Las Vegas - Back over to London for the UEFA Euro 2020 and gotta throw down a few chips on England on its home pitch against Scotland. Why? The Three Lions are working on a 7-0 PERFECTO and have conceded just one goal during that run. The price, around -$320 depending on where you shop, is tough to swallow, so we'll try a few prop wagers. Gonna sprinkle some cash on England to win 1-0 (+$475), 2-0 (+$450) and 3-0 (+$700).

Las Vegas - First we skate. The Islanders host the Lightning at the OLD BARN, the Nassau Coliseum, after losing game two.

Normally calm and measured, New York coach Barry Trotz went OFF, and threw out a few choice words.

Las Vegas - Which side of the fence are you on? Here are the numbers, you make the call. In the first three games against the Hawks, Joel Embiid averaged 35.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 2.3 blocks and 1.3 steals in 35.5 minutes. But, as we all saw in game four, Joel was dragging his leg around, and did NOT look like the Joel everyone knows and loves. His overall shooting numbers for the game were awful, 4/20 FGs, but ATROCIOUS in the 2nd half with an OH for TWELVE bagel.

Las Vegas - You know that I've been playing AGAINST Matt Harvey almost every time out, and WILL again tonight. If you want me to remind you why, check out these numbers in his last six starts. Got him down for 23 innings pitched, 39 hits and 31 earned runs. That's painful to type. Needed a special calculator to find out that his ERA in that span is 12.13. Cleveland is sending Cal Quantrill to the hill.

Las Vegas - It looks like life is getting easier with every game. The Sixers were squeezed in the first game at home, 128-124, but since then, it's been all Liberty Bell. Game two was a breezy 118-102 win, and then a 127-111 beauty down in Atlanta. The 76ers will be without Danny Green, but Joel and his tiny meniscus tear get an extra day of rest.
