  Speaker 1: Yep. Inside, I want to kill myself. We're on OWN
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: seven run over the last two days after tonight it
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: was just complete bullshit. So that's that's what I'm gonna
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: start off this show. Horrible Sunday one and five. I
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: don't even know what to tell you above that. I
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: just don't want to do this anymore. I have never
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: seen anything like this, Man, with the slump continuing. Two
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: straight losses, not a good day at all. Own four,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: I have not had a good season. Man, with bookends
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: the slump that I'm on, and the slump continues, I've
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: reached a new peak. Actually, I'm going to burn my
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Bruins hat Man. I don't know what is going on
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: with the Bruins. March eight, Is that what it is?
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: I don't even know it's March ninth. I think who
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: even knows? Man, I don't know what data is anymore.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: But I don't even know what data is anymore. Man,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: back with you after the wor stay that I could
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: possibly have back with you as I always am until
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: I die at least oh and two. Yesterday and yesterday
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: it did not go well for me. Own five the
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: worst month that I've ever had in my eighteen years
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: doing this. I don't know what to even tell you
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: about this anymore. Slump, the slump, disconvenience, the slump continues.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Somebody fucking kill me, please. I don't even know what
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: I should do at this point other than potentially end
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: it all. What's up? Everybody's towed back with you. This
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: is Toadstool Sports. It is Saturday, March thirty. First as
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: March madness continues. You know it hasn't been that mad,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: so we'll see how it continues. We're going to talk
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: about a handicap the second round because it's a bit
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: of a different handicap I think easier for me than
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the first round is because there are more situations that's
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: set up. Northern Iowa did not get there. I mean, dude,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: we got to a point where like Saint John's scored
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: like seventeen points in the first fifteen minutes of the
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: second half, which is like nothing, and yet Northern Iowa
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: still was not enarrange to cover that. I mean, that's
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: just ridiculous. It was a pretty low scoring game. Saint
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Johnson has scored that many points. That's basically what you
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: want when you're playing the big underdog like that. You
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: know I should have also mentioned you know, you could
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: probably wait on that one when I talked about it
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: in the morning because ten ten and a half was there.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Although it didn't matter at all, I'm pissed about it.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: And then we did get the win with the Calgary
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Flames to go one and one for a slight loss yesterday.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: One thing I did not realize is that Calgary was
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: THEYD won six home games in a row against the
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Florida Panthers, So the Panthers do not play well in
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Calgary in recent history. So that was another bonus there
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: that we didn't even I didn't even need to consider
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: that to add that as a play there. But glad
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: that we did because that was a win on Calgary.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: We'll move on today. We're gonna have two college basketball plays,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: one hockey play, and then the NBA play. You're not
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: gonna like it. I'll tell you that. You might not
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: like any of you. Well, I don't know. College is
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: just a totally different handicap. So we're gonna have some
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: favorites in this round of the college basketball tournament. Kyle,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: what's up? They start hanging out all right, But you
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: can be contrarian and still play favorites. So there is that.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Let's let's talk about it. Man College basketball the NCAA Tournament,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: second round, first game up in the Midwest. Well, first,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: I should say the way you want to handicap these games. Basically,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: as far as the totals are concerned, I think overs
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: actually tend to come in more so in the second
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: round because these teams are now used to the venue,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: so the site lines are better for them now that
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: they're playing in the same venue for the second game
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: in a row and were a little bit more tired
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: on the quick turnaround time. So overs make a bit
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: more sense in this round. And you want to look
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: towards the better coach because you have two teams that
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: don't really know each other very well, and on the
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: quick turnaround time, the edge goes to the better coach,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: if that makes sense, like more more so than it
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: usually would. So those are the things that consider here.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Saint Louis and Michigan is the first game up, continuing
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: in Buffalo, New York, where I think Michigan probably has
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: a decent crowd there. I didn't really watch the Michigan
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: game against Howard, but you know, Saint Louis looked really,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: really good, So now everybody knows who they are. You know,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: as I tweeted out, I feel like I've been listening
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: to some band for like four years, and now all
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, everyone is listening to them. With Robbie
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: of Vila, I'm like Ovula, I'm like, dude, I knew
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: who this guy was like years ago, and now everybody's like,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: who is this guy? I'm like, did you not watch
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Missouri Valley basketball back in the day. I don't know, man,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: and he's not fully healthy right now. Either he's got
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: plant or for shitas although he was making some good
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: plays in that game, Saint Louis annihilated Georgia. Georgia they
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: don't play defense though, yeah you know guess who does though,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Michigan Georgia. They're not a good team, dude, Saint Louis
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: interested me. Both these teams put up over one hundred
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: points in the first game, and I know there is
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: a trend where when teams put up one hundred points
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: in the opening round, they actually have a good against
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: the spread record in the second round, which doesn't make
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: any sense because you think that the first if somebody
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: scores one hundred points in the first game, you think
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: to be overvalued in the next game. I guess that's
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: not the case. But we don't have to worry about
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: that here because both teams scored over one hundred points.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: That would kind of make me think, well, I'd kind
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: of want to go under in this game because both
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: these teams scored so many points. But I don't think
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: we could do it, man. I mean, it's a quick
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: turnaround time. Like I said, these games tend to go
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: over a little bit. Uh, these teams both go up tempo,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: they both have good offenses, so it's yeah, I mean,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I just I would not want an under in this game,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: even if you think maybe it makes a little bit
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: of sense. The total is one fifty or excuse me,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: it's one sixty one. I was gonna say one fifty one.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: That's not high enough. Yeah, one sixty one. Money looks
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: like it's actually coming in on the over in this game,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: although I don't know how much value there could really be.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: The lines already got up towards the over, and both
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: teams scored one hundred points in the first game. Now
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna lean to Michigan, though in this game. Michigan
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: looks like the money is not agreeing with me. They're
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: laying twelve and a half here, fifty three percent of
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: the tickets on them, sixty percent of the cash on
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Saint Louis. I just think Saint Louis got all the
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: hype from that first round because you know, people don't
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: know who, like, didn't know who they were, right, so
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: now they're kind of that like trendy team, whereas everybody
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: knows who Michigan is. People aren't gonna like the fact
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: that Michigan gave up one hundred points against hot Or
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: gave up eighty points against Howard one hundred points, gave
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: up eighty points against Howard. But you know, Michigan just
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: stopped putting in defensive effort in that game, because why
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: would you when you're gonna win the game anyway, right, Like,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: just start looking ahead to the next game, you know,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: don't get yourself hurt, whatever, don't tax yourself. I'm fine
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: with that. Saint Louis. The problem for them is, yeah,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: they just put up, you know, a ton of points
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: against Georgia. But like I said, Georgia, their defense is
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: got awful. Michigan is like the number one defense in
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: the country, so there is gonna be a little bit
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: of a difference there. It's gonna be more difficult for
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Saint Louis to score that many points in this one.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: They'll score a good amount probably, but not enough. I
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: don't think in this one. I like Michigan here, but
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: not a strong opinion from me. The second game up
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: is in the East Region in Buffalo, New York as well,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: so Buffalo. First two games both in Buffalo and both
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: involving a Michigan team that's not really that far away
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: from Bubba Louisville and Michigan State. This one's a little
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: bit more interesting, Charles, what's up. Thanks for hanging out
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Michigan State. Now. They won pretty easily, I believe against
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: North Dakota State. Nothing to really see their Louisville beat
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: the very trendy underdog South Florida. A couple of things
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: that I forgot to mention with South Florida is they
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: did have a bit of a motivational aspect of that game,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: where I believe South Florida's coach's father was in the
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: audience for that game because I guess he can't go
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: to many games and I guess he lives in the
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Buffalo area, so he was able to attend that game.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Something like that. It's a little bit of a motivational
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: edge there. And then that plus I believe South Florida's
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: coach last year died towards the end of the season
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: due to like a surgery that went wrong or something.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: I don't know. You might have to look that up.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but that might have had South Florida
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: a little bit more motivated now that they get to
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: the tournament a end for the first time in a
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: long time. But either way, game's over. South Florida did cover,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: although I don't think they really should have covered. In
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: that game, Louisville pretty much had the upper hand. Louisville
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: really difficult to handicap them because all they do is
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: jack up threes and they're still without their best player
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: mckel Brown Junior. I don't believe he's playing in this game.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: What are you gonna get out of Louisville. It's it's
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: almost like throwing darts, dude. You don't know if they're
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: gonna hit their threes or not. Michigan State does allow
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: a lot of threes, like their three point defense is
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: actually not that good, so that's not great as far
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: as the matchup for Michigan State. But one thing that
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: is good for Michigan State is they slow the game
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: way down, which is not what South Florida does and
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: not what Louisville does, So Louisville's gonna have to completely
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: change pace here. Michigan State, if they could slow Louisville down,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: that should kind of put Louisville out of what they
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: want to be doing. Michigan State does have the better
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: defense in this game. Really really tough call. Michigan State
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: initially went up to four and a half. But the
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: money looks like it's all taking Louisville here. Eighty two
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: percent of the tickets, only fifty one percent of the cash,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: so Michigan State very public side, not a lot of
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: the money on them. This is like almost an impossible
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: game for me to handicap. I do think that probably
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: total is correlated to the side I think under in
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Michigan State are correlated. Totals at one fifty and a
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: half now over would be correlated to Louisville. You know,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: the market read is saying Louisville. I don't really have
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: a strong disagreement with it. I know I have Michigan
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: State getting through this in my bracket. We'll see what happens,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: but at least basically nobody has Louisville there, so we'll
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: see what happens. Maybe that part of that region just
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: starts becoming chaos, man, I don't know. But remember I
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: did say quick turnaround time. You do have to consider
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: who the coaches are, and I do think tom Izzo
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: does have the advantage here on the quick turnaround time.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: I apologize I don't even remember who Louisville's coaches is.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Those gotta have the edge over him, though. In the
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: first game, I think you gotta give Dusty May the
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: edge over Shirts. I think it's Saint Louis's coach's name.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: He's been good though, all right, Yeah, that's what I
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: thought he was like in his forties too. So South
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: Florida's coach there, She squealed, what's up? Thanks for hanging out?
