New York Knicks Team Total o105.5 (-112)

A few factors kept the Knicks from going Over their team total of 110.5 in Game 5. Starters Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart played only five minutes each in the fourth quarter due to injury and combined for just three points and two assists in that final frame. New York was also uncharacteristically bad from the foul line, hitting just 16 of 27 foul shots. Those things shouldn't be an issue in Game 6.

Nuggets +6.5
I will take the points in this game . Denver is shooting 120.8 PPG compare to Clippers shooting 112.9 PPG

Phillies -.5 1st 5 -110

Phillies have been best home team -.5 1st 5 team the last few yrs and has got off to a good start this yr going to the well once again and hope for the sweep in the series -.5 1st 5 vs Wash

KC under 8

KC has gone under 5 of the last 6, 8 of last on the road, 5 of the last 6 against TB, and also TB’s last 5 games has gone under. Good luck

St. Louis Cardinals @ Cincinnati Reds Over 9

The last two game Reds SP Andrew Abbott has taken the mound the total has been set at 9 and the game has gone over.

The Cardinals bats combined for 15 runs over the course of their double-header yesterday.

The double-header also led to the Reds burning through 5 relievers and the Cardinals using 4 so the bullpens clearly won't be as deep as they would be in a typical game.

Tampa-162 The Rays have covered in 3 straight games with Shane Baz starting

Couple plays here gents and it both chalk.
Going with Avs at home laying the juice -190. Really think this is a 7 game series and with their veteran presence they should force a game 7. Now if it does go game 7, then I’d fire on Dallas because Dallas coach is undefeated all time in game 7s. Something like 7/8-0.
How about them damn oilers -175. Kings blew their chance not winning the past 2 games playing “not to lose” in the 3rd period. Edmonton is the hungrier team, at home and has all the damn momentum. This one could get ugly
Let’s go oil. Kings will probably fire their coach if they lose the series.

Giants -265 . How did the Rockies win 5 games ? They are fundamentally the worst team by far. At times they looked like they are a team that has never practiced. Giants should win easily

Denver Nuggets +6 (-108) and ML +208

The Clippers are in a must-win situation for Game 6.
In Game 5, Jamal Murray scored 43 points, leading the Nuggets to a 131-115 victory.
Nikola Jokic, the reigning MVP, only managed 13 points on 4 of 13 shooting, raising concerns for Clippers fans.
James Harden also struggled, contributing just 11 points. Ivica Zubac was the standout for the Clippers, scoring 27 points despite only grabbing five rebounds.
As the runner-up for the Most Improved Player award, Zubac will be essential in Game 6 to contain Jokic.
The Clippers have faced early playoff exits since 2021, so the pressure is high in this elimination game.
Denver will run their offense through Nikola Jokic as always, and they spread the floor well, shooting a league-wide fifth-best 37.6% from three during the regular season.
Jokic’s outstanding court vision and passing ability to create shots for Murray, Michael Porter Jr., and Christian Braun.
Confident and focused, the Nuggets are poised to close out the series.

Mets ML -150
Mets bounce back here this is a pitching matchup

NYK

Knicks in a couple nice situations 36-13 ATS and 33-13

knicks experienced have won here before and Detroit wont get 30 attenpts at FT line again.

NYK get thru.

Avalanche Regulation- I think we get an experienced Avs team ion a must win game at home at a great price to win within regulation

NBA
under lac vs den. 212
last game was a rare over in this series tonight
back to grind out game especially with lac facing elimination

Denver Nuggets +6

Simply put I think they have the better team. Jokic and Murray are the superstars, while guys like Gordon, Porter and Braun are solid in their roles. What I don't like about the Clippers is Harden. Especially in the 4Q where he dribbles the shot clock down to nothing. Westbrook is the question mark though. If he can have an efficient game like he did last game with 21 points on 8/15 shooting they roll. This should be a close game and I'm taking the points because of that.

Detroit Tigers -130

Kikuchi might be in trouble here. He’s walked 18 batters in his last five starts, and Detroit is a patient team, raking 8th in walks per game. They hit lefties well - batting .250 against them (10th in MLB). Mize has been untouchable, allowing one run or less in four out of his five starts this season.

Phillies over 9.5-110 Phillies will score at ease and not only that Washington is absolutely horrible which they will put up two or three runs but I see this game easily going over 10 take over 9.5

Blue Jays +100....Playing against Houck..Red Sox lost his last 4 starts and he's been getting lit up...Berrios pitched very well against the Yankees last time out
