New York at PHILADELPHIA (201')

By Anson Munson, Featured Handicapper

I handed you a Wednesday MLB winner on the Twins +110 on the Run Line doubling up the White Sox.

With a smaller, day-heavy baseball card this afternoon, I am going to head back to the hardwood for my Thursday money.

Winning Day# 5 of 7

2nd Biggest NBA Release Goes Again

75 Dime
East Quarters Lock

Cavaliers at Magic - 7:00 ET

BIGGER THAN my 4 straight MLB 60 Dime Winners
- Twins (RL +110) 6-3 over White Sox, 4/24 -
- Phillies (RL +120) 7-0 over White Sox, 4/19 -
- Tigers 4-3 over the Twins, 4/14 -
- Blue Jays (RL+105) 5-3 over Rockies, 4/13 -

12-5 with NBA 50 Dimers this year,
this play is 50% STRONGER

I am all about scoring with this winner on the Cavs and Magic. Time to add another winning day.

Even though 5 of the past 6, and 7 of the last 10 series meetings between the New York Knicks and the Philadelphia 76ers have landed Under the total, I suggest playing the Over as your Thursday night comp play from the Wells Fargo Center tonight.

Monday's improbable 104-101 win by the Knicks wound up holding just Under the posted price of 206 1/2 points.

Tonight's total happens to be hovering around 202 1/2 points as I type this analysis, and New York happens to be on an overall 14-3 Over clip in its last 17 games contested since the regular season.

Philadelphia has landed Over the total in 5 of its last 7 and is on an overall 10-5 Over roll for their last 15 games since the regular season.

My money is on this third game of the series to wind up in the Over column.

I am on fire in the NBA playoffs!

How easy was last night's 2000♦ Double-Your-Wager winner on the Thunder absolutely dominating the Pelicans by 32 points!?!?!?!

Time to add another winner in this opening round of the postseason.

It is Game 3 tonight at Crypto.com Arena, and it will be a winner. Nuggets and Lakers, let's get down to business.

After an extra day off between games, look for the 76ers and their crowd to be raring to go at Wells Fargo Center this Thursday night.

New York's 8-0 run on Monday to close Game 2 propelled them to the 104-101 home win to make it 2-0 in the series and also make it 5 wins in the past 6 series meetings this season!

The fact of the matter is Jalen Brunson has not shot the ball well at all through New York's pair of wins, and the refs certainly aided the Knickerbockers' cause in Monday's victory.

A 3-0 deficit in the series is a certain death knell, and while the points are tempting with underdog New York, I had pegged this series as one that could go the distance, I am not giving up that mantra.

Expect the 76ers to play with a greater sense of urgency and expect Philly to take Game 3 of this series by at least 6 points in South Philadelphia.
