Lot of hoops going on locally Saturday . . . What to prop? What to prop?
There is Villanova battling to stay alive in the race for the Big East No. 1 seed . . .
There are Saint Joseph’s and La Salle battling for Atlantic 10 seeding positions and the subsequent byes . . .
And then there is the NBA Finals Preview from the Wells Fargo Center!
The Sixers are getting 5.5 points from the Warriors and without Joel Embiid and new Philly fan favorite Boban Marjanovic, that seems about right, especially with the revenge factor (Sixers having beaten Golden State out there on Jan. 31). But we can not imagine Philly going down easy, so let’s attack this game as Brett Brown attacks the season: in sections.
The Sixers have owned the second quarter at home (22-8-2) and have a winning record in the first and fourth periods at WFC (both 17-14-1). Their third quarter record there is 14-15-3.
We found the Sixers getting points in each quarter, so we are attacking it this way:
Pick: Sixers First Quarter (+1.5/$1)
Pick: Sixers Second Quarter (+1/$3)
Pick: Sixers Fourth Quarter (+1/$1)
But then we also went with this, just to make it a little more interesting:
Parlay: Game Tied at end of First Quarter & Warriors Win ($1/+2400)
Parlay: Game Tied at end of First Quarter & Sixers Win ($1/+3900)
