Happy Wednesday, Pickswise Nation! We’ve got another great day of betting action after the Mavs kept their series with the Warriors alive and the Rangers pulled level with the Hurricanes. Let’s get right into making your next bet better!
About Last Night
Mavs ain’t done yet
The Mavs entered Game 4 in a do-or-die situation, and they have survived for now. Dallas secured a 119-109 victory over the Warriors that was a lot more comfortable than the score suggests. The Mavericks are now +1900 to pull the full comeback in the Western Conference Finals, while Golden State is -5000.
MLB cappers stay hot
Fresh from going 9-3 on totals on Monday, the Pickswise MLB cappers maintained their momentum by going 11-4 on sides last night and 8-6-1 on totals. The day’s most thrilling game saw the Giants secure a 13-12 victory over the Mets that came right down to the final inning.
Rangers tie it up with Hurricanes
Home advantage proved the key for the Rangers as they hammered the Hurricanes 4-1 at Madison Square Garden to pull level with Carolina in their best-of-7 series. Meanwhile, the Oilers earned a 5-3 win over the Flames to go 3-1 up in the series and cash our bet of Oilers -1.5 at +210 odds!

Best Bet of the Day
Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat Over 203.5
8:30 pm ET, ESPN
Defense finally showed up in this series in Game 4, as for the first time both teams were held below 100 points. That was more a reflection of Miami’s starters only tallying 18 points and the entire team just having an awful shooting night. Don’t expect a repeat of that here. Miami should be better on their home court, but they desperately need to make more threes. Their Game 4 effort was the best three-point shooting they’ve done in this series. If they can get some carryover on that, it will force Boston to push the pace and match them. Read our full game preview for Celtics vs Heat.
