Speaker 1: Well, I just asn't l right here. What's going on? Everybody?
Welcome into another episode of Prophet Picks. If you are new,
we always start the show by being transparent, and yesterday
we didn't have a show. We didn't have any games.
I'll just say the day before I did have a
lout of action, but my five percent play made it
a winning day. So I always loved that five percent
was on the Dream and I'm really proud of that
that that playing right up that I had in that game.
So I'll pat myself on the back for a one time.
You know, it's good to be back with you. How
you doing here today?
Speaker 2: Yeah? That Dream Game it worked out, didn't it, Ski?
I had a little piece of that myself. With the
Dream Team total over seventy nine and a half just
seemed like it was too low. Got to eighty five.
I know you had a number the other day of
how many times on the road they've gotten to eighty
five or better? They did it again? Solid win there
last night. No WNBA, but I was involved in I
believe it not the CFL, the Canadian Football League, which
also handicapping. How about this way to win?
Speaker 1: Ski?
Speaker 2: I win because a guy returns a missed field goal
yards for.
Speaker 1: The plus four right plus four.
Speaker 2: And there it goes win the game. When the team
total win the full game, win everything. So I'm yeah,
So we recommended the team total. It worked out for
out of us, so we had to want to know
look forward to today.
Speaker 1: Was that game already over the full game total before
that player or no it wasn't. Yeah, that was that.
I mean that changed a lot of tickets right there,
and a lot of tickets.
Speaker 2: Dog winner over winner.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I'm happy in one of your favorite I
know one in one of my other good friends. He
was so happy. He was texting be. I was like,
why is he so excited? But then I saw the
play and I was like, Okay, I get it.
Speaker 2: Now looked like we were dead in the water.
Speaker 1: That's good stuff there. Shout out to everybody in the
chat Mark b Man, Titan, CT Kylie Patrick, everybody ready
to make some money. So we got a big slate
five games. Let's get right to it like we do.
We'll go in rotation order. That means six five, six,
twenty six opened up minus two and a half for
the Sparks. We've seen a big move already five and
a half. Now at most shops total open one seventy
eight and a half and it's holding steady at about Actually, no,
I see, we'll call it one seventy eight. It's between
you know, we'll call one seventy eight the consensus. As
far as who is available, nobody on the injury report
for the Sparks for the Wings, though I do see
page game time, looks like she's listed as probable. Asaiah James,
same thing, and Enrique A. Gumbo Wale is out looking
at this one here, both teams are well arrested. I mean,
everybody had yesterday off. It's a chance for the Wings
to get some double digit and season revenge. They did
just win their last game versus Fever as an nd
adult noa Rique, look what happens, ROVI know? Can they
do it again here versus Sparks, who I know desperately
he wins in this playoff race.
Speaker 2: Yes, so for me obviously, And I know you've said
the same thing generally where Sparks games are concerned, it's
a one way ticket. At this point in time. We
know who they are. They're the same team just about
every game except for one slip up against Golden State
where they only scored fifty nine. They're going to score
and they're gonna give up plenty of points. Dallas for
a long time last year and half of this year
was the same thing. Defense still questionable, but the scoring
has gone down. And I said the other day skin
then I watched the coaches interview, it was they head
coached a lot of players about forty five minutes worth.
But what I thought I saw the other day winds
up being true is that they're kind of in an
experimentation role or mode at this point in time where
the starting lineup every time I go through box scores
seems to change one player or another. Could be due
to injury, could be due to how he feels that day.
The lineup should be set, but they're not really sure
right now who their best starting five even is. So
for Dallas at this time of year, I'm not going
to say that they're tanking, because they're not. They're playing hard,
but they are experimenting with minutes, rotations, et cetera, et cetera.
Not really good when you're facing a team that absolutely
knows their rotations, absolutely knows what they're out there to do.
In Los Angeles and for Los Angeles tonight of victory here.
If in fact the Storm were to lose to Atlanta,
LA would move right into that eight spot and the playoffs.
We've talked an awful lot about jockeying four seeds in
the playoffs. Every day seems to bring games that where
playoff implications are involved. This would be one of them.
