Speaker 1: What's up? Everybody?
Speaker 2: Welcome into another episode of Profit Picks. If you are new,
we always start by being transparent, and yesterday it was
another good day for me. I went four and two.
My five percent was my five percent was the Cavaliers
minus two and a half. My four percent was the
first half under in the next game. Both of those
were winners. So I definitely had a good day yesterday.
You know, good to be back here with you. How
you doing here today?
Speaker 3: We're good ski. Yesterday was five and two. Overall, we
had another four and two College who day one to
oh in the pros had that the NBA game was
the Toronto Sacramento over I think we talked about it
on this show. May have even been the best bet
for the show. I'm not sure, but yeah, it came
through pretty easily. And the college just you know, sounds
repetitive every day, but it's been good for the better
part of seven weeks now, so we're happy with that.
We'll see what we can make today on this Thursday card.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot to like, a lots of like.
I have fired on eleven bets so far, I think
today and I'm already looking at making it one more,
one more. I'm already looking at and I'm pretty close
to putting the trigger. I honestly, I want to bet
it right now if the show wasn't about to start.
That's what's taking me so long, because I really wanted
to bet it. Whoop, getting some more, some more news.
You know that injury report goes crazy? All right, let's
get to it, Robie, No, see how we can make
some money today if I do stop the show. Just no,
I'm opening up my wallet and I'm making a bet.
I'll let you know what it is. But it's one
bet I am not missing out on if something happened.
First game up is Nuggets and Wizards. This one opened
up minus five and a half for the Nuggets. Still
five and a half total. Looks like two twenty nine, hasn't.
I mean it's two twenty eight and a half. Did
you report? And again, let me just refresh because we
see things are still happening right now. So for Denver,
no Jo Kic, Cam Johnson, ron Or Bates, Valance Tunis,
though for the first time in a while, was actually
questionable so he could potentially play Murray's probable partaway. Gordon
is probable the Wizards Marvin Bagley and Avery Johnson, and well,
you know what, but Loud has been rolled out. That's
good for my prop. I'm gonna just go right into
my prop there. I actually have two props in this game,
Robino fascet to you. I like Keithshawn George over nine
and a half rebounds and assists. I was nervous about
the stat of stuff Middleton. Middleton has been rolled in,
but without Blaw, I mean that's even better. I could
pull up his Uh. It just really it boils down
to all the games this year. You know, I've been
on him a lot, all the games.
Speaker 1: This year when there was no CJ, when it.
Speaker 2: Was no Middleton, when it was no Blaus, Like he
just has to do so much, and when it's one
person missing, like the defenses take away more of a
scoring and he has to do more to other things
like distribute and and he always rebounds. So the matchup
is good for him. And on the other side, yeah,
I could getting a lot of minutes. He's playing like
a Josh Hart roll all his games. You know, without
bron Cam and Yokich, we know he's going to get
the boost of minutes. So seven and a half rebounds
and assists. He's been clearing that line. I think in
the last four or five I like that one as well. Here, Rob,
you know anything for you on Nuggets and Wizards.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't play Skip, but I'll say this, I
was worried about Denver and how this rotation will work out.
It'll be interesting if Valentiunis does play, because it will help.
But their head coach, David Adaman talked about the minutes
that he's playing his players right now due to injury,
of course, but he basically was saying that they're winning
some games despite the fact that Jamal. I'm playing Jamal
a lot of minutes. I'm playing Tim Hardaway too many minutes.
I played Aaron Gordon over what we thought his restriction
should be, just to win a game. I'm worried about
doing that.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: If you're trying to win a game, you should probably
try to win the game. But he's worried he's playing
these guys too much. It would help if Valanciunis was back.
I don't know what these minutes are gonna look like
tonight for Denver. If the head coach is serious about
pulling back the reins on Murray for you know, three
four minutes, five minutes, keep him on the bench. If
he's the same with Hardaway, et cetera. It could it
could be a problematic with a team that doesn't play
a lot of good defense. To begin with number here
five and a half to twenty eight and a half.
I would like to play over here. Ski almost got
there with Lakers Denver over the other night, and I'm
glad I didn't because they only got the two twenty
two one fifteen seven Laker win. I feel like that
one o seven is just not something customary for Denver.
I feel like the offense bounces back a little bit
no matter how the minutes are dispersed, I may get
to twenty eight and a half a total play with
over bub Carrington subs in into the starting lineup here.