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: All right? The next game up is going to be
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: one of my plays. You might not like this one,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: and you might think this is unlike me, but I'm
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: telling you it's not because I go contrarian all the time.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: We're looking at what happened in the first round. That's
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: why I like the second round because everybody overreacts to
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: what happened in the first round. And what was the
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: biggest overreaction that we saw in the first round, Duke
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Socks is the overreaction. They were losing by double digits
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: to Siana. They almost lost to Sianna in the the
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: six or the sixteen versus one game. Siana, by the way,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: they literally didn't rest any of their starters in the
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: entire game. Their coach is Jeremy act in Amera. By
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: the way, I'm pretty sure Sianna. Yeah, I mean they
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: ran out of gas at the end of the Cianna.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: I think they only go like six deep. But they
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: never even used any of their bench players in that game.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: And you know, they their starters were playing well, but
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: they ran out of steam at the end of the game.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Everybody's gonna overreact to it. I would say, don't do that.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: We're gonna lay the points with Duke against CCU. People
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: are gonna be like, how could Duke possibly win by
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: double digits against CCU when they almost lost to Seanna? Right, Well, Duke, dude,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: I know Duke is missing two players. We know Foster
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: that was already expected. He is not going to play
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: until late in the tournament, if at all, if they
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: even get that far. I thought Nagungbo is gonna be
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: back for Duke, but he isn't. So I guess maybe
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: they figured, well, we could beat Sianna without him anyway,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: they did so, but I think Duke, you know, they
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: just I think Duke took Sianna really lightly once. Dude,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: if you watched any of that game Duke, it almost
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: looked like a cat playing with a mouse. It was like,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: how did Duke almost lose that game? Like they were
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: like so clearly the way better team, like physically and whatever. Like.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: It was like Duke could just turn it on at
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: any time and just end this game. It was so ridiculous.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: It's not gonna happen in this one. Duke will take
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: TCU more seriously here. Now. One thing that's really good
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: is when you have a really good team that gets
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: a huge scare in the first round, it's good to
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: play them in the second round because they're gonna be
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: focused because they know how bad they were in that
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: first game. They know they got away with it as
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: far as shire as this, you know, with his coaching whatever.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's still relatively new, but he's done this before.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: He's been to two final fours already. M Me, come on.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I know he's up against Jamie Dixon. Dixon's a good
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: coach as well. I don't know if one necessarily is
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: that big of an edge over the other, but in
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: this one, we're going with the situation. This game is
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: also in Greenville, South Carolina, so Duke is gonna have
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: a massive crowd at this game, no doubt about that.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: TCU got a nice win over Ohio State, tough win. Yeah,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: give him credit for that. That was good. It's just
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: not gonna happen. Man, It's not gonna happen. I know TCU.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: They played well against Michigan early in the year. They
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: beat Florida, so I know TCU has this kind of
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: giant killer aspect to them. But you know, they did
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: have a double digit loss to Arizona on their own
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: floor in there. You know mostly, yes, they've stepped up
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: well against their big opponents. But I just think, you know,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: you're gonna run into a Duke team. It's gonna be
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: like massively focused in this game and getting a home crowd.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: I actually think this line is a little bit light. Here.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Duke is still the way better team. We're on Duke here,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: eleven and a half fifty eight percent of the cash
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: on Duke, fifty one percent of the tickets on TCU.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: That's that the Duke's first round game doesn't bode well
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: for Duke's championship aspirations. I'll tell you that because no
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: one seed that's won the championship has ever failed to
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: win their first game by at least fifteen points. So
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: that does not bode well for Duke. But even so,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: I like them in this game. At the very least,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Duke's gonna win this game. Man, you agree with it? Yeah, yeah,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: some of these I mean, yeah, again, it doesn't look
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: good for Duke as far as winning the championship, but
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: they're still one of the best teams in the country. Man.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: Even without those two players, there's still like a top
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: several team in the entire country. So yeah, And for
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: these first games can be weird where teams just you know,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: they're out of sorts or early in the game whatever.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: I did give out a lean on CNA plus the points,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: and that one didn't I didn't want to make it
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: a play. But yeah, all right. Next game up is
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Texas A and M in Houston in the South Regional.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: This is in Oklahoma City, which I think is you know,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: obviously it's not beneficial necessarily to either team in this
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: case because the game is gonna be close to Texas.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's a good matchup for Texas A
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: and M. Texas A and M, you know, they play
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Bucky ball. He's still new as a coach here. They
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: play super fast. I thought that Saint Mary's is gonna
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: be able to slow them down. That didn't happen. But
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Houston is an even more slow down team and a
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: way better team. So I don't think Texas A and
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: M is gonna be able to do what they want
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: to do here. I think Houston's gonna be able to
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: slow the game down. Houston. You know, they're coming off
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: a pretty easy win. They be I to hope, pretty easily.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Whatever A and M, you know, had to they at
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: least got used to playing a slowdown team. But I
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: just don't think it's enough. Houston has the coaching edge
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: here as well, with Kelvin Samson. I mean, you know,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: he's been a multiple final fours, been to one championship game,
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: got to give him the coaching edge here in an
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: environment like this, I like to slow down team better
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: as well, which is Houston. Houston is the better team.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Houston gets it done here. Man, that would be my guess.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: I don't really want to lay the double digits, even
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: though I know I'm doing it with Duke, and Duke
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: is also slow down team. That's kind of an extreme
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: scenario though, I'm not gonna do it with Houston here,
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: but I would actually probably I think I would still
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: lean towards laying the points with Houston here. The money's
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: not agreeing with me though. Sixty eight percent of tickets,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: sixty five percent of the cash on Houston, so less
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: of the cash on them. Ten and a half is
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: the number on that. It is a pretty low total,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: around the same that it is in the Duke game.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: But some of that is going to be that, you know,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Duke and Houston are gonna come out and play some
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: defense as well, so you know Poland Spring, Yeah, not Moland.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: I like the name Moland. That's another self why the
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: self park? My mind's ever Seinfeld. That's another Seinfeld reference
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: for you there yes, I'm getting microplaid and my balls
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: all right. Getting into the evening games here, we do
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: have Texas and Gonzaga in the West Region in Portland, Oregon,
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: So I think Gonzaga does have a site edge here
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: in Portland, which is pretty close to Spokekane, Washington, relatively
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: close for Gonzaga plays Texas. They got the job done.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: That was a play that I gave out the other day.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: They got it done. They were one of the playing
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: teams that I thought had an advantage because it had
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: already gotten a game under their belt. I was not
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: high on BYU at all. Texas got the job done there. Gonzaga,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: I consider putting this on my card because Gonzaga is
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: one of those teams where they didn't look good as
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: a favorite. In their first game. I thought they were
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: gonna easily handle Kansas State and it didn't happen. Kansas
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: State slowed the game down, which I didn't think was
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: gonna be what they were gonna do. And Gonzaga actually
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: had trouble in that game and they didn't get through
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: it by that much. So I think Gonzaga got a
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: bit of a scare there. Man. I think they're gonna
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: turn it on and play better in this game. There's
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: still the better team here. Gonzaga definitely has the better
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: defense here. That's Texas's weakness is that their defense is
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: outside the top one hundred. Texas also tries to play
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: slow and Gonzaga wants to go fast, and I think
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Gonzaga might be able to do that a little bit
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: better in this one. I mean, I know it is
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: easier to slow the game down, and Kennesaw was able
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: to do it, but I think that was kind of
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: unexpected because Kennisaw is not even a slow down team,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: so that made no sense. Yeah, I mean, I'm just
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: gonna lean towards the favorite that barely got by in
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: the first game here. I like Gonzaga in this one.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: I'm also gonna give them the coaching edge year between
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Mark Few and Sean Miller. Who dude, Sean Miller, He's
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: got to like put the white shirt on man so
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: he could sweat through it again. If you remember that
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: back when he was with Arizona, that was like the
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: one of the things that he's most known for was
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: completely sweating through his shirt. He looked like he wasn't
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: even wearing a shirt. Anymore. If you remember that that
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: was during the term and like I don't know when
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: when was that, Like I don't know, it was about
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: a decade ago. Probably you can go find that pretty easily.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Sean Miller now with Texas, you know,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's an experienced coach, but he's not as
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: good as Mark Few. I think Goodzag is gonna make
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: some adjustments here. I think they're gonna get the job done.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: The money's not agreeing with me on that, but I
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: would lay it in this one. A lot of favorite
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: opinions for me here, I know, but uh, Gonzaga lank
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: six here, fifty nine percent of the tickets, sixty percent
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: of the cash on Texas, fifty nine percent of tickets
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: and sixty percent of the cash on Texas. I should
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: say to me, I think the public just doesn't really
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: want Goodzaga that much after that first game. So those
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: are my thoughts. They're key. What's up, man? You think
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: Texas is gonna win the game outright? Yeah, as you
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: just heard, I do not agree with that. Good luck
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: if you do that. I like Gonzaga on that one.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: That one, it was close to being a play for me.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you that, so I do not agree, but
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: we'll we'll see, Uh, we'll see who wins there. I'm
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: not gonna have any bets on it or anything, so
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: good luck with your bet. Yes Sean Miller with the
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: the Sean Miller wet t shirt contest. Yes, all right.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: We have VCU in Illinois in the South Region in Greenville,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: South Carolina. So the site edge actually is a little
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: bit in favor of VCU. I think we got to
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: probably give the coaching edge to Underwood. I mean, he's
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: made some somewhat deep tournament runs in the past. I
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: was in per I was there in person for Illinois
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: when they made that run to the Elite eight a
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: couple of years ago. Illinois, you know in Iowa State
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: and uh Yukon. Of course they're the one of the years.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: The year that Yukon won is like the overall one seed,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: which sucked for me because I wasn't gonna pick them
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: my bracket. But I was at those games. It was
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: kind of boring. Yukon just easily won those games. But
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: I did see Illinois play there anyway. Illinois they won
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: in their first game pretty easily. They beat Penn I
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: mean Penn. We knew Penn was not really going to
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: stand a chance there, and I think Power was kind
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: of playing injured or something for Penn as well. Illinois
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: easy win for them there, VCU. Those kind of the
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: you know, they're one of those like Cinderella teams right now,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: if you want to call it, Dude, I don't consider
