Speaker 1: What's going on? Y'all? Welcome into another episode of Profit Picks.
If you are new, we do always start the show
by being transparent, and yesterday ended up not being a
good day for myself. It was a bad day owing
to the association. I had the Knicks and in college
I had Houston first half, so took a step backwards.
I think, where does that put us at? Now? I
think that puts us at four and three or something
like that. So I need to clean it up. Have
a little bit of a bounce back here today and
I feel like I might be a little better than
four and three before and three at the worst. But yeah, anyway,
I do want to stay before I start today's show.
I have had a lot going on this morning. I've
had a leak in my place, etc. A lot of
people come and trying to fix it, whatever, whatever, whatever,
So it's been a little bit of an off morning.
Gotten a chance to cap all the games as thorough
as I would like. So I thought about capping the
games on the show as we go, like we do sometimes,
and I thought about just you know, sharing the ones
that I think I do have strong opinions on already,
and I think the way I'm feeling right now, I'll
go with the ladder, but before I do, particularly at
the chat, what's up with Jeff zb Miami marking the building.
Appreciate you guys tapping in. So I will pick and choose.
Like I said, I'm just gonna share and not waste
anybody's time. Clippers and Pacers. This one opened up ten
and a half for the Clippers down to eight and
a half and total open two thirty three and a
half seeing it as high as two thirty nine. When
you look at the injury reporter, I don't see anybody
on there for the Clippers. For the Pacers, you have
Topping questionable and Nie Smith probable. Both of these teams
solid red situations. You know, first thing that comes to
my mind. First thing, you know, is the Pacers. They're
still not playing any defense, and we talked about them
being healthy and you know, with the with the availability,
you know, the starters, they should be able to score
it too. We're cashing over with them in the last game.
I think this is another over situation. We talk about
the Clippers one and two and playing faster when Garland's
out there on the court. I mean, we don't have
anybody on the injury report tonight, Right, we have GOI
available math in his back. I took over. I got
to thirty five and a half. I still think this
one reaches two forty, honestly, but this is one you
should have woke up and played. So, yeah, two thirty
five and a half in my pocket. I still think
it's gonna, you know, go over the current number as well.
Dropping Dimes likes the Pacers first half and full game.
I don't have a reason to talk you off. I
think that's a solid play. Mark Ling and towards the
over as well. Jeff likes this game over all. Right,
these will probably be quick hitters. Miami and Cleveland. We
just saw this game. Miami got the dub. They'll play
once again here. Cleveland will probably take this game, you know,
a little bit more serious from the jump, and I
would I would be looking towards the Cleveland side to
get a little bit of quick revenge. I also think
that I would prefer an over after the last game
fell short. So I'm not going to go too deep
into that game, but that's what I'm looking at. Their
couch says, huge car full of mid Yeah today, quick Hitters,
Hawks and Celtics. I did see, let me go here.
I did see guys got rolled out in this game.
So I'm just trying to get over here to the
injury report for this one. Yeah, Jalen Brown Vucevic out,
Caden is questionable, Landell is questionable for that Hawks side.
The Hawks have been playing good basketball, can't deny it.
But and have we played somebody like the Celtics first
game of a back to back for the Hawks as well.
Let me just double check here. They do play the
Kings tomorrow. Not that it's anything to look ahead to,
but yeah, coming off of that tough game versus the
Pistons and overtime, now coming to play the Celtics on
the road, the Celtics team who's playing their third straight
home game. Celtics just beat the Thunder. I mean, Celtics
are nothing for me in this one. I think that
even without Jaylen Brown, they should be able to win
this one by margin. Just my thoughts. Let's take a
look anybody else here? Mark got seven with Atlanta, all right,
keep going down the list, Bulls and Thunder. This when
I don't have a strong opinion and the spread is
so crazy, I think I'll just save everybody's time. Rockets
and Grizzlies. This is a very simple way to look
at it for me today. You have Rockets at thirteen
or thirteen and a half. Let's take a click the
injury report. It's gonna tell us all we need to
know for his game for the Grizzlies. Jerome is out.
