How to read Pacific Division odds once they post
A price converts to a break-even chance. For plus money, divide 100 by the price plus 100: a team at +300 needs to win the division 25.0% of the time. For minus money, divide the price by the price plus 100: a favorite at -120 needs 54.5%.
A division bet is worth making only when you rate a team’s chance higher than its price does. Add up the eight teams’ break-even rates and the total will pass 100%, which is the book’s margin.
