1 00:00:02,319 --> 00:00:04,879 Speaker 1: What's up, y'all? Welcome into another episode of Prophet Picks. 2 00:00:04,879 --> 00:00:07,519 If you are new, we do already start by being transparent. 3 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,919 Yesterday one plus one day equal to on the under. 4 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,640 But I added two other plays I like, and those 5 00:00:13,679 --> 00:00:16,320 didn't hit. So I can't get it right this past week. 6 00:00:16,679 --> 00:00:18,879 The days I put one play in and don't put 7 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,359 the others in. The others hit the one play doesn't. 8 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,920 Today I put the more plays in. The one play hits, 9 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,000 the others don't. We gotta get a little bit better, 10 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:30,519 you know how you doing? 11 00:00:32,039 --> 00:00:34,759 Speaker 2: I am doing okay, ski trying to battle a little 12 00:00:34,799 --> 00:00:36,960 bit of a cold here the last three days since 13 00:00:37,039 --> 00:00:41,840 I got back from California. But we're doing good. Yeah. 14 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:43,359 I gave a little back, yes see. You and I 15 00:00:43,439 --> 00:00:45,200 had a three and oh two days ago, and then 16 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,920 I give two of them back last night with the 17 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,719 Cleveland Cavaliers team total over one nineteen, they get to 18 00:00:52,719 --> 00:00:57,240 one eighteen. Classic left me at the altar there with 19 00:00:57,359 --> 00:01:01,640 that one, and then he had the Clippers. I can't 20 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,359 make heads or tails of this team. Thought i'd get 21 00:01:04,359 --> 00:01:09,239 a bounce back from them offensively last night. I did 22 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,519 not get it. We only got ninety nine points. Side 23 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,719 of the Clips saying an tone did their part, but 24 00:01:14,799 --> 00:01:17,879 that total fell short. And you know, I even got 25 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:22,799 the benefit last night of Wemby not playing, and I thought, 26 00:01:22,799 --> 00:01:25,680 man Clippers can really score now no Wemby in the middle. 27 00:01:25,719 --> 00:01:29,079 But Luke Cornett a little too tough for the Clippers 28 00:01:29,159 --> 00:01:31,439 right now. So we didn't get there. 29 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 1: All right, We'll get to today and these games stink. 30 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,480 I'm not gonna lie. It's not going to be a 31 00:01:38,519 --> 00:01:41,400 normal show. I'm not willing to talk about all. What 32 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,319 is it, six games, fifteen points. I don't want to 33 00:01:44,359 --> 00:01:48,760 talk about it. I'm not interested. I'm really not, honestly. 34 00:01:49,799 --> 00:01:53,920 So there's three games that do not have ridiculous point spreads, 35 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,439 and I'll mention those. Minnesota and Philadelphia is one of them. 36 00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:03,200 Open Philly minus two and it's US. It's up to 37 00:02:03,239 --> 00:02:06,640 four and a half or five, totaling up two twenty nine, 38 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,240 as high as two thirty five as well for Philly 39 00:02:09,319 --> 00:02:12,199 and be as probable. Broom is out and is questionable. 40 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:19,240 McDaniel's is out. Timberwolves on the back to back Sixers 41 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,520 first game home after a little bit of a road 42 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,759 trip only three games, and it is the first of 43 00:02:23,759 --> 00:02:26,719 a back to back for them. They played the Pistons tomorrow. 44 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,759 The Sixers have looked good lately. They haven't been playing 45 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,360 the best of competition, but they did beat the Hornets. 46 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,840 I mean, one could say the Hornets form is as 47 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,159 great as it has been lately. But yeah, a lot 48 00:02:40,199 --> 00:02:42,800 of these these wins they've been having reversed the bottom 49 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:47,319 tier teams. For the Timberwolves, they've been playing some competition 50 00:02:47,759 --> 00:02:51,639 at least. But the thing is, like the two games 51 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,919 recently versus the Pistons, they didn't win one of them 52 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,479 that got blown out beating the Mavericks, team beating the Rockets. 53 00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,039 Speaker 2: They did beat the Celtics. 54 00:02:59,319 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: I guess I have to say the timberwolvesn't play tougher competition. 55 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,000 If you look at the standings. With the Sixers lose 56 00:03:05,039 --> 00:03:07,159 this game, they're in the playing. I don't think the 57 00:03:07,159 --> 00:03:09,599 Timberwolves are in danger of falling into playing. So I 58 00:03:09,599 --> 00:03:14,000 can understand everybody from motivation point of view want in 59 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,000 the back to Sixers at home. I just I worry 60 00:03:18,319 --> 00:03:20,080 that the Timberwolves are a little bit better than some 61 00:03:20,159 --> 00:03:22,520 of the teams that the Sixers have been facing. So 62 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,680 what do you think here of you know, Sixers and Timberwolves. 