Why These Picks?

‍

TB Lightning v MTL Canadiens: This series has been heated – and I love it! That said, I anticipate today’s game being an absolute battle for the ages in which goals will be hard to come by. 2 of the 3 games in this series so far have stayed below 6, I don’t doubt that today follows suit. I’m on the Under to cash.

‍

LA Lakers v HOU Rockets: I have no idea how the Lakers keep getting cast as the underdog in this matchup. Los Angeles has won all 3 games in this series so far, and Kevin Durant is currently listed as questionable for Houston. The Lakers have made it clear that they’re “in it to win it” so to speak; and even if they take a loss tonight against what is now a desperate Rockets squad, it won’t be by more than a basket or two. It’s also worth nothing that Houston has actually lost 7 of their last 8 games against LA. If Durant winds up being ruled out, I won’t be surprised by a sweep. I’m on LA to cover the spread.
