Pick for March 25, 2021 (THURSDAY) Game will start on 03:45 PM EST, World Cup Qualifier - Europe Match: Sweden - Georgia [LOSS] - PICK: SWEDEN -1.5 GOALS for 2 UNITS (2.02 ODDS). All things considered this is a relatively easy Group compared to the rest of European qualifying. Group B is highlighted by Spain with Sweden and Greece likely to duke it out for the second spot out of this group. Sweden have been in such poor form over the last year that they have brought back Zlatan who appears to be ageless at this point. The Swedes have lost six of their last eight matches, though these losses were in the Nations League top tier where they were paired against Portugal, Denmark, and France, all teams ranked in the Top 12 of the FIFA ranking. The addition of Zlatan will give this side a huge boost. They host a Georgia side that is winless in their last five with losses to North Macedonia and Armenia, not the powerhouse sides Sweden have faced. Georgia were in one of the lower Nations League tiers and just do not have the depth or talent to challenge for a place in the World Cup. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 25, 2021 (THURSDAY) Game will start on 07:40 PM EST, NBA Match: New York Knicks - Washington Wizards [LOSS] - PICK: WASHINGTON WIZARDS +3.5 POINTS for 2 UNITS (1.85 ODDS). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FyzomhGv.jpg&t=665&c=4h2eFLF8XS9Blw) We roll with the Wizards here as we think they have a great shot at winning this Outright. Look, it's always scary going against a team like the Knicks who continue to play with great effort each night, but don't forget, this team only beat the Magic recently by 1 point and this Wizards team was down by as much as 30 points in their last game. They still have prideful players like Beal, Westbrook, Hachimura and Matthews and this team will come out with some fire today. I can't imagine them getting plunked by such a wide margin today and at the very least the effort should be there today. Also, the Knicks rarely score 130 points on anyone and they will likely have a let down in shooting today and I think Washington will show a lot of pride today and the Wizards will play very well today. Don't forget the Knicks have the Bucks on deck too and they might be looking ahead to that as well and put it together, I think the Wizards, who have beat the likes of the Nuggets and Lakers can step up and play well today. They have two future hall of famers on their squad, the effort should be there today. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 25, 2021 (THURSDAY) Game will start on 08:00 PM EST, NHL Match: Chicago Blackhawks - Florida Panthers [LOSS] - PICK: FLORIDA PANTHERS ML for 2 UNITS (1.77 ODDS). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FMaGdPYe.jpg&t=665&c=w-4f02buAZVXkg) The Florida Panthers will look to bounce back after losing two straight on the road. The club took a 3-5 loss to Tampa Bay Sunday then followed it up with a 2-3 loss from Chicago Tuesday night. But I really like their chances on bouncing back and winning big tonight against the Blackhawks. The Panthers are now 20-8-4 on the season and have been one of the better teams as a whole this year. The clubs offense ranks 5th in the NHL overall and that's with missing 5 total games this season due to COVID. Now, both of these teams have played a really tough schedule over the last month but their records tell the story of two very different teams. Over the month of March the Panthers are 7-5 while losing 3 of those games by 1 point. Chicago is 3-7 over the month and have gotten blown out in 6 of those games. I really like Florida tonight! I not only think the Panthers win this game but actually win by 3 or 4 goals. Chicago's defense is a hot mess. The club ranks 25th in the NHL in goals against and 28th on the penalty kill. These two teams have faced each other 3 times already this month with the Panthers winning 2 of those contests. Even with the one loss the Panthers have scored 12 total goals to Chicago's 8. Florida is just a better team than the Blackhawks and the club has only lost back to back games twice this season. Florida has yet to lose three straight. Take the Panthers in Chicago! #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 25, 2021 (THURSDAY) Game will start on 09:00 PM EST, NHL Match: Colorado Avalanche - Vegas Golden Knights [LOSS] - PICK: VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS ML for 2 UNITS (2.50 ODDS). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Ft9tIijM.jpg&t=665&c=vE0CFlSBlMxDkw) This is going to be a great game to watch tonight! Both teams are fighting for a spot at the top of the Western division where Vegas holds a 22-7-1 overall record and Colorado 20-8-3. Normally, I would take the home team in this match-up but I really like how the Golden Knights have been playing. Over the month of March the club is 10-3 while improving on both ends of the ice. Defensively, Vegas has given up 31 total goals over the stretch to those opponents where they hold a 2.3 goals against average. Offensively, they have scored 50 goals in those 13 games averaging 3.8 per game. Colorado has also looked stellar as of late but the club is coming home after a horrible defensive game to the Coyotes where the team gave up 5 goals. They really haven't faced a high powered team like the Knights in a minute so I think they are going to struggle out of the gate. Hell, over the course of this month the Avalanche have only faced San Jose (twice), Anaheim (3 times), Arizona (4 times, LA (twice) and Minnesota (twice). Look for Vegas to control the tempo in this game tonight. Take the Golden Knights in Colorado! #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 26, 2021 (FRIDAY) Game will start on 08:10 PM EST, NBA Match: New Orleans Pelicans - Denver Nuggets [WIN!!!] - PICK: DENVER NUGGETS -2.5 POINTS for 2 UNITS (1.88 ODDS). We roll with the Nuggets here as they face the Pelicans as this is a good spot for them given that they just gave up 135 points to the Raptors who of course, wasn't sure if they were playing their last game with Lowry or Powell. Note, the Nuggets have already lost to the Pelicans by 5 points just 5 days ago, they face a team coming off one of the worst offensive performances of the year, note, this team shot 33% from 3 point land and the Raptors shot lights out at about 50% and one has to think that these Nuggets will come out focused today. The Pelicans of course are on a nice up tick, but they did beat the Lakers handily in their last game, this is the same team that lost to Portland in back to back games, beating an lowly Lakers team without Lebron is not that impressive and we like the Nuggets to come out focused and ready to roll tonight. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 26, 2021 (FRIDAY) Game will start on 08:10 PM EST, NBA Match: Charlotte Hornets - Miami Heat [WIN!!!] - PICK: CHARLOTTE HORNETS ML for 2 UNITS (2.05 ODDS). Miami is a MASH unit with a ton of players out, Butler, Dragic and others, and they just played last night in a hard-fought grueling loss to Portland and are spent, and now travel to a rested Charlotte team on a days rest after winning their last 2 games of a 5 game road swing and now are at home and ready to go with a youthful lineup who can create some issues for a thin and depleted Miami roster tonight. Charlotte held their last 2 opponents to 97 points, including San Antonio. Good spot for the Hornets, not for the Heat. Although Ball may be lost for the season, Graham has stepped up at point guard and Heyward and Rozier are formidable. Miami was also active at trade deadline so a lot of uncertainty there as well. 3rd game in 4 nights for a weary Heat team, and Charlotte has better numbers across the board in last 5 game stats in all offensive % key stats. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 26, 2021 (FRIDAY) Game will start on 10:00 PM EST, NHL Match: Arizona Coyotes - San Jose Sharks [WIN!!!] - PICK: ARIZONA COYOTES ML for 2 UNITS (1.95 ODDS). Arizona is hands-down the superior team here Friday. San Jose is just 3-10 in their last 13 games after a win and Arizona is 4-1 in their last five games as a favorite. San Jose has allowed 35.6 shots on goal per game over their last five games and their power-play has struggled converting just one time with the extra man over there last five games. Arizona has loud just to power-play goals over their last five games and I expect them to play much better against San Jose here tonight especially after beating a very good Colorado team. Play Arizona ML #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 27, 2021 (SATURDAY) Game will start on 10:00 AM EST, World Cup Qualifier - Europe Match: Russia - Slovenia [WIN!!!] - PICK: RUSSIA -0.5 GOAL for 2 UNITS (1.92 ODDS). