New month and there's A LOT to look forward to including what I've been talking about for weeks which is the NBA playoffs where we are going to cash BIG on once that gets started. I will be rolling out a couple educational videos here soon that will be a new part of the show and you will have first access to them. I also plan to do a draft recap for those of you that love the NFL like myself.
The slate today is very nice and I have one pick that I love so let's get right to it.
THE CARD
Dominick Reyes by KO/TKO +225 (3*)
My favorite play of the night. Don't go too crazy on this because it is still fighting and anything can happen. But Reyes is one of the top guys in the division and nearly beat Jon Jones last year. He got caught by Jan in his last fight that was a huge shock to everyone. I like betting on good fighters who have their back up against the wall and that's where Reyes is now. He needs a win and needs an impressive victory to get thrown back into a title fight. If he loses he faces exiting the UFC in the near future. I think he gets it done tonight and I will also be betting him to win by KO/TKO in 1st round +600 and second round +1000.
GSW -8 (3*)
The Warriors have lost 2 straight and they weren't even close. What a better way to get back on track than facing the Rockets who seem to either win or get blown out. I don't usually lay big points like this but the spot seems right for GSW to have a big night.
Atlanta -5 (3*)
I think we can chalk ATL vs PHI up as a bad matchup for the Hawks. They have lost 3 straight but tonight I think they turn it around and win BIG. The Hawks are 12-2 ATS in their last 14 home games and 11-5 ATS in their last 16 games overall. The Bulls on the other hand are are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 road games.
Pacers ML -265 (2*)
I told you I was going to focus on some conservative picks and here is one. Pacers have been blown out in their last two games but what a better way to bounce back than facing the Thunder. They just beat the Thunder on April 21 122-116 and they likely cover in this game as well. But I'll take the ML.
Mavericks ML -210 (2*)
Pains me to fade the Wizards but Dallas has been heating up leading into playoffs so I'll take them on the ML home tonight.
Nuggets ML +175 (1*)
You never know what you're going to get from the Clippers each night and Denver is good enough to beat them so I see this as a value bet taking Denver on the ML.
Dodgers ML -120 (2*)
Anytime I can get the Dodgers under -150 on the ML I bet it. Value play for me.
Yankees ML -215 (2*)
Detroit is just bad and we saw that yesterday. Yankees get it done again today.
Oakland A's -1.5 +105 (1*)
I believe the A's have a big day today so I'll take the plus money on the run line.