That means I'm out. I'm not betting the Grizzlies when
he's not available. I mean the offense is just not
good enough. As bad or inconsistent as the Rockets have been.
I still just don't want to push the button now. Granted,
I don't want to live with the Rockets, you know,
but that's the reason I'm not on the Grizzlies. If
Jerome was in, I'll happily go push the button on
Grizzlies plus the points. That's how I feel about this one.
So I think we can keep it going on that note,
keep it going on that note. Everybody likes Tatum. In
the chat, Jaylen Brown wrote out, everybody's been and Tatum,
and I get it. I just don't like when the
most popular things, you know, that's just me. Pelicans Raptors
another one where don't have the strongest opinion. Didont say
Murray Trey Murphy both out? It says a back to
back for this Raptors team, right, I'm sorry for this
Pelicans team. It's the first game home after road trip
for this Raptors team. Also fourth game and six nights
for them. So let's see first came home after a
five game road trip, coming off of a blowout. Al
Pelicans have covered nine of their last eleven games. I
know that it's hard to not look towards the Pelicans.
I do think that Murphy is important. I think did
not say Murray is important. You know, they've both been
a big reason why the Repelicans have been covering those games.
Maybe this is a big number for a reason. I mean,
you're only missing quickly for this Raptors team coming off
of that beat down. Let's take a look at the
standings once again for this Raptors squad. Let's see Raptors
currently half a game in front of the you know,
in the from being in the play playing, they're in
that sixth spot. Philly is right behind them. I mean
they could be in the tenth spot, one and a
half game ahead the tenth spot. Half a game from
the fifth spot. I mean, each game is important, and
they're coming off of a blowout all versus the Pelicans
team on the back to back here. Yeah, this is
for that reason. I do only want to look towards Raptors.
I don't like the thought of them first game home
after a five game road trip. I don't like the
thought of that and how that could be a flat spot.
But is it a flat spot? The way the standings are,
are they really going to be flat tonight? I can't
see it. Yeah, Raptors, Raptors are nothing in this game.
Anybody on this game. Let's see Mark says Lee New
Orleans boarding for the Jankie injury report. Jamie says Brandon
Ingram gets right against them. He home too, Yeah, Ingram
Ingram versus one of his old teams. Yeah, I mean
Raptors do look pretty solid. I would consider that as
we go throughout the day. Maybe already a little late
because that one opened up minus seven and a half,
But I do think they're very capable of winning this
game by double digits. All right, next game, Jazz and Nuggets.
I don't have a whole lot of interest here. Let
me just glance at the injury for I mean, who's
even playing for the Jazz these days? Just yeah, I
don't really want to bet this game. This is one
where I can skip over or nothing, but not going
to be betting this game. Wizards and Warriors another huge
point spread. I mean, the Warriors, what are they doing
laying these numbers? Fourteen point spread for a team who,
let's pull up their their recent schedule. They haven't been
playing great. You all that haven't been playing good? Warriors
straight by the Nets, got by the Mavericks and ot
and a lot of losses before that. This Warriors team,
I mean, granted, this is another team that should need
some wins, but to win by fourteen you should be
playing well and they are not. The Wizards coming off
of a win granted against the Jazz, but the only
way I can bet this game is grabbing the points.
I mean, what are you doing laying two touchdowns with
the Warriors? Which just very simple to me. So for
that reason, I'll be looking towards the Warriors side. Mark
Mario likes the Wizards. I think I said the Warrior side.
I meant the Wizard side. Mario likes the Wizards. Mark
likes to over. Let's see if we can keep going
down this list here MAVs and Blazers. You know, my
first thought is, and I'll see if I'm right. My
first thought is, MAVs haven't been playing a whole lot
of defense. Really, let me just go to their games
because and I see the total skyrocketed from two thirty
five and a half all the way as high as
two forty and a half. The side didn't really move.
