With the Raptors laying a turd in the 2Q, they are down 59-55 at halftime. So I'm taking them in the 2nd half -6.5.

4/14/18

2.0U: Spurs (+8) at Warriors - L
2.0U: Raptors (-7.5) vs Wizards
1.0U: Raptors (-6.5) vs Wizards 2H
3.0U: Sixers (-6.5) vs Heat
2.0U: Blazers (-5.5) vs Pelicans

Sixers line dropped to 5.5, so I'm upping my bet to 4.0U. All-in with the Sixers to win by 6 or more at home. Raptors pulled it out for me big time as the final spread was 7.5 which they barely covered.

2.0U: Spurs (+8) at Warriors - L
2.0U: Raptors (-7.5) vs Wizards - W
1.0U: Raptors (-6.5) vs Wizards 2H - W
4.0U: Sixers (-5.5) vs Heat
2.0U: Blazers (-5.5) vs Pelicans

Added Blazers -5.5 in the second half for 1.0U so I won that one, but lost the overall game. Final stats:

4/14/18

2.0U: Spurs (+8.0) at Warriors - L
2.0U: Raptors (-7.5) vs Wizards - W
1.0U: Raptors (-6.5) vs Wizards 2H - W
4.0U: Sixers (-5.5) vs Heat - W
3.0U: Blazers (-5.0) vs Pelicans - L
1.0U: Blazers (-5.5) vs Pelicans 2H - W

Overall +3.0U for the day. Picks for today so far:

4/15/18

1.0U: OVER 200 Bucks at Celtics
1.0U: Rockets (-11.0) vs Wolves

Bucks win today.

Don't get fooled by that high Rockets line of -11 against the Wolves. They will cover.

last time I bet it was after Kyrie's injury in the 2015 finals. I bet the under (total points), and it worked despite the OT. it was a bloodbath.