You know, it's kind of a volume guy. When he
makes him he's great. When he doesn't make shots, he's
not so great. But I still think this game has
a really good shot of getting over to twenty eight
and a half.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what you said about Murray's minutes maybe
getting cut down a little bit. That would be that
would actually be lovely for my prop. So I wouldn't
mind at all Roberto if he wants to get that
started tonight.
Speaker 3: Start a group chat with the Nuggets coach.
Speaker 2: All right, next one, we have Hornets and Magic opened
up six and a half for the Magic looks like
six or five and a half. I mean, this line
has been all over the place all day. Total come
down or I'm sorry, yeah, come down from two thirty
as well as two twenty three and a half as
far as the injury report, and here's what we gotta look.
So Suggs, Franz, Wagner, and Castleton all ruled out for
the Hornets, kJ Simpson, Plumb, Lee Man, Trey Man, They're
all rolled out. LaMelo is questionable, Brandon Miller is probable.
We did see the Hornets last night. They made a
pretty good effort to come back. You know, no thanks
to LaMelo shooting. I'll say that he was. He was
awful shooting the basketball. We'll see if he's out there tonight.
But regardless, the Hornets a lot of young guys. I
expect them to still have a lot of energy. On
his back to back and I didn't like him yesterday.
I bet against him because it was a big flashbat
for him that first game back home, you know, after
being out on the road and you know, for a while,
and they were very flat in the beginning of the game,
but they kind of caught on, you know, and started
to play better. And I think that they can roll
that into this game versus Magic team, who is coming
back from what Berlin, London, you know, and they have
had three days off. But you know, what do we
call it? I mean Russ rest Russ and also the
jet lag. We'll see how it fairs for the Magic.
But I like the Hornets tonight I took him plus
six and a half.
Speaker 1: Probably know what do you think? Magic and Hornets.
Speaker 3: It'll be interesting to see if LaMelo plays or not
here Ski. They brought him off the bench last night.
I think because they knew they had back to backs.
But it could be that the thumb is a problem.
Like you say, the shooting was horrendous. Oh for ten
from three I think one for fifteen overall, only scored
two points, So maybe it's just better not to have
him out there. We do know that they play with
more pace. Our friend, the kid from Duke conk Meto
said that it's a little different when LaMelo's coming off
the bench. It's a bit of an adjustment. We're trying
to manage his minutes and back to back, but we've
got to be sharper a couple of things here. Orlando
made note of wanting to start games faster, like they
feel like they don't start quick enough. And I looked
at the first quarter line earlier, Orlando was a one
and a half point favorite. I would like to go
there with Orlando, but Dan within the line thirty minutes
Franz got scratched. That means Tristan da Silva's in. I'm
not sure that I want their starting lineup now for
the first twelve minutes, so that kind of negates that play.
This is gonna end up being a no play for me,
just because you know, the one difference that Orlando has
that Memphis had is Orlando got the extra day of
rest coming back from Germany, where Memphis didn't have it.
Memphis still played good last night, though, when twenty eight,
when twenty six, I think not really interested anymore Ski
since Wagner got ruled out, So I'll just pass that.
Speaker 1: Game fair, very very fair.
Speaker 2: And on that note, you know we're going over to
the Rockets in seventy six ers. I don't have to
waste anybody's time. I haven't been on every other game,
do not. I haven't been on this game, Ravino. Is
there anything you want to mention in Rockets and Sixers?
Speaker 3: I wanted, honestly, I wanted to try and play the
Sixers here, but I don't know that two and a
half is enough. Embiid will play, Paul George probably will play.
That's probably why I went from three down to two
and a half. But a couple of things here where
Houston and got to keep an eye on these rotation
changes because I saw a quote from Kevin Durant who
said that read Shepherd and not that this is a
rotation change here. But Jabari Smith Junior have played a
lot more aggressive lately, and they're a different team when
those guys are playing. Read Shepherd for what it's worth,
has been playing good for a few games now, which
is helpful to their depth. Shngoon back. It's kind of
what scared me off because I thought in the beginning
I would like Philadelphia in this spot. No longer a
situation will play for me. Two twenty one does seem
a bit low for the total in this game. Now
that Houston's discovered some extra scoring, Smith down a pretty
good role after being terrible from January first to like
the thirteenth or fourteenth. Before the last two games, Jabari
Smith hadn't shot the ball well at all. So I'm
going to pass this one as well. I do think
Over might have a little bit of value to it.
