13
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 2: morning Jeff, Good morning, crack morning. Tell you what we

14
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 2: got a game seven this evening. How can you be

15
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:46,560
Speaker 2: in a bad mood? And it's the ultimate zigzag spot.

16
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 2: After Game six, the Pacers just walloped Oka. See OKC

17
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: was awful. Bet some of the numbers from the game.

18
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 2: They scored ninety one points. That's the fewest they scored

19
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 2: all season long. You look at the Batman and Robin

20
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 2: duo with SGA and Jalen Williams, SGA had four times

21
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 2: as many turnovers as assists. He had eight turnovers in

22
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 2: Game six, only two assists. And then Jalen Williams, who

23
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 2: was mister Game five, he dropped forty points in Game five.

24
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 2: He was minus forty in the plus minus category in

25
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 2: Game six. That's the lowest in a finals game since

26
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,759
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety six. That's the play by play era. That's

27
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 2: the lowest to be minus forty and plus minus. So

28
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 2: I'm expecting a major bounce back, Jeff, I know you

29
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 2: expect Oka See to start fast. Yeah, it's gonna be

30
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,479
Speaker 2: a lot for the Pacers initially in this one.

31
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 3: The NBA postseason has kind of crushed my soul. We've

32
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 3: talked about this last week. I don't think I like

33
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 3: a wager more the entire post in the Okoahoma City

34
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 3: first quarter today, it's minus three and a half right

35
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 3: now at minus one oh two at BETMGM. I'm waiting

36
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 3: to seef it goes to three. I'm sort of curious

37
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 3: if it does, so I'm kind of waiting it out

38
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 3: a little bit here. That was Oklahoma City's worst offensive

39
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,399
Speaker 3: rated game of the season. It was bad, and we

40
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 3: know that besides just the numbers right, the three and

41
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 3: a half, that these are professionals right with emotions, and

42
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 3: they are the best team in the NBA, even though

43
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 3: it is three to three right now in the NBA Finals,

44
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 3: And they're prideful, and they've heard for days now about

45
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 3: their performance in Game six. They've watched a film, they've

46
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 3: talked to their coach, their family members have called them,

47
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 3: like they all know what happened in Game six. They're

48
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 3: going back home today. If we don't see Oklahoma City

49
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,679
Speaker 3: play their best quarter of basketball the entire postseason, start

50
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 3: the game. They're not ready for Game seven. They're just not.

51
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 3: And I think they will play their best basketball. You know,

52
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 3: in Game six it got out of hand. Obviously, indianimated

53
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 3: a ton of shots. Okay, so you could make no shots, Guys,

54
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 3: I think wilked a little bit in the pressure. You know, guy,

55
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 3: you know, I'm sure Chet Holmgren is listening right now.

56
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 3: You know, it's okay to go for the rebound that

57
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 3: isn't like correctly coming to you. You can jump and like

58
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 3: propel your body upwards to get a rebound that doesn't

59
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 3: come to you. You know, like you can, you know,

60
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 3: we we can, we can find ways to score a

61
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 3: little bit more like there's just and I think okay

62
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 3: See was a little bit deeked out by by Halibert.

63
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 3: I thought he wasn't going to play, and he looked

64
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 3: sort of healthy. Their entire defensive game plan was off,

65
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 3: was out, and how they've defended Hollyburn in Game four

66
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 3: and five where they sort of rushed him early in

67
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: the possession. They didn't do that again. So there's just

68
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 3: a lot of room for improvement, I think for Okayce

69
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 3: in this game. And if you like zig zag wagering,

70
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 3: I got a lot. I have to pare down my menu.

71
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 3: I feel like I can't bet all of them that

72
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 3: I like. I'll probably give out all of them at

73
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 3: some point. Just my thoughts on all these these props.

74
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 3: And also, you know, it's a great day where you

75
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 3: can wager our Kaale Clark to be over her points,

76
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 3: rebounds and assist and we can do that and cracked

77
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 3: wage on the NBA Finals and maybe Game two College

78
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 3: World Series Coastal Carolina money line. There's a lot of

79
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 3: action today on the mediu Yeah.

80
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 4: Good morning everyone, you know, and Jeff, there is some

81
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 4: threes out there here in Vegas. Multiple shops have minus

82
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 4: three minus a dollar ten minus three and a half

83
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 4: minus zero two is basically minus three minus ten minus fifteen,

84
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 4: so I'm sure you'll be able to find your three

85
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 4: there in the first quarter. At this point, no one

86
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 4: really should doubt this Pacers team anymore though. They've shown

87
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 4: that they were the best team in the East the

88
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 4: last two months and can stand toe to toe you

89
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 4: know with this you know, this Thunder team and well

90
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 4: coached and really played team basketball on both sides of

91
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 4: the floor. Tonight should be a great game. I know,

92
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 4: Okay sees a seven point seven and a half point five,

93
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 4: but I would not be shocked on any outcome. These

94
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 4: sevens are usually about great defense, and both both of

95
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 4: these teams can you know, they can really lock it

96
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 4: down here. The Thunder are gonna have to hit their

97
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 4: open threes if they want to win, and the Pacers

98
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 4: will have to create a lot of turnovers if they

99
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 4: want to win. So it's been almost a decade since

100
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 4: we got a Game seven in the NBA files Finals,

101
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 4: so everyone should be excited to watch this one tonight.

102
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 4: I was kind of surprised at how many days in

103
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 4: between uh NBA Final here, Like what what goes through

104
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,359
Speaker 4: people's mind, players talking about players and even coaches and

105
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,160
Speaker 4: stuff leading.

106
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 3: Up to that.

107
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 4: You have, you have, you know, a couple of days off,

108
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 4: and you know what what happens in between, So anything, No,

109
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 4: this game opened up eight and a half pretty solid

110
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 4: and quickly went down to like I said, seven and

111
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 4: a half and even now sevens of course, and uh

112
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 4: bet mgm, I'm the only sports book in the world

113
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 4: minus six and a half, minus eighteen.

114
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 3: I will say this is the lowest number for an

115
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 3: Oklahoma City home game this postseason. They have not been

116
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,919
Speaker 3: this low of a favorite. I think if you like

117
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 3: Oklahoma City, you take them now, and then if you

118
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 3: like Indiana, you wait. I think you'll get a much

119
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 3: better number in game on.

120
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 4: Indiana, I get public money comes is going to come

121
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 4: in before game time, I would.

122
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: I think just a strong start for a case.

123
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, I think that's the reason why if okay

124
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 3: See gets up even like last game was eight to

125
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 3: two early on like the number, you get it, but

126
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 3: immediately a better number for Indiana. So I just feel

127
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 3: very very strongly the Oklahoma City is gonna start fast.

128
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 3: Otherwise they're just not the team I thought they were.

129
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 3: Which is certainly possible. I mean, it's certainly possible that

130
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 3: Okay See is not what we thought they were. But look, Indiana,

131
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 3: I mean me, the three wins for okay Seeing this

132
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 3: series have been by seven, sixteen, and what like twelve.

133
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 3: I mean, so they've covered this number when they've won.

134
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 3: If if he hits six and a half. So but yeah,

135
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 3: I mean Indiana should not be out of lost enough

136
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 3: money on in the end of this postseason.

137
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 2: Well, I just I think going back to crack with

138
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 2: you're talking about the days off in between think about

139
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: how that impacts Halliburton with the strained calf, Like that's

140
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 2: helped him quite a bit, get all all sorts of

141
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 2: you know, a treatment on that area where he detailed it.

142
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 2: He's multiple trips to the hyperbaric chamber, even including on

143
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 2: game day in Game six, the last game he was there.

144
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 2: He normally doesn't do it on game day, but he

145
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 2: did that time. I think back to Aaron Gordon of

146
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 2: the Nuggets, remember when he went on that. Yeah, kind

147
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 2: of like that plea to have more days off in

148
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 2: between games, and it certainly impacted Halliburton. There's no doubt

149
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 2: about it. Because the way you saw him play in

150
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 2: Game five. He strained his calf in that game, only

151
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: scored four points, didn't hit a field goal in that game,

152
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 2: and did look a lot better the last game in

153
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 2: Game six, So that's helped him out quite a bit.

154
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 2: And it's funny, too, Crack you talk about doubting the Pacers.

155
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 2: It's weird. They remind me so much of a college

156
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 2: football team. They remind me of the twenty fourteen Ohio

157
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 2: State Buck guys. And I halfway hate to bring this

158
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 2: up because they eventually want a title against your ducks there. Jeff, Yeah, sorry,

159
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 2: But the comparison that I see is that, just like

160
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 2: the Pacers, what we did with Ohio State was we

161
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 2: would gush about their latest win and then doubt them

162
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 2: immediately in the next game, and they would prove us

163
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 2: wrong each step of the way, like, wow, great big

164
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 2: ten performance against Wisconsin fifty nine to nothing, But are

165
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 2: they really gonna beat Alabama? And then they'd beat like wow,

166
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 2: they beat Alabama, Are they really gonna beat Oregon? And

167
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 2: they did each step of the way. That's how I

168
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 2: feel about the Pacers. Where right now, a lot of

169
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 2: people look at Game six, Wow, what a game by

170
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 2: the Pacers. Look at what they've done this entire playoff.

171
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: You know, run yata.

172
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 5: Yeah.

173
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 2: Game seven, push comes to shove. Who are you going with?

174
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 2: I gotta go Okay, see right, you're right back to

175
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,319
Speaker 2: doubting them, So maybe I'll I'll take the bait again.

176
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 2: I love OKAC in this matchup for numerous reasons. One

177
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 2: of the reasons is, look at them at home. Yeah,

178
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 2: so they're plus two forty seven at home in the playoffs,

179
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 2: they're minus sixty seven point differential on the road. There

180
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 2: hasn't been a team in the playoffs that has been

181
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 2: plus two hundred point differential at home. Okaysee's plus two

182
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: forty seven. So it might sound really weird, but one

183
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 2: of the main reasons I love OKAC in this matchup

184
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,319
Speaker 2: is because of how dominant Indiana was in Game six.

185
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 2: That sounds twisted and strange, but if you subscribe to

186
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 2: the zigzag approach and it hits numerous times, this is

187
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 2: a great zigzag spot.

188
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 3: The zigzact thing works, man, and it's it's I know,

189
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 3: it's maybe square sometimes, but it does right. I mean,

190
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 3: so for those who might be new to this exact approach, Basically,

191
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,599
Speaker 3: if one if a thing happens in one game that

192
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 3: is sort of extraordinary and not like it should, then

193
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 3: the next game you bet the opposite direction essentially. So

194
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 3: for example, right like Indiana wins in a blowout, which

195
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 3: is not happen very often. Okay, see this season. The

196
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 3: next game, especially euring the game, it's going to be better.

197
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 3: Same with the player props right, where a player either

198
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 3: gets so many points that it doesn't make sense and

199
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 3: you have to fade them the next game, or vice versa.

200
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 3: And then we'll have a spot with a with a

201
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 3: with a with a Thunder player that I'm betting there

202
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 3: over today because they've been bad for two straight games.

203
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 3: Unlike them, I'm fading you know, another play now. Sometimes

204
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 3: I will say, though Brian, like sometimes like a TJ. McConnell,

205
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 3: you know, you're like, oh, he's not gonna do that again,

206
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: but I think he's sort of proven, like that's what

207
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 3: he's going to do in this series. Right, that's a

208
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 3: little different between just like a sort of total not domination,

209
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 3: but just so a force. He's been plus with Hollie

210
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 3: burn a little beat up. He's getting more minutes, right,

211
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 3: He's like he's getting more of the offense versus you

212
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 3: got like like Obi top and just hitting a bunch

213
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 3: of threes in a game. You're like, it's not gonna happen.

214
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 3: In game seven on the road, is Obi topp I'm

215
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 3: gonna have seventeen points. I I'll bet against it, and

216
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 3: then two and I'll say this, like this Vegas is

217
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 3: not fooled by the zig zag strategy. You know, Obi

218
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 3: Topins had three straight games of it's like his numbers

219
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 3: ten and a half today. Look at they that they're

220
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 3: not They're not They're not fooled by I. You know, well, sorry,

221
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 3: with one more point to illustrate this, Brian last h

222
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 3: last game. I took Wiggins under five and a half

223
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 3: points because he had four to three pointers in Game

224
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 3: five and then with five points like that like that,

225
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 3: like that's it's ugly. Under five and a half, You're like,

226
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 3: that's two three pointers. He ended with five and he

227
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 3: played like twenty five minutes because he played most of

228
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter in a blowout. Those zig zag spots

229
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 3: work a lot in the NBA Finals, and so I

230
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 3: keep playing them.

231
00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, well we're gonna have to agree to disagree here, guys.

232
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 4: Uh pacers, huh correc no not that the zig zag theory.

233
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 4: This is just small term variants. It's what a lot

234
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 4: of people talk about and stuff. And mathematically I think

235
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 4: it means nothing. It's like trends going back in, you know,

236
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 4: over different periods and time. And I'm just not a

237
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 4: believer in any zigzag. Mathematically it means absolutely not. The

238
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 4: Vegas doesn't respect and I say Vegas. People think that

239
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 4: it's funny. A lot of people think the line is

240
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 4: made in Las Vegas. It's actually not. But it's made

241
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 4: actually in far places all shore, and everyone copies that line.

242
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 4: It just uh, they don't subscribe to that theory of zigzag.

243
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 2: But crack, don't you don't you subscribe to regression.

244
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 3: To the mean.

245
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 4: I mean, maybe your aggression to the mean after every game.

246
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 4: But this is this is a very efficient market. Though,

247
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 4: even when the line comes up to come up at

248
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 4: eight and a half and go down to seven ere

249
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 4: let's let's use MGM's line six and a half minus eighteen.

250
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 4: I was shocked to see an NBA Finals Game seven

251
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 4: move literally two points point and a half, let's call it.

252
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 4: That's actually pretty surprised. But you guys did say something

253
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 4: absolutely correct, even though it didn't move that way. I

254
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 4: expect a lot of public money tonight to come in on.

255
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 4: Ok see in this line to go back up. So

256
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 4: what Jeff said there's probably correct. If you're gonna bet

257
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 4: the game, if you didn't grab that early eight and

258
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 4: a half, well then you don't want to bet it

259
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 4: right now. You maybe bet it a couple of minutes

260
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 4: before the game time or later on. But you know,

261
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 4: because you'll catch you half a point here and there.

262
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 4: It's just, you know, I'm an old school way and

263
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 4: I don't subscribe to anything just coincidentally zig zagging back

264
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 4: and forth. However, I know you're right, there is sometimes

265
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 4: that regression to the meaning just for conversations sake care between.

266
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 4: You know, some different ways to handicap games, and you

267
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 4: know NBA side. I talked about it on another show

268
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 4: I do a month ago, and I took some took

269
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 4: a little bit of heat. But I'll stand by what

270
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 4: I say by when I say what I'm what I said.

271
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 4: I have been around some of the sharpest gambling syndicates,

272
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 4: if not thus sharping gambling syndicate in the entire world,

273
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 4: for the last twenty five plus years, and I just

274
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 4: know that they don't mess with NBA sides, very little

275
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 4: with NFL sides too, But NBA sides very very tough

276
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 4: to beat. Totals of course, first half, second half, totals,

277
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 4: proposition bets, player props, but sides are that tough to beat.

278
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 4: So but however, I know everyone's got to have action.

279
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 4: Game seven NBA Sunday night.

280
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 2: Oh boy, Yeah, well, I don't know. I just think

281
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 2: it's so similar, like that's fine, cracked. I mean, you

282
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 2: don't have to come on board, And we got room

283
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 2: on the ship if you want to come on board,

284
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 2: but you don't have to.

285
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 3: It's, by the way, not for sides and total. So

286
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 3: it's a I'm I like the okay, see first quarter

287
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 3: just because I like it. Not really a zigzag theory,

288
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 3: but the prop stuff. Man, these these guys, and I

289
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 3: just don't trust. I don't trust road players, Guys on

290
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 3: the road in Game sevens who just came off seventeen

291
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 3: point games.

292
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, I mean, I just we talk about it

293
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 2: in the NFL all the time, right, and maybe you

294
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 2: think it differs a little bit if it's over the

295
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 2: course of a season, But take a team. We'll say

296
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 2: this going into the next season. I guarantee it where

297
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 2: it's like, man, this team was one in seven in

298
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 2: one possession games last season, Like, you're probably gonna see

299
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 2: some in that case, progression to the mean, right, Yeah,

300
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 2: you're You're probably gonna be a little bit better this season.

301
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 2: It happens time and time again. And that's basically a

302
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 2: season zigzag. That is essentially what it is. It's regression

303
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 2: or progression to the mean, and you've seen a lot

304
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 2: in this series. I think last game was a great

305
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 2: zigzag spot for the Pacers because I think it can

306
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 2: apply to the side or the total. But they were

307
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 2: pretty bad in Game five, got waxed pretty good and

308
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 2: then facing elimination with a banged up Halliburton. You know,

309
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 2: maybe you see it too late after the fact, but

310
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 2: that was a great zigzag spot for the Pacers in

311
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 2: Game six. I think it's a great zigzag spot for

312
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 2: the Thunder in Game seven. But if someone doesn't subscribe

313
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: to it, that's fine. There are plenty of approaches, and

314
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 2: I don't subscribe to all of them, but I've gotten

315
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 2: a lot of value out of the zigzag. Man, I'm

316
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 2: gonna hold to it in this one, and not just

317
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 2: with that. With the flip flop thing. I just think Okay,

318
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 2: S's better, I mean, like top to bottom. I think

319
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 2: they're a better team, and they're healthier, you know, with

320
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 2: Halliburton status, so I'm backing them. We're often running. We've

321
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 2: got Bill Krackenberger, professional sports handicapper, Jeff Schwartz, eight year

342
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 2: So we got a couple of speed racers in the

343
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 2: sports world here, Shaduur Sanders of the Browns, Zach Edy

344
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 2: of the Grizzlies. They're doing their speed racer impression. So

345
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 2: Shaudure he got clocked going one oh one in a sixty.

346
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 2: Zach Edy got clocked going one oh one in a

347
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 2: fifty five. Actually, Shaudure has been cited twice this month

348
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 2: for speeding, according to police records. And and look, man,

349
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 2: I think it's a much bigger story with Shadur Sanders.

350
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 2: He's an NFL quarterback who's got a big name from

351
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 2: his college days. Right, it's just going to be a

352
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 2: bigger story. And you go back before the draft, whether

353
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 2: it was correct or not, there was some NFL personnel

354
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 2: evaluators that thought he was unprofessional, thought he was immature.

355
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 2: Whether that's the case or not, that perception exists and

356
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 2: now he's getting busted for speeding a couple of times.

