For Wednesday, 2000♦ Double-Your-Wager winner is Golden State over Cleveland. At 8:00 am eastern time, the Warriors are priced right around a pick both in Vegas and offshore.
Used them in Game 1 for a 2000♦ winner, and again in Game 2 for another 2000♦ winner. I am not about to jump ship here in Game 3 just because of a venue change.
Of course there will be conspiracy theorists that say the NBA needs this to be a longer series for the ratings, but I am of the opinion that we are witnessing one of the best teams in NBA history, and after getting taken to the limit by the Thunder, they want to end this series ASAP.
Play Golden State here on Wednesday.
The Warriors "Splash Brothers" have not yet played their "A-Game", as Curry hasn't topped 18 points in either game, and Thompson hasn't topped 17 points in either game, yet the Dubs have won by 15 and 33 points!
The reason? The matchups ALL favor Golden State, and Steve Kerr's set plays have created so many defensive breakdowns from the Cavaliers, that it's just too much for Cleveland to overcome.
I must admit, I expected this series to be a lot closer than it has been, and while all the Warriors did was "hold serve" at home, its the way they won those 2 games that leads me to believe that the hole for the Cavs is about to become 0-3.
Take Golden State again as we cash in another 2000♦ winner.

3 Unit Play Take #918 Texas -150 over Houston (8:05pm est):
Texas starter Yu Darvish looks to be better than he was before his injury which makes him underrated right now. He's throwing the much harder than before and has faced two of the top offenses since coming back. The Rangers are rolling with 8 straight wins over Houston this season and sport an eye popping 23-9 home record this season.
Houston's starter Doug Fister gets the nod here and looks like he's pitched better than expected of late but I'm not buying into that much as the right-hander doesn't get enough swing and misses and is overvalued.
Take Texas here. Big 7 unit NBA GOTM tonight you don't want to miss. Join the winning as I go for my 12th straight winning sports betting selection.
4-Unit Play. Take #916 Baltimore (-140) over Kansas City (7:05 p.m., Wednesday, June 8)
Baltimore hit four home runs in yesterday's game but the real fireworks came when there was a bench clearing brawl in the 5th inning after Yordano Ventura plunked Manny Machado with a 99 mph fastball to his lower back. I don't think there will be any carry over from last night's game but I think Baltimore gets the win tonight and completes a 3 game sweep of the reeling Royals. Baltimore has averaged over 6 runs per game while going 6-3 on their current home stand that will end tonight. Chris Tillman hasn't lost a start at home this year as he is 5-0 with a 2.98 ERA and Baltimore has gone 10-2 in his 12 starts this year. Edinson Volquez will have the ball for Kansas City and he has struggled on the road this season going 2-3 with a 6.67 ERA. Volquez is 2-5 in his last eight starts and the two wins came against two of the worst teams in baseball against the Twins and Braves. Kansas City hasn't been a very good road team all year and they are 0-7 in their last 7 road games versus a team with a winning record. While Baltimore has won four of the last five meeting between these two teams in Baltimore and they are 4-1 in their last 5 games versus a right handed starter. I think the Orioles break out the brooms tonight and get the job done and pick up the win.
Best of Luck -
3-Unit Play. Take Chicago Cubs -1.5 -110 over Philadelphia (Wednesday, June 8th at 1:05 p.m.)
This is a great spot to play the Cubs on the run line. Lackey has been absolutely rock solid since the weather has warmed up and Velasquez has went in the opposite direction. The Cubs pounded Velasquez back on May 29th. He pitched just 4.2 innings allowing 9 hits and 7 earned runs at Wrigley Field. He was really good early in the year but seems to have lost his way. Chicago has depth and they can really put up hits and runs in bunches. This is a great matchup for them offensively. Lackey has really turned it on since opening with a rough April. He has a 1.83 era in his last seven starts. It's the rubber game of this series and I look for the Cubs to have some really good at bats vs. a guy they just raked a little over a week ago. This one sets up great for a run line play.
Take Chicago -1.5
