How many teams in the NBA have won & covered 8 straight ATS for as far as you can go back?

Ed,

I have plenty of work to do without "you putting me to work," but thanks for the thought.

Since 1995 (that's where I go back to right now with my database), there have been 18 times that a team has won 8 consecutive games both SU/ATS. Those teams are 9-9 SU and 6-12 ATS in that 9th game. Here is the breakdown:

Home teams: 3-3 ATS
Away teams: 3-9 ATS
Dogs: 1-4 ATS (all away)
Favorites: 5-8 ATS

Finally, note that of the 6 that won and made it 9 consecutive SU/ATS, those teams were 2-4 SU and 1-5 ATS in that 10th game.

yeah I know, that was a joke. LOL

So 9 times in 12 seasons it has happened...........or about once ever 1.25 seasons.....meaning it is a rare feat, and I love betting against rarities........too bad I am getting my ass handed to me in this one.
