1
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,639
Speaker 1: What's up? Everybody. Welcome into another episode of Profit Picks.

2
00:00:06,799 --> 00:00:09,119
If you are new, we do always start the show

3
00:00:09,199 --> 00:00:14,599
by being transparent. We didn't do any shows over the weekend. Man,

4
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,079
this is the one day where I'm just not record keeping.

5
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:19,440
I'm not gonna lie to you guys. I had a

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,320
lot of fun yesterday. I enjoyed myself and I'm dragging

7
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,559
a little bit today, so I'm gonna be capping the

8
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,800
card with you guys, and yeah, we'll just go through

9
00:00:28,839 --> 00:00:30,719
it like that. So I'm not I'm not gonna go

10
00:00:30,879 --> 00:00:33,560
over the weekend and stuff. But you know, it is

11
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,600
good to be back with you. How are you feeling.

12
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,079
Speaker 2: I'm good today, See Ski, the weekend was good. Almost

13
00:00:40,079 --> 00:00:42,119
said Seahawks before I said Ski. I did have the

14
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,439
Seahawks yesterday pretty big, So it was a good day.

15
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,280
And hey, I looked this morning and I found my

16
00:00:48,359 --> 00:00:50,840
way to the top three of all three wager Talk

17
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,560
categories three day, seven day, thirty days. So things are

18
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,560
going well all around here. So we'll see if we can't.

19
00:00:57,799 --> 00:01:01,240
I like you, am a little backed up today. I

20
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,079
mean I have to get up and get that college

21
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,280
show with Trigg this morning, and now get onto the NBA,

22
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:10,599
So we might be sharing thoughts together on the fly

23
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,760
here where the NBA is concerned. I have not made

24
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,400
a play yet, but maybe we can talk each other

25
00:01:16,439 --> 00:01:16,840
into one.

26
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, we did well opening up our wallet

27
00:01:20,599 --> 00:01:22,280
on the show last time. To see what we can

28
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:27,680
get to today. All right, we'll start with Pistons and

29
00:01:28,159 --> 00:01:32,280
Hornets opened up minus two. Still our guests two and

30
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,280
a half totals around the opener during its probable Hollerand

31
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,920
and Smith are out, mcneally's out, Kobe White's out for

32
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,079
the Hornets. Pistons looks like they do have a couple

33
00:01:43,159 --> 00:01:47,239
days rest before this game. The Hornets in the revenge

34
00:01:47,239 --> 00:01:51,400
spot Hornets, I mean they've just been playing good basketball.

35
00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:55,959
Not that Detroit hasn't, but I mean Hornets have been

36
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,599
the hottest team since since January started, right, so it

37
00:02:00,719 --> 00:02:04,079
has been hard to go against them. What do you

38
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,680
think in Pistons and Hornets here?

39
00:02:05,799 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, I think it's two teams that you

40
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,439
really want to bet on, but they happen to be

41
00:02:11,479 --> 00:02:15,000
playing each other. Charlotte six and three, Ats last nine

42
00:02:15,039 --> 00:02:16,759
to nine, and oh straight up, when's the last time

43
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,840
the Hornets had a nine game win? Streak. It's crazy,

44
00:02:19,879 --> 00:02:21,800
but they are playing so well right now. I know

45
00:02:21,879 --> 00:02:25,159
we talked about their defensive numbers, where we did a

46
00:02:25,159 --> 00:02:29,319
lot last week. The defense has really increased as we

47
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,479
speak last ten games. Hornets are the second best defensive

48
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,199
raiding team in the league, Detroit's number five and Detroit's

49
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,159
number two offensive raiding over that span. So it's hard

50
00:02:39,199 --> 00:02:42,400
to knock the Pistons at this point in time. Like

51
00:02:42,439 --> 00:02:43,919
I say, it's a game where you probably want to

52
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,319
play each side. Detroit still sitting on the number one

53
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,520
seed in the East, five games ahead of the Knicks.

54
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,879
Important to them. Charlotte tried to climb into the real playoffs.

55
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,199
They're only shoot five and a half games out of

56
00:02:57,199 --> 00:03:00,199
that spot now, So the Hornet's making a pretty good

57
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,639
run here. For Detroit, they do have the two days rescue,

58
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,039
but it's the first of a four game road trip,

59
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,479
And you know how I like to think. I always

60
00:03:09,479 --> 00:03:11,680
think that when you go on these extended road trips

61
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,039
that the first game is the most important, you're the

62
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,199
most have the most energy for Detroit. Probably will bring

63
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,000
that tonight. The earlier meeting you talked about happened on

64
00:03:21,039 --> 00:03:24,680
December the twentieth, when Charlotte really wasn't the same team

65
00:03:24,759 --> 00:03:27,360
that they are now, So I kind of discounted that.

66
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,719
I think you know where the number sits right now.

67
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,800
If somebody pressed me the proverbial gun to head, which

68
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,240
way would you go? I still think I preferred Detroit

69
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:40,280
as good as Charlotte's playing. Detroit's just that good all

70
00:03:40,319 --> 00:03:43,199
around at this point in time. But it's it's not

71
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,400
a game I played. And you might want to check

72
00:03:45,479 --> 00:03:48,199
under just because to twenty three and a half, with

73
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,000
the way these two are playing defenses looks like a

74
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:50,560
big number.