Speaker 2: All right, here's where I want to talk about it.
And we opened up minus five. Here we're looking at
five and a half, open two thirty two, and we
are looking at two thirty.
Speaker 1: Four and a half.
Speaker 2: Injury report definitely have to look Gary Payton junior questionable,
Seth Curry out for the Mavericks, Gafford doubtful, day questionable,
Davis and Kyrie out.
Speaker 1: Savino.
Speaker 2: I want to ask you, I mean, my inclination is
the Warriors defense gets a lot worse. The Warriors played
a lot faster. Jimmy Butler's not on court, The Mavericks
don't have a whole lot of REMP protection. The Mavericks
have been playing faster lately. Hasn't been the Mavericks wanting
to play faster has been the team. The Jazz beating
them up. I mean, regardless, they're playing a team that
wants to play fast, and because beat them up tonight,
both teams have been playing up tempo, and I don't
really trust either defense. I'm thinking I agree with the
market pushing this one up, and I still think there's
some room to go to thirty four and a half.
Speaker 1: What do you think you're rob You.
Speaker 3: Know, well, we could watch the game together on this one, Ski,
because I already played it over two thirty four and
a half. Just a couple of things to reinforce what
you were saying, Jason Kidd, pace is setting the tone
for us, make or miss. We're playing fast. Christy came
out shot really well. He was good from beyond the yard.
But also I think the first group got us off
to a good start. Right that's the Knicks game he's
talking about there. What you take away from that quote
is that they want to play fast at this point time.
Golden State. I said, either yesterday the day before, whenever
they played, I made a lot of money on Golden
State overs, whether it be team total or full game over. Recently,
I didn't play the other night because I didn't know
what they were going to look like. Without Jimmy Butler,
but I think it was might have been saturated in
the chat, suggested a prop play on Kaminga and we
Kaminga had been buried on the bench nobody knew, but
he came off the bench and score twenty. I think
so now that he's back in the fold, Steve Kerr
admitted he's going to be back in the fold. I
didn't even realize Ski that Kaminga was not even practicing
with the team. Not only did he miss sixteen straight games,
but he wasn't even a practice for any of those.
I guess they didn't want to get him hurt because
they wanted to trade him. But now he's part of
this group that's going to play. That makes them faster,
for sure, that makes him higher scoring, for sure. I
put two and two together here. It wasn't that hard
to go to logic school on this one. In two
thirty four and a half. The one thing that's scared
me halfway but not enough to stop me from making
the bet, was that Dallas shot it so well against
the Knicks the other day, so well, you probably can't
shoot it that well again, but you probably don't have
to to get over two thirty four and a half
in this game, So for me, it was over. Cooper
Flag came back the other day, looked pretty good, he
had eighteen. We've talked enough, and you just mentioned it
again about the Dallas lack of rim protection. All those
guys gaffered for half a second they were saying maybe,
but now it looks like maybe not. He's back down
to doubtful. So for me, it's over two thirty four
and a half.
Speaker 2: Well, you know what, I make fun of you all
the time, Rob, you know, or you and you know
I make funny of all the time for being long winded.
But I appreciate it that time because it allowed me
to open up my wallet and go ahead.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you see how helpful Ski not only thorough but helpful.
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right.
Speaker 2: Get to the window on that over two thirty four
and a half and they're saturated in the chat right there.
Shout out Christian, She says, everyone prese hit the light
button and retweet the show. Thank you for that. Definitely
helps out the show. If you guys could do that
for us next game, Rob, you know, looks.
Speaker 1: Like this is.
Speaker 2: Bulls and Wolves almost messed it up. Bulls and Wolves
open up minus ten down to eight and a half.
Right now, total open two thirty six and a half,
and that's up. That's how it's two thirty nine and
a half.
Speaker 4: Let's look at the injuries. It's probably some injuries. Let
me just refresh here. Yes, as I refreshed, I saw
a name pop up. Julius Randall questionable, Terrence Shannon Junior out.
Giddy now upgrade, it's probable, William's questionable, Collins out.
Speaker 1: So I mean, I'm gonn pass this one of you first.
Speaker 2: Actually, this is the Wolves coming off of what three
losses I believe in row, and the Bulls coming off
two straight wins.
Speaker 1: How do you see this one shacking out?
