Boston @ Chicago
Play: 3* Chicago -3

I don't think there is any way that Perkins will have the kind of game he had last game. With Garnett and Powe still out for the Celtics, the Bulls should be able to take Game 6 here tonight. Chicago is 15-4 ATS this year when playing against a team with a winning record in the 2nd half of the season. Chicago is 17-8 SU at home vs Boston since 1996. Celtics are 3-10-1 ATS in their last 14 games vs. a team with a losing SU record. Celtics are 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 vs. NBA Central. Bulls are 7-1-1 ATS in their last 9 after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game. Bulls are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 Conference Quarterfinals games. Bulls are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning SU record. Bulls are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 when their opponent allows 100 points or more in their previous game. Bulls are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game. Bulls are 13-4-1 ATS in their last 18 games following a SU loss. We'll play Chicago for 3 units tonight!


Orlando @ Philadelphia
Play: 3* Philadelphia -4

Dwight Howard appears to be suspended and out for this game here tonight. Throw in Courtney Lee to the injured list and of course they are still without Jameer Nelson and his 16.7 points per game. The Magic will be missing 45.7 points per game tonight for this one. Magic are 2-5-1 ATS in their last 8 playoff games as an underdog of 5.0-10.5. Magic are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Conference Quarterfinals games. Magic are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a SU win. Magic are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 vs. Eastern Conference. Magic are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games overall. Magic are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a losing SU record. Magic are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 vs. NBA Atlantic. Magic are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games. Magic are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. 76ers are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 vs. NBA Southeast. 76ers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning SU record. 76ers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Conference Quarterfinals games. 76ers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. 76ers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall. 76ers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vs. Eastern Conference. 76ers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a SU loss of more than 10 points. Magic are 1-4 ATS in the last 5 meetings. We'll play Philadelphia for 3 units tonight!

5-Star MLB Rivalry Wipeout!

BOSTON RED SOX VS TAMPA BAY RAYS
Take: BOSTON RED SOX

Tampa Bay went from 2008 AL Champs to last place thus far in the AL East. The main problem is an offense that ranks 13th in batting and 9th in runs scored while striking out too often. Speaking of strikeouts, they face Boston ace Josh Beckett, who has fanned 23 in 24 innings. He is 6-3 with a 2.98 ERA against Tampa Bay, and faced them already this season, fanning 10 in 7 innings (2 hits allowed) in a victory. Rays righty Matt Garza has struggled, at 1-2 with a 4.97 ERA. He's walked 14 in 24 innings and faces a super-patient Boston offense that loves to draw free passes and clog the bases. Boston's offense is red-hot, as well. Play the Red Sox.


20-Star High Roller NBA Powerhouse

PORTLAND TRAILBLAZERS VS HOUSTON ROCKETS
Take: HOUSTON ROCKETS

Houston has been in command of this series, after since spanking the Blazers on the road in Game 1. The last two games here they held Portland to 83 and 88 points, allowing 42% and 45% shooting. They played a physical style that knocked the young Blazers off their game. They ran out of gas in Game 5, though they turned an 11-point deficit midway through the third quarter into a four-point lead early in the fourth. Now coming home they know this is the game to win, as Houston doesn't want to head out on the road for Game 7. Houston is 35-8 at home, while Portland is 20-23 on the road. Look for a monster, physical effort by the home team...and the series to be over. Play the Rockets.

Chicago Blackhawks vs. Vancouver Canucks
Pick: Chicago Blackhawks +135

Ai Simulator 7* graded play on Chicago as they face Vancouver. Vancouver relies on a bruising style of play, but they had far too many penalties in their first round series. The Blackhawks have the second best playoff power play, with seven goals on 24 chances. Vancouver killed off 23 of 24 penalties including too long 5 on 3‘s, but they will not be nearly as successful in this series. Vancouver must play a fine line between aggressive play and getting penalized for that aggressive play. That does not instill confidence in any team having to choose while the game is underway. Supporting this graded play is a strong system that has posted a 54-35 mark making 27.6 units since 2003. Play on any team against the money line after successfully covering the spread in 2 or more consecutive games facing an opponent after successfully covering the spread in 5 or more consecutive games. Chicago is 14-5 against the money line (+10.9 Units) in road games against poor defensive teams allowing >=29 shots on goal and converting >=17% power plays in the 2nd half of the year over the last 3 seasons. Vancouver is just 4-9 against the money line (-12.2 Units) in home games against mistake free teams where the opponents average <=4 power plays/game in the 2nd half of the year over the last 2 seasons. Take Chicago.

Stephen Nover

Boston at Chicago
Play: Chicago -3

The Bulls are confident, cocky and steaming mad about Rojan Rondo's hard foul on Brad Miller at the end of Tuesday's game that wasn't called a flagrant foul.The Celtics have been leaning more heavy on their starters than the Bulls. Chicago's bench has outscored Boston's reserves nearly double, 125-63.The strain of three overtime games and being on the road should prove too much for the taxed Celtics in this situation with Chicago being in a must-win spot.The Bulls are guard-oriented so they can take advantage of the situation. Boston's defense isn't as good without Kevin Garnett and James Posey, who starred for the Celtics in last year's playoff.

Chip Chirimbes

Orlando at Philadelphia
Play: Orlando +5.5

This is the spot where the Orlando Magic supporting cast have to step forward and establish true professionalism. With Dwight Howard the NBA's defensive player of the year the Magic have gone from a 4.5 point favorite to a 5 point underdog, a hugh swing. Orlando keeps it closer than most might think. Take MAGIC!

Mark Franco

Portland at Houston
Pick: Houston -4.5

The Blazers have lost 12 of their last 13 games at Houston and 10 of their last 11 road playoff games overall. The Rockets have won eight straight home games, but are still trying to advance out of the first round for the first time since 1997 and will this season without T. Mac.The Rockets will show they are too tough at home to let an opportunity to close out a young Blazers team slip away. The Rockets have the Lakers in waiting and will not want to risk traveling back to Portland for a game seven.
