Washington @ Chicago 8:00 PM EST
Play On: 4* Washington +4 1/2
The Washington Wizards travel to Chicago to take on the Bulls on Tuesday night. Washington is 47-39 SU overall this year while Chicago comes in with a 49-37 SU overall record on the season. Washington holds a 3-1 advantage heading into Game 5 of this playoff series and could eliminate the Bulls with a win here tonight. Washington is 4-1 last 5 games overall scoring 103.2 points per game. Washington has actually won 7 of their last 8 games overall. Washington is 6-1 ATS at Chicago the past 3 years. We’ll play Washington for 4 units tonight! Thanks and good luck, Rocky
This game is a rematch of a pitching duel last week as the Marlins Jose Fernandez beat Alex Wood and the Atlanta Braves 1-0 in Atlanta. We know that Fernandez has been really good, especially at Marlins Park, but we think the Braves are motivated to give Wood some more offense here in the rematch. Wood has also been really good this season with a 2-3 record but solid 1.54 ERA. The Braves are winners of four straight games and we think they make it 5 here tonight in what looks to be a very good game. The Sharps say...
Memphis Grizzlies at OKC Thunder (-7) 9:00 ET NBA TV
4% Memphis (+7)
4% Memphis (SERIES) +285
OKC dominated the first half of Game 1 in this series. Since that time, Memphis has controlled the pace of the game, proving they are the equal of the Thunder. Now, these two teams, who know each other well, face off in Game 5 of a series tied at 2, after OKC squeezed a narrow 92-89 victory at Memphis on Saturday. That victory came courtesy of Reggie Jackson, a reserve who has scored 15 total points in the 3 previous games. But on Saturday, Jackson knocked down 32 on 11/16 shooting. OKC needed every one after blowing a 64-50 late 3rd quarter lead. That 32 points exceeded the combined total of leading OKC scorers, Durant and Westbrook, who combined for just 30 points on 11-45 shooting, including 2-13 from the arc. That makes the Thunder a combined 26 for 102 (25%) from tripleville for the series. Unless those numbers substantially improve, it is doubtful that OKC will either get their preferred pace or extend victory by any margin. Following the 11-13 SU start by Memphis, the Grizz have gone 41-21 SU. In that timeframe, they are recently 16-3 SU and 14-7 ATS following those 21 defeats. With Gasol and Randolph keying a powerful inside-out offense, there is no reason why the Grizz cannot remain competitive again tonight. Memphis led this series 2 games to 1before the OKC survival on Saturday. Note that any NBA road team, who led the series 2 games to 1, has won the 7 game series 82% of the time. At a value price of +285, we must consider Memphis to be a 10* Top Play in the series.
