1
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 1: What's up? Everybody? Welcome into another episode of Profit Picks.

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:07,879
If you are new, we do always start this show

3
00:00:07,919 --> 00:00:11,279
by being transparent, and yesterday I went one and one.

4
00:00:11,839 --> 00:00:14,720
My top play was the Grizzlies plus six plus seven

5
00:00:14,759 --> 00:00:16,440
and a half. They end up winning the game all right,

6
00:00:17,039 --> 00:00:20,120
so slightly profitable. I did lose on Tari Easton over

7
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,079
one and a half threes, didn't even get in a

8
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:27,239
tent after the first quarter, so slightly profitable day. Good

9
00:00:27,239 --> 00:00:29,320
to be back here with you, Rob Youno. How's everything

10
00:00:29,359 --> 00:00:29,839
on your end?

11
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 2: Things are good? Ski? We had a three and one

12
00:00:33,039 --> 00:00:35,359
yesterday one and oh from the NBA. The play that

13
00:00:35,399 --> 00:00:37,840
we left here the Sixers team total over I think

14
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,560
they were into the seventies at halftime against the Clippers,

15
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,359
who it's a couple of times in a row now

16
00:00:44,679 --> 00:00:46,799
their last two back to backs, the second end of

17
00:00:46,799 --> 00:00:50,880
the back to back, they have not come up roses defensively,

18
00:00:51,039 --> 00:00:53,719
so I'll keep my eye on that. We see now

19
00:00:53,759 --> 00:00:56,640
that you know, maybe James Harden is going to be

20
00:00:56,719 --> 00:00:58,439
shipped out of there, so maybe that had something to

21
00:00:58,439 --> 00:00:59,960
do with it. But we'll take that win. In any

22
00:01:00,119 --> 00:01:03,520
college we had at two and one, and I thought

23
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,159
I was on my way to three and oh with

24
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,079
Texas Tech up fifty nine to fifty with about three

25
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,560
minutes left, and then Ku came off the top rope

26
00:01:11,599 --> 00:01:13,640
and made sure I didn't sweep the college board. So

27
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:14,640
we'll take three in one though.

28
00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 1: Was a good day, absolutely. We just got a trade

29
00:01:19,359 --> 00:01:23,760
elenns knowing the chat, Jared Jackson Junior to the Jazz

30
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,280
for three first round picks to the Jazz. The Jazz

31
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:33,560
are they're trying to I mean, that's that's crazy to me.

32
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,120
Three first round picks from the Jazz for Jaron Jackson Jr.

33
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,959
I mean, I guess he's a nice he's nice. Next

34
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,239
thing up marketing, I don't know, we know what you

35
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:45,879
think about that?

36
00:01:47,879 --> 00:01:50,519
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I thought the same thing that was with marketing.

37
00:01:50,599 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: And I forget about Kesler too.

38
00:01:52,319 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 2: Actually yeah, and Walker Kesler coming to that front line

39
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,920
could be really good. Rebounding Jackson and rim protection Jackson,

40
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:05,200
Kessler marketing to stretch defenses. George coming on the way

41
00:02:05,239 --> 00:02:07,680
he is in the back. But I guess Utah is

42
00:02:08,439 --> 00:02:11,039
trying to get there sooner rather than later. Right if

43
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,360
you're giving up three draft choices for I don't know

44
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,240
the age on Jaron Jackson junior twenty nine. Maybe he

45
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:22,159
not that old. So it's good for Memphis. I'll say

46
00:02:22,199 --> 00:02:26,199
that because Memphis isn't just a complete rebuild type thing.

47
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,319
So yeah, three first for Memphis. I don't know when

48
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,560
they if they're this year or years after. But it's funny, Ski,

49
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,400
you and I were just talking about this off air,

50
00:02:35,439 --> 00:02:36,840
and it's kind of the reason why we're only going

51
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,319
to go through a select few games today.

52
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, trade deadline. You know, you never know what you're

53
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,000
going to get throughout the day. You gotta be you know,

54
00:02:45,199 --> 00:02:46,919
don't be surprised if you get some more of these

55
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,520
trades and things start to change throughout the day. So

56
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,240
maybe not not a day to load the clip. But

57
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,919
you know, saying that I do, I'll play some player props.

