Jonathan Coachman is joined by fellow sports betting experts Zack Cimini and Larry Hartstein on the Early Edge podcast, powered by SportsLine. Get your best plays for MLB, the NBA playoffs, Euro 2020 and the NHL playoffs for Monday, June 14
After Zack talks about how stunned he was that Denver was swept by Phoenix in the NBA playoff semifinals on Sunday, Larry discusses Milwaukee's resurgence against Brooklyn. He looks ahead to Game 4 of Sixers-Hawks and says the key to tying the series is to push the pace and get more three-point opportunities.
The Coach then issues the SportsLine Plays of the Day, highlighting Martin Green's Euro 2020 picks after he comes off a 4-0 weekend. His featured plays are Sweden +1.5 over Spain at 3 p.m. ET, and for both teams to score at +130. The Coach also backs the site play of the Hawks and Sixers Over 225.5 at 7:30 p.m. ET. In the NHL playoffs, he recommends the selection of the Canadiens +1.5 over the Golden Knights at 9 p.m. ET.
Zack's MLB play for Monday is the seemingly daring pick of the Red Sox -125 over the Blue Jays at 7:10 p.m. ET. Boston suffered its worst loss in five years as Toronto crushed eight homers vs. the Red Sox on Sunday. Nathan Eovaldi is on the hill for Boston and his ability to generate strikeouts will prove to be a difference. Alek Manoah's numbers may look good on the surface but this could turn out to be a forgettable outing for the Jays rookie.
Larry's top NBA playoff prop play is Reggie Jackson Over 2.5 three-pointers in Jazz-Clippers at 10 p.m. ET. "He's gone over this in nine straight playoff games," he says. "He made five out of six in his last game. I don't expect him to shoot over 80 percent again, but he is the third option right now, getting 36 minutes and 29 minutes in the last two games. All the attention has to be on Kawhi Leonard and Paul George."
In MLB, Larry is on the A's -140 over the Angels at 9:40 p.m. ET, as he really likes the matchup for Oakland against struggling Halos pitcher Dylan Bundy.
