I’m a sucker for buying in to the LeBron and Luka hype….they ain’t gonna do shit if they can’t beat a bad Jazz team. Even fucking around they should still beat them. Then Jokic missed by 4 points because Jesus Murray scored 55 points last night. Shaking my head over here and now chasing on the week. Last night of NBA before the All Star Break and starting with some PGA.

Round 1 Score
Sepp Straka Under (72.5) 🥈
The weather is the obvious x factor here with wind and rain in the forecast for today. But Straka is teeing off at 9:52 am PST and the rain isn’t supposed to start until 4 pm.
He went over 72.5 in both of his rounds here last year and missed the cut but I’m focused on the way he’s been playing this season where he has gone under 72.5 in ALL 20 of his rounds.
The risk is if the weather shifts on us but based on the current forecast, he should be able to mange under 72.5 for us.

Thunder ML / Memphis ML (-137) 🥇
Thunder are rolling into the All Star break on a 7 game winning streak which they can extend to 8 tonight. They will face the Timberwolves who they already beat 113-105 this season. Nothing from the first meeting scares me about this matchup - SGA scored 40 so I expect him to carry the Thunder to a win tonight.
20-4 Memphis will be on the road vs a 12-12 South Florida team that has lost 3 of their last 5. USF lost by 15 in the only game they have played vs a ranked opponent but the 12-12 record vs mediocre competition has me liking #14 Memphis who has also played mediocre competition but they have cruised for the most part and are 7-1 on the road.