58
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,439
I'm not scared of those. So many guys don't play. Hey,

59
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:05,000
I'll be all right. But yeah, Utah, looking like they're

60
00:03:05,439 --> 00:03:09,319
going in the right direction. All right, today's show will

61
00:03:09,319 --> 00:03:11,000
be a little bit different. We won't go through every

62
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,800
game like we mentioned, we'll do a little bit of

63
00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:16,759
the old school NBA style. If you guys can't remember

64
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,120
if you were around a few years ago. So first

65
00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:24,840
game we will talk about here today Nuggets and Pistons.

66
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,000
This one opened up minus six, looks like five now

67
00:03:28,159 --> 00:03:30,919
total open two twenty four looks like two twenty nine.

68
00:03:31,879 --> 00:03:36,000
As far as injuries are concerned here, yeah, Bron questionable,

69
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:42,960
Bates Gordon, and Kem Johnson out for the Pistons. I

70
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,080
don't see anybody on the injury report that got a

71
00:03:45,159 --> 00:03:54,080
full we'll go for tonight. You know this, this Pistons team,

72
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,759
I want to say they weren't playing the best of basketball,

73
00:03:57,199 --> 00:04:00,000
but they have started to. Maybe it's that they're playing

74
00:04:00,039 --> 00:04:02,240
ain't close games. Let me actually just pull this up

75
00:04:02,919 --> 00:04:05,400
because I know they've they've won some of these games.

76
00:04:06,319 --> 00:04:08,439
It's the first of a back to back for the Nuggets.

77
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:15,520
Says here they will play the next tomorrow in Madison

78
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,560
Square Garden. So I'll ask you, you know, I'll start

79
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,519
with that. Do you think the Nuggets maybe look ahead

80
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,759
here to play in Madison Square Garden or do you

81
00:04:22,759 --> 00:04:25,240
think the Pistons of their attention here tonight.

82
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,319
Speaker 2: I think the Pistons have their attention for sure. I

83
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:35,959
don't think that Jo Kichever overlooks a game. We'll see

84
00:04:36,439 --> 00:04:39,079
if they choose to load manage tomorrow but it doesn't

85
00:04:39,079 --> 00:04:42,240
look like they're gonna do so today. I know Christian

86
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:46,600
Brown is expected back sometime soon, probably not tonight, but

87
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,240
they're they're as healthy as they've been in quite a while.

88
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,759
I mean, still missing Aaron Gordon, but talked about Peyton

89
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,839
Watson a lot on the show and how he's filled

90
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,480
some shoes here really really well. I think Denver, you know,

91
00:04:59,519 --> 00:05:02,519
plus the points is the way I'm looking here. Ski

92
00:05:02,639 --> 00:05:07,720
against Detroit the Pistons, you know, they got that what

93
00:05:07,879 --> 00:05:10,279
was it, sixty point win or something over Brooklyn the

94
00:05:10,319 --> 00:05:13,959
other night. Brooklyn's lineup was just a disaster and the

95
00:05:13,959 --> 00:05:18,279
Pistons took full advantage. But it's not going to be

96
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,680
that easy against Denver. Now. Denver's off of the loss

97
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,879
to OKC, so I think there's a little bit of

98
00:05:23,879 --> 00:05:27,399
that on their mind. I think situationally, it sets up

99
00:05:27,439 --> 00:05:31,360
a little bit for Denver here. They've got some revenge

100
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,399
because Detroit went to Denver when Jokic was out and

101
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,879
beat them. So now Denver could come back with Yo

102
00:05:37,959 --> 00:05:42,000
Kitchen maybe return the favor. Whether they win outright or not,

103
00:05:42,519 --> 00:05:44,480
I just feel like five and a half six is

104
00:05:44,519 --> 00:05:48,600
a lot to give Denver in any circumstance, so for me,

105
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,680
and this was a tough one with total too for

106
00:05:51,759 --> 00:05:55,439
me Ski because Detroit's you know, they're a solid defensive team,

107
00:05:56,199 --> 00:05:58,839
and I just feel like when Denver is asked to

108
00:05:58,959 --> 00:06:02,319
step up, they can step up a little bit defensively.

