Boston is heading to Orlando riding a nine-game winning streak. I expect the Celtics to win this one outright, but I think it will be close. The Magic match up well against the Celtics.

The Niners are holding opponents to an NFL-best 300.6 yards per game and 16.3 points per game, but I think we’ll see a decent amount of points when they host Dallas in the divisional round Sunday night.

The Oilers had won back-to-back games before taking a 2-1 loss to Winnipeg on New Year’s Eve. I like them to snap back with a strong effort here against a Kraken team that is 1-4 in its last 5 road games. Oilers are 5-0 in their last 5 after scoring 2 goals or less in …

The Eagles would secure the top seed in the NFC playoffs with a win, but they’re still not at desperate for a result as the Saints who need a win to stay in the playoff hunt. Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is listed as doubtful, and I would not be surprised to see more key starters …

The Magic will be playing on no rest following a blowout loss to the Lakers last night. I like them to come back with a strong effort, and I have them as a better team than the Pistons who are coming into this game on a seven-game losing streak and 1-9 in their last 10. …