Speaker 3: It's hard to think anything except over in this one's ski.
I really just don't trust Minnesota at all anymore, Thank you, saturated.
It's hard to trust Minnesota. Giddy coming back is probably
the reason why the total is pushed up, right, because
they see Giddy's in the game. Now. I think he
missed like eleven in a row or something like that.
But now with Randall out, maybe this comes back down
a little bit and we can get a better price,
just where Chicago's concerned at this point in time, and
Kobe White being back has been a huge help to
that offense. It could even be an instance where I
just try to isolate and play Chicago team total against
this Minnesota defense, which just isn't the same. We're seeing
some action on that game now, Ski as I talk here,
that's down to eight and a half, Minnesota total two
thirty nine and a half, down to two thirty eight
and a half. In some spots, I would probably look
Bulls team total over Minnesota is first back home off
of a road trip, as you mentioned, not really a
good scenario for teams. I could talk myself into it. Honestly,
the Bulls team total, the best you can find at
a spot that's readily available across the country, would be
one fourteen and a half. So and that's the number
I would be inclined to play that.
Speaker 2: Fuels defense has not been great, and they have been
one or they have been playing pretty up tempo. They
need a point guard, man, for real, I wish they
could get a point guard over there. But man, Youno,
I don't think the Wolves don't deserve to be laying like.
They haven't been good as a favorite all year. I
get it they could do what New York did, but
I don't trust them. They've been untrustworthy in this row
all year. They didn't have one of those good old
players meetings. I guess right, Rob, that's the secret.
Speaker 5: If you didn't say it, I was gonna that's the secret.
And this is heart came out and railed on that team,
and then uh and then it is the first game
back home from a road trip as well for them.
Speaker 2: So not the greatest of spots for the Wolves. I
think the Bulls are more the right side.
Speaker 1: And I did.
Speaker 2: Forget, so I will mention it here. I did forget
in the previous game. My bad, you guys. I did
take Buddy hillt over eight and a half points and
I took him inover for and a half rebounds.
Speaker 1: So take that for what it's work. There's two more
props in the previous.
Speaker 2: Game, Spurs and Jazz. This one opened up. I need
some wader. This one opened up. Minus thirteen still around there.
Total still around the same place. Deyonce George questionable, sense
of ball, questionable, arklest market and dying out. Cornett questionable,
Sohan questionable, vasel out for the Spurs team you know
I'm gonna go do you first on Spurs and Jazz.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't like the jazz here Ski even though
we talk. And they did it again the other night
they came back from fifty to twelve down against the
t Wolves. I think it was against the t Wolves
the other night one twenty seven two Utah wins. But
it's just too much missing now. I mean Brice sensible
last couple of weeks as he erupted for some big
scoring nights. We know George is providing them with, if
not the most offensive anybody, the second most offensive anybody.
And when Market has been out, he probably has been
the offensive player on the floor. So if you don't
have him, that's another problem for the offense here. Meanwhile,
for san Antonio, I think Luke Cornett is closer to
playing than not playing, which would help them here. I
don't think Utah can score enough to keep up with
san Antonio here. If they're interested in playing, they are
off a loss, or I think they will be interested.
I could also look in this game pretty seriously out
of san Antonio team total, because you taught it's just
a bad defense to begin with. Now you're missing some guys,
that number is one twenty five, kind of in a
range where I don't like to get involved asking for
one twenty six. But I can't see any other way
to play this game other than San Antonio. And I'll
backtrack for half a second and just say that because
you mentioned props, and we talked about Anthony Edwards the
other day and he's just been on a two game explosion.
Fifty five and thirty eight said the other day he
might be upset in the starting five for the All
Star Game. But certainly if you're looking at it prop
in that game Chicago, Minnesota, even coming home first time
off three road games, maybe ant is a way to go.
Speaker 2: So looking at at points prop, that's what you're saying there, right, Hm,
I do have a prop here.
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to pull it up. My bad, you
gosh so.
Speaker 2: Oh no, I just did this the other day and
I can't get it here today. Like we've got to
get some of those shiny shiny graphics on.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I need to see one.
Speaker 1: There we go, you can see this, Oh no, no, no,
I got to put it up. Put it up here.
Production crew, self, production crew.
Speaker 2: All right, you can see that, right, yep, So let
me get this. Uh, I'm sorry, let me get over here.
