Baylor vs. Gonzaga
Jared Butler (Baylor) MORE 16.5 Points - Drew Timme (Gonzaga) MORE 21.5 Points
This expects to be a fun up-tempo game. Gonzaga was able to suck UCLA into its faster-paced style but a funny thing happened. UCLA was able to adapt and nearly pulled off the upset. It took a miracle shot in overtime for Gonzaga to advance to the championship game. That overtime allowed us to hit yet another prop. As for Baylor, their relatively easy win over Houston pushed that side of the prop to the brink but Butler delivered just barely -- he got to 17 points at the last possible minute with a late garbage-time basket. Whew! Even with Baylor scoring in the 80's, it took a little luck just to hit the MORE. That is the kind of sweat one endures when playing to the prop. It will be more of the same, even against Gonzaga, tonight. However, again, we will ride the wave and opt for the MORE.
Drew Timme finds ways to get close to the basket and that will occur more and more against Baylor. Gonzaga needed overtime but scored over 90 points once again in the National Semifinal. Timme, by the way, has 22+ points in four straight games since the Norfolk St. walkover in Round 1. This will also be a close prop. The one thing that I will always say about Monkey Knife Fight is they have their numbers in working order. It will be a challenge and that is what makes this so much fun. Timme has paid off for us four straight times so we will roll the bones on the biggest stage one more time. Yes, we are taking the MORE naturally on Monday night.
A win here pays three times your wager.

Davion Mitchell (Baylor) MORE 5.5 Assists - Drew Timme (Gonzaga) MORE 21.5 Points
The guard went ice cold against Houston shooting-wise (just 4 for 11) but was passing the ball with excellent efficiency against a Houston team that was playing sound defense going into the National Semifinal. Overall, Mitchell had 11 assists in the game and that type of effort will be needed against Gonzaga on Monday night. Mitchell is more than capable of delivering on the big stage. Both teams will press the pace which means transition assists will be big. Why is this set at 5.5? Partially, when one looks at averages and sees Mitchell averaged 5.5 assists per game all season, one goes hmm. Either way, the point guard for Baylor has above-average vision and sees the game like an NBA point guard. Watch how he dissects Gonzaga's defensive coverage and take the MORE here.
The second half of this prop features Drew Timme and as we mentioned above. It will be close but Timme has been our most consistent player all tournament. He may teeter close but has again delivered on every MORE or LESS prop so far. Again, the MORE is the pick here.
A win here also pays three times the wager. Good luck tonight and thanks for playing with us this tournament season.
