Yesterday was a 2-5 dud, my first losing day in a while. That's what happens when you get a 40-point blowout in the playoffs.
Two games, seven plays.
All wagers and returns based on $10. Please check game time lineups before wagering.
Hawks at SIXERS 7:35 pm EDT, Clippers at JAZZ 10:05 pm.
3-pointers: Clint Capela (Hawks) double-double And Hawks win +350 (returns $45.00) I'm hedging this with the next bet, figuring one is likely to happen and I'll more than double my money. Capela has double-doubled in the last four games.
Tobias Harris (Sixers) double-double And Sixers win +350 (returns $45.00) Harris has either double-doubled or been one stat away in all the playoff games and tonight is a must-win for the Sixers.
JAZZ Over Clippers and Over 220.5 +210 (returns $31.00) After two elimination game wins, I think the Clippers have to take a bit of a mental breather tonight. I don't expect them to play like the Bucks, but I think they'll need a game to get their heads into this series. On the other hand, Mike Conley being out, may give the Clippers a chance to steal one.
2-pointers: Danny Green (Sixers) Over 2.5 made threes +140 (returns $24.00) Green went 0-4 from three in Game 1. The last time he went 0-4, he went 4-7 the next game.
John Collins (Hawks) Over 1.5 made threes +117 (returns $21.70) Collins has made 2+ threes in six of the last 10 games. I like to get a + number for something that happens 60% of the time.
Royce O'Neale (Jazz) Over 7.5 points +105 (returns $20.50) O'Neale topped this number in the last four games against Memphis, and has been shooting very well from three.
Donovan Mitchell (Jazz) Over 6.5 assists +105 (returns $20.50) Mitchell went for 8 and 10 in the last two games and will have more playmaking responsibilities tonight with Mike Conley out.
Winners:
2-pointers: Deandre Ayton (Suns) double-double And Suns win +171 (returns $27.10) Ayton had 20 points and 10 boards in the Suns 122-105 win.
Monte Morris (Nuggets) Over 4.5 assists +130 (returns $23.00) Morris shot 1-10 but had 6 assists.
Losers:
3-pointers: Blake Griffin (Nets) double-double +400 (returns $50.00) Griffin had 7 points and 8 rebounds in 25 minutes. Would have made the number if the Bucks showed up.
Kyrie Irving (Nets) double-double +350 (returns $45.00) Irving had 22 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists in 33 easy-going minutes.
Khris Middleton (Bucks) double-double +350 (returns $45.00) 17 points, 5 boards, not a factor
Jrue Holiday (Bucks) double-double +285 (returns $38.50) 13-4-3, not a factor.
2-pointers: Devin Booker (Suns) Over 2.5 made threes +130 (returns $23.00) Booker went only 1-4 from three but the Suns won 122-105.
