Jack's Free Pick Tuesday: 76ers/Celtics OVER 213
The books have progressively set the total in this series lower and lower after three straight unders to open the series. They dropped it down to 213.5 for Game 4, and the Celtics went off from 3 in a 128-96 victory and 224 combined points.
Now they have set it even lower at 213 for Game 5, and I believe there's value with the OVER for a couple of reasons. The main one being Joel Embiid (26.8 PPG) returning for Game 4, and he should be even more productive in Game 5 in his 2nd game back. Embiid helps open up everything offensively for Philadelphia, but he's still a liability defensively.
The Celtics are going to continue to hoist up 3-pointers at the highest rate in the NBA tonight. They are averaging 114 points per game in this series and will likely eclipse that to pave the way to us cashing this OVER ticket.
But the 76ers should have one of their best offensive games of the series after being held in check in three of four games thus far. And with their season on the line, fouls could definitely come into play in the 4th quarter. Bet the OVER in this game Tuesday.

Ricky Tran
Ricky's play on Over.
Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.
- The total has gone over in 4 of the Spurs last 7 games.
- The total has gone over in 4 of the Blazers last 7 games.
- The total has gone over in 3 of the Spurs last 6 home games.
Verdict: We should see plenty of Points in this game.
Stephen Nover
The Orioles have too many young talented bats to only rank 17th in scoring at 4.4 runs per game. Lately, though, Baltimore's offense has picked up. The Orioles are averaging 6.6 runs in their last five games if you discount a 17-1 loss to the Red Sox.
Houston's starting pitching is decimated. That is why the Astros have to go with a bullpen game here, probably starting Kai-Wei Teng, who has not thrown three innings in a game all season. Houston has the worst bullpen in the majors - and it's not close - with a 6.31 ERA and a big hole at closer with Josh Hader sidelined.
Orioles starter Shane Baz is having trouble with his new team with its hitter-friendly home park after having pitched his entire five-year big league career with Tampa Bay. Baz has a 5.08 ERA and 1.55 WHIP.
Sparked by a healthy and rejuvenated Yordan Alvarez, the Astros rank in the top five in runs, batting average and OPS. Alvarez is leading the majors in batting at .358 and is tied for second in homers and is third in RBIs.

Dave's Tuesday Free Play:
1* on Boston Red Sox -101
The Key: The Boston Red Sox are 3-0 since firing Alex Cora. Teams tend to respond well initially to these coaching changes and the Red Sox are doing just that. I think we need to continue to back them here after outscoring their last 3 opponents 27-4. I also like the fact that electric rookie Payton Tolle takes the ball for the Red Sox. He had 11 strikeouts in 6 innings in his 1st start against the Yankees. Trey Yesavage makes his 1st start of the season for the Blue Jays and will be on a pitch count. The Red Sox also have the better bullpen in this matchup. Take Boston.
**4X Top 10 NBA Handicapper!** Dave is a former #1 NBA Capper and he is riding a 1746-1505 NBA Run over the long haul that has his $1,000/game investors up $106,250!

The Dodgers are scoring 5.7 runs per game this season and should win this game by multiple runs tonight. Give me the Dodgers on the Run Line.

Anaheim @ Edmonton (10:00 PM EST)
Play On: Edmonton -160
The Anaheim Ducks travel to Edmonton to take on the Oilers on Tuesday night. Anaheim is 46-34-6 SU overall this year while Edmonton comes in with a 42-32-12 SU overall record on the season. Edmonton finds themselves down 3 games to 1 and they are better than that. Off an overtime last in the last game here in this series. Edmonton is 9-3 SU last 12 games at home vs Anaheim. I think we will see full effort here from the Oilers with their backs against the wall. This line is above my usual cutoff of -150 but I think we still have some value here. I'll recommend a small play on Edmonton tonight! Thanks and good luck, Rocky

Ray Monohan
A's +106
Locking this in early. The A’s are worth a free move on Tuesday. The A’s send out Aaron Civale, who has pitched well at times so far this season. He owns an ERA of just 3.86 and has allowed 3 runs or less in all but one start so far. He’s countered by Kris Bubic for the Royals, who has allowed 8 runs combined over his last two outings. The A’s have been a tricky team to deal with all year and they have the pitching edge to go along with that. Back the A’s. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be cheap bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Tonight’s FREE selection is a strong lean on the ATHLETICS ML. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