75
00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:56,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can definitely understand that shout out to Mark

76
00:03:56,439 --> 00:03:58,080
and a chat he likes Detroit and the under in

77
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,919
this game, Yeah I could. I can understand those those angles,

78
00:04:03,439 --> 00:04:05,280
bulls and nets. This is not a game I want

79
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:06,960
to spend a whole lot of time on. It opened

80
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,520
two and a half, went to four for Chicago. Total

81
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,439
came down from two twenty five and a half as

82
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:13,800
long as to eighteen and a half. And you don't

83
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,959
have I'm sorry. Giddea is doubtful, Jones is doubtful. Meant

84
00:04:17,959 --> 00:04:21,519
this questionable. Collins out for this Bulls team, Igor and

85
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,160
MPJ both out for his next team nets, you know,

86
00:04:25,199 --> 00:04:29,319
I know they did finally respond, all right, they after

87
00:04:29,399 --> 00:04:32,399
getting beat down a couple times in a row. I

88
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:35,639
forget they took it out on but they blew somebody

89
00:04:35,639 --> 00:04:39,519
out the other day. Can they keep that going here

90
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:40,519
without MPJ?

91
00:04:42,399 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 2: Yeah? No. And I was saying to you affair before

92
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,639
we came on, how are they going to score? Because

93
00:04:46,639 --> 00:04:49,639
they traded Cam Thomas out of there. Now mpj's got

94
00:04:49,639 --> 00:04:52,839
the knee issue, they're gonna sit him and those are

95
00:04:52,879 --> 00:04:55,360
like you have to have one of those in the lineup.

96
00:04:55,399 --> 00:04:57,519
I know Cam Thomas spent a lot of time just

97
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:02,680
watching from the bench since December, but now that he's gone,

98
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,720
just don't know which way they look here for Brooklyn.

99
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,720
That being said, I think you said it Friday, and

100
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,040
I'm with you. You kind of don't get what the Bulls

101
00:05:13,079 --> 00:05:16,920
are doing right A fifteen man roster with like eleven guards,

102
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,279
and what do we do? And they're all new into

103
00:05:21,319 --> 00:05:23,959
the system. I mean, the two guys they're starting right now,

104
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,879
Simon's an IVY brand new to the system, and they're

105
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:32,399
so undersized and Jalen Smith that center. You don't really

106
00:05:32,399 --> 00:05:34,920
want either one of these Team Ski the Bulls do

107
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:40,160
have far more scoring options at this point than Brooklyn doesn't.

108
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,360
I don't know that Brooklyn's good enough defensively. The line

109
00:05:43,399 --> 00:05:45,000
climbed up to four and a half. I don't know.

110
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,480
I won't play, but it's hard to make a case

111
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:48,439
for Brooklyn right now.

112
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I do think, like Casey said, the

113
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,199
Bulls players on that side are much better than what

114
00:05:58,199 --> 00:06:01,759
we're looking at further that side. So maybe just slidest

115
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,560
lean too the Bulls in this game, but not there

116
00:06:04,639 --> 00:06:09,120
right now. Jazz and heat ooh Man opened up two

117
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,399
forty four and a half down to two down as

118
00:06:11,399 --> 00:06:13,920
low as two thirty nine and a half, so some

119
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,839
disagreement without how that total was. The spread also coming

120
00:06:16,879 --> 00:06:22,040
down from Miami minus nine to seeing six and a

121
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,040
half's popping up right now. A lot of stuff moving

122
00:06:24,079 --> 00:06:26,360
on the screen, actually seven seven and a half, six

123
00:06:26,439 --> 00:06:28,959
and a half. So maybe we're getting some news right now.

124
00:06:29,079 --> 00:06:30,759
Let me just glance. I usually get it here on

125
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:36,040
my phone. I bet I think didn't open for some reason,

126
00:06:36,959 --> 00:06:38,000
but I'm pretty sure.

127
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 2: No.

128
00:06:40,199 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 1: Charon Johnson downgraded. No, no, no, that's nothing there, so okay,

129
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,839
Canante George is out arkless out Kevin Love out at

130
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:52,399
a Bio is probable, Normal, Palace questionable, Larson is doubtful,

131
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:59,639
Hero is out. Oh yeah, this is I don't like

132
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,839
when when Powell is questionable. Honestly, for this Heat team,

133
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,600
it could be anybody else, but Powell out makes me

134
00:07:06,639 --> 00:07:09,439
think like they should not already be laying as many points.

135
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,319
Can we really trust them to score that much? To No,

136
00:07:12,439 --> 00:07:16,160
Utah's defense is not great, but what good is Miami's

137
00:07:16,199 --> 00:07:18,480
offense is gonna be without Power out there. If he

138
00:07:18,519 --> 00:07:21,360
does miss, I would probably need him. Man if he does,

139
00:07:21,399 --> 00:07:26,240
if he is in, maybe I can't. I mean, I

140
00:07:26,279 --> 00:07:29,079
can't get to over without Kiante George. This game is tough.

141
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,040
No cante George on me on that Utah side. I

142
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:33,519
know that. What do you think you know?

143
00:07:35,439 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 2: Yeah? Are we done letting the people know that? Terry

144
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:38,600
Rozier's out?

145
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:40,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm done. I'm good.

146
00:07:42,759 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 2: We're done, Terry Rose. Yeah, this is This is kind

147
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,720
of crazy because you tossed four and oh against the

148
00:07:49,759 --> 00:07:52,240
spread on this road trip. It's a fifth game, but

149
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,360
they've covered every single game on this road trip, which

150
00:07:54,399 --> 00:07:56,519
is pretty wild. I get what you're saying about George

151
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,319
not being available. They did go with a spay in

152
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,199
that spot last game Bailey and Colliers. So it's a

153
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,959
big team. When you have Bailey, marketing, Jackson and Nurkics,

154
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,959
that's a big team. Certainly. Still, the ability to score

155
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,800
sens the ball off the bench, et cetera. Miami is

156
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,759
on you know, they're on the rest disadvantage here. Utah

157
00:08:17,839 --> 00:08:21,279
didn't play yesterday. Miami's in back to backs. Like I say,

158
00:08:21,399 --> 00:08:24,079
Utah is looking for a perfect five and oats on

159
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:25,879
the roads. But I think you'll get the effort out

160
00:08:25,879 --> 00:08:29,800
of them. And to your point, while Miami's a really

161
00:08:29,839 --> 00:08:32,320
good scoring team at most times, I don't like them

162
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,039
without Powell. And I don't know how you lay this

163
00:08:35,159 --> 00:08:39,919
number against or with Miami with the way that they

164
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,200
played defense. Now I know, I think it was the

165
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,639
other night. It was the other night when you said

166
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,480
that the Heat would focus more on three point defense

167
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,600
because they had given up like twenty something three, and

168
00:08:52,639 --> 00:08:59,679
they did. It was yeah, yeah, that was an easy collect.

