VIP Picks 2/9/24

2-0 last night with the golf play carrying over today. It’s in progress but it doesn’t look like it’s going to hit.. So we don’t look at it as starting today 0-1, we look at it as 2-1 yesterday and today is a new day. 


PGA:

7:30 EST

Round 2 Matchup

Jordan Spieth Over Ricky Fowler (-160)🥈

  • I hate when there are multiple rounds per day in an event but I’ll take Spieth over Fowler whether they play tonight, tomorrow, or during the middle of the night.

  • Spieth beat Fowler by 5 strokes in Round 1 going -3 compared to +2. 

  • Spieth shot a 63 in Round 2 here last year and he’s finished 6 and 4 in 2 of the last 3 years.

  • Fowler has struggled in recent weeks finishing 47, 56, & missed a cut.

  • Let’s go with Spieth over Fowler in Round 2.


NHL:

8:30 EST

Parlay

Rangers ML / Oilers ML (-123) 🥇

  • Take the free money.

  • The Rangers have won 2 in a row to start the second half and remain in the Top 3 of the Eastern Conference. They will take on the Blackhawks who have lost 5 in a row and are 2-8 over their last 10. The Rangers beat the Blackhawks 4-1 on Jan 4 and really dominated that game. It should be more of the same tonight.

  • Then the Oilers will look to bounce back after having their 16 game winning streak snapped. They still won 16 in a row before that. They will take on the Ducks who they have already beaten twice this season winning 8-2 and 7-2 for a total score of 15-4. Look for them to get the win tonight.


NBA:

8:00 EST

Player Prop

Miles Bridges Threes Made Over (2.5) 🥉

  • Bridges has turned in back to back 40+ point games and his three point attempts have doubled in those games going 6 for 11 and 5 for 10. 

  • Lonzo Ball is out tonight so Bridges will be the #1 option for the Hornets

  • The Bucks have been playing some pretty bad defense lately allowing 129, 114, 123, 117, & 119 with 21, 8, 17, 16, & 12 threes allowed.

  • I like Bridges in this spot because he should be shooting freely with the Bucks projected to pull away.

  • His points prop is another solid option but the official play is over 2.5 threes made.


10:00 EST

Nuggets (+110) 4️⃣

  • The Nuggets are on the second night of a back to back but they have gone 6-2 in those games this season. One of those losses was against this same Kings team but it was after a battle with the Suns the night before.

  • The Kings have lost back to back games including a loss to the Pistons which is pathetic and they’ve allowed 130+ points in those games.

  • The Nuggets are 8-2 over their last 10 so they are playing good ball.

  • The Nuggets uncharacteristically allowed 35 points in the 4th quarter against the Kings in the last meeting. DOn’t expect that again.

  • Jokic had 36 points and a triple double in the first meeting so look for a big game from him.
