As the NBA Finals continue this week, we wanted to present you with a new and successful backtested betting strategy. This week’s Alloy Forecast was built using the Quickstart Wizard. The Wizard platform allows you to build powerful strategies in under 30 seconds.

We’re calling this week’s forecast the “No I in Team” strategy. To win in the NBA playoffs, let alone the Finals, it takes a village. This strategy takes into account three key factors that only great teams accomplish. In the Wizard, the characteristics selected were teams with strong passing, a strong bench and 2-point shooting. We only looked at teams playing opponents with winning records for the historical results. Within 30 seconds we received these results:

From the results above, you see that we backtested this strategy across two full seasons. Both 2020 and 2021 hit at a 58% win rate for heavy favorites. That is what you call sticky! For the two seasons combined we have a return on investment over 12%.
