1 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:05,639 Speaker 1: What's up, everybody? Welcome into another episode of Profit Picks. 2 00:00:05,799 --> 00:00:08,679 If you are new, we always start this show by 3 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:14,640 being transparent and another good day yesterday, let's pull it 4 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,000 up just I could be specific, so it looks like 5 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,559 four and one Falcons plus five and a half was 6 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:25,320 my top play Repelicans cash bejone over fifteen and a half. 7 00:00:25,399 --> 00:00:30,679 Longest reception cash Nuggets and Kings. I was mad at 8 00:00:30,679 --> 00:00:33,439 myself for a lot of the game for not taking 9 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,280 Nuggets team total over, but I ended up getting there 10 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,159 at the last second with the full game over two 11 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,240 thirty nine, So that did hit and the loser was 12 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:48,159 in college basketball Rio Grande University, Texas, Rio Grande. I 13 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:54,000 guess that business being on that game, you know, yeah, yeah, 14 00:00:53,719 --> 00:00:56,719 I don't know what I'm doing with that, but you know, 15 00:00:56,799 --> 00:00:59,880 it's good to be back with you everything. 16 00:01:00,079 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 2: Yes, that was good, Ski, and it was really good 17 00:01:04,719 --> 00:01:09,120 because I haven't had a lot of big, big plays recently, 18 00:01:09,159 --> 00:01:11,200 but I have one last night and we talked about 19 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,920 it here. I'm the Tampa Bay team total over. They 20 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,519 don't win the game. In fact, I go back to 21 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,719 the show and run the tape back. I think we 22 00:01:18,799 --> 00:01:20,640 could have parlayed with each other because I know you 23 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,920 had a lean towards Atlanta, and I had the Tampa 24 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,719 Bay team total. That gets there. NBA, I did have 25 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,200 the Nuggets team total over, so the one thirty six 26 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,840 was nice. That was two and oh and then college 27 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,319 who Virginia Tech Western Carolina over was nice. And I 28 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,079 had the Missouri team total up and over ninety two 29 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,159 they had fifty two at halftime. I thought I was 30 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,200 in the clear, but sort of let off the gas 31 00:01:45,239 --> 00:01:47,519 pedal against a team they were twenty seven point favorites 32 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,359 against and only wund up with eighty five. So three 33 00:01:49,359 --> 00:01:51,760 and one will take. It was a good day, and 34 00:01:52,359 --> 00:01:56,040 for what it's worth, it actually pushed me back to 35 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,239 number one in the NFL. At wager talks, it was 36 00:01:58,239 --> 00:01:58,640 a good. 37 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,359 Speaker 1: Night nice all right, let's see if we can we 38 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,319 can keep it up here today we have most games, 39 00:02:05,319 --> 00:02:08,560 it looks like we've had all week in the NBA, 40 00:02:08,599 --> 00:02:11,639 at least on Friday. So we'll start at the top. 41 00:02:11,719 --> 00:02:15,840 Cleveland Washington Open fourteen and a half. That's where we're sitting. 42 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,719 Total though, has gone up from two thirty eight and 43 00:02:18,759 --> 00:02:20,919 a half. That's how it's two forty four and a 44 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,680 half and when I look at who is on the 45 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:30,159 injury report, Jared Allen, Merrill nets Struce, all out for 46 00:02:30,199 --> 00:02:38,759 Cleveland Blood, Chris Middleton, Corey Kispert, Alex R. Malac Brandham 47 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,919 all out, Yeah, all out for this Wizards team. It's hard. 48 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,039 I mean it's hard for me to back this Wizards team, 49 00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:51,479 like I've just seeing them. They'll be in a game 50 00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:56,639 for three They're being a game for two and a half, quarters, 51 00:02:56,719 --> 00:03:02,000 three quarters, and it just absolutely implode. The Cavs still 52 00:03:02,039 --> 00:03:05,159 a team I just don't trust, defensibly, especially without Jared Allen, 53 00:03:05,879 --> 00:03:08,039 And I don't like that, you know, marrows out to 54 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,879 space the floor. This is the game I'm ultimately going 55 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,199 to stay away from. But you know, is there anything 56 00:03:13,199 --> 00:03:13,840 you'd like here? 57 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,599 Speaker 2: Yeah? I didn't play ski. I see the total has 58 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,719 taken a ton of money, up six points all the 59 00:03:20,719 --> 00:03:22,479 way to two forty four. I don't know that I 60 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,199 could argue that because, again, to your point, we've kind 61 00:03:26,199 --> 00:03:28,479 of harped on it on this show, the lack of 62 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,000 deep that's shown by the Cavaliers for the majority of 63 00:03:31,039 --> 00:03:33,199 the season. But I think it's still scored like crazy. 64 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,599 Washington gives it up like crazy. So I don't know. 65 00:03:38,639 --> 00:03:40,840 Maybe early money was right. I don't think I'll find 66 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,360 my way to the over in that game. But I 67 00:03:43,439 --> 00:03:46,560 have a lot of difficulty with most of these games. 68 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,000 They just because as I said, yes say, I don't 69 00:03:49,039 --> 00:03:52,199 know what the long layoff does to these teams. It's 70 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,840 probably specific to each team. But you know, yesterday we 71 00:03:56,879 --> 00:04:00,240 saw the Pelicans who actually had played on my They 72 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,479 come up with one hundred and forty three. They look 73 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,199 pretty good in their effort. But some of these teams 74 00:04:06,199 --> 00:04:09,919 that haven't played since last Sunday or Saturday playing now 75 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,319 on Friday, I just don't know how to react to 76 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,159 whether it'll be rest or rust. 77 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: Very fair, very fair, pretty big break. So we shall see. 78 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: On that one. 79 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,399 Speaker 1: Not a game I want to get involved with. Hawks 80 00:04:23,439 --> 00:04:26,319 and Pistons did open up six and a half for Detroit. 81 00:04:26,439 --> 00:04:29,319 Looks like seven and a half total hasn't really moved. 