Yes I thought Tatum said he was ok to play just stiffness. Nothing a little loosening up can't help.............peace_5

Now with 76ers off 2 wins with Embiid line is -8 ,  that's  a 3.5 pt adjustment from game 5 with Embiid. All of a sudden the book makes a much bigger adjustment after 2 very nice 76ers wins with Embiid back. Big adjustments I'll  take the .3.5 pts the book wants to give me. Play is on Celtics Pistons 2.0

Past 2 days --- 1-1, won .8 units

Playoffs --- 10-7 ATS, won 3.15 units

Player props and futures ---0-2, lost .66 units

 

White final went way over with Tatum out.

76ers playing well it appears with Embiid back , how good they are is tough to say. Embiid brings alot but he hasn't played in awhile .

One of the issues with this Celtics team was taking so many 3's they are not close to as good shooting 3's like their 2024 title team. That team had 4 players shot over 40% on 3's this team is not close to that good shooting 3's.

But I thought they were good enough to win the East but not the title.

My Lines ................

Pistons -11.06 over Magic

Cavs -4.98 over Raptors

 

Pistons the better team and off 1-2 ATS at home this series now in a game 7 with my line on the Pistons.

Generally  the book Jacks up the line in closeout games for the clearly better team but with Pistons struggling to put this team away and only 1-2 ATS at home we get a exception of a game where my line is a play in this closeout spot.

Play has to be on the Pistons.

 

Cavs/Raptors are the closest series based on my 2 PR's and the 1 series I thought could be an upset.

But based on how the series has played out it has the form of the Cavs winning the series.

That is on average over the long run. Exceptions  do happen and this could be one but I will pass.

My lines game 1's .................

Knicks -11.46 over 76ers

Spurs -10.59 over Twolves ......using ave

Spurs -8.21 ...... using full season

 

With Embiid back the line seems about right, no play either way based only on my line.

Book seemed to be using full season line on the Spurs in the first round.

With all the injuries to Twolves line seems about right.

 

Knicks off 2 big blowout wins and 3 SU & ATS wins, Knicks become a playoff regression fade. 

76ers are off 3 SU& ATS wins as well so not the best spot to back the 76ers but 76ers not in a major regression  spot like the Knicks.

Play has to be on the 76ers.

 

Spurs off 3 SU & ATS wins as well, crazy that's 3 teams, never seem that before that i can remember. 

Play is on Twolves.

Congratulations on getting such a juicy line with MIN.  Heritage has MIN at +9.5.

Good luck.
