Rotation #581
Hawks +7 over Sixers (win)
The Hawks have grabbed all of the momentum and as a young team seem like they are too young to even know how much pressure there is in this game 5.  Atlanta shot the ball as poor as you could and still won the other night as the Sixers collapsed.  Joel Embiid is injured and it’s almost like he needs 35+points for the Sixers to win.  I think Philly still can win this game, but Atlanta is a great rebounding team and they have firepower on offense.  This is a team that is not turning the ball over so they are always going to be in a game.  This Atlanta team has not had many awful quarters in this postseason and I don’t see them getting blown out.  Take the Hawks.

Rotation #977
Twins/Mariners Over 8.5 runs (win)
Ober/Sheffield
The Mariners blew out the Twins last night and have the luxury going up against a young Bailey Ober who doesn’t have much big league experience.   The Twins will go against Justus Sheffield who has struggled at times this year. Minnesota is a little bit better at hitting lefties and better at hitting the ball on the road.  I don’t think the total should be this low with these two starters.  Take the Over.