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: them to be that. I mean, they were only a
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: two point underdog against a pretty weak North Carolina team
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: and they beat them. I don't know how North Carolina
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: blew that game, dude, I really don't. As you guys know,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: I had North Carolina in my bracket to get through
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: that one game. I have Illinois winning this game obviously,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: and for what it's worth, I have Gonzaga advancing in
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: my bracket. Houston Duke of Michigan State. That's how my
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: bracket goes right now, anyway. And I almost got every
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: game in my bracket right yesterday until Missouri let me
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: down in the last game of the night. Although I
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: wasn't perfect on Thursday obviously, and I won't be for
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: the rest of the for the rest of the tournament
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: either anyway. Yeah, VCU, I don't know what happened in
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: that game with North Carolina, and they blew a nineteen
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: point lead in the last like eight minutes of the game.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I want to say, they were up fourteen with like
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: five minutes left. They were still up five in the
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: final like forty seconds. I don't know how that happened.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: I watched the end of that game, and I still
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: don't know how it happened. There was that one bad
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: foul call where VCUS player fell. Nobody even touched him
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: and they called the foul there he hit both free throws.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: Then North Carolina had a couple of the worst possessions
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: you'll ever see. They had like two possessions to try
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: to win the game, and they I don't even think
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: they got a single shot attempt off. Then they only
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: scored three points in overtime, which is absolutely outrageous, ridiculous.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: None of it makes any sense. So I don't know, man,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, Illinois clearly is the better team here. Are
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: they going to cover this number? Though? I guess is
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: you know what we have to figure out here. I
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: don't know the money is coming in on Illinois fifty
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: nine percent of ticket sixty four percent of the cash
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: on them. I mean this Illinois team. They're very, very
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: good on offense. I think they are the considerably better
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: team here. I don't know. Vcus seems a little bit
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: kind of trendy after that first game that they had there.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: I mean, it looks I think the public is gonna
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: think that's kind of a lot of points to be laying.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: With the eleven and a half there, I would probably
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: lean towards laying it, to be honest with that one.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: I struggle a lot to figure that game out. Probably
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: the most competitive game of the day is the five
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: to four matchup in the South Vandy and Nebraska, which
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: is in Oklahoma City, so the site advantage is Nebraska's here.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Nebraska did have a lot of fans at the game,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: but you could be seeing maybe a little bit of
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: a letdown here for Nebraska because they got their first
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: tournament win in program history. Man, that was a huge
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: deal for them, huge win. Finally get that done. Now
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: you could make the argument, now the monkeys off their
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: backs and now they can just play with you know,
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: play looser. That's true. Nebraska does have the better deepfense here.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Both these teams are somewhat tournament inexperience. Although Vandy was
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: in the tournament last year. I think Vandy is the
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: more balanced team here, though, Man, Nebraska does have the
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: better defense, but Vandy has more balance and they are
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: the better offense. Of course, Vandy's gonna try to speed
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: the game up. Nebraska's gonna try to slow it down,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: and normally, I you know, normally I do lean to
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: these slow down defensive teams. I don't know, man, I
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: don't know if I trust Nebraska as far as the
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: coaching is concerned. I don't even know which way I
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: would give the coaching edge here. I don't even remember
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: who Vandy's coach is. To be honest with you, I
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: know Nebraska is Hoiberg Vandy. If you look at what
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: happened in the first round, though, people are not going
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: to be that impressed that Vandy only beat MacNeice by ten.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: Vandy was losing that game by ten orally in the game, though,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: and they turned it on and swung the game by
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: twenty points, which is not that easy to do against MacNeice,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: So you gotta give him credit for that. Whereas Nebraska
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: absolutely destroyed Troy, so maybe they look a little bit
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: better than they actually are with that win Like that,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: I tend to lean towards the team that had the
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: closer call in the first game, you know what I mean,
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: because they're it's almost like they're more used to the
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: pressure situation sort of. But also they didn't look as
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: good as maybe they actually are. There's a reason why
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Vandy is actually the favorite in this game. The objectors
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: are telling you they're the better team. I do have
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Vandy winning this game in my bracket, even though they're
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: a little bit of a public ish side in the
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: brackets there. I'm gonna lean to Vandy in this one though.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: Fifty percent of the tickets, fifty one percent of the
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: cash on Vandy, I'll lean that way. But it's not
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: a strong opinion for me at all. You like Vandy,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: You like Vandy? Oh man, If everybody likes Vandy, then
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: I might have to dude, I need to be contrarian.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: That might mean I'm not thinking about this game, right.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean I agree with it, but
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: not a strong opinion. Mark something. Mock OHI mock. Yeah,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: that's a good point. Nebraska, they live and die by
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: the three. You're correct, Vandy has more balance in that
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: regard as well. Yes, these teams that yeah, live and
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: die by the three. You know, Vandy Louisville, Wisconsin already died,
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: which I'm gonna talk about next. I think, Yeah, this
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: is my other plays the last game of the night
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: in Portland, Oregon, which is not a good site for
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: either of these teams. High Point in Arkansas. But we're
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: gonna also have a favorite in this game. We're gonna
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: lay the points with Arkansas. You know me, dude, I'm
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: not buying these Cinderella runs. I think are just not
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: a thing anymore. We got the nil the transfer portal.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's sad March madness is you know, I
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: don't think it is what it was. We're gonna fade
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: the trendy the only serious underdog that got the win
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: in the first round. High Point. I don't think they're
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: gonna be able to turn around and do it again
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: here and again. What did I you know, what what
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: have I been saying throughout this episode here is that
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: the better coach has the advantage on the quick turnaround
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: time here. We're gonna go with cal Parry with that one,
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: even though I am not a fan of his, but
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: he's the better coach here. High Point. Their coaches actually
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: knew this year, although he was like an assistant last year,
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: took over for the dude's name who I never remember.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: I keep wanting to say it's Alan Huss was their
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: coach last year, but I can't remember if that's actually
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: his name. And he's like waiting in the wings to
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: take over at some larger school, and I forget where
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: he went as well. But yeah, I think Arkansas is
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: gonna get it done. I know we lost trying to
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: fade Arkansas with Hawaii. I know Hawaii their defense just
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: didn't do enough to like they almost got the cover,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: but you know, it was just it never felt like
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: they were really going to They missed it by a
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: few points. But I think Arkansas is going to take
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: care of business here. Man. They saw what High Point
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: just did, so they're not gonna take High Point for granted. Now. Now,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: High Point matched up better against Wisconsin than against Arkansas
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: because Arkansas doesn't turn the ball over very much. Wisconsin
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: turns it over more than Arkansas does. High Point relies
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: on turnovers. They have a good turnover margin, they get
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: a lot of turnovers. They're not gonna be able to
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: do that as much against Arkansas. Arkansas is also not
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: heavily three point reliance. High Point defends the three fairly well.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: Wisconsin relies on the three, Arkansas doesn't. Arkansas tries to
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: drive to the basket a lot, So that's not a
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: good from a matchup perspective. I don't think that's good
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: for high Point. High Point is coming off the high
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: pun intended, I guess, of pulling off that upset huge game.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: It was their first tournament win in program history because
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: last year was their first appearance, so I think it's
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: kind of like, you know, job done. And if you
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: saw some of the postgame press conference stuff with high Point,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: they seem to be over celebrating to me, man, So
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: I think that's not a good thing you're gonna run
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: to in You're gonna run into a legit Arkansas team here. Yeah,
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: I don't like how how it sets up for high
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: Point in this one. Also, high Point was plus eighteen
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: from three point range against Wisconsin, when both of those
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: teams do take a lot of threes. But high Point
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: had six more three pointers made the Wisconsin did and
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: they only won the game by one. So that's not
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: a good sign, dude, that Wisconsin actually still dominated High
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Point in the paint in that game, and Wisconsin had
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: Winter back, but he looked like he was still playing injured.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: And whatever, dude guard, Like, Wisconsin's gonna have to get
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: rid of that guy, Like he keeps losing these tournament games,
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: high pressure games, the games that they shouldn't lose. He
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: just does these weird things where he switches up there,
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: like rotation and like doesn't keep like he doesn't stick
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: with what's working. Very very weird. I don't know what's
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: up with that guy anyway. Yeah, I mean something like
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen in this game. And I think,
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: but what I was saying is Wisconsin still dominated in
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: the paint against High Point Point. Arkansas is a team
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: that likes to, you know, get it to the basket,
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: so I think they're gonna be able to do the
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: same thing. And Arkansas, by the way, they did not
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: hit many threes and they still won their game by
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: like twenty points. And they only hit like sixty three pointers.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: I think maybe even less. It might have been four.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: Whatever it was, Arkansas didn't have to rely on the
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: three and they still won that game easily. That's a
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: good sign. Whereas High Point barely won their game even
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: though they had a huge three point advantage in the game.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: So that's not a good sign for High Point moving forward.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: So we are gonna lay it with Arkansas here. The
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: money doesn't look like it's agreeing with me though, sixty
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: three percent of the ticket, sixty two percent of the
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: catch on Arkansas. They're laying eleven and a half money
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: seems to not be agreeing with me. But we're doing it, man.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I did, I say, dude, do I like
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: every favorite? That's not good? If I no, I lean
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: against Michigan State. That's the only underdog opinion that I
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: had on that slate. Whatever, it's the way that it is, man, Yeah,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Chase Johnson. But I mean it's like it's so unsustainable though, like, oh,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: there are four minutes left in the game that we
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: just chuck up a shot from the logo, Like you
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: can't just keep doing that, man, Like that, that's not
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: gonna be sustainable. Over I would not really disagree with
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: an over here. I mean again, it's a second game
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: on a quick turnaround time that lends itself towards overs.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: The money looks like it's kind of indicating towards the under,
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: though with less of the money than the ticket percentage
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: on that total. There, it's a very high total though
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: it's high for a reason, one sixty nine, which you
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: know would have me sort of leaning over there. Arkansas
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: good offense, not a great defense, same with high Point.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: So yeah, both teams are definitely better on offense. I'm
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: not really gonna disagree with an over, even though it
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: seems too obvious. But yeah, Arkansas second half, Yeah, that
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: might be something I would Yeah, that might be like
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: a live betting thing, like see how the first half goes.
