Toronto Raptors -13 (3 Units)
The Raps suddenly find themselves in the 7th seed in the East just 2.5 up from Atlanta for the 8th seed. The 5th spot is not out of reach, however. They have lost their last 3, and 4 of their last 5. The Bucks have allowed over 103 points in their last 8 games (and just 2 wins in that span). These two teams met twice this season, with a blowout win by the Bucks and home and a blowout by the Raps at home. I'm looking for the trend to continue tonight.
Washington Wizards ML +130 (2 Units)
I don't understand why Boston is favored here. They are off a b2b overtime win in Milwaukee. The Big 3 supposedly will play limited minutes tonight, but surely Rivers doesn't want to give them big minutes in this b2b situation. Washington is in a dogfight for the 5th and even the 4th seed. You know they would love to get their hands on Cleveland again in the 1st round. Not only is Washington off 3 days rest, but they also have beat Boston twice this season. This play is serious value.
Phoenix Suns +6.5 (1 Unit)
Nice opportunity to get one of the best teams in the West plus so many points. The Suns strangely sit in the 6th seed out West now. I know they are on a b2b here, but Shaq is rested and he'll be motivated to take on Duncan. Every game is big in the West to end this season, but I like the teams getting a nice amount of points because you know every game will be a battle.