Los Angeles a little bit of rest here. They're the
better team, you know, they say the right things. Dallas
listening to the coach, Yes, we played good defense against Indiana,
they held the fever to eighty points, but he still
wants to see forty minutes of consistent defense and I'm
just not so sure that Dallas can play that type
of defense. So I would lean Los Angeles. The line
may have gotten away here at five and a half,
I don't know that they're five and a half better
than Dallas, to tell you the truth on the road
at this point in time. Not that it can't be done,
but I'm just not willing to lay it. And I
wasn't willing to play LA team total over ninety one
and a half, although I probably should be. It's not
something I'm totally adverse to. I could still get there.
Maybe that's the way I lean in the end is
LA team total, but I could eat just as easily
see myself playing Dallas team total over the way that
the Sparks give up points. I did it the other
night when I played the Liberty against the Sparks. Liberty
team total over games going to be played at fast pace,
There's there's options and there's ways to go. I just
haven't found the one I like the best yet.
Speaker 1: Well, I would ask you, as far as the team
total is concerned for the Sparks, are they going to
win the game, Because the only time they're staying under
is if they if they lose. And I mean it's
been ninety plus time and time again. These are two
of the worst defenses post All Star. But I don't
know something about this game. Like, here's how I feel
about it the Sparks, Like, as much as I love
the Sparks offense, you can't be laying with them because
they can't play defense. That's just how I feel. That's
my philosophy. If I can't trust you to get stops,
why would I want you to win by multiple possessions?
And the wings Like I think you have to pay
that premium for the Sparks because a Rique's out and
we joked a little bit before I started the show out.
I don't think that's a negative for Dallas. I think
Dallas is just fine. They're just won without her in
the last game. So it looks like Paige and as
I are both gonna play at home. Maybe a little
bit of confidence after that win, maybe they keep it
competitive in this game. I'm leaning a little bit more
towards Wings at the five and a half number. And
if I think the Wings are in this game, I
mean it's tough, you know, because you mentioned the Wings
haven't been scoring like they have been. But I mean
Sparks can give it up to anybody. Wings can give
it up to anybody. It's very hard to look any
other way than over in this game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the odds makers are kind of making you know,
they make me sick. I can think about things twice.
A ninety two to eighty seven finals score would be
a really high scoring game, but you're getting there by
the narrowest of margins, and ninety two to eighty seven
very possible with these two teams. So, like I say,
they're making me where Sparks totals used to be one
sixty six about two weeks ago. Now we're looking at
having to get to one eighty every time to get
there with them, And there's just some nights like against
Golden State where it didn't happen. Albeit Golden State in
Dallas aren't in the same defensive category, they're not in
the same style category, but you get my point. They're
just making it a little bit more difficult for me
to jump. As soon as I see the number.
Speaker 1: One more thing, I'll mention and you can tell me
if you agree. I mean, once Page and as I
are both actually rode In upgraded from probable to end.
The line is only going to go more towards the wings,
right you agree this this line is going to be
going down instead of up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, unquestionably if Pitt once Page is announced as in
that's the recognizable name to us as Ayah James certainly
is a big deal to the people who chase injuries.
I'm not so sure, but yeah, Page, definitely it would
move back down maybe the four, and Dallas does have
a chance to win the game. I mean the Sparks,
like you said, they'll give it up to anybody, and
they can be outscored. They're just they have the motivation
angle tonight's ski, which leads me to believe that they'll
win the game.
Speaker 1: Hmm, I'll just say, uh, I'll just leave it as
a lean for right now. You know, I have I
have my wallet open right now this show. I'm ready
to fire on some stuff, but I wait, I'll wait
on this one, all right. Valkyrie's and Chicago opened up
minus four for Golden State, now up to as high
as seven and a half, mostly sevens though on the road.
Total open one point fifty one, and we've seen it
continue to go down. I'm seeing even one forty seven
and a half popping up at a shot injury report
for Chicago. We know Inel Reese is out, Ariel Atkins
and Hayley van Litt look like they're both probable. No
money billings, no moriacy for Golden State. Man, you know,
I got screwed, like I said at a winning day,
that last day we were on, but I got screwed
on that best bet. Atkins, Rebecca Allen, and Bria Hartley
all got thrown out. And those are all the scores.
So one thing I'll say is Atkins and Rebecca Allen
should be fresh for this game and you know, ready
to put up some shots. They do have to play
at Golden State defense. And just like you mentioned, I
mean getting towards the end of the season here, you
got to pay that premium on the sparks total. Right now,
Golden State totals are starting to get low. How low
can you go? Type of deal. They're more than capable
of playing defense. I'm curious which direction you're going in
this one.
