The third hour of VSiN Best Bets' 'Follow The Money' podcast on April 28, 2026, dives deep into NBA playoff betting strategies, with a focus on the Celtics vs. Sixers series and the Spurs vs. Blazers matchup. Julian Edlo joins the show to break down key props, including OG Anunoby’s points and rebounds, Scoot Henderson’s resurgence after a scoreless game, and Drew Holiday’s elevated role due to increased minutes. The hosts express skepticism about Detroit’s team total despite a high line, citing their poor offensive output in the series. A major segment centers on the NCAA’s announced expansion of both men’s and women’s March Madness to 76 teams, sparking debate over the quality of play and the potential for more games on Tuesday and Wednesday. Derek Stevens, CEO of Circa Las Vegas, joins to confirm the expansion is on track and express enthusiasm for Las Vegas hosting the new early-round games. The episode also covers NFL draft betting irregularities, the controversial legality of side deals, and the emotional toll of sports betting culture. Final betting picks include props on Paul George, Peyton Pritchett, and team totals, with strong skepticism toward Detroit’s chances and praise for the Magic’s defensive execution.
Betting on the Celtics to win the first quarter and the game outright is a strong play due to their dominant early-game performance.
Scoot Henderson’s recent scoreless game is likely a fluke; his prior form and role make him a solid bet for 15+ points.
Drew Holiday’s increased minutes (38.3 MPG in playoffs) make him a high-value prop candidate across multiple categories.
Detroit’s team total of 110.5 is overvalued—bet under 110.5 every game given their consistent scoring struggles.
The NCAA’s expansion to 76 teams (men’s and women’s) is confirmed, with early-round games likely to be hosted in Las Vegas.

NBA Playoff Betting: Celtics vs. Sixers
“I'm going to stay away from the number because again, you can make a very strong case either way. However, I don't think the Celtics drop the ball here.”
OG Anunoby & Scoot Henderson Props
“I'm going to throw out the scoreless game and, you know, maybe it was a little fluky. He started off shooting cold, probably wouldn't have gotten there anyway...”
Detroit Pistons & Team Totals
“They haven't shown me they can score. What's the Pistons team total? 110 and a half. They can't figure it out with this Magic defense.”
NCAA Tournament Expansion to 76 Teams
“I don't want to see six and 12 conference teams at 15 and 16 records on the season battling it out. That's don't reward mediocrity.”