169
00:08:59,759 --> 00:09:01,639
It was bad for me because I thought the game

170
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,159
was going to get over to sixteen. It never came close,

171
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,679
didn't even hit two hundred. But they did focus on

172
00:09:06,759 --> 00:09:11,399
defense that day, especially around the perimeter. I don't know.

173
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,639
I just I think I would have it ever slightly,

174
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:19,000
ever slight so lean to the Utah side, just because

175
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,360
they've been so good on this road trip. And it's

176
00:09:21,399 --> 00:09:25,679
kind of like that trade for Jared Jackson Junior's signal,

177
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,240
like they want to play the season out pretty hard,

178
00:09:29,279 --> 00:09:31,879
like they're not quitting here on us. So and maybe

179
00:09:31,879 --> 00:09:34,720
a little lean towards Utah in this game, especially if

180
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,600
Norman Pole doesn't play. That's a big deal.

181
00:09:38,279 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was nothing that happened the other day. You know,

182
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,559
it's been, it's been. I saw I think I saw

183
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,679
Mark the other day too, and you know, we had

184
00:09:44,759 --> 00:09:47,039
tequila that day. I've had a lot of tequila pineapples

185
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,639
in between then and now exactly what day it was.

186
00:09:51,279 --> 00:09:55,720
But the Jazz did do something crazy, like like you

187
00:09:55,759 --> 00:09:57,440
could tell they weren't trying to win the game, like

188
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,320
they were tanking, you know. And I see people worried

189
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,159
about it in the chat. That's why they're thinking, if

190
00:10:03,159 --> 00:10:05,399
you like the Jazz, you take them early, like over

191
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,759
Eat saying, possibly take it early because they could sit

192
00:10:08,879 --> 00:10:12,200
their main guys toward the end of the game. And

193
00:10:12,279 --> 00:10:16,120
to Joey, appreciate you sharing the show. He's asking if

194
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,279
their lack of effort for some teams fading out before

195
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,240
the break, I would say, yes, I think it's just

196
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,240
human nature. I mean, everybody just had Super Bowl party

197
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,519
as well. They know that. You know, you get a

198
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,840
week off for most players in about three couple days.

199
00:10:30,919 --> 00:10:35,360
You know, I think it's human nature. Anything else being

200
00:10:35,399 --> 00:10:36,240
up before we keep going?

201
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, just done that quick comments Ski. It's generally why

202
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,679
I'll play a lot of overs in the two three

203
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,919
games leading up to All Star Break because defense just

204
00:10:45,919 --> 00:10:48,000
seems to go out the window. Everybody's head is somewhere

205
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,600
else other than playing defense these last you know, these

206
00:10:50,639 --> 00:10:51,519
next few days this.

207
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: Week, all right, Bucks and Magic. You know I looked

208
00:10:56,639 --> 00:10:59,519
at this last night and I didn't, you know, I

209
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,840
was being responsible because I felt like, and again I didn't.

210
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,399
I'm capping these games as we're going today. But when

211
00:11:05,399 --> 00:11:08,519
I just glanced at this game, I felt like the

212
00:11:08,639 --> 00:11:11,120
Magic should probably just smoke them. Here in this spot,

213
00:11:11,919 --> 00:11:14,600
there's no or. I'm sorry. Cam Thomas is questionable. We're

214
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,080
not sure if he's going to be out there tonight. No,

215
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:21,200
Johanna is no Prince pretty healthy, just Castleton out for

216
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,480
this Magic team. Man, where we talking the other day

217
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,200
about how many times the Magic had been this big

218
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:32,120
of a favorite. It doesn't happen very often. That game

219
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,799
they beat the hell out of who was It was

220
00:11:34,879 --> 00:11:36,759
the Nets, and they beat the hell out of them

221
00:11:36,799 --> 00:11:40,440
in that game. I don't know. The first thing that

222
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,159
pops in my head, you know, is this line is

223
00:11:43,159 --> 00:11:45,360
big for a reason, and it looks like I'm sorry,

224
00:11:45,399 --> 00:11:47,320
I don't have the openers. I didn't mention them, but

225
00:11:47,399 --> 00:11:50,679
it did go up. The opener was nine and a

226
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,440
half and we're looking at ten and a half eleven.

227
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,720
Now do you agree with the line movie though, or

228
00:11:55,759 --> 00:11:57,519
are you looking at this one from a different direction?

229
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: Well, at first I looked at it from a different

230
00:12:00,159 --> 00:12:03,720
direction just because the Bucks have won three straight three

231
00:12:03,799 --> 00:12:05,440
and oh straight up three and oh against the spread.

232
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,480
But then you analyze who they beat ski and it

233
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,120
was the Bulls during the trade deadline where they had

234
00:12:11,159 --> 00:12:14,159
like I think seven or eight guys that night, the

235
00:12:15,039 --> 00:12:19,120
Pelicans it was in overtime one thirty seven, but it

236
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,559
was the second of back to back, which showed a

237
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,080
little resiliency out of New Orleans, and then the Pacers.

