Atlanta Hawks vs Cleveland Cavaliers Cleveland Cavaliers

5* Game 1 BEST BET on Cavs -11.5
Thanks to the Lakers not showing up last night, the Cavs will be ready here in Game 1 as they are not about to let the Hawks take them by storm. Atlanta has struggled on the road all season while the Cavs are 41-2 at home with a 14.4 point margin of victory. We saw Atlanta lose 3 games by double digit margins in its first round series against a Heat team that is far less explosive on offense and far inferior on defense than the Cavs. Cleveland is 7-0 ATS in home games off a road win by 10 points or more this season, winning in these spots by an average score of 109.0 to 85.7, 7-0 ATS after 4 straight wins by 10 points or more this season, winning in these spots by an average score of 105.4 to 87.1, and 16-1 ATS after leading their last 3 games by 5+ points at the half this season, winning by an average score of 103.1 to 86.7 in these spots. The Hawks are also 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog of 11.0 or greater. Lay the points.

Dallas Mavericks vs Denver Nuggets Denver Nuggets

3* Game 2 SMASH on Nuggets -6.5
Denver is playing the best ball in the Western Conference right now and I don't see the Mavs slowing them down tonight. The only question about this Denver team in the past was its defense and the Nuggets are yet to allow an opponent over 95 points in the postseason. Denver is 9-1 ATS as a home favorite of 6.5 to 9 points this season, winning these games by an average score of 112.6 to 97.3. The Nuggets have now won 6 straight over Dallas and it is apparent that the Mavs don't match up very well against them. The Mavericks are 1-8 ATS in the last 9 meetings. The Nuggets are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 playoff games as a favorite of 5.0-10.5 and 8-0 ATS in their last 8 vs. the NBA Southwest. Bet Denver.

Philadelphia Phillies vs St. Louis Cardinals St. Louis Cardinals

3* MLB Bounce Back BLOWOUT on Cardinals -120
Off back-to-back defeats, I'll back the Cards tonight in this bounce back spot behind ace Adam Wainwright, who is 3-0 with a 2.76 ERA on the season and 2-0 when starting against Philly with an ERA of 1.29 in his career. The Cardinal stick should have an edge against Myers who comes in with an ERA approaching 5.00. The Cardinals are 22-5 in Wainwrights last 27 starts vs. a team with a winning record, 11-1 in Wainwrights last 12 starts as a home favorite of -110 to -150, and 11-1 in their last 12 games as a home favorite of -110 to -150 period. Take the Red Birds!

Colorado Rockies (-112) over San Diego Padres

Colorado Rockies starter Aaron Cook has had loads of success against the San Diego Padres. He’s 12-4 with a 2.80 ERA lifetime against San Diego and at Petco Park, Cook is an astounding 5-1 with a 1.69 ERA. His opponent is Josh Geer who earned his first Major League victory over the Rockies last year. This could be a game where both pitchers pitch well and the game is decided by the bullpens. If so, I don’t know if that is good or bad for the outcome since both ‘pens have been inconsistent with the exception of Padres closer Heath Bell. It doesn’t deter me from selecting the Rockies and making them BDD’s BBB for Tuesday