So pretty much Champagne, I'm looking at him over twelve
and a half points. He has hit it eight out
of twelve games. You can see right there without Devin Besel,
That's what I started with. And we can look at
I mean, you see the matchup here, defense verse, spot
up defense first above the break three, both worse and
second worst. You can look at the kind of points
he scores. Sixty six percent of his points are on
catch and shoot. They're the worst defending that. Where did
most of his points come from? Fifty one percent come
from the above the breakthree, they're the worst defending that.
So just a good matchup there. And if you look
at I mean, I could go further in depth, and
I mean, I guess I should. Let's go defense verse.
Let's look at the bottom half. Look at fourteen through thirty,
something like that, fourteen through thirty for all of these.
Speaker 1: Thirteen through thirty.
Speaker 2: And also defense verse position is bottom ten. Let's see
if we can knock that last one off. If you're
playing against the bottom ten or bottom half, yeah, bottom
half of the league defenses versus his position, he said
it every single time without Usel. One of them was
versus Jazz, and that was very recent when they just
played got just to thirteen, versus the Bucks, versus the Grizzlies,
versus the Knicks. So I'll go with him again tonight.
Usually I bet his rebounds tonight, I'll bet his points
over twelve and a half. That's champagne and that is
props madness. If you'd like to try it out, you
can use code SKI twenty five All caps SKI twenty five.
You'll get twenty five percent off your first month. You know,
any thoughts on that, anything else you want to add
on this game.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm I'm I'm all here. I'm here for all
of that SKI chart breakdown stuff SKI. That's the good stuff.
Really quick. Back to the Anthony Edwards thing with Julius
randall out. Now those points have to go somewhere. Don't
know exactly if that drives people to other player props,
but could just be a complete ant takeover tonight.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll tell you what I'm did.
Speaker 2: I did I mess up here, got messed up with
the banner or maybe I already just put the next
banner up.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, my bad. You guys, My tabs are
everything's messed up here we go. You know he didn't.
Speaker 2: Blazers opened up minus one and a half, and it
looks like it's flipped to Blazers minus one and a half.
It'll open two thirty nine. It looks like it's down
to two thirty seven and a half. That's interesting. Down
as low as two thirty six and a half. Actually,
injury report, we absolutely have to check that out. Color
where is questionable? Heroes out for the Blazers. Wesley Tyble,
Murray School are all out. Robert Williams, Strew Holliday, Jeremy Grant,
Cusco are all questionable. Man, it's interesting for this total
to be coming down. I'll just say that I disagree.
I absolutely disagree with the total coming down here. You
start off with what I keep saying about the heat,
like they're back to their beginning of the season identity
where they're playing extremely up tempo, they're sharing the basketball
really good. It's a recipe for putting up points. And
it's Blazers team is a team that wants to play
up tempo as well. So I just put those things
together and I get the two forty. Like in those
games where the heat we're playing to start the season,
two forty like should have been a baseline in all
of their games. That's where I feel like I'm at
right now for the heat and I'm just gonna put
up their last couple could out?
Speaker 1: Am I wrong? Nope? Two forty seven two.
Speaker 2: I think their games are back to you know, they
should be priced at two Ravino.
Speaker 1: What do you think?
Speaker 3: He had cast one of them the other night and
they made twenty one threes. To reinforce what you're saying,
really quick here, Bam out of bios said it. Bam.
After they made the twenty one threes, he said, being
able to do that gives us an additional element to
our play. We already played with pace, we crashed the paint.
That just adds another level of success for us. They
want to shoot threes, they want to go quick, they
want to get offensive boards, defensive boards, and get out
on the break. I'll say this about Portland Ski that
injury report could be just the shade cautious because Thiago Splitter,
the head coach for Portland. Here what I was reading
this one says that the time off because they've had
three straight days off Portland has the time off is
going to help the veterans Drew Holliday and Jeremy Grant
in this game. They've been dealing with injuries, so you
could see and Jeremy Grant. According to the head coach,
I'm somewhat reading between the lines there. He's not definitely
saying they're gonna play, but he's saying the three days
off really helped those two guys, so you may see them,
which would help. And last thing you talked about Miami
beginning of the season, they played Portland beginning of the
season early November. He got two sixty seven one six one.
I don't know exactly what changes here, should be another.
Speaker 1: Over all, right, we're in agreement on this game. I'm
glad to hear that.
