Here’s what you absolutely can’t miss this upcoming week in sports:
1. NHL – Tampa Bay Lightning at Montreal Canadiens (7/1/21 at 8pm)
Friday night will be Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final series. The Tampa Bay Lightning lead the series 2-0. Although it would be nice to see the Montreal Canadiens win a game, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Lightning won the series 4-0 at the rate they are playing. The Lightning are currently at -133 on the moneyline heading into Friday night’s game, which I obviously like. Tampa Bay is also the current favorite to win the Stanley Cup at -1205.
On Wednesday, Tampa Bay’s Andrei Vasilevskiy finished the game with 42 saves, giving up just one goal. So impressive. I have no doubt that the Lightning will win this series, as they are just the stronger team. So, bet on the Lightning
2. NBA – Milwaukee Bucks at Atlanta Hawks (7/3/21 at 8:30pm)
The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Atlanta Hawks 123-112 on Thursday night. They now lead the series 3-2. The Bucks will face the Hawks for Game 6 on Saturday night. The Hawks are 2.5-point home favorites heading into Saturday. They are also -140 on the moneyline. I really think this series will have a Game 7, so I like the Hawks on the moneyline at -140.
So, who will win the series and advance to the NBA Finals to face the Phoenix Suns? I like the Bucks to win the series. Why? Well, the Bucks have demonstrated that they are more than just Giannis Antetokounmpo. Brook Lopez, Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday and Bobby Portis finished with 33 points, 26 points, 25 points and 22 points, respectively. Atlanta’s Trae Young will likely be a game-time decision on Saturday. If he does play, I think the game could be close. However, I am still confident in the Bucks with or without Giannis.
