Candy Store, we had to wait outside while he bought a pack of Lucky Strikes from Mr. Hamm and handed the shopkeeper the list of bets according to the NBA basketball point spreads. Betting is easier and legal today, but there was something intriguing and special about betting on the NBA basketball point spreads the old fashioned way.