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: And you know, like if Arkansas is losing at halftime,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: which I really don't think is going to be the case.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: If they are, then maybe playing Arkansas in the second
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: half seems like a pretty good idea. Yes, Mark Few,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: I think Charles is saying that, not Mark Kreeg. By
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: the way Charles is saying that, I think Mark is
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: also Vandy's coaches. I don't even know man, all right,
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: And we do have two NIT games that I'm not
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: really interested in. But the NIT continues tonight with Dayton
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: going to UNC Wilmington. Dayton won as a road favorite
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: in their first game against Bradley. Easy win for Dayton.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: They're kind of a weird spot now though they have
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: to go from Illinois now to UNC Wilmington because the
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: higher seed, or the better seed, I should say, is
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: the host of these games. Wilmington is traveling back from Yale.
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: They went up to Yale and pulled off the upset there.
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: I told you I liked UNC Wilmington in that game
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: because Yale, the way that they lost their conference tournament
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: and should have gotten into the NCAA tournament was just
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: I thought it was a very deflating loss. I thought
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: they wouldn't show up in this game. Wilmington got the
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: job done there. This is a tough call here in
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: this one. The one good thing for Wilmington is they
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: get to play another slop based team. Wilmington is really
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: struggled against teams that speed it up. But that is
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: not Dayton and that is not Yale. So Wilmington gets
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: to play these slow based teams. Here. Dayton's a two
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: and a half point favorite, fifty nine percent of tickets,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: only fifty five percent of the cash low total here.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't really disagree with an under to be honest
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: in this game, but you know, you do have to
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: worry a little bit about the travel. But like a
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: team like Dayton, you know, going to another new venue,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: they gotta get used in the new venue. I think
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: I would lean to NC Wilmington in that one plus
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: the points. Not a strong opinion though, and then Liberty
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: and Nevada. Nevada is the only one of these teams
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: that's staying at home because they actually won a home.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: The home teams didn't do well in the first round
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: of the NI some of them got knocked out and
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: many of them didn't cover. Good for us because we
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: won on South Alabama on the show. But Liberty they
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: pulled off the upset. And you know, I don't really
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: trust Liberty though, Like I don't really think they're that good.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: They're undersized and they're two three point reliant. They did
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: beat George Mason, who I think is also kind of
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: an overrated team. Nevada is a little bit different, man.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: I think having to go from Liberty, They're having to
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: go from George Mason in Virginia all the way out
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: to Reno for this that's gonna be a weird travel spot. Man.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Nevada I think does have a pretty big edge staying
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: at home. They're also sixteen and two straight up at home,
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: although obviously you're gonna have to lay points here if
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: you want Nevada. Nevada won the first game at home
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: against Murray State, who was a little bit overrated. I think,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: and you know, these teams have again having to travel
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: to Reno. It's not gonna be easy. I would lay
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: it with Nevada on this one. I was gonna do
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: anything with it. Liberty fifty eight percent of the tickets,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: only fifty two percent of the cash on them. Nevada
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: is a seven point favorite. So those are my thoughts
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: on the nit. All right, let's do hockey. We have
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: a bunch of hockey because it's Saturday. I will have
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: one play in hockey here. You get burned by overs.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: You gotta like find the right spots to play the overs,
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: I guess I would say. I mean the public likes
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: over so I think the unders probably do cash a
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: slight majority of the time, but not enough that you
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: can just blindly fade overs like I don't know. If
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: you pick the right spots for overs, I think you can.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: You could definitely win by doing so. NHL Network in
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: the afternoon at one pm. We have Winnipeg in Pittsburgh.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: This is actually my play. Like I started going through
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: the hockey board and I'm like right away, I'm like,
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: I love this play in the first game. And then
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, crap, how many of these games am
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: I gonna like? And then I'm like, oh, it turns
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: out this is the only one. This is the hockey
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: best bet here, and I like this one quite a bit.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: We're gonna be on Winnipeg on the money line. Get
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: a nice money line underdog price here plus one thirty six.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: It's in that range. Whe I would just say play
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: the money line on this one. I mean, if you
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: want to do some crazy shit and like split the
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: bet puck line money line, you could do that too.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: I just think, you know, it's a small enough underdog
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: price that it's like it's in that ranger. I would
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: just say, go money line Winnipeg. They're coming off a
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: horrible loss to my Boston Bruins six to one. The
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Bruins are really good at home. Hellobuk was in net
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: for that one. I know I'm bad performance from him.
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: I'm expecting that he will play again in this game
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: because he usually plays a lot of games in a row.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: They're not on a back to back or anything. I
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: think they're in a bounce back spot. Regardless though, when
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: you lose six to one, you're gonna be angry and
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: you're gonna come out with more focus. I think in
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: the next game, you're gonna be focused more on playing
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: better defense, etc. So I think you're gonna get a
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: better effort out of Winnipeg here. Pitt's been having a
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: decent season, so they're not a team you're really gonna overlook.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: And for Pittsburgh, the spot for them is horrible. Are
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: they're returning home from a road trip that they've been
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: on since March tenth, where they started with a shootout
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: loss at Carolina. They went through that road trip. They're
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: on the road the whole time. They went all the
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: way out to the Pacific Coast into elevation. They killed
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: Colorado towards the end of the road trip, and then
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: they finished the road trip by losing at Carolina again
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: on Wednesday in overtime. A huge game. Dude, You take
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: Carolina at overtime, that's a monster effort there. Now. I
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: know they've had a couple of days off, but they're
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: coming off with that monster game. They're returning home from
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: a road trip, and you know, I talk about when
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: teams are turning on from road trips, a lot of
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: times they won't be focused because they have to get
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: back to home life. They have stuff to do at home.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: It becomes a distraction. You might overlook your opponent if
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: it's not a good opponent, like Winnipeg. You're coming off
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: a monster monster a couple of games here, crushing Colorado,
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: almost being in Carolina, and it gets war because who
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: does Pittsburgh play next? They play Carolina tomorrow and then
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: they play Colorado after that. Sore dude, they're in a
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: palindrome spot here. I mean, look at this. This is insane.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: They're in a double deck or sandwich here. I've never
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: seen I don't think I've ever seen anything like this.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: It's insane. This spot is so bad for Pittsburgh. Winnipeg
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: is the play in this one. The money looked like
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: it was the money's disagreeing with me on this. I
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: don't even know how that's possible. Winnipeg is the right
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: side here. Fifty nine percent of the tickets, ninety seven
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: percent of the cash on Pittsburgh. I don't get it
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: at all, Like this is one of the better spots
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: that I've seen. I couldn't believe it when I saw this,
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: Like everything lines up for me on this game, Winnipeg,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: Unload on it, baby, Don't over bet. I'm kind of kidding.
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: Don't bet more than you could have borne on anything.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: You don't want to, dude, you don't want to like
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: elevate your bet size, like for one thing. Like yeah,
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: like if you want to weigh your bet like a
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: little bit more strongly because this one is stronger, that's fine,
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: do that, but it's got to be within your parameters still,
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like again, I recommend like
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: having a bank roll and never betting more than like
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: at max. I think you probably want to put like
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: one and a half percent of your bank roll on
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: a bet that you think is like extremely strong. You
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: know what I mean. I don't even usually do that,
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: Like me, I just do like one percent on everything
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: pretty much. So take from that when you want him.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: Vegas at Nashville in the afternoon. Vegas coming off two
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: straight shutout losses after a shutout win, so every game
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: has been a shutout for Vegas recently, coming off a
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: four nothing, a home shutout loss to Utah. Going out
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: on the road should be a spot where you should
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: get some focus out of Vegas here. But they do
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: have Dallas tomorrow, so there is the potential look ahead
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: there that would worry me a little bit about Vegas
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: being in a bounce back spot here Nashville coming off
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: a couple of wins here. We tried to fade Nashville
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: in the return home spot and they still beat Seattle,
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: which is you know, I'm not happy about that. Now
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: they're in the second game back home, I don't think
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: they're going to overlook Vegas. So this is a tough
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: call in this one. The money is coming in on
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: the Nashville side. It looks like Vegas minus one thirty
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: five eighty one percent of the tickets on Vegas sixty
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: eight percent of the money. Though on Nashville. I mean,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: I don't have a strong opinion here. If you want
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: to agree with the market the market is saying Nashville.