82 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:34,120 Don't only see Jones on the Isaac Jones on the 83 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:39,439 injury report for the Pistons for Atlanta, though Dante Terristic 84 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:46,079 porzingis treyon all out. I don't know. I feel like 85 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:50,680 this Hawks team matches up okay with the Pistons, Like 86 00:04:53,759 --> 00:04:55,279 maybe if I like Atlanta. I just want to take 87 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,759 Jaysen Johnson over hit his points or pr a or 88 00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:02,279 something like that. But I want to think Atlanta can 89 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,120 stay in this game here, Robie, no any opinion from 90 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:06,639 you on Atlanta in Detroit. 91 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would look Atlanta's way, just because Detroit's been 92 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,079 on such a slide. And again, I don't know if 93 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,959 the layoff was good for Detroit to not have played 94 00:05:15,959 --> 00:05:20,240 in a while. But you know, they are one in seven. 95 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,680 I think I'm staring at here. Ats last eight games 96 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,680 one in seven played, Atlanta only beat them by one 97 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:32,079 point ninety nine ninety eight very recently first of December. 98 00:05:32,639 --> 00:05:34,759 So for those reasons, I think I would like to 99 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,959 look towards Atlanta first, just because Detroit's not playing nearly 100 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,720 as well as they were playing at the beginning of 101 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,439 the season. Asking them to cover and win by eight 102 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,199 is a little bit much. However, again, the dilemma I 103 00:05:47,319 --> 00:05:50,360 run into is maybe they needed to break, maybe they 104 00:05:50,399 --> 00:05:54,199 needed to regroup and get back to where they were 105 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:59,199 started the season. So very very slight leaned towards the 106 00:05:59,199 --> 00:06:02,480 Atlanta Hawks here, plus the points money's going against me here, 107 00:06:02,519 --> 00:06:06,160 But I might lean that way. 108 00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:10,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking, honestly, you know, these first few games, 109 00:06:11,439 --> 00:06:14,560 I'm not really liking the last the last few games, 110 00:06:14,879 --> 00:06:16,560 I'm liking a lot more. So I'm gonna just keep 111 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,519 going down the list here. Bulls and Hornets did open 112 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,680 three and a half for the Bulls, looks like three 113 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,759 total came down from two thirty three and a half low. 114 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,439 It's two twenty nine. As far as the injuries, a 115 00:06:29,439 --> 00:06:36,959 lot of them. Collins, Trey, Jones, korro Jyalen Smith, Kobe 116 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,920 Watt all probable, Dinsumer and hurt Her out for Charlotte. 117 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:51,959 Di Balte probable, LaMelo Conton, Trey Man, Colin Sexton, and 118 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,439 Williams look like they're all out for this Charlotte Hornets team. 119 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,000 I know, you know, I don't really trust the offense 120 00:07:00,199 --> 00:07:03,360 that's going to be out there. I want to stay under, 121 00:07:03,399 --> 00:07:05,680 but I also don't trust the defense. Not a game 122 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,959 I love. But the market did push the total down. 123 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,120 I guess I'd have to agree with that. What do 124 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,920 you think I. 125 00:07:11,879 --> 00:07:13,959 Speaker 2: Can't play the bull The Bulls have fallen off a 126 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,600 cliff two and eleven ats three and ten straight up 127 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,480 last thirteen. Nothing going right for them to keep all 128 00:07:21,519 --> 00:07:24,000 that talk early on about defense right out the window. 129 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,879 They're giving up a ton of points each and every night. Now, 130 00:07:28,879 --> 00:07:31,079 I would have been to Charlotte if not for the 131 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,000 injury list. Probably could have gotten to Charlotte team total, 132 00:07:34,079 --> 00:07:37,399 to tell you the truth, if not for the injury 133 00:07:37,439 --> 00:07:41,399 list here. But again, like you say, there's just not 134 00:07:41,639 --> 00:07:46,079 enough to like either side or total in these first 135 00:07:46,079 --> 00:07:50,439 few games to commit or have any conviction taking a 136 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,839 stance here. I could not play Chicago. I mean there's 137 00:07:55,879 --> 00:07:57,959 no way it would have to be Charlotte or nothing 138 00:07:58,079 --> 00:08:01,720 in some way, shape or form. 139 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,519 Speaker 1: All right, let's not waste any time. We will go 140 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,120 and I think I'm missing it. I'm missing a game here, 141 00:08:08,199 --> 00:08:13,360 so I won't have the banner right now. But Indiana, 142 00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:15,160 that's how much I care about this game. I guess 143 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,399 Indiana and Philadelphia seven and a half, Lox like seven. 144 00:08:19,839 --> 00:08:21,480 So it came down from two twenty nine and a 145 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,439 half to two twenty four and a half for Philly 146 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:30,800 and be as probable. Maxie is questionable. Oubres out, Wilfer's 147 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:36,399 out the same. My thing just refreshed and went to 148 00:08:36,399 --> 00:08:38,320 a different page. But the same people were out for 149 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:43,320 the for the Pacers. Yeah, you know, I don't understand 150 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,879 why this line is where it's at with Maxi downgraded questionable. Honestly, 151 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,840 I feel like it should be it should be a 152 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,960 lot lower. So I don't know. I don't like when 153 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,840 the line feels real funny like this is it? Why 154 00:08:57,879 --> 00:09:00,279 would it still be seven? With MAXI? Question? Well, are 155 00:09:00,279 --> 00:09:01,960 they saying he's still going to play? What do you 156 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:02,759 think about this game? 157 00:09:03,519 --> 00:09:06,279 Speaker 2: Yeah? It makes no sense. Ski. First of all, you 158 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,120 can't I mean, Tyrese Maxi is the guy, right, We're 159 00:09:10,159 --> 00:09:15,159 not telling anybody anything they don't already know, and it 160 00:09:15,279 --> 00:09:18,159 almost is telling us that he's going to play. I mean, 161 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:23,000 with the numbers sticking where it is. If that's the case, 162 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,320 I would have been on over as well. But I'll 163 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,879 say this, I've really liked the way Indiana's played lately. 164 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,720 I know they haven't racked up a ton of wins, 165 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,000 but they seem to be getting better and better and better. 166 00:09:33,039 --> 00:09:36,559 We've talked about their health throughout the season not being great. 