109
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,519
That being said, money has all come in on over

110
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,040
to twenty four up to two twenty nine, but the

111
00:06:08,079 --> 00:06:10,199
points sprit has come down now from six. I'm seeing

112
00:06:10,199 --> 00:06:13,279
some five start. The flash here in front of me

113
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,959
looks like a universal five. Maybe there's a couple of

114
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,839
straight five and a halfs if you shop it close,

115
00:06:18,879 --> 00:06:22,120
some spots that are readily available to folks across the

116
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,000
US and then around the world. So I'm gonna side

117
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,720
with Denver here. Not a play that I made yet,

118
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,040
but I think it's one that I'm going to end

119
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:31,399
up getting to the Nuggets.

120
00:06:31,399 --> 00:06:34,759
Speaker 1: Plus the points, I would agree with you. I also

121
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,720
would look towards during under his rebound prop to nine

122
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,000
ten and a half. You know, I don't think it's

123
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,839
the greatest of matchups for a few different reasons. One,

124
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,639
he hasn't hit this prop the last four meetings versus Nuggets,

125
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,759
and that goes back this season. In the past two seasons,

126
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,439
and I think that's because one Yolkics will take him

127
00:06:56,439 --> 00:06:58,680
away from the rim. I you'll have to guard Yokich

128
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:03,319
out on the perimeter because shoot and two is a

129
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,040
tough matchup. We know Duran foils a lot, Durren could

130
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,800
be in foul trouble majority of this game. So for

131
00:07:09,839 --> 00:07:13,720
those reasons and some others, you know, as far as

132
00:07:13,759 --> 00:07:16,800
matchup wise, numbers wise, it does say Denver does not

133
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,120
Denver is not allowing the most rebounds to the center

134
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,879
position like Duran under ten and a half rebounds in

135
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,680
this game. All right, you know we'll move it over

136
00:07:25,759 --> 00:07:30,959
to another one and that will be And also my bad.

137
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,040
I did want to mention that I would agree with

138
00:07:33,079 --> 00:07:35,839
you because you know, you got one team who kind

139
00:07:35,839 --> 00:07:39,399
of just got embarrassed losing my double digits versus another

140
00:07:39,439 --> 00:07:42,480
team who is you know, they flowing into this matchup

141
00:07:42,519 --> 00:07:46,160
after just blowing him off the earth. So that's why

142
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:49,040
I would agree Lakers, than that opened up minus eight

143
00:07:49,079 --> 00:07:50,959
and a half looks like eight and a half or

144
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,199
nine depending where you shot. Total open two twenty two

145
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,040
and a half. And we won't have a whole lot

146
00:07:55,079 --> 00:07:59,199
of movement on that injury report Ronnie James is questionable,

147
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,519
so it was Allton Reeves, the Ero remains out for

148
00:08:02,639 --> 00:08:05,480
the Nets, high Smith is out. Everybody else looks like

149
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,920
they're going to be a go here. And it's the

150
00:08:08,959 --> 00:08:11,319
other side of that, right, you know, with the Nets,

151
00:08:11,519 --> 00:08:14,120
the team that got blown off the earth, we've seen

152
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,519
them once before. They did show up in the following game.

153
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,720
Can they show up here versus Lakers squad? What do

154
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:21,120
you think?

155
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny that that is like the main thought

156
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,120
process in my handicap here Ski. It's not something that

157
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:34,600
you would generally like to pin your entire bet on,

158
00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:38,320
but with the Nets, it's becoming commonplace. They lose one

159
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,480
twenty to sixty six to the Knicks, they come back

160
00:08:40,519 --> 00:08:45,279
and push Boston to overtime a couple of days later,

161
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,039
So that was one blowout. Now they get blown out

162
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,480
of one thirty to seventy seven. Lakers don't play a

163
00:08:51,519 --> 00:08:55,080
ton of defense, so you can get some points here

164
00:08:55,120 --> 00:09:01,480
against them. Problem for Nets again, I don't know. With

165
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,440
this trade deadline, I see mpj's name all over the

166
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:09,360
place in trade talks. It's possible between today or tomorrow.

167
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,679
It's hard to guess, you know what. I mean, if

168
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,200
he's in there and he plays with the LA defense,

169
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,240
I would think that Brooklyn can score their share and

170
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,159
probably stay under the number because they do have a

171
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,200
little bit of bounce back resiliency in them. And I'll

172
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,919
say this because the nets, I think I've read this morning.