238
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,600
So you can't put a lot of stock into beating

239
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,279
the Bulls, the Pelicans, and the Pacers. Now you play

240
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,440
Orlando and it's a it's a back to back. They're

241
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,399
going to play them again a couple of days from

242
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,360
now in the same building. So I might just watch

243
00:12:39,399 --> 00:12:41,679
and react to the second game, to the game a

244
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,279
couple days from now. See what happens tonight, See if

245
00:12:44,279 --> 00:12:47,679
this little Bucks Mini three and oh run is real

246
00:12:47,879 --> 00:12:52,440
or if it's just a product of bad opposition. But Orlando,

247
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,279
you know, I can't figure them out, honest to God.

248
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,519
When I think they're turning a corner, they throw a

249
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,559
clunker or two in there. It's been a very sporadic team,

250
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,639
So I get the situation that you're talking about. When

251
00:13:05,759 --> 00:13:08,360
Orlando's this big of a favorite, they usually do the

252
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,639
right thing and destroy the team. And that could very

253
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,480
well happen today. It gets Milwaukee, I think I want

254
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:13,240
to wait and see them.

255
00:13:15,879 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 1: Right, let's keep going down the list. I mean, next

256
00:13:20,519 --> 00:13:25,559
up is Kings and Pelicans, And yeah, I'm absolutely not

257
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,000
betting the Kings. I'm not. It's not very many situations

258
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,960
you're gonna find me betting the Kings in the near future.

259
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,519
You know, maybe they'll get together after all, star break.

260
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,200
But like I think we talked about it. You know,

261
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,120
nobody wants to be there. They're just holding them hostage.

262
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,840
I don't I don't want my money on that team.

263
00:13:42,039 --> 00:13:45,840
Pelicans healthy at the house. I think they're you know,

264
00:13:46,159 --> 00:13:47,639
I mean line up in five and a half up

265
00:13:47,639 --> 00:13:50,559
to eight. I think it's moving in the right direction. True.

266
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a big move. And it kind of speaks

267
00:13:54,279 --> 00:13:57,080
to what you just said about the Kings. When New

268
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,639
Orleans gets this kind of money, people viewing it the

269
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:04,000
same exact way. It's hard, right, your gut reaction is

270
00:14:04,039 --> 00:14:07,879
never to late eight with the Pelicans. But when you

271
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,519
consider the other side, is it easy to fade Sacramento

272
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,720
plus eight and probably yes, Like you say, when you

273
00:14:14,759 --> 00:14:18,240
got a team full of unhappy guys, it can be.

274
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,200
When I look at the Kings, I just look at

275
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:25,639
totals mostly and wanting to play over in some capacity.

276
00:14:25,879 --> 00:14:29,799
The Pelicans team total is not that high considering how

277
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,440
bad Sacramento is defensively one nineteen and a half. I

278
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,480
could get there with that, but I probably won't play ski.

279
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,639
It's hard for me to get to New Orleans minus

280
00:14:40,679 --> 00:14:42,159
eight eight and a half, even though it should be

281
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:43,919
the right side. I think you can get seven and

282
00:14:43,919 --> 00:14:46,480
a half's out there too, now that I look still.

283
00:14:46,279 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: Available, Yeah, I would leave this game alone. This is

284
00:14:52,159 --> 00:14:55,840
probably more of a a prop game or something like that,

285
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,840
if anything. But I'm still behind and I get to

286
00:14:58,879 --> 00:15:01,679
props today. Might have to just skip the props and

287
00:15:02,159 --> 00:15:06,159
figure that went out later. Hawks and Timberwolves opened up

288
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,320
minus six seven and a half or eight now to

289
00:15:09,559 --> 00:15:11,799
open two thirty five and a half. It's high as

290
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:19,559
two thirty seven and a half and you have Dyson

291
00:15:19,639 --> 00:15:23,679
Daniels and Jalen Johnson h questionable. I was wondering why

292
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,639
this line was moving, and this was another one. Like

293
00:15:26,679 --> 00:15:28,799
I said, I glanced at this one when I was

294
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,759
still loud and about her, you know, doing what I

295
00:15:30,799 --> 00:15:33,399
was doing, having a good time, and I was like, hmm,

296
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,840
this is another line I'm gonna look at in the morning.

297
00:15:37,519 --> 00:15:41,360
The Timberwolves only person they're missing is Terrence Shannon Jr. Now,

298
00:15:41,519 --> 00:15:47,360
you know, I don't like Jalen Johnson being questionable at all.

299
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,600
You know, I think that's somebody that they can't really

300
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:55,559
afford to miss if he plays. I mean, how do

301
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,159
I just take the box. But this is kind of

302
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,240
feeling like it's telling me he's not gonna be out there.

303
00:16:00,519 --> 00:16:04,519
I mean, I see, I feel like everybody's been in

304
00:16:04,519 --> 00:16:07,919
the Hawks and you know he's a listed questionable line

305
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,679
goes the other way. I don't know, It's just I

306
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,559
don't know, you know, I got that gut feeling for

307
00:16:13,679 --> 00:16:16,799
some of these things sometimes, you know, and it's not

308
00:16:16,879 --> 00:16:19,919
seeming like it's seeming too easy to me. Now with

309
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,200
that said, I'm not betting the Timberwolves. The Timberwolves still

310
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,559
in my mind, they're not a team that deserves to

311
00:16:25,679 --> 00:16:27,679
lay until they can show me they can, you know,

312
00:16:28,559 --> 00:16:33,000
play consistently. So those Hawks are passed. I told you

313
00:16:33,039 --> 00:16:34,080
the reason why I passed.

314
00:16:35,159 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 2: What do you think, Yeah, I wanted to get the

315
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,360
Hawks right away. It's the Timberwolves on back to backs

316
00:16:40,399 --> 00:16:43,240
and they got destroyed by the Clippers yesterday's ski And

317
00:16:44,159 --> 00:16:48,720
part of the problem for Minnesota is they just traded

318
00:16:48,759 --> 00:16:51,759
for Iodisumu, which is a good move because they have

319
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,039
no point guard. Like yesterday. Knas Read led the team

320
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,279
and assist with three the Chimberwolves in that game Agets.

