Not the finish we wanted to end the season, but we’ll keep pushing forward. 

For tonight, it seems the Blazers are openly saying they want to face the Jazz in the first round. With a shot at the 3 seed by just winning their final home game, Portland has opted to sit Lillard and McCollum tonight. I’m not sure how motivated the Kings will be in the final game of the season, but Portland will now be playing without 3 starters, Lillard, McCollum, and Nursuk in a game they don’t care much for. 

Hopefully this is enough for the Kings to pull the upset, as the Rockets lost a very meaningful game yesterday but can slide back up to the 3 seed with a Blazers loss.

  1. Grizzlies +4.5 -105 (1.5x)
  2. Spurs -14 -108 (2.5x)
  3. Pistons -9.5 -108 (1x)
  4. Kings +4 -105 (3.5x) +165 (0.5x)
  5. Grizzlies +10 / Kings +9.5 -120 (1x)

NBA YTD: 133-121 ATS +36.90 Units

Spurs absolutely must win this game to avoid being the 8th seed and facing GSWarriors in the first round...

But 14 points...?

Popovich is well known for resting guys...this situation is obviously different but I can see him sitting some guys in the last 5 minutes of a 20 point lead and letting the back door cover hit...

Wouldn't bother him a bit as long as they get the win...

Good luck!

PM for the skinny on the down low

Spurs already had 2 days of rest and need this game still. This isn't a b2b for them or anything

LOL. What idiots the Blazers are!! They prefer to go through a red hot Utah team and a red hot GS team, instead of the sputtering Thunder and the no defense Rockets.

Agreed, they better hope they win this game cuz Utah will rough them up without Nursuk down low!

Portland can't be this stupid...not for real....

I'm thinking this is a smoke screen and they either end up starting starters or inserting them in the game if the game starts to get away from them...

I don't think so. All coach is looking at in these situations is how they've faced whichever opponent earlier in the year. With a win, Blazers most likely see the Thunder in the first round. Portland is 0-4 against them. They've done much better against Utah.

I guess they are just a little more confident facing them maybe.

Couldn't get myself to put anything more than a unit down on it

+36 or more units for the season betting arguably the toughest sport to cap?

Serious bow and tip of the cap LC. You are a multi-sport winner! 

Thank you for posting and GLTA.

I think that sacaramento kings could care less about this game (also?) so I personally can't follow this for that unit amount but will take the bait for 1u. Hope you win this "big" one an_cheers

I'm liking the Nets -5.5......the Heat travelling all night, b2b after the big emotional DW blowout and being eliminated in the process?  Total disinterest by Miami.  

 

BOL LC....thanks for the reg season.

Sorry mate missed this question, klay and Durant were questionable all day. Once they were announced in it went up but the rest of the starters were always gonna be out.

Also just a reminder once a play is locked in I always stick with it