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: I think probably most of the reasoning behind it might
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: even just be that I guess maybe the Vegas is
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: a little bit overrated here and that Vegas has that
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: look ahead to Dallas. But you know, I don't love
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: that game at all. Dallas at Minnesota. Dallas is coming
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: up beating Colorado on the road, big win for Dallas
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: at Colorado. Had a couple of days off to kind
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: of think about that. Now they're going to Minnesota. They
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: shouldn't overlook Minnesota, but coming up of a big win
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: at Colorado, man could still be a little bit of
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: a hangover. And I think you will get a good
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: out of Minnesota here because they just lost at home
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: to Chicago and they're staying at home now. Yeah, they
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: got a TV game against Tampa Bay coming up, they
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: have to go on the road, but they're not gonna
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: overlook Dallas, and you're probably not gonna overlook anybody after
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: you lose to Chicago at home. So I think you're
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: gonna get an effort out of Minnesota. I like Minnesota
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: on this one. Dallas is up to Mins one twenty
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: eight sixty one percent of the tickets on Dallas fifty
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: three percent of the casual Minnesota is the money Seemingly
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: agreeing with me on that one. Buffalo at La, we
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: know LA. They're not a good home team. I always
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: point that out. They're not very good at home. They're
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: better than the Rangers. At least. Buffalo is on a
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: three game win streak. They just shut out Vegas and
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: San Jose on the road. Buffalo is just rolling right now.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: They might look a little bit too good right now.
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: It might be feeling a little bit too good about
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: themselves after doing that. So there could be, you know,
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: maybe a little bit of a letdown component of this
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: year after a couple of road shut out victories. King
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: you know, like I said, they're not particularly good at home,
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: but they did just lose in their return home spot
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: there to Philadelphia. That was a win. I gave that
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: one out on the show. I'm pretty sure because the
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: Kings were returning home from a road trip finished it
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: with a satisfying win against the Rangers. What else is new?
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Of course, the road team won that matchup with the
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: huge home roads splits that favor the road team for
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: both of those teams. Then LA lost to Philadelphia in
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: that first game back home, and I always talk about
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: how when teams don't do well in that first game
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: back home, a lot of times they will play better
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: in that next game because now they're settled in at home,
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: they got done what they need to get done. They
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: didn't do well in that first game. It'll get them
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: to focus again. I thought they might have been looking
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: ahead to this game against Buffalo as well. So I
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: do actually like the Kings in this game, despite their
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: bad home track record. I'm not gonna put this on
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: my card, but I like the Kings. Buffalo up to
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: minus won twenty one sixty eight percent of the tickets,
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: only fifty seven percent of the cash on Buffalo. So
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: I do LA in that one. Philly at San Jose.
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: Philly has won a couple of games out in California
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: as well. Remember I liked Philly in both those games,
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: and actually I think we won in the Anaheim game.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: I think it is the one that we won with Philly.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: I stayed off the game against LA, but I gave
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: out a lean on Philly in that one. Our friend
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: Jeffrey I think was on the Flyers in the second game,
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: which I did agree with because they did have a
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: lot of rest prior to those two games. But now
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: they're playing a third game in four and as all
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: in different cities. They caught Anaheim and LA both in
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: return home spots. Man, I'm pretty sure so Philly got
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: they had an advantage there, man, catching those teams in
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: those spots. Now, they played four overtime games in a row.
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: I don't like Philly in this one, man, I don't.
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: And San Jose is coming off a bad home loss
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: to I know, Buffalo's pretty good, san Jose's not that good,
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: but five nothing home loss, three losses in a row,
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: they have a lot of five or more goals. But
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: also San Jose was returning home from a road trip
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: in that game against Buffalo, so they're in kind of
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: a tricky spot there that you know is usually a
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: pretty big negative. So I do like San Jose in
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: this one. I would go with the Sharks in this one.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: Money does seem to agree with me on that one.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: Fifty percent of tickets, eighty percent of the cash on
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: san Jose. I like that one. I do agree with
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: that one, you know, as far as like, if I
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: was going to add any of these to my card,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: I think that would actually probably be my second favorite.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Then I then I guess La, then Minnesota to the
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: ones I've talked about so far. I get in trouble
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: when I start ranking these things, though I'm trying to
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: be I'm trying to be locked in here all right,
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: Seattle and Columbus. Seattle a couple of pretty bad losses. Well,
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: I don't want to say bad, but they lost six
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: to two to Tampa Bay at home. Tampa is really good,
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: but six to two ugly. Then they went to Nashville
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: and they caught Nashville in the return home spot. I
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: gave out Seattle as a play on the show things
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: not going well for us here on the show show
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: recently man, Seattle lost that game. I think there might
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: have been an empty netter at the end of that.
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: Maybe they bounce back here though they do a Florida
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: on Tampa Bay and Buffalo and Edmonton all upcoming though,
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: So that's the worry. But maybe they don't overlook Columbus. Man,
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: you've lost a couple of games in a row in
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: bad fashion, Columbus having a decent season. You know, maybe
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: you do show up for a game against them. Columbus
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: has won three games in a row. They didn't suffer
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: the let down off of the Carolina win. Huge win there.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: They turn around and they just beat the Rangers anyway,
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: even though it was the Rangers on the road where
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: the Rangers are better. I think I probably said that
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: I leaned to the Rangers in that one. Yeah, I mean,
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: tough call. In this game, I would probably lean to Seattle.
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: The money seems like it's agreeing with me. Ninety two
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: percent of the tickets, fifty seven percent of the cash
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: on Columbus. They look like a pretty public side with
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: less than the money on them. They're minus one seventy five,
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: So a lot of respect from the odds makers for
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: Columbus there. I lean to Seattle. Maybe a split bet,
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: puck line, money line whatever. Islanders at Montreal Islanders coming
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: off a loss to Ottawa. Ottawa actually playing pretty well
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: for the most part this season. Islanders, Yeah, I mean
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: they're not gonna overlook Montreal coming off of that. It
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: was a tough game. But Montreal, I mean they're another
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: pretty good team this year. Montreal just lost to Detroit
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: on the road, difficult game. Detroit's pretty good as well.
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: Montreal does have Carolina on deck this one. I really
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: don't have much of an opinion on this at all.
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: The money is saying Montreal right now, so do with
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: that what you want to. I guess eighty seven percent
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: of tickets on the Islanders, sixty four percent of the
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: cash though on Montreal it minus won twenty one, even
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: though they actually dropped on the money line. But the
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: cash looks like it is on Montreal. There again, no
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: strong opinion for me at all on that one, but
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: the money says Montreal. So if you want that, you
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: know you can use that information appropriately. Toronto at Ottawa, Toronto,
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: I don't love the spot that they're in. Man, they're
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: on a back to back. I think they might be
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: the only team that's on a back to back on
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: the NHL card here NHL board. I should say, they
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: played yesterday and they took Carolina to overtime. Huge game
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: for Toronto. Man, it just falling short yesterday against Carolina,
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: quick turnaround time, traveling to Ottawa, not a huge travel leg.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: But I still don't know what you're gonna get out
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: of Toronto here for this man, off of that huge game,
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: very difficult spot I think for them, Ottawa coming up
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: beating the Islanders. They're playing a third game in four days,
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: but they're back at home here. Staying at home for
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: this game could win over the Islanders, but they do
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: have a day of rest here. I would lean towards
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: Ottawa here, but they're laying minus two point fifty eighty
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: five percent of tickets, ninety eight percent of the cash
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: on them. I mean, if you wanted to go Autawa,
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: like over their team total or something, I wouldn't really
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: hate that, you know, to just get a bunch of
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: goals scored against Toronto, who I don't really think is
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: particularly good on deepfense or in the goaltending department. So
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: if you wanted to do it that way, you know,
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: if you want to lay Outawa puck line, I guess
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: you could do that. But puck lines, I mean, they
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: get pretty dicey in hockey, man, because not a lot
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: of goals scored in hockey. Saint Louis at Vancouver. Saint
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: Louis just lost two to one at Calgary, unfortunately, because
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: we had Saint Louis in that game. With Calgary returning
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: over from a road trip, Saint Louis, maybe they show
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: up for this one after that. They've had a couple
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: of days off, probably want to salvage a game on
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: this road trip. If they're own two on the road trip,
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: this is the final game. Bad loss to Calgary, you know,
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: maybe they do want to show up for this one here.
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: Vancouver just lost to Tampa Bay two days ago. Bad
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: final outcome though, six to two Vancouver. Maybe in a
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: little bit of a letdown spot there off of that
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: Florida win. They beat Florida five. Dude, Tampa is really
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: really good though, you know, maybe there's a bounce back
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: component to this. Maybe not. I don't know. This is
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: a difficult game. I don't really have a good opinion
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: on this one at all. The money's all coming in
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: on Saint Louis, for what that's worth. They're up to
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: minus one thirty seven, ninety percent of the cash on them,
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: fifty two percent of the tickets on Vancouver. Yeah, I
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: don't know what else to say about that game. The
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: money is saying Saint Louis in that game. It's a
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: difficult read. Then we have an ABC TV game at
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: night eight pm Eastern. My Boston Bruins are playing at Detroit.
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: Hear Bruins. They have a huge home road split where
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: they're really good at home and they're not good on
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: the road. Last couple of road games, they're pretty competitive,
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: though they went to overtime in both of them. They're
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: coming up that crushing of Winnipeg at home for the Bruins,
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: Bruins again. They're really good at home though, single road game,
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: single road, single game road trip. I can't even talk
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: going to Detroit, hear. I don't really think they're gonna
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: overlook Detroit though they're having a good season. This is
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: an original six matchup, if that matters. Two of the
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: six teams man the Ogs, Detroit coming off playing another
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: one of those teams beating Montreal that was a good win.
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: Staying at home for this one. This is a difficult
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: read in this one. The money's coming in on Detroit.