321
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,360
The Clippers gave up twenty five points off of turnovers.

322
00:17:02,399 --> 00:17:04,880
They can't handle the ball, twenty one turnovers, twenty five

323
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,920
points off of them, get whacked one fifteen ninety six.

324
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,359
To your point about Jalen Johnson, I would you know,

325
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,559
if there's two guys you would pick not to be

326
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,079
minus for Atlanta, the other guy would be Dyson Daniels,

327
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,680
especially in the situation like this where Dyson Daniels is

328
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,839
your best defender and Minnesota is having trouble at the

329
00:17:25,839 --> 00:17:28,319
point guard position. Right now, We'll see how many minutes

330
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,000
this soon move gets. He got twenty five and a

331
00:17:31,039 --> 00:17:34,559
half yesterday. I get you know, it's out of necessity

332
00:17:34,599 --> 00:17:37,359
because they've read Evincenzo is not a true point guard,

333
00:17:38,839 --> 00:17:41,720
so Minnesota's got issues there. I would really like to

334
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,039
get to Atlanta, but I think I am with your

335
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,680
sentiment that without knowing about Johnson, and then for me,

336
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,680
Daniels in this matchup in particular equally is important because

337
00:17:53,039 --> 00:17:55,279
I feel like he could have four to six steals

338
00:17:55,279 --> 00:17:58,680
in this game if he played against this team. So

339
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,839
I don't no Minnesota back to back tough. I would

340
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:05,440
like to be on Atlanta, but we'll wait for the

341
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,279
injury report to come in and then maybe we can

342
00:18:08,319 --> 00:18:09,440
make a decision.

343
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,759
Speaker 1: Then yeah, I think that's the best way to approach

344
00:18:13,799 --> 00:18:20,319
this one. I do man dying over here. If you

345
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:25,440
know Calves and Nuggets, we're almost there. Minus one flipped

346
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:30,319
to minus one, Calves flipped to minus one. Denver open

347
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,039
two thirty two and a half all the way up

348
00:18:33,079 --> 00:18:37,920
to two thirty nine and a half. Tyson Wade both questionable,

349
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,720
no mobile, no Strews for the Nuggets, bron and you'll

350
00:18:41,759 --> 00:18:48,200
get You're probable. Jamal Murray is questionable, Baits, Aaron Gordon, Spencer, Jones,

351
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,880
Peyton Watson look like they're all out, so Nuggets could

352
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:56,720
be missing quite a bit here. Calves pretty disappointed in

353
00:18:56,759 --> 00:18:58,599
that last game. I know it's the first game without

354
00:18:58,759 --> 00:19:04,480
you know, James Harden. I wasn't impressed. I do agree

355
00:19:04,519 --> 00:19:09,000
with this total going up. I think that caz defense

356
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,319
is vulnerable right now and the Nuggets defense is always

357
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,559
not good. I would want these guys to be rolled

358
00:19:16,559 --> 00:19:18,359
in for the Denver side if I'm playing over and

359
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,599
I would hate getting the ass into the line. But

360
00:19:20,799 --> 00:19:24,559
it does seem like that was the correct play. I

361
00:19:24,559 --> 00:19:26,079
don't think I want to pick a side here. If

362
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,759
I was, I still don't trust the Cavaliers right now.

363
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:30,640
What do you think, you know.

364
00:19:32,279 --> 00:19:34,559
Speaker 2: Well, I'm gonna have to trust them tonight's ski because

365
00:19:34,559 --> 00:19:36,240
it's the only play on the board that I made.

366
00:19:36,279 --> 00:19:39,240
I played their team total over one nineteen and a

367
00:19:39,279 --> 00:19:40,920
half and a lot of the reason that you said.

368
00:19:41,079 --> 00:19:45,039
First of all, Denver just scores. But when I looked

369
00:19:45,039 --> 00:19:47,640
at that injury list this morning, I'm like, I can't

370
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,119
go ahead and play the Denver team total with this

371
00:19:50,319 --> 00:19:56,319
many guys either questionable or definitely out. And so I

372
00:19:56,319 --> 00:19:58,279
looked at the Cleveland side, and you know, second game

373
00:19:58,279 --> 00:20:00,599
with James Harden, they should be able to get to

374
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,400
one twenty against Denver. Everybody gets close to or at

375
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,720
one twenty against Denver, they just outscore you. So, in

376
00:20:07,759 --> 00:20:10,319
a game where the total reaction I think is correct,

377
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,799
just bet Denver. Find a way to bet a Denver

378
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,000
game some form of over and bet it. In my case,

379
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,079
that form of over was to take the Cavs offense

380
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,960
against their defense. I just isolate that particular matchup and

381
00:20:23,039 --> 00:20:27,319
think that Denver's missing too many parts to stop Cleveland

382
00:20:27,319 --> 00:20:28,400
from getting the one to twenty.

383
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do think that both teams should score. So

384
00:20:33,519 --> 00:20:35,279
I agree with you. I'm not against you on that

385
00:20:35,319 --> 00:20:38,160
team total I think that's ow it. Thunder and Lakers

386
00:20:38,839 --> 00:20:40,920
opened up minus four for the Thunder all the way

387
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,319
up to seven. Total went up from two nineteen and

388
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,400
a half to two twenty three and a half. Injury report,

389
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:52,119
you have eight improbable Luca out, the Oro out, Sga out,

390
00:20:52,519 --> 00:20:55,799
aj Mitchell out, Topic out. I mean he's a good

391
00:20:55,839 --> 00:21:00,240
amount of scoring for that Thunder team missing a star player. Still,

392
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:07,160
the line is going towards the Thunder hearing this one. Yeah,

393
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,279
the line is just screaming Thunder. It is I think

394
00:21:10,319 --> 00:21:11,880
the first game of a back to back for both

395
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:13,720
of these teams. Let me just see who they play tomorrow,

396
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,519
No mistaken, it's the front of a back to back

397
00:21:17,559 --> 00:21:20,920
for the Lakers. They play the Spurs tomorrow, not in

398
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,440
front of a back to back for this Thunder team.