357
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 2: Like plank, quarterback is a decision making position. It's the

358
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 2: ultimate one, and he's showing poor decision making off the

359
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 2: It's just it's not a smart move because look, you're

360
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 2: gonna have critics that are just waiting to pounce. You

361
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 2: have critics that are waiting to say, see what did

362
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 2: I tell you about that guy? And it could take

363
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 2: something like this for them to say that. You don't

364
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,360
Speaker 2: want to prove the critics right. And I thought, I'll

365
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 2: say this real fast, where when I was younger, I

366
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 2: can relate to this bit. When I was younger, I

367
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 2: used to think, if you thought something that was incorrect

368
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 2: about me, well, that's just on you that you don't

369
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 2: have it right. I don't know what to tell you.

370
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: That's how I thought as a young guy. And then

371
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 2: I matured a little bit and I thought, you know what,

372
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 2: I'm giving people reasons to think things that are untrue

373
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 2: about me. Like if you think I'm lazy, I'm not lazy.

374
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 2: But if I wear flip flops to a job interview

375
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,639
Speaker 2: or something, I'm giving you ammunition to think I'm lazy.

376
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 2: So if Shador doesn't want people thinking he's unprofessional or immature.

377
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 2: He can't do things that are unprofessional and immature, and

378
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 2: that's what he's doing right here. So he's got to

379
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 2: clean that up. But I used to think, oh, you

380
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 2: get it wrong, man, that's on you, And then I

381
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 2: realized that's kind of on me. Why you think those things?

382
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 3: So I think the issue for me is quarterback. You know,

383
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 3: your your your judgment is is very important to your success, right,

384
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:27,959
Speaker 3: just like your general mental clarity, your preparation, and you're

385
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 3: in your judgment right, your your character those are important things.

386
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 3: And I'm not talking about sugars In's character here, but

387
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 3: I'm talking his judgment. Right. You know, you you're a

388
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 3: fifth round pick. You get one speeding ticket, okay, I

389
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 3: mean like we all we all speed, Okay, it happens.

390
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 3: We've all had tickets. I'm sure we've all been there before.

391
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 3: I've had I've had a twenty fourteen. I had like

392
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,439
Speaker 3: a ninety five and a sixty five. I was just

393
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,479
Speaker 3: going too fast. I'm on the highway and didn't realize

394
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 3: it and got busted. Didn't happen again, though, And I

395
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 3: think that's what that's the issue right now. Right where

396
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,160
Speaker 3: it happened once. Okay, fine, like everyone makes mistakes, it happens,

397
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 3: but then it happened again, and you're questioning. You're like,

398
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 3: you're you're judgment your quarterback, Like, why is this happening again?

399
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,360
Speaker 3: So that's where I stand. Where you know, you get

400
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 3: judged differently at that position, right, that's I mean, it's

401
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,639
Speaker 3: a premium position in National Football League. You're drafted to

402
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 3: be the you know, eventually you want to be the

403
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 3: franchise leader, the face of the franchise. And again, these

404
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 3: are not He's not drinking and driving. No one got hurt.

405
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, nothing bad happened, Crack, But his judgment,

406
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 3: question mark, what why? Why have Why is this happening

407
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 3: again the one time? Fine, again, we all make mistakes.

408
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 3: Second time. I don't know, man, that that has me

409
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 3: worried about his judgment.

410
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:56,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, excuse me, guys. Yeah, you know, not a good start,

411
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 4: not a good start for standards NFL career. He slipped

412
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 4: to fifth round after being projected as the first picked

413
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 4: earlier this year. Now he's proving all the skeptics right,

414
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 4: making news off the field already. As far as d

415
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 4: I'm a little more surprised by you. You wouldn't expect

416
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 4: to hear any off court news about him. He seems

417
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 4: like a quiet guy who keeps to himself and out

418
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 4: of trouble. And also at seven foot three, you think

419
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 4: you think he might have a personal driver on staff.

420
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 4: And in fact, what all the money these guys are

421
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 4: are getting, why don't they all have personal drivers? Why

422
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 4: do we see any of them in general? Why don't

423
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 4: we see players throughout the year getting a dui or

424
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 4: even a speeding ticket? At this point, I would think

425
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 4: they can, you know, have personal drivers. But then again,

426
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 4: I know it's the thrill of having these sports cars

427
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 4: and money to be able to buy things like that

428
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,120
Speaker 4: and to try things out. And we've all had speeding

429
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 4: I know me. I used to drive from North Jersey

430
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 4: to Atlantic City and it was about an hour and

431
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 4: a half drive and we would try to make it there,

432
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 4: try to beat our record each time. And that drive back,

433
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 4: I'll tell you there's really no speeding on the drive back.

434
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 4: Everyone in the car sleeping, broke, racing home, faking the

435
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 4: tolls with my hand, like there's not even change to

436
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 4: pay the tolls. Boy, I don't miss any of those days.

437
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:29,640
Speaker 3: But I just.

438
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,439
Speaker 4: Remember having my uncle Benny left me a Chrysler New

439
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 4: Yorker four forty four barrel and it was nineteen seventy three.

440
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 4: By the way, I say seventy three of the car

441
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 4: was seventy three, but it was like eighty eight and

442
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 4: ninety when I had this car given to me. It

443
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 4: had twenty three thousand original miles. Uncle Benny had the

444
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 4: plastic on the back seats, never even really used the car.

445
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 4: That was the fastest car. I couldn't believe I had

446
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 4: that thing literally over one hundred many times, really easy

447
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:02,439
Speaker 4: to go over one hundred and that. But as I

448
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 4: got older, you have mature. You said, how dumb is

449
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 4: that driving that fast? I mean, any little thing on

450
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 4: the road, anything you know, you can you can really

451
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,880
Speaker 4: get hurt. So hopefully they do mature, and well we'll

452
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 4: see what happens here. But I know we've all done that.

453
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,880
Speaker 4: I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one

454
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,679
Speaker 4: that was doing that kind of thing. Like Jeff, you

455
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 4: said you had tickets in the nineties and stuff. And

456
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 4: I've been with Brian boy. He's still flying.

457
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:33,199
Speaker 2: All around Vegas. I'll tell you the Grapevine grapevine is

458
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 2: just evil in terms of speeding. You're going down that

459
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,359
Speaker 2: monstrous still you don't even think you're going I gotta

460
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 2: take it at the at the bottom of that one time, like, yes,

461
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,400
Speaker 2: most people have sped, but guess what, most people are

462
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:49,439
Speaker 2: not NFL quarterbacks. Most people are not like under the

463
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,959
Speaker 2: microscope highly publicized NFL quarterbacks.

464
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 3: Like it's the twice. It's not the ones, it's the

465
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 3: twice that's the concern. It's one time is fine, yeah,

466
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 3: but twice in not show up for quarter appearance. Also,

467
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 3: the other thing interesting about it too is you know,

468
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 3: normally the team security will handle stuff like that, like

469
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 3: quarter appearance stuff, and they'll just get did he not

470
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 3: tell the Browns either that he got a speaking ticket,

471
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 3: because I just would have been like, here's my ticket.

472
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,199
Speaker 3: I messed up, Like team security, can you deal with

473
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 3: this for me? Like I don't. The fact that I

474
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,119
Speaker 3: guess no one knew about it was also pretty interesting

475
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 3: to me.

476
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 2: Yeah right, yeah, but you said it, Jeff, it's a

477
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 2: you know, you're judged differently as an NFL quarterback, and

478
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 2: you got to show better judgment than that, because that's

479
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 2: the thing I think you got to get into this

480
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 2: mindset for any player, Shader Sanders or anybody else, especially

481
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 2: NFL quarterbacks, where it's not just about you. You're not

482
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 2: in this you bubble like everything that happens to you

483
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 2: affects the team. Where does Kevin Stefanski want to answer

484
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 2: any questions about Shauldur's lead foot, Like, No, he's got

485
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 2: business to attend to. He's gonna turn into Belichick? Hey,

486
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 2: co what any thing about Shadura getting his second speeding ticket?

487
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 2: If he was honestly be like, I think I've got

488
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 2: bigger fish to fry, is what I think?

489
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:09,119

490
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,560

526
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 2: Back to you guys, believable, great stuff, Ilo, background, music's

527
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,719
Speaker 2: come a long way, you know. But the for these games,

528
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 2: these sporting events, also movies, man, these newer movies. I'm like,

529
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 2: I remember when soundtracks used to suck. My gosh, not

530
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 2: the soundtrack. There's the back all we got. We need

531
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 2: tense music over here, and it's the most stereotypical.

532
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 3: Like whoat well, oh yeah, whoa.

533
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 2: It's like, bro, this music's come a long long way.

534
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 2: But great stuff. And you go back to the hot tub

535
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 2: time machine eighty eight Pistons Game six, when Isaiah Thomas

536
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 2: went crazy twenty five points in the third quarter, still

537
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 2: in the NBA Finals, record for most points in a

538
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 2: quarter on one good ankle and it was a phantom

539
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 2: foul on lame Bear who didn't even touch Kareem And

540
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 2: then they lost Game seven, where you just heard that intro.

541
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 2: But that's NBA basketball lore right there. But Ilo also

542
00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 2: mentioned Coastal Carolina going down yesterday and it was Cad Anderson.

543
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 2: Mister Anderswold unbelievable. Only gave up three hits, no runs,

544
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 2: ten strikeouts through one hundred and thirty pitches. He was outstanding.

545
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 2: Here's my question to both of you guys, which underdog

546
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 2: would you rather back? Would you rather back the Pacers

547
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 2: in a one game scenario, Game seven on the road

548
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 2: they're plus two forty or would you rather back Coastal Carolina?

549
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 2: Not just money line today they gotta win two straight

550
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 2: to win it all. They're at plus three twenty to

551
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 2: win a championship against the LSU. Who would you rather back? Jeff?

552
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 3: The pitchers have won three games this series, Like I mean,

553
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 3: I think Coastal wins today. I think that's what I

554
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 3: put my own to win this game today. It's so

555
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 3: funny a college baseball and I think encapsulates perfectly like

556
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 3: college sports versus the NFL, I mean versus professional sports,

557
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 3: where you know, this kid do what one hundred and

558
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 3: twenty five pitches last night? You never getting that in

559
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 3: baseball anymore? Like never. I mean, the guy got no

560
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 3: hitter the other day for the Yankees and was like

561
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 3: one hundred pitches, you're done by You're out of the

562
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 3: game no more for you. You know, we saw the

563
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 3: LSU Arkansas game the other night. You know, so often

564
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 3: in college sports a team loses a gamer than wins

565
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 3: a game. Ls you had no business winning that game.

566
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 3: Arkansas made four poor defensive plays in a row, essentially,

567
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 3: and so I just I'd like watching college baseball for

568
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 3: that reason, I think. But I would back Indiana and

569
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 3: I have I have two futures on the Thunder. Okay, guys,

570
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 3: I took one after game one, and I have a

571
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 3: bonus bet for the Thunder plus money, so I feel good.

572
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 3: I have a bonusman the Pacers too, So I would

573
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 3: make something. But do I hedge it all today? Is

574
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 3: my question. That's what I got to figure outf I

575
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 3: want to hedge it all today, I haven't done it yet.

576
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 3: I don't think I'm gonna do it. But uh, the

577
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 3: point is, Brian, I would I would much rather take

578
00:30:58,840 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 3: the Pacers today than called.

579
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 4: Okay, I like that you're using bonus bets. I heard that.

580
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 4: Let's address that first. So the bonus bets at plus money.

581
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 4: That's the way to use and utilize bonus bets. So

582
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 4: so when you get these bonus bets that especially the

583
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 4: like like bet MGM they have to I have to

584
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 4: fifteen hundred sign up bonuses when you use the code

585
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 4: countdown Like I am one to use that bet on

586
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,719
Speaker 4: an underdog. I'm not going to use it like some

587
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 4: people want to use it on, like oh, give me

588
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 4: the Yankees minus three to one. No, no, no, you

589
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 4: shouldn't try to win five hundred dollars on a fifteen

590
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 4: hundred dollars bonus bet. You should be taking plus money. Jeff,

591
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 4: what did you give me an example of what what

592
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 4: did you take? Okay?

593
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 3: See at so I had some bonus bets, like middle

594
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 3: of the postseason. BETMGM just gave me a bunch of them.

595
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 3: I don't know why. Maybe I was losing so much money.

596
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 3: They're like, here here's some here's some free money. You

597
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 3: know why so I took. I took uh. Yeah, I

598
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 3: took one of the uh, the big the biggest one

599
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 3: I had. I put on Thunder. I think it was

600
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 3: like plus one fifty to win the championship. And then

601
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 3: I took two smaller bonus bets and put one on

602
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 3: the Knicks and one on the Pacers to win the championship.

603
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 3: So like plus three eighty and I think whatever the

604
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 3: knicks were, I think we have the same both like

605
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 3: plus three eighty so I got two sitting there. So

606
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 3: but then I took but again after game one though,

607
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 3: I took a big wager I think like Thunder minus

608
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 3: two seventy five to win the championship someone that went

609
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 3: when it went way down after game one. So that

610
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,719
Speaker 3: account I might hedge a little bit, But the other

611
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 3: one's a bonus bets. I'm not gonna have my bonus bets.

612
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 3: I would money either way with with bet MGM tonight

613
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:43,479
Speaker 3: on the on the result.

614
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, and if I had a bet one, well, you know, well,

615
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 4: it's been really exciting college baseball postseason, first of all.

616
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 4: And I shout out to my cousin, my cousin, my niece,

617
00:32:55,400 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 4: my niece Sarah for graduating from Coastal this month. Yeah, yeah, no,

618
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 4: she's she's great, you know. But she's one of those

619
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 4: kids that she got a job on the golf course

620
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 4: in Myrtle Beach in the cart. It's like selling drinks

621
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 4: in the cart. So now you know, you have a

622
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 4: you know, twenty two year old girl and she's she's

623
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 4: had a taste of money.

624
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 3: Now you know.

625
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 4: It's It's like girls that come to Vegas from the

626
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,719
Speaker 4: middle of America and they used to make it one

627
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 4: hundred and twenty a day, and now they come to

628
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 4: Vegas and their cocktail waitress making three four hundred sometimes

629
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 4: a night. That's right a night. So you know I

630
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 4: have to Uncle Billy has to give her. They call

631
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 4: me you be like uncle Buck. But Uncle Billy has

632
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 4: to give a talk there because you know, she's now

633
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 4: getting a taste of making three hundred dollars on a Saturday,

634
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 4: three hundred dollars cash Saturday Sunday out there driving around

635
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 4: the golf court. But anyway, we've had some really exciting games.

636
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 4: Lsu End up ended Coastal Carolina's twenty six game winging

637
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 4: streak yesterday really at nail biting one nothing win to

638
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 4: go up one nothing in this series. If I had

639
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 4: bet when Pacers are Coastal, I would go with the

640
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 4: Pacers also because they just have to win one game

641
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 4: and Coastal needs to win two in a row, which

642
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,439
Speaker 4: they can do, but it's obviously much tougher. But again

643
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 4: not be I won't be surprised if both things happen. Uh,

644
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 4: Like I said, I have a lot of friends in

645
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 4: Myrtle Beach also, and I think Coastal Caro on his successes.

646
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 4: It's a really cool story. So I'm rooting for them.

647
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I'll be the weirdo on the show. I

648
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 2: back Coastal. I don't think Pacers are winning. I know

649
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 2: it's a one game scenario, but this is game seven

650
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 2: on the road. Okay, So he's been the best team

651
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 2: all season long. It is not going to be easy

652
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 2: whatsoever with the banged ub Halliburton to win on the

653
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:39,760
Speaker 2: road in game seven, you're at a neutral site. Coastal's

654
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 2: won twenty six in a row, and the payout is different,

655
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 2: you know. Coastal plus three to twenty is obviously different

656
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:50,360
Speaker 2: than Pacers plus two forty, so I'm getting a better return.

657
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 2: I know they have to win two games, but it's

658
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 2: basically a coin flip. Today they're minus a dollar ten. Yeah,

659
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 2: you know, and I just think that you gotta score.

660
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,439
Speaker 2: I don't see them getting shut out the entire tournament, right,

661
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 2: the entire series. Two straight games. I think if they

662
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,919
Speaker 2: get a lead, and that Offen has been pretty good.

663
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,879
Speaker 2: If they get a lead, they basically have two closers.

664
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 2: I think Coastal is more than life to come back

665
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 2: and win too.

666
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 3: Straight and last something on this too. Coastal did not

667
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 3: start their ace last night. They win the bullpen game,

668
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 3: so they're pitching should be better in game two than

669
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,840
Speaker 3: what you're going to see from LSU.

670
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,719

Speaker 2: you with something you like.

704
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 4: You know, I usually saved, usually saved props for the

705
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 4: prop portion of the show. But I got a lot

706
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 4: to give out today, So let's give out a prop here.

707
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 4: TJ McConnell points assist over fourteen and a half. He's

708
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:27,400
Speaker 4: been a crucial part of the bench player here for

709
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,760
Speaker 4: the Pacers this series, especially over the last three games.

710
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:34,759
Speaker 4: His minutes have been on the rise each game. He

711
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 4: brings energy and the spark for the for the coach

712
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 4: and the team. I expect twenty twenty five minutes for

713
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 4: him tonight. Expect to have the the ball in his

714
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 4: handle lot. So let's go over fourteen and a half

715
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 4: points assist for TJ tonight.

716
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 3: Okay. I guess the question is, I don't know if

717
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 3: it's going to fit in up to Let you build

718
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 3: those here, Brian. It's the only thing. Yeah, I like Okay,

719
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 3: see first quarter, you go money line if it helps

720
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 3: the parlay, Brian. If not, we'll take the three and

721
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 3: a half for minus one oh five now for okay,

722
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 3: see in the first quarter. As I said, I just

723
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 3: think that if we think they'll win the championship tonight,

724
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 3: we're getting Brian. I agree with. Then they have to

725
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 3: start fast today. If they're a championship team, they're gonna

726
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 3: come out some pride home court. They played terribly in

727
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:31,920
Speaker 3: Game six. I would expect a spirited effort. Defensively, they

728
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,800
Speaker 3: were terrible on defense in the in the first quarter.

729
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 3: They dominated first quarters after wins except one game at

730
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,359
Speaker 3: the Nuggets. After loss, I should say, and really get

731
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 3: a home in the first quarter. So give me the

732
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 3: first quarter minus three.

733
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 8: And a half.

734
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 2: Okay. It's the weird thing with props, the combo that

735
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 2: composts that the cracked throughout there. It has temporarily vanished.

736
00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,759
Speaker 2: It will be back. TJ is gone on right now.

737
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,359
Speaker 2: So like a you know, like a thief in the night.

738
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 2: It is gone right now, but it'll be back. But

739
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,360
Speaker 2: I had a TJ. McConnell prop that I will I

740
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,959
Speaker 2: will save because you obviously can't parlay those two things. Yeah,

741
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,800
Speaker 2: so I will go I'm gonna take the Pacers team total.

742
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,280
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go under one oh four and a half.

743
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 2: And you're thinking they're not gonna score one oh five.

