Quite a few rainouts for MLB, especially in the Midwest and East.

We have to switch to NBA anyway, so no better time than the present.

NBA May 9, 2021 -- Playoff Prep

During playoff prep, many teams are resting starters, so there are quite a few opportunities for favorites to not cover the spread, and to sometimes lose outright. The following are predictions based on the aforementioned criteria:

BOS +1
BOS moneyline

NOP +4
DET +9
OKC +9.5



Good luck to all.

1-4 is not a good start. It is horrible, in fact, but the way most games transpired proved the FOUNDATION of my premise to my satisfaction. BOS, for example, had an EXCELLENT second half, but this couldn't entirely erase the huge deficit they faced. Well, then there was OKC, who just were embarrassed the whole game.

Excellent results. Two points away from a straight-up win for WAS.

TOR +11.5
CHI +5.5
CHI moneyline

11.5 is a huge number of course, but Toronto's top 4 players have already been ruled out and their 5th best player may not play either (and if he does will be on a serious minutes restriction since he's missed a bunch of games in a row and likely isn't in top game shape).

I **think** the Clippers still have something to play for too that matters in terms of seeding, and it looks like only Ibaka is out for them so they'll be mostly at full strength.

The Raptors starting lineup normally:
Lowry
Van Vleet
Siakam
Anunoby
Boucher

Tonight most likely:
Flynn
Trent
Birch
Watanabe
Johnson


That's a pretty monstrous difference...
 
mkess101 warned me that they had a clown show scheduled in Toronto.

"They can't even get within eleven (11) points? Damn."--Black Paladin

NY Knicks played great, and almost won outright, but lost by two in OT.

Chicago got smacked in the first quarter, and they didn't start to get their shit halfway together until the fourth, but time ran out. If they played a fifth quarter, Da Bulls would have got that ass, let me tell you.

TOR +11.5
CHI +5.5
CHI moneyline

NY +5.5
 
NBA May 12, 2021 -- Playoff Prep

Only one play fits the previously-mentioned criteria today.

HOU +13.5

Additionally, the situation for LAL is that they just were in a war the previous night against NY.

That is how it's SUPPOSED TO GO. Stayed in the money the whole game, and almost won outright.
