143-0
Las Vegas - Breakfast at Wimbledon with Novak Djokovic looking for his 20th major to tie Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. A win would also put Djoker 3/4 of the way to the single season Grand Slam which has not happened since the GREAT GREAT Rod Laver did it back in 1969. Novak WILL drop the Italian Matteo Berrettini, but not prepared to lay $500 to win back $100.
Move 15 miles north to Wembley Stadium for the UEFA Euro 2020 soccer final between England and Italy. Gonna pick the Three Lions but must advise you to take this selection with a grain or two of salt, since I lived in England for a year, and love everything about the United Kingdom. Thinking that the loss of talented 28 year old left-back Leonardo Spinazzola is gonna hurt the Italians. Why? The other two defenders, 36 year old Giorgio Chiellini and 34 year old Leonardo Bonucci, at a combined age of 70, might have trouble keeping up with the young English speed demons. Like 27 year old Harry Kane, 26 year old Raheem Sterling and 19 year old Bukayo Saka. Speed usually wins, so we're gonna throw a few chips at the Lions for the W and a few more at the draw (+$195) after 90 minutes.
Bouncing back to Milwaukee and gonna take a small taste of the Bucks -4 points over the Suns. Saw Devin Booker in an interview saying that Phoenix is gonna approach the next game as a game seven, but this IS a game seven for Milwaukee. Why? Here's the question. Has any NBA team come back from a 3-0 deficit to win a series? The answer is NO! The stat is like 143-0. Yea, I'll scream, ONE HUNDRED FORTY THREE & OH!!! So, this is the proverbial MUST WIN for the Bucks. You know that Giannis is gonna get his, and if they can get a 20+ point performance from Khris Middleton, then it's a cover for the kids from Brew Town.