744
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 2: This is game seven, okay, Like you look historically at

745
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 2: game sevens and they are low, low scoring. If you

746
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 2: look at the game sevens since two thousand, they're all

747
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 2: low score. It's crazy you look at these. Okay. So

748
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,440
Speaker 2: when the Cavs beat the Warriors in twenty sixteen, ninety

749
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 2: three to eighty nine, the Heat beat the Spurs in

750
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 2: twenty thirteen ninety five eighty eight, Lakers over the Celtics

751
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 2: twenty ten eighty three seventy nine, and my favorite, the

752
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 2: Spurs over the Pistons and O five eighty one seventy four. Like,

753
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 2: what are we doing? I'm not expecting it to be

754
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 2: that low, But I'm not sure the Pacers are cracking

755
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,280
Speaker 2: trip but triple digits in this one, I think. Okay,

756
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 2: C's defense can be feisty, gonna be a lot to

757
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 2: deal with. I'll take Pacers under one oh four and

758
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 2: a half for the team total right there. I can't

759
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 2: give you a payout on the uh on the parlay

760
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,320
Speaker 2: platter because so we gotta wait for cracks to reappear.

761
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 2: But it'll be spicy. How about that? Is this a

762
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 2: good or bad thing for a league? Oh? What is

763
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 2: going on? Happy Sunday?

764
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 10: To you?

765
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 2: It is a game seven Sunday? Huh? Only secondary to

766

Speaker 2: Super Bowl Sunday. Oh that's right, Okay, keep that in mind.

767
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 2: You know some people prisoner of the moment. Game seven

768
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 2: best two words in sports now second best two words

769
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 2: in sports to Super Bowl. But I digress we're gonna

770
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:51,760
Speaker 2: get to is this drama a good or a bad

771
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,719

Speaker 2: bets if you don't win your first bet. Okay, So

780
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 2: we gotta go with the drama in the WNBA recently,

781
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 2: so earlier this week, I'm curious what you guys think

782
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:28,720
Speaker 2: about this. There was some drama in the FEVA versus

783
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 2: Connecticut Sun game. So Caitlin Clark, she got filed, she

784
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 2: got raked across the face, poked in the eye, and

785
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 2: there's a little bit of pushing, shoving, and then here

786
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 2: comes Marina Maybray and the enforcer just knocks over Caitlin.

787
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 2: She falls to the floor. So there was that drama,

788
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,759
Speaker 2: and then later in the game some payback Sophie Cunningham,

789
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:54,520
Speaker 2: the enforcer. She gets even with j. C. Shelton. She's

790
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:58,400
Speaker 2: the rookie from the son who initially filed Caitlin, hit

791
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 2: her in the face, you know, poked her in the eye.

792
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:04,400
Speaker 2: So Sophie Cunningham got some payback on JC Shelton. At

793
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 2: the end of the game, JC on a fast break

794
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,400
Speaker 2: and Sophie just grabs her head throws her down. So

795
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 2: we had some drama going on. So the question is

796
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 2: this type of stuff ultimately a good thing or a

797
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,840
Speaker 2: bad thing for the WNBA. And I say here and

798
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,800
Speaker 2: say it's a fantastic thing for the league. These fans

799
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 2: eat it up. If you just look at your social

800
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 2: media feed, it is video after video after video after

801
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 2: video of Sophie Cunningham, the back and forth with Caitlin.

802
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,319
Speaker 2: How is that a bad thing for the WNBA If

803
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,720
Speaker 2: this is the NFL and it's thriving and printing money

804
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 2: and they don't want that drama, the bad blood to

805
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 2: be front and center. Okay, but you have all these

806
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,879
Speaker 2: people already under the tent. You know, if you look

807
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:53,799
Speaker 2: at the WNBA, they're losing money every single year. They

808
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 2: fought for relevancy and ratings for so long. Now they're

809
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:01,319
Speaker 2: finally starting to get some recognition. They're getting eyeballs. If

810
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 2: the WWE element is what draws some fans in, if

811
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,839
Speaker 2: I'm the w NBM, like, hey, great, we'll take them

812
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:12,319
Speaker 2: however we get them, and so I think ultimately it's

813
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 2: a good thing for the w n B A. You guys,

814
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,040
Speaker 2: you see it the same way.

815
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I think I think any sort of publicity

816
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 3: is good for the w n b A. They need

817
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 3: it as much as possible. I watch a lot of

818
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 3: w NBA, now I know you do as well, Brian.

819
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,240
Speaker 3: I I'd rather they fix their layup problem than worry

820
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 3: about this. But we need we need to make our layups, ladies,

821
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:43,560
Speaker 3: we please. But I look, it's interesting just the dynamic

822
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:48,680
Speaker 3: in the way this league is treating their superstar versus

823
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:50,720
Speaker 3: how we treat supers in other leagues. And I think

824
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 3: the w NA is so far behind because they're popularity

825
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 3: is new to other sports, where in the NFL, to

826
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 3: the chagrin of all of us, we think way out

827
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 3: of the way to protect quarterbacks right like this is

828
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 3: our number one entity of the sport. If they get

829
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 3: touched by anyone penalty flag like, you're like, don't matter,

830
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 3: We'll We're trying to do whatever we can to keep

831
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 3: these quarterbacks in the game. In the NBA, there was

832
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 3: a foul call now got rescinded. SJ was not touched

833
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:23,439
Speaker 3: at all, foul personal foul, like no on a problem

834
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 3: of review. He wasn't touched at all, like ouither way

835
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:29,600
Speaker 3: to make sure that these superstars in this sport get

836
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 3: the treatment that they should. You on baseball, we can't

837
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:36,160
Speaker 3: throw anyone anymore, right, they get ejected the Dodgers padres

838
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 3: Now that can lead to injury, of course, but ejection

839
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:41,000
Speaker 3: immediately get out of here. We're protecting our superstars, right,

840
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 3: we don't want to our guys getting hit. You're out

841
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 3: of here. WNBA poking the eye truck stick technical foul

842
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,439
Speaker 3: on Clark too, You're like, what what, what's happening here?

843
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:56,240
Speaker 3: And it's just so different than other sports leagues where

844
00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:59,240
Speaker 3: the WNBA feels like it goes out of their way

845
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,839
Speaker 3: to not give Clark credit for anything. I mean, I look,

846
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 3: I'm fading the Chicago sky endlessly the entire season. I'm

847
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 3: on the dream today fifteen and a half, fifteen and

848
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 3: a half. Do not care the sky are terrible. You know,

849
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 3: you look at social media feeds yesterday, I was just

850
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 3: looking to see, like, w a big content. The two

851
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 3: tweets yesterday for WNBA. One of them was about I

852
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 3: don't know, some random play then Angelies making a three

853
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,839
Speaker 3: one three. She had one shot yesterday they lost by

854
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 3: nearly thirty, and it's like the same energy is not

855
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 3: given to Clark. I think a lot of us are

856
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 3: just sort of surprised at sort of the not protecting

857
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 3: of the star and not elevating Caitlin Clark, who the numbers,

858
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 3: the money brought in, the arena size, the attendance, all

859
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 3: these things, the point of Clark having such a huge

860
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 3: impact on the league. And that's the part that I

861
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 3: just I don't get, and I think that manifests itself.

862
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,359
Speaker 3: And just the end of that game the other day,

863
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:09,360
Speaker 3: I don't know any other league where a player like

864
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,799
Speaker 3: Maybury in that instance, who was not part of the

865
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:17,160
Speaker 3: initial incident could truck a player and survive the rest

866
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 3: of the game and play the rest of the game.

867
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 3: Brian like that, so good. All Pub is great. Pub.

868
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 3: I just was surprised that she wasn't ejected in twenty

869
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 3: twenty five in nineteen eighty eight, it'd be a melee

870
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,439
Speaker 3: and everyone keep playing. It's not the sports anymore, crack.

871
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,799
Speaker 3: So look, all this stuff is good. It's good for

872
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 3: the lead to have this attention, but a lot of

873
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 3: us are just sort of surprised at just kind of

874
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:40,800
Speaker 3: the again, like the lack of anything done to protect

875
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 3: Kaitlin Clark.

876
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, good points, good points. Of course, it's a good

877
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 4: thing for the WNBA. Just like you said, Brian, there

878
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:52,560
Speaker 4: drama selvesh They are hurting for eyeballs anyway, So it

879
00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,360
Speaker 4: just kind of drama or buzz helps the ratings for

880
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 4: the WNBA. I also wouldn't call it a non basketball

881
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:04,839
Speaker 4: drama just because the drama is taking place on the court. Now,

882
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 4: I admit I don't watch a lot of WNBA, but

883
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 4: you know I do bet it on a regular basis,

884
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,280
Speaker 4: especially the prop market. I've seen a lot of Caitlin

885
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,319
Speaker 4: Clark highlights, and she really is an amazing player that

886
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 4: we haven't seen before in this league. I went to

887
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,200
Speaker 4: dinner last night. I usually don't go to dinner Saturday nights.

888
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:23,920
Speaker 4: I have to get up so early on Sunday morning.

889
00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 4: Went to a real late night dinner last night Downtown

890
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,839
Speaker 4: at Circa at a Barry Steakhouse, which is unbelievable, by

891
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:31,719
Speaker 4: the way, one of the top three in this town.

892
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:35,280
Speaker 4: I've been there multiple times. These guys were all sports betters,

893
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 4: eight of them. Literally they come into town to sign

894
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:44,320
Speaker 4: up for big contests now and talking to all these guys,

895
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:48,440
Speaker 4: I couldn't believe what one of the highlights of the

896
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:51,319
Speaker 4: dinner was talking about WNBA.

897
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 2: Okay, no, I mean they.

898
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 4: All talked that we're talking about, and they were talking

899
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 4: about how much money now is in the sport compared

900
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:02,920
Speaker 4: the years before before Kitlin Clark, and how they used

901
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 4: to fly a commercial now they fly private. I mean,

902
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,839
Speaker 4: I didn't even know all these things. I learned these

903
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:13,080
Speaker 4: things last night. And a lot of it is because

904
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,960
Speaker 4: Caitlin Clark has brought all this attention to the WNBA,

905
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 4: and you think the other players would actually embrace it

906
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,439
Speaker 4: and say, hey, we're actually have chance to make more

907
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 4: money now and more eyeballs on us, more TV, and

908
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 4: we're flying private. We're getting dread a little bit different.

909
00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 4: So it's unfortunate that we have these type of drama

910
00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 4: and incidents in that in that way, I guess, But

911
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 4: listen for eight grown men that are all sports betters

912
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 4: to start talking and bring up I didn't bring up WNBA.

913
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 4: They did, and it was a conversation for at least

914
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,760
Speaker 4: fifteen minutes. I was like, wow, they were really talking

915
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 4: about the WNBA, Caitlin Clark in general, about you know,

916
00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:59,480
Speaker 4: betting on this stuff. Of course, dur in Vegas, everyone's

917
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,719
Speaker 4: a you know, they had these I don't drink, but

918
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:06,000
Speaker 4: they had these giant things of wine, like not a

919
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:08,800
Speaker 4: regular sized bottle loo looked like a double or maybe

920
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 4: even a triple sized bottle of wine. The wine was flowing,

921
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:15,879
Speaker 4: the conversations were happening, and of course what happens, They're

922
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 4: all going out firing after the dinner. I could just

923
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 4: see it in their eyes. They had dice and blackjack

924
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 4: and craps ready to roll.

925
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 2: So there you go. That's right. Yeah, you know, like

926
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:30,439
Speaker 2: the soap opera element. I think of this for anyone

927
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:32,040
Speaker 2: who's like, oh, this is not a good thing for

928
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,959
Speaker 2: the WNBA. There are some people who think that where

929
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 2: Rich Orenberger, We're doing a show yesterday and he thinks

930
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:40,799
Speaker 2: this stuff is like popcorn. You know, this isn't real.

931
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 2: This is just like the soap opera stuff that's fluff

932
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 2: and get it out of my face. He's in the

933
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 2: minority though, because people are eating this up. But for

934
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:52,640
Speaker 2: anybody who thinks that way, I would apply this to

935
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,279
Speaker 2: think about the Stanley Cup Final. We just had it.

936
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,720
Speaker 2: The ratings were in the toilet. It averaged two point

937
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 2: five million viewers per game. That's nothing. The NFL would

938
00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 2: have a nervous breakdown if, like the schedule release show

939
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:10,839
Speaker 2: got that little of ratings, you know what I mean,

940
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:14,120
Speaker 2: like or the draft, They'd be like, what for your

941
00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:17,920
Speaker 2: marquee event to be rated that load? Now if the

942
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,759
Speaker 2: Stanley Cup Final, if it had some sort of like

943
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,560
Speaker 2: soap opera element to it, Let's say it's it's similar

944
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:27,520
Speaker 2: to Marina Maybrey, like knocking down Caitlin Clark. If you

945
00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 2: had something that was shared on social media and it

946
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:33,480
Speaker 2: generated some interest and it led to some higher ratings,

947
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 2: would that not be a good thing for the NHL.

948
00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:37,920
Speaker 2: Of course, it would be a good thing for the NHL.

949
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,960
Speaker 2: So it'd be a good thing for any league. Whatever

950
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 2: gets people interested, great, fantastic, especially a league that's lost money.

951
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:52,200
Speaker 2: Your Four Nations, Yeah, four Nations crushed the Stanley Cup rating.

952
00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:54,400
Speaker 3: Correct because they fought, they had a fight the first

953
00:50:54,440 --> 00:51:02,200
Speaker 3: game or second game. They just three straight fights and yeah, yeah,

954
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:05,160
Speaker 3: I think ultimately you don't want the attention to be

955
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 3: that we don't take care of our superstars like I

956
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,279
Speaker 3: think that's certainly not what you want it to be

957
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:13,040
Speaker 3: in the end. But right now it's good attention. And

958
00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:15,920
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. Crack close your ears because this

959
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:16,880
Speaker 3: is its exact spot.

960
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 2: Okay, Caitlin Clark.

961
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 3: At eleven eight and.

962
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 2: Nine, last game, terrible, awful game.

963
00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:26,600
Speaker 3: And if you listen to commentary on social media, it

964
00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 3: was Kaitlyn Clark not good, right. I don't know about

965
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 3: you guys. Yeah she didn't scored a ton of points,

966
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:34,719
Speaker 3: but you're three steps away from a triple double. I

967
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,399
Speaker 3: think you had a decent game, enough game. They play

968
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:40,839
Speaker 3: the Aces tonight, and I know that I believe Asia

969
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:41,319
Speaker 3: Wilson is.

970
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:42,600
Speaker 2: Back today, But.

971
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:48,719
Speaker 3: Buddy, I would imagine it's a big day for Kaitlyn.

972
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:54,840
Speaker 2: Clark going yes, little a pre game before game seven,

973
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:57,720
Speaker 2: you know, I wish'd.

974
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,800
Speaker 3: Be that'd be a ton of fun. Also worth noting

975
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 3: Asia Wilson over points in the account already my favorite

976
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,320
Speaker 3: bet to make a w A BA season correct. This

977
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:09,359
Speaker 3: is actually it's a real it's this is a good

978
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:13,920
Speaker 3: trend and it's paying off the center. Like the primary

979
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:17,880
Speaker 3: interior player for the opponent of the Fever scores a

980
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 3: ton of points every game, Brian. I have tracked it,

981
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,920
Speaker 3: like a ridiculous amount of points over every single game

982
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:26,480
Speaker 3: because the Fever can't rebound and have no interior defense.

983
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:29,120
Speaker 3: So it's a good wager to make whenever they're playing

984
00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 3: a team that has a functional big person, that person

985
00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:34,200
Speaker 3: scores a ton of points every game.

986
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:37,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that game will be packed, Brian. You're going

987
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 4: to a game and it's going to be so exciting.

988
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:44,319
Speaker 4: Mobile sold out. This is a big game, you know.

989
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:47,319
Speaker 4: I mean, I without really annoying, I shouldn't say sold out,

990
00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 4: but you never know. I mean this I think is

991
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:53,240
Speaker 4: a great a Sunday game before the big game tonight. Okay,

992
00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 4: see game in Vegas. So the guys, like I said

993
00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:58,240
Speaker 4: at dinner last night, we're talking about this game today

994
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:00,959
Speaker 4: and debating whether to go to the game.

995
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:04,319
Speaker 3: So nice, Yeah, yeah, sold out right, I imagine sold out.

996
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:05,880
Speaker 2: I would imagine it.

997
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,120
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, Brian, did you get tickets? I don't know.

998
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:08,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

999
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:09,520
Speaker 3: Nice?

1000
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, nice, that's a fun Have you ever been to

1001
00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:13,520
Speaker 4: a w NBA game.

1002
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:16,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I went to I saw the Aces played the

1003
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:23,240
Speaker 2: Sparks a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, yeah, Jeff jeffinitely

1004
00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:25,120
Speaker 2: was talking about wagering on it. I'm like, I might

1005
00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:26,920
Speaker 2: as well just go to it. I'm like, you know,

1006
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,520
Speaker 2: like there was just like spur of the moment type thing.

1007
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's cool.

1008
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:33,239
Speaker 4: I mean, is there a home team crowd? Like, you know,

1009
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,919
Speaker 4: it's Vegas is I'm not fair weather, but it's it's

1010
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:39,520
Speaker 4: because we have all the different teams coming from out

1011
00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:42,279
Speaker 4: of state and the fans coming from out of state.

1012
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 4: So but is the Aces is that a good home

1013
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:48,720
Speaker 4: crowd there? Like the Raiders, which is fifty to fifty

1014
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:49,480
Speaker 4: most of the right.

1015
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 2: I think it's pretty good crack because you know, they've

1016
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:55,240
Speaker 2: they've had big success not that long ago, and Asia

1017
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,719
Speaker 2: Wilson is still an awesome player. So yeah, they have

1018
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 2: a legit home courted they're at you know, like Mandalay

1019
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 2: Bay normally like a court inside there. But it's it's

1020
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,360
Speaker 2: a nice venue. You know, it's good enough. And they

1021
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 2: go to T Mobile because Caitlyn's in town. You know, like,

1022
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,640
Speaker 2: let's sell this thing out. But that's the interesting part

1023
00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:18,120
Speaker 2: of it, I'll say real fast is I don't know

1024
00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:20,799
Speaker 2: if I'm like the only person that went the other

1025
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:24,760
Speaker 2: way with Caitlyn Clark getting knocked over by Marina Maybrey,

1026
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:27,360
Speaker 2: I don't think Maybury should have been tossed. I don't

1027
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 2: like I go back to last year. Remember you guys

1028
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 2: will remember this. Remember when Kennedy Carter of the Sky

1029
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:38,879
Speaker 2: she just knocked over Caitlyn was about to get the

1030
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 2: inbounce pass and Kennedy Carter just went over to her

1031
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:45,680
Speaker 2: and not decleted her, you know, and Angel was clapping.

1032
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:47,799
Speaker 2: It was that whole thing. She didn't get tossed her.

