This is a 10* TOTAL BOB on the OVER D-Backs/Mariners.

I think we're going to see some offensive fireworks here in the opener of this Interleague battle.

Arizona hands the ball to Zac Gallen (3-1, 3.00 ERA), while the home side counters with the erratic Emerson Hancock (2-2, 6.10.) 

Seattle has seen the total go UNDER in three straight after taking two of three at Texas, but note that the Mariners have in fact seen the total eclipse the posted number in four of their last five after playing to three or more straight UNDERS in a row.

This number is a little low, so the play is the OVER.

Good luck, NP

This is an 8* SITUATIONAL PLAY on the Predators.

Nashville got the split in Vancouver, winning Game 2 by a score of 4-1. 

Vancouver is now forced to move forward with backup goaltender Case DeSmith, who I really respect, but who clearly was a big reason why Vancouver fell apart in Game 2.

The advantage now goes to Juuse Saros at home and when you also add in this very fair price, all signs do indeed point to the NASHVILLE as being the savvy wager in Game 3.

Good luck, NP

This is a 10* O/U BK on the OVER Wolves/Suns.

Game 1 went OVER in the Wolves 120-95 win, while Game 2 went UNDER in Minnesota's 105-93 victory.

I'm anticipating a more wide-open offensive affair like what we say in Game 1. 

In fact, note that Phoenix has seen the total eclipse the posted number in still eight of its last 12 in trying to avenge a SU/ATS road loss in which it was held to 95 or fewer points in. 

With their backs against the wall and now back in front of the home town crowd, look for Phoenix, much like the Magic last night, to now push the pace from start to finish and ultimately expect this total to fly OVER the number sooner, rather than later.

Good luck, NP

This is a 10* TOTAL BEST OF BEST on the OVER Canes/Isles.

New York is down 3-0 in this series and is likely going to be golfing after today.

Note though that the Isles have seen the total go OVER the number in eight of their last 11 in trying to avenge a home loss as an underdog vs. an opponent. 

With each team pushing the pace like I anticipate, I'm expecting a very high-scoring outcome once it's all said and done.

This number is low, the play is the OVER.

Good luck, NP

This is a 10* TOTAL BK on the OVER Cavaliers/Magic.

Do I expect the Magic to build off their blowout 121-83 win over the Cavaliers here in Game 3?! I sure do!

And do I think that Cleveland will bounce back offensively after that disastrous shooting performance last time out? 

I also believe that will be the case.

The shift in venue will help in this being another offensive affair, in fact I'm expecting even more points than what we saw in Game 3.

With both teams pushing the pace like I suspect, everything does indeed point to this total flying OVER the number sooner, rather than later this afternoon.

Good luck, NP