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FcJ6Lim8.jpg&t=665&c=dPHyWtq7JfXVyA) We like Russia here in a huge bounce back as they come off an ugly 5-0 loss at Serbia in their last Nations League match in November. They have now lost back to back matches and are winless in their last six since lighting it up in the World Cup and having a very strong Euro Championship qualifying run. Russia should be confident in their chances in this group which include Croatia who we believe is their only competition, with minnows Cyprus, Malta, and Slovakia and Slovenia. Russia needs to start on the right foot here against a side they should dominate. For Slovenia, overconfidence might do them in here. They are unbeaten in their last eight matches, but have really only been challenged by Greece. The visitors were poor against Azerbaijan, but dominated the likes of Kosovo and Moldova. Russia won the last meeting at home over Slovenia, 2-1 in 2009 World Cup qualifying, though the visitors picked up the win in the second meeting. We like the Russians with the upside here. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 27, 2021 (SATURDAY) Game will start on 09:55 PM EST, NCAA - College Basketball Match: Houston Cougars - Syracuse Orange [WIN!!!] - PICK: HOUSTON COUGARS -6.5 POINTS for 2 UNITS (1.96 ODDS). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F7ytXUpa.jpg&t=665&c=5XvCZ2KU2VeIdA) Houston is the superior team here Saturday. I have Houston winning this game by 15+ points here Saturday as Syracuse's 2-3 zone will be no match for this Houston team as they beat up on other teams that run that this season. Houston is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 neutral site games when favored and they have held opponents to shooting just 28.3% against them from beyond the arc this season. Houston will definitely be able to dominate the boards big time against this Syracuse team and Houston has averaged 78.8 points per game over their last 5 games while shooting 46.8% as a team and holding opponents to just 59.2 points per game against them with opponents shooting just 38.7% against them over their last 5 games. Houston's opponents of shot just 37.3% against them overall the season and they have outrebounded opponents by over 9 rebounds per game this season holding opponents to just 57.9 points per game overall. Syracuse has really struggled with turnovers over their last 2 games with 12 and 15 turnovers and if that happens against Houston, they could possibly lose by 20+ points here tonight. Play Houston ATS. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 27, 2021 (SATURDAY) Game will start on 09:40 PM EST, NBA Match: Oklahoma City Thunder - Boston Celtics [WIN!!!] - PICK: BOSTON CELTICS -7.5 POINTS for 2 UNITS (1.90 ODDS). Remember, Evan Fournier is likely playing in this game getting plenty of minutes and Boston is more than excited to make a run here and what better team to face than OKC who has been flat against .500 teams of late anyway. Remember, this team picked up Wagner as well and a team that struggled so badly in the bench, just destroyed Milwaukee and even dropped 43 points or so in the 3rd quarter. Boston has gotten very good, added depth and I think after the big win yesterday, they really get after it today and go for the huge win over OKC in a likely blowout. Celtics likely roll today. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 27, 2021 (SATURDAY) Game will start on 10:00 PM EST, UFC 260 Match: Khama Worthy - Jamie Mullarkey [LOSS] - PICK: KHAMA WORTHY ML for 2 UNITS (1.71 ODDS). Worthy a solid fighter but off a loss in a surprising first round TKO against Azaitar in his last fight, I know he is laser focused for this one, and frankly I thought this line would be -170 or higher, as I think he gets a KO here. Mullarkey was a stud overseas but his first 2 UFC fights have been losses and he is not at the level that Worthy is, and Worthy will be the better and more powerful striker here. KO in my opinion at a cheap number. Mullarkey has not fought anyone this good and already lost 2 fights against lesser fighters. He can punch and Worthy has a weak chin but I think he puts him down early and avoids getting into a slugfest here. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 27, 2021 (SATURDAY) Game will start on 10:00 PM EST, UFC 260 Match: Francis Ngannou - Stipe Miocic [LOSS] - PICK: OVER 1.5 ROUNDS for 2 UNITS (1.70 ODDS). This is a good fight, they fought back in 2018 and Miocic won as a +170 dog, and is a small dog again, and a live one in many aspects. I like this to be drawn out fight as Miocic is a veteran fighter and knows how to avoid big shots and calculate his attack. No doubt Ngannou can win this and he has power and is dangerous this time around, but Miocic has had 4 fights in 4 years and will be very cautious out of the gate here, I like this past 1.5 rounds. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 28, 2021 (SUNDAY) Game will start on 02:45 PM EST, World Cup Qualifiers Match: Italy - Bulgaria [WIN!!!] - PICK: ITALY -1.5 GOALS for 2 UNITS (1.70 ODDS). As per your selection on Italy to grab another big win in WC qualifiers, they are on an unbeaten run of 24 games, and over their last seven games, they have five wins and in each of them, they have covered the -1.5 goal line. This isn't the Italy of old as they play an up-tempo style of football with strikers that can score and create chances. Italy now travels to Bulgaria and faces a team that has won just one game over their last 10 and is just simply not very good on both ends of the pitch. We expect Italy to dominate this game and take their chances well, ultimately grabbing a win to nil. #BlackLivesMatter

This is not as strong of Seminole team as they have been in the last couple of years. Michigan has had good recent success against FSU and expect that to carry over into this game as well. Florida State has some shaky losses this season to UNC, Notre Dame, and Georgia Tech (twice) and if Michigan can shoot it well from the arc, they will take care of business. Florida State is 1-3 ATS (1 push) in their last 5 neutral site games. Michigan is 17-7 ATS in their last 24 games. This team has adjusted to life without Isaiah Livers and will make a deep run this weekend with a good chance to make the Final Four. #BlackLivesMatter

UCLA's strength is 3-point shooting and they're not too hot inside the arc. But Alabama is nasty-stingy defending the arc. Bama also owns a big advantage on the glass and we saw what the Tide did last time they faced a team that runs a slower-paced offense...they crushed Maryland. The Bruins haven't faced a tempo with the talent level they're going to encounter on Sunday. Alabama HC Nate Oats is 7-0 ATS as a neutral court favorite in a line range that includes today's. And the Tide are 19-9 ATS against teams that make at least 45% of their FGA under Oats, out-scoring the 28 opponents by double digits on average. I'm laying the points with Alabama on Sunday. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 29, 2021 (MONDAY) Game will start on 07:15 PM EST, NCAA - College Basketball Match: Houston Cougars - Oregon State Beavers [WIN!!!] - PICK: OREGON STATE +8.5 POINTS for 2 UNITS (1.80 ODDS). Looking to back the red hot underdog in this game. Oregon State is playing as well as any team in the country the past 2.5 weeks. The Beavers come into this game winners of six straight games and all against NCAA tourney teams who also rank in the top 34 at Kenpom. On the other end of things Houston has played just two teams (Memphis 2x and Texas Tech) and three games all year versus teams ranked in the top 35. Both of their wins over Memphis were by 3 points or less. Most importantly for OSU in this game is what is expected to be a very slow paced contest which means fewer possessions meaning it will be hard for either team to pull away in this one. Look for a close game here. Take Oregon State plus the points. #BlackLivesMatter