1033
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 2: That was a total cheap shot, non basketball play, not

1034
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:55,600
Speaker 2: getting tossed from it. Like, I don't think Maybury walking

1035
00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:59,239
Speaker 2: over and bumping Clark to the floor, I don't think

1036
00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:02,480
Speaker 2: that rises to you should be ejected immediately. We've seen

1037
00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 2: harder files, we've seen cheaper, cheap shots, and they've stayed

1038
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,560
Speaker 2: in the games. I just I didn't agree that she

1039
00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:11,120
Speaker 2: should have gotten the gate. Now, it led to more

1040
00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 2: bad blood with Sophie Cunningham getting even later in the game,

1041
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 2: but I think that benefited the w NBA. I just

1042
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,799
Speaker 2: think this, I think I totally hear you on protecting superstars, Jeff,

1043
00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 2: trust me, I do. But I think that there's an

1044
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:29,560
Speaker 2: overreaction at times where Caitlyn is the golden goose and

1045
00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 2: if she gets knocked to the floor, we're like, you know,

1046
00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:34,920
Speaker 2: get her out of the game, you know, get the

1047
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:37,799
Speaker 2: other person out of the game. I just don't think

1048
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,920
Speaker 2: some of those things rise to a legitimate reason to

1049
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:42,319
Speaker 2: get tossed. That's just me.

1050
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 3: But isn't it isn't it. It's more of a culative

1051
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 3: thing right where it's like it seems like, you know,

1052
00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:49,600
Speaker 3: year out, you know, the game after game, like they

1053
00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:51,879
Speaker 3: they just seem to go after her, which is fine.

1054
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:55,840
Speaker 3: I mean that happens plenty in sports. But you know,

1055
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:57,759
Speaker 3: a couple of the Carter thing last year and then

1056
00:55:57,800 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 3: Maybor got it got upgrade to flagrant two to the fact,

1057
00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 3: which would have been an injection on the on the

1058
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,400
Speaker 3: on the spot, and I think again, like giving Clark

1059
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,480
Speaker 3: a t as well as the funniest that was weird.

1060
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the weird part.

1061
00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 3: But she pushed the girl, that shoved her, that poked

1062
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 3: her in the eye as the girl went up on.

1063
00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 2: Her right and it wasn't like it was like, get on,

1064
00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:18,719
Speaker 2: give me a second. Yeah like it.

1065
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:23,919
Speaker 3: They're like, no, youre t T for you. So look

1066
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 3: we're talking about the wa for for six seventeen minutes now.

1067
00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:29,800
Speaker 3: I was obviously a good thing for the league in general.

1068
00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:33,480
Speaker 3: There's a bunch of games today as well, and like

1069
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:35,719
Speaker 3: I said, I'm on the fifth bard fifteen and a half.

1070
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:39,880
Speaker 3: I did it. I absurd number today for Sky Dream

1071
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,920
Speaker 3: Scott in a back to back. They shot. They're not

1072
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,280
Speaker 3: good at offense. They shot fifty percent yesterday and lost

1073
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:49,200
Speaker 3: by thirty. The Sky did they go back to shooting

1074
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,239
Speaker 3: like forty percent. They're gonna lose this game today by

1075
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:53,960
Speaker 3: by twenty five thirty.

1076
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:57,520
Speaker 4: Again, sixteen even seventeen at some spots in Vegas.

1077
00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,239
Speaker 3: I woke up this morning. I looked at numbers like

1078
00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:03,160
Speaker 3: fifteen a half. Boom done because yesterday the game opened

1079
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 3: eight and a half and got to like twelve and

1080
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,160
Speaker 3: a half I think before tip. So everyone's fading the skycrack.

1081
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you know. I'm looking at these lines. Wow,

1082
00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:14,279
Speaker 4: the WNBA lines, the openers. Let's look at the game

1083
00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:17,400
Speaker 4: Bryan's going to today. So Indiana opened up one in

1084
00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:20,320
Speaker 4: one sixty seven and a half up to up to

1085
00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:23,439
Speaker 4: one seventy one and a half. Some big movement here

1086
00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:27,680
Speaker 4: on these games. Dallas Washington another game four points, Connecticut

1087
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:30,600
Speaker 4: Golden State four points. I mean, on these totals, some

1088
00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:33,160
Speaker 4: big now, Briant, were you wager out all today going

1089
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:33,640
Speaker 4: to the game?

1090
00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 2: Oh, I might crack. I've known to let a WNBA

1091
00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 2: wager or twenty fly you know, so very well. Most

1092
00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:45,880
Speaker 2: likely will get invested in some way, shape or form.

1093
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:47,280
Speaker 2: But I'll tell you why. It's a big game for

1094
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 2: the Aces. They've been off to a rocky start wins

1095
00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:53,200
Speaker 2: and losses wise. Asia Wilson was banged up. She's back now,

1096
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 2: but to beat the fever at home, that'd be a

1097
00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 2: big deal for the Aces.

1098
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:02,320
Speaker 4: Where I come from, My guys, it's real simple. You

1099
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:06,120
Speaker 4: cannot go to a game without putting a wager on it. No,

1100
00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 4: I mean they can't just enjoy a Yankee game or

1101
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,360
Speaker 4: a mech game going on city field. No, they're animals.

1102
00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:14,280
Speaker 4: They just gotta just action everywhere. You know, take your

1103
00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:18,080
Speaker 4: kid to the game, enjoy your children and a baseball

1104
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 4: hot dogs, Uh yeah, apple pie, you know, pop cracker Jacks.

1105
00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 4: It's just it's a sickness. And now gambling so fashionable.

1106
00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:28,960
Speaker 3: Forget it.

1107
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:33,080
Speaker 4: Even we're talking about w NBA game Indiana, Las Vegas.

1108
00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:35,480
Speaker 4: People going to the game, and I'm asking about, of

1109
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:37,800
Speaker 4: course you're gonna have some kind of action something even

1110
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:40,160
Speaker 4: a sawbuck or a double saw which.

1111
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:44,080
Speaker 2: Is double saw. Yeah, give me double saw and double saw. Yeah,

1112
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:46,240
Speaker 2: it's funny. Jeff and I were texting a little bit

1113
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:49,160
Speaker 2: ago based on what you're saying there, crack where you

1114
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:52,800
Speaker 2: know you're a sports better when you're handicapping games that

1115
00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:55,240
Speaker 2: lines are not even available, you know what I mean?

1116
00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:58,520
Speaker 2: Like if you're at a seventh grade football game and

1117
00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:00,800
Speaker 2: you're like, I'd totally be on the undrun this one.

1118
00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 2: You know, yeah, you're thinking like that, it's not even offered.

1119
00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 3: I did have a friend who coaches a ten U

1120
00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,520
Speaker 3: All Star team, okay in litle league baseball. I asked

1121
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 3: him about a game he was going to coach earlier

1122
00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:16,200
Speaker 3: this week, and he gave me a fake number on

1123
00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:19,200
Speaker 3: the game. So that's that's when you know that you

1124
00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:22,240
Speaker 3: might be hit a little deep. I text you a

1125
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:24,120
Speaker 3: fake number for the game. You thinks he's gonna win.

1126
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:28,960
Speaker 2: That's beautiful. An we got Bill Krachenberger Professional Sports handicapper

Speaker 2: of times here. If you want to tick her off

1144
01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 2: for whatever reason, crack, just say Sodo like it's a

1145
01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:32,440
Speaker 2: d because she'll correct it. So that's her last name,

1146
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:35,880
Speaker 2: so we joked that one Soto is her cousin, but

1147
01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:38,840
Speaker 2: she will correct you immediate. You want to get a

1148
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:40,960
Speaker 2: rise out of her, just say Sodo and just see

1149
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,200
Speaker 2: if she can stay composed. I don't know that she can.

1150
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:46,360

Speaker 2: Yes, we welcome in our good friend, Christian Sippolini, BETMGM

1166
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:39,600
Speaker 2: Trading Manager. Good morning, Christian. Okay, So Game seven thunder

1167
01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:44,600
Speaker 2: minus six and a half now at BETMGM, how many

1168
01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:49,440
Speaker 2: sharp bet on? How many like? How many big money

1169
01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:52,880
Speaker 2: sharp plays. Have you gotten where this number has moved

1170
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:53,800
Speaker 2: as much as it has.

1171
01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 10: Yeah, it was interesting when this opened at eight and

1172
01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:00,360
Speaker 10: a half. I was sitting there just saying I thought

1173
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:03,720
Speaker 10: that number was crazy. You know, we've had six games

1174
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:07,200
Speaker 10: to prove that these are pretty evenly matched teams. You know,

1175
01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:09,760
Speaker 10: it stems from this original ratings on the team. But

1176
01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:12,280
Speaker 10: you know, when you get to a game seven, you

1177
01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 10: know you assume it's going to tighten up. So yeah,

1178
01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:17,000
Speaker 10: we started taking some action on the eight and a half,

1179
01:02:17,040 --> 01:02:18,960
Speaker 10: which made sense to me, and we we're down to

1180
01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:22,080
Speaker 10: six and a half. There's some sevens out there, but yeah,

1181
01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 10: I wouldn't be surprised that. You know, so far at

1182
01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:26,160
Speaker 10: the six and a half, we've taken nothing but thunder beets.

1183
01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,880
Speaker 10: But you know, just on that logic alone that I'm talking,

1184
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,240
Speaker 10: you know, I wouldn't be surprised if it does move

1185
01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:33,720
Speaker 10: in more, just towards the Pacers, just because there's a

1186
01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:37,520
Speaker 10: game seven and we've seen that these two teams are close, so.

1187
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:41,360
Speaker 3: The total is much lower than we've seen other games

1188
01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:44,760
Speaker 3: for this series. Obviously, the trends of Game seven are

1189
01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 3: rock fights, even though I believe that Okay, see Denver

1190
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:52,240
Speaker 3: total went way over in their Game seven two series ago.

1191
01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 3: What do you see on the total two fourteen is

1192
01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 3: right now?

1193
01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:02,240
Speaker 10: Yeah, nothing over bets, which is also surprising to me.

1194
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 10: You mentioned that thunder Nuggets did go over that PACER's

1195
01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:10,600
Speaker 10: knicks from a year ago. That was a Game seven

1196
01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:13,280
Speaker 10: that also went way over. But historically, when you look

1197
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:16,720
Speaker 10: at NBA's Finals Game sevens I went back in the

1198
01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:19,320
Speaker 10: highest total points of one hundred and eighty two and

1199
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:21,320
Speaker 10: you get some back down there in one hundred and

1200
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:25,240
Speaker 10: sixty sixty points. These are typically really low scoring games.

1201
01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:28,200
Speaker 10: So I am very stunned that we've taken I've looked

1202
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,000
Speaker 10: at eighty five percent of our bets to the over.

1203
01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:34,160
Speaker 10: That's stunning to me. These are typically games where it

1204
01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 10: really tightens up and we get very little points. But

1205
01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 10: I guess that's how what betters are thinking right now.

1206
01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:45,960
Speaker 4: Christian. As far as volume on these games compared to

1207
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:50,160
Speaker 4: any other big events, I would think Game seven right now,

1208
01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:52,800
Speaker 4: you probably I would think the bulk of the money

1209
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:55,919
Speaker 4: will start coming in as the day as you get

1210
01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:59,520
Speaker 4: closer to the game. But however, my original question is

1211
01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:03,000
Speaker 4: what kind of volume do you expect or it has

1212
01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:05,200
Speaker 4: been given on this type of game compared to like,

1213
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:08,000
Speaker 4: I'll even go as far and say in a Super Bowl, like,

1214
01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:11,360
Speaker 4: what kind of volume is on this game seven Sunday Night?

1215
01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:13,640
Speaker 4: A lot of build up, a lot of suspense, a

1216
01:04:13,640 --> 01:04:17,560
Speaker 4: lot of drama, three three game seven? What's your answer

1217
01:04:17,560 --> 01:04:17,840
Speaker 4: to that?

1218
01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:20,800
Speaker 10: Yeah, So I expect this is going to be our

1219
01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:25,040
Speaker 10: most bet NBA game of all time, just because if

1220
01:04:25,040 --> 01:04:27,480
Speaker 10: you yeah, I mean, but that kind of makes sense

1221
01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:29,200
Speaker 10: if you kind of look back, you know, the recent

1222
01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:31,680
Speaker 10: NBA finals that we've had have been a little bit underwhelming,

1223
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:34,640
Speaker 10: you know, a lot of kind of four ones in there.

1224
01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:37,560
Speaker 10: The closest almost probably that Golden State Celtics series that

1225
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:40,520
Speaker 10: went to three, four to two. But outside of that,

1226
01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:41,920
Speaker 10: we've kind of had a little bit more of I

1227
01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:44,760
Speaker 10: guess I would say duds of NBA finals. So that's

1228
01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,720
Speaker 10: why I project this one to be definitely our most

1229
01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:50,600
Speaker 10: bet on one. But even with that, I would say

1230
01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:53,960
Speaker 10: it's probably will get close to an NFL playoff game,

1231
01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:57,440
Speaker 10: maybe like a wild card round or divisional round. You know,

1232
01:04:57,520 --> 01:05:00,720
Speaker 10: still nothing touches NFL, but because they're King and these

1233
01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 10: are two you know, more lower market teams, so I

1234
01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:07,200
Speaker 10: think that'll kind of contribute, but I do still expect

1235
01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:09,880
Speaker 10: this to be our most bed NBA game for sure.

1236
01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:14,440
Speaker 2: If you could thread the needle Christian or like the

1237
01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:18,120
Speaker 2: NFL where they say, you know, there's the script, if

1238
01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 2: there was a script today for BETMGM, lawyer, you know,

1239
01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:24,880
Speaker 2: you could thread it perfectly. Where the side is in

1240
01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:27,240
Speaker 2: your favor, the total is in your favor, the props

1241
01:05:27,280 --> 01:05:30,600
Speaker 2: you don't have. TJ McConnell reached double digits and scoring whatever.

1242
01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:34,080
Speaker 2: What does threading the needle for BETMGM look like for

1243
01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:34,920
Speaker 2: you guys today?

1244
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:38,760
Speaker 10: Yeah? For us, you know, we're actually in a very

1245
01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:41,360
Speaker 10: good spot. We come out okay with kind of either

1246
01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:44,280
Speaker 10: team winning, but we are definitely hoping that the Pacers

1247
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,800
Speaker 10: are the ones that pull it out. With that, we'd

1248
01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:49,720
Speaker 10: hope a very low scoring Pacers win, you know, hopefully

1249
01:05:49,720 --> 01:05:52,680
Speaker 10: they score pretty close. And TJ McConnell did not win

1250
01:05:52,760 --> 01:05:55,760
Speaker 10: the MVP Awards.

1251
01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:58,760
Speaker 3: Well, I mean he does feel like if you think

1252
01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:02,360
Speaker 3: the Pacers are gonna win, siakam MVP award wager could

1253
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:04,840
Speaker 3: could be something to do today. I want I want

1254
01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 3: to change sports quickly. We just spent twenty minutes talking

1255
01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,280
Speaker 3: about the w n b A. Obviously, what happened with

1256
01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:14,040
Speaker 3: Clark in two games ago. Just sort of the general

1257
01:06:14,240 --> 01:06:16,760
Speaker 3: you know, just discussion about the league. How much have

1258
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:19,080
Speaker 3: you guys seen as far as action on the WNB

1259
01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:21,920
Speaker 3: as you're compared to any you know, even last year,

1260
01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:23,480
Speaker 3: Like is it is it more this year? Is it

1261
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:25,200
Speaker 3: double as much? Is it less? Where do you stay

1262
01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:26,160
Speaker 3: on WNBA action?

1263
01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:30,680
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean it's significant that we certainly see the

1264
01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:33,360
Speaker 10: effect at p MGM, just just through the amount of

1265
01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:36,040
Speaker 10: action that we get. If I compare the years before

1266
01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:39,040
Speaker 10: Cable Clark got here, so when she did, it is significant.

1267
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,120
Speaker 10: And you know, typically it is the fever games. The

1268
01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:42,840
Speaker 10: fever games are the ones that take the most action

1269
01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:46,120
Speaker 10: to the most popular but there is a trickle down effect,

1270
01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:48,480
Speaker 10: you know, we do see when the feaver aren't playing,

1271
01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:51,200
Speaker 10: other games are getting action and it is a lot

1272
01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:54,360
Speaker 10: more than in the past. So that's really the most

1273
01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:56,600
Speaker 10: I can speak to it on is it is definitely

1274
01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:58,240
Speaker 10: felt from our side.

1275
01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:01,360
Speaker 4: You know that that was gonna be my question because

1276
01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:03,640
Speaker 4: we literally just spent that time on I was at

1277
01:07:03,640 --> 01:07:06,480
Speaker 4: dinner with some guys downtown last night, all sports betters,

1278
01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:09,440
Speaker 4: and they brought up WNBA for like fifteen to twenty

1279
01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:12,640
Speaker 4: minutes too, So that was gonna be my question. But yeah,

1280
01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:17,480
Speaker 4: it is amazing though that like the volume that there is.

1281
01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:19,080
Speaker 4: Though well you're gonna say, Christian, go ahead.

1282
01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:21,040
Speaker 10: I was just gonna say. Also, the time of year

1283
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:23,160
Speaker 10: just really works out well for the WWA. It's in

1284
01:07:23,160 --> 01:07:25,200
Speaker 10: the middle of the summer. There's usually just baseball and

1285
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,280
Speaker 10: there's not that much to go on. So you know,

1286
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:29,280
Speaker 10: the fact that it is gaining more popularity and more

1287
01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:31,440
Speaker 10: people are watching fever games I guess is leading to

1288
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:34,080
Speaker 10: them watching more of the rest of the league as

1289
01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:35,600
Speaker 10: a whole and betting on it the rest of the hole,

1290
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:37,200
Speaker 10: just because there's not so much else to do at

1291
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:39,480
Speaker 10: that time. So that definitely helps them too.

1292
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 4: As a continuation of that question about volume, now, as

1293
01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:46,360
Speaker 4: baseball near as the All Star Break, which I know

1294
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,280
Speaker 4: we stilled out three weeks away, but will you find

1295
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:53,280
Speaker 4: that the volume will go down in baseball towards the

1296
01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:55,919
Speaker 4: All Star breaking, Like you know, the pros that tried

1297
01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:58,360
Speaker 4: to beat this, and baseball is so tough to beat,

1298
01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:02,800
Speaker 4: it's ruling, they kind of slowed down towards All Star

1299
01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:05,720
Speaker 4: Break that first week, and believe it or not, a

1300
01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:08,160
Speaker 4: lot of the syndicates that I've worked with in the past.

1301
01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:11,520
Speaker 4: They stop betting when it comes to all start break.

1302
01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:14,120
Speaker 4: They're done for the season. So that's how hard and

1303
01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:16,800
Speaker 4: how efficient the market is. Do you guys find that

1304
01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:20,559
Speaker 4: throughout the second half of baseball season you'll still get

1305
01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:23,040
Speaker 4: the volume that you would in the first month or two.

