Re: 5-18-10

The Duke's Sports

Boston Under (189) for 3 Units

This series has gone 1-8 O/U in its last 9 games and value remains with the "under". In Game 1, the Celtics shot a healthy 45% from the field, including 20 points on fast breaks; they connected on 43% from beyond the arc and made 77% of their free throws - healthy shooting numbers. On the other hand, the Magic shot a respectable 42% from the floor, made 73% of free throws, but fell flat from the perimeter at 23%. By comparison, these shooting percentages were similar to Game 1 of the Suns/Lakers Western Conference Finals yesterday. And we know that game soared over the posted total; however, the Suns /Lakers got 206 shots off compared to just 187 shots off by the Celtics/Magic. And both teams went to the charity stripe in similar fashion - low 50s. Point being that the Celtics/Magic series is at a much slower pace and should slow down even more tonight; after all, the Magic doesn't take lightly the 20 fast break points given up on their home floor. The Magic are 18-40 O/U vs a team with a winning % above .600. Boston is 2-8 O/U in the Conference Finals. "Under" the call.

Scott Rickenbach’s


Players NHL *8* Tuesday UNDER in Philly on 18 May
Scott Rickenbach’s NHL 8* (Regular Play) UNDER the total in Philadelphia vs Montreal @ 7:05 PM ET – RATING SYSTEM: Plays range from 6* on up to 10* so this includes 7* and 8* picks as well. 6*, 7*, 8*: most common play ratings with a 9* being a Top Play! 10* plays are a step above a 9* Top Play. The *10* is Scott's highest rated selection!

The first game between these teams snuck over the total but, keep in mind, Montreal was shutout and the Flyers only had 25 shots on goal in the entire game. In other words, it was somewhat of a “fortunate” over and we feel that is giving us some line value with the under here in Game Two. For one thing, we fully expect the Canadiens to tighten things up in goal after that horrific performance on Sunday. Note that Jaroslav Halak was absolutely a key performer in goal for the Habs when they rallied to upset the Capitals in the first round and the Penguins in the second round. Also, Montreal is 15-9 to the under this season when they are off of a game where they allowed four goals or more. Additionally, the Canadiens are 4-2 to the under this season when they are trailing in a playoff series. Also, though you might expect their offense to bounce back after being shutout on Sunday, note that Montreal is 12-7 to the under this season when they were held to one goal or less in their prior game.

As for the Flyers, will their offensive “flurry” continue after their huge performance in Game One? The odds are against it. Note that Philadelphia is 18-12 to the under this season when they are off of a game where they scored four goals or more. Also, Flyers goalie Michael Leighton has simply been superb since taking over for the injured Brian Boucher in Game Five of the Flyers series with the Bruins. Note that Leighton has a 1.11 GAA so far in this postseason and he is a stellar 9-2 in all his games in Philly this season. Look for another strong performance from the Flyers netminder and look for the Canadiens netminder to get right back on track. Halak is 4-0 and has allowed a total of just 7 goals the last four times he’s lost in these playoffs. In other words, in the game following a loss, Halak and his Habs teammates have absolutely beared down and come up with a strong effort and we expect no less here. The end result should be a tight-checking, low-scoring game here. Play UNDER the total in Philadelphia as an *8* Regular Play selection.




Players NBA *8* Tuesday OVER in Orlando on 18 May
Scott Rickenbach’s NBA 8* (Regular Play) OVER the total in Orlando vs Boston @ 8:35 PM ET – RATING SYSTEM: Plays range from 6* on up to 10* so this includes 7* and 8* picks as well. 6*, 7*, 8*: most common play ratings with a 9* being a Top Play! 10* plays are a step above a 9* Top Play. The *10* is Scott's highest rated selection!

The first game in this series stayed under the total but the teams combined for 107 points in the 2nd half. Don’t be surprised if some of that “pacing” carries over to this 2nd game in the series. Also, we expect the Magic to shoot much better and push the tempo much more than they did in Game One when they were held to just 41.6% from the field. Also, the 22.7% that the Magic shot from three point land in Game One is highly unlikely to be repeated. Orlando is known for knocking down their threes and this is especially true at home. It seems like there was some rust from the Magic in Game One (as we expected – we played Boston) and Orlando is likely to shoot much better in Game Two. Also, the Magic did grab 15 offensive rebounds on Sunday and those second chance scoring opportunities are going to start to pile up in Game Two as a result of Orlando’s aggression on the glass. The Magic are fired up and ready to respond after losing Game One and, recent history shows, that is likely to result in an over. The Magic are 7-4 to the over this season when they are revenging a home loss. Also, Orlando was 5-1 to the over in the conference finals before Sunday’s game stayed under the total.