63 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 2: I gotta read you this before I even start ski. 64 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:35,599 This columnist who writes about betting gives us this opening line. 65 00:03:35,639 --> 00:03:37,319 He should be on the show with us. Here's his 66 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:42,159 opening line. The Timberwolves continue to jerk people around last 67 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,759 night regarding Anthony Edwards, waiting until ninety minutes before tip 68 00:03:45,759 --> 00:03:49,120 off last right to declare him out. And it's what 69 00:03:49,199 --> 00:03:52,360 you're up against every single night in these games. Now 70 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,360 I see this total jump from two twenty nine all 71 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,240 the way to two thirty four and a half two 72 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,039 thirty five could be partially because of Embiid's presence. Embiid 73 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,879 didn't play the other night, but it makes me think 74 00:04:04,919 --> 00:04:09,400 that Aunt might go here. I've been trying to play 75 00:04:09,439 --> 00:04:13,039 these things the last seven to ten days according to 76 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,319 the standings and what's meaningful and what isn't. And I 77 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,240 think you laid it out the right way. It's very 78 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,800 meaningful to Philly. I mean, you don't want to fall 79 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,199 into the play and so motivationally, I would look their way. 80 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:31,480 I think when they're at full capacity they're pretty good team. 81 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,839 I mean, Paul George went nuts the other night in 82 00:04:34,879 --> 00:04:37,839 that game where they scored one hundred and fifty three points. 83 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,879 But I don't know if they're better than Western Conference teams. 84 00:04:42,879 --> 00:04:46,040 There's always that East versus West thing that creeps in here. 85 00:04:47,319 --> 00:04:49,360 I don't know that I'm willing to lay it with Philadelphia. 86 00:04:49,399 --> 00:04:52,079 I would love to get to the total if in 87 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,120 fact I knew Edwards was playing like I say. The 88 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,120 jump into total makes me believe that he will. I 89 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,680 think Minnesota last night, thank goodness you sent me that 90 00:05:02,759 --> 00:05:05,480 text to tone that game down against Detroit a little bit. 91 00:05:05,519 --> 00:05:08,319 They were going too too good for a while, then 92 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,360 we had to shut them down. I think they could 93 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,360 pick it back up against the Philly defense here. So 94 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,480 my initial lean ski is toward the over. I haven't 95 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,399 played it yet. I'd love to have Anthony Edwards in 96 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,160 to go ahead and get this thing up and over. 97 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,800 It's a back to back for Minnesota. Maybe the defense 98 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,920 after being pushed around by Detroit a little bit last night, 99 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,120 comes up, you know, a little lack of days ago. 100 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,360 We'll see how it goes during the day. But that's 101 00:05:33,399 --> 00:05:34,560 my lean toward the total. 102 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's hard for me to look at that one 103 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,920 or bet that one right now. The next one is 104 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,040 magic and maths and open up five and a half 105 00:05:44,079 --> 00:05:46,560 for the Magic looks like six and a half total, 106 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,319 up from two thirty five to thirty eight and a half. 107 00:05:49,959 --> 00:05:55,560 As far as injuries are concerned, you have Anthony Black 108 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,279 and Jonathan Isaac out for the Magic. Franz Wagner looks 109 00:05:58,319 --> 00:06:01,920 like he's back for Dallas. Bag of these doubtful Martins 110 00:06:01,959 --> 00:06:07,680 dubtau PJ Washington doubtful. I mean, maybe they just need France, like, 111 00:06:07,879 --> 00:06:10,000 because the Magic team has been so inconsistent. They've been 112 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,040 so bad since he's been out, it's been hard to 113 00:06:14,079 --> 00:06:16,920 back them in any situation. Now you have them still 114 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,399 fourth and sixth nights versus Mavericks team with two days off. Now, 115 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,759 the Mavericks, I mean they've been getting smoked. I mean 116 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,160 if they did beat the Blazers three games ago, but 117 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,279 outside of that, I mean, they haven't been able to 118 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,360 do much good. It's hard for me to trust them, 119 00:06:34,519 --> 00:06:37,759 even though they have the rest advantage I like, I mean, 120 00:06:38,319 --> 00:06:40,680 Orlando definitely has more to play for. I'll pull up 121 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,319 the standings one more time, just to ninth spot. Half 122 00:06:44,319 --> 00:06:48,279 a game behind the tenth half a game, I'm sorry, 123 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,079 half a game in front of the tenth half a 124 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,519 game behind the eighth in two games behind the seventh, 125 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,800 two games behind the sixth, they can still get out 126 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,000 of the playing It's still possible. I like to think that, 127 00:06:59,079 --> 00:07:02,079 you know, the half is enough to get there to 128 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:03,800 win his game by a little bit of a margin. 