MISTER 4000
Steph Curry Celebration Day
There it is! The man stands alone....again! Actually he stands between two defenders after the classic pump-fake shuffle-left-and-fire Curry three-pointer. He makes it look so easy. Probably could've got the first shot off with his quick release to be honest, ever the showman. I fucking love him, and I will miss seeing highlights like this when he finally decides to hang them up. Maybe after he hits number 5000 then does the “night night” celebration as he runs off into the tunnel.
We've got a 10 game slate to end the work-week today with some great spots we've already released in WHOP chat. The one I believe is most-actionable still is Jazz -2 at home to my beloved Raptors. Normally I'd be all over the Raptors in a spot like this as they love to beat bad teams and have covered most spreads thrown their way all season long, but the Jazz aren't actually bad when they play their true starters like Lauri Markkanen. The cat is finally out of the bag with their blatant “we promise he's really injured” bullshit after the NBA fined them $100 000 for failing to adhere to the league's injury reporting policies, and then he played the next game. Pretty safe to say he's going to play in this one as well. Meanwhile, the Raptors have fully embraced the tanking policy going forward with good players like Jakob Poeltl being limited to 17 minutes by coaches last game and Chris Boucher not even leaving the bench even though he was healthy. Jazz win this one by a healthy margin in my opinion. I would play this line to -3.
For all of our thoughts and positions on the full NBA slate tonight be sure to join Mike (@FiddlesPicks) and Drew (@RantingJohnson) LIVE on YouTube at 10AM EST this morning. I guarantee you with all the injury stuff typical of March in the NBA there will be plenty of spots still available to get down on (it) come show time. We've made at least one play during the show every episode this week. Then line is set at +/- 1.5 live show plays and I'm taking the OVER! Let's finish this week strong!
Don't forget, if you want to get all of our picks in real-time, use the WHOP Picks link above to go to the store page which will give you access to the locked WHOP Advantage Community! The cost is $100/month. HOWEVER, there is an offer for $50 back in the first month simply for leaving a review on the store page, AND you will receive an account credit for an entirely free month if we ever do have a losing month. It is as “risk-free” as any package in the sports betting space. The consistency in beating the closing line should lead to positive results on solid amounts of volume.