Speaker 2: You know, normally when we talk about games like this,
you would say do you trust the favorite to win
by seven and a half? And I would say, do
you trust the underdog to lose by eight? And maybe
I trust the underdog to lose by eight more than
I trust the favorite because Chicago, chic just doesn't come close,
right They just don't come close. The other night, the
ejections were there, like you say, a little bit of
a scuffle in the second quarter took the scores out.
They still lost by nine to Connecticut. It's just not
good for Chicago right now. I don't think Angel Rees
really wants to come back and play. You know, I
saw a quote from her the other day, reporter asked her,
because the coach keeps hinting that maybe she's on the
verge of coming back. And Angel Reeves's quote was in
due time. So in due time could be you know,
that could be twenty twenty six for all I know.
So we know they don't score without or we know
they can't defend anybody, so they are potentially in that
category of you know more. It's probably more favorable to
ask yourself the question, can Chicago lose by eight, lost
by nine, lost by twenty two, lost by twenty one,
lost by sixteen? Last time they lost by less than
this was seventy three sixty six against Golden State. As
a matter of fact, as I look right now, they
were at home, just as they are here. I don't
think the ramifications were as big for Golden State sixty
seven games ago as they are now. They've gotten themselves
into that seven spot, and I tell you, if they
keep picking up these wins, they're going to firmly plant
themselves in the playoff picture. They shot the ball really
well in the first quarter the other night, and we
talked often about they love to shoot threes. When they
make a decent percentage. They're very hard to beat and
this Chicago offense against a really good defense. I don't know,
should have got to the window real early because this
game was as low as four when it opened, and
I should have known Angel Rees wasn't gonna play. I mean,
I don't know why I hesitated to jump at four,
but now you're staring at seven and a half. Could
still be done, but you're getting the bad end of
the number here in this case. But Golden State has
been on a real string of good basketball lately, other
than the one game where Las Vegas lit them up
right in the revenge mode.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is probably the toughest game of the day.
I think, I just I think I have to pass
this one. I'm trying to g give you guys something here,
but I know Valkyrie's first half has been good, but
I just I don't feel great about anything here. So
we'll move it along, Rob, you know, we'll go to
let's see, we'll move it to Mystics and Fever. That
is six twenty nine, six point thirty opened up minus
eight and a half for Indiana hasn't removed total open
note one sixty one and a half. And I see it.
We'll call it one sixty two and a half as
a consensus. Number one Shop is holding the one sixty three,
though injury report for Washington there will be no Shakira Austin,
there will be no J. C. Sheldon. For Indiana, they
continue to play without Caitlyn Clark and just off the
back there for this one, Ravin, Shakira and J. C. Sheldon.
I mean that sounds like a whole lot less defense
to me, So it makes sense to me that the
total is moving up in this one. The problem for me,
Robo is the fever in this point guard situation. I
didn't like anything I saw about their you know, offense
against Dallas last game. Obviously, Sims in her first game
was just looking like she was trying to fill out
how things are going, or you know, trying to trying
to fit in and trying to, you know, figure it out.
In the second game, maybe she'll play better. But man,
I really want to bet this Mystics. I want to
bet Mystics over without those two defenders. It's just can
we trust Indiana offense? How do you feel about it?
Speaker 2: I trusted at Ski. It was the first bet I
made their team total in this game. When I bet
it let me just go back. I think it was
eighty two and a half. I think they needed to
get to eighty three to cover This game might have
been eighty three and a half, but regardless, I think
they'll find their way to eighty four. You asked the
question the other day. Are the Mystics tanking and they
keep holding Boston out? Dacy showed and they trade for
they don't player. They get whacked in their last game,
although let's to be fair to Washington, it's been two
really good second half comebacks the last two games. Dallas
had them by eleven at the half and Washington won
that game going away, and then Washington played a bad
first half their last game. I think it was against
Golden State. But to your point about minus the two defenders,
they give a baty eight to Golden State, and Golden
State shot threes like nobody was guarding them. So the
Britney Sykes trade leaves them void of offensive options, although
still they've scored points the last two games without her,
without Shakira, without J. C. Sheldon. I just think Indiana
at home, and I'll say one thing, the one thing
that put me over the top here was it doesn't
always happen, but I feel like we're going to see
a little bit here. Stephanie White, the head coach for Indiana,
went absolutely nuts after the last game, and she kind
of contradicted herself a little bit, but she's all over
the referees for the way they officiate Indiana, and one
part of her statement was, I think Aliah Boston is
the worst officiated player in the game. And then fifteen
seconds later, I think Kelsey Missile is the worst officiated
player in the game. So they're both, in her mind,
the worst officiated players in the game. A lot of
time times when you do that, you get some calls.