129 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:04,920 What do you think? You know? 130 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 2: I agree, And I'd also like to think that they 131 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,560 could get some stops. That's kind of my problem with 132 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,800 Orlando is is Franz going to make the difference defensively. 133 00:07:15,839 --> 00:07:18,439 I don't worry about Orlando scoring enough to cover six 134 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,560 and a half point number here. I worry about them 135 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:27,079 defensively being so hideous on that end for so long 136 00:07:27,199 --> 00:07:31,519 this year Dallas. If nothing else, they're losing games, but 137 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,879 they're capable of scoring. Two thirty eight and a half 138 00:07:34,959 --> 00:07:40,120 is the total here. But again, if Orlando is better defensively, 139 00:07:40,279 --> 00:07:42,639 this is Franz's second game back, so I'm going to 140 00:07:42,759 --> 00:07:45,839 anticipate he has a better showing or he's more accustomed 141 00:07:46,439 --> 00:07:48,920 to being in the lineup here tonight after getting one 142 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,040 under his belt. If they're better defensively, I don't think 143 00:07:52,079 --> 00:07:54,800 there's any question they should win this game by seven points. 144 00:07:54,879 --> 00:08:00,600 Considering the situation, considering their ability to score and the 145 00:08:00,639 --> 00:08:04,959 personal gap between them and Dallas. I just again, one 146 00:08:04,959 --> 00:08:07,519 more time, I do wonder about them defensively. So it's 147 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,199 kept me off both because I can argue I want 148 00:08:10,199 --> 00:08:13,160 to bit Orlando. If I talk myself out of Orlando, 149 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,319 I want to be the total over. And then I 150 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,480 talked myself out of the total over. So kind of 151 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:19,480 at a stand still. 152 00:08:19,279 --> 00:08:23,319 Speaker 1: Here, fair enough, we'll go to the last one we'll 153 00:08:23,319 --> 00:08:26,000 talk about. That's the Pelicans and the Kings, and not 154 00:08:26,079 --> 00:08:28,160 open four and a half for the Pails see five 155 00:08:28,199 --> 00:08:30,639 and a half or six depending where you're looking total 156 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,440 right around the opener. As far as the injuries, you 157 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,919 do have my COVID questionable, McGowan stoutful, Murray dubtful or 158 00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:44,159 Sacramento Monk questionable Murray and Westbrook out. This is a 159 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,039 Pelicans team playing on the back to back. They I mean, 160 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,000 they were winning that game yesterday and I don't know 161 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,679 what happened, ended up losing by twelve. For the Kings, 162 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,240 it is their first game home after a five game 163 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,919 road trip. They did win the last game on that 164 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,720 road trip, and they have the rest to vanish tonight. 165 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,519 You know, I like to think that the Pelicans are 166 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,120 favorite for a reason here. I'm scared to death to 167 00:09:08,159 --> 00:09:12,320 bet them early and the injury report come screw me later. 168 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:19,360 But I feel like I feel like the Kings would 169 00:09:19,399 --> 00:09:22,159 be satisfied after that win. And we all know the 170 00:09:22,159 --> 00:09:24,960 first game back home as a flash spot Repelicans, they 171 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:30,240 don't have anything to play for, but I still think 172 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,000 they're a better team. So I do the Pelicans. What's 173 00:09:34,039 --> 00:09:34,279 say you? 174 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 2: You know I like their offense in this one Ski 175 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,759 You know he made the point about Sacramento first, came 176 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,039 back off after the long road trip. Just not a 177 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,799 good defensive team. And when Trey Murphy's involved like he 178 00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:51,000 was last night, came back into the lineup, New Orleans 179 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,679 has a lot of ways to score, especially against a 180 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,720 defense like this. They're total this morning was one nineteen 181 00:09:56,759 --> 00:09:59,480 and a half. I think I like it at that 182 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,279 Spoted think they can get into the one twenties against Sacramento. 