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: They're minus won twenty five sixty percent of ticket seventy
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: two percent of the cash on Detroit. Of course, you
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: got to take these percentages with a little bit of
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: a grain of salt in the morning too, because they
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: might change throughout the day. I don't have a strong
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: opinion on this game either though, like I think Detroit,
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: you know, coming off a bigger win, you know, could
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: be kind of more of an iffy spot. But I
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: really don't like the Bruins on the road. So you know,
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: the money is saying Detroit, so do with that information
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: what you want. And then we have Tampa Bay at
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: Edmonton to finish it off pretty good game here, one
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: of the better games of the day. Bruins Red Wings
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: is not a horrible game either though, so not the
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: worst game they could have put on TV there. Tampa,
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: they just beat Vancouver on the road, so they're undefeated
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: on the road trips so far. But Edmonton is a
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: step up in class from Seattle and Vancouver, and Tampa
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: was on a bad stretch up until these two recent wins,
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: and those wins were against pretty unimpressive opponents, so we'll
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: see what they could do against Edmonton here. Edmonton just
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: lost Florida nothing at home to Florida in the Stanley
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: Cup rematch, re rematch whatever. Edmonton did actually beat Florida
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: the first time they played this year, so they got
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: a little bit of revenge. Florida got a little bit
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: of revenge back in that one. I kind of lean
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: towards Edmonton here, man, they're staying at home teams that
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: got shut out at home, and they're staying at home
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: ten to do pretty well in their next game. I
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: think Tampa Bay is really good, but it still kind
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: of remains to be seen what they're gonna be able
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: to do in this one. Having a step back up
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: in class seventy three percent of the tickets around Tampa Bay,
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: fifty five percent of the cash on Edmonton. I do
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: agree with Edmonton in this one. Tampa down to minus
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: one thirty eight on the money line. So that's all
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: the information there for hockey. We're going to NBA and
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: I do the NBA play. I'm gonna give out his
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, is it bad. And it's another one where
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: the market Reid is not agree with. So I'm giving
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: you three plays when the market doesn't agree with me.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: That's awesome. We have an early evening game to start
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: this out. Everybody's gonna want to watch this game, right,
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: it's not even on one of the major TV networks.
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City at Washington. Isn't this one awesome? Guys? This
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: is gonna be the largest road favorite that you'll see
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: in the NBA here because you basically have the worst
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: team in the NBA Washington with a bunch of injuries
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: against the best team in the NBA Oklahoma City. Oklahoma
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: City is like a twenty point favorite here on the road. Man,
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City is on a huge run again here. I've
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: won ten games in a row, you know, I mean,
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: this is a game they could just sleep walk through though, Like,
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: there's no way that I would lay twenty points here
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: on the road, even if it is against Washington. But
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, you have to try to gauge how much
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: effort Washington is gonna give you here. You know, Oklahoma
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: City just blew out Brooklyn on the road. I mean,
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: I don't think you could take anything away from that.
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: They do have Philly and Boston on deck, but it's
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: an injured Philly team, so I don't know how much
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: of a look ahead that might be. Again Washington, they
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: really might not pay much attention to. Washington just got
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: blown out again against Detroit. They did not do well,
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: So Washington not even putting an effort here. It looks like,
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: well maybe they were and they just weren't good enough,
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: But who knows. I mean, you gotta think though, with
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City coming into your place, you will at least
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: try to show something, you know. I mean, this is
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: not a game I would want to touch in any way.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: I think it's almost unbetable. But the thunder and minus
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: twenty one on the road, and they're actually taking money
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: fifty eight percent of the tickets and seventy one percent
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: of the cash no, thank you. I would probably need
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: towards taking the points there, but I would not want
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: to do it Memphis at Charlotte. When I first looked
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: at this game, Memphis just played the Celtics pretty tough
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: last night. Man, Memphis, this is a team where, you know,
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: pretty much all their starters are injured, so they're playing
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: with a bunch of backups. They gave you some good
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: effort in the last couple of games, beating Denver, and
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: then they had the lead against the Celtics for a while,
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: and then Memphis just you know, just didn't have enough
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: and they faded out against a good Celtic team. Celtics were,
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: you know, kind of in a dicey spot there. Celtics
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: won and did not cover Memphis. Now, coming off of that,
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: having to go to Charlotte with no days off. By
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: the way, Memphis is on a back to back that
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: was yesterday, coming off two big games in the last
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: couple of days. I don't like the spot for Memphis here.
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: Man Charlotte. I don't know how much I love Charlotte
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: in the spot either though, because they did just blow
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: out Miami and Orlando and now they're playing Memphis. I mean,
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: It's like, how much are they really going to pay
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: attention to Memphis after all of that? I mean, Charlotte,
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: they actually could, Dude, they're actually playing to get out
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: of the play in right now and get into the
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: playoffs that avoid the play in. How insane is that?
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: I told you, like a couple of months ago that
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: Charlotte to make the playoffs was a really good bet.
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: And they might. I mean, they're gonna They're gonna at
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: least be a playing team, and then you have to
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: you know, they'd have to win the playoffs to get in.
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: But I think they're going to. I think they're gonna
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: be in the playoffs. Playoffs, Lee, let me do it?
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: Why not? You know, playoffs? Don't talk about the playoffs.
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: You kidding me? Playoffs? I just hope we can win
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: a game another game, all right? Yeah? So yeah, Charlotte,
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: you know, coming off some blow out wins, I don't
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: know how much effort they're gonna put it in either.
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: And if you want Charlotte here, you gotta lay a
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: ton of points here. It's crazy to think about Charlotte
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: is a seventeen and a half point favorite in this game.
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: How ridiculous is that and it opened thirteen to half.
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: I don't even know what swung the number like this
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: because I mean the Hornets, I mean, I don't know
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: if they have any significant injury some guy coming back.
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: I have no idea Grizzlies. I mean there we know
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: they're already playing with all backups, so I don't know.
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: It's just crazy to see the Hornets being this big
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: of a favorite. Fifty percent of tickets, fifty one percent
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: of the casual on the Grizzlies. You know, some of
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: the move might have just been because the Grizzlies are
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: on the back to back and maybe it moved after
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: we saw them almost beat the well not really almost
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: beat the Celtics, but the Grizzlies were still within, like,
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: you know, several points and then they cut it to
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: five when it was too late at the end. But
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna be honest, I think I would
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: probably lay the points with the Hornets in that game.
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: It sounds ridiculous. I don't want to do it. I
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: don't want only seventeen and a half with them, but
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: that would probably be my opinion in that one. Embiid, Yeah,
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: he's had more games that he's missed them played probably, Yeah,
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: it's kind of ridiculous. Is that over his whole career though?
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, he's got bad knees, that's
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: for sure. You're gonna tail display. Oh boy. But the Sixers, wait,
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: they removed him from their books. That's insane, dude. I
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: don't even know. Maybe it's it sounds like it's all
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: a scam, to be honest. Uh. Anyway, NBA TV Lakers
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: at Orlando. Uh, the Lakers, dude, they cannot continue this.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: They've won eight games in a row. Again. I'm gonna
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: tell you their defense is really not good. I mean,
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: look at some of these point totals they've allowed during
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: this stretch. They've allowed one seventeen, one oh six, one
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: thirty one twenty five, although in overtime one sixteen, one
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: twenty six. I just don't I don't buy it, man,
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: This Laker defense is still not good enough. They're playing
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: a fourth game in six days right now, all in
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: different cities. Fifth and eight as well, all in different cities.
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: They're coming up beating Denver, Houston twice, Miami now playing Orlando,
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: and they do have Detroit on deck. Orlando's still without Wagner.
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, I know I tried to fade
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: the Lakers once in that mix there. I'm still not
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: buying this run from them. Orlando just got blown out
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: by Charlotte. But look at what Orlando was coming off of.
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: Orlando had played Oklahoma City to within five points the
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: game before that, so they were in a bad spot.
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: Charlotte blew them out. Now I think back at home,
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: only returning home from one game on the road. I
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: like Orlando in this one. Man, La looks too good
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: right now. It would be a by low spot on
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: the Magic and sell very high spot on the Lakers.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: The Lakers are taking the money. I don't agree with it.
