Description
NBA Play-In Recap & First-Round Series Bets | Bottom Line Bombs (Tax Day Live)
CJ Sullivan hosts Bottom Line Bombs live on Tax Day from SGPN Studios, recapping NBA play-in action (going 2-0 on Heat +5.5 and Portland +3.5) while noting overtime beats and controversy around LaMelo Ball’s trip on Bam Adebayo, plus Amazon Prime streaming issues. He previews tonight’s plays (Sixers -1.5/moneyline, Paul George points ladder, Kelly Oubre over 1.5 made threes) and builds an Underdog entry with Oubre threes, Chris Dunn steals, and De’Anthony Melton points. CJ gives first-round series bets including Timberwolves +1.5 games (with sprinkles on Wolves in 6, Nuggets in 7, and a buzzer beater prop), Rockets in 5 vs Lakers, Cavaliers in 5 vs Raptors, and Knicks -1.5 games vs Hawks. He also discusses NFL Draft timing and reacts to Diana Rossini’s resignation and broader sports journalism integrity debates.