183 00:10:02,279 --> 00:10:05,679 The ro Offer game last night where second half, especially 184 00:10:05,759 --> 00:10:07,960 third quarter, kind of shut it down, but forty one 185 00:10:08,039 --> 00:10:11,240 second half points after a big first half, I don't 186 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,120 know that they'll have that kind of lull here in 187 00:10:13,159 --> 00:10:17,080 this game against this defense. So for me, I think 188 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,919 I would probably look toward New Orleans team total over 189 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,480 one nineteen and a half. I just don't know this Sacramento. 190 00:10:24,279 --> 00:10:26,720 You know again, first game back off a long road trip, 191 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,759 and the fact that they don't play a heck of 192 00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:32,200 a lot of defense, certainly not much to turn at 193 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,559 the rim. Zion should have a big game here. So 194 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,519 I like New Orleans and there are multiple ways to score. 195 00:10:39,799 --> 00:10:45,279 Speaker 1: That will wrap it up, you know, so shortest show, 196 00:10:45,399 --> 00:10:48,080 not a usual show, but I mean this slate is disgusting, 197 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,480 Like what are we doing with all these double digit spreads? 198 00:10:51,519 --> 00:10:54,320 Like someone's about that time too, you know, let's just 199 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,120 get to the playoffs. That's what it looks like with 200 00:10:56,159 --> 00:11:00,559 this late right, all right, let's get to this stuff. 201 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,320 We do have the same usual probos by three get 202 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,440 three days free cuts out to six days for just 203 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,440 sixty nine dollars. You'll get every play that you know. 204 00:11:08,919 --> 00:11:11,759 If you go rob or I release you'd like to 205 00:11:11,799 --> 00:11:14,840 be involved for a year, we get the ultimate all 206 00:11:14,879 --> 00:11:17,120 Access pass for under four dollars a day. If you 207 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,919 were to get Robbino for a year, you'll receive a 208 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,080 twenty five percent bonus chewpon that you can use on 209 00:11:21,159 --> 00:11:26,240 anything else. Myself included, and we do have NBA plus 210 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,159 the rest of the regular season, free comes out to 211 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:32,879 only less than two hundred dollars, and that is about 212 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:38,120 two and a half months of basketball. Will remind everybody, Vino. 213 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,840 I mean, I know he profited last year in playoffs. 214 00:11:40,919 --> 00:11:44,600 Veno is always good in playoffs. Myself, I've been good 215 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,200 to last three years. I know plus one forty five 216 00:11:47,279 --> 00:11:50,600 units in the playoffs. So this is the time. You know, 217 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,759 when everybody's gonna care when you know one plus one 218 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,639 finally equals too. So it's a good time to get involved. 219 00:11:57,639 --> 00:11:59,519 If you would like to, this is the best way 220 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,120 to do it. Vino, I know this letter is disgusting. 221 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:05,799 If you have a best bet, we'd love to hear it. 222 00:12:05,799 --> 00:12:08,000 If you don't, it's all good. If I missed anything 223 00:12:08,039 --> 00:12:10,159 that you would like to promo, feel free. 224 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 2: Promos are good. I'm just gonna go to one of 225 00:12:15,279 --> 00:12:18,039 the disgusting games that we didn't talk about, only because 226 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,919 I played this game over. The total Toronto Memphis number 227 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,759 here is two thirty three and a half. Toronto's defense 228 00:12:24,799 --> 00:12:27,679 has sprung a leak as of late, giving up points 229 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,039 all over the place. One nineteen plus and four of 230 00:12:30,039 --> 00:12:34,080 their last five. Memphis certainly still capable of scoring points 231 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:39,320 even without Ty Jerome in this lineup, and certainly Toronto 232 00:12:39,399 --> 00:12:42,200 has scored better lately, and it gets this Memphis defense, 233 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,480 which doesn't care. I thought the number was just a 234 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,559 little bit light, Ski, That's why I played it. So 235 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,200 I'm gonna leave you with that as the best bet. 236 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,080 Toronto Memphis over to thirty three and a half. 237 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 1: All right, good stuff for Vino. I will not leave 238 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:59,240 the best bet for today, but yeah, we'll get back 239 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,039 to it next week. Vino.