167 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,480 It looks to me still this could be one of 168 00:09:40,519 --> 00:09:42,799 those games. Sk'll say this where later on in the day, right, 169 00:09:42,879 --> 00:09:46,679 take advantage of just been over in this contest because 170 00:09:46,759 --> 00:09:48,720 I don't think there's gonna be a lot of defense 171 00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:51,600 on the floor, and I do think there'll be a 172 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,080 lot of back and forth up and down, whether it's 173 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:58,159 Tyres or not Tyree's. And in that case, you wait 174 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:02,960 this thing out, he's ruled potentially out and you getting 175 00:10:03,039 --> 00:10:07,440 even better number. No bet on the game. But I 176 00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:10,919 could be one who goes against the green where that 177 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,559 total is concerned and plays over. 178 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna move over to the next game here, 179 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:24,480 you know that is Jazz and Grizzlies. This one, this 180 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,639 one's interesting to me too. Opened up six and a half, 181 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,639 looks like seven seven and a halfs out there. Total 182 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,519 went from two thirty nine and a half as high 183 00:10:32,519 --> 00:10:35,879 as to forty two and a half. Look at the 184 00:10:35,919 --> 00:10:41,399 injury report for Utah only knee Yang is out. Everybody 185 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:47,720 else available for Memphis though, you do have Ja Morant probable, 186 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:53,159 but still no Clark. There's no Edy again, Jerome Contard, 187 00:10:53,240 --> 00:11:01,200 Pittman small all out. This This is like, why are 188 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:06,559 the Grizzlies still when it's seven here? The Grizzlies defenses 189 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,159 look good. The Jazz defense has looked pathetic. I mean, 190 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,879 I guess you can start there and there at home, 191 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,080 but the Grizzlies offense hasn't looked great. Maybe they're going 192 00:11:17,159 --> 00:11:20,679 to get a boost with John right there. I don't know. 193 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,399 This line is a seven for a reason, seven and 194 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,000 a half for a reason. Rabino, what do you think 195 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,080 about Utah and Memphis? 196 00:11:27,399 --> 00:11:30,759 Speaker 2: You know, if we could trust any consistency out of 197 00:11:30,919 --> 00:11:35,120 Utah's road offense, I would have played Total pretty easily 198 00:11:35,159 --> 00:11:38,279 here up and over. But again it's something that we've 199 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:43,320 documented a lot on this show, Utah's discrepancy between what 200 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,120 they score at home and what they score on the road. 201 00:11:46,159 --> 00:11:48,120 And it's not like they can't score on the road, 202 00:11:48,159 --> 00:11:52,240 it's the consistency of them doing it because they can 203 00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:57,080 easily go from one oh one to one one on 204 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,200 the road. If I knew they were going to get 205 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,279 to one twenty, they might against this Memphis defense, again, Zachy, 206 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,480 he's not in the game. That's basically all of their 207 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,600 rim protection, and without him you get to the hoop 208 00:12:08,639 --> 00:12:11,519 a little bit easier if you're Utah. So I could 209 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,200 probably build a case if I really wanted to to 210 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,080 play this game over with job back, because Utah is 211 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,200 not going to stop anybody from scoring. But the number 212 00:12:20,279 --> 00:12:22,320 is up there ski to forty three and a half, 213 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,240 and you know, the road with a road team that 214 00:12:25,279 --> 00:12:30,639 has not scored consistently enough to although I'll say this, boy, 215 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,840 you look at their game logs and they can give 216 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:37,320 up one thirty in an instant, Hutah can and you 217 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,639 don't have to do much as the road underdog here 218 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,559 to get it up and over at that point. So 219 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,759 it would be the only way I look. I would 220 00:12:44,799 --> 00:12:47,320 have to look Memphis Utah over the total here or 221 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,039 else just not play all right. 222 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: Over the total. I can understand that as well. Yeah, 223 00:12:55,639 --> 00:12:58,519 I think it's moving in the right direction. I agree 224 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,519 with that. Play on over. I will write that on 225 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:06,879 my shortlist. Actually, so my bad here, give me Utah 226 00:13:07,279 --> 00:13:12,360 over or on the short list? All right, Nets and 227 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,879 mass this is the game I'm pretty interested in here 228 00:13:15,039 --> 00:13:19,399 opened up minus seven looks like eight pretty much everywhere. 229 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,240 Total open two twenty four and a half, down as 230 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,600 low as two twenty one and a half for Brooklyn, 231 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,399 No high Smith, still no camp Thomas. For Dallas, you 232 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:35,159 have Dangelow, Russell questionable, Daniel Gafford doubtfo still no Kyrie 233 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:42,399 for them. Man, you know this one it is for me. 234 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,679 It just boils down to I don't view Dallas as 235 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,799 this kind of a team to be laying eight points. 236 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,840 I don't really care who it's against, unless maybe it's 237 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,279 the Wigards. Maybe they deserve but I don't know. The Nets. 238 00:13:57,399 --> 00:14:00,320 I feel like they've been playing solid basketball lately, or 239 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,559 at least, you know, better basketball than they have earlier 240 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:08,200 in the season lately. And the Mavericks they're zero to 241 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,759 five as a own favorite this year, they're gonna have 242 00:14:11,759 --> 00:14:14,600 to show me that they can win by margin that 243 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,200 they ferreed it out. I think combination of those things. 244 00:14:18,279 --> 00:14:20,679 Just it's Nets or nothing for me at plus eight. 