1-2 and it feels terrible after how good of a week we are riding but on the positive side we are still 8-3 and on a 15-3 run overall…pretty fucking good. On to Friday Night to get back to winning.

*KARL ANTHONY TOWNS is questionable. Only bet this parlay IF he is confirmed to be playing. I will tweet/instagram story the update when I see it.
Parlay
Celtics ML / Knicks ML (-159) 🥇💪
The Celtics took their first L of the season last game and had their worst shooting night of the season but STILL scored 132 points.
They have back to back games vs the Hornets who they should blowout both nights so a good parlay piece. Tonights spread is 10.5 but we just need them to win straight up.
The Knicks are 2-2 but they have played 4 of the top teams in the East from a season ago. They get to play the Pistons who went 14-68 last season.
I don’t see anyone on the Pistons who will be able to stop KAT who is coming off of a 44 point game. Again, if you missed the note above, we are only betting this if KAT is playing with a left wrist sprain that should not effect his shooting because he’s righty.
Knicks should win this game for us.

Pacers (-4.5) 🥈
The Pacers are coming off of a thrilling win against the Celtics and they will look to ride that momentum tonight on the road in New Orleans.
The Pelicans are dealing with some injuries with their #2 scorer CJ McCollum OUT, #4 scorer Jordan Hawkisn questionable with back spasms 5 games into his NBA career, #5 scorer is DeJounte Murray is OUT after just having hand surgery after his first game. Then down low behind Zion they’ve got both big guys Missi and Theis listed as game time decisions.
The Pels are going to be missing a lot of offense and this Pacers team will NOT be lacking offense. They led the league in scoring last season at 121.6 ppg and they are coming off of a 135 point game. The Pelicans have the 3rd worst offense in the league to this point at 105.2.
I won’t say anything nice about the Pacers defense but I feel like their fire power will be plenty to cover -4.5 vs the Pelicans who have lost 3 in a row with those losses coming by 14, 18, & 22.

Jets (-155) 🥉
It’s juicy but it would be even more if Hellebuyck was in net. The backup Eric Comrie is expected to start and he is 2-0 on the season with a 3.0 GA/G.
The Jets are off to the best start in the league at 9-1 and they bounced back from their first loss nicely with a 6-2 win over the Red Wings on Wednesday.
The Blue Jackets are 5-3-1 so better than last season but the Jets are the better team here and that’s why they are still a large favorite even with the backup goalie in tonight.