The next time around, they probably get a couple of
calls here at Boston. I'd say that Indiana frontline should
have their way against Washington without Shakira. I know that
the rookie forwards are good, but they're just not Let's
just say that Shakira Austin does a lot of the
bulk work in there, and I think Indiana's just too big,
too much size. I think they lead the league in
second chance points. I could see a lot of rebound
scores there. So I trusted one thing in this game.
It was the Indiana offense. That kind of answers the
question that you asked me to begin with. I think
they get over their team total and from there you
just have to decide what you think Washington's gonna do
against a you know, not so great Indiana defense.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And another thing, Indiana they've been playing some zone
or they've been playing a lot of zone lately. They'll
probably do it again. But Washington, we'll have some shooters
out there especially. I mean, no Shakira Austin. Now you're
going to start a DULC and she's willing to pop
the three. You know, Sonya and Citron can shoot. Shug
Is out there, she can. I mean, it's shooters out there.
So I do think the total is moving in the
right direction for this game. As far as the side
is concerned, I don't feel that strong. Yeah, I think
the total just rock with a total for this one.
Anything on the side or ready to move along.
Speaker 2: We just know that Indiana needs help. Right They're eighteen fifteen.
They're in that log jam for one of the final
playoff spots, so at home off the loss, you would
think they'd be motivated. Winning by eight and a half's
another story. But we'll see. I didn't bet it. I'm
just I'm in on their team total over all.
Speaker 1: Right, Rob going with the team total for the fever.
Let's keep it going here. We have two more games
left to talk about. Next up is six thirty one,
six thirty two Las Vegas Aces heading into Phoenix to
take on the Mercury. Opened up minus three and a half,
and it looks like four and a half is the
current number for the Mercury. Total open one sixty six
and a half, and I see it as high as
one sixty nine. Let's take a glance at the injury report.
I don't think there's too much going on here. Nobody
on the injury report for Phoenix and pretty much nobody
on the injury report for Aces. Shyanne Parker Tys hasn't
hasn't played yet, you know. So this is a chance
for the Mercury to bounce back after that. I feel
like that was a terrible, terrible loss to the Dream.
It's been a little bit since they played. I think
they've had four four days off, maybe five days off,
something like that, but it was bad. They didn't even
reach seventy points. And I just remember, like I don't know,
when I was looking at them play, I just felt
disgusted with what Phoenix was putting on the court. I
get it the dream of been playing good, but it's
a chance for them to bounce back from that. We
know they're still up there in the standings. They need
some wins just like everybody else. But they're facing the
Aces team who has won five in a row. Here, Rob,
you know, they're finally putting things together and stringing together
some wins. So you know, the first thing I'm gonna
ask is this is playing so good they won five
in a row, but they're here and they're the underdog.
Do you think the Mercury are favorites for a reason
in this one? Or are you more looking at the total,
you know, and agreeing with it moving up? I know
you're not betting this game under.
Speaker 2: You don't bet this one under, although I think the
first two that they played against one another state under
this number. The first one Asia Wilson did not play
was a seventy six to seventy game. It was Kalia
Copper's first game back from injury. That was back early
in the season. And then they played again and they
got to one sixty five eighty four eighty one, Las
Vegas win. Everybody healthy. I gotta tell you, I bet
this one. I bet it quickly, but I bet it
a lot on intuition, just a feel that I had
that Phoenix is going to come to play here. I
bet the Phoenix side. I go back, and I could
be absolutely wrong, and I may be nitpicking the Las
Vegas wind streak, but again you got the liberty on
back to backs. And one more time, Natasha Cloud who
wants to moan about having to play back to back,
I remember when she thought it was too quick to
come back from the All Star Game, and then it was, oh,
here we go, we have to play two within twenty
four hours. And she goes out and gets like six points.
