After trading punches in their Western Conference semifinal, the St.
Louis Blues and Dallas Stars will meet in the decisive Game 7 this
Wednesday (8 PM ET, NBCSN). Dallas staved off elimination Monday night
with a 3-2 victory in Game 6, cashing in as +155 away dogs despite just
14 shots on goal. The road team has won four times in this series –
twice in St. Louis, and twice in Dallas. St. Louis is currently listed
as a -115 favorite on the moneyline and the total is sitting at 5.

The big question on everyone's mind: Will Tyler Seguin suit up for the
Stars? He hasn't played since Game 2 of the opening round versus the
Minnesota Wild, when Seguin (33 goals, 73 points during the regular
season) was ineffective in his return from a partially torn Achilles
tendon. It remains unclear whether he'll be available for Game 7.
Veteran fourth-liner Travis Moen is also iffy for Wednesday's game with
an undisclosed injury.



The Blues are unusually healthy for this time of year, but with Monday's
loss, they fall to 1-3 in elimination games. The lone victory was the
game that counted the most: Game 7 of the first round, when they beat
the defending Stanley Cup-champion Chicago Blackhawks 3-2 as +100 home
dogs.

The Western Conference Semifinals showdown between the Oklahoma City
Thunder and the San Antonio Spurs continues this Tuesday night at the
AT&T Center with Game 5 of what has become a best-of-three affair. BetAnySports
has opened the Spurs as 6.5-point home favorites in the 8 p.m. (ET) tip
on TNT and the total for the game has been set at 199.5. The total has
held steady but the point spread has creeped up to to the Spurs -7.



The Thunder were able to ties this series at two games apiece with a
huge fourth quarter effort in Sunday’s 111-97 win in Game 4 at home as
slight two-point favorites. The total in that game went OVER 199. This
followed a tough four-point loss at home in Game 3 as 2.5-point
underdogs on BetAnySports’ closing betting line. The total stayed UNDER 200 in that contest, but it has gone OVER in five of their last seven games.



Kevin Durant led the charge in Sunday’s win and after outscoring the
Spurs on his own in the final quarter of that game he ended the day with
a game-high 41 points. Durant has been Oklahoma City’s leading scorer
both in the regular season (28.2 points) and through nine postseason
games with an average 26.8 points. Russell Westbrook has been a close
second with 24.2 points per game and the team as a whole is averaging
106.3 points in the playoffs.



San Antonio bounced back from a stunning 98-97 loss at home in Game 2 as
a 7.5-point favorite by covering on the road in Game 3. It is now 5-3
against the spread in eight postseason contests with the total staying
UNDER in five of those games. The Spurs’ loss at home in Game 2 was just
their second in 45 games at the AT&T Center this season. They come
into this contest with a profitable 26-19 record ATS on their home
court.



Tony Parker turned back the clock a bit in Sunday’s loss with a
team-high 22 points, but it has been the combination of LaMarcus
Aldridge and Kawhi Leonard that has done the most damage in the
postseason with each player averaging just over 22 points a game. This
was the first time the Spurs allowed more than 100 points in these
playoffs and they are averaging 103.8 points a game.



The back and forth nature of this series points in the direction of San
Antonio for Tuesday night and I would have to agree. Lay the 6.5 points
on BetAnySports’ current betting line and take the Spurs to cover at home.

The fans at Moda Center will be ready for another high scoring game
between the Golden State Warriors and the Portland Trail Blazers when
they take their seats on Monday. Steph Curry, who is said to be the
2015-16 league MVP, is doubtful for the matchup but that shouldn't stop
the talent laden Warriors from playing at a high caliber against the
Trail Blazers.

The Trail Blazers were a 120-108 winner in their most recent outing at
home against the Warriors. They covered the +3-point spread as
underdogs, while the total score (228) made winners of OVER bettors.



Golden State was a 120-108 loser in its last match on the road against

The Toronto Raptors and the Miami Heat will square off in what should be
another close battle at AmericanAirlines Arena. The first 3 games of
this series have been knock-down drag-outs and there is no reason to
think Game #4 will any different. As usual in games like this it will
probably come down to free throws, turnovers and defensive rebounding.



Oddsmakers currently have the Heat listed as 5½-point favorites versus the Raptors, while the game's total is sitting at 192.



Miami was a 95-91 loser in its last match at home against the Raptors.
They failed to cover the -5.5-point spread as favorites, while the total
score of 186 sent PUSH bettors to the payout window.



Last time out for Toronto, they were a 95-91 winner as they battled the
Heat on the road. The Raptors covered in the match as a +5.5-point

After getting blown out in Game 1, the Thunder took advantage of some
uncharacteristically poor shooting by San Antonio in Game 2. Then OKC
withstood a late run by the Spurs to win 98-97 as 8.5-point road dogs on
the closing line, up from +7.5 at the open. Despite the victory,
Oklahoma City remains a +230 underdog to win this series and advance to
the Western Final.





Both teams have their full rosters active for Game 3. Up to this point,
the star of the show has been LaMarcus Aldridge, who scored 79 points
for San Antonio over the first two games, and even sank both his 3-point
attempts – the only two he's made all year after shooting 0-for-16
during the regular season. Kevin Durant (44 points for Oklahoma City)
and Russell Westbrook (43 points) have combined to shoot 2-of-13 from
long range for the Thunder.

The fans at Air Canada Centre will be treated to game 2 of the Eastern
Conference semi-finals between the Miami Heat and the Toronto Raptors
when they take their seats on Thursday. Game one was a knock-down
drag-out and you should expect the same in this one. The Heat have
announced no Chris Bosh for the rest of the playoffs and the Raptors
need to learn to win close games in key situations.

In their last action, Toronto was a 102-96 loser at home against the
Heat. They failed to cover the -3.5-point spread as favorites, while the
combined score (198) was profitable news for OVER bettors.
