Just as we all expected, Michael McDowell has claimed the first automatic spot into the 2021 NASCAR Cup Championship Playoffs. His win in the rain-delayed and generally-chaotic Daytona 500 means that one of the 16 playoff spots is likely gone, unless we have 17 different race winners this season and McDowell falls below those drivers in points.

The NASCAR schedule looks a lot different this year and there will be a road course at Daytona International Speedway for the second straight time. Last season, DIS got the race from Watkins Glen. This season, DIS has its own and it will be the O’Reilly Auto Parts 253. This race replaces the lost Auto Club Speedway race due to COVID-19 restrictions in California.

We’ll break this one down from all sides and all angles as the drivers get ready for 252.7 miles on the road course at Daytona. We’ll also grab odds from our pals at <a href="http://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/mybookie"><strong>MyBookie Sportsbook</strong></a>.

Reigning champion Chase Elliott is the favorite at +170. This was the Go Bowling 235 last year. That race will return to Watkins Glen in August. Elliott was first, followed by Denny Hamlin, who is the fifth choice at +900. Martin Truex Jr. was third in last year’s race and he is the second favorite at +500. Jimmie Johnson and Chris Buescher rounded out the top five.
<h3><strong><u>On the Road (Course) Again</u></strong></h3>
NASCAR has added some road course racing to the schedule this season in hopes of creating a more exciting product. A lot of oval tracks feature “Follow the Leader” races and officials decided to try and create some more intrigue and drama. This is one of seven road course races scheduled for the 2021 season.

Chase Elliott won on this track last year in this event and is probably the most trustworthy of the racers on road courses. He also won on the Charlotte Roval in the playoffs. Elliott also won the 2019 race at Watkins Glen and was the winner on the Roval that year as well. Truex was the winner at Sonoma back in 2019. Last year’s race was not held because of COVID.
<h3><strong><u>The DIS Triple</u></strong></h3>
There will be three races at Daytona this season. The 500 is completed and the Coke Zero Sugar 400 will be the last race of the regular season. This race is the only one on the road course, which technically has 14 turns and measures 3.61 miles. The drivers will do 70 laps on the track and check in just shy of 253 miles.

Most of the action is inside of what would be the first turn on the speedway track, but this is a little bit of a modified road course for Daytona. All four turns of the speedway track will be used, but a little chicane has been added going towards the finish line to add two more turns. There is also a chicane on the back straightaway.

The first half of the circuit features eight of the 14 turns. The only “turns” on the second half of the track are the chicanes. It will be very fascinating to see if passing takes place on the narrower early turns or out on the regular speedway track where the drivers can pick up some additional speed.

<h3><strong><u>Daytona Data Points</u></strong></h3>
As we talked about last week for the 500, Michael McDowell actually had the highest average finish at Daytona and his patience paid off as he found a way to cross the finish line first. This week, the only data point we have comes from last year’s rescheduled Watkins Glen race.

Chase Elliott won the first stage and the full race. Denny Hamlin won the second stage. Joey Logano ran second for the first stage and ultimately finished ninth. Clint Bowyer ran fourth and second in the two stages, but he will be in the broadcast booth for this one after retiring from the sport. Jimmie Johnson also ran well, but he, too, has retired.

William Byron ran well. He was seventh in the first stage, fourth in the second stage, and finished eighth. Erik Jones was in the top 10 for the first stage and 11th at the end of the race. There were three Hendrick cars in the top 10, two Joe Gibbs cars, and then one each from Roush Fenway, Stewart-Haas, Richard Childress, Penske, and Front Row. In other words, the results were very spread out.
<h3><strong><u>Picks</u></strong></h3>
It isn’t a very sexy pick at +170, but it is pretty clear that Chase Elliott is the best road course racer on the circuit right now. Anything can happen, but there were only four cautions last year in what was a very clean race. There were 13 lead changes, but only across six drivers.

If you want to get a little more risky, Denny Hamlin at +900 isn’t bad, given that he’s generally a quality racer in tight conditions and usually has a strong car with the backing of Joe Gibbs Racing.

