Why These Picks?

ARIĀ Cardinals v DALĀ Cowboys:Ā Dallas has cashed the Over in their last 5 straight games, friends – and 6 of the 8 outings they’ve had have gone well over 54 points. Between the Cardinals being rested, Kyler Murray (potentially?) coming back, and the juggernaut offense but lacklustre defense of the Cowboys…this encounter should be no exception to the high-scoring trend. To boot, the Cardinals have lost their last 5 straight; I just don’t think either squad has the defensive chops to keep this total from going through the roof. My money’s on the Over to cash this evening.

MIN Timberwolves v BKN Nets: The Brooklyn Nets have not won a game yet this season, and they come into today’s encounter on the tail end of a back-to-back. 4 of their 6 losses have been by at last 9 points – and yes, they’ve had a tough schedule to start the season, but the Timberwolves may prove to be ā€œfinal bossā€ level difficulty even without Anthony Edwards. Don’t get me wrong, Minnesota has had struggles of their own, but they should make light work of the Nets. Give me the visitors to cover.

PIT Penguins v TOR Maple Leafs: 4 of the last 5 meetings between these two squads have seen at least 6 goals, and with Anthony Stolarz in net this evening for the Leafs, I’d say the Over is definitely the lean. 7 of Stolarz’s last 9 starts have cashed the Over (and to be honest, I wouldn’t be surprised by a Pittsburgh upset…) I’m wagering on a high-scoring encounter here.
