Let's start our day with one NBA PROPS. This will be my #1 FREE Play of the DAY, more to come soon! LIKE/RT = TAIL! 1u S.Hauser (Boston Celtics) o8.5 [FanDuel] 1.94 0.20u Hauser to score 5+ points in the 1Q [Bet365] 5.25 0.10u Hauser to score 7+ points in the 1Q [Bet365] 16.00 -Let's start from the minute stances. Both Hauser is playing slightly above 6' mark, with that many minutes on the floor, I'm willingly risking this many units. -The Cavs have been struggling to defend the opposing SU shooting as they're trying to clog their paint. As soon as the opposing BH tries to penetrate inside, they're shrinking the paint with the help defense, willingly gambling with the outside shooting. Their aggressive help defense from the weak side is giving a ton of space for the opposing SU shooters to operate. Because of this kind of defense, the Cavs are allowing the #3 MOST points from the SU situations this season, while they were allowing the #7 MOST points from the SU spots last season. Needless to say that Hauser is one of the BEST SU shooters in the entire league -Brown is dealing with a hamstring injury. This is the 1st leg of the B2B game for the Celtics, so even tho he is PROBABLE for today's game, I won't be surprised if he sits down this one and plays against the Warriors. Even if he suits up and plays, I love this one a lot, as I think the Cavs will try to take off Brown's driving him, so I expect to see a plethora of drive & kick situations for Brown, so hopefully, the Celtics' SU shooters will exploit this kind of coverage on their best player. -Hauser managed to attempt 0,1,2, and 2 shots so far in Q1, but I think he might see 3-4 FGA tonight, so hopefully, he will be able to knock down those shots -If we look at the opposing SU shooters against the Cavs, we can see that they were having a plethora of wide open looks early in the game, and the majority of them managed to score 5+ points: McBride 5pts (5'), Williams 6pts (5'), AJ Green 5pts (7') & Prince 3pts (7' & 1/3), Robinson 6pts (9'). -Hauser managed to score 0,3,2, and 0 points in the 1Q at the beginning of the season. I'm not overly concerned about those numbers, as he will have one of the best MUPs in the league.

Please, @nbastats - you need to fix this, this is clearly Holmgren's rebound! Hartenstein rebound needs to be awarded to Holmgren - line violation happened. Naji missed the 2nd FT once again & HOLMGREN GRABBED IT REGULARLY! @nbastats - please, fix this! Thanks in advance!