1306
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:29,400
Speaker 10: Yeah, July is notoriously our lowest handle months either after year,

1307
01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:32,200
Speaker 10: and it just because of probably what you said, you know,

1308
01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:34,479
Speaker 10: one hundred and sixty two baseball games. By the time

1309
01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:36,479
Speaker 10: you get to you know, game one hundred and twelve,

1310
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,320
Speaker 10: it's you know, kind of becoming a slog and it's

1311
01:08:39,360 --> 01:08:41,280
Speaker 10: hard to sit there and say, well, this is I

1312
01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:42,680
Speaker 10: know this guy's going to hit a home run in

1313
01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:44,559
Speaker 10: this game. You know what's there between one and twelve

1314
01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 10: and one thirteen. So yeah, that's the same with us

1315
01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:50,120
Speaker 10: as our traders. This is what we say, it's vacation

1316
01:08:50,200 --> 01:08:52,160
Speaker 10: time right after this game seven? Do you want to

1317
01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:55,639
Speaker 10: use your vacation days using the summer, not during football season?

1318
01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:58,160
Speaker 1: So cool work for us too.

1319
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:01,240
Speaker 2: Very nice. All right, christ did, thanks for the time

1320
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:04,639
Speaker 2: as always, hope you enjoy game seven and you'll crush

1321
01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:05,960
Speaker 2: the sports betters too much.

1322
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:08,439
Speaker 10: Please, all right, I'm trying it. Hey, watch out for

1323
01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:10,559
Speaker 10: those overs people. They keep betting them. It's a low

1324
01:09:10,600 --> 01:09:11,400
Speaker 10: scoring games.

1325
01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:14,559
Speaker 2: There you go, there you go, all right, appreciate it.

1326
01:09:14,600 --> 01:09:18,600
Speaker 2: There is Christian Zippolini bet MGM trading manager. Okay, we

1327
01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:22,439

Speaker 2: lowand cronn I Low with the latest.

1329
01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:26,759
Speaker 7: Yeah, a lot of heavy hitters in Major League Baseball.

1330
01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:29,400
Speaker 8: On Saturday night, the Washington Nationals hit five of them,

1331
01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:31,719
Speaker 8: and if seven to three went over the Los Angeles Dodgers,

1332
01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:34,280
Speaker 8: including two by Nathaniel Low. The New York Mets hit

1333
01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:36,800
Speaker 8: seven in an eleven four win at Philadelphia to break

1334
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:39,759
Speaker 8: a seven game losing streak. One Soto and Brandon Nemo

1335
01:09:39,840 --> 01:09:42,479
Speaker 8: two home runs apiece. Mets and Phillies now tied for

1336
01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:44,360
Speaker 8: first in the NL East. In Game one of the

Speaker 8: the Indiana Pacers, and in anticipation. Let's once again take

1343
01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:09,799
Speaker 8: a special listen back to a classic Game seven intro,

1344
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:13,639
Speaker 8: this one from nineteen ninety four with Jim Fagan and

1345
01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:14,640
Speaker 8: Bob Costas.

1346
01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:21,520
Speaker 3: There we go, bitter views. Is there NBA on NBC.

1347
01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:33,120
Speaker 4: For nineteen ninety four NBA Finals.

1348
01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:32,639
Speaker 3: Good Night Pay.

1349
01:10:32,760 --> 01:10:36,000
Speaker 6: Seven between the New York Knicks and the Houston Ruckets.

1350
01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:38,720
Speaker 2: Definitely letting it breathe.

1351
01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:43,439
Speaker 6: Sometimes the waiting is the most difficult part. Excruciatingly difficult.

1352
01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:46,240
Speaker 6: In about seventy two hours, Sakim, Elijah On and the

1353

Speaker 6: Rocket's new they had survived to play a Game seven,

1354
01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:53,960
Speaker 6: the most important of their professional basketball lines. Maybe even

1355
01:10:54,000 --> 01:10:56,280
Speaker 6: more difficult for Patrick doing in the next save for

1356
01:10:56,400 --> 01:10:59,959
Speaker 6: the practices and the meetings, idling the time away anahots

01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:44,519
Speaker 2: is Fox Sports Radios Countdown presented by bet MGM. How

1374
01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:47,639
Speaker 2: about John Starks that game Game seven against the Rockets

1375
01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:54,160
Speaker 2: shooting a brisk eleven percent from the field. That nottt

1376
01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:57,320
Speaker 2: what you're looking for right there? So that's who won

1377
01:11:57,360 --> 01:11:59,040
Speaker 2: that game, the Rockets.

1378
01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:01,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, gets on that one and he shot.

1379
01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:04,040
Speaker 2: What eleven percent from the field in.

1380
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:07,559
Speaker 3: A win in a loss? I think that that's the

1381
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:11,040
Speaker 3: uh the Sabrino on Newski right, the one for eighteen

1382
01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:13,200
Speaker 3: in a championship gaming with the Aces last year or

1383
01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:16,920
Speaker 3: whatever it was. That's that's that's tough, you know, but

1384
01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:17,439
Speaker 3: they won't.

1385
01:12:17,479 --> 01:12:20,800
Speaker 2: So yeah, so take it, you know, let me say

1386
01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:23,240
Speaker 2: something to you real fast. We're up against it. We

1387
01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:24,840
Speaker 2: got to get to prop it up coming up here.

1388
01:12:24,880 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 2: But I heard something from an odd couple promo that

1389
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:32,520
Speaker 2: I thought was really interesting. So the promo was about

1390
01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:37,040
Speaker 2: the Dodgers getting involved with the Ice agents. Right, I'm

1391
01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:39,639
Speaker 2: sure you've heard this story where yes, Ice agents were

1392
01:12:39,760 --> 01:12:43,400
Speaker 2: on their way to Chavez Ravine. They're going to Dodger Stadium,

1393
01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:47,000
Speaker 2: and the Dodgers intervened and said, no, we're not allowing

1394
01:12:47,040 --> 01:12:50,400
Speaker 2: you access. And Rob g who's the producer of the

1395
01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,559
Speaker 2: Odd Couple, he got on the mic and he said,

1396
01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:56,200
Speaker 2: there are two very different reactions to this story. There

1397
01:12:56,240 --> 01:12:58,519
Speaker 2: are those that are fully on board, and then there

1398
01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:01,080
Speaker 2: are those that are like, I'm a former Dodger fan,

1399
01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:05,040
Speaker 2: and the only point I want to make is what

1400
01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:11,120
Speaker 2: happened to just disagreeing. I don't understand why it's this

1401
01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:14,519
Speaker 2: all in, all out mentality, Like you don't live your

1402
01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:18,320
Speaker 2: life like that. I can understand someone saying, hey, I

1403
01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:22,120
Speaker 2: just don't think they should get involved with the political issue.

1404
01:13:22,439 --> 01:13:24,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't agree with that personally, but I

1405
01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:28,559
Speaker 2: could see someone having that stance, fine, But to then

1406
01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:30,840
Speaker 2: take it to the next degree of and I'm a

1407
01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:34,040
Speaker 2: former Dodger fan. You don't live your life like that,

1408
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:37,360
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like if if my girlfriend

1409
01:13:37,680 --> 01:13:40,040
Speaker 2: doesn't put the dishes in the dishwasher, I'm not going

1410
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:41,920
Speaker 2: to live my life like I broke up with her.

1411
01:13:42,080 --> 01:13:44,800
Speaker 2: Can't have it, can't have dirty dishes, And she's gone

1412
01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:48,160
Speaker 2: out of here bye. See you. If I had a

1413
01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:50,400
Speaker 2: son and he didn't do his homework, not like I

1414
01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:51,800
Speaker 2: got rid of him, you know what I mean. Like,

1415
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,840
Speaker 2: there's so many people it blows my mind live their

1416
01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:58,320
Speaker 2: lives and react to stories that way. When they don't

1417
01:13:58,360 --> 01:14:00,559
Speaker 2: live their lives that way, it's easy to.

1418
01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:04,799
Speaker 3: Me, Well, I don't think those people are being honest,

1419
01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:06,240
Speaker 3: so that's part of it as well.

1420
01:14:06,280 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 2: Fair enough something they're.

1421
01:14:07,960 --> 01:14:09,679
Speaker 3: Saying those things. Same remember of the NFL.

1422
01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:13,920
Speaker 2: I've never watched the NFL. Ever, Okay, yeah, I.

1423
01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:16,920
Speaker 3: Don't believe that, so like that's part of it as well.

1424
01:14:16,960 --> 01:14:19,800
Speaker 3: I just don't believe these people. So it's it's easy

1425
01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:23,400
Speaker 3: to say that I'm not Dodger fan anymore. Also, like what,

1426
01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:27,559
Speaker 3: I don't even know this specific thing, and not allowing

1427
01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:31,839
Speaker 3: them to basically stage in Dodger Stadium. It's private property.

1428
01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:35,240
Speaker 3: You can't just take it over without a warrant. I

1429
01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:38,639
Speaker 3: guess in the situation, the Dodgers just said no. I'm

1430
01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:40,320
Speaker 3: sure they've said no other people too that want to

1431
01:14:40,400 --> 01:14:42,240
Speaker 3: use their parking lot. It's a giant parking lot, and

1432
01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:45,439
Speaker 3: that of downtown LA. It's a good place to be

1433
01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:47,800
Speaker 3: if you need to stage anything and they just said no,

1434
01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:52,280
Speaker 3: and so do people want do people? I don't want to.

1435
01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:56,439
Speaker 3: Let's not go there. I'll just say that the people

1436
01:14:56,479 --> 01:14:58,400
Speaker 3: that say I'm the longer Dodger fan are not real

1437
01:14:58,439 --> 01:15:02,960
Speaker 3: Dodger fans. That simple. Yeah, you know, I remember back

1438
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:07,280
Speaker 3: to when people in the NFL were kneeling and I

1439
01:15:08,160 --> 01:15:10,439
Speaker 3: I got a discussion with my dentist out of all

1440
01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:14,080
Speaker 3: people who said something like, I don't watch the NFL

1441
01:15:14,120 --> 01:15:16,720
Speaker 3: anymore because I used to like watching the anthem and

1442
01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:20,479
Speaker 3: it's ruined for me. And I said to him, you know,

1443
01:15:20,520 --> 01:15:22,760
Speaker 3: don't show the anthem on TV outside of like the

1444
01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:25,200
Speaker 3: Super Bowl, right, Like, that's not a thing that's ever done.

1445
01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:27,640
Speaker 3: So you're not if you're in person the anthem is

1446
01:15:27,680 --> 01:15:31,599
Speaker 3: being played, right, But otherwise the game comes on after

1447
01:15:31,600 --> 01:15:34,360
Speaker 3: the anthem on Sundays at like one oh two pm.

1448
01:15:34,439 --> 01:15:36,479
Speaker 3: The first kise, like, doesn't they don't show the anthem,

1449
01:15:36,720 --> 01:15:40,040
Speaker 3: So you're making up something to be angry about. You're

1450
01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:42,080
Speaker 3: not a real fan. You're not really actually watching the game.

1451
01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:44,320
Speaker 3: If you say I watched, I like watching the anthem.

1452
01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:47,320
Speaker 3: It's not something that we often see in NFL games

1453
01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:50,599
Speaker 3: on TV. Special occasions maybe Thanksgiving, right, they have a

1454
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:54,679
Speaker 3: special performing artist. Super Bowl maybe game one of the season.

1455
01:15:54,720 --> 01:15:57,679
Speaker 3: That's it. On an NFL Sunday, you see the anthem

1456
01:15:57,840 --> 01:16:00,160
Speaker 3: zero times. So that's the same thing, right that it's

1457
01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:02,240
Speaker 3: not a real football fan, someone who wants to be angry.

1458
01:16:02,680 --> 01:16:05,200
Speaker 3: The people say, I'm not Dodger fan anymore. You're not

1459
01:16:05,240 --> 01:16:07,360
Speaker 3: really Dodger fan. You're not really Dodger fan. You're just

1460
01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:08,400
Speaker 3: saying that to be angry.

1461
01:16:08,920 --> 01:16:09,720
Speaker 2: No, it's a good point.

1462
01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:14,040
Speaker 4: And yeah, being angry is something that's it's fashionable now,

1463
01:16:14,360 --> 01:16:18,280
Speaker 4: especially behind anonymity. And you know, we see that all

1464
01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:24,040
Speaker 4: the time. I've personally witnessed that many times in social media. Again,

1465
01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:25,880
Speaker 4: behind anonymity, you see that.

1466
01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:29,760
Speaker 2: So yeah, anyway, I know it's the desire to be

1467
01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:34,880
Speaker 2: angry or yep, so easily angered. It's it's really random, man,

1468
01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:36,840
Speaker 2: But I think it's at its peak right now. All Right,

1469
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:41,559
Speaker 2: We've got Bill Krakenberger, professional sports handicapper, Jeff Schwartz, eight

1488
01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:39,120
Speaker 4: His sister already over as a prop over fourteen and

1489
01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:42,519
Speaker 4: a half. It's going to go to an alternate total

1490
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:45,439
Speaker 4: on this game tonight. And just that we've had Christian

1491
01:17:45,520 --> 01:17:48,439
Speaker 4: on the head of bet MGM, and he was looking

1492
01:17:48,520 --> 01:17:51,679
Speaker 4: for some under money because he's getting all over money.

1493
01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:55,519
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna go to the alternate market. Let's go

1494
01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:57,519
Speaker 4: under the two eleven and a half and take a

1495
01:17:57,560 --> 01:18:00,640
Speaker 4: dollar thirty. It's always nice to take a plus a

1496
01:18:00,640 --> 01:18:02,880
Speaker 4: plus money there. So let's go on to two eleven

1497
01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:05,519
Speaker 4: and a half, just three points off the total and

1498
01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:08,000
Speaker 4: take some plus money.

1499
01:18:08,320 --> 01:18:12,120
Speaker 3: Fantastic. How many do you want? You want them all

1500
01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:12,600
Speaker 3: at once or.

1501
01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:15,000
Speaker 2: You yeah, go for it?

1502
01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:18,160
Speaker 3: Well, so carus Caruso's at nine and a half right now,

1503
01:18:18,160 --> 01:18:20,000
Speaker 3: at plus one hundred, it was eight and a half.

1504
01:18:20,120 --> 01:18:22,160
Speaker 3: I think you could wait maybe and possibly get eight

1505
01:18:22,160 --> 01:18:24,000
Speaker 3: and a half a little bit later today. I like

1506
01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:27,280
Speaker 3: Cruso on a bounce back twenty two minutes, no points.

1507
01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:29,920
Speaker 3: He's been two straight games now with not a lot

1508
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:33,120
Speaker 3: happening back home Game seven. They'll need him today as well.

1509
01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:41,439
Speaker 3: I I really despise myself for doing this, But where's

1517
01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:04,120
Speaker 3: don't like Rudy for chet Holmgren. But over twenty five

1518
01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:09,360
Speaker 3: point five rebounds in points. Okay, he's gonna bounce back today,

1519
01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:11,200
Speaker 3: I think, And they need him in a big weaight home.

1520
01:19:11,240 --> 01:19:12,920
Speaker 3: He's much better at home and he's in the road.

1521
01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:15,720
Speaker 3: Give me holmegrin here, and I have other ones who

1522
01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:16,719
Speaker 3: could we could do later.

1523
01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:20,880
Speaker 2: Should have a lot of rebounding opportunities right game seven,

1524
01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:25,280
Speaker 2: Maybe it's a quality look for the Pacers. Game seven,

1525
01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:27,840
Speaker 2: Clangetty Klang. You know, I think he's gonna have a

1526
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:30,479
Speaker 2: lot of rebounding opportunities. So I hear you on that,

1527
01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:35,080
Speaker 2: all right, crack the great great Zigzags five?

1528
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:35,760
Speaker 3: All right.

1529
01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:41,920
Speaker 2: TJ McConnell under three and a half rebounds? Okay, Now

1530
01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:45,640
Speaker 2: the think about this. He's had three separate games with

1531
01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:51,800
Speaker 2: only one rebound in this series. He had ten rebounds

1532
01:19:51,920 --> 01:19:56,200
Speaker 2: over the first five games. He had nine rebounds in

1533
01:19:56,240 --> 01:20:00,439
Speaker 2: the last game alone, nine rebounds. He turned into Ben

1534
01:20:00,479 --> 01:20:05,320
Speaker 2: Wallace before our eyes. He's not going for over three

1535
01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:08,120
Speaker 2: and a half rebounds. It's minus one forty on the under.

1536
01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:12,320
Speaker 2: I love it, okay, I'm all over the TJ under

1537
01:20:12,360 --> 01:20:15,080
Speaker 2: there all right? Coming up next? What is the formula

1538
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:21,439
Speaker 2: for a championship. Oh what is going on? Happy game

1539
01:20:21,640 --> 01:20:24,320
Speaker 2: seven Sunday to you. Hope your day is off to

1540
01:20:24,360 --> 01:20:27,599
Speaker 2: a great start. Oh, we got to get to a

1541
01:20:27,880 --> 01:20:34,479
Speaker 2: championship formula and also correlated parlays. I know you're all

1542
01:20:34,520 --> 01:20:37,120
Speaker 2: about this, crack. You know, let's dive into this real fast,

1543
01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:41,000
Speaker 2: because I was just a clinking around here on the

1544
01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:46,040
Speaker 2: bed mgm app And it's wild where I know, crack.

1545
01:20:46,080 --> 01:20:48,920
Speaker 2: You like the part the correlated parlays, and if you're

1546
01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:51,280
Speaker 2: going down that road, it makes a lot of sense

1547
01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:54,280
Speaker 2: for it to be correlated. Don't take this as me

1548
01:20:54,520 --> 01:20:57,880
Speaker 2: raging against that, because it's not. But if you can

1549
01:20:58,040 --> 01:21:03,880
Speaker 2: somehow find an uncorrelated parlay that makes sense, it can

1550
01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:08,600
Speaker 2: help your payout a ton. It's wild how much it differs. So,

1551
01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:14,400
Speaker 2: for instance, I just put in I had Jeff's earlier

1552
01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:17,200
Speaker 2: selection where he had OKC minus three and a half

1553
01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:19,960
Speaker 2: in the first quarter. I see a fast start as well.

1554
01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:23,400
Speaker 2: And then I just put in my latest selection for

1555
01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:26,080
Speaker 2: prop it up right, TJ McConnell under three and a

1556
01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:29,320
Speaker 2: half rebounds, And I was just curious, like, well, what

1557
01:21:29,400 --> 01:21:33,879
Speaker 2: would the payout be if I took OKC minus the points?

1558
01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:37,240
Speaker 2: So if you add OKC minus six and a half,

1559
01:21:38,400 --> 01:21:41,280
Speaker 2: your payout for that three leg parlay would be plus

1560
01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:46,600
Speaker 2: three fifty Okay, plus three fifty. If instead of OKC

1561
01:21:46,840 --> 01:21:51,280
Speaker 2: minus six and a half, you went with Indiana plus

1562
01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:55,360
Speaker 2: six and a half, your payout would be plus seven

1563
01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:59,200
Speaker 2: seventy five. Think about the difference between plus three point

1564
01:21:59,200 --> 01:22:03,240
Speaker 2: fifty and plus seven seventy five, Like, could you not

1565
01:22:03,479 --> 01:22:08,000
Speaker 2: see hot start for Okay, see but the zombie pacers?

