3-2 night, but I sure wish it was 4-1. I swear to God some bullshit happens on a nightly basis in the NBA. What in the fuck were the Hawks doing? Too much mashed taters and gravy in your system, little boys? Soft athletes these days. Anyway, a winning night. Onto the next, though there’s not much value today.
Also — I will have ZERO NBA picks tomorrow, FYI. My Sunday tradition.
Mavs -2.5 (-110), to win 1 unit
Both these teams need a win and they’re both off extended rest. The Raptors are great at home but this feels like a Luka takeover game. And at their best, Dallas is a top 5-6 team from my purview. Toronto is awesome, but not quite there. A testier battle than people think, I got Dallas coming out the victor by 5 points.
Lakers/Spurs 1H over 112.5 (-110), to win 2 units
This total is way too low. Yea the Lakers defense is pretty good lately, but these two teams shot HORRENDOUSLY last night. Expect some regression from two teams who usually run at a fast pace. At least early, this should be closer to 120.