173
00:09:26,919 --> 00:09:30,799
They're the youngest team in the NBA right now, and

174
00:09:30,919 --> 00:09:33,440
for young teams to get destroyed and then come back

175
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,639
and play really well, it's not uncommon. In fact, it's

176
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,080
more of the way for them to have such variance

177
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:43,120
between games. So to me, I'd probably look at the

178
00:09:43,159 --> 00:09:46,120
nets here thinking that Los Angeles just doesn't play enough

179
00:09:46,159 --> 00:09:51,799
defense to warrant being a nine point road favorite against

180
00:09:51,799 --> 00:09:55,080
a team that may be a little I won't use

181
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,240
that word, but a little angry that they got destroyed

182
00:09:58,279 --> 00:10:01,639
by so many points by Detroit. Certainly Detroit's capable of

183
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,480
holding them to what they held them through seventy seven

184
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,720
because they do play deep and crashboards. So and maybe

185
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,600
you look at Brooklyn ski I didn't play the game.

186
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:09,320
Doubt I will.

187
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 1: All right, we can't keep going with this one. I

188
00:10:13,799 --> 00:10:16,440
would be betting I'll be betting Brooklyn or nothing in

189
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,879
this one. Lakers don't play good enough defense for me

190
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,679
to expect them to win by that big of a margin.

191
00:10:21,039 --> 00:10:23,080
Reeves could come back in and just mess up the

192
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,720
flow of things. I do like Ruy, though, Ruy to

193
00:10:26,759 --> 00:10:30,159
continue to do whatever he You know, he's gonna play hard,

194
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,200
he's gonna get attempts in his role. He's doing the

195
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,440
little things that they need to help them win. I

196
00:10:35,519 --> 00:10:39,759
like Roy pra tonight in that one next game up,

197
00:10:39,759 --> 00:10:45,799
we would go magic and thunder and right around I'm

198
00:10:45,799 --> 00:10:48,159
sorry open six and a half looks like eight or

199
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,399
eight and a half photo is right around the opener. Though.

200
00:10:51,639 --> 00:10:55,919
As far as injuries, Castleton and Franz Wagner out, Okay,

201
00:10:55,919 --> 00:10:58,919
see a lot of people man J. Dubb and Mitchell

202
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:07,840
both out, Dalen Williams, Chad Hardenstein, Sga and Caruso all questionable.

203
00:11:08,519 --> 00:11:13,919
I mean, okay, see coming up that win versus Denver

204
00:11:17,039 --> 00:11:20,039
just based off injury report, like they're too interested in

205
00:11:20,039 --> 00:11:23,919
playing here tonight. But you never know. You could get

206
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:28,240
most of these guys rolled in as it currently stands,

207
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,840
I think you'd probably get the better effort of the magic.

208
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,279
The magic we at least know who are who's playing

209
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:35,879
right now. I would lean towards the Magic.

210
00:11:35,879 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 2: What do you think, Yeah, it seems like Oklahoma City,

211
00:11:39,879 --> 00:11:43,639
which hadn't been playing that well, and who knows why.

212
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,799
I mean, obviously the injury list has been pretty full

213
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,240
the last three weeks or so. But maybe Okay c

214
00:11:51,519 --> 00:11:54,279
you know, a little disinterested at this time of year's ski.

215
00:11:54,399 --> 00:11:56,840
Maybe they weren't covering numbers, they weren't even winning games

216
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,720
against teams they should have blown out. But they certainly

217
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,120
had full focus on the Denver game the other night.

218
00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:05,679
It's like as if you know, that was the one

219
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,759
thing circled on their calendar, is we're gonna win there

220
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,639
against Jokichen beat that team, and they did. They beat

221
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,240
him pretty soundly. And now it looks like with this

222
00:12:14,279 --> 00:12:16,559
injury list, maybe they don't care as much. I do

223
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,879
think Orlando cares lose to San Antonio the other night

224
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,639
kind of you know, I had Orlando team total in

225
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,759
that game over I think one oh nine and a

226
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,360
half won ten something like that, and they had put

227
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,759
up a forty point second quarter, and I thought, here

228
00:12:33,799 --> 00:12:36,000
we go, should be on our way. We're more than

229
00:12:36,039 --> 00:12:39,159
halfway there already, and next thing you know, they're throwing

