Rotation #565
Sixers +4 over Knicks
The Sixers have many veteran players who will play their hardest not to get eliminated. The good news for Philadelphia is that the Knicks have a few injuries on their bench, and they will get a lot smaller with Bogfanovic out and Robinson questionable to play. The Sixer’s kryptonite in this series has been their need for rebounding on the defensive end, so they must take advantage tonight. Brunson should play, but he is not 100 percent. Philly must take advantage of the Knick’s misfortunes and return the series home. Take the Sixers.

Rotation #953
Cubs -105 over Mets
Assad/Manaea
The Chicago Cubs have the best slugging percentage against left-handed pitching in MLB. Chicago stater Javier Assad has looked sharp and should keep the Mets to limited runs. The Cubs have a stellar batting average when facing lefties and a superior bullpen. Take the Cubs.