399
00:21:23,759 --> 00:21:28,200
So Thunder coming off of a loss at the Rockets

400
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,039
one O six, one twelve, it is to transfer them

401
00:21:30,079 --> 00:21:33,559
to bounce back here the Lakers, they did lose to

402
00:21:33,599 --> 00:21:36,440
the Thunder already, they got blown out. Transferred them to

403
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,480
get revenge, but not gonna have Luca. I couldn't trust

404
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,480
the Lakers here, you know, even though they don't have

405
00:21:41,599 --> 00:21:44,960
Sga on the thunderside. I think that the thunders still

406
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:46,880
can play a lot better defense than the Lakers can,

407
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:54,880
and the Biggs, both Check and Hardenestein together could really

408
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,640
be the difference in this game, he thought from you here,

409
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,279
you know during Lakers.

410
00:22:00,519 --> 00:22:02,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can agree with all that. I will say

411
00:22:02,559 --> 00:22:06,519
that watching that Houston game the other day, I think

412
00:22:06,519 --> 00:22:11,039
it was Saturday, Oklahoma City is a different team when

413
00:22:11,079 --> 00:22:14,559
push comes to shove, Like that game was close in

414
00:22:14,599 --> 00:22:18,759
the fourth and Oka see needed scores because they were

415
00:22:18,759 --> 00:22:21,200
behind by either you know, anywhere between three and six.

416
00:22:21,279 --> 00:22:24,720
And when they don't have Sga on the floor or

417
00:22:25,039 --> 00:22:28,319
Jalen Williams on the floor, it's hard for them. It's

418
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,119
hard for them to find a true score. Now, the

419
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,400
question is would they be in that spot here against

420
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,480
the Lakers, because if they're front run and they're gonna

421
00:22:35,519 --> 00:22:38,480
be really good and they're gonna defend, Like you say,

422
00:22:38,559 --> 00:22:41,119
guys like Caruso were all over the floor in that

423
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,319
Houston game. They tried as hard as they could. They

424
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,079
just without Sga and without Jalen Williams are just not

425
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,720
as good at scoring as the Rockets were. But the

426
00:22:49,759 --> 00:22:51,440
twin Towers in the middle, and I know you have

427
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,519
a little bit of a low opinion on eight and

428
00:22:55,599 --> 00:22:58,240
lately they should be able to chew La up at

429
00:22:58,319 --> 00:23:00,640
the rim here, So I'm kind of with you here.

430
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,039
Oklahoma City probably does get to bounce back without Luca

431
00:23:05,279 --> 00:23:07,759
and the Austin Reeves came up with like thirty something

432
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,839
one night. But Austin Reeves is going to have to

433
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:10,240
do that.

434
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,319
Speaker 1: Every night now, Yeah, every night.

435
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,559
Speaker 2: That burden's on his shoulders, right, He's got to do

436
00:23:14,559 --> 00:23:14,960
it everything.

437
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 1: He just came back from injury.

438
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,839
Speaker 2: I don't know that he can do it consistently every day,

439
00:23:19,839 --> 00:23:20,680
so I would probably be out.

440
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:26,599
Speaker 1: Okay, see, okay, we're in agreement on that. Yeah, we're

441
00:23:26,599 --> 00:23:29,640
in agreement on that. Dylan. I appreciate you tapping in.

442
00:23:30,039 --> 00:23:32,079
Probably not the best time to just tap back in

443
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,160
today just because I said, you know, today is just

444
00:23:35,599 --> 00:23:37,400
a different kind of day for me. I was enjoying

445
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,640
myself a little too much over the weekend. But do

446
00:23:39,759 --> 00:23:45,200
appreciate you tapping in. And yeah, my Twitter is Ski profit,

447
00:23:46,039 --> 00:23:54,279
Ski profit, That is my Twitter, all right, last no, no, no,

448
00:23:54,799 --> 00:23:57,759
next game. Grizzlies and Warriors opened up minus seven and

449
00:23:57,799 --> 00:23:59,960
a half of the nine and a half or ten

450
00:24:00,839 --> 00:24:03,240
total open two twenty six and a half down as

451
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,960
well as two nineteen and a half. Definitely has to

452
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:10,400
be some injury stuff here for the Warriors. LJ. Cryer,

453
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,400
Steth and Steph Curry are out along with Porzingis. For

454
00:24:14,559 --> 00:24:19,880
the Grizzlies, No Jah, Edie Clark Aldama and then Walter

455
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:27,920
is that Walterer Clayton Junior. He's over there now he's questionable. Yeah,

456
00:24:28,079 --> 00:24:32,480
this I don't agree. Why is the Lion? I mean,

457
00:24:32,799 --> 00:24:37,119
maybe it's something I don't know here, Like why did

458
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,359
the Lion the skyrocket towards Golden State without Steph? Like?

459
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,680
Why do we love that? This Grizzlies team has been

460
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:48,079
playing good lately? Okay, so maybe this is why I'm

461
00:24:48,079 --> 00:24:51,079
looking at their schedule. They've been on the road for

462
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,839
a while. It's the Grizzlies third game in four nights.

463
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,839
Oh no, it's a fourth straight road game, third and

464
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:01,359
four nights, fourth and sixth to travel in a short

465
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,319
time span. Not the greatest of spots for the Grizzty.