245 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:21,840 How do you feel about this? 246 00:14:23,639 --> 00:14:26,559 Speaker 2: Yeah? Just I mean to put even more context to 247 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:31,080 your point, this is a Dallas team that actually was 248 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,399 an eight or something point favorite over New Orleans on 249 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,639 this floor in New Orleans in a back to back situation, 250 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,200 and New Orleans won the game straight up. So they 251 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:41,600 talk about untrustworthy. 252 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,879 Speaker 1: Oh Dallas, Yeah, I remember that game. Actually now you 253 00:14:44,919 --> 00:14:47,840 say that, right, Yeah, I mean you can't. 254 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,919 Speaker 2: That's at that time and maybe still is. 255 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,279 Speaker 3: I think New Orleans is a little better now than 256 00:14:53,279 --> 00:14:54,759 they were then, But that might have been one of 257 00:14:54,799 --> 00:14:57,519 the worst teams in the NBA and Dallas couldn't even 258 00:14:57,519 --> 00:14:59,639 win a game straight up, But that when I have 259 00:15:00,679 --> 00:15:01,440 notice to your ski. 260 00:15:01,519 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 2: What I went over some stuff this morning was six 261 00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:07,159 and oh to the over is the Dallas team total 262 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,679 in their last six games. So they've been scoring a 263 00:15:10,679 --> 00:15:15,279 little bit better. You know, we talked about or we 264 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,399 talk about their bigs being an asset, but when you 265 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,240 don't have Lively or Gaffard and all you have is 266 00:15:21,279 --> 00:15:23,440 a D who the only thing I read about a 267 00:15:23,639 --> 00:15:25,960 d nowadays is where he's going to get traded to. 268 00:15:27,559 --> 00:15:29,600 There's not a lot of protection at the rim for 269 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,919 them either. So Brooklyn, in all likelihood, I think can 270 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,679 stay in this game. I think your points will taken. 271 00:15:37,759 --> 00:15:40,360 You can't trust Dallas laying a number like this. We 272 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,240 just laid up the reason why the question becomes do 273 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,279 I think the game is an over or an under? 274 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,679 And Dallas's team total kind of suggests to me, and 275 00:15:48,799 --> 00:15:51,159 especially since they have no rim protection on the other side, 276 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,159 or limited rim protection on the other side, that maybe 277 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,279 this line has moved in the wrong direction where total 278 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:02,200 is concerned. Dallas has been scoring good enough lately and 279 00:16:02,519 --> 00:16:04,960 the nets seem like, don't get theirs here too, so 280 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,440 that might be one I end up playing Dallas. 281 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,879 Speaker 1: I can't understand. I don't want to. I'm leave the 282 00:16:14,879 --> 00:16:18,440 total to you. B Man says mav has been playing 283 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:23,720 good last five. Yeah, yeah, I agree with that, Rob. 284 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,159 You know, but the nets have to I mean next 285 00:16:27,279 --> 00:16:29,799 one three the last five games. You know that's playing 286 00:16:29,799 --> 00:16:33,279 alright too. It's it's these eight points we gotta worry 287 00:16:33,279 --> 00:16:39,080 about here. If it's maths that ye, there's the equalizer, 288 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,440 this mass pick them. Okay, we're talking a different game here, 289 00:16:45,879 --> 00:16:50,879 but plus eight I think they can be competitive. Also, 290 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,120 you know that game we were talking about. It might 291 00:16:53,159 --> 00:16:55,360 have been after that game. Maybe it's another one. But 292 00:16:55,639 --> 00:16:57,559 nim Har was saying, I think we're trying to give 293 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,519 a d the ball too much. I just you didn't 294 00:17:01,519 --> 00:17:02,039 hear that one. 295 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 2: No, that point. 296 00:17:04,279 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're trying to give ad the ball too much. 297 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 2: I don't know. 298 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,799 Speaker 1: I just I don't like Dallas in this game. It's 299 00:17:10,839 --> 00:17:16,759 it's next plus eight for me, next one up, last one. 300 00:17:16,839 --> 00:17:22,559 In the NBA, Wolves and Warriors open the Warriors minus two, 301 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,400 see one and a half. Most places total open two 302 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,680 twenty seven and a half. That's how it's two thirty 303 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:35,079 one and a half. Looking at the injury report, Anthony 304 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:41,200 Edwards is questionable. Colony's out, no Draymond, no Horford, Jackson 305 00:17:41,279 --> 00:17:47,480 Davis is probable. You would hate to be missing two 306 00:17:47,519 --> 00:17:49,759 bigs versus Minnesota team. It's the first thing I think 307 00:17:49,759 --> 00:17:54,400 about here for the Warriors. But if the if Minnesota 308 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,279 is minus Anthony Edwards, I mean missing a big chunk 309 00:17:58,319 --> 00:18:02,119 of offense versus four years team as well. If Anthony 310 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:09,480 was placed, you know, obviously I think, well, here's here's 311 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,720 what I'm thinking. You know, the Wolves ended the Warrior 312 00:18:12,839 --> 00:18:17,920 season last year, and I just know teams always remember that, 313 00:18:18,039 --> 00:18:20,519 and you know, when they stick it back to you know, 314 00:18:21,279 --> 00:18:23,000 stick it back to him the next time they see him. 315 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,920 Warriors at home. Minnesota has not been good on the 316 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,279 road this season, at least as far as ats. I know. 317 00:18:30,319 --> 00:18:34,160 This one is just to pick them Minnesota. I feel 318 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,599 like they beat up on the less stands and even 319 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,519 they've been playing the less stands and not covering lately. 320 00:18:39,599 --> 00:18:42,039 I feel like Minnesota has just been a fade lately, honestly, 321 00:18:42,759 --> 00:18:45,319 but they have. They've been sneaking away with some wins 322 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,279 and not covering. Then they finally caught up and I 323 00:18:48,279 --> 00:18:52,880 think they lost their last game in the Phoenix. I 324 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,519 think the Warriors come with the greater energy from the gate. 325 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:57,759 I think it's Warrior's first half, and I think it's 326 00:18:57,759 --> 00:19:00,319 Warriors full game. I haven't got there yet, but that's 327 00:19:00,319 --> 00:19:00,799 my thoughts. 