Fun bet. Maxey had 40+ 4x each of the last 3 seasons, including vs Boston this year, and 1 in his 5 playoff games already a couple years ago. With Embiid out and his floater working vs drop he should cook

Somehow Jokić has hit this bet in 11 straight series. Absurd player. Had 16 and 19 vs Minn already this year. Had 17+ reb in 25% of his games over 32 minutes. I make this -400.

Boston huge reb edge vs Philly. Last 13g Tatum 10.8rpg in 34mpg. Last two playoffs 10.2rpg. He’s avg 10rpg in 8 of his last 9 playoff series. Reb effort always goes up, and seems to be playing bigger role nearer basket post Achilles. 10rpg looks better than 50/50, 12 in play, was over 11 last two series.

Tobias 8rpg on 14+ chances a game, reb usually up in playoffs. Ausar 7.7 in 11.7, high effort & Duren getting limited. Both guys should see their minutes slowly increase the longer the series goes, likely more reb chances as buckets are harder to come by. Play both 8rpg together, likely only one has a shot late but these # are way off. 🤝 @JoeDellera

Betting Highlights
Favorite Bet of All-Time
Bet the Texans to go from worst to first in the division, and even doubled down with a Will Anderson DROY cherry on top. Joe Flacco CPOY +25000 and Nuggets over Heat +1600 exact outcome were fun, too!
Most Heartbreaking Bet
MVP bets. Tom Brady +1400 in 2021, odds-on favorite in December, but shutout vs. Saints on SNF. Nikola Jokic +900 in 2023, rightful leader all the way, but the moron voters get bored and go with Embiid last minute. Brock Purdy +5000 in 2024, odds-on favorite on Christmas, but the voters are too proud to vote for him or Dak. You're killin' me, Smalls!
