NBA Basketball Mobile Betting Guide

​From the regular season debut in October to the Finals in June, NBA mobile betting offers the opportunity for profit every day of the week. The 82 game regular season of professional basketball provides a long-term chance to really study a team's trends, making winning at NBA Smart phone betting arguably the most efficient of any of the major American sports.
 
One of the best things about NBA mobile betting is that it's the sport where a single player has the most impact on your outcome. Granted, NFL quarterbacks have a big impact on football games and riding a hot MLB pitcher in baseball is important but it doesn't compare to the 5-on-5 action of the NBA. If Kevin Durant, LeBron James, or Stephen Curry have huge scoring nights, there's a pretty good chance you're going to win your wager if you bet on them.

The popularity of NBA Android betting is only growing. The ability to put in a wager as information becomes available each night is crucial, especially when many coaches bench their star players at the last minute to give them some rest over the long season. When you're out watching the game, it's also critical to be able to put in a live bet on your Smart phone if a team comes out sluggish, throwing up enough bricks to build a Summer home.
 
Intro to Mobile Gambling on the NBA
 
Mobile basketball betting really is an animal within itself.  There are obvious comparisons in other sports, such as hockey and baseball being very similar to wager on but not the NBA.  On any given night in professional basketball you'll find spreads that range from a Pick'Em to the Golden State Warriors or Cleveland Cavaliers being favored by 15-20+ points. In this regard NBA Android and iPhone betting is very similar to the NFL, but still not the same. For example, points are hard to come by in the NFL and if you have a 10 point cushion in the final moments your winning bet is usually safe. With fouls, poor defense, and hot shooting in the NBA spreads are usually won and lost exclusively in the last 2 minutes of the game. This is what makes every second of NBA mobile betting so exciting – and why you need to be able to bet from your Smart phone on a whim!
 
Bet Types You Can Make on an iPhone or Samsung Galaxy
 
NBA mobile spread bets can be agonizing if you lose your wager on a meaningless half-court shot at the buzzer – but thrilling if that same shot leads to a win! This is why spread bets are the most popular NBA iPhone bet. Taking a team to win by a certain amount of points offers more value than a moneyline bet where you might have to risk $280 to win $100 on the Los Angeles Lakers (-280) or Chicago Bulls (-280) to win the game outright.
 
One of the biggest advantages of mobile NBA wagering is the chance to make live in-game bets. This is a very popular type of NBA wager because it allows you to make your bet after seeing some of the game action play out. You really don't know how travel is going to affect a team's fatigue until the game starts. Plus, star players can get relegated to the bench if they get in early foul trouble and you can take advantage of that on the fly with an in-play bet from an iPhone or Android sportsbooks for United States punters.
 
A few other popular types of NBA mobile bets include:

• Totals – betting on whether a game goes over or under the total points can be very lucrative. Fatigue for example can lead to cold shooting nights and low points – but also lackadaisical defense which can lead to high scoring games!
• Parlays – if you've got a good read on point spreads or totals for a night of NBA mobile betting you can double or triple your winnings (or more) by combining multiple winners on a parlay ticket.
• Props – the NBA offers a number of nightly prop bets including a lot of individual wagers on whether a player like James Harden has over or under “X” amount of points or if Russell Westbrook has “X” amount of assists or not. NBA iPhone prop bets are a more interesting spin on the daily fantasy sports that have become so popular.

 
Tips for NBA Mobile Betting Success
 
One of the biggest factors you need to take into consideration for NBA iOS/Android betting success is the schedule. The NBA itinerary can be difficult whereas one team is playing on back to back nights while their opponent has had 4-5 days rest. You'll also want to pay attention to the trends of star players. Ride the hot streaks, but continual poor nights from Curry or James and other high-scoring players could signify an undisclosed injury.  Something else that is very underrated is NBA coaching. It just seems like bosses like Gregg Popovich, Tom Thibodeau, and others command player respect more than others which helps to avoid the 'off' night.
 
With so many games on the nightly schedule, you also need to figure out your NBA sports betting strategy. Do you want to be a volume bettor, making 5-10 wagers a night in order to try and counter any bad reads? Would you rather do in-depth research and focus on 1-3 solid bets a night in an attempt to stave off losses? Both methods have led to success, but perhaps you want to start wagering with a lower amount of money to find out which style suits you best.
 
There's money to be had gambling on basketball. For example if you bet on solely the Golden State Warriors moneyline in the 2015/16 season, their 73-9 record meant that you would have been +64 on victories over the year!