230
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,720
up eighteen and a third, Webbin Yama defensively. I don't

231
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,399
know that we talk about it enough. I know that

232
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,320
you talk about it a lot, but just every time

233
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,720
you watch this guy, he's a people can't shoot against

234
00:12:51,759 --> 00:12:54,240
this guy. It's crazy watching teams try and get shots

235
00:12:54,279 --> 00:12:58,559
up against Wemby when he's fully into the game. It's

236
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,559
like trying to shoot into a mill. It just keeps

237
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,399
coming at you. And Orlando had their struggles, but I

238
00:13:05,399 --> 00:13:09,840
think here they were playing pretty decently after that Miami win.

239
00:13:11,279 --> 00:13:13,600
I gave you the quotes. I think you interpreted it

240
00:13:13,639 --> 00:13:17,960
for me when when Jamel Mosley was talking about what

241
00:13:18,039 --> 00:13:22,639
they their philosophy is paying off now and they did

242
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,919
score one thirty plus two games in a row before

243
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,440
that San Antonio game SAT, I think they've got the

244
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,639
goods to come up with a point spread cover here.

245
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,200
I would look their way, all.

246
00:13:34,159 --> 00:13:37,039
Speaker 1: Right, one more game here before we move over to

247
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:42,440
another segment. Sixers and Warriors opened up minus one and

248
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,399
a half for the Warriors. Looks like three or three

249
00:13:44,399 --> 00:13:46,720
and a half. I oulda went from two nineteen and

250
00:13:46,759 --> 00:13:48,799
a half to two twenty one or two twenty one

251
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,879
and a half. Despite Steph Curry being out tonight no Steph,

252
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:59,159
no Seth, no Kaminga, no crier. Embeid also doubtful total

253
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,399
continues to go up here. That's what's standing out to me.

254
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,279
I mean, we know the Warriors in general like to

255
00:14:04,279 --> 00:14:09,200
play a pace, but I can't help but think a

256
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,399
lot of that offense is missing here. Some reason, this

257
00:14:12,519 --> 00:14:15,159
one keeps ticking up. I like to think the pace

258
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,200
quickens without Embid as well for the Sixers, what do

259
00:14:18,279 --> 00:14:20,679
you think Sixers and Warriors.

260
00:14:21,639 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's still a lot of guard wing type offense.

261
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:31,399
I'm Philadelphia. And when when Embiid is out, certainly the

262
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,240
rim defense becomes a little bit less. You have Andre Drummond.

263
00:14:35,279 --> 00:14:38,120
He'll give you twenty five solid minutes rebounding and whatnot.

264
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,960
Adam Bona is a guy I talked about earlier in

265
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,960
the year. I kind of like his energy at the rim.

266
00:14:44,039 --> 00:14:47,600
But for the Sixers, like I say, Maxi edgecumbe oubre

267
00:14:49,679 --> 00:14:52,759
Quentin Grimes, all these guys can still score. These guys

268
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,600
are all twenty a game. When I mean Grimes, when

269
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,559
everybody was hurt last year, was a leading scorer for

270
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,519
this team. So they got plenty of firepower here against

271
00:15:01,519 --> 00:15:04,200
a very small Golden State team. The back to back

272
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,360
situation holds me back a little bit, But I have

273
00:15:06,399 --> 00:15:10,480
a number for you that might negate any fear that

274
00:15:10,519 --> 00:15:15,039
you have of playing Philly on back to back. Philadelphia

275
00:15:15,279 --> 00:15:19,240
eight and one against the spread this season with no rest,

276
00:15:19,679 --> 00:15:22,399
ten and two against the spread with any type of

277
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:27,840
rest disadvantage. Eight and four straight up in rest disadvantage games.

278
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,720
So not only are they covering, but they're winning sixty

279
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,240
seven percent of those twelve when they're at a rest disadvantage.

280
00:15:34,279 --> 00:15:38,279
And here they are at the rest disadvantage, but they're

281
00:15:38,279 --> 00:15:42,039
playing a team that's shallow on the depth chart in

282
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,320
the rotation. So Philadelphia looks like, you know, I won

283
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,279
with them last night. Team total was really really easy.

284
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,639
It's possible at this price could come back with him.