328 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 2: You know what, do you think I could see it, 329 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,480 especially if Anthony Edwards doesn't go. I mean, Minnesota is 330 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,279 one of those teams ski that I mean, we kind 331 00:19:09,279 --> 00:19:12,519 of put Denver in that basket of teams that just 332 00:19:12,599 --> 00:19:15,759 you know, they score. Minnesota scored real well, just don't 333 00:19:15,759 --> 00:19:18,720 stop anybody anymore. It's like they could care less on 334 00:19:18,759 --> 00:19:20,680 the defensive end at this point in time. That's why 335 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,960 they don't get a lot of covers because they they're 336 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:28,000 still priced kind of in the premium range. But well, 337 00:19:28,079 --> 00:19:32,440 let's go ahead, let's let's use your adage here. If 338 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,440 you can't get stops, we can't trust you. This game 339 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,680 doesn't land in that type of point spread. But I'm 340 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,160 just trying to point out where Minnesota sits right now. 341 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,640 They sit as a team that can score and doesn't 342 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,920 really defend. For Golden State, it's probably going to have 343 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,000 to be a game where they want the point. They 344 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,440 want the scoreboard to be higher. I think this game 345 00:19:52,519 --> 00:19:55,319 is going to go over. I think Golden State with 346 00:19:56,079 --> 00:19:59,359 I mean without Dreymondo, without Forford. It's just the defensive 347 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,400 capacity on that side of the Floyd, just to me, 348 00:20:02,599 --> 00:20:04,799 is not really good. So for Golden State, it's got 349 00:20:04,839 --> 00:20:08,160 to be a one to twenty four plus point effort 350 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,519 out of them tonight, which you can get to against Minnesota. 351 00:20:10,559 --> 00:20:13,599 They allow a lot of people to get more than 352 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,440 their share of points. I would look either Golden State 353 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,839 team total over or a full game over. Probably more 354 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:24,799 full game over, but I stopped there because Anthony Edwards 355 00:20:24,839 --> 00:20:26,279 if he doesn't play, I don't know if I want 356 00:20:26,279 --> 00:20:28,119 to be on full game over. In that case, I 357 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,119 would lean towards the solo team total of Golden State. 358 00:20:31,319 --> 00:20:33,119 I think that's the side I would go to. Here. 359 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,160 Just don't see a lot of Minnesota's defense at this 360 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,519 point in time, and I think Golden State's going to 361 00:20:38,559 --> 00:20:41,559 play really fast basketball tonight and probably score on Minnesota. 362 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 1: I can agree with that. It definitely seems like more 363 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,519 of an over game, especially without some of those bigspert 364 00:20:50,519 --> 00:20:52,599 the Warriors, They're gonna have to score. I agree with that, 365 00:20:53,599 --> 00:20:58,519 all right, that's the NBA car for today. You know, 366 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,359 you know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Lately, 367 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,039 I've been getting the football a little bit later, and 368 00:21:04,039 --> 00:21:07,119 it's been working out for me. I've just been focusing 369 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,359 more on basketball throughout the week, and you know, it's 370 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:14,880 been working working well for me. But I mean, we 371 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,359 do usually talk about a little bit of NFL Week fifteen, 372 00:21:17,799 --> 00:21:20,160 So I'm gonna just scroll down the list and talk 373 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:27,039 about a few games that maybe jump out to me. Actually, 374 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:33,039 I think I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go to your 375 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,680 ear boys first. How about that we already uh we 376 00:21:36,799 --> 00:21:40,559 just saw my guys on Monday, your guys Denver and 377 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,759 green Bay. I think that's a pretty good game right there. 378 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,559 That one open minus one for green Bay looks like 379 00:21:46,599 --> 00:21:49,200 two or two and a half auto went from forty 380 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,319 one and a half as high as you know, I 381 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,839 see forty two and a half pretty much everywhere. Denver 382 00:21:59,839 --> 00:22:02,440 the their top team in the league so far this season, 383 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,319 as far as record wise, eleven and two. I believe 384 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,920 haven't lost so far at home, if I'm not mistaken. 385 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,720 How many games have they won in a row? I mean, 386 00:22:12,759 --> 00:22:14,319 they won, they won a lot of games in a 387 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,240 row too, nine ten games in a row, something like that. 388 00:22:20,319 --> 00:22:28,160 I don't know, they're underdogs. Is Denver being disrespected here? Yeah, 389 00:22:28,279 --> 00:22:30,799 it's Denver being disrespected. What do you I know you 390 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,000 usually like Denver to do versus the less Dands. What 391 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:35,480 do you think they're going to do versus green Bay 392 00:22:35,519 --> 00:22:36,000 this week? 393 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean if I played them, it wouldn't be 394 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,960 based on their offense. But I agree with you. I 395 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,359 was kind of shocked that they were listed as a 396 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,960 home underdog and green Bay took a little bit of 397 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,039 money on top of that, not a lot, but a 398 00:22:50,039 --> 00:22:53,640 little bit of money towards the green Bay side. I 399 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:58,400 will say again that I don't know what everybody's so 400 00:22:58,559 --> 00:23:02,480 impressed with the green Bay Packers. I know they're getting wins. 401 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,759 You know, they're nine to four I think straight up, 402 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,319 and they've gotten Josh Jacobs. The last couple of weeks 403 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:13,720 has gotten untracked a little bit, But they didn't play 404 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,960 a clean second half last week in Chicago, and they 405 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:17,920 played half a football game. You played really good in 406 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,799 the first half and you say, Wow, green Bay's good, 407 00:23:19,839 --> 00:23:21,359 and then you watch the second half you're like, Nah, 408 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,839 maybe they're not that good. If Denver was any better offensively, 409 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,759 I would like them a little bit more. My inclination 410 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,000 is to play under in this game. The weather's going 411 00:23:33,079 --> 00:23:36,599 to be pretty good, surprisingly for Denver Colorado in December, 412 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,680 so weather won't be a problem in this game. But 413 00:23:42,039 --> 00:23:43,920 I think I thought forty two and a half was 414 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,559 a little high. Denver's pass rush is crazy good, and 415 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,920 Jordan Love will make mistakes if you get to him, 416 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,319 and of course Bo Knicks will make mistakes if you 417 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,880 get to him as well. Maybe not turnover wise, but 418 00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:00,519 poor passes take he doesn't take sacks, he'll do the 419 00:24:00,559 --> 00:24:04,000 wrong thing with the football. So I would probably look 420 00:24:04,079 --> 00:24:07,200 under ski I didn't bet it. I am a little 421 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,559 bit shocked at green base given the points here. I 422 00:24:09,559 --> 00:24:10,960 think if you have to play a side, I would 423 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,039 take Denver plus, and probably you wouldn't even take the plus. 424 00:24:15,039 --> 00:24:18,240 I'd probably just play a money line on their home field. 