But let's just take a look here, Yeah, Mavericks, I mean, chat,
all of us could go out there and score on
these Mavericks the way this looked, this is looking seven
thirty eight, one thirty nine, twenty one thirty eight. I mean,
just ola defense, Like seriously, they're aren't even trying to
stop anybody. I don't think so. And when I look
at the injury report, Gafford out it's a protection there.
Robert Williams question, Well, I know this stuff clinging. I mean,
this could absolutely be another over game. Like these games
for the Mavericks are two fifty plus in the last
five forty I mean two forty plus in the last
what one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, seven games?
I see why this has been better up the way
it has until they show us that they're gonna change.
I mean, it's over nothing in this game, right, Guys
in the chat want to just specifically go Blazer's team total.
I get it. Like I said that that MAVs defense
has been horrific. They've been scoring too. Though MAVs have
been scoring one. They just don't care about getting stops,
so over for nothing in that game. Last game, Nets
and Lakers open up seventeen and a half for the
Lakers down to sixteen sixteen and a half. That's pretty dirty.
Opened up two eighteen and a half as high as
two twenty two and a half. Clowney probable, Porter and
Wolf are out, Luca Ruey are both questionable. Smart and
the Hero are out. Lakers minus sixteen and a half.
I mean, I know the Nets have been pretty bad,
you know, all season long, and they've been on the
road for quite a bit. What is this here? Oh,
not too long? Just a fourth row game played the
Warriors really tough after getting embarrassed blown out by like
forty points for prior game. Well, you get that same
effort here. I don't think you'll get that same effort
I don't, But for the Lakers still a team I
just don't trust defensively, And how can I lay this
many points if I can't trust you get stops? Also
for the Lakers, was his first game home after a
six game road trip, and you're playing the Nets. How
much do they care about it? And then you have
two days off after this game again they don't have
to travel. I mean, how much do they care about
this game? For real? I would? I would. I would
take the nets, nets plus the points only way that
I can get involved here, and that's the NBA car
So you know, an unusual show only took thirteen and
a half minutes. I told you why it's an unusual
show for me today. So you know, we'll get back
to the regular schedule programming next week. We'll even have
mister Robno back the day like today, it's a day
I really really needed Rahno too. Not that I don't
appreciate him every day, but I really really needed him today.
But we'll happen back next week and it'll be all good.
So before we get to best bets, let's do that
promo stuff like we usually do. That means you can
buy three days and get three free comes out to
six days for just sixty nine dollars. If you'd like
to be involved longer, you can do the all in
for the year. Ultimate All Access pass comes out to
under four dollars per day. You will also receive a
twenty five percent bonus coupine with this, and you can
use on anything else that you like if you want
to be involved with Robino and myself, We've had winning
day after winning day prior to yesterday, and it was
my fault, Vino, Yeah, it was my fault for yesterday.
So every other day since we've had this promo up,
we've been winning double the NBA Court Vision Get three
days of both Robbino and myself for fifty nine dollars.
All right, best bets. I'm gonna stick with what I
started off the show with, and that is the Clippers
and Pacers over now when you see me great this,
you'll see two thirty five and a half bet this yesterday,
you know. But the reason you know, I explained, the
Pacers aren't getting any stops. They're healthy and to have
the guys available, you know, the guys are available who
we can trust the score and for that Clippers team,
they want to play with pace with Garland. They're also healthy,
they got weapons, so I like that one. To reach
the two forties. The best number you can get right
now is a two thirty eight, so that's what I
will leave as the best bet for the show. It's
been been a long, long week. Here been a good
week though. Appreciate all you guys in the chat for
supporting the show, sharing insight, bringing the good vibes, all
that good stuff. Best of action to all you, best
of luck to all of you guys out there over
the weekend. We'll be back again on Monday and I
will catch you all then
