I’m going to list my favorite plays for today’s slate of games. Things are always subject to change due to players sitting or games even being postponed. Make sure you are paying attention to any and all late-breaking news, and try to use common sense if a point spread moves up or down. The plays I LOVE are my top plays for the slate. Whether you fade or follow, good luck!
I just created my own site, Conncretelocks.com, where you will find my daily podcast and my exclusive packages. I’m going to give you a few plays I like and a writeup on each pick on an everyday basis moving forward. I hope you win some money, whether you fade or play.
Celtics-Heat under 216 — These playoffs have been absurd and they have been kicking my tail, especially in this round. I can’t bet the side in this game. A lot of the sharps are still on the Celtics and there is way too much money coming in on the Heat. I do love this to go under either way, though. If the Celtics win, they have to slow down the pace. If the Heat win, this could be a blowout. I like a lower-scoring second half.
Brewers +115 Astros — We have two questionable pitchers going here. With all the money coming in on the Astros, I think it’s a great time to fade them and bet on the home dog in what is a really even matchup in my opinion.
Padres-Nationals under 8 — Revenge spot for MacKenzie Gore? He gets to face his former team in the Padres, who are struggling to score runs. Yu Darvish is going for the Padres and I don’t think he will have any issues keeping runs off the board. Looks like a great spot for the under and it’s supported by the weather as well.
