Thursday Winners- 4/21

Yesterdays Recap-  Not a bad day yesterday going 2-2, but went 2-1 on my 3 unit plays so i was able to pick up a couple units. Also have hit 4 straight NBA playoff games, so dont miss tonights 2 winners. Check my sports monitor for my full stats and records!

Atlanta Braves @ LA Dodgers
The Dodgers are a hit or miss team but this looks like a great spot to finish off the series win vs the Braves especially with Kershaw on the mound. Kershaw has posted a 2.96 ERA in his last three starts, and looks to continue his success in the finale of this 4 game set. The dodgers have won 2 of the first three vs the braves and are looking to continue heading in the right direction. Jurjens pitched a beautuful game in his first start of the year, but he is normally very inconsistent and i cant see him dominating the Dodgers today like he did the Mets. The Braves have lost 3 of their last 4 while the Dodgers have won 3 of their last 4. Lets take the home team in this one for the normal 3 unit wager.
Dodgers (-134)

Oakland A's  @ Seattle Mariners
The former White Sox top prospect seems to have found himself this year after a couple of injury plagued years. Brandon McCarthy has posted a 2.45 ERA this year, and he has looked dominating despite his unlucky record. Felix Hernandez has not looked himself since his game 1 masterpiece, and it might have to do with the frustration of the Mariners offense. The A's have also owned the Mariners as of late taking 5 of the last 7 games head to head. The A's are also headed in the right direction winning 3 of their last 4 while the Mariners hae lost 6 of their last 8. Lets take the dog in this one. This will be a 2-Unit Wager.
Oakland A's (+135)- 2 Units

Quick Pick- Orioles (-134)- 3 Units.
Im going to ride Guthrie in this one, and hope for a nice easy home win for the O's.

Miami Heat @ Philadelphia 76ers (+4.5)
I knew i would be betting on this game no matter what the spread was about half way through the 1st quarter of game 1. You can just tell the Heat are ready to take the next step, and make a run at the championship. They are also 5-0 this year vs the 76ers with the average victory standing at 12 points. This spread should be right around 9 or 10 points so i was excited too see this one! Miami has won 9 of its last 10 games while the 76ers limped in losing 7 of their last 10 including 4 in a row. Look for Lebron to continue to dominate tonight and get a very easy road win to move to 3-0.
Heat (-4.5) - 4 Unit NBA Road Game of the Week

Dallas Mavericks @ Portland Trailblazers (-5.5)
Im very suprised with this spread to tell you the truth. Throughout the first two games Dallas has looked like the better and more complete team and yet today they are getting 5.5 points? They are 5-2 vs Portland this year, and 6-1 ATS. The Mavericks have also won their last 6 games, while Portland has dropped its last 3. I just dont think they are the same team without Brandon Roy (Playing 7 minutes does not count). Im not sure what MacMillan is doing here because if your best player tells you he can play, then fucking play him. Anyway lets take the points in this one even though i think Dallas takes the game in a nail bitter.
Mavericks (+5.5)

Good Luck!
