Nick Tropeano is coming off a great first start against the Kansas City Royals giving up 6 hit 2 walks and no runs in a 7-1 Anaheim win. The problem he has in this game is the Red Sox are not the Royals and their bats are on fire. The Sox will be too much for Tropeano who only has 15 career starts. Take The Red Sox.

Game 3 ending with only 5 goals was an aberration for these two high scoring offenses. Washington has scored 3 or more goals in 15 of their last 17 games while Columbus has scored 3 or more in 16 of 20. Tuesday night's Under result broke a string of 5 straight Overs for Washington and 8 straight for Columbus. If you watched game 3 you know that game should have gone Over as well. I still can't believe how many pucks clanged off the posts and the amount of missed opportunities by both teams. I expect those pucks to start going in the net again in game 4 and we get another high scoring, highly entertaining game. Take The OVER.

This Spurs team is outmatched in this series in every way without Kawhi Leonard who is done for the season. The Spurs played about as well as they could in that game 2 and it still wasn't close in the end. I look for San Antonio to come out swinging in the first quarter in front of the home fans and playing hard for Coach Popovich but in the end, the Warriors are trying to end this series in 4 games and I don't see them getting tripped up here at this number. Take The Warriors.

The Pelicans are playing outstanding basketball. Not only do they have the best player on the floor in Anthony Davis who is virtually unstoppable right now, Nikoli Miritoc and Jrue Holliday can score from anywhere on the court which allows Davis to work more 1 on 1 where again UNSTOPPABLE. The Pelicans defense is swarming Lillard and McCollum and have them all out of rhythm. I look for more of the same in Game 3 as this is just a bad matchup for Portland. Take The Pelicans.
