80% of the spread bets on New York Knicks at Chicago Bulls are on the New York Knicks (-7.5), with 83% of the money. That's a one-sided split for the NBA, where the typical game has about 61% of spread tickets on the more popular side.
The spread is set to divide opinion, so a lean this strong means the crowd likes one side at this number. Fading heavily bet NBA spread sides hasn't beaten the bookmaker's margin over the last two seasons, so treat the number as a read on the crowd, not on the game.
On the total, 64% of bets and 61% of the money are on the Over 234.5. That's the normal pattern in the NBA: over the last two seasons, 60% or more of total bets landed on the over in about 96% of games.

It's on the high side. The typical NBA game closes with about 61% of spread tickets on the more popular side, and one game in four clears 68%. Even so, a split this one-sided says what the crowd thinks, not what will happen.
Bet percentage counts tickets: every wager counts once. Money percentage counts dollars, so one $1,000 bet outweighs a hundred $10 ones. Reading the two together shows whether the bigger bettors agree with the crowd.
Not on the split alone. Across the last two NBA seasons, neither backing the side with more money than tickets nor fading heavily bet spread sides reliably beat the bookmaker's margin at closing prices. Splits are context for your own read, not a pick.
At the latest snapshot, the New York Knicks have 80% of the spread bets and 83% of the money. The table above has both sides of the spread, the total and the moneyline.

Less than you might think. The spread is built to split opinion, so the typical NBA game closes with about 61% of spread tickets on the more popular side, and one game in four clears 68%. A split past 70% is a real lean from the crowd. Fading those heavy public sides has not beaten the bookmaker's margin either. See our methodology →