But they had to play. They got to play New
York on back to backs. Okay, scheduling advantage Las Vegas.
They played Connecticut. Okay, Connecticut stinks game was at home,
only win by eight points. They'll give up eighty six.
Played Seattle one by four, but Seattle has also lost
six in a row, played in their worst basketball of
the season. Beat Golden State and then excuse me, yeah,
beat beat Golden State couple times in a row. The
first one was off of the massive fifty three point
lost to Minnesota, so they has some revenge. So for
those five games. I don't know, it could be just me,
but I kind of justify as well. You know, Las
Vegas had a built in advantage. I don't know that
they have a built in advantage here. Phoenix is still
in this playoff hunt and trying to hang on to
one of the top four seeds. And Phoenix has had,
as you mentioned, four or five days off, and I
just think that that does wonders for them. I think
that their frontline can hold up against Asia Wilson and
Las Vegas and probably be better. And you know, off
of Laska. Again, We've said it a few times now,
but this Jewel Lloyd coming off the bench deal has
provided benefits for Las Vegas. Is she going to continue
to shoot the way she shot the other night? I'm
not sure. We did see Becky Hammond make a change
in the starting lineup. I talked about why is Kirsten
Bell even in the starting lineup? She wasn't last game
they switched over to Dana Evans. I think Phoenix is
the better team still, Ski. I think Las Vegas is
way too dependent upon three players, and I think Phoenix
has a lot of rest and motivation here. So again,
there was a lot of intuition built up into this,
not a lot of statistical technical that type of stuff
in this analysis. But I do think Phoenix is the
right side here.
Speaker 1: It's tough to go against that. It's tough to go
against that. I just man Phoenix. Every time I met them,
they let me down.
Speaker 2: How about the Aces.
Speaker 1: It's the same thing, same thing, both of these teams.
So maybe this is when I need to sit on
the sideline, or maybe just look at the total. I mean,
this game is important for both teams. I'm trying to
look really quick. Most All Star we have ACE is
our tenth defensive rated team. Just like I thought I
was gonna say, can I trust the ACE of defense? No,
the answers always know. Mercury though number three defensive raated team.
It's been the offense that's been slacking for them. If
I'm liking the Mercury, I mean, I do trust it's
then't play. Defense has been the most consistent thing there.
Pace Wise, Mercury's been more up tempo. Their fourth aces
are ninth. It's a little bit it's a little bit tough.
I think this is when I just I don't see
any mediate advantage. Like a lot of times I look
at the board, especially with five games, and see things
jumping off the board to me, But today I don't know.
I'm trying to dodge those bombs together. It's just as important,
just as important. Yeah, all right, we have one more game,
one more game here, if you know, that's gonna be
six thirty three, six thirty four. Seattle and Atlanta opened
up minus one and a half for the Dream one
and a half or two depending where. Actually I see
some two and a half's out there, so it's all
over the place. We'll call to the consensus total open
one sixty one and a half, you know, seeing it
as low as one fifty nine and a half. As
far as injuries are concerned, nobody on their report for
Seattle Jordan, Canada. I believe they said she's going to
be out for like two weeks, so the Dream will
be without her once again. These teams did just play
on Wednesday, and like I said earlier, I was really
really I mean, we had a good cap together too
on the Dream Team total over, but I was really
proud of my cap on the Dream in general, and
it kind of helped with the team total because the
full game did not go over right. The full game,
I think got hooked or you lost by a point
and a half. But I'll just I'll read some of
these things again the Dream and this game is being played.
Actually I said it, it's in Atlanta, but I think
this is an overseas game. I'm not mistaken.
Speaker 2: It's in Vancouver, in Camp.
Speaker 1: Vancouver, so not a true home game for ourther team.
My first inclination when I hear stuff like that is
they would like to have, you know, everybody see points
be scored. But that's just how I think. What I'm
gonna say here is the Dream are now seven and
two this season without Jordan Canada. They've beaten this Storm
team twice without her this season, and post All Star,
I'm pretty sure this hasn't changed. Shadow is number one
in paint attempts and Atlanta is number one in paint
field goal percentage allowed, So they're good at defending the paint.
