ASA Free NHL bet: Dallas Stars -125 vs. Minnesota Wild 8pm ET
Dallas returns home in a tied 2-2 series with every reason to seize momentum tonight. Coming off a sloppy overtime defeat, the Stars have proven time and again they respond well to setbacks and play their strongest hockey with extra preparation time.The Stars are 22-7-3 when coming off a loss this season and have hit in 11 of 15 games when playing with 2+ days of rest.Wyatt Johnston has been a revelation in the postseason, already tallying multiple goals and assists while stepping up big in key situations. His emergence helps offset any missing pieces and keeps the offense clicking. The Stars boast one of the league’s better home records this year at 27-12-4 and have owned the advantage when these teams meet at American Airlines Center. Dallas is the superior squad from top to bottom and should dictate play in front of their crowd. This series is headed for a grind, but expect the Stars to grab a critical victory in Game 5 and put Minnesota in a must-win hole.
ASA Free NBA player prop OVER 18.5 POINTS for CJ McCollum Hawks vs Knicks
McCollum continues to see a high usage rate for the Hawks and is one of the few vets on this team with big game experience. He is coming off a 26-point scoring night in Game 1 of this series on 11 of 20 shooting. He has gone OVER this prop total in 6 of his last ten games. The Knicks allow 23.3ppg on the season to shooting guards and have allowed 5 of the last eight similar players to McCollum go OVER their scoring prop. We expect McCollum to find the bottom of the net plenty in Game 2 against the Knicks.
NBA free player prop bet Game 1 Blazers vs Spurs, April 19th
ASA NBA player prop bet – Spurs De’Aaron Fox OVER 23.5 Points+Assists
Of the Spurs “big 3” in San Antonio of Wembanyama, Castle and Fox, only De’Aaron Fox has playoff experience, and we like the vet to have a big game here. In a recent game against this same Blazers team he put up a stat line of 32 in points + assists. He produced 29, 28 and 32 P+A in his last three games and his closing line was 25.5 or more in all three which makes today’s line a bargain. Portland allows 24ppg to point guards this season and 8.0 assists per game. In three games against the Blazers this season, Fox has averaged 33.3 points + assists per game.

NBA Longshot – We have you covered – Denver Nuggets (+850)
As we mentioned in our Efficiency Champions article, the Nuggets didn’t have the defensive efficiency stats to qualify this year as a potential NBA Champion (efficiency wise) but their overall efficiency differential is 7th best. The Nuggets suffered through several key injuries to their starting 5 which hurt them throughout the regular season as they lacked depth. Now Aaron Gordon and his 16PPG and 6RPG is back on the floor, along with Cam Johnson finding his stroke (43% from deep this season) which has the Nuggets poised to make a serious run at the Championship. Nikola Jokic (how isn’t he the MVP) is a triple-double machine (27.7PPG, 12.9RPG, 10.7APG) and Jamal Murray is putting up fantastic numbers this season with 25.4PPG and 7.1APG. Since the All-Star break the Nuggets have gone 19-8 SU with the 7th best Net rating in the league. The regular season injuries may have been a blessing in disguise as it forced bench players into bigger roles. That experience now gives Denver some added depth they would have been missing in this post season. To win it all you have to be successful on the road and the Nuggets were 26-15 SU awa from home this regular season with an average plus/minus of +4.7PPG. It’s going to be VERY difficult to come out of the West against either the Thunder or Spurs, but the Nuggets are capable of doing it. We won’t be making a huge investment in this – but at these longer odds we’ll make a small wager on Denver +850.

Our Money is on a team everyone is sleeping on…Detroit Pistons +425 to win the Eastern Conference
The Celtics are the odds on favorites to win the East and we won’t argue that as they’ve been really, really good this season and even a 70% Jayson Taytum is better than most players in the NBA. Could the Celtics win the Eastern Conference – yes absolutely but there isn’t value in their price at +160. The Cavs are next on the list at +370 but there’s no chance I’d invest in this team. Cleveland has been up and down more than a yo-yo and James Harden isn’t known for his “big game” prowess. The Knicks have a roster that could certainly challenge for the EC crown but Brunson and Karl Anthony Towns are too big of liabilities on the defensive end of the court.
That leaves us…
The Pistons won 60 games this season, yet nobody is talking about them as the potential NBA Champions or even the Eastern Conference Champ. Detroit had the 2nd best overall scoring differential at +8.2PPG and had the best record against the leagues top 10 teams with a 17-7 SU record. This team can lock teams down with the 2nd best defensive efficiency rating at 1.098-points per possession allowed. Despite Cade Cunningham missing extended time in the later part of the season, the Pistons were 20-9 SU after the All-Star break with the 6th best Net differential of +8.7. Detroit held opponents to 44.3% shooting on the season, 2nd lowest number in the league and had the best 3PT% defense at 34.5%. The Pistons had the 3rd best road record in the league at 28-13 SU with an average margin of victory of +5.8PPG so they have what it takes to win away from home. Detroit also had a 39-13 SU record against the rest of the Eastern Conference this season. Against the two other Eastern Conference challengers, the Celtics and Knicks, the Pistons were 3-1 against the Celtics, 3-0 versus the Knicks. This prediction is weighed heavily on the health of Cunningham and if he’s near 100% this team has a legitimate chance to come out of the East.

Jordan Pope (ankle) has been deemed a "true game-time decision," but it looks like he's going to give it a go for Texas and try to at least gut it out.
Gotta love the @CBSSports "expert" analysts talking about the brackets with Clark Kellogg saying that High Point has experience and good size. Experience yes. Size what? They rank 329th in average height and don't have a single guy over 6'8 in their rotation #NCAAtourney
Spot the difference between the #NHL and #NBA? The toothless guy who lays it on the line for pride in his country or the guy that flops and fakes injuries all the time? #jackhughes @stoolpresidente @usahockey