466
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,720
So that's why his line is just high. That is

467
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,480
what I was looking for right there. Still, do we

468
00:25:10,519 --> 00:25:12,640
trust the Warriors to go out there and win?

469
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:12,799
Speaker 2: By?

470
00:25:12,799 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 1: I say, can we trust Steve Kerr to play, you know,

471
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,680
the right lineups for forty eight minutes. What do you

472
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:19,359
think here? Rob?

473
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 2: You know, I'm like in one of those spots when

474
00:25:22,519 --> 00:25:25,279
you're like, I don't want to talk about this game.

475
00:25:25,519 --> 00:25:28,000
I'm like in that spot, I got I have nothing

476
00:25:28,039 --> 00:25:32,079
to add to the conversation on this game side or total.

477
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,960
So I'm kind of we do a little bit in

478
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,519
the fact that why did it jump to points? Asking

479
00:25:38,559 --> 00:25:42,400
Golden State to cover that size number in current form

480
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,079
is not, I don't know, not the wisest thing to do,

481
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,240
but I just have nothing to add on that game.

482
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,200
Maybe Casey can talk us through this one Golden State.

483
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: Casey said, this is what she says. You know, Bro,

484
00:25:54,039 --> 00:25:55,799
ain't no way to Warriors. You'll be laying in any

485
00:25:55,799 --> 00:26:00,759
pointless there you go this line State, She says, no,

486
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:05,039
we cannot. She's not She's not a believer tonight.

487
00:26:05,079 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 2: That look like yeah.

488
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,279
Speaker 1: But she does remind us that the Spencer brothers face

489
00:26:09,319 --> 00:26:12,039
off could be something to look at proper wise in

490
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,119
this game, and Mark he likes to under looks like

491
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,519
you got a good number as well. This one continues

492
00:26:17,559 --> 00:26:19,319
to tick down, and I think it's going to continue

493
00:26:19,319 --> 00:26:23,319
to drop another point, so if you like it, still

494
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:27,000
might not have you know, gone to the rock bottom yet.

495
00:26:27,839 --> 00:26:31,400
Last game on the slate, seventy six Ers and Blazers

496
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,759
opened up minus two for Philly. We now have a

497
00:26:35,799 --> 00:26:38,920
minus three or three and a half total open two

498
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:44,079
thirty and a half and two twenty seven and a

499
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,720
half is the lowest that I see out there right now, Philly,

500
00:26:47,839 --> 00:26:53,200
you do have and be questionable. You got what is

501
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,200
his name? Now? You know I forgot what his name was?

502
00:26:57,279 --> 00:27:00,359
What is it O? Prescription P? Yeah, they're missing proscription P.

503
00:27:00,559 --> 00:27:07,720
Now he's out. The Blazers got scooped probable, Denny's questionable,

504
00:27:08,079 --> 00:27:12,000
Robert Williams is questionable, Keegan Murray, Sharp and Tybood are

505
00:27:12,039 --> 00:27:14,519
all out. Could be a lot missing for this Blazers team.

506
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,160
It looks like that's the reason why the Sixers are

507
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,119
favorites here. From my memory, the Sixers have been good

508
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:24,240
as road favorites as well. I'm going to pass it

509
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,519
to you while I just maybe double check that you know,

510
00:27:26,559 --> 00:27:27,200
what do you think here?

511
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm probably going to be back to the well here.

512
00:27:30,839 --> 00:27:32,640
I just like to the way the Sixers are playing

513
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,079
as of late on this road trip, and this closes

514
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,960
out the road trip. It's been a pretty successful one

515
00:27:39,519 --> 00:27:42,400
for them. Started with the Clippers, wound up in Phoenix

516
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,240
the other night, but they are three and one against

517
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,599
the spread during this during this road trip, their team

518
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,240
total two one and one. I think I got a

519
00:27:51,319 --> 00:27:53,720
two to oh to start the trip and then got

520
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,680
that push at one fifteen against the Lakers. Didn't play

521
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,839
it on Saturday against Phoenix, but I think I'm gonna

522
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,319
go back to the well here with team total over

523
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,960
just the way they're scoring, and they're scoring pretty easily

524
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,160
at this point, so I think Embiid's going to play.

525
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,759
They had a day off. He's always got that questionable

526
00:28:12,799 --> 00:28:15,759
next to his name. Anyway, Portland not the best defense

527
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,680
Donovan Klinging. This is if MB plays, it's a different

528
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,440
matchup for him. But I think he had twenty and

529
00:28:21,559 --> 00:28:25,200
seventeen again the other night. His points and rebounds have

530
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,240
been going crazy, especially when he can dominate. Don't know

531
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,319
if he can do so here against Joel Embiid and

532
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,079
company though, So for me, Ski, it's pretty cut and dry.

533
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,160
I'm going to play the sixers to get over one

534
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,599
fifteen and a half. Be it that one sixteen, Mark,

535
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,720
I just don't think Portland's defense is going to stop

536
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,440
that much. I think the pace will be there in

537
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:43,960
this game.

538
00:28:44,519 --> 00:28:48,119
Speaker 1: Well, the Sixers are ten and two to their team

539
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,720
total over and ats as road favorites so far this year,

540
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:55,920
so this is this is a role that they've had

541
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,960
a lot of success in. Pace wise, they didn't say

542
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,799
they've been playing so lately. Twenty fifth is what I

543
00:29:01,839 --> 00:29:05,240
have last five games Blazers though our top ten Blazers

544
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,240
also twenty fifth defensive rated team in that same span.

545
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:12,039
So yeah, they're allowing one hundred and twenty three point

546
00:29:12,079 --> 00:29:13,960
four points per game over the last five games. What

547
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:14,880
do you say you need tonight?

