3-Unit Play. #709. Take New Orleans Pelicans +11 over Golden State Warriors (Tuesday @ 10:35pm est)
We roll with the Pelicans here as we are aware that Curry will be back this game and we are aware that each time he comes back from injury he averages around 28 to 30 points per game. Having said, will the Pelicans really shoot as bad as they did in game 1 and also have a lapse in defense like they did in Game 1? This is a team that did beat GS at GS earlier this year when they needed a must win game to get into the playoffs and this is the same situation. This is a must win for them. New Orleans stars did not play well last game and they likely play much better here. Holliday was just 4/14 from the field and Davis was 9/20 scoring just 21 points while the team shot 32% from 3 point land. The Pelicans only went to the free throw line 11 times versus Golden State's 32 times as well which was pointed out by several Pelican players. Look for a highly motivated Davis, Holliday, Mirtoic (only 9 points) and Pelican team overall especially on the defensive end to bounce-back. Remember this team was out rebounded by +15 as well and New Orleans is 9th in the league in opposing field goal percentage and opposing 3 point percentage and that improves today. Pelicans bounce-back today as they are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games and the Warriors are 2-8 ATS after an ATS win their last game.
7-Unit Play. #974. Take Minnesota Twins -135 over Toronto Bluejays (Tuesday @ 8:10pm est) (The line is dropping fast as the public is on Toronto, wait on this line until the evening if you can, already -130 at BetOnline)
Let's make it 6 in a row (10-2 run) today and take a moment and sign up for the entire season and save money because we are already 22-12 (62%) for the Season at +$4233 and we are on pace to eclipse +$16,255 (our best season ever in any sport in MLB 2015). We will be relentless on this streak. We roll with Minneosta here in a nice spot against Toronto as it is now or never for Minnesota with their superstar youngster joining the team on Wednesday. But, today, this moment, they need a big win to turn around what has been a very slow start to the season. What better way than to have Gibson on the mound. Remember, Gibson has a 3.33 era this year and has been a strong bright spot for Minnesota. He gave up just 1 hit to a powerful Yankees lineup in 6 innings and had 10 strikeouts. He also gave up 3 walks in that game which we like because typically anything above 2 walks he has a bounce-back in control. Sure, he had bad starts against Tampa Bay and Houston, but he also held Seattle and Tampa Bay to 1 and 0 runs. As his team needs him to step up in a big way today, he likely does it at home. Why else would a 9 win team be favored over the 16 win team? Think about it. You have a pitcher in Estrada who is now in his mid 30's and has had 3 straight non-quality starts and it is a sight for sore eyes for the Twins hitters. He has given up 14 runs in 14 innings, 4 homeruns in his last 2 starts and at least 1 homerun in 8 of his last 9 starts. He has given up 15 hits in 10 innings and 17 baserunners in totals if you include walks in those 2 starts. The Twins
