I’m coming off another profitable day at the office, yet I’m hoping my best bets can turn around. Home Team in Italics and Best Bets indicated with ** Last Night: 9-7 (+165 if betting $100 on every game) Overall Record: 41-27 (+1,430) Best Bets: 6-6 (-80) Los Angeles (+155) over Toronto In terms of run differential, these teams are even, so I think it’s a no-brainer to take the Dodgers at…

As the Portland Trailblazers battle the Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference Semifinals, the Los Angeles Clippers and their fans must be miserable. Injuries to their two star players–Chris Paul and Blake Griffin–not only derailed their chances of beating the Blazers, but an opportunity to knock off the Stephen Curry-less Warriors as well.