548
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 2: You know the numbers one fifteen and a half, so

549
00:29:18,039 --> 00:29:19,079
we need one sixteen.

550
00:29:20,119 --> 00:29:23,559
Speaker 1: And also, I'm looking here the Blazers all five of

551
00:29:23,599 --> 00:29:25,680
their last opponents have gone over to the team total,

552
00:29:25,759 --> 00:29:30,160
So I mean, that does seem seem to line up there, right?

553
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:34,920
I think that's that's a solid play, solid call. All right,

554
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,160
take a look at the chat, dude, be going back

555
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:39,680
to some of the other games she likes to over

556
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,480
in that Golden State game, Yeah, Ron says, no, Denny,

557
00:29:42,559 --> 00:29:46,839
no Sharp, No Blazers I'm with you on that Casey says,

558
00:29:46,839 --> 00:29:50,279
not only clinging rebounds, school assists. School did come back

559
00:29:50,319 --> 00:29:53,039
and was playing. Well, that's a good call out. Dropping

560
00:29:53,119 --> 00:29:56,039
dimes is with you, you know when the team total

561
00:29:56,359 --> 00:30:03,400
and Mark says, Philly your pass. All right, So we've

562
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,920
gotten through everything here today. You know, man, let's put

563
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:08,880
this up on the screen. I might actually get to

564
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:15,400
eat something. So ten days of all access for the

565
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:19,680
price of seven, so save sixty nine bucks. I think

566
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,000
this is a good way to you know, take advantage

567
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,200
and get involved or you know, a good amount of time.

568
00:30:25,599 --> 00:30:28,160
Vino has been hot. I've been hot. I know you

569
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:32,279
know you just said that. You know you're all over

570
00:30:32,319 --> 00:30:34,880
the leaderboards. Maybe you can give them a reminder if

571
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:36,920
there's anything else you would like to promote. Feel free

572
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,799
and you know, if you have a best bet, we'd

573
00:30:39,799 --> 00:30:44,480
love to hear it. If you don't, no worries, Yeah, promotions.

574
00:30:45,599 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 2: I think you covered it. SKI That ten day for

575
00:30:48,039 --> 00:30:51,319
the price of seven pass has been pretty popular the

576
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,039
last week or so. That's a good way to go.

577
00:30:53,119 --> 00:30:55,440
You get everything. Now that football is over, I guess

578
00:30:55,440 --> 00:31:00,759
you're talking about college basketball and NBA and certainly plenty

579
00:31:00,839 --> 00:31:05,559
of college basketball from my directions. So that's a solid

580
00:31:05,599 --> 00:31:08,559
package there. And I think ski as of this afternoon,

581
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,480
I think we're going to be allowed to post plays

582
00:31:12,519 --> 00:31:16,160
in other areas. Ill we can make that known tomorrow

583
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,680
when it's official. But what I'd like to make known

584
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,599
now is the best bet for me for today, it's

585
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,799
gonna be the Cavaliers team total over because the only

586
00:31:23,799 --> 00:31:26,279
one that I bet, I would leave everybody with the

587
00:31:26,279 --> 00:31:28,480
Philly team total over. But I haven't quite bet it yet.

588
00:31:28,519 --> 00:31:30,000
I'll do that as soon as we end the show here.

589
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,400
Cleveland's number is one nineteen and a half against a

590
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,759
Denver team that is, you know, half of it's probably

591
00:31:35,839 --> 00:31:38,519
gonna be rested, some of it, not some of it.

592
00:31:38,599 --> 00:31:41,480
But regardless of all of that, they just don't play

593
00:31:41,519 --> 00:31:43,960
real good defense. They're at a point where they just

594
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:48,640
outscore you in high scoring matchups. So for me, Cleveland's

595
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,440
got the capability to score points. I don't see why

596
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,319
they don't get to one twenty here. They've had a

597
00:31:53,319 --> 00:31:55,799
little bit of rest heading into this one, So give

598
00:31:55,799 --> 00:31:58,279
me the Cavs team total up and over one nineteen

599
00:31:58,319 --> 00:31:58,759
and a half.

600
00:32:00,279 --> 00:32:03,519
Speaker 1: All right, good stuff from Ravino. Yeah, all I will

601
00:32:03,559 --> 00:32:05,240
say is you know, I did the promo. That's that's

602
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,680
what I have for right now. We've been doing pretty

603
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,359
good basketball college back, I know college basketball. I won

604
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,680
nine in a row. In NBA, it has been solid too.

605
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,720
I did lose. I was so annoyed with it too.

606
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,400
I lost on Sunday. It was like my first losing

607
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,200
day in the NBA in a little bit. But I

608
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,279
had the first half under. In the next game, she

609
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:30,559
just played the full game, full game, almost easy like

610
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,799
that really irritating me. But yeah, things have been going well.

611
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,279
So if you want to be involved, you know where

612
00:32:35,319 --> 00:32:36,920
to do it. I don't have a best bet for

613
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:40,799
the show today. Like I told you guys, I enjoyed myself.

614
00:32:40,799 --> 00:32:43,640
You know, it was the Super Bowl yesterday. I like

615
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:45,440
to have fun and sometimes every now and then I

616
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,160
work hard, you know, I think I deserve to have

617
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,039
a little bit of fun. So I'm late working today.

618
00:32:49,559 --> 00:32:51,400
I can't give you guys a bet that I haven't placed.

619
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,559
So I'll see what I can do for you guys tomorrow.

620
00:32:54,599 --> 00:32:57,519
Maybe we'll have two or something like that. But Vino,

621
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,319
I do appreciate you taking the time to at these

622
00:33:00,359 --> 00:33:02,720
games with me helps my process. I'm sure it helps

623
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,160
everybody else in the chat as well. People in the chat,

624
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,839

00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,440
get to the window. So best a look, everybody, whatever

627
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,279