And that's all Seattle wants to do is go try
to you know, get inside and shoot libs. And this
is this is why I was part of my cap
because I literally wrote this in my in my in
my play, it says, why the Storm force too? Is
the Dream gonna be letting it fly from deep? And
that's all we saw. I mean, especially the corner three.
They allow the highest corner three percentage post all start
and the Dream, especially the end that third quarter, Uh,
just lighting it up. Ryan Howard, Ryan, Reggie Miller Howard.
Speaker 2: She scored nine points in like ten twenty seconds or something.
Speaker 1: I was loving it. I was, I was going crazy.
And Seattle they haven't been very good getting to the
free throw line. I think they're the second worst and
free throw attempts. That should improve with Britney Sykes, but uh,
you know it hasn't improved enough lately. In Atlanta they're
number one. I get into the line, so I see.
I mean, it was a lot of vantages for Atlanta.
What's gonna change here? Rovino in his second game within
one day. It's hard the Storm. They got two bigs
over there for the Dream. You can't just go in
there and pound in the paint or try to force
everything in the paint. And we know the Dream are
gonna splash from three unless they just have a terrible
shooting night. So to me sounds like over again or
dream again.
Speaker 2: Well, let's say this about the total and the reason
why I'm not on this game total wise, and if
I had to, maybe I would be on under is
the venue is just not common, very unfamiliar venue for
these teams. Nobody has shot at these rims. Who knows.
It is an arena where the background shouldn't be that
much of an effect. But still it's a new gym
or a new floor, new rims, new everything, So that
kind of scares me off of full game total. But
still you could go out there and score one hundred
and eighty. The second thing is Vancouver really does support
Seattle teams. But when I asked the question, I was
on a show previous to coming out with You today,
Ski where the host is from Vancouver, and I said,
you guys are probably gonna have a full arena tonight, right,
He said, no, it won't be a full arena Vancouver
doesn't They They follow the Seahawks rapidly, They follow the Mariners.
They follow the hockey team. I'll throw the I'll throw
the chat boom. They follow the cracking the hockey team
religiously but they don't necessarily get behind the storm. So
if you're in a an arena where it's maybe half packed,
maybe the walk up crowd will be decent. I'm not sure.
And we're just gonna match up personnel on both sides.
Why would you not play Atlanta? It's just no reason
not to play Atlanta. The only thing you could really
have for a reason, and it's half of a reason,
it's not really even a reason. Well, Seattle's lost six
in a row. They need it, well, they didn't. They
needed the other six too, and they couldn't get there.
And I saw on Twitter, and we'll mention our friend
and colleague U Kapper right in the Seattle area who said,
if they don't win this game tonight, This was at halftime.
I saw as his little comment on X which said,
if if Seattle doesn't win this game, coach Noel has
their coach Quinn has to go. And you know, when
you're in that, in that kind of stage, in that funk,
it's not easy to climb out of it, and it's
not easy to climb out of it against a good
team like this. Atlanta has faced adversity after adversity after
adversity and they've come through to the point where they're
the number two seed in the league right now, and
they know New York goes to Minnesota tomorrow. They win here,
they'll still be in the two spot even if New
York wins tomorrow. So I just I would look at
Atlanta in this game, Ski, I don't think that the
venue helps Seattle at all. I thought it might, but
when I asked the question, I found out it probably
doesn't bring a you know, vocal crowd to Seattle's defense
here to help out it all. Like you said before,
unless Atlanta has a miserable shooting night from distance, they
probably went. And we need to know. They brought Gritney
Grinder off the bench the other night. Brianna Jones has
been playing so well. She was the starting center the
other night. So when you have Grinder coming off the bench.
To your point about Biggs, Atlanta's got a lot of
size at the rims. So I would look that way
if I had to.
Speaker 1: All Right, we agree on this one. I think the
chat the chat just wants to bet for Quinn to
be fired tonight.
Speaker 2: Oh real quick, Ski. It forced me that win the
other day, just to add to it, made me go
and look at the dreams odds to win the title.
That found twelve to one with the dream And so
I had to take a little bit of that because
if any know, Minnesota and New York went healthy are
probably the two best teams on paper. But Atlanta doesn't
seem to back down from anything. And if there's one
of these teams, I know you got a little bit
of Phoenix earlier. They're kind of the same thing. I
wouldn't be surprised if Atlantham found their way into a
title match up here. The way they're playing right now,
they've got players.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like to learning a lot like the way
they play, so I'm not mad at that at all.
