prop bets any thoughts?

Here are 3 prop bets I liked. I don't normally make prop bets but this is special game. I put $40 on each prop bet which is decent size wager for me. All prop bets from Pinnacle. I used simple logic on these and I don't care too much about giving up juice. Hopefully I nail at least 2/3 but lets get the sweep!
Who will make the first 3 - pointer?
Illinois -139
I took this bet because Illinois fires so many 3's so I have that advantage. Then you have to think UNC will try and take advantage of their inside presence early in the game. Sean May and more and more of Sean May. So I think this is decent prop bet. Illinois drained their first 2 treys against UL. I think Illinois will shoot 2 treys before UNC attempts their first. Therefore I like this bet.
Who will commit the most turnovers?
North Carolina -2.5 To's -116
I took UNC because they play sloppy ball at times and Illinois is more controlled team. If Felton gets in early foul trouble for UNC (like he often has) then you gotta like this bet more and more.
Team to have most free throws made:
North Carolina -3.5 free throws -130
This one looks too easy. Illinois likes to hang around the perimeter and jack up 3's. UNC can pound it inside and they are better at driving to the hoop. I am picking UNC to win this game so if its close at the end, Illinois will foul UNC. That will guarantee this prop bet a winner!

they all 3 look pretty good. congrats on all your profit from futures. i bet next time you post one you will have some folks jump on board with you.
1-2 on prop bets lost little less than $60 
Illinois missed first 3pt shot attempt, and UNC made their 2nd attempt where ball went in/out and back in. Lucky bounce. Then Illinois made the next 3pt shot I think. Oh well. Guess that was stupid bet based on chance. Thought Illinois would have attempted 2 treys before UNC even attempted 1. UNC had attempted 2 of the first 3 3pt shots.
I had UNC -2.5 in TO's and game ended with UNC 10 TO's vs Illinois 8. That last turnover by Illinois with seconds remaining in game cost me $$$$. :cursin: But if Illinois would have scored on that possession, it could have cost me over 1k in profit. So I can't be too upset.
Free throws was easy $$$. UNC as expected shot and made more free throws.
Should have gone 2-1.