425 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,200 To win a game, both teams need to win There's 426 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,519 no more incentive for one side than the other here. 427 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,680 The only thing is it's a non conference game, which 428 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,880 doesn't factor into tie breakers. 429 00:24:31,039 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: I understand why you feel that way. Justin Coland feels 430 00:24:34,519 --> 00:24:37,920 that way too. I mean it seems pretty easy to 431 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:39,799 go to the window, and but the Broncos, I think 432 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,319 majority of people are going to do that. I'm not 433 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,079 going to do that. I'm pretty sure I will be 434 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,920 on the Packers in this game. I'm pretty certain this 435 00:24:50,079 --> 00:24:59,559 Broncos team they're not that good. They're fraud They're not 436 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,319 that good. They've been teetering on the loss and all 437 00:25:02,319 --> 00:25:05,160 of these wins, like if I just pull up, let 438 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,599 me pull up their schedule, actually that game. I mean 439 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,640 all of these games. I don't even have to point 440 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,680 out one. They've been so close to just losing every 441 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:18,400 single week. I feel like Broncos are overrated, you know. 442 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:20,519 I think it's pretty telling where the line is at 443 00:25:20,559 --> 00:25:23,279 right now. So I like the Packers. I'll disagree with 444 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,559 you on this one, Ravino, I'm gonna call you a 445 00:25:25,559 --> 00:25:28,039 homer in this one. 446 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 2: Save some money here. Yeah, there's no affection for me 447 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:40,240 with that offensive Denver and Sean Payton's play calling for sure. 448 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about my boys, the Chargers coming 449 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,559 off that win. That was a nice win. In that 450 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,880 last one. I did have them. Now they go into 451 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,960 Kansas City to face the Chiefs. Open the minus four 452 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,279 and a half for Kansas City up to five and 453 00:25:54,319 --> 00:26:00,880 a half, maybe might go towards six. Total came down 454 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,920 from forty four and a half to forty one and 455 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:07,440 a half. I can understand why the totals come down 456 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,559 and the city so banged up. I mean, the offensive 457 00:26:11,559 --> 00:26:13,640 line is just as banged up as the Chargers. Right, 458 00:26:16,799 --> 00:26:19,920 It's gonna either have to be quick passes and yards 459 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:25,920 after catch or for my homes and probably for the 460 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,319 Chargers too if they elect to pass, or it's gonna 461 00:26:28,319 --> 00:26:31,839 be a heavy run game. And I do trust the 462 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:36,319 Chargers to run on the Chiefs, you know how. I 463 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,279 keep saying the Chargers definitely can run block, they cannot 464 00:26:39,319 --> 00:26:42,720 pass protect, and you have two good running backs there, 465 00:26:43,039 --> 00:26:46,359 you know, to do the job for the Chargers. So 466 00:26:48,079 --> 00:26:50,960 if I think the path is both teams running the ball, 467 00:26:51,519 --> 00:26:54,480 it's a lot tiktick tick tick tick tick. So I 468 00:26:54,519 --> 00:26:57,079 pretty much agree with the line the total coming down, 469 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:01,559 And man, I want to say Kansas. 470 00:27:01,279 --> 00:27:01,839 Speaker 2: City is dead. 471 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: I mean, they're just they're too banged up. I feel 472 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,960 like I've seen enough and you know that's my guy 473 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:14,279 too over there, Mahomes. But I think it's time to 474 00:27:14,279 --> 00:27:16,839 throw in the flag. What do you think here between 475 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,319 Chiefs and Chargers. 476 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,319 Speaker 2: Well, situationally, first off, it's more difficult for LA right 477 00:27:23,319 --> 00:27:26,480 they played Monday night. Now they got a short work week, 478 00:27:26,559 --> 00:27:29,440 go play Kansas City, a team who, like you say, 479 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:34,240 they're not mathematically eliminated, but they're very close to being 480 00:27:34,279 --> 00:27:38,480 mathematically eliminated. So this is their last gas effort right here. 481 00:27:38,759 --> 00:27:43,759 Chargers are four and out inside the division. They win 482 00:27:43,839 --> 00:27:46,240 this and they end up in some kind of tie 483 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:52,680 with Denver, they'll win the tiebreaker, but Kansas City's defensive 484 00:27:52,799 --> 00:27:56,880 front should be able to do some damage Ski. The 485 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,400 Eagles didn't have Jalen Carter Monday night, and it seemed 486 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,640 to me Justin Herbert with that bad left hand, was 487 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,319 running for his life the whole game. I think he 488 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,920 had like ten or eleven carries. Every time he dropped back, 489 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,119 he was under siege. So I think Case's going to 490 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:15,200 get to the quarterback here. Chargers will have to run. 491 00:28:15,279 --> 00:28:17,880 They didn't do a great job of it against the Eagles. 