20-19-1 on NBA Playoffs up 9.76 units

Wizards blew it in the 4th quarter like they did all season and multiple games this series. Raptors win Game 6 by limiting turnovers and strong bench play. Will the Wizards blow it up this offseason? Pacers won by 34. Even though the series is 3-3, the total point differential is +42 for the Pacers. They still may lose the series. Oladipo had 28 points on 6-8 shooting from deep. The Thunder lost the series and Westbrook was pissed. The Jazz were better at coaching, passing, defense, and… They were just better. Carmelo had 4 points in the 4th quarter in the entire series. Westbrook had 46 points on 43 shots and Playoff P went 2-16 in Game 6.

Bucks +5 at -118 for 5 units. Bucks have not lost by this much since Game 2. Giannis needs to shoot more than the 10 times like he did last time he was in Boston. Celtics are averaging 93 points in the past 4 games while the Bucks are averaging over 100. I just don’t think Boston can stop Giannis.

Pelicans +9 for 1 unit. Anthony Davis, Uncle Jrue Holiday, and Playoff Rondo went off in the last series and the Warriors have not impressed me too much these playoffs. Who is going to guard Davis? Too many points for how hot the Pelicans are in my opinion.

Pelicans Warriors under 225 for 1 unit. Went 2-1 on unders yesterday so let’s keep it rolling. Warriors did not score over 100 points in their last two games and now they meet a hot team. I thought this number would be 222 so I am taking the little bit of value.

32-32-4 in Hockey up 1.68 units

Bruins ML at +136 for 3 units. Bruins lost out on first place in the East by 1 point to the Lightning in the regular season. Bruins have a top 5 power play and penalty kill. Tampa’s penalty kill struggled this season so I do not put too much stock in them stopping the Devils 16 of 19 times on Jersey’s power play. I think the Bruins will win one game in Tampa. Let’s hope it is this one.

Sharks Knights over 5.5 at +126 for 3 units. Knights had 7 goals by themselves last game.. pretty selfish if you ask me. I just think this is too much value to pass up.

27-20 on MLB up 14.33 units 

6-0 yesterday. Still trying to figure out why the athletics were +143 with Manaea on the mound. Fine with me, that was free money.

Brewers ML at +158 for 3 units. Junior Guerra has given up 2 runs in 16 innings for the Brewers. Jose Quintana has an ERA of 7.78 for the Cubs. Guerra’s is has a 0.56 ERA. I will take the better starting pitcher at plus money. Quintana does have a good history against the Brewers, but this Brewers lineup is better than past seasons.

Diamondbacks ML at -136 for 3 units. Nationals are struggling and the Diamondbacks are not. Now the Diamondbacks get Corbin on the mound. Diamondbacks are 6-2 in day games. Nationals are 5-6. I like this spot.

Giants ML (Game 2) at +107 for 2 units. Cueto at plus money. It is that simple. Cueto has the best ERA in the MLB. Cueto has more strikeouts this year than baserunners allowed. Cueto has not given up a home run either. Also, the Dodgers are banged up.