Speaker 2: And I'm sitting here thinking, you know, damn, did I
miss some more props. I know I had a lot
of props a lot of games today. But now we've
still got another game left here, Lakers and Clippers. And
did open up minus two for the Clippers is down
to minus one, so it open two twenty three and
a half. It looks like two twenty two and a
half two twenty three depending where you shot for the Lakers.
Reeves and the arrow are out for the Clippers. Kawhi
is questionable. Bogdanovich Derrick Jones Junior are.
Speaker 1: Both out.
Speaker 2: One. I know Luca does hate the Clippers. He usually
does light him up at least to start the games
in the first quarter, will have like fifteen to twenty.
But what I took in this game, I mean, I
don't know. If I talk to you about it, Robn,
I think I'm not sure, but I figure Lebron out.
Speaker 3: Did we talk about that, No, you mentioned it yesterday,
but that must have been with the other show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Lebron, this is how he continues to get
his numbers, rob because we watched the games and we
see him, you know, loafing around, not really caring. Yeah,
we see the games that are like that. So what
he does is the games that are a good matchup
for him to fill up the stat sheet the top
you know, half of the league. And you know when
he sees those good matchups, he goes all out. He
takes advantage of it, like the scoreboard up the stat sheet.
When it's a tougher matchup, I don't really care so much.
He's not doing so much that's exactly how he's playing
these games raw.
Speaker 1: So tonight.
Speaker 2: I'm going to Lebron under twelve and I bet over
last game twelve and a half. I'm going under twelve
and a half this game rebounds and assists and.
Speaker 1: More than that.
Speaker 2: I mean, I did also bet last game. I bet
really over seven and a half points. They raised that
from the previous game of six and a half. Now
they've raised it again to eight and a half minus
two one twenty two. But I just went ahead and
did the pra. He was kind of doing a little
bit of everything anyway in his last game, and he's
getting back to like I'm expecting him to start for
the first time this game since being back, like they're
wrapping up his minutes he had was that he had
seventeen minutes, did he had eighteen minutes, then he had
you know, et cetera, et cetera, nineteen twenty one, and
then last game he had twenty eight I believe, and
he was in the closing lineup. So it seems to
me like, you know, he's getting back to where he
should be his normal role on his team. So I
like him over his twelve and a half p ra
at uh. It was my like minus one twelve last
but not least. I like La Ravia.
Speaker 1: I go with La Ravia.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure what these numbers are. They might be gone,
but I'm just trying to help you guys.
Speaker 1: I sent these.
Speaker 2: Plays out a lot earlier, La Ravia under eight and
a half points for the same reason I'm taking Rui Ruis.
Speaker 1: I'm expecting them to be back starting.
Speaker 2: I'm expecting the Rabio go sit his ass on the
bench rve, you know, and he's not gonna be doing
a whole lot of nothing under eight and a half
for him, So kind of correlation to how I'm my
game flow things. Put it in your same game parlay,
see if we can, you know, get your good payout
for the people who do that.
Speaker 1: You know, Lakers and Clippers. What do you think?
Speaker 3: First thing? I want to do ski and you know
me pretty well at this point doing shows together. I
do not pat myself on the back, but sometimes you
get it right, you go on the show, you say something,
it turns out to be right. How about this from
Trond Luke after they lost the other day, the game
in which I said, I think they're going to go
back to walkers with tennis balls, he says that back
to back get really caught up with us. We were tired,
we were slow. We're already slow, but we were even slower,
and sure enough, they got whacked. It almost seems like
he chucked in the towel on that road trip. They
knew they were going to come home with a winning record.
This one, we're not doing so well.
Speaker 1: We're tired.
Speaker 3: Let's go ahead and let Chicago beat our brains in,
and they did. To your point about Luca hating the Clippers,
which goes way back, right, it goes back maybe to
co the COVID playoffs. It was around then, but anyway,
it's interesting that his head coach JJ Reddick had this
to say about Luca. He said, he's got an engine
that can't be turned down halfway. Once his engine out
is on, it's like he's in kill mode. And he'll
probably be in kill mode against the Clippers tonight. I'm sure.
But I think the Clippers kind of look ahead to
this game. Again, it's coming home cross country off of
a road trip, not necessarily the best setting. My idea
here is that they probably get some points in this game.