285
00:15:52,639 --> 00:15:54,639
I'm just gonna look up. The current is again only

286
00:15:54,679 --> 00:15:58,120
one O nine and a half. I don't know Ski.

287
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,120
To me, it looks low because I don't think Maxi Edgecombe,

288
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,440
Oh Bray Grimes. I don't think those guys ever run

289
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,879
out of energy. So I may get there with Philadelphia.

290
00:16:06,919 --> 00:16:07,440
Team total.

291
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's making it. That's making sense to me. People

292
00:16:11,039 --> 00:16:13,399
in the chat liking that as well. City by the

293
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,759
Bay sorry, he was not on my list of what

294
00:16:15,799 --> 00:16:18,919
I was looking at this morning. And I don't want

295
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:20,440
to just stop the show right now to go pull

296
00:16:20,519 --> 00:16:22,440
up player props. I just already did a show on

297
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,679
player props, So sorry, I can't help you with that.

298
00:16:26,279 --> 00:16:29,240
Mark asked, is Golden State going to contribute? Well, they're

299
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,240
their favorite. If you don't think they're going to contribute,

300
00:16:31,399 --> 00:16:37,840
I mean there's a nice Philadelphia plus wait on you

301
00:16:37,879 --> 00:16:41,720
to push the button. So if you don't think there

302
00:16:41,759 --> 00:16:46,000
can contribute, maybe Sixers money Line has decided to go there?

303
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,919
All right, a little bit something. I mean, this show

304
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,720
has been different, but we're gonna mix it up even more. Veno,

305
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,720
you know about about this. You've been around, it's not

306
00:16:56,759 --> 00:16:57,200
new to you.

307
00:16:58,039 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 2: I want to know how many in the chat remember this.

308
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:00,840
This is good.

309
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody, honestly, it's been so long. But

310
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,599
one of my favorites. We're gonna go over to that.

311
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,319
That's my dog, Sam, that's.

312
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 2: My dog, my dog.

313
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 3: That's my dog. And anybody gotta say anything, you let

314
00:17:20,759 --> 00:17:31,759
me know that's my dog, my dog.

315
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: Can I make that? Can make it big? Oh man?

316
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,680
What are we doing here? Messing it up? Ro you

317
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,920
know for my dog, I'm gonna go with Denver Nuggets.

318
00:17:42,279 --> 00:17:43,960
Be'st never you can get right now, it's plus five

319
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,880
and a half. I like them because they just lost

320
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:51,240
to Okay. See. Really teams that have been getting embarrassed

321
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,440
and I say embarrassed, you know, losing by double ditches

322
00:17:53,519 --> 00:17:56,200
not covering versus Okay. See, they usually bounce back in

323
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,319
that next spot, and it's the Nuggets opportunity to bounce

324
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,000
back in the spot that been good in all year.

325
00:18:01,519 --> 00:18:04,400
They are seven and one aps as a road dog,

326
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,240
they've had Detroy's number. I know Detroy's a little better

327
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,119
this year, but they beat Detroit ten of the last

328
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,440
twelve head the head meetings. The most recent one was

329
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,240
a week ago. They did lose that one, it was

330
00:18:16,279 --> 00:18:19,240
without Yolkic, they only lost by two points. The only

331
00:18:19,279 --> 00:18:22,240
other loss was in twenty twenty two. It was Yokic's

332
00:18:22,279 --> 00:18:25,480
first first game back after COVID or something like that,

333
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,480
and they lost by two as well. So I don't

334
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,240
think the Pistons have been playing well enough to lay

335
00:18:31,279 --> 00:18:34,440
these five points. I will go with the Nuggets plus

336
00:18:34,759 --> 00:18:38,279
as my dog here rop you know, for you, what

337
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,519
will you rock with as your dog today?

338
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 2: Wow, let's see here I do. I will definitely co

339
00:18:47,599 --> 00:18:49,440
sign on the Nuggets, and I think I'll just move

340
00:18:49,519 --> 00:18:51,359
to another There's a couple here, but I think I'll

341
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:52,960
go to a game that we talked about on the

342
00:18:53,039 --> 00:18:55,920
show and take Orlando plus eight and a half year

343
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,200
against OKC. Even if they don't win, I think they'll

344
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,079
play within that number. Home of city. You saw it

345
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:05,400
the other night. The energy level, the focus, the motivation,

346
00:19:05,599 --> 00:19:11,240
the post game how you know, they're kind of level,

347
00:19:11,519 --> 00:19:14,240
so to speak, where emotion is concerned all the time.

