Monday NBA Free play. My selection is on New Orleans plus the points over Oklahoma City at 8:30 pm et on Monday. We'll take a flyer on the Pelicans as they look to avoid the sweep at the hands of the Thunder on Monday. Note that Oklahoma City is just 17-21 ATS in its last 38 games as a road favorite including a 14-15 ATS mark in that situation this season. The Thunder are a long-term 5-10 ATS when coming off eight or more consecutive victories, as is the case here. Meanwhile, the Pelicans are 32-21 ATS in their last 53 contests following consecutive ATS losses including a 9-6 ATS record this season. Take New Orleans. |

Sunday NHL Free play. My selection is on the 'under' between Edmonton and Los Angeles at 10:30 pm et on Sunday. We've yet to see an 'under' result in this series but I think we will on Sunday night in Los Angeles. The Kings are allowing just 2.6 goals per game on home ice this season but they gave up six in Game 3. Note that the 'under' is a perfect 3-0 with the Kings seeking revenge for a loss by four goals or more against an opponent this season. The 'under' is also 21-15 in Los Angeles' last 36 contests when seeking revenge for a loss in which it scored one goal or less, as is the case here. The Oilers have seen the 'under' go 7-3 after scoring four goals or more in three consecutive games this season. Take the under. |

OVER 210½ -110 |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
My selection is on the 'over' between Minnesota and Phoenix at 9:30 pm et on Sunday. In what could be the Suns last stand in this series, we'll call for another relatively high-scoring contest on Sunday. Note that the 'over' is now 78-53 in Minnesota's last 131 road games including a 23-19 mark this season. The 'over' is also 24-21 in the Timberwolves last 45 contests following three straight victories including a 13-6 record this season. The Suns have seen the 'over' go a perfect 7-0 off consecutive double-digit losses over the last three seasons including a 3-0 mark this season. The 'over' is also 9-7 in Phoenix's last 16 contests when seeking revenge for a double-digit home loss against an opponent including a 5-2 record in that situation this season. Take the over (8*). |

My selection is on Los Angeles over Edmonton at 10:30 pm et on Sunday. We won with the Kings in Game 2 of this series and the Oilers in Game 3. I'll switch gears once again and back Los Angeles as it looks to bounce back from a 6-1 drubbing two nights ago. Note that the Oilers are a long-term loser at 73-83 (-29.2 net games) in their last 156 games after scoring six goals or more in their previous contest including a 6-8 (-8.0 net games) mark in that situation this season. The Kings are 50-36 (+26.4 net games) in their last 86 games when seeking revenge for a loss by four goals or more against an opponent. Additionally, Los Angeles is a perfect 3-0 this season when coming off a game in which it allowed six or more goals. Take Los Angeles (8*). |

MLB | Apr 28, 2024 Diamondbacks vs Mariners |
UNDER 7½ -115 |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
My selection is on the 'under' between Arizona and Seattle at 4:10 pm et on Sunday. The 'under' has cashed in five straight games involving the Mariners while the Diamondbacks are on a three-game 'under' streak of their own. I look for those streaks to continue for at least one more day. Brandon Pfaadt gets the start for Arizona. He owns a 3.92 FIP and 1.17 WHIP this season. The Mariners rank 27th in baseball in home OPS. Logan Gilbert will counter for Seattle. He's off to a fine start to the season with a 3.34 FIP and 0.80 WHIP. The D'Backs are middle of the pack in terms of road OPS but it's worth noting that Gilbert has held current Arizona hitters to 8-for-36 at the plate with just one extra-base hit (a Randal Grichuk home run). Take the under (8*). |
SERVICE BIO |

Sean Murphy made his professional debut as lead handicapper for Pat Miller Sports in 2003, continuing on with The Miller Group from 2006 through 2009. Sean broke away to found his own sports service in September 2009 and has now delivered 12 of 17 winning NFL seasons. Sean’s also cashed big in NCAA Football, as he’s won each of the last 3 seasons, recording wins with 57% of his overall bets. A key factor in Sean’s success is his knack for Over/Unders, which is no surprise given Sean’s reputation as a ‘numbers guru.’ Indeed, Sean’s knack for handling numbers is deep-rooted. He owns a business degree, with a major in finance, and is a member of the prestigious Beta Gamma Sigma honor society for business students and scholars. Although Sean took a circuitous route to become a professional handicapper, sports betting has been a part of his life for as long as he can remember. In fact, he still fondly recalls his first successful venture into sports betting – a winning three-game NFL ‘Pro-Line’ parlay (offered by the Canadian lottery) when he was just 12 years old. Sean — along with the rest of his 7th grade class — was hooked. His passion for sports is unmatched. The phrase “find something you love to do and you’ll never ‘work’ a day in your life” is Murph's mantra. Sean's love for numbers, combined with his passion for sports, makes a career in sports handicapping the perfect fit. After building The Miller Group from the ground up, and turning it into one of America’s most respected handicapping services, Sean has continued to prosper as an independent, thanks to an honest approach and strong belief in delivering value to the customer. Sean’s selections are based on his extensive knowledge of the game, and his approach is both situational and statistical. He prides himself on going against the majority and thinking outside the box, and his unique analysis keeps his clients coming back. When you purchase one of Sean’s selections, you can always count on insightful and expert information to back it up. Sean rates all of his plays from 8* to 10* with free plays qualifying as 8* releases, and the majority of his selections warranting a 10* designation. As you would expect, the higher the rating, the stronger the play. |
