Rotation # 516
Nuggets -8.5 over Heat (loss)
Miami did a great job in mop-up time, making the game close on paper. The Nuggets dominated them and were up 24 going into the final frame. Denver is too talented inside the paint and gets easy buckets inside the paint. The Denver home-court crowd is a massive advantage. Miami has a great defense, but they get worn down by the play of Nikola Jocic. This series is a complete mismatch. Take the Nuggets.

Rotation #957
Cubs -105 over Padres (win)
Stroman/Weathers
Marcus Stroman missed a no-hitter by a fluke base hit in his last start. Ryan Weathers is a young pitcher that only strikes out a few batters. Stroman is having a great year, and it’s remarkable to see a pitcher that is 5’8 pitch the way he does. Chicago is good against left-handers, while the Padres are not great at hitting right-handers. Take the Cubs.
