Fantasy Impact: The Donovan Mitchell Trade
After the Utah Jazz traded Rudy Gobert, it was only a matter of time before the team ended up trading Donovan Mitchell as well. There was no way the Jazz could justify holding Mitchell, because the team would have been a fringe playoff team with no viable path to improving. So, they traded Mitchell on... Read More

It was a great night for my underdog picks last night! Not only did the Bucks and Grizzlies cover, but they both won outright, albeit in very different fashions. The Bucks won by only three points in the final minute while the Grizzlies absolutely rolled up the Warriors by 39 points in a blowout. That's... Read More

It's May 4th today, better known as "Star Wars Day" to nerds (like myself) everywhere! I promise not to make too many Star Wars references today, but I will say that yesterday reminded me of both "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi." The Celtics stuck back in a big way, shutting down... Read More

As we move into game two in each of the conference semifinals, I have to say that I wasn't suprised by the results in game one of any of these series. The Bucks' road win on Sunday afternoon was the only true "upset" and I am still trying to figure out why they were underdogs... Read More

After a sub-par night of bets on Tuesday night, I needed a day off yesterday to clear my head, get some rest, and if we are being honest - focus on baseball for a bit. Round one is winding down as the Heat clinched their series on Tuesday while the Bucks and Warriors both cashed... Read More

All in all, it was a pretty good night! The Celtics won outright at plus money and finished off their sweep of the Nets while the Mavericks dominated the Jazz and in dismantling them, held them to 72 total points so we hit the spread AND the total there. Both of our Mavs' wings hit... Read More

We are back to three-game slates this week and at some point probably some two gamers as the Sixers, Warriors, Heat, Bucks, and Celtics all have a chance to finish their series in the next few days with a win. Sunday was a mixed bag of results. I did hit the over in two of... Read More

It was a great day of NBA basketball yesterday and that's not just because I won more bets than I lost either. All the games were pretty tight right up to the end and I nearly pulled off the sweep on picking sides until the Grizzlies lost in the late game. Dallas should have won... Read More

Friday night's game featured two games that came down to the wire and one big ole' Bucks blowout. The Miami Heat choked away game three in the fourth quarter, costing me a chance at going 3-0 on sides last night and busting up my parlays. Jimmy Butler took some ill-advised shots on the final two... Read More

I'm looking for that big night to flip my record as I'm languishing a few games under .500 this postseason. The night started off great with the Grizzlies overcoming two big deficits to pull out the win and cover. Ja Morant hit his assists props and things were looking good. I didn't bet the Utah...

Last night featured three really great games and I hope you take a minute to realize just how good these first-round games have been so far. I was sweating the Celtics in the first half, but sure enough, they found a way to battle back and win (and cover) in the second half. Al Horford... Read More

It's beginning to become a bit of a pattern here this postseason. I watch the first game of the night. Things go well. Hawks pull away late and cover. Jimmy Butler gets two steals (and scores a bazillion points in an epic performance). So far good. Then the Grizzlies smack the T-Wolves in the second... Read More

I have officially rebuked the Denver Nuggets and Nikola Jokic. My night was cruising right along with the Mavericks not only covering their spread but winning outright AND going over their team total. Jalen Brunson crushed his prop in the process, too. Then the Sixers took care of business and wiped out the Raptors to... Read More

The teams that were supposed to win last night did just that as both Brooklyn and Minnesota qualified for the playoffs and locked up the #7 seeds in their respective conferences.
