We had a split last night, winning the two winners easily and the Nets letting us down on the spread. Tonight, we're hoping reversion to the mean holds off one more game as the suddenly-hot Knicks are at Toronto to play the 0-3 Raptors. Yes, the Raptors will probably find their game tonight and the Knicks will again play as they did in their first two games, but Julius Randle and Elfrid Payton have been great recently and here's hoping that continues for another night. $10 bets.
3-pointer: Knicks Moneyline over Raptors +320 (returns $42.00)
2-pointers: Brandon Ingram (Pelicans) Over 33.5 points, rebounds, assists -110 (returns $19.10) AND Mike Conley (Jazz) Over 25.5 points, rebounds, assists -121 (returns $18.30)
Free throw: Julius Randle Over 38.5 points, rebounds, assists -110 (returns $19.10)
Steal: Elfrid Payton Over 24.5 points, rebounds, assists -110 (returns $19.10)
Winners:
2-pointer: Kevin Durant Over 5.5 rebounds +100 (returns $20.00) Durant was due for a big rebound game and finished with 11.
Free throw: Celtics -4.5 Over Grizzlies -112 (returns $19.00) The Celtics pummeled the Ja-less Grizzlies 126-107.
Losers:
3 pointer: Kyrie Irving double-double +300 (returns $40.00). Kyrie Kyried the Nets in the 4th quarter, but it's hard to get a double-double when you start playing until the 4th quarter.
Steal: Nets -6 Over Hawks -110 (returns $19.10). The Nets won 145-141. After the game Kevin Durant praised their defense down the stretch. Fats did not.
$40 wagered (2-2), $39.00 returned.