492 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,799 Five field goals and the one in overtime that wins it. 493 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,759 But if you turn it the other way, just flip 494 00:28:25,799 --> 00:28:28,839 it over. I think you said it already. Kansas City's 495 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:30,920 offensive line can't protect my homes at all. 496 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:32,079 Speaker 3: In LA can come. 497 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 2: After U two. They came after Jalen Hurts, and that 498 00:28:34,799 --> 00:28:37,759 game that we watched Monday night, to me looks very 499 00:28:37,799 --> 00:28:39,559 similar to this one that we're going to see on 500 00:28:39,599 --> 00:28:43,559 Sunday after almost the same thing. Nobody can block, nobody 501 00:28:43,559 --> 00:28:45,799 can protect who's going to make the big play for 502 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:47,839 the Eagles. They got the fifty two yard run out 503 00:28:47,839 --> 00:28:51,720 of Saquan, but the Chargers fought it off on their 504 00:28:51,759 --> 00:28:55,680 home field. And it's going to be like thirteen degrees 505 00:28:55,720 --> 00:29:00,160 here in this game, which may affect the bad hand 506 00:29:00,079 --> 00:29:03,680 end of Herbert more than it would Mahomes, that quarterback. 507 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,960 I guess that's where I have to come down on 508 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,039 this game, is do I think that Patrick Mahomes can 509 00:29:09,119 --> 00:29:12,480 make more plays under pressure than justin Herbert can tough decision? 510 00:29:12,599 --> 00:29:19,880 But maybe I would lean Kansas City. But there's nothing 511 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,599 that they've done recently that suggests that they're going to 512 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,319 win a game like this, So we'll see how it goes. 513 00:29:25,519 --> 00:29:27,799 It's a difficult game to play, probably under what's the 514 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:28,920 total in this game. 515 00:29:28,759 --> 00:29:30,759 Speaker 1: By the way, forty one and a half that came 516 00:29:30,799 --> 00:29:32,279 down from forty four and a half. 517 00:29:33,039 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 2: It still seems high. Ski twenty four to seventeen, you 518 00:29:35,759 --> 00:29:38,440 still win if you're betting on under. It for one 519 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,559 of these teams to get to twenty four might be 520 00:29:41,599 --> 00:29:45,079 a miracle. What do we see Monday night? It was 521 00:29:45,079 --> 00:29:49,240 twenty two to nineteen? Is that right? Forty one got 522 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,319 all kinds of field goals in that game. I think 523 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,440 under might be the best play here, tell you the truth. 524 00:29:53,519 --> 00:29:56,839 People have gotten to it and made the number a 525 00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,799 little bit less valuable. But a lot of games land 526 00:30:00,839 --> 00:30:01,599 on forty one. 527 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: Man, I don't know, all right, kind of we kind 528 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:09,440 of agree on that game. Detroit and the Rams just 529 00:30:09,839 --> 00:30:11,640 Rams open four and a half and is up to 530 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,960 six total, up from fifteen and a half to fifty five. 531 00:30:17,119 --> 00:30:17,599 Speaker 2: I just. 532 00:30:21,759 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: I just think the Rams are better. I just think 533 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,240 the Rams are better. That's just it is what it is. 534 00:30:27,279 --> 00:30:30,640 And the Rams can do whatever they want with a 535 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,119 banged up Detroit team. I feel like, just like almost 536 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,519 like Kansas City, maybe not as extreme, but Detroit just 537 00:30:37,519 --> 00:30:42,920 two banged up and Rams have too many weapons. It's 538 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,519 Rams are nothing for me in that one. How do 539 00:30:45,519 --> 00:30:47,079 you feel, well? 540 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 2: I mean, Detroit and they're banged up in bad places 541 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,920 banged up where they're you know, their strength lives in 542 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,599 the offensive line that's banged up, and they're banged up 543 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,720 in the secondary, and you just don't want to play 544 00:31:00,079 --> 00:31:05,480 Kua and Devonte Adams and Stafford in that passing game 545 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,920 right now. Detroit the past couple of weeks, they can't 546 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,519 stop anybody, and I don't know how they're going to 547 00:31:11,559 --> 00:31:15,240 stop the Rams. The question is can Detroit score with them? 548 00:31:15,759 --> 00:31:19,480 And you know, the Rams pass rush is so good 549 00:31:19,559 --> 00:31:22,079 Ski that front seven is so good that there's gonna be, 550 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,400 in my estimation, at least at least two to three 551 00:31:26,519 --> 00:31:30,119 more possessions where the Rams stop Detroit and Detroit can't 552 00:31:30,119 --> 00:31:33,839 stop the Rams. And so when you start adding stuff 553 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,000 up like that, you say two to three possessions, what 554 00:31:36,079 --> 00:31:38,640 does that worth? It's probably worth seven points. We're only 555 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:42,319 laying six six and a half, so I would be 556 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,960 on Rams. I think Rams total is probably good. I 557 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:50,119 don't see Detroit holding anybody under thirty in their current state. 558 00:31:51,559 --> 00:31:53,240 So there's a couple of ways that I'll be looking 559 00:31:53,279 --> 00:31:55,880 at that. But certainly the Rams look like a good 560 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,079 side of team that needs to win. They're both desperate 561 00:31:59,079 --> 00:32:03,839 and boyd Detroit rich Scott weaponry. But I don't know. 562 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,319 People have bet this thing to fifty five for a reason. Obviously, 563 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,599 I'm going to see a lot of points here, probably rams, 564 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,359 maybe a little ramped team total. 565 00:32:14,559 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: All right, you know, maybe this will be the last 566 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:23,000 one here Buffalo and New England. I feel like Buffalo 567 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,279 definitely needs wins. I mean, I think buff actually, no, 568 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:30,599 Buffalo can still win the division, right They need to 569 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,839 win this game though, So it's a huge game. The 570 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:40,079 question is our question for me at least is as 571 00:32:40,119 --> 00:32:42,440 a New England. I mean, they did be Buffalo earlier 572 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,960 in the season, but I mean it's Buffalo even good. 573 00:32:46,079 --> 00:32:50,440 This year's Buffalo really is good. That's the question. I'm 574 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:55,039 not sure New England. Have they just been you know, 575 00:32:55,920 --> 00:33:01,079 benefits of an easy schedule. Absolutely, this is a tough game. 576 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,319 For that reason. I can understand why the total is 577 00:33:04,359 --> 00:33:09,920 going up a little bit there. I want to say, 578 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,240 I trust Josh Allen Moore and I trust Jake may 579 00:33:12,519 --> 00:33:17,559 Drake May so I'll lean right now. I guess Bills 580 00:33:18,119 --> 00:33:21,759 and Over this game is tough. Any thoughts from. 581 00:33:21,559 --> 00:33:25,839 Speaker 2: You, Yeah, situational, I think you would lean on Buffalo 582 00:33:26,839 --> 00:33:29,640 reasons you described it really I mean New England's three, 583 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,440 you know in a division, Like you say, if Buffalo 584 