Celtics +9.5 over Lakers
The linemakers did an excellent job at setting this line. There is mass confusion across the nation on how the Celtics could be getting all of these points. The public is slightly on the Celtics tonight, but a lot of sharp money will be on LA. People are thinking if a team is favored by this much then they must cover. I usually tend to agree in situations like this, but Boston is playing excellent right now and their bench is playing better than most Laker starters. Boston had the best defense is the NBA. I know that they struggled on the road in the playoffs, but they are just two wins away from a title. They must be doing something right. The Celtics have won all four matchups this year and if the Lakers win they will have to work for it. Sometimes we tend to out think ourselves. Boston has the Lakers backed up against the wall and have all the momentum. I think the Lakers 4th quarter comeback was actually a good thing for the Celtics to go through. Look for a tight game. Take Boston.

[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]10,000 Unit MLB Stat Match Game of the Year #2[/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Texas Rangers +105 W/ Millwood over Kansas City[/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]For starters, I do not like when a team is playing their first home game after a road trip of 6 or more games without a day off after their last road game. Firthermore, I really don't like it when the team in that situation is coming home to play a team who had the prior day off. That's the situation Kansas City is in today and I feel it plays in our favor with Texas.[/FONT]
Also, the Royals are 0-4 in Meche's last 4 starts and Mecha has an ERA of 7.36 at home. The Royals are 1-5 in his 6 home starts this year and are 4 games below .500 at home overall.
Couple that with the fact that they are playing a better team and that they are 4-17 in their last 21 games overall and I feel Texas is an easy winner.
Millwood has been decent in his last 2 starts since coming back from the injury and out of his 4 starts on the road this year, 3 have been quality ones with two of those games coming against the Angels and Boston.
To get this team at this price today in this spot is a complete steal. Texas is well worth a big wager. Take the Rangers.

[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Under 195.5 Points Boston at Los Angeles[/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]It's going to take a lot to get this one there espeically with the fact that I feel Boston is going to struggle to score points tonight but to be honest, the Lakers might as well. Boston is a great defensive team and we know the effort from the Lakers on defense has to be better or else it's good night. No one's been impressed with the way Boston ha splayed on the road, despite beating Detroit in 2 of 3 on the road. I feel they will struggle to score and I feel they will slow the pace of the game down. After Game 2, the oddsmakers raised the price of this total and I feel that's a mistake. Look for a game in the low 180's tonight. Take the under.[/FONT]