I think Luca goes off. You might see Kawhi back
tonight as well. From what I read, it seemed like
they purposely rested him on the road trip. He's still
listed as questionable tonight, but I think he's gonna go.
Gonna wait until we get the full injury report here,
but if I see Kawhi, it could be a lean
towards the Clippers. It could also be a lean towards
a little bit of over but I think Clippers, more
than anything is where I would head with this one.
I think they threw in the towel to get to
this game, and real quick. While I'm on throwing in
the towele, Steve Kerr admitted the last game they played
heat through within the towel. Basically said I wasn't going
to chase with my starters, let the backups go. So
maybe Golden State's prime for a good one tonight as well.
Speaker 2: All right, that is a that's the NBA car for today,
mister Veno, So we will toss this good, good.
Speaker 1: One up there like we usually do.
Speaker 2: Seven day all access for sixty nine bucks comes out
to under ten dollars per day, and you're pretty much
getting a seven day all access pass, I mean a
three day I'm sorry, seven day all access pass for
the price up three. That's what I'm to stay there
and robo messing that up there today. But I'll ask
you if there's anything else you would like to promote,
and if you have a best bet for the show,
we'd love to hear.
Speaker 3: It real quick on promotions, get spend a couple of days.
As I said this, so I will tell the chat
if in fact, you do back college basketball Monday through Friday,
Wageer Talk TV, Full Court Press, College Basketball Show, My
Off and Adam Trigger. We go through sixty minutes of
basically you know, we do one game as a feature game,
and then the chat dictates the rest of the way.
We just do what you guys want to hear. So
once again Monday through for extra Monday through Saturday now
ten to eleven, Monday through Friday eleven till noon with
Kelly Stewart on Saturday mornings right before opening tip off.
I've got a couple to choose from here, ski, but
I'll go ahead and just give the one that I
bet first, which was Golden State Dallas over the total
to thirty four and a half. I think we line
up in that game, you had the same thoughts I did, basically,
So give me that is the best bet for today.
Golden State Dallas up and over to thirty four and
a half.
Speaker 2: All right, good stuff for mister Rabino. For myself, you know,
we did nice with that five percent, uh five percent
yesterday on the Caves minus two and a half got
there at one by seven, and I do have another
five percent tonight. So if you enjoyed that one, if
you're going to be involved again, or if you didn't
get involved last time you missed out, maybe you want
to check it out tonight. Now it's a good time
to get involved. And I would say just take advantage
of the probom we put up or you know, that's
the best way to do it. And if you're a
volume player, it's a good day to get involved with
me because I have double digit bets. If you like
just the strongest bet, it's a good day because I
have my strongest bet.
Speaker 1: And if you like.
Speaker 2: Player props, I have plenty of those for you two today,
So today's a really good day. Best bet for the show.
I always like to give something that is the same
number you guys can get. Let me just glance the
board because a lot of things have moved. A lot
of things, I've definitely moved. Well, how about one thing,
you know, I'll say it like this didn't we I'm
pretty sure it was this show. If it wasn't this show,
then hey, we'll talk about it this time. Buddy Hill,
wasn't that the best bet on this show? Over eight
and a half points?
Speaker 3: Ye, this show.
Speaker 1: We'll go right back to that. It was juice.
Speaker 2: It was juice towards the under earlier and it started
to move a little bit more towards even I don't
know why it was even starting like that, but like
we mentioned, he's gone over every single game without Jimmy Butler.
It's not the greatest of matchups as far as you know.
Dallas is listed as one of those teams that defends.
Speaker 1: The perimeter really good. But Buddy is more than just
a shooter.
Speaker 2: He'll score in transition, he'll get to the basket, and
he's gonna have plenty of opportunity here. Eight and a
half is not a tough ask, even with good defense.
He's a sniper. He need a couple of those threes
off first of them. So we'll go Buddy Hill once
again to cash the best bet for us on the show.
You know, appreciate you taking the time to catch these
games with me. Always want to let you know how
much that helps my process.
Speaker 1: People in the chat, we.
Speaker 2: Appreciate you as well, a lot of great cappers and
great people and we're always trying to help you other win,
so you guys help make the show what it is.
Always want to let you know you're appreciated too. One
more day, you know, tomorrow, possibly we'll talk a little
bit of football. We only have two more games or
i'm sorry, two games this weekend, but we can talk
about them as well as some NBA. So best of
luck to everybody out there in the chat. We'll catch
you all tomorrow.
