Karl Garrett 30 DIMER - BOSTON CELTICS....10 DIMERS - PHILADLEPHIA 76ERS, & MINNESOTA (Perkins over Laffey) 30 DIMER - BOSTON CELTICS
Kinda surprised that after Game Three's Boston domination they are still catching points in this game.
All of Chicago's inexperiece showed in a BIG way on Thursday, and that also goes in the head coaching department, as Vinny Del Negro is still sporting a feathered, 80's hairstyle for crying-out-loud!
Boston has won 8 of the last 10 series meetings, and they have covered in 7 of those 10.
The Celtics appear to have received their wake up call after a couple of hotly contested battles on the parquet. There is a reason the Celts finsihed # 2, and the Bulls could do no better than # 7.
Take the Celtics.
10 DIMER - PHILADELPHIA 76ERS
I have to say, this Sixers team is proving "sticky", and me thinks the Magic has some tough sledding ahead in this series.
I am not saying Philly is heading back to the SunshineState up 3-1 in this series, but they will be close as shit in this game plus the points, with the outright a definite possibility.
The longer Orlando lets the 76ers linger in this matchup, the better the chances the Magic choke on their # 3 seed get.
Philly has been able to take 2 of the first 3 outright, and they have been able to cover in ALL 3 as the dog.
Look for the Sixers to do it again.
Take the points.
10 DIMER - MINNESOTA TWINS (Perkins over Laffey)
The Twins are "feeling it" this weekend in Cleveland, and I expect them to win another against the Tribe in the series finale.
Glen Perkins sports a slim 1.50 ERA over his first 3 starts, and I can easily see him outdueling Aaron Laffey in this spot.
Laffey was on target his last trip to the bump, but the Twins rapped out a shit-load of hits last night, and I see more in store in this one.
The Twins are starting to gets things together, winning the first 2 this weekend, and 5 of their last 7 overall.
Gotta stick with Minny to bust out the broom here!
