We’re soooooo back right now! Last night our pick percentage was .500, but that doesn’t tell the whole story. We hit big time on a parlay that got clinched by one point on a garbage time TD, by Houston, making it a huge night for the boys. We’re gonna stay hot again tonight, this slate is calling my name, SO HARD! Let’s Ride!
NBA
Celtics vs. Raptors – Game 6 we got hosed big time by some suspicious calls, but we rise again for game 7 and we’ll keep on rising after we dominate this game. We will be taking Celtics ML and the under for this game at 204.5. These are two very good defensive teams and we’re gonna see that on display tonight as both teams will be fighting tooth and nail for a spot in the Eastern Conference Finals and that starts on the defensive end of the court for these squads. I expect the Celtics to be able to pull this one out, look for some cardiac Kemba and a Kevin Garnett-like Marcus Smart for game 7.
Clippers vs. Nuggets – The Clippers dominated in game 4 taking a 3-1 lead, the Nuggets look like they’re dead, but I don’t expect them to lie down and die. I’m taking the Nuggets spread at 8.5, this gonna be a semi close game at the very least.
NHL
Lightning vs. Islanders – Game two was a hard fought battle and a absolutely crushing loss for the Islanders, I’m expecting that to have great implications on game 3. I’m taking the Lightning spread at -1.5 goals +175, I just don’t see the islanders recovering from that brutal loss, they’re already at a large talent disadvantage and now I’m not sure if they have enough momentum to keep up.
MLB
Indians vs. Twins – We’ve got another Cy Young matchup on our hands with Maeda and Bieber, these guys have been spectacular and I expect more of the same. I’m taking the Twins spread at 1.5 +200 as a value pick. I’m not 100% confident in it but, I believe Maeda can keep the Twins in it against Bieber and the Indians have struggled the last few days so I’m looking for that bullpen to falter again against the potent Twins offense. Throw some money on this one if you’re feeling frisky.
Red Sox vs. Rays – Last night the Red Sox somehow pulled that game out, so today I’m looking for them to completely fall back to earth against Blake Snell. The Red Sox are also sending Triggs to the mound… whoever that might be, so I’m taking the Rays spread at 1.5 -125 and the over at 8.5 -110. I just don’t see the Red Sox putting together two well played games in a row against a first place team, after all they are tied for worst record in the Bigs.
Tigers vs. White Sox – With Giolito on the mound against a Tigers team that’s been blown out multiple times this week alone, I’m riding the White Sox spread at -1.5 -135. I’m using my lock of the day right here.
Giants vs. Padres – Yep, I told you I was gonna keep riding the Padres until they proved me wrong and they came through last night, so we’re riding them again tonight. I’m taking Padres spread -1.5 +115, I mean how could you not? Those odds are just too good to pass up.
Can’t Lose Parlay
Alright so today we’re gonna try something new, I’m gonna give you my best parlay pick of the day. I’ve got a four team parlay for you today, we’re taking White Sox spread -1.5, Padres spread -1.5, Lightning spread -1.5, and Nuggets spread +8.5. My parlay hit last night so might as well ride the hot hand.
Strap up like you’re game 7 KG and LET’S RIDE!!!!