348
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,119
But they were a little bit happy with themselves for

349
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,400
beating Denver the way they did. So that injury list

350
00:19:20,599 --> 00:19:23,720
obviously a lot of those guys could play here tonight.

351
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,640
There's just a bunch of questionables. But I think eight

352
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,279
and a half still is too much here. I think

353
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,880
Orlando bounces back from the San anton game the other night,

354
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,039
So I'll take Orlando as my dog. Plus eight and half.

355
00:19:34,559 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 1: Are good stuff from mister Rono, and I'll get that

356
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,160
figured out there we go. I'll get it together. Good

357
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,240
stuff from Robno. Yeah, you know. Now we're gonna move

358
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,240
it over the best bets. And before I do all

359
00:19:48,279 --> 00:19:50,440
that good stuff, there won't be any shot clock for

360
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,319
the people who did. Remember, there were some people out

361
00:19:52,319 --> 00:19:58,240
there too, you know we're there. Yeah, Tachi says, big throwback,

362
00:19:59,039 --> 00:20:04,720
but Tone said that that's my dog. Some people did

363
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:10,039
recognize that one, all right. So before we get the

364
00:20:10,079 --> 00:20:12,559
best bet, let's promo a little bit like we usually do.

365
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:17,920
That means we do have what the ten days of

366
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,880
all access for the price of seven, we'll save sixty

367
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:25,200
nine dollars. I think that's a pretty good way to

368
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,839
get involved. If you like a little bit longer, you

369
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,319
can do the super Bowl to super Bowl all access.

370
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,640
It's ninety nine dollars per month and you'll get all

371
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:39,079
access every sport from now until next February. So veno.

372
00:20:40,039 --> 00:20:41,839
I'd like to think that I did an okay job

373
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,680
on promo. But if there's anything else that I miss,

374
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,480
if there's anything else you like to promote, oh, you

375
00:20:46,519 --> 00:20:49,319
know what, I didn't do a good enough job. We

376
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:54,039
got college Tuesday right, a dollar Tuesday. So both Rob

377
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,920
Vino and myself have a top play up on our

378
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,640
page for five dollars. If you want to be involved,

379
00:21:00,079 --> 00:21:01,359
you guys know where to find it. The link to

380
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,720
our page. Just scrolling on the bottom of the screen.

381
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,480
Now I'm going to pass it to you. You know,

382
00:21:06,799 --> 00:21:10,079
if there's anything else you like promote, feel free. If

383
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:11,839
you have a best bet for the show, we'd love

384
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,599
to hear it. If you don't, it's all good.

385
00:21:15,759 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 2: I think promotions are well covered their ski. You added

386
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,400
the five dollars Tuesday in at the end and the

387
00:21:22,519 --> 00:21:24,720
throwback to That's My Dog. I just thinking about it

388
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,799
while you were talking there, and also while you were

389
00:21:26,799 --> 00:21:31,000
talking there, I went to my trustee apps and made

390
00:21:31,039 --> 00:21:33,079
one play. So that's what I'm going to leave is

391
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:34,960
the best bet because it's the play I bet. We

392
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,839
talked it out a little bit here on the show.

393
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,440
I was close to making the play, didn't make it

394
00:21:40,519 --> 00:21:42,240
until just now, But I'm going to be on the

395
00:21:42,279 --> 00:21:45,160
sixers team total over one oh nine and a half.

396
00:21:46,519 --> 00:21:48,680
The whole thing just sets up really well, and I

397
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,079
think you get a bargain price on their team total

398
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,880
because embiid is out. That seems to be the contributing

399
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,960
factor to why Golden State's gone up from one to three,

400
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:03,079
because certainly Golden State's not going up on their own merits.