Tonight in the NHL playoffs, if you're hunting for value line underdog from the rotational schedule, I'm landing on the Boston Bruins getting plus money on the road in Game 5 against the Buffalo Sabres. Buffalo holds that cozy 3-1 series lead and will be playing in front of a raucous home crowd that's been starving for a moment like this after years of playoff drought. On the surface it looks like the Sabres are primed to slam the door shut, but after grinding enough of these first-round wars I've learned that this exact spot often hands sharp money the kind of edge that keeps you in the black.
The biggest trend that jumps out here is what happens to teams up 3-1 trying to punch their ticket in Game 5. Historically those favorites close out the series around 91 percent of the time, a number that's held steady across decades of postseason hockey. Yet those comebacks from down 3-1 have happened 32 times all-time and have actually been popping up more frequently in recent years. The trailing side in Game 5 suddenly plays with that desperate, laser-focused edge that can catch the home team flat-footed, especially after a blowout like the one Boston absorbed in Game 4. Road underdogs in the playoffs have been quietly profitable in these elimination-style spots for the simple reason that the betting public piles on the favorite so hard it leaves plus-money value sitting right there on the visitor who's literally playing for survival.
Boston brings exactly the veteran pedigree that makes this angle sing. The Bruins have been to more playoff battles than most of the current Sabres roster has even watched on highlight reels, and they've owned this particular rivalry in the postseason historically. When you stack that experience against a Buffalo squad that's still feeling its way through the pressure of a deep run, the road dog starts looking like the side with the higher ceiling once the game gets nasty and tight. Nothing kills a budding celebration faster than a veteran group that refuses to go quietly, Sabres fans might already be daydreaming about parade floats, but counting out Boston this early feels like the hockey gods setting up their favorite plot twist.
Listen Folks, hockey's chaotic and Buffalo could absolutely come out buzzing and end it quick. But if there's one thing I've learned betting these games year after year, it's that experienced road dogs in must-win Game 5 spots have a nasty habit of spoiling the party right when the home crowd thinks the story's already written. This is a viable underdog play and must be honored with its ability to deliver . Grab the plus money, play smart and shop for your best lines if possible, , and enjoy the chaos of ;post season hockey.

My selection is on Edmonton over Anaheim at 10 pm et on Tuesday.
The Oilers are in a position that was virtually unthinkable heading into the series, facing elimination at home in Game 5 on Tuesday. Edmonton may have deserved a better fate on Sunday as it fell in overtime on a controversial goal ruling in favor of the Ducks. I do think we'll see the Oilers stand up and deny Anaheim at home on Tuesday, noting that the Ducks are just 20-23 on the road this season where they've been outscored by an average margin of 0.4 goals. Edmonton has obviously now lost three games in a row - a streak that it has surpassed only once previously this season, during a four-game slide from January 21st to February 25th (crossing the Olympic break). The Ducks have posted more than three consecutive victories just once since March 3rd. Despite being down 3-1 in this series, Edmonton has taken three of four meetings at home against Anaheim this season. Take Edmonton (8*).
AAA Sports
AAA Sports' Selection: Kansas City Royals (ML).
Kansas City will start Kris Bubic -- has been better than his statistics show in our opinion. He's capable of tearing up a lineup.
The Royals are playing a lot better now as well, winning three straight baseball games.
The Athletics will start Aaron Civale -- he has looked shaky over his L2 starts, allowing 17 hits in just ten innings (eight runs too).
Even though the A's are at the top of the AL West standings at the moment, we don't think that they'll keep it up.
The play is on the Royals.
Mike Lundin
Diamondbacks vs Brewers MLB Free Pick
The Angle(s): The Milwaukee Brewers halted a four-game skid with a 5-0 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday. After Monday off, they now host an Arizona Diamondbacks team with right-hander Merrill Kelly (1-1, 9.31 ERA) on the mound. Sure, Kelly just had a rough outing, but note his 5-2 record and 2.95 ERA across 10 career starts versus Milwaukee. The veteran knows how to handle the ups and downs as an MLB pitcher, and I like the price on Kelly and the Arizona Diamondbacks here.
The Bet: Diamondbacks (3%).

For my best free pick on the board here for Tuesday in the NBA I am looking at the Boston Celtics at home hosting the Philadelphia 76ers. Sixers dropped both in Philadelphia and the only way to make this a series it’s to shock the world and get a game in Boston. I don’t think thats gonna happen but they should be able to keep this game tight. Sixers got pummeled at home and embarrassed teams don’t forget that type of loss this team has a ton of talent and if they can get Embiid to gel with Maxey and VJ this will be a close game.
Play on the Philadelphia 76ers plus the points rotation #571