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: Fifty seven percent of tickets, eighty four percent of the
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: cash on the Lakers. They're up to three with three
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: with juice here. I don't agree. I would. I would
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: take the points with Orlando here. Yeah, I mean when
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: it when a team is that hot, it just means
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: they're gonna be over valued in the market. Man. Yeah,
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: that's that's just definitely not how I do things. I
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: try to jump in and buy streaks. This is not
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: gonna be a play for me or whatever. But yeah,
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: I mean I lean to Orlando in that when you
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: got Lakers coming off some kind of misleading wins, they
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: look too good right now, Orlando off a horrendous blowout loss.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: That's the way I would lean. Orlando's still without Wagner here,
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: though he's supposed to be back soon. I don't know
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: Cleveland at New Orleans. This line looks ridiculous. Cleveland's is
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: only laying four and a half. It looks so easy
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: to lay the points with the Calves in this one.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: But the oddsmakers have been given the Pelicans respect, like
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: they're not as bad as people think they are. They've
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: been injured throughout the season. Fifty six percent of the
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: tickets are on the Calves, sixty nine percent of the
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: cash on the Pelicans, so the money is indicating on
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: the Pelicans. Now. First of all, I mean, I looked
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: at this line and I'm like, somebody's got to be
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: injured for the Calves. There's no way that four and
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: a half is what it would be otherwise. And uh,
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell is on the injury report, so I'm guessing
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: that's why I'm guessing. It kind of means that he's
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: probably not gonna play, although he has an eye injury.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know what the deal is with that he's questionable,
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: but to me, that line seems to indicate he's not playing.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: If it does turn out that he is gonna play,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: I think that line is going to go up on Cleveland.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: As far as Cleveland spot here, they've won two games
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: in a row, but they beat Milwaukee and Chicago. I mean,
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: that's not a big deal. Now they're going to New Orleans.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: They do over Orlando on deck. They did just lose
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: to Orlando not that long ago, so maybe a little
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: bit of a look ahead there. Cleveland didn't do that
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: well against Chicago, though, so you know when a favorite
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: like Cleveland doesn't do that well against a bad team
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: like Chicago, sometimes they will bounce back. New Orleans is
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: coming off two good wins against the Clippers. Clippers not
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: a bad team. I don't think New Orleans is gonna
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: overlook Cleveland. Though this is a difficult read for me.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: I don't have a good opinion on this at all.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: I believe Mitchell has already been out for one or
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: two games, so it's not an injured player theory spot
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: for the Cavs. Like I talk about that when your
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: star player goes down, you want to look to play
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: on that team in the first game because you get
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: line value and the team usually steps up their game.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: But when he's been out for a couple of games already,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: I think you don't get that type of situation anymore.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna really, I don't know. I don't really
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: want to disagree with a market read like this. It's
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: indicating on the Pelicans, but we're staying away from it. Yeah,
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: low with the street, we're buying low. That's usually what
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: I like to do. Pink guy from Eating Ass, is
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: that what he does? I don't know. Maybe it's Lebron's
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: mom's I don't know, man, just like Delonte West used
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: to do. Whatever happened Delonte Man, former Boston Celtic Delonte West,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: who also slept with Lebron's mother. If you didn't know
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: that that was a that was a recurring joke I
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: used to I used to submit to the Toucher and Rich.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: They had a male bag on on local radio here.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: They were like the Morning Radio, one of the popular
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: radio shows, and they talked a lot about sports, So
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: they wound up on the sports station. But they would
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: have a mailbag segment, and I would always submit mail
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: bags as Delante West and it would be like talking
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: about Lebron's mom and stuff. That was one of the
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: bits that I had going on for a while there.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: They usually read mine. I did that like several times.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: All right, yes, correct, Delante Delante man, Dude, I think
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: he's like probably, I think he's like homeless now or something.
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: Somebody needs to go help Delante Maya or excuse a
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: Golden State at Atlanta. This is a kind of an
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: interesting one where we have the trade components here potentially
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: playing each other if any of them are even healthy.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Porzingis was on Atlanta, now he's on
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: Golden State. You got a Kaminga I think went from
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: Golden State to Atlanta. You know, crazy stuff going on here.
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: But they both might not play. He who knows. They're
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: both always on the injury report. Golden State just lost
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: to Detroit yesterday. They're in a very rare spot where
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: they're actually playing a fifth game in seven days, all
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: in different cities, and you know, I don't like that.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: That's a rare phenomenon in the NBA. They're also playing
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: a six game in nine days, all in different cities,
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 1: so the travel for Golden State is not good here.
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: It could catch up to them on the back to
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: back here too. So Atlanta, dude, Atlanta keeps lucking out
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: with some of these spots that they're getting here. But
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: I don't like the spot for Atlanta because they just
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: lost their win streak finally, they'd won eleven games in
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: a row. They lost to Houston yesterday. They're on a
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: back to back, they're coming home from a road trip.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: They're playing a third game in four days, all in
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: different cities. They only went to Texas for two games.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: But still, I don't love the spot for Atlanta here
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: because when a team loses a long win streak like that,
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: a lot of times that will be a hangover and
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: it'll hang them over into the next game. I don't
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: love it, man. I think what I would do in
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: this game is I would play the over. And the
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: money looks like it does agree with me here fifty
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: nine percent of tickets, eighty five percent of the cash
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: on the over. It's up to two twenty nine, which
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: is a pretty reasonable total. To be honest. Don't know
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: who's playing in this game. I don't know if it
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: matters really, I think with both teams being in very
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: questionable spots, defenses can be tired because they're both on
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: back to backs. Over would be what I would do here.
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: As far as the side, the Hawks are minus ten
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: and a half now, up from six, so I don't
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: know what's going on with that. I don't know if
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: the Hawks even have one player that would drive the
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: line up four points. I don't know what's going on
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: with that. Maybe it's just because the Warriors are in
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: that dreaded fifth and seven situation, playing five games in
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: seven days. I don't know. Eighty four percent of the tickets,
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: ninety six percent of the cash on the Hawks money
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: is coming in on the Hawks. For what that's worth,
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna stay off of it. Of course, I don't
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: want anything to do with the game. But again, I
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: think my preference in that game would be to go
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: over and avoid the side and that one. I don't
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: have a good opinion on the side at all. The
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: money looks like it's sort of on the Hawks there.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: But you heard my reasoning for not liking the Hawks there.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: But I don't like Golden State either there. Miami at Houston,
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: Miami just lost to the Lakers. They're on a three
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: game losing streak, losing to three teams that are probably
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: gonna be in the playoffs. I mean Orlando and the
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: Lakers definitely will be. Charlotte I think is going to
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: make it as well. So you know, I'm not gonna
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: knock Miami too much for all that. I think out
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: of Bio missed at least one of those games. He
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: might have missed two. Yeah, I think out of Bio
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: missed two of those games. He came back and they
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: lost to the Lakers anyway. But you know, I talk
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: about the reverse injured player spot a lot. When your
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: star player comes back, a lot of times the team will,
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: you know, will have to readjust him being back, and
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: they won't put in as good of an effort as
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: you expect, you know. So that happened in that game.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: Maybe they'll play better here going out of the road
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: to face Houston. They're not gonna overlook Houston here. Houston
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: just crushed Atlanta. Now, you know, I don't think Houston
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: is really gonna overlook Miami either, But they aren't a
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: back to back Houston played yesterday. But at least for them,
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: they're staying at home they only had one day off
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: prior to that. Though. This is a difficult call too.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: The money's coming in on the heat. I think I
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: will probably agree with the heat there rockets down to
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: two here, fifty eight percent of the tickets on them,
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: fifty three percent of the money on the heat. So yeah,
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: I'll slightly agree with the heat there. I know we
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: still haven't gotten to my play yet. I'm telling you
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: it's an ugly one. You might be able to figure
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: it out. Indiana at San Antonio. This is not it either, Indiana.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: We don't know what we're gonna get out of Indiana here, Man, Like,
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: what are you gonna get for effort out of this team?
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: They lost fifteen straight games now Indiana has lost. Don't
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 1: know how much effort you're gonna get out of them here.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: Maybe they will put an effort though, because they've had
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: a couple of days off, they get to play one
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: of the top teams in the NBA, San Antonio. Maybe
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: you will get an effort out of them for a
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: game here. San Antonio is coming off barely. Getting by
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: Phoenix is a big favorite though, and it's a good
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: win against the team that's gonna be in the playoffs Phoenix.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: But you know, I talk about this when a team
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: like San Antonio is a big favorite and they barely win.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: They were nine and a half point favorites and they
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: just got by a lot of times, they will show
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: up in the next game and be focused. But there
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: is the chance they don't take Indiana seriously and they
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: do up Miami on deck to start a road trip,
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: which is kind of a bigger game. So I don't
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: like this game at all. The Spurs are minus nineteen
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: here large number, of course, fifty percent of tickets on them,
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: fifty percent of the cash on the Pacers, so act accordingly.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: I would say the market read the money right now
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: is on Indiana for what that's worth. Is that true?
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: West robs somebody for twenty three dollars and got arrested.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: Maybe I heard about that. I don't know. I'm pretty
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: sure he's homeless, man, which you know that'll cover up.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: You remember he had that like weird like birthmark on
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: his face or whatever. Maybe if he's homeless, maybe his
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: whole face will get like, you know, gunked up so
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: you won't see it anymore. I don't know. I don't know, man,
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know what to say. Dude. Delante West, oh man, dude,
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: I remember him playing in college when he was on
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: Saint Joe's. Uh. Saint Joe's was like one of the
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: top teams in the country. They had Delantay West and
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: they had oh my god, who else was on that
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: some other guy that made the NBA was on that team.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember. That team was really awesome, man,
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: but they just weren't good enough to like they were
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: one of those teams where they were like super good
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: from like a small conference and people were like, this
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: team is like elite, they're like number one in the country.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: But I'm like, they're not gonna win at all because
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: they're from a power conference, you know what I mean.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: So you know, but that was back before I was
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: really handicapping sports and whatever. So I don't know, but
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: I kind of remember that tournament. I think I might
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: have been a freshman in college when that tournament happened.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: I remember, I think I don't know, there was one
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: big like one seed that got knocked out in that one.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: I think I want to say it was Stanford lost
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: to like Alabama or something, was like a huge upset
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 1: in that tournament. I forget. I don't remember, man, don't
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: remember who won the whole thing either. I want to
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: say it was like I almost want to say it
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: was like Illinois or something, because they were really good
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: around that time too. I don't know. Maybe I'm getting
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: it all mixed up. I didn't pay enough attention at
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: that point anyway. Clippers at Dallas, Clippers just lost twice
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: to the Pelicans. You can kind of figure out why
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: they lost the first time because they were coming off
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: of a big game against San Antonio. The second game,
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe a little bit more questionable, like how
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: did they lose to the Pelicans twice? I don't know, man,
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 1: But coming off of all that, maybe you'll get an
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: effort out of them. Problem is, they're playing a fourth
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: game in six days now, all in different cities, which
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: is not easy to do. I still think you're gonna
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: get effort out of them, though. I mean, the Clippers
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 1: are still fighting to avoid the play in as well here,
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: so there is still some motivation for the Clippers here.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: Dallas is just kind of playing out the stretch. I mean,
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: maybe if they care about playing spoiler against the Clippers.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but Dallas is more rested here. They're
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: staying at home, they've had two days off. They lost
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: by fifteen to Atlanta in their last game, and they
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: lost by double digits to New Orleans before that on
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: the road. So both teams, you know, not playing well
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: against New Orleans recently. Clippers are a seven point favorite.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: It looks like the money is coming in on Dallas
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: eighty percent of tickets, ninety nine percent of the cash
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: on the MAVs. I wouldn't you know. I don't think
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: that percentage is accurate, but I think I would agree
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: with probably taking the points in that one. Clippers probably
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: just laying a little bit too much on the road there,
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: especially given that the Mavericks do have a travel and
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: rest edge there. Philadelphia at Utah. Of course, Philadelphia basically
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: has nobody playing for them right now. They're still without
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: George who's suspended, and Beat is hurt, Maxis oubre is hurt.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: This Philadelphia team still got the job done against the Kings.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: Sorry to Jeffrey because I was chiding him for having
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: having money on the Sixers in that game. Dude, I
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: was right about that game too, though. I said, if
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 1: you were gonna play that game. I said, over made
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: the most sense in that game. That's what I said.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: That was in my Twitter chat where I said that.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: By the way, if you want to get into that,
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: we have a subscriber's chat on Twitter with only like
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: two dudes. It's it's me and three other dudes and
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: there right now, including Jeffrey who hopefully he comes back
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: to the show here. Man. But I'm too much of
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: an ass. Maybe I don't know. I chied people too
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: much for some of their plays that they make, not
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: doing I'm trying to be better at that, all right.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: But I was correct about the over Jeffrey was correct
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: about Philly, so we were both right. So there you go.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: That was a game where it's like, how do you
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: even know what you're gonna get in that game? Right?