401
00:22:03,079 --> 00:22:05,359
They're going up on the basis of a team on

402
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,440
a back to back and without Joel Embiid, and Philly

403
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,079
can still score. Without Joel Embid, they score in a

404
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:15,000
different way. Joel's been great lately. But I mentioned the

405
00:22:15,079 --> 00:22:17,359
four guys in all the speed that they bring to

406
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,680
the game. So smallest Golden State team, quick Philadelphia team,

407
00:22:21,839 --> 00:22:26,240
and Philly's playing good. I saw a quote. I'm dragging

408
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:27,480
this out a little bit, but I just want to

409
00:22:27,519 --> 00:22:30,960
say I saw a quote from I forget which Philly

410
00:22:31,079 --> 00:22:33,720
starter it was, might have been Maxie who said, they

411
00:22:33,759 --> 00:22:36,160
honestly think they have a chance in the East. Right now,

412
00:22:36,599 --> 00:22:39,000
we'll see if they do. The one reason why I

413
00:22:39,039 --> 00:22:42,519
hadn't pulled the trigger on this game until just now

414
00:22:42,799 --> 00:22:47,680
was I'm worried about Golden State trading. But seriously, that

415
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,440
doesn't involve the Philly team totals. So that's the reason

416
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,039
why I made that bet. Philly team total best bet

417
00:22:53,079 --> 00:22:54,160
over one O nine and a half.

418
00:22:55,200 --> 00:23:02,119
Speaker 1: Good stuff. Robino Tachi says, where's the contrarion play the day?

419
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:05,519
Maybe we should get that debt.

420
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 2: I hated that the Contrarian gods, and I hated that.

421
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,559
Speaker 1: Well, you know what that is now it is now

422
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:17,880
we've seen this before, rob you.

423
00:23:17,839 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 2: Know, yeah, that's true too. I think we've rebranded it

424
00:23:21,839 --> 00:23:22,279
very well.

425
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,759
Speaker 1: Ski Yeah, yeah, we got a different one on ere

426
00:23:24,839 --> 00:23:30,160
on this this show. My best bet I'm gonna go with.

427
00:23:31,599 --> 00:23:35,759
I'm gonna go with Rueye over thirteen and a half

428
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,839
PRA man and I should pull this up. I think

429
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,160
he's hit this. He's been hitting it like crazy, as

430
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,279
long as he gets twenty two minutes, which he's getting,

431
00:23:45,319 --> 00:23:48,039
as long as it's not a blowout, as long as

432
00:23:48,079 --> 00:23:51,200
he's not just coming back from injury. He's cleared with

433
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,599
this PRRA number. My bet, I'm gonna get it here

434
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,359
because I think it's important. So I apologize to you

435
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,559
guys for not having it ready. You have to hear me,

436
00:24:00,279 --> 00:24:04,599
you know, bullshit for just a second here, But here

437
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:11,759
we go. Twenty two minutes. He's hit it sixteen put max. Actually,

438
00:24:12,599 --> 00:24:14,880
he's hit it twenty five out of thirty two games

439
00:24:15,039 --> 00:24:18,039
so far this season, thirteen and a half pr As

440
00:24:18,079 --> 00:24:20,359
long as he's getting twenty two minutes, I'm pretty sure

441
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,000
he's getting twenty two minutes, regardless if Reeves comes back

442
00:24:23,079 --> 00:24:25,960
tonight or not. He's comfortable in his role. He said

443
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,240
that he's going to do the little things to stay

444
00:24:28,279 --> 00:24:30,480
on the court with rebound whatever the case may be.

445
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,920
I like, really over thirteen and a half twenty three

446
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:38,000
bounds in the sist, that's my best bet for the show.

447
00:24:39,799 --> 00:24:42,480
There they go, you know, attach he says. Contrarion gods

448
00:24:42,519 --> 00:24:44,960
were always on Vino's ass.

449
00:24:45,039 --> 00:24:50,519
Speaker 2: Right there, Probably why I hate them, guys.

450
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,599
Speaker 1: I always appreciate you taking time to break the games

451
00:24:55,599 --> 00:24:57,519
down with me. You know, helps my process. I'm sure

452
00:24:57,559 --> 00:25:01,440
it helps everybody else out as well. People in the chat.

453
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,359
Always gonna let you know you're appreciated. Great cappers, great people,

454
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,119
and you help make the show what it is. So

455
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,640
always gonna let you guys know that we will be

456
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,519
back again tomorrow. Don't think we'll have this big of

457
00:25:13,559 --> 00:25:16,119
a slate, but if we do, we'll still cap it.

458
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,799
So that's the luck on all your action tonight, and

459
00:25:18,839 --> 00:25:20,240
we will catch you off then