I love the Pelicans in this spot. Yes, they should be without Lonzo Ball again tonight but they have gotten used to that over the last few games and they have looked solid. New Orleans beat Boston earlier in the season coming back from 24-points down showing the Pellys that they can beat this Celtics team. Both New Orleans and Boston are on mini winning streaks coming into this matchup but we aren't sold on what Boston did last time out. The Celtics beat OKC by 17 but they were down four going into the fourth against a not good Thunder team. The matchups in this game will be fun to watch but in the end Zion will be the difference maker. Zion is playing at a different level right now and he will be way too much for the Celtics to handle. The Pelicans have a knack for being a live dog and we see that again tonight. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 29, 2021 (MONDAY) Game will start on 10:00 PM EST, NCAA - Basketball Match: Baylor Bears - Arkansas Razorbacks [WIN!!!] - PICK: BAYLOR BEARS -7.5 POINTS for 2 UNITS (1.90 ODDS). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FWqG3NsF.jpg&t=665&c=X_3BB8QKVK-XDQ) Arkansas is literally two inches away from not being here. Max Abmas, Oral Roberts star player, missed a 3-pointer (by inches) that would have had the Golden Eagles move on, and Arkansas go home. Both the Baylor and Arkansas games on Saturday were eerily similar, with both teams being down by seven points at halftime. However, seeing how both teams responded to adversity brings us to this selection on Baylor. The Bears outscored Villanova by 18 in the second half to cover the -7.5 points that they were laying in that game. Arkansas, meanwhile, was barely able to escape by outscoring Oral Roberts by 9 points in the second half (as an 11-point favorite). Keep in mind Oral Roberts comes out of the Summit League, and Villanova is in the Big East – which has some of the best talent in the country. Baylor also only shot 3-19 from 3-point range (16%), whereas they are the #2 three-point shooting team in the country, on average, at 40%. If Baylor had shot anywhere near their potential vs Villanova, as well as played two complete halves of Baylor Bear Basketball, they likely would have won that game by 20+ points vs Villanova. Arkansas is a great team, but they had a couple lackluster starts vs Colgate and Oral Roberts and we do not see Baylor overlooking the Razorbacks at all. The Bears should win this by double digits. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 29, 2021 (MONDAY) Game will start on 10:00 PM EST, NHL Match: Calgary Flames - Winnipeg Jets [WIN!!!] - PICK: WINNIPEG JETS ML for 2 UNITS (2.00 ODDS). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FS7vJnfP.jpg&t=665&c=yQuSjXAuFpXcqw) We roll with the Jets here to get it done on the road. These two teams have split the current series 1-1 but I look for the Jets to bounce back here. Look this is a Jets team that has only lost back to back games twice all season. Needless to say they rebound quickly off a loss. Hellebyuck will be back in net for the Jets which gives the Jets the edge in goal. The Jets have taken 4 of 7 from Calgary this year as they clearly have the better team up and down the entire lineup. The Jets sit just 2 points back of the Leafs for top spot in the division, and with the Leafs playing tonight as well, a win here can put them in a tie or within reach. Calgary has not been a team that can string wins together as they have shown us all season as they are just 2-7 their last 9 games following a win. The Jets are the more consistent team here and we like them to bounce back and grab a win. Flames are 7-15 in their last 22 vs. a team with a winning record. Jets are 8-2 in their last 10 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. #BlackLivesMatter

Pick for March 30, 2021 (TUESDAY) Game will start on 02:45 PM EST, World Cup Qualifiers Match: Wales - Czech Republic [WIN!!!] - PICK: WALES (0) GOAL for 2 UNITS (2.13 ODDS). As per our selection on Wales, this is a very important game for the side as they will likely be fighting tooth and nail with the Czechs for second place in the group and that coveted spot in the 2022 world Cup. This Wales team is a side that is coming off a 3-1 loss to Belgium, but let's face it, that was a result we saw coming as Belgium is one of the best teams in the world. Now they get to return home where they have not lost a competitive match since November 2019 - a run that spans 11 games (9W, 2D). They now face a Czech side that is coming off a solid draw against Belgium, but they were severely outplayed and were lucky to come away with the point. Nonetheless, they'll take it, but this trip to Wales is going to be extremely tough for them to find the motivation to compete for 90 minutes. Fatigue will set in and Wales will be able to seal the game away in the second half. #BlackLivesMatter