As for the Celtics, they are 3-1 to the over this season, and 70-48 to the over since 1996, when they are installed as a road dog of 6.5 to 9 points! Orlando is going to respond here and, while the Celtics defense is solid, Boston is going to face a flurry of shots as the Magic know that they must “force the pace” if they’re going to even this series up at a game apiece. The Magic found out in the first half of Game One that they can’t afford to allow Boston to slow things down, dictate the pace, and turn the match-up into a half-court game. The Magic have to run and create opportunities in transition as they know that is the best way to give this Celtics defense some match-up problems. Look for a huge effort from the home team in this one but, note that Boston has averaged 99 points per game in their last 11 games in this post-season. Rajon Rondo has proven to be a very valuable asset and this has added to the Celtics Big Three of Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett, and Paul Pierce. That means another big offensive performance is on tap from the Celtics here and, with a faster pace being played all the way through game two (unlike game one where the pace didn’t quicken until the second half) this one is destined to fly over the total. Play OVER the total in Orlando as an *8* Regular Play selection

ASA MLB PICK - Tuesday, May 18 - Atlanta Braves

ASA MLB PICK - 3* Atlanta (Medlen) -105 vs. NY Mets (Santana), Tuesday at 6:10 PM CST

One MLB PICK TONIGHT. There are no day games on Wednesday so we'll have you check back at 4:00 PM CST on Wednesday.

Johan Santana is often considered one of the better pitchers in baseball but so far this season has not looked the part. His road ERA this season is 5.09 and while that number is inflated based on one awful outing in Philadelphia he has been far less dominant overall than expected. His strikeout numbers are down a bit from his normal averages and his ERA in night games in 5.82. While Santana still has to be considered a quality pitcher he is not living up to his valuation, and the Mets lineup is often not there to support him.



New York enters this game with a 5-12 road record yet will play as favorites in this match-up due to the valuation of Santana. While the general public might view this match-up as a cheap price on Santana, in reality it is a very favorable price to take the Braves. Atlanta is 10-6 at home and after early season struggles on offense The Braves are putting it all together. In the last nine games Atlanta has scored 57 runs and the wins are piling up as the team has climbed back into the NL East picture. In home games the Braves are hitting .270 compared with the Mets hitting just .218 in road games this season.



While the Mets swept the first series between these teams in 2010, the Braves dominated the series last season. Atlanta closed 2009 having won eight consecutive games against the Mets and the Braves beat Santana twice last season. The Mets won all three games in the first series between the teams in New York but the Mets scored just nine runs in those three games. The Mets are hitting just .244 against right-handed pitching in the last ten games and New York entered this series having lost seven of the previous eight games despite being favored here.



Kris Medlen is a highly regarded young pitcher for Atlanta and while he has made just one start this season he has pitched extremely well in mainly a relief role. Medlen has struck out 20 while walking just three and his ERA is 2.35. The Atlanta bullpen has performed admirably this season and this should be a good situation for the Braves to bounce back after a narrow loss on Monday. New York had just five hits last night but still managed to win as Atlanta burned scoring chances by hitting into three double plays.

Stan Sharp | MLB Money Line Tue, 05/18/10 - 7:05 PM ƒŠ

double-dime bet 975 KAN (-127) Bodog vs 976 BAL
Analysis: Stan is Betting KANSAS CITY today. Stan notes that there are 2 Keys factors to making the KC his AL Game of the Week. First the Royals are on a mini winning streak winning 4 of the last 5 games since firing the manager last week. Second Cy Young Winner Zack Greinke finally Won his first game of the 2010 season and should put together another win here. Stan also notes that Baltimore is struggling for runs at the moment scoring 3 runs or less in 3 stra€ight games. TAKE KANSAS CITY as STAN'S AL GAME OF THE WEEK.

Andy Iskoe

Angels at Rangers
Pick: Under 8.5

Jered Weaver has clearly been the Angels' most effective starter this season as has C J Wilson been for the Rangers as he's made a very successful conversion from reliever to starter. Both offenses have not been as potent as expected, especially Los Angeles, and this game should be played along the lines of last night's 4-3 game won by Texas. Both starters are capable of going deep into this contest and it would not surprise if this game was another tight contest with a "blowout" being no more than a 5-2 type final. More likely this game falls between a 6 and a 7.
