Bucks -5 over Heat (win)
The Bucks took a huge loss with Donte DiVincenzo being injured for the remainder of the season. Miami just doesn’t have a trustworthy enough offense for me to play them in this series. We all know the Heat play great defense, but if their offense doesn’t hit a groove they just hang on long enough to stay in the game. The Bucks are much better on the offensive and defensive glass and I believe will simply frustrate Miami to continue to take bad shots on offense. Take Milwaukee.

Rotation #575
Sixers -6 over Wizards (win)
Washington just does not have playoff quality defense and has to shoot an outrageous percentage just to be in the game. The Sixers are well coached and play great defense. At someone point in these playoffs their offense might become an issue, but any team in the league can score on this Wizards Defense and as the game gets deeper it gets frustrating for a team trying to make a comeback after Philly responds to every bucket. The Sixers defense will continue to adjust as this series grows on. Take the Sixers.

Rotation #952
Cubs -120 over Reds (win)
Davies/Castillo
The Cubs are on a roll as they won a tight 1-0 game last night and now have won 5 straight. The Reds are in a bad spot right now as they are banged up and the offense just is not going. Luis Castillo has been beat up this year as his ERA is one of the worst in baseball. Zach Davies pitched well in his last start and I believe the Cubs will cash in on a windy day that favors the pitchers this afternoon. Take the Cubs.