1566
01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:10,280
Speaker 2: You know, zombies in a movie. They just keep coming

1567
01:22:10,320 --> 01:22:14,640
Speaker 2: after you slowly, and they're not dead yet, and all

1568
01:22:14,680 --> 01:22:16,880
Speaker 2: of a sudden it's a nail bier at the end.

1569
01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:20,080
Speaker 2: You can't see that happening. I could absolutely see that

1570
01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:23,640
Speaker 2: within reason of happening. The difference between those two is

1571
01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:28,360
Speaker 2: over four to one. Just the difference between that final leg,

1572
01:22:28,439 --> 01:22:29,439
Speaker 2: that blows my mind.

1573
01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:32,160
Speaker 4: It sounds like a lot. You're right, I'm on the

1574
01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:34,920
Speaker 4: MTM app now look at that myself, just to look

1575
01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:38,559
Speaker 4: at to see these differences. I don't think about them

1576
01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:42,120
Speaker 4: too much because I'm not a parlay better. However, we're

1577
01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:46,680
Speaker 4: talking the situational here of correlated or the opposite of correlated.

1578
01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:50,639
Speaker 4: So and that's the reason why I guess you're getting

1579
01:22:50,680 --> 01:22:53,160
Speaker 4: that difference, they would you say, it's plus seven and

1580
01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:53,960
Speaker 4: a half the one.

1581
01:22:54,080 --> 01:22:54,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1582
01:22:54,400 --> 01:22:54,639
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1583
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:57,559
Speaker 2: If you went with Indiana last leg plus the points,

1584
01:22:57,560 --> 01:23:01,759
Speaker 2: it's plus seven seventy five. If you took OKC minus

1585
01:23:01,760 --> 01:23:03,839
Speaker 2: the points, it's true plus three fifty.

1586
01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:07,160
Speaker 4: Sure they're really thinking it's correlated. You know, I have

1587
01:23:07,320 --> 01:23:10,280
Speaker 4: waived the white towel on all my shows across all

1588
01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:13,639
Speaker 4: my platforms because and when I say that is no

1589
01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:16,439
Speaker 4: matter what I know my boys when they come in

1590
01:23:16,479 --> 01:23:19,439
Speaker 4: from New York, New Jersey, South Philly, I know what

1591
01:23:19,479 --> 01:23:21,920
Speaker 4: they're doing in Vegas. If they're coming in with two

1592
01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:24,680
Speaker 4: thousand bucks, they're not betting two to three percent of

1593
01:23:24,720 --> 01:23:28,439
Speaker 4: your bankroll, not even five percent. They're firing four games,

1594
01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:30,840
Speaker 4: five hundred each. If they lose that, they're going to

1595
01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:32,960
Speaker 4: the credit cards. They lose that, they're going to over

1596
01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:36,479
Speaker 4: the Western Union. I mean, you know, for anyone that

1597
01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:40,479
Speaker 4: is pre nineteen ninety at Western Unions, there used to

1598
01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:43,519
Speaker 4: be only one on the strip of the old Barbary Coast.

1599
01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:46,320
Speaker 4: It was always lined up for people were sending money.

1600
01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:48,840
Speaker 4: It's funny. No one ever sent money there. Everyone always

1601
01:23:48,880 --> 01:23:52,240
Speaker 4: received money. So but going back to what I'm saying,

1602
01:23:52,320 --> 01:23:57,600
Speaker 4: is I do when I say I wave the white towel,

1603
01:23:57,880 --> 01:24:00,720
Speaker 4: I have no Boy's gonna be hard to say this.

1604
01:24:01,160 --> 01:24:05,080
Speaker 4: I have no problem with someone betting a peanut parlay.

1605
01:24:05,680 --> 01:24:07,920
Speaker 4: And let's say they want they have four games they

1606
01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:09,960
Speaker 4: like and they're going about one hundred bucks each if

1607
01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:11,960
Speaker 4: you want a better four team or for ten bucks.

1608
01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:14,280
Speaker 4: It's negative TV, But go ahead, do you have some

1609
01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:18,519
Speaker 4: fun root for it? Throughout the years, when I did

1610
01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:20,519
Speaker 4: this show for a whole year with you guys, I

1611
01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:24,559
Speaker 4: had no idea. The Schwartz syndicate was fire and six

1612
01:24:24,680 --> 01:24:26,520
Speaker 4: seven eight parlays on Sundays.

1613
01:24:26,680 --> 01:24:29,639
Speaker 3: I found this that is not true at all. One

1614
01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:36,960
Speaker 3: money line parlay every Saturday and Sunday it always it

1615
01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:39,760
Speaker 3: always lost by one leg because that's how parlays lose, right,

1616
01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:43,320
Speaker 3: like you get seven of eight. It's always like I

1617
01:24:43,320 --> 01:24:48,080
Speaker 3: always added one sort of about even money or maybe

1618
01:24:48,080 --> 01:24:51,200
Speaker 3: even one slight dog that one always hits, because you know,

1619
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:52,840
Speaker 3: that makes a parlay go from eight to one to

1620
01:24:52,920 --> 01:24:55,639
Speaker 3: sixteen to one right to one. That one always hits.

1621
01:24:55,880 --> 01:24:59,000
Speaker 3: But it's the minus three hundred favorites that just that loses,

1622
01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:02,200
Speaker 3: right of course, So I know, Crackle love my my

1623
01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:06,960
Speaker 3: blocks parlay for the final hit a thirty I think

1624
01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:09,599
Speaker 3: it was. Yeah, and you're right though.

1625
01:25:09,479 --> 01:25:12,160
Speaker 4: Why Jeff, why is that? Why is it? And Brian too,

1626
01:25:12,760 --> 01:25:16,479
Speaker 4: why is it only one leg? It comes down to

1627
01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:18,240
Speaker 4: that one leg that loses.

1628
01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:20,720
Speaker 3: Because it was because it was easy, everyone will do it.

1629
01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:21,599
Speaker 3: I guess right.

1630
01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:27,120
Speaker 2: It's what you say, nothing easy, No easy wins.

1631
01:25:24,400 --> 01:25:24,479
Speaker 5: No.

1632
01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:29,560
Speaker 3: Easy wins. That's why. Yeah, look the parlor. Look we

1633
01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:31,759
Speaker 3: talked about all the time, right, it's about bakewell management.

1634
01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:36,320
Speaker 3: You know, if you do a parlay, just make sure

1635
01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:41,080
Speaker 3: it's it's reasonable, it's manageable. And you know I it's

1636
01:25:41,200 --> 01:25:43,479
Speaker 3: that's device we give. We give everyone all the time.

1637
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:47,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, all right. If you guys look at the

1638
01:25:47,439 --> 01:25:51,080
Speaker 2: formula to win it all for each team. Okay, we'll

1639
01:25:51,080 --> 01:25:54,840
Speaker 2: start with the Thunder. What do you think the formula

1640
01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:56,639
Speaker 2: is for them to win game seven?

1641
01:25:57,120 --> 01:25:57,320
Speaker 1: Right?

1642
01:25:57,360 --> 01:25:59,200
Speaker 2: Like I would start off, You think about the Heels

1643
01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:01,040
Speaker 2: the last game. You got take care of the basketball.

1644
01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:03,519
Speaker 2: Look at all the turnovers in game six. They had

1645
01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:06,879
Speaker 2: twenty three turnovers that led to thirty two Pacer points.

1646
01:26:07,280 --> 01:26:09,599
Speaker 2: If you just take care of the basketball, your defense

1647
01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:12,880
Speaker 2: should be nasty. It typically is, and you have all

1648
01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:17,160
Speaker 2: these advantages with your depth, your front line players. Halliburton's

1649
01:26:17,160 --> 01:26:19,880
Speaker 2: banged up, just take care of the basketball. If the

1650
01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:22,719
Speaker 2: thunder do that, that's a big part of them winning tonight.

1651
01:26:23,080 --> 01:26:24,920
Speaker 2: What else would you add to that? The formula for

1652
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:27,679
Speaker 2: OKC assist assist.

1653
01:26:28,320 --> 01:26:31,120
Speaker 3: When they have a high assist total, they win. And

1654
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:33,960
Speaker 3: I know Game four is the outlier with SJF zero

1655
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:35,920
Speaker 3: was it game four? Game five was zero assist and

1656
01:26:35,920 --> 01:26:39,160
Speaker 3: they won. It was Game four, right, zero assist and

1657
01:26:39,200 --> 01:26:42,400
Speaker 3: they won. When they have a bunch of assists, that

1658
01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:44,519
Speaker 3: means they're sharing the ball, guys are making their threes.

1659
01:26:44,600 --> 01:26:46,840
Speaker 3: I mean, they're not a prolific three point shooting team

1660
01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:50,000
Speaker 3: in the postseason, and they were certainly not last game,

1661
01:26:50,080 --> 01:26:53,880
Speaker 3: but they can be. And if the ball is being

1662
01:26:53,960 --> 01:26:58,320
Speaker 3: shared around and they're in that twenty the twenty five

1663
01:26:58,360 --> 01:27:01,080
Speaker 3: assist range, they win a lot other basketball games. That

1664
01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:03,479
Speaker 3: means are making their shots, the balls moving, it's not

1665
01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:06,280
Speaker 3: an SG eight. And also you know when the ball's

1666
01:27:06,320 --> 01:27:08,200
Speaker 3: moving like that, guys are making shots, that opens up

1667
01:27:08,200 --> 01:27:10,320
Speaker 3: more room for SG to do what he has to do,

1668
01:27:10,760 --> 01:27:14,280
Speaker 3: gains the paint, hitting some of those those those those

1669
01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:17,320
Speaker 3: mid range shots. So that to me is a formula

1670
01:27:17,360 --> 01:27:19,679
Speaker 3: for their success. Is there assist number over.

1671
01:27:19,520 --> 01:27:23,559
Speaker 4: Twenty Okay, Yeah, Like we talked a little bit about

1672
01:27:23,600 --> 01:27:28,519
Speaker 4: this before. In these game sevens, Uh, usually defense grinded

1673
01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:31,880
Speaker 4: out battles. Okac is gonna have to hit them. Like

1674
01:27:31,920 --> 01:27:34,800
Speaker 4: I said, they're open freeze. They have not shot. They

1675
01:27:34,880 --> 01:27:38,559
Speaker 4: really haven't shot at great this series and aren't a

1676
01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:41,240
Speaker 4: great three point team in general. But the Pacers are

1677
01:27:41,240 --> 01:27:44,400
Speaker 4: giving them some outlooks deep, so they have to hit

1678
01:27:44,479 --> 01:27:47,559
Speaker 4: those those shots. Uh. They have to get some production

1679
01:27:47,640 --> 01:27:50,760
Speaker 4: out of their bench also to keep their starters fresh,

1680
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:53,720
Speaker 4: especially in the fourth quarter. Uh, they're gonna have to

1681
01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:55,639
Speaker 4: get those free you know, get to the free throw

1682
01:27:55,760 --> 01:28:00,320
Speaker 4: line a lot more. For the Pacers. Halliburton look pretty

1683
01:28:00,320 --> 01:28:03,599
Speaker 4: good in Game six, like his injury really wasn't holding

1684
01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:07,439
Speaker 4: him back. They have had success in this series turning

1685
01:28:07,479 --> 01:28:10,880
Speaker 4: the turning the thunder over. They if they want to

1686
01:28:11,240 --> 01:28:13,640
Speaker 4: win tonight, they will need to force a lot of

1687
01:28:13,640 --> 01:28:18,719
Speaker 4: those turnovers. So Siakam has been key in this series.

1688
01:28:18,760 --> 01:28:19,040
Speaker 3: Also.

1689
01:28:19,040 --> 01:28:21,479
Speaker 4: I think he's gonna need a big game tonight if

1690
01:28:21,479 --> 01:28:23,880
Speaker 4: the Pacers want to pull off this upset. And you

1691
01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:27,280
Speaker 4: know it's only seven points, but it still is an upset.

1692
01:28:27,360 --> 01:28:32,479
Speaker 4: So especially after game one and game out. Man, people

1693
01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:36,479
Speaker 4: were people were just the money that they took here

1694
01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:40,880
Speaker 4: in Vegas. Vegas is rooting. Uh probably, I'm thinking now

1695
01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:42,920
Speaker 4: they got some even action, a little bit more even,

1696
01:28:42,960 --> 01:28:44,559
Speaker 4: but they took so much.

1697
01:28:44,680 --> 01:28:45,080
Speaker 3: Okay.

1698
01:28:45,080 --> 01:28:47,439
Speaker 4: See I took the two different bookmakers here in town

1699
01:28:47,680 --> 01:28:51,439
Speaker 4: that run big sports books here in town, and they

1700
01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:56,559
Speaker 4: got nothing but okay s money line. Uh you know,

1701
01:28:56,960 --> 01:29:01,320
Speaker 4: after after that game and they just literally were saying

1702
01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:03,840
Speaker 4: that they probably can't get enough on Indiana. They're probably

1703
01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:06,439
Speaker 4: just gonna be rooting for Indiana in this series. Now,

1704
01:29:06,439 --> 01:29:09,600
Speaker 4: I don't know after yesterday's game though, what happens. You know,

1705
01:29:09,680 --> 01:29:13,559
Speaker 4: it's funny I shouldn't say yesterday the game six. It's

1706
01:29:13,600 --> 01:29:16,839
Speaker 4: funny thinking about though, how much more money in volume.

1707
01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:19,080
Speaker 4: Herbert Christian said, this is going to be their number

1708
01:29:19,240 --> 01:29:24,400
Speaker 4: one volume sports betting game in the NBA of all

1709
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,920
Speaker 4: time since they've been taking bets. Just think about that now. Now,

1710
01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:31,720
Speaker 4: if it didn't come down to Game seven, you know,

1711
01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:33,960
Speaker 4: I don't know how the sportsbook maybe would have fared.

1712
01:29:34,920 --> 01:29:38,760
Speaker 4: But this game seven, lots more volume on props, lots

1713
01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:42,640
Speaker 4: more volume side and total Sunday Night couldn't ask for

1714
01:29:42,680 --> 01:29:46,479
Speaker 4: anything better again one of the other one other reason

1715
01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:49,120
Speaker 4: why Bill Krachenberger will not be getting out the collection

1716
01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:52,880
Speaker 4: bucket anytime throughout the year for bookmakers.

1717
01:29:53,479 --> 01:29:55,760
Speaker 2: Okay, Craig, you touched on it. If you're looking for

1718
01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:59,040
Speaker 2: the formula for the Pacers to win Game seven pull

1719
01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:01,720
Speaker 2: off a stunt, not just in Game seven, but the

1720
01:30:01,760 --> 01:30:04,640
Speaker 2: series as a whole, it starts with what I just

1721
01:30:04,680 --> 01:30:06,639
Speaker 2: said with Okay, see, I think it's even more important

1722
01:30:06,640 --> 01:30:09,519
Speaker 2: for the Pacers take care of the basketball. They've been

1723
01:30:09,600 --> 01:30:14,000
Speaker 2: plagued by turnovers in multiple games in this series, and

1724
01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:15,840
Speaker 2: so you got to take care of the ball, and

1725
01:30:15,880 --> 01:30:18,960
Speaker 2: this sounds like something that would fly in the face

1726
01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:21,080
Speaker 2: of that. I also think they have to play fast.

1727
01:30:21,640 --> 01:30:25,759
Speaker 2: You know, Jeff, you always talk about the bad Celtics offense.

1728
01:30:25,840 --> 01:30:29,040
Speaker 2: It's not always bad, but like the Tatum dribbles for

1729
01:30:29,120 --> 01:30:32,439
Speaker 2: twenty seconds and then just ISOs and puts up a shot.

1730
01:30:32,880 --> 01:30:36,519
Speaker 2: Like the Pacers, that's not what makes them special. These

1731
01:30:36,560 --> 01:30:39,600
Speaker 2: game sevens that turn into grinders, and let's say the

1732
01:30:40,080 --> 01:30:43,760
Speaker 2: shot clock is winding down at the very end, that's

1733
01:30:43,760 --> 01:30:47,559
Speaker 2: not what makes the Pacers special. They play with a

1734
01:30:47,680 --> 01:30:51,360
Speaker 2: quick pace, they move the ball, there's action, there's movement.

1735
01:30:52,240 --> 01:30:55,840
Speaker 2: This like slow it down, value each possession like your

1736
01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:58,479
Speaker 2: life depends on it. That's not what makes them specials.

1737
01:30:58,640 --> 01:31:01,559
Speaker 2: They got to play fast. They have to play with pace,

1738
01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:06,080
Speaker 2: and that can lead to being at more risk for

1739
01:31:06,160 --> 01:31:08,160
Speaker 2: turning the ball over. But they have to walk that

1740
01:31:08,240 --> 01:31:10,439
Speaker 2: line because if they get too slow, I think they're

1741
01:31:10,439 --> 01:31:12,439
Speaker 2: freaking done. I don't think they have a chance if

1742
01:31:12,439 --> 01:31:13,559
Speaker 2: they're too slow tonight.

1743
01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:19,280
Speaker 3: So part of that is is Okac missing right, because

1744
01:31:19,320 --> 01:31:21,920
Speaker 3: when you miss, you get the rebound and you go right.

1745
01:31:22,479 --> 01:31:25,840
Speaker 3: If Okase's making their shots tonight, that really severely limits

1746
01:31:25,880 --> 01:31:28,200
Speaker 3: the ability to go fast right. It allows them to

1747
01:31:28,200 --> 01:31:32,160
Speaker 3: set up their defense. And I think too I mentioned

1748
01:31:32,160 --> 01:31:38,360
Speaker 3: this earlier today. Games four and five, the Thunder tried

1749
01:31:38,400 --> 01:31:41,120
Speaker 3: to pick up holly Burn super early in the possession

1750
01:31:41,320 --> 01:31:44,879
Speaker 3: half court, but even thirty five feet away, maybe sometimes

1751
01:31:44,880 --> 01:31:47,439
Speaker 3: full court, and they just didn't do that in Game six,

1752
01:31:47,479 --> 01:31:50,479
Speaker 3: I don't think again they thought that he wasn't healthy enough.

1753
01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:51,920
Speaker 3: So I think they're going to go back to doing

1754
01:31:51,920 --> 01:31:54,240
Speaker 3: that again tonight, which again can slow down the Pacers offense.

1755
01:31:54,320 --> 01:31:55,960
Speaker 3: Right if we make sure that we try to get

1756
01:31:56,240 --> 01:31:59,960
Speaker 3: some pressure on Hollyburn early, really test this calf out,

1757
01:32:00,640 --> 01:32:03,360
Speaker 3: that can really slow down the Pacers offense. You're right.