The long shot I’ll roll the dice on here is Joey Logano at +1800. Logano was better on road courses a few years ago, including a win at Watkins Glen and a few top-five finishes at Sonoma, but he was second on the Roval last year.

Despite some disturbance in terms of the roster, the Los Angeles Clippers have enough support from bettors. In fact, they are posted as the +247 favorites to win the NBA title by the folks at BetAnySports.

As the second-place squad in the Western Conference, their opponent in the first round of the playoffs is the Dallas Mavericks, but you get the impression that they wouldn't have cared if they had a different position and a different matchup.

The priority for head coach Doc Rivers was in keeping his team healthy in time. And they might just get there in one piece.

We'll see. We know that the two most important cogs in this machine are doign just fine. Paul George had missed the early part of the season, and Kawhi Leonard was coming off an injury himself, leading to Rivers employing an awful lot of "load management," which is NBA jargon for resting players so that they are fresher for the playoffs.

Both George and Leonard averaged better than 25 points per game during the seeding period. But what is critical to point out is that both of those superstars is that they also serve as stars on the defensive end. And in a matchup like this, their best chance to advance will be to keep the Dallas offense a little off-balance.

In the NBA betting odds that have been placed on this series by the folks at <a href="http://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betanysports"><strong>BetAnySports</strong></a>, the Clippers (49-23 SU, 41-31 ATS) are considerable favorites:

<strong>Los Angeles Clippers -620</strong>
<strong>Dallas Mavericks +460</strong>

There may not be a starting lineup that brings more defense to the table than the Clippers do. Aside from Leonard and George, they've got a certifiable pest in the backcourt in Patrick Beverley. And perhaps not enough people are paying attention to the man in the middle.

Ivica Zubac actually tested positive for the coronavirus and got to the bubble a little late. But he has averaged a double-double in the seeding games, and his individual defensive rating is the best on the team. He is the ideal example of a role player who complements the abilities of his more storied teammates. He also blocks shots (2.4 a game), which is what you are hoping for on the part of a seven-foot pivot man on a defensive-minded team.

All that having been said, what could put the Clippers over the top - and informs those who have so much faith in them - is that they can offer some offensive explosiveness as well. You already know what Leonard and George can do, but where they really have the ability to extract the advantage is when they go to the second unit.

They have the most productive bench in the league, averaging better than 50 points a game. What deserves particular attention is the dynamic duo - and they have both had "incidents." Lou Williams left the bubble to go to his grandfather's funeral, and at some point after that was found "making it rain" in an Atlanta strip club. So he's lost some time. So has Montrezl Harrell, who got some extra time away from the team when his grandmother died, may not even be able to go full-throttle yet.

Now think about the fact that both Williams and Harrell have scored more than 18 points per contest, and you know that if these guys can't take their "A" game onto the court, that will leave a void against an opponent that can put points on the board the way the Mavs can.

So while the Clips may have that element that should be able to mitigate what Dallas does well, it would not surprise us if they had a little more trouble than anticipated on their way to the next round.

Milwaukee Bucks vs Chicago Bulls Betting Pick & Prediction 12/23/24

<p>The 2022 NBA Playoffs continue with the Eastern Conference first-round battle from Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, so we have prepared the best Bulls vs. Bucks betting pick along with the latest odds update on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/mybookie/">MyBookie Sportsbook</a>.</p>



<p>The Bucks host the Bulls for Game 2, opening as huge 10-point favorites with a total of 225.0 points. Milwaukee beat Chicago 93-86 in Game 1 this past Sunday and failed to cover a 10.5-point spread in front of the home fans.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>The Bulls desperately need more from their offense     </h2>



<p>The Chicago Bulls (46-37; 43-39-1 ATS) nearly overcame a 16-point deficit in the opener. They made it a one-point game with just 1:36 left on the clock in the fourth quarter, but the Bulls couldn’t find a way to score a single point down the stretch.</p>



