Basketball

The Los Angeles Lakers staved off elimination with a 103-98 win over the Boston Celtics. The Celtics covered the spread and the Over hit. In last night’s game Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom showed up and actually contributed; first time all series. Ray Allen struggled from the field and Kevin Garnett did not play up to his normal ability. Combine that with Kendrick Perkins not being in the line-up and there is your story line for Game 5.

Game 6 is set for Tuesday in Boston where the line is currently Boston -3.5 and the Total is set at 192.5. Now help me understand something. The Lakers are no less than a 7.5 point favorite for the 3 games in LA. In the first two games in Boston the Celtics were favored once and were a dog in the other game. The Celtics are 5-0 ATS in this series; yet the line is inly 3.5?!?! I don’t get it, but I will take advantage of it. The Celtics will win tomorrow night and cover . . . easily. Early pick for you, Celtics 5-stars.

Baseball

Interleague at AL: The Tigers stay hot sweeping a 3-game set from the Dodgers, winning yesterday 5-4 . . . The Indians beat the Padres 7-3 . . .

The Rockies took 2 of 3 from the White Sox winning 5-3 . . . The Nationals beat the Mariners 6-2 . . . The Angels defeated the Braves 2-0.

Interleague at NL: The Rangers and Mets split a DH. Texas won 8-7 and the Mets won the second one 4-2 . . . . The Red Sox 9-0 over the Reds . . . The Brewers avoided a sweep by the Twins wining 4-2 . . . The Yankees scored 13 and held the Astros scoreless . . . The A’s swept the Bay this weekend, last night it was 5-3 OAK . . . The Roayls had a 5 run 4th and beat the Diamondbacks 8-3.

National League: In the lone non-Interleague game the Cardinals took advantage of the Phillites inability to throw the baseball and won in 10, 7-6.