1758
01:32:03,479 --> 01:32:06,200
Speaker 3: When they're when they're out and running and making plays

1759
01:32:06,200 --> 01:32:10,320
Speaker 3: and shooting open, open threes, they have a chance to

1760
01:32:10,520 --> 01:32:14,720
Speaker 3: make some magic. And two, if if Miles Turner can

1761
01:32:14,720 --> 01:32:17,400
Speaker 3: start making shots again, that that changes how obviously they

1762
01:32:17,439 --> 01:32:19,759
Speaker 3: can they can play, how up tempo they can play.

1763
01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:23,360
Speaker 3: You know, Mathern has done nothing for a couple of games.

1764
01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:25,120
Speaker 3: Now is it's gonna be a mather Aron twenty five

1765
01:32:25,160 --> 01:32:27,400
Speaker 3: point game. He makes him go a little more up

1766
01:32:27,400 --> 01:32:31,559
Speaker 3: tempo because you're absolutely right tempo tempo and you know,

1767
01:32:31,640 --> 01:32:36,440
Speaker 3: okay again, okay, see missing shots and and and getting rebounds.

1768
01:32:37,600 --> 01:32:42,080
Speaker 3: I believe correct me, I'm wrong. Brian chad Holmger has

1769
01:32:42,120 --> 01:32:45,200
Speaker 3: a four rebound lead over Sea Oakham right now for

1770
01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:46,719
Speaker 3: most rebounds in the series.

1771
01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:50,200
Speaker 2: I haven't checked, but it's you're probably right about that.

1772
01:32:50,640 --> 01:32:52,880
Speaker 3: It's super stunning that Seacom is even here, to be

1773
01:32:52,880 --> 01:32:55,920
Speaker 3: honest with, He's not a rebounding machine. Yeah, so you know, again,

1774
01:32:55,920 --> 01:32:58,400
Speaker 3: if Sacam has twelve rebounds, that probably means things are

1775
01:32:58,439 --> 01:33:01,200
Speaker 3: going well. If he has a winning that that rebounding

1776
01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:06,160
Speaker 3: proper probably means that we're seeing some really good play

1777
01:33:06,200 --> 01:33:08,519
Speaker 3: from him and they're missing a lot of shots are

1778
01:33:08,520 --> 01:33:13,519
Speaker 3: the Thunder so again Game seven and a home. I

1779
01:33:13,640 --> 01:33:17,920
Speaker 3: like the Thunders their tempo and pace and their role players.

1780
01:33:17,920 --> 01:33:22,160
Speaker 4: Tonight, guys, I'm just looking at the quarter lines here.

1781
01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:27,240
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what, MGM. Many things are not really

1782
01:33:27,240 --> 01:33:31,000
Speaker 4: surprising to me. I guess, but you know you don't

1783
01:33:31,040 --> 01:33:34,759
Speaker 4: expect a book with so much volume to have lines

1784
01:33:34,840 --> 01:33:37,280
Speaker 4: like that be a to be looking for a bet.

1785
01:33:37,320 --> 01:33:39,840
Speaker 4: In other words, there's no six and a half's out there.

1786
01:33:39,920 --> 01:33:42,559
Speaker 4: Since we're on air, it actually moved three cents even more.

1787
01:33:42,560 --> 01:33:44,720
Speaker 4: It was minus six and a half minus eighteen. Now

1788
01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:47,400
Speaker 4: it's minus six and a half minus fifteen. And they

1789
01:33:47,400 --> 01:33:50,040
Speaker 4: also have the only, well not the only, but one

1790
01:33:50,040 --> 01:33:52,760
Speaker 4: of the only three and a half's out there on

1791
01:33:52,800 --> 01:33:56,320
Speaker 4: the first on the first quarter. There's a lot of

1792
01:33:56,439 --> 01:33:58,880
Speaker 4: a lot of threes out there. They have three and

1793
01:33:58,920 --> 01:34:01,360
Speaker 4: a half, so they're with you, guys. They think that

1794
01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:05,759
Speaker 4: Thunder is gonna come out in the first quarter. If anything,

1795
01:34:05,800 --> 01:34:09,400
Speaker 4: I would maybe go more towards the money line first quarter,

1796
01:34:09,439 --> 01:34:13,080
Speaker 4: but nuts, I'm staying away from that and my old

1797
01:34:13,120 --> 01:34:14,759
Speaker 4: line that I used during football season.

1798
01:34:15,439 --> 01:34:18,920
Speaker 2: I'm rooting for you, guys. I'll tell you one other thing,

1799
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:23,320
Speaker 2: to keep in mind how the minutes are distributed with OKC.

1800
01:34:23,520 --> 01:34:26,639
Speaker 2: If you look at Mark Dagnault, I call him Mini TIBs.

1801
01:34:26,920 --> 01:34:29,800
Speaker 2: You know, he doesn't have the Tom Thibodeaux reputation, but

1802
01:34:30,400 --> 01:34:35,400
Speaker 2: in multiple playoff games in this NBA Finals series, he's

1803
01:34:35,400 --> 01:34:39,160
Speaker 2: played his starters huge minutes. Sga has played at least

1804
01:34:39,240 --> 01:34:41,880
Speaker 2: forty minutes in three of the six games, like half

1805
01:34:41,920 --> 01:34:46,479
Speaker 2: of the games at Jalen Williams plays heavy minutes. So

1806
01:34:46,560 --> 01:34:49,400
Speaker 2: it's something to keep in mind, right, because it could

1807
01:34:49,479 --> 01:34:51,200
Speaker 2: play out this way. If you look at the Pacers,

1808
01:34:51,200 --> 01:34:54,759
Speaker 2: they've already made NBA playoff history. Indiana is the first

1809
01:34:54,760 --> 01:34:58,479
Speaker 2: team to have eight players with two hundred plus points

1810
01:34:58,560 --> 01:35:01,679
Speaker 2: in a single postseason. So we know about the Pacers depth,

1811
01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:05,240
Speaker 2: and so keep it in mind, right if you're seeing Sga,

1812
01:35:05,400 --> 01:35:09,240
Speaker 2: Jalen Williams, the starters getting heavy minutes, not a ton

1813
01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:11,640
Speaker 2: of minutes for the bench guys. Yeah, you could have

1814
01:35:11,680 --> 01:35:15,759
Speaker 2: a situation where it's the Pacers doing their normal rotation,

1815
01:35:15,960 --> 01:35:20,519
Speaker 2: playing ten dudes right against the pace against the OKC

1816
01:35:20,720 --> 01:35:23,760
Speaker 2: who's going primarily with their starters. It's something to keep

1817
01:35:23,760 --> 01:35:26,439
Speaker 2: in mind for a Game seven that could become just

1818
01:35:26,560 --> 01:35:31,280
Speaker 2: this defensive grinder, you know type game. You could get

1819
01:35:31,360 --> 01:35:34,080
Speaker 2: real tired playing defense like that for that long if

1820
01:35:34,080 --> 01:35:35,479
Speaker 2: the starters play huge minutes.

1821
01:35:36,640 --> 01:35:38,479
Speaker 3: I'm glad you mentioned this, Brian, because one thing that

1822
01:35:38,479 --> 01:35:42,600
Speaker 3: I find so interesting about the series is Dagnolt, the

1823
01:35:42,640 --> 01:35:48,000
Speaker 3: Thunder coach, doesn't have his five he trust, and he's

1824
01:35:48,040 --> 01:35:52,280
Speaker 3: trying to figure out who those five are in every game,

1825
01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:56,479
Speaker 3: and the Pacers have the rotation. So now they might

1826
01:35:56,560 --> 01:35:59,200
Speaker 3: have a game where like Shepherd plays more than Mathren.

1827
01:35:59,280 --> 01:36:02,519
Speaker 3: You know, of course, like that happens because one guy's

1828
01:36:02,560 --> 01:36:04,519
Speaker 3: hotter than the other, one sort of on off right,

1829
01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:08,720
Speaker 3: But like he knows his five, who the what's the

1830
01:36:08,840 --> 01:36:11,880
Speaker 3: five the optimal five for the Thunder. I feel like

1831
01:36:11,920 --> 01:36:15,120
Speaker 3: that he hasn't know yet. And the rotations in this

1832
01:36:15,320 --> 01:36:17,200
Speaker 3: series have been like do we start two big guys?

1833
01:36:17,200 --> 01:36:19,360
Speaker 3: Do we not? Then second half of Game six they

1834
01:36:19,560 --> 01:36:22,599
Speaker 3: started Caruso instead of Harden seeing and then sometimes they

1835
01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:25,799
Speaker 3: want to play the five small guys and sometimes they

1836
01:36:25,880 --> 01:36:27,760
Speaker 3: don't know, and that's what makes us so intriguing. Hitting

1837
01:36:27,760 --> 01:36:30,280
Speaker 3: in Game seven is like DoD I think they start

1838
01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:31,840
Speaker 3: two bigs again. I think you just have to. That's

1839
01:36:31,840 --> 01:36:33,479
Speaker 3: what your starting lineup has been all season, like you

1840
01:36:33,479 --> 01:36:35,600
Speaker 3: could go to but there's an argument that that the

1841
01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:39,919
Speaker 3: Case and Wall Walls lineup is is better, the Caruso

1842
01:36:40,000 --> 01:36:42,920
Speaker 3: lineup is better. Like I don't know. Basically that means

1843
01:36:42,920 --> 01:36:44,160
Speaker 3: hard and Scenes out and they put one of the

1844
01:36:44,160 --> 01:36:47,719
Speaker 3: other guys in for him. You know that that if

1845
01:36:48,040 --> 01:36:49,960
Speaker 3: if Chet's making a bunch of shots, say maybe he's

1846
01:36:49,960 --> 01:36:52,639
Speaker 3: the optimal guy. Harden Scene can go for twelve and eight.

1847
01:36:52,680 --> 01:36:55,679
Speaker 3: Maybe they they don't know which is which is why

1848
01:36:55,720 --> 01:36:58,920
Speaker 3: in the regular season they're so good because their depth

1849
01:36:59,000 --> 01:37:01,759
Speaker 3: is so big. Their depth is But in this series

1850
01:37:01,800 --> 01:37:04,559
Speaker 3: like this, you have to game seven, five minutes left,

1851
01:37:04,600 --> 01:37:07,840
Speaker 3: four point game. Who do you think, Okay, right, five

1852
01:37:07,880 --> 01:37:11,800
Speaker 3: minutes left, four point game. Who are the thunder putting

1853
01:37:11,840 --> 01:37:12,560
Speaker 3: on the court.

1854
01:37:13,120 --> 01:37:16,760
Speaker 2: It's gonna be Sga Jalen Williams. You probably have Chat

1855
01:37:16,800 --> 01:37:21,200
Speaker 2: out there, probably for defense. Yeah, who's the fifth that's

1856
01:37:21,240 --> 01:37:23,800
Speaker 2: the thing, might be Caruso. You might have Caruso out

1857
01:37:23,840 --> 01:37:27,000
Speaker 2: there instead of Hartenstein or Wallis. If he's playing well,

1858
01:37:27,240 --> 01:37:28,760
Speaker 2: maybe yeah, have him.

1859
01:37:29,160 --> 01:37:31,280
Speaker 3: I feel like the Pacers have their five, and that's

1860
01:37:31,280 --> 01:37:33,760
Speaker 3: a big difference in the series. The Pacers have their

1861
01:37:33,800 --> 01:37:37,439
Speaker 3: five guys, and you know, maybe Obi toppins in instead

1862
01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:39,479
Speaker 3: of Miles Turner. You know, just depending on how those

1863
01:37:39,479 --> 01:37:42,040
Speaker 3: guys are playing. But like the five are in the

1864
01:37:42,040 --> 01:37:46,599
Speaker 3: five right, it's Hally Burton, Siakamnie Smith, Nemhart and then

1865
01:37:46,640 --> 01:37:48,760
Speaker 3: again a big guy who depending on the game.

1866
01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:51,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you know, I think the Thunder have to

1867
01:37:51,520 --> 01:37:53,680
Speaker 4: play their role. Guys during the first three quarters are

1868
01:37:53,680 --> 01:37:56,080
Speaker 4: going to keep their starters fresh for the fourth. Right,

1869
01:37:56,400 --> 01:37:59,280
Speaker 4: These game sevens are typically grueling types of games that

1870
01:37:59,320 --> 01:38:04,240
Speaker 4: are uh literal, physically emotionally raining. The Pacers have great depth,

1871
01:38:04,479 --> 01:38:06,880
Speaker 4: as you guys have said, so you expect their starters

1872
01:38:06,920 --> 01:38:10,040
Speaker 4: to be fresh late in the game. We've seen that

1873
01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:13,599
Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter of these series of the series,

1874
01:38:14,080 --> 01:38:17,160
Speaker 4: the Thunder starters looked like they just didn't have the

1875
01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:19,760
Speaker 4: energy late in the game that the Pacers had. It

1876
01:38:19,800 --> 01:38:22,559
Speaker 4: would be key tonight really for the Thunder bench to

1877
01:38:22,600 --> 01:38:26,000
Speaker 4: get quality minutes so that Sga and Williamson are at

1878
01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:28,840
Speaker 4: full strength the last Like you said, let's use that

1879
01:38:28,920 --> 01:38:30,240
Speaker 4: the last five minutes of the game.

1880
01:38:30,439 --> 01:38:33,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a great point, Krack, And think back to

1881
01:38:33,120 --> 01:38:36,400
Speaker 2: where this series started to turn. It was game four, right,

1882
01:38:36,479 --> 01:38:39,599
Speaker 2: the Thunder were facing a three to one deficit, if

1883
01:38:39,600 --> 01:38:43,160
Speaker 2: they lost that game and SGA got rest in the

1884
01:38:43,200 --> 01:38:46,160
Speaker 2: first quarter. He had played the full first quarter the

1885
01:38:46,200 --> 01:38:50,280
Speaker 2: previous nine straight games, all twelve minutes, and in that

1886
01:38:50,360 --> 01:38:53,320
Speaker 2: Game four, he rested for at least four minutes in

1887
01:38:53,360 --> 01:38:55,799
Speaker 2: the first quarter, and even though he played forty minutes

1888
01:38:55,800 --> 01:38:58,920
Speaker 2: in the game. Yeah, that was a big difference. That

1889
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:01,800
Speaker 2: was a big deal. Thirty five points. You have a

1890
01:39:01,840 --> 01:39:04,200
Speaker 2: special down the stretch at a couple of huge shots

1891
01:39:04,200 --> 01:39:07,080
Speaker 2: in the final three minutes. Pacer fans will point out

1892
01:39:07,080 --> 01:39:10,200
Speaker 2: the push off aniseman, but he had some huge shots

1893
01:39:10,240 --> 01:39:12,320
Speaker 2: and he had the energy to do that. So keep

1894
01:39:12,320 --> 01:39:14,760
Speaker 2: that in mind. How much does SGA rest in the

1895
01:39:14,760 --> 01:39:17,679
Speaker 2: first quarter in the first half, because he's gonna need

1896
01:39:17,720 --> 01:39:20,280
Speaker 2: that rest late in the game. There's no doubt.

1897
01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:25,320
Speaker 3: They have changed their substution pattern with him in since

1898
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:27,920
Speaker 3: Game four where he does get that first quarter rest.

1899
01:39:28,600 --> 01:39:30,080
Speaker 3: For those who might not pay attention to, just like

1900
01:39:30,080 --> 01:39:34,160
Speaker 3: I think Brian and I do, most often, the superstar

1901
01:39:34,200 --> 01:39:36,640
Speaker 3: plays the full first quarter and then takes off the

1902
01:39:36,640 --> 01:39:38,840
Speaker 3: first three minutes three to six minutes the second quarter.

1903
01:39:39,400 --> 01:39:41,880
Speaker 3: Now some play nine minutes and then take off and

1904
01:39:41,920 --> 01:39:44,240
Speaker 3: then come back like there's but most and now SGA

1905
01:39:44,360 --> 01:39:46,240
Speaker 3: is coming out with like six minutes off the first quarter.

1906
01:39:46,320 --> 01:39:49,040
Speaker 3: He's getting more rest early in the game, which might

1907
01:39:49,080 --> 01:39:51,080
Speaker 3: effect if you want to wager on first quarter points

1908
01:39:51,160 --> 01:39:53,080
Speaker 3: or first quarter this and that. I don't feel it's

1909
01:39:53,120 --> 01:39:54,800
Speaker 3: gonna be my first quarter wager if sj is not

1910
01:39:54,800 --> 01:39:57,840
Speaker 3: in the lineup in the first quarter. Right, But like that,

1911
01:39:57,880 --> 01:40:00,280
Speaker 3: because again, like I said, most of the time, we

1912
01:40:00,560 --> 01:40:02,559
Speaker 3: did this in the postseason where we faded the Nuggets

1913
01:40:02,560 --> 01:40:05,479
Speaker 3: the first race to ten points because Jokic didn't play

1914
01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:07,360
Speaker 3: in the start of the second quarter. But then they

1915
01:40:07,439 --> 01:40:10,880
Speaker 3: changed their rotation up one game because they had to,

1916
01:40:11,479 --> 01:40:14,760
Speaker 3: and I got screwed. I mean, this is worse, right, right,

1917
01:40:14,800 --> 01:40:18,240
Speaker 3: But it's just worth noting that they have changed the

1918
01:40:18,280 --> 01:40:22,280
Speaker 3: pattern for his substitution, and so, like us, if we're

1919
01:40:22,280 --> 01:40:24,080
Speaker 3: in the first quarter, just no, he doesn't play twelve

1920
01:40:24,080 --> 01:40:26,639
Speaker 3: minutes anymore. He plays about eight to nine the first

1921
01:40:26,720 --> 01:40:28,400
Speaker 3: quarter to get him a little bit rest.

1922
01:40:28,760 --> 01:40:31,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is wild because I'll say, real fast, you

1923
01:40:31,760 --> 01:40:34,840
Speaker 2: get used to teams and their substitution patterns, like you

1924
01:40:34,880 --> 01:40:37,040
Speaker 2: said with Jokich, Jeff, where it's like, all right, he's

1925
01:40:37,080 --> 01:40:40,080
Speaker 2: resting for a handful of minutes to start the second quarter,

1926
01:40:40,400 --> 01:40:43,639
Speaker 2: you watch the pacers numerous times, depending on what prop

1927
01:40:43,720 --> 01:40:46,920
Speaker 2: I have. I'll be like my guys out if I'm

1928
01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:48,759
Speaker 2: on and over and then he's back.

1929
01:40:48,840 --> 01:40:49,320
Speaker 7: Is it back in?

1930
01:40:49,400 --> 01:40:50,040
Speaker 2: He's out again?

1931
01:40:50,080 --> 01:40:50,200
Speaker 1: What?

1932
01:40:50,640 --> 01:40:52,639
Speaker 2: It's just crazy. It'll be in for like two minutes

1933
01:40:52,680 --> 01:40:55,719
Speaker 2: and then they're out. It's like a line change in hockey.

1934
01:40:55,920 --> 01:40:57,400
Speaker 2: What Carlile does.