All Right, we know we made it to the end
of the show. That means it is best bed time.
Before we get to that, I'll just ask you if
there's anything you would like to promote, and if you
do have a best bet for the show, feel free
to share. If you do not, it's all good.
Speaker 2: Quick promotion. I will say that, you know, we do
a basketball show here, so I should obviously talk about basketball.
But football season does begin in earnest next week next Thursday,
we have college football So if any of you are
looking to get on board season packages in college football,
hop over the wageer Talk. You can see my underneath.
Last year. I had a tremendous final ten to eleven
weeks of the college football season. Did a lot of
work this offseason, so ready to roll here. Go over
to wager talk dot com. And also while you're there,
pick up your free seven day subscription to odds Logic. Again,
if you want to stay on top of injuries, want
to stay on top of weather. I want to stay
on top of the odds, the line movements. No better
place to do it than Odds Logic, and you can
get seven days for free. So go over to wager
talk dot com. Find both of those there. Best bet ski.
I'm going to go back to the middle game we
talked about. I just think Indiana is going to push
ninety points tonight. I think the total was. In fact,
it was eighty two and a half when I bet it.
Let me give an official number right now as we
talk Indiana's team total. Well, I seem to have a
delay here for whatever reason, but I do believe it
was eighty. Oh here we go. No, I was wrong
when I was talking about this. That number right now
is eighty five and a half, so you need to
get to eighty six. I bet it at eighty four
and a half. So that was my mistake when I
was quote in eighty two and a half earlier. I
feel like they pushed ninety here. So Indiana team total
up and over eighty five and a half for the
best bet.
Speaker 1: All right, good stuff from Vino there. I'll just a
quick reminder that they do. We do have seven day
all access for sixty nine dollars, so less than what
ten dollars per day you can get seven days all access.
And to what Robno said, I had a good college
football and NFL last year. I think twenty something units
for the season combined for both. So I am going
to have a play in that Week one. I'm guaranteed
going to have a play. I already know what it is.
I'm just waiting to put it up. But and that's
college football. I'm talking about best bet for the show.
I'm gonna stick to the same kind of thing we've
been doing here. You know, it's been working. So if
it ain't broke, don't fix it. If you're telling me
Indiana is going to score, I think Washington's going to two.
It is less defense on the court for them, but
you also had a little bit more shooting in spacing
and that's gonna help. Especially if the Fever think they're
gonna play zone in this game, they'll shoot them right
out of it. So one sixty two and a half
looks like the total for this one. That's what I
use as my best bet for the show. Veno Man,
this is killing me, Mark Man, I like, I like
rebiking today, but if I don't say it right, it's
Rebiken and Ribeckina one of the two. I think it's
rebiking that though. But she was serving so good yet
the last time I saw her, and I just thought
she was in a good rhythm. But I very rarely
will bet against Sabolenka, but I thought about it today.
I'll say that I just I don't go against Sabolenka. Ravino.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm so happy to see that because I'm not
an avid tennischoler, but my favorite women's tennis players simply
because of her meet around court is Elene in Rabakna,
and to see her winning today against you know, the
world's number one is good for me to see. I
just add you know she's had some difficulties. She's been
through like three coaches in the last couple of years,
I know, and some of her play has been unsteady.
But to see her back and performing like that against
world number one is pretty nice.
Speaker 1: Absolutely. Oh man, let me get back over there and
watch some of these tennis matches. All right, you know
it's been great break down these games with you this week.
We'll be back on Monday. I believe if they're no
there's no game on Monday. I don't think there's a game. Ah,
I'm not sure if there's a If there's a game
on Monday, we'll be here. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think it's the even number days they're they're kind
of like taking off here and the odd number of
days are having a lot of games. So I did
look ahead in the schedule. We might not have a
game on Monday.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think we do. So then I'll be Tuesday.
We'll be back here breaking these games down. We appreciate
everybody in the chat, everybody just trying to help each
other win. And yeah, I agree with this too, let's
get it. I think Coco will win. But it's a
healthy price you gotta pay. Shout out to everybody out
there on twitch, x, YouTube, shorts, kick, Apple, Spotify. We
appreciate you all. We'll talk to you guys next week.
Best of look on all your bets until then,