<p>Chicago had an awful shooting night in Game 1. The Bulls made 32.3% of their field goals and 18.9% of their 3-pointers (7-for-37). At least, the Bulls turned the ball over only 11 times while posting 16 offensive rebounds.</p>



<p>Nikola Vucevic posted a double-double of 24 points and 17 rebounds, but he shot just 9-for-27 from the field. DeMar DeRozan went terrible 6-for-25, while Zach LaVine went 6-for-19. Both DeRozan and LaVine finished the game with 18 points.</p>



<h2>The Bucks shut down the Bulls             </h2>



<p>The Milwaukee Bucks (52-31; 39-44 ATS) extended their dominance over the Bulls thanks to their mighty defense. They forced Chicago into a ton of tough shots to record their 17<sup>th</sup> victory in the last 18 encounters with the Bulls.</p>



<p>On the other side of the ball, the Bucks shot 40.5% from the field, 26.3% from beyond the 3-point line (10-for-38), and 65.2% from the charity stripe. They need to improve offensively, especially after committing 21 turnovers in the opener.</p>



<p>Giannis Antetokounmpo led the way for the reigning champions with 27 points, 16 rebounds, three assists, and a couple of blocks. Brook Lopez accounted for 18 points, five boards, and two swats, while Khris Middleton added 11 points on a poor 4-for-13 shooting from the field.</p>



<h2>Trends:</h2>



<p><strong>Chicago:</strong></p>



<ul><li>2-6 ATS in the last eight games played in April</li><li>1-4 ATS in the last five playoff games</li></ul>



<p><strong>Milwaukee:</strong></p>



<ul><li>12-6 ATS in the last 18 games against Chicago</li><li>4-1 ATS in the last five playoff games&nbsp;</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-chicago-bulls-vs-milwaukee-bucks-pick">Chicago Bulls vs. Milwaukee Bucks Pick</h2>



<p>The Bucks arguably possess more depth than the Bulls. They are also a better defensive team than Chicago, as the Bulls finished the regular season with the ninth-worst defensive rating in the NBA (113.6 points allowed per 100 possessions).</p>



<p>Milwaukee swept its four-game regular-season series against Chicago, covering three times in the process. Two of those four wins have come by 20-plus points, so I’m going with the Bucks to grab another victory over the Bulls and, hopefully, cover a double-digit spread. Chicago will have a difficult task coping with the Bucks’ length and aggressiveness.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Milwaukee Bucks -10.0 at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>The under is 7-2 in the last nine encounters between the Bulls and Bucks, but four of their last six meetings have produced 224 or more points in the total. I’m not expecting a low-scoring affair like we saw last Sunday in Game 1. The Bulls’ defense is questionable, and the Bucks love to push the ball in transition.</p>



<p>Chicago records 98.3 possessions per 48 minutes (15<sup>th</sup> in the NBA). On the other side, Milwaukee registers 99.9 possessions per 48 minutes (7<sup>th</sup>). The Bulls couldn’t slow down the Bucks in the opener, but both teams enjoyed a horrible shooting night. <strong>Pick: Go over 225.0 points at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>

Major League Baseball (MLB) might not be the most popular sport in the world to wager on, but it still presents a really good betting option. MLB betting comes in many different forms, and this is a season that presents plenty of betting opportunities as well.

Major League Baseball was founded all the way back in 1876, but the league has obviously gone through some major changes since that time. Most of the major rules are still in place, but the way that the game is played is now much different.

There are currently 30 teams in MLB, and every team plays 162 games during the regular season. MLB games typically start at the end of March, or early April, and the World Series wraps up during the first week of November.

MLB teams are split up into leagues and divisions, but there is now more crossover games than ever before. The American League and National League now operate under the same basic rules, and that keeps things similar regardless of what league you are looking at.

Knowing the best MLB betting sites &amp; sportsbooks is also important if you plan to bet on MLB, and this article will explore that as well. By the time you are done reading this article, you should be ready to bet on baseball.
