triple-dime bet 926 TAM -1.5 (-130) Bodog vs 925 KAN
Analysis: Stan is Betting TAMPA BAY -1.5 RUNS today. After being held to 2 runs yesterday Stan expects theTampa Bay Bats to beÅ busy today. Price is razor sharp right now and should dominate the Royals. Stan has Tampa Bay winning by 3 or more runs today so let's lay the -1.5 Runs here. TAKE TAMPA BAY -1.5 RUNS as STAN'S TRIPLE DIME WISE GUY GAME and make them a TRIPLE DIME PLAY.
4 Unit Play.* #702.* Take the Cleveland Cavaliers -7.5 over the Boston Celtics (Saturday @ 8:05pm est).* This is what Cleveland has been waiting for.* For so long, the Cavs have been wanting to get to this stage and slowly but surely, they have done so.* You have to give this team a lot of credit.* They have worked hard, made the right moves in the off-season, brought in some high caliber help such as Jamison and Shaq, and now look to take care of business here against the Celtics.* Don't get me wrong, the C's are good.* But, the matchup between these two teams has always gone back and forth.* The Celtics beat this team 117-113 in their last ballgame, and that sets up for a nice revenge game today in the opening round.* Yes, it seems nuts giving a team like the Celtics 7.5 points, but bear in mind, that when 68% of the public jumps on a dog, that's nuts as well.* Its bad enough when the public jumps all over a favorite, but from my experience of tracking numbers, its even worse when 68% of the public jumps on the underdog.* The Celtics +7.5 seems too easy right!* Not exactly.* Again, the Cavs have been waiting for this game, they are more than ready to match wits against the teams that they have put all their time, effort and finances toward.* This team will look to make a statement at home today.* The Celtics are 4-13 ATS in their conference semifinal games and the Cavs are 17-5-1 ATS in their last 23 conference semifinal games.
2 Star Selection
CLEVELAND (-7) over Boston
01-May-10 05:05 PM Pacific Time
Cleveland is 6-2 ATS in game 1 of a playoff series at home and the Cavalier apply to a very good 21-2 ATS game 1 situation. Boston played well in their series against Miami, but they'll have their hands full with a team that is more than just one superstar player. The Cavs' superstar, LeBron James, has a minor elbow injury that adds some risk to this play, but I'll still take the Cavs given the strong situation and their 25-9-1 ATS record in playoff games the last 4 seasons against sub-.700 teams (6-1 ATS in game 1). My ratings favor Cleveland by 7 1/2 points (if LeBron is not affected by his elbow), so the line on this game is fair, and I'll take Cleveland in a 2-Star Best Bet at -8 points or less.