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,200 loses this game, there is no divisional hope. And if 585 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,519 I look really quick here at conference standings, they're six 586 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,960 right now. A loss probably kicks them out of playoff 587 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,160 the playoff race for at least a week. There's a 588 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:51,079 couple of eighty five's behind them. But you could argue 589 00:33:51,079 --> 00:33:53,480 the fact that Buffalo was lucky to win last week. 590 00:33:53,559 --> 00:33:57,160 Joe Burrow was absolutely dominant in the snow. I think 591 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,279 it was like twenty two for twenty six at one 592 00:33:59,319 --> 00:34:02,400 point against the defense. And if it isn't for a 593 00:34:02,519 --> 00:34:06,559 couple of freakish tipped passes that Buffalo picked off in 594 00:34:06,599 --> 00:34:10,039 the fourth quarter almost within like two minutes of each other, 595 00:34:10,079 --> 00:34:12,679 Buffalo doesn't even win that game thirty nine to thirty four. 596 00:34:12,679 --> 00:34:16,400 In the final, the one thing Buffalo can do, really, 597 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,559 really well is run the football. They might be one 598 00:34:18,599 --> 00:34:20,559 of the best running teams where they are one of 599 00:34:20,599 --> 00:34:23,760 the best running teams in the NFL. And I think 600 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,760 where New England's defense is concerned, been more worried about 601 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:32,159 their past defense this season in their run defense, So 602 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:36,519 Buffalo into a New England strength. I think The point here, Ski, 603 00:34:36,639 --> 00:34:41,800 is that situationally it all adds up for Buffalo. Fundamentally 604 00:34:42,039 --> 00:34:44,760 it kind of leans towards New England and they're the 605 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:49,719 home team here, makes it real tough. I don't know. 606 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,960 I wouldn't talk to anybody off either side, but I 607 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:53,079 don't think I'll play. 608 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 1: All right. You know, I think we did a pretty 609 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,880 good job here. Unless there's anything else you would like 610 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,400 to talk about in the NFL enough full movie right along? 611 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what. I'll say this guys over at 612 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,079 wager talk dot com and we're off with win last night, 613 00:35:11,119 --> 00:35:13,159 but I do have another big play up and available there. 614 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,679 We won't talk about it here, but have been running 615 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,199 really really good in NFL. This is kind of promo 616 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,800 on top of everything else. Sorry about that the bad 617 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,679 out of line here, out of order, but go ahead 618 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:26,199 and pick that up at wager talk dot com. I 619 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:32,000 don't see another game here, Ski that really. I'll say this. 620 00:35:32,679 --> 00:35:35,920 I'll say this real quick for those watching the Minnesota 621 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,920 Dallas game on Sunday night. To me, now that CDE 622 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,920 Lamb has been cleared is a I don't know. I 623 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:44,639 don't know if I should use this phrase, but I'll 624 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,159 use it anyway looks to me like a dead nuts 625 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:51,119 over forty seven and a half in a Dallas game 626 00:35:51,159 --> 00:35:53,239 when Dallas is at home, the way they score at home, 627 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,440 and Steeddee Lamb's gonna play and JJ McCarthy and company 628 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,920 looked a little bit more settled in offensively last week. 629 00:36:00,119 --> 00:36:03,519 So to me, I would say very quickly that the 630 00:36:03,559 --> 00:36:05,760 Minnesota Dallas is a game that appeals to me, that 631 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,599 can going over forty seven and a half. 632 00:36:08,639 --> 00:36:12,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd probably just I'm knowing, you know, the Cowboys 633 00:36:12,039 --> 00:36:14,280 this year, I'll just not that they can't go over, 634 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:15,960 but I would just chopping in half and do the 635 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:20,159 first half. But good stuff for Ravino. Before we go 636 00:36:20,199 --> 00:36:21,920 to best bets, Let's go ahead and put some of 637 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,000 that stuff we usually do put up here, and we'll 638 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,559 start with Weekend Warrior.

You know what, Ski, I didn't really I 656 00:37:18,079 --> 00:37:21,519 don't think I let anybody in any type of good 657 00:37:21,559 --> 00:37:24,280 direction in the NBA today. So what I'll do is 658 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,760 I'll leave you a best bet on a college basketball 659 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,360 game that I played tonight.

I 662 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,599 won't quit the firm detail here, but they are a 663 00:37:36,639 --> 00:37:39,920 team under Richard Patino that's been better and better and 664 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:41,920 better as the games go by. Their team total is 665 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,119 eighty three and a half tonight. That game I haven't 666 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,119 played already it is a client selection over eighty three 667 00:37:48,199 --> 00:37:49,639 and a half. So I'll leave you that as a 668 00:37:49,639 --> 00:37:52,719 best bet here Today's Xavier out of College Hoop for 669 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:56,159 those who do play their team total eighty three and 670 00:37:56,159 --> 00:37:58,400 a half up and over tonight in that game. 671 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:04,079 Speaker 1: All right, good stuff for Ravino and for myself. I 672 00:38:04,079 --> 00:38:06,480 will go ahead and go with you know, talk it 673 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,400 out here on the show, opening up my wallet. We're 674 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,400 gonna go with the Nets plus the eight points. Just 675 00:38:11,519 --> 00:38:14,599 Dallas just not a believer and then being a favorite, 676 00:38:14,679 --> 00:38:18,519 especially this big They've covered zero out of five games 677 00:38:18,519 --> 00:38:20,679 as a home favorite so far this year. I understand 678 00:38:20,679 --> 00:38:23,360 they've been playing a little bit better, but you know, 679 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,840 a combination of that and you know, I mentioned in 680 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,360 the comments from them hard about we're trying to get 681 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:34,039 Anthony Davis wall too much. I just don't don't think 682 00:38:34,039 --> 00:38:37,360 everything is quite where they needed to be chemistry wise 683 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,599 right there yet. So I like the Nets plus all 684 00:38:40,639 --> 00:38:43,360 those points. I think they can keep this one respectable 685 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,199 as my best bet for the show.
