Raptors vs Mavericks NBA Preview
Evan Abrams' Road Comeback system identifies NBA road teams positioned for a bounce back after a recent loss, taking advantage of the market’s tendency to undervalue teams following poor performances — The Raptors have lost against the Bucks on Friday, and now will face the Mavs on the first of back-to-back road games (tomorrow will play against the Spurs)
When a team loses in its previous game and then plays again on the road, it often responds with sharper focus and renewed energy.
Public betting tends to fade these teams, driving value on the moneyline within moderate favorite ranges where the talent gap still favors the road side. Historically, these teams show resilience and motivation after a defeat, translating into profitable rebounds during the regular season as they aim to reestablish momentum and avoid extended losing streaks.
