I got a -5.5 line for the RB vs Air game but decided to count it as a loss right there. Anyway, Welcoat is seriously struggling as to the Tigers who finally regained composure after the win over Red Bull. Coca-Cola Tigers seem to have no problem playing confidently in Ynares Center. Welcoat loses to Coca-Cola by a bucket in their last meeting way back in the 9th of April and this should be another revenge game for Welcoat but I don't see one going their way right now. Jason Dixon of the Tigers will be having a field day late this afternoon as Welcoat struggles when playing teams with dominant big man in the current conference. Donald Copeland will more or less be used to the feel of playing in the PBA and he should be more productive entering this game. I see a good matchup between him and Santee here tonight. I see the Tigers to be the favorites here. Again, if they are set as a favorite of 4.5 or more points this will be a no play. The second game is rather tough to get a winner. But I'll be trying out the trend I see here. I'll go with Purefoods plus or minus the spread. Alaska has been red hot and it will end tonight. After having almost a one month of losing they'd turned it around with a 3 game win streak. Streaking to a 4th win in the PBA is less likely to happen. Look for a similar game from the Giants when they defeated the Aces in Bohol by 10. It should happen here tonight.
