triple-dime bet 566 MIA -5.5 (-110) BetUS vs 565 ATL Analysis: Play on Miami at 8:05 ET. There hasn't been a close game in this series. From a pointspread perspective, the closest cover by either team has been nine points (last game). Prior to that we saw Atlanta win by 26 as a 4.5-point favorite, Miami win outright by as a 5.5pt dog, Miami win by 29 as a four-point favorite and Atlanta win outright by 10 as a six-point dog. Now it's the Heat's turn. They are 19-8 ATS at home vs. Atlanta since 1996, winning 23 of those 27 games straight up. Most impressive is how Miami has performed this season off a SU loss, going 25-16 ATS in the next game. If that SU loss came by 15 or more points (like last game did), then they are a very strong 8-1 at the betting window. Before we cashed on Atlanta in Game 4, the? Hawks had lost 12 straight playoff road games. All signs point to a seven-game series here. Miami is our 25* 1st Round **Game of the Year**.

BET THE FARM 5*: Boston Bruins -190
I am shocked at the pundits calling the Bruins rusted, as opposed to rested. The focus on tonight's game should not be on the Bruins, but Carolina, who is beat up from that physical series with the Devils. You will see the difference in these two clubs tonight. Boston has dominated the season series, winning the last 5 matchups. They are the better all around team and frankly, I love them at home, rested and having watched how mediocre Jersey failed in their attempts to beat mediocre Carolina.

BONUS 1*: Detroit Red Wings
I love this matchup, but it is not my main call tonight considering I totally misread the Ducks/Sharks series.

Not tonight! Miami all the way! I can handicap pretty well and all my numbers are on Miami. I would be extremely surprise if the Heats don't win this one or don't cover it.
Well, whatever you pick, GL to all!
arty:P.S.: Philly was another story ... with missing key players like Howard (and Lee) ... everybody figured it would be an easy win for Philly. The mistake was, Orlando is far more superior than Philly and I think they finally put their acts together last evening.
