Las Vegas - Gonna kick it off in Lisbon at the UEFA Champions League semi-final between Bayern and Lyon. The Bavarians are a gigantic -$450 favorite, and after watching them HUMILIATE Barcelona 8-2, that price almost seems cheap. Especially when you look at their overall body of work. If you're sitting, lemme tell you that Bayern has won 24 of its last 25 matches in all competitions, the exception being a draw against RB Leipzig.

Las Vegas - Yea Portland was 7-2 in the bubble restart. Yea Damian Lillard is phenomenal. Yea the Lakers looked ugly with a 3-5 mark. Of course, there is a however. However, the Blazers were fighting for their playoff lives while the Purple & Gold were pretty much locked in with the #1 seed.

Las Vegas - If you're thinking NBA, we have a Play-In game for the 8th seed in the Western Conference, with the Blazers now -6 points over the Grizzlies. Absolutely LOVE Damian Lillard. He has put the entire Portland team on his shoulders, winning five of seven since the restart to grab the 8th seed. But lets drill down. Specifically, the last three wins. They beat the 76ers, 124-121, a Philly team without Ben Simmons, and NO Joel Embiid after only six minutes.
