We split our selections 2-2 Saturday with our 2* STRONG play on the Clippers/NUGGETS OVER leading the way as an easy Winner. Denver had all 5 starters score between 15-22 points as they used a balanced attack to secure a Game 7 victory over the Clippers to move on to Round 2. James Harden pulled his usual Game 7 no-show scoring a mere 7 points on 2-8 shooting. We went 1-2 on MLB plays with the Padres winning 2-1, the Reds losing 6-11 and Boston also losing 3-4. Losing .05 Units brings our rolling 68 day record to 105-78 for Plus 86.81 Units.
2* Clippers/DENVER OVER 206.5 (101-120) WIN
1* SOLID – (MLB) Padres +100 (2-1) WIN
1* SOLID – (MLB) Reds -190 (6-11) LOSS
1* SOLID – (MLB) Red Sox -115 (3-4) LOSS
2* STRONG – (NBA) Clippers/Nuggets OVER 206.5: NBA OVERS are on a 12-4 run after the Rockets and Warriors easily cleared their number last night. These two teams have blown past the total in their last two contests and we see more of the same here with James Harden apparently awakened, scoring 28 points for the Clips in their Game 6 win. With Russell Westbrook back healthy the Nuggets have their 6 man rotation intact and should do some damage as the Clippers DEFENSE has waned some lately. This should be one heck of a game with plenty of shot making.
