NBA | Pacers vs Raptors
Play on: Raptors +1 -110 at Mirage

1* NBA - Pacers/Raptors FREE PICK on Raptors +1
Wednesday's Free NBA Pick is on the Toronto Raptors as a 1-point home dog against the Indiana Pacers. I just don't think the Pacers warrant being a road favorite in this game. Both of these teams are 1-3 SU and 1-3 ATS. Both teams lone win has come against a playoff contender with Indiana beating Miami 102-91 at home and Toronto beating Boston 115-83 on the road. I just think the home court here is a bigger factor than this number would lead on. I also don't love the spot for Indiana on the road after two big home games against the Heat and Bucks. Play the Raptors +1!

NBA | Hawks vs Pelicans
Play on: OVER 219 -108

Wednesday NBA Free play. My selection is on the 'over' between Atlanta and New Orleans at 7:40 pm et on Wednesday.
The Pelicans are coming off consecutive (relatively) low-scoring games but both of those came against the T'Wolves. Here against the Hawks, back at home, I think the Pelicans know they're going to need to push the tempo offensively in order to have a shot at the victory. This has typically been a favorable spot for New Orleans as it checks in averaging a whopping 123.9 points, good for an average total of 242.2 points when playing at home off an outright underdog victory over the last 2+ seasons. The 'over' has gone a perfect 13-0 in that situation. The 'over' is also 22-10 when the Pelicans come off two losses in their last three games over the last two seasons, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of 231.4 points. The Hawks enter this one off their strongest offensive performance to date as they scored 122 points on better than 51% shooting against the Pistons on Monday night. I look for them to push the pace after being held to just 95 points in a stunning loss to the Cavs in their first road game this season. Finally, I'll point out that this was a high-scoring matchup last season, with the two meetings producing 229 and 230 total points. Take the over.

MLB | ATL vs HOU
Play on: OVER 8½ -110

FREE PICK: Braves/Astros OVER 8.5
RATING: 30*
ROT#: 953/954
I like the OVER 8.5 in Game 2 of the World Series between the Braves and Astros. These two teams combined for 8 runs in Game 1 and that was with the two teams only scoring 3 runs after the 3rd inning.
The one downside for Atlanta in that win, was starter Charlie Morton was only able to go 2 1/3 innings after suffering a broken leg. That's not only a big loss going forward in the series, but now their bullpen is now behind the 8-ball after having to go 6 2/3 innings.
That could be a problem with Atlanta sending out Max Fried. He had a chance to close out that Dodgers series in Game 5 in LA and instead gave up 5 runs on 8 hits (2 HR) in 4 2/3 innings of a 11-2 loss.
Last night was also just the second time in the series that the Astros failed to score at least 5 runs. They just didn't get the timely hits, as they left 9 guys on base.
As for the Braves offense, they just keep finding ways to put up runs and it's hard to not like them against Houston's Jose Urquidy, who in his only postseason start was a dud. Urquidy got the ball in Game 3 against the Red Sox and gave up 6 runs in 1 2/3 innings of a 12-3 loss. Give me the OVER 8.5!

Play on: Wolves +6½ -110 at SC Consensus

Rocketman Sports FREE NBA play Wednesday 10-27-21
Minnesota @ Milwaukee (8:10 PM EST)
Play On: Minnesota +6 1/2
The Minnesota Timberwolves travel to Milwaukee to take on the Bucks on Wednesday night. Minnesota is 2-1 SU overall this year while Milwaukee comes in with a 3-1 SU overall record on the season. Minnesota is 5-1-1 ATS last 7 road games. Minnesota is 12-4-1 ATS last 17 games after a SU loss. Brook Lopez and Jrue Holiday are both out for the Bucks tonight. Public is all over the Bucks in this one of course but the line has dropped. Smart money is on the Wolves here and we'll gladly fade the public as well. We'll recommend a small play on Minnesota tonight! Thanks and good luck, Rocky

NBA | Wolves vs Bucks
Play on: Bucks -6 -110 at Caesars

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Milwaukee Bucks -6
There has been no championship hangover for the Milwaukee Bucks. They are 3-1 SU & 3-1 ATS this season with all three wins coming by double-digits against some quality teams in the Nets, Spurs on the road and Pacers on the road. They did lose on the road to the Heat, who are one of the best teams in the NBA. Now they face the weakest opponent they have yet in the Minnesota Timberwolves. And their domination of the Timberwolves should continue tonight. The Bucks are 6-0 SU in the last six meetings, winning five of them by 12 points or more. That includes their two wins last season by 25 and 27 points over Minnesota. Give me the Bucks.

NHL | Flyers vs Oilers
Play on: OVER 6½ -125

Both of these teams have scored goals in a big way. Both are well rested. Koskinen is in the net for the Oilers and he has been sharp. Flyers' goaltender Hart appears to have improved after a rough time last year, but I am not a believer yet. Ryan Ellis is still missing on defense.
The Oilers still allow a ton of shots, and the Flyers have been sharpshooters this year. The Oilers are a very confident team at 5-0, and McDavid and Draisaitl are clicking on all cylinders, as usual, but the Oilers’ offense is a little more diverse than in past years.. There is little doubt that the Oilers will score, but unless they play a better brand of defense, there is little doubt they will be scored upon. Take the high set total to go even higher.

NBA | Kings vs Suns
Play on: OVER 223½ -110

Jack's Free Pick Wednesday: Kings/Suns OVER 223.5
The Sacramento Kings are built for OVERS. They were a good offensive team last year when healthy like they are now. And they were one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA, which is the case for them again this season.
The Kings are playing at the 8th-fastest pace in the NBA thus far this season. They currently rank 26th in defensive efficiency and are giving up 111.7 points per 100 possessions. They are in the middle of the pack in offensive efficiency.
The Phoenix Suns just played a team similar to the Kings in the Portland Trail Blazers and it resulted in a shootout. They lost 105-134 for 239 combined points. The last time these teams met last season the total was 235 and they combined for 236 points. I think we are getting a discount here with this 223.5-point total. Bet the OVER in this game Wednesday.

NBA | Grizzlies vs Blazers
Play on: Blazers -2 -110 at pinnacle

Dave's Wednesday Free Play:
1* on Portland Trail Blazers -2
The Key: The Portland Trail Blazers will be hungry for a victory tonight after a 1-2 start. That one win was mighty impressive as they crushed the defending Western Conference champion Phoenix Suns 134-105 at home. And I think they give that kind of effort here against the Memphis Grizzlies. Bets against underdogs who are coming off a close road loss by 3 points or less and who also won between 45% or 55% of their games last year are 27-6 ATS since 1996. Take Portland.

NBA | Grizzlies vs Blazers
Play on: Blazers -130 at Mirage

Grizzlies vs Blazers Free Pick October 27, 2021
Portland has only one win on the season, but I think they'll come out with a chip on their shoulder here after getting schooled and humiliated by the Clippers in a 30 point loss in LA a couple of days ago. I expect a lot from Dame Lillard in particular after him missing all eight of his 3-point attempts versus the Clippers.
The Blazers have been a mess defensively allowing 115.0 points per game, but Memphis is even worse with 118.7 points allowed on average.
Memphis has covered the spread in three straight games, but I don't think the visitors are getting enough points in this one.
Free pick on Portland Trail Blazers.
