Best Bet: Cleveland +4.5 @1.30 – Counting all games this season and the sweep in last year’s playoff series, the odds on a Cavaliers win couldn’t be any greater. Tallying up 9 straight victories against the Hawks does show a clear dominance and it is amplified even more with both lineups being healthy for once. Atlanta don’t really have a “LeBron” stopper, with DeMarre Carroll skipping town in free agency and Paul Millsap not having enough tricks to trouble the juggernaut. Even if the Hawks do get a late lead, there is no doubt LeBron could will the Cavs to sneak another win…. business as usual in the post season for the KING! Feeling Lucky: Cleveland WIN @1.67 – The Hawks do suffer when sharp shooter Kyle Korver doesn’t get his game going. In Games 1 & 2 he was only able to contribute a combined 10 points in 57 minutes which makes him irrelevant, especially when the Cavs were able to hit 25 threes as a team last out. Atlanta aren’t too happy with the Cavs chasing records in junk time, although it could of been avoided if the Hawks actually showed up for the game. For all the doubters LeBron faces day by day, he sure knows how to get it done when it matters. Western Conference Semi-finals – GAME 3 Series Tied 1-1 Season Points +/-

Best Bet: Oklahoma +5.5 @1.48 – Two games in and this series has lived up to expectations. Game 1 was a walkover for the Spurs while Game 2 had the Thunder getting their revenge. In the final 13 seconds of the game, there were about 20 fouls not called with Oklahoma almost coughing it all up – a common theme this season. Tonight has the host team the underdog, wonder if Durant and Russ will respond.
Feeling Lucky: San Antonio 1-10 @2.52 – The Spurs will drop a game on their Oklahoma leg but we don’t think it will be Game 3. San Antonio just went down in Game 2, with LaMarcus Aldridge the only main contributor with 41 points, while the rest provided a little sauce on the side. Expect a response tonight.