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: Like on the side Philly and the Kings Kings basically
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: have nobody playing for them either. That's why I said over,
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 1: because you get these games that are basically like gonna
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: be a screen image, you know what I mean, with
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: all backups playing a lot of times, you'll get some
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: value on the over there because the sense is, oh,
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: nobody's playing, so who's gonna score? Right? But I'm like no,
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: but what happens is usually the teams just don't get
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 1: really intense on deepense. You know. Anyway, Philly's coming up
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: that win over Sacramento, easy win. They're going into elevation
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: to play Utah here though not that easy to do,
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: and they got Oklahoma City on deck, so could be
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: a potential look ahead there. Utah just ended a losing
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 1: streak by beating the box, and you know, I like
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 1: that when a team loses. When the team ends a
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: losing streak, a lot of times they will carry that
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: new momentum forward and play better in that next game.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: They're playing a third game in four days, but they
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: are at least staying at home here. They blew out
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: Milwaukee in real quick revenge, so you know there is
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 1: that it was recent revenge there, so you know, I
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: guess there is a little bit of a warrior. They're
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 1: gonna be feeling really good about themselves. But I think
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: I like Utah in this one. I got to pay
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: attention to Utah's injuries to mostly marking him, but he
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 1: is still out. I don't even know if he's gonna
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 1: come back. Man, Why would they bring him back when
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: they're not going anywhere this year. He's probably not gonna
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: play again this year, but I would lean towards the
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: Jazz in this one. Sixers are laying six here, the
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: Sixers with nobody playing, they're laying six. Oh my god. Jazz.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: Of course they have a lot of injury too. Hey,
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: my man, Ace Bailey, who I said was one of
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: the best players in the draft class this year. He
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: did really well. Last night. He put up like thirty three.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: Or last game for the Jazz, he put up like
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: thirty three. I got his jersey. So let's go, man,
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: Let's go Ace. Fifty four percent of ticket, sixty percent
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: of the cash on the Jazz. The money is coming
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: in on the Jazz. I agree with that one that
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: leaves the last game here an NBA TV, and you
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: know this has to be my play. I hate Reddit, dude, Yeah,
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 1: I can't go on Reddit. I was a mod on
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: a couple of subreddits, one being a red Sox one,
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: but I think they probably removed me as a mod
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 1: because I just became inactive pretty much. And then the
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: other one was my one of my college roommates and
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: I we saw the you know, first world problems, second
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: world problems, third world problems, and there's all these levels
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: of abstraction that got all the way up to like
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: eighth world problems, and it was like this this subreddit
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: that's just so like I don't even know what the
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 1: word is I'm looking for. Like the subreddit's become so
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: like incoherent at that level, like you don't even know
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: what's going on anymore. I was like, let's make like
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: the most incoherent version of this that we can make.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: Let's take it to this level of abstraction that makes
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: so little sense that we will not allow any posts
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: that have like any language in them at all. Like
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 1: the only posts that we're allowing or posts that are
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: legitimately completely incoherent. And I made the CSS so bad
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: that you can't even like figure out where like how
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: to even post on, Like you can't even see the
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: links and whatever, and the whole background is like an
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: optical illusion that almost like makes you high. I think
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: it's it's infinite world problems. Yeah, but now I'm I'm
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: you know, doxing myself probably with that. But I hate Reddit, dude,
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: I haven't been on there in so long. Yeah, I
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 1: can't stand the people on Reddit. It's not skits o though,
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: because it's like, uh, it's literally just you have to
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 1: post something that's at such a level of abstraction that
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: it's you know, like you know what I mean that
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: a human mind cannot comprehend it basically pretty much. All right,
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 1: all right, Milwaukee and Phoenix here. Obviously this is my play.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: This is uh oh man, this is ugly. We're gonna
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: be on Milwaukee plus eleven and a half. I'll give
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 1: you another underdog here. This is Yeah. I know it
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: sounds bad, it looks bad. We're getting a lot of
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: points here though, and it's a low total for the
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: NBA in two nineteen, you know, So I do like
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: taking points when you think there's gonna be less scoring
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 1: in a game. Although the money is coming in on
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: the over in this one sixty two percent of the tickets,
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: it's seventy five percent of the cash on the suns.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: So I am fading the market read in this one.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: But I like the spot here, man. I think it's
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 1: a bad spot for Phoenix because one thing I already
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 1: mentioned earlier when I talked about San Antonio, Phoenix just
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: almost beat San Antonio. Man, they just went into San
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: Antonio and lost by one Phoenix, really close call. Is
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: a big underdog against one of the best teams in
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 1: the NBA. Huge game for Phoenix, So I think that
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: puts them in a hangover spot coming off of that.
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 1: To make matters worse, they're playing a fourth game in
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: six days, all in different cities, and on top of
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: all that, they're returning home from a road trip that
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: took them as far as Toronto and Boston. They started
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: the road trip on the tenth so they've been on
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 1: the road for a double day amount of days. And
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 1: you know, I talk about this when you return on
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: from a road trip a lot of times you're distracted.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 1: You got to get back to home life, whatever. And
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 1: they already beat Milwaukee on the road during the road trip.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: That was the first game on the road trip. They
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 1: beat Milwaukee in Milwaukee, which I'm assuming was without Yannis,
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 1: But Yannis is also heard again, so he's not playing
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: in this game either. So but it's still kind of
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: like a quick revenge for Milwaukee. But I think more
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: so what the case is is that Phoenix is just
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: gonna overlook Milwaukee because they beat Milwaukee on the road
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 1: and they have Toronto up next, and oh yeah, Phoenix
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 1: happen to lose at Toronto during that road trip as well,
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: so they might look ahead to that game a little
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: bit and they have Denver on deck after that. Now, yes,
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: I know this is a TV game for Phoenix, so
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: that might motivate you a little bit more. But I
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: think the spot is just too horrible for them. Man
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: from Milwaukee, I think you got to get an effort
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: out of Milwaukee here. Man, They're coming up of a really,
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: really bad loss in Utah. They got absolutely embarrassed by
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: thirty something points against Utah. I think if that happens
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: you're playing a Phoenix team, it's pretty good and just
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 1: beat you. You're gonna show up for this game. And
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: what we see is Milwaukee is putting in some effort.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 1: Although I know you know that was without Yannis. Let's
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: think about this though. Look at the game that Milwaukee
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: played before that. It was the first game without Yanis
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: again and they played Cleveland within seven points. That was
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 1: actually a good effort out of Milwaukee. And that one
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: that was the injured player theory spot that we talked about.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: Milwaukee had won the last game with Yannis in there
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 1: against Indiana. He got hurt. They stepped up their level
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: of intensity for a big game against Cleveland. Then they
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: just had nothing left in the next game. So I
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: think you can explain why they were so bad against
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: Utah because they had to go all the way out
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: into elevation off a big game against Cleveland, second game
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 1: without Yanis. But now I think you kind of enter
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: that spot where it's just kind of a normal handicap
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: now where they're used to being without Yannis again. You know,
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: like I said, he did not play in that game
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: against Phoenix. I think his first game where he came
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: back was against Miami. So yeah, I guess do with
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: all that information what you want to. But yeah, I
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: like Milwaukee here. I think you can kind of explain
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: why they were so bad in that Utah game, and
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 1: I think it was bad enough that you're gonna get
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: a better effort out of them here. So that's what
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: we're going with here. We will go with Milwaukee here. Yes,
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: there is a little bit of a concern that they're
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: playing what is this, five games in the last eight days,
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 1: but you know, a couple of them in the middle
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: we're at home, so I'm not quite as worried about that.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: We'll be on the box even though the money is
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: saying otherwise. There and that's it, man, that's the show
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: for today. The plays one more time. We're laying two
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: double digit favorites in the tournament Duke minus the points,
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: Arkansas minus the points. But you know I gave you
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: the reasoning why Hockey we're grabbing an underdog that I love.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: The spot there for the Winnipeg Jets, we're doing that.
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: And then NBA we're taking an ugly underdog there, Milwaukee
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: plus the points. Those are my four plays today. Let's
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 1: have a good one. Let's have a good Saturday today.
• 1:21:00
