Analysis

I simply don't think the Rays should be home dogs sitting 21-9 at Tropicana Field (despite being swept recently). I don't love the pitching matchup for them featuring good-looking Red Sox rookie Connelly Early (5-3, 3.26) against Rays bulk guy Mason Englert (0-1, 4.71), but Englert has been pretty solid of late. Just don't think much of Boston and simply want a one-run game. The teams have played a combined 26 of them. Tampa Bay has dominated the AL East at 14-6.

Points

Picked: Jun 7 @ 10:52am

Analysis

DraftKings. After a pedestrian Game 1, Mikal Bridges came out guns blazing in Game 2 of the Finals, scoring 20 points on an efficient 8/13 shooting. He’s now cleared this points line in nine of his last eleven games dating back to the Hawks series, as his late season struggles are now well behind him. The matchup does suit Bridges’ shot profile well, as the Spurs were a bottom five team against mid range jumpers this season. Look for the Knicks wing to continue to make an impact in Game 3. I’d bet this to over 13.5 points (for a partial unit).

PTS + AST + REB

Picked: Jun 7 @ 11:05pm

Analysis

Dylan Harper has arguably been the best of the Spurs' top three guards in this series. His minutes went from 28 in Game 1 to 32 on Friday; he finished a team-best plus-12 in the 105-104 loss. Stephon Castle tweaked his ankle in the fourth quarter of Game 2 and shot 5 of 14, though he continued to play excellent defense on Jalen Brunson. The Spurs can't afford to play all three guards at once given the Knicks' size on the wings, and so far the best pairing has been Harper and De'Aaron Fox. Look for Harper, who grew up in New Jersey as a diehard Knicks fan, to play 30-plus minutes and clear this combo line for the fifth straight time.

Assists

Picked: Jun 8 @ 8:09am

Analysis

Foul trouble limited Josh Hart to only 18 minutes in Game 1. Still, he finished with four assists. That came on the heels of him posting six assists across 27 minutes in Game 2. Over 16 playoff games, he has posted at least five assists nine times. If Hart can avoid foul trouble, he could blow past this over. He is a player who thrives off the energy of the home crowd, which should also help his cause.

Rebounds

Picked: Jun 8 @ 8:19am

Analysis

The Spurs have leaned heavily on Devin Vassell, who has logged at least 36 minutes in both games of this series. He averaged 31 minutes a game during the regular season, but has played 34 minutes a night in the playoffs. The added playing time has resulted in him grabbing at least five rebounds in seven of his last 10 games, including nine rebounds each in the two games against the Knicks. With plenty of minutes likely coming his way again, I’ll take this over.