1935
01:40:57,600 --> 01:41:01,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is. And then of COURSENBA substition patterns make

1936
01:41:02,000 --> 01:41:04,479
Speaker 3: no sense. You can you can never wager on them, Yeah,

1937
01:41:04,680 --> 01:41:08,000
Speaker 3: any sort of way, because they're they're just the oddest

1938
01:41:08,200 --> 01:41:10,679
Speaker 3: tumb batters, not NBA subste batteries.

1939
01:41:10,960 --> 01:41:14,880

01:42:55,400 --> 01:42:57,599
Speaker 2: being on the brain, which it always is, I Low

1972
01:42:57,680 --> 01:42:59,519
Speaker 2: with the latest. What's going on here, sir, and.

1973
01:42:59,479 --> 01:43:02,559
Speaker 8: I appreciate you not saying and speaking of gas bags.

1974
01:43:03,920 --> 01:43:05,840
Speaker 8: I mean, let's face it was. That would have been

1975
01:43:05,840 --> 01:43:08,200
Speaker 8: an alley right to the rim guys. In Major League

1976
01:43:08,200 --> 01:43:11,240
Speaker 8: Baseball on Saturday night, the Washington Nationals hit five home

1977
01:43:11,320 --> 01:43:13,000
Speaker 8: runs at a seven to three went over the Los

01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:13,879
Speaker 8: Angeles Dodgers.

1979
01:43:13,960 --> 01:43:15,599
Speaker 7: Nathaniel Lowe hit two of them.

1980
01:43:15,600 --> 01:43:17,800
Speaker 8: The New York Mets hit seven home runs and at

1981
01:43:17,800 --> 01:43:20,080
Speaker 8: eleven to four victory at Philadelphia that broke a seven

1982
01:43:20,120 --> 01:43:23,240
Speaker 8: game losing streak. Juan Soto and Brandon Neimo two home

1983
01:43:23,320 --> 01:43:25,759
Speaker 8: runs apiece. Mets and Phillies now tied for first place

1984
01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:29,000
Speaker 8: in the National League East. Also on Saturday night, in

1986
01:43:32,160 --> 01:43:35,680
Speaker 8: LSU over Coastal Carolina one to nothing thanks to a

1987
01:43:35,800 --> 01:43:39,679
Speaker 8: gem by LSU pitcher Cade Anderson, a complete game three

1988
01:43:39,720 --> 01:43:43,160
Speaker 8: hit shutout with ten strikeouts tonight at eight Eastern Game

1989
01:43:43,280 --> 01:43:46,400
Speaker 8: seven of the NBA Finals from Oklahoma City between the

1990
01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:50,280
Speaker 8: Thunder and the Indiana Pacers. The NBA announced the officials

1991
01:43:50,320 --> 01:43:54,200
Speaker 8: for tonight's contest Sean Wright in his twentieth season, Josh

1992
01:43:54,240 --> 01:43:57,200
Speaker 8: Tiven in his fifteenth campaign, and the Crew Chief in

1993
01:43:57,240 --> 01:44:02,280
Speaker 8: his thirtieth season. James Kpers In anticipation of Game seven,

1994
01:44:02,479 --> 01:44:05,840
Speaker 8: Let's take a special listen back to another classic Game

1995
01:44:05,920 --> 01:44:10,400
Speaker 8: seven intro, this one from twenty thirteen, as Lebron James

1996
01:44:10,400 --> 01:44:14,599
Speaker 8: and the Miami Heat faced the San Antonio Spurs game.

1997
01:44:14,439 --> 01:44:16,640
Speaker 3: On our whole floor to bring home another championship.

1998
01:44:16,680 --> 01:44:19,479
Speaker 5: Man, this is everything that we worked for all season long,

1999
01:44:19,600 --> 01:44:21,400
Speaker 5: all the sacrifice. If we be made to each other,

2000
01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:24,439
Speaker 5: dog every single day, dog, every single minute, Let's don't

2001
01:44:24,479 --> 01:44:27,599
Speaker 5: pay off. They say hardwork payoff, man, So let's make

2002
01:44:27,640 --> 01:44:29,639
Speaker 5: this game become true.

2003
01:44:31,280 --> 01:44:33,760
Speaker 11: Lebron James and the Heat coming off one of the

2004
01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:38,599
Speaker 11: most remarkable finishes you'll ever see, a breathtaking overtime victory

2005
01:44:38,600 --> 01:44:43,360
Speaker 11: in Game six to keep their season alive May while

2006
01:44:43,439 --> 01:44:46,639
Speaker 11: Tim Duncan and the San Antonio Spurs suffering as gut

2007
01:44:46,680 --> 01:44:49,880
Speaker 11: wrenching a loss as you can imagine now the former

2008
01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:53,320
Speaker 11: champs with an opportunity to redeem themselves.

2009
01:44:53,600 --> 01:44:56,720
Speaker 8: Miami would win the ballgame ninety five to eighty eight,

2010
01:44:56,760 --> 01:45:00,640
Speaker 8: as James scored thirty seven points and had twelve rebounds.

2011
01:45:00,680 --> 01:45:02,240
Speaker 3: Right, I mean, I do what you're talking about.

2012
01:45:02,240 --> 01:45:04,719
Speaker 7: Then back to you guys, Thank you Ilo.

2013
01:45:04,800 --> 01:45:09,760
Speaker 2: It is Fox Sports Radios Countdown presented by Bett MGM.

2014
01:45:10,240 --> 01:45:13,599
Speaker 2: It's funny because that was Lebron ring chasing and he

2015
01:45:13,680 --> 01:45:17,240
Speaker 2: was criticizing ring culture recently. This is kind of interesting

2016
01:45:17,520 --> 01:45:20,799
Speaker 2: tie in right there. Let's get to some award winning

2017
01:45:20,840 --> 01:45:25,040
Speaker 2: audio first and then we will meander our way to

2018
01:45:25,160 --> 01:45:29,120
Speaker 2: ball because ball is on the brain. This was Tyrese

2019
01:45:29,240 --> 01:45:34,320
Speaker 2: Halliburton right after the Pacers game six win, right, great win.

2020
01:45:34,520 --> 01:45:38,000
Speaker 2: They led wire to wire, led by thirty points heading

2021
01:45:38,000 --> 01:45:41,479
Speaker 2: into the fourth quarter. And this is what Tyrese Haliburton

2022
01:45:41,560 --> 01:45:44,880
Speaker 2: had to say with Scott Van Pelt on Sports Center

2023
01:45:44,880 --> 01:45:47,200
Speaker 2: after the game. But that's really important. Good stuff by

2024
01:45:47,240 --> 01:45:48,679
Speaker 2: Halliburton here right now.

2025
01:45:48,720 --> 01:45:51,120
Speaker 6: For the next two days, everybody's going to be talking

2026
01:45:51,160 --> 01:45:53,920
Speaker 6: about how good we looked, not well we played, how

2027
01:45:54,000 --> 01:45:54,920
Speaker 6: much pressure is on Oka?

2028
01:45:55,000 --> 01:45:56,719
Speaker 3: See you know that that's.

2029
01:45:56,479 --> 01:45:58,640
Speaker 4: Going to be the narrative, and we got to do

2030
01:45:58,640 --> 01:46:01,200
Speaker 4: a good job of staying away from that stuff.

2031
01:46:01,280 --> 01:46:03,519
Speaker 2: You know, I think that could be poison. That's right,

2032
01:46:03,560 --> 01:46:06,400
Speaker 2: like channeling is inner Nick Saban talking about rat poison

2033
01:46:06,479 --> 01:46:10,200
Speaker 2: right there. But you think about it. They've gotten days

2034
01:46:10,600 --> 01:46:13,760
Speaker 2: of that, so got to guard against that today. And also,

2035
01:46:13,880 --> 01:46:16,439
Speaker 2: you guys will both love this. So college World Series

2036
01:46:16,479 --> 01:46:20,719
Speaker 2: going on Coastal Carolina. They're trailing LSU one game to nothing.

2037
01:46:20,800 --> 01:46:23,280
Speaker 2: This is a great back and forth before game one.

2038
01:46:23,880 --> 01:46:27,200
Speaker 2: Listen to this question and a great answer by Coastal

2039
01:46:27,240 --> 01:46:29,200
Speaker 2: Carolina players. Here you go, your.

2040
01:46:29,040 --> 01:46:30,679
Speaker 7: Thoughts on LSU.

2041
01:46:31,320 --> 01:46:34,639
Speaker 11: What do you admire just as student athletes and fans

2042
01:46:34,640 --> 01:46:35,240
Speaker 11: of baseball?

2043
01:46:35,479 --> 01:46:36,880
Speaker 3: What do you like about the Tigers?

2044
01:46:44,200 --> 01:46:44,840
Speaker 1: Not a whole lot.

2045
01:46:48,600 --> 01:46:52,040
Speaker 2: That's tremendous, right, come on, man, But yeah, they're trailing

2046
01:46:52,080 --> 01:46:54,720
Speaker 2: one nothing. Got to score some runs, obviously, But what

2047
01:46:54,760 --> 01:46:55,080
Speaker 2: did they.

2048
01:46:55,000 --> 01:46:58,040
Speaker 3: Expect those kids to say? Like, oh, really, LSU? Yeah

2049
01:46:58,479 --> 01:46:59,080
Speaker 3: I can't.

2050
01:47:00,640 --> 01:47:01,280
Speaker 2: Right, Wow?

2051
01:47:01,520 --> 01:47:04,280
Speaker 3: How how about that hope we can hope we survive?

2052
01:47:04,920 --> 01:47:08,839
Speaker 2: Yeah? No, it's it looks like a really bad question.

2053
01:47:09,080 --> 01:47:11,960
Speaker 2: After I don't know. Sometimes you think oh, it's gonna

2054
01:47:11,960 --> 01:47:14,720
Speaker 2: go great and you have this answer in mind, and

2055
01:47:14,960 --> 01:47:17,599
Speaker 2: you're like, I was way off. I think that reporter

2056
01:47:17,680 --> 01:47:21,160
Speaker 2: probably thought that, okay, how about a ball on the brain.

2057
01:47:21,680 --> 01:47:25,880
Speaker 2: So continuing the holdout, this would be Shamar Stewart of

2058
01:47:25,920 --> 01:47:29,240
Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Bengals. We have not been able to touch

2059
01:47:29,280 --> 01:47:32,719
Speaker 2: on this story. And uh, I just think of both

2060
01:47:32,720 --> 01:47:34,479
Speaker 2: of you, guys. I thought of you last night because

2061
01:47:34,520 --> 01:47:39,040
Speaker 2: both you, Jeff and Crack you're married, right, and it's like,

2062
01:47:39,640 --> 01:47:43,920
Speaker 2: would you get into a fight with your wife that

2063
01:47:44,000 --> 01:47:47,320
Speaker 2: you really can't win. You either can't win the argument,

2064
01:47:48,360 --> 01:47:50,559
Speaker 2: or even if you win the argument, you still don't

2065
01:47:50,640 --> 01:47:53,840
Speaker 2: really win in the long run. Would you ever do that?

2066
01:47:54,120 --> 01:47:56,160
Speaker 2: Would you ever sign up for something like that? Of

2067
01:47:56,160 --> 01:47:59,080
Speaker 2: course not right. I think that's where the Bengals are

2068
01:47:59,160 --> 01:48:04,200
Speaker 2: right now. So there's the contract language stalemate and the

2069
01:48:04,240 --> 01:48:08,559
Speaker 2: Bengals they're trying to protect themselves where they're looking for

2070
01:48:08,720 --> 01:48:11,840
Speaker 2: a couple of assurances where they could get out of

2071
01:48:11,880 --> 01:48:15,280
Speaker 2: some future guaranteed money in the event of a default

2072
01:48:15,400 --> 01:48:18,320
Speaker 2: if there's a suspension for on the field or off

2073
01:48:18,360 --> 01:48:22,720
Speaker 2: field conduct or Samar gets hurt. So the thing to

2074
01:48:22,840 --> 01:48:26,880
Speaker 2: me is they're at a stalemate with their first round pick.

2075
01:48:27,439 --> 01:48:31,360
Speaker 2: They look petty, they look cheap, and it you might

2076
01:48:31,400 --> 01:48:34,160
Speaker 2: not even save yourself any money. Depending on how things

2077
01:48:34,280 --> 01:48:38,080
Speaker 2: unfold with Shamar. So how are you winning? You're fighting

2078
01:48:38,080 --> 01:48:40,320
Speaker 2: this battle that I don't think you can win. I

2079
01:48:40,360 --> 01:48:43,240
Speaker 2: don't understand what the Bengals are doing. No other team

2080
01:48:43,320 --> 01:48:47,839
Speaker 2: is doing this right to this degree. I don't understand

2081
01:48:47,840 --> 01:48:50,439
Speaker 2: what Sincy is doing here. Man, their heels are dug

2082
01:48:50,479 --> 01:48:52,640
Speaker 2: in and they just I think they look stupid for

2083
01:48:52,760 --> 01:48:54,000
Speaker 2: doing it in the first place.

2084
01:48:55,280 --> 01:49:00,120
Speaker 3: So what they're doing, I guess for those who who

2085
01:49:00,200 --> 01:49:03,439
Speaker 3: might have missed it. So the rookie wage scale that

2086
01:49:03,520 --> 01:49:06,360
Speaker 3: was put in place in twenty eleven, what it did

2087
01:49:06,520 --> 01:49:09,400
Speaker 3: was it it a couple of things. One is it

2088
01:49:09,640 --> 01:49:14,240
Speaker 3: made the money for every first round pick, really any rookie.

2089
01:49:14,720 --> 01:49:16,720
Speaker 3: It made it on a wage scale, right, so it

2090
01:49:16,800 --> 01:49:20,200
Speaker 3: was capped out. You get a certain percentage up increase

2091
01:49:20,240 --> 01:49:24,280
Speaker 3: every year, so on the money scale that everything's about.

2092
01:49:24,320 --> 01:49:27,240
Speaker 3: From that perspective, it limited the earning power of rookies.

2093
01:49:28,040 --> 01:49:32,840
Speaker 3: But what it also did was it created uniform language

2094
01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:36,559
Speaker 3: to where they just hand you the contracting to sign it, right,

2095
01:49:36,600 --> 01:49:38,280
Speaker 3: because it used to be and you know this, you

2096
01:49:38,280 --> 01:49:41,240
Speaker 3: guys have all for a while. You know, come this

2097
01:49:41,400 --> 01:49:43,400
Speaker 3: first day of training camp, there might be like your

2098
01:49:43,479 --> 01:49:46,519
Speaker 3: tire rookie class not signed yet or first round pickers,

2099
01:49:46,640 --> 01:49:49,320
Speaker 3: remember not so the kids. They're fighting over bonus structure

2100
01:49:49,479 --> 01:49:52,920
Speaker 3: and default language and rookie splits, injury splits and all

2101
01:49:52,960 --> 01:49:55,080
Speaker 3: this stuff. And it got to the point where it

2102
01:49:55,120 --> 01:49:58,000
Speaker 3: was just too much. So it made it very easy

2103
01:49:58,000 --> 01:50:03,960
Speaker 3: in streamline. And now it's obviously many years later and

2104
01:50:04,120 --> 01:50:06,240
Speaker 3: teams have changed a little bit of the language in

2105
01:50:06,240 --> 01:50:08,959
Speaker 3: the contracts, but enough where everyone just signs the contract.

2106
01:50:09,680 --> 01:50:12,200
Speaker 3: So what they're trying to do to Shamar Stewart is saying, look, man,

2107
01:50:12,560 --> 01:50:15,400
Speaker 3: if you get suspended for anything, we're avoiding your guarantees.

2108
01:50:16,360 --> 01:50:19,840
Speaker 3: It sounds like guarantees for all your entire contract, not

2109
01:50:19,880 --> 01:50:22,080
Speaker 3: just that year. So look like other teams have done

2110
01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:26,120
Speaker 3: this in the past without any problem, but the Bengals

2111
01:50:26,160 --> 01:50:27,560
Speaker 3: are trying to do it for the first time. To

2112
01:50:27,640 --> 01:50:30,040
Speaker 3: Stewart and as representatives saying, no, we're not gonna be

2113
01:50:30,120 --> 01:50:33,680
Speaker 3: the first people, first person player. You do this too

2114
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:35,439
Speaker 3: as a bagel because and then the rest of the

2115
01:50:35,479 --> 01:50:39,320
Speaker 3: Bengals who signed contracts moving forward to have this clause

2116
01:50:39,360 --> 01:50:41,599
Speaker 3: in there. It's kind of a silly clause, Like think

2117
01:50:41,640 --> 01:50:45,920
Speaker 3: about it. You could be suspended for many reasons. One

2118
01:50:45,960 --> 01:50:48,760
Speaker 3: of them is helmet to helmet. It might not even

2119
01:50:48,800 --> 01:50:51,200
Speaker 3: be your fault. It might be a weird play helmet

2120
01:50:51,240 --> 01:50:55,920
Speaker 3: to helmet suspended. Then your guarantees are avoided for that.

2121
01:50:57,080 --> 01:50:59,240
Speaker 3: But you're like, so I get why. They're like, no,

2122
01:50:59,320 --> 01:51:03,760
Speaker 3: we're not doing this. And there's another battle, by the

2123
01:51:03,760 --> 01:51:05,280
Speaker 3: way happening that not talking.

2124
01:51:05,160 --> 01:51:07,400
Speaker 2: About very much. No, that's a really interesting second round

2125
01:51:07,560 --> 01:51:08,160
Speaker 2: the second.

2126
01:51:07,920 --> 01:51:12,320
Speaker 3: Round pick Filde So again, the rookie wage scale essentially

2127
01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:15,280
Speaker 3: made first round picks money guaranteed. I actually don't know

2128
01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:18,000
Speaker 3: if that's written in the contract, because like the NBA

2129
01:51:18,160 --> 01:51:19,799
Speaker 3: and Major U Baseball, it's not ridden in the contract.

2130
01:51:19,800 --> 01:51:22,360
Speaker 3: They just it's guaranteed money. It's it's it was added

2131
01:51:22,439 --> 01:51:26,479
Speaker 3: in to every deal. So first round picks I've had

2132
01:51:26,479 --> 01:51:29,679
Speaker 3: guaranteed money. This is the first year. Second round picks

2133
01:51:29,760 --> 01:51:32,000
Speaker 3: picked thirty three and thirty four were given guaranteed money.

2134
01:51:32,320 --> 01:51:35,080
Speaker 3: Right so picked thirty five, thirty six, they're saying they're

2135
01:51:35,280 --> 01:51:37,640
Speaker 3: there two, I want guaranteed money too. Yeah, there's a

2136
01:51:37,640 --> 01:51:39,559
Speaker 3: stalemate right now with second round picks. It's not talked

2137
01:51:39,560 --> 01:51:42,720
Speaker 3: about very much, but Jamar Stewart is because I'll tell

2138
01:51:42,720 --> 01:51:47,320
Speaker 3: you why it's talking about so much. Because he bashed

2139
01:51:47,360 --> 01:51:51,799
Speaker 3: the team publicly who just drafted him. It's a really

2140
01:51:51,840 --> 01:51:55,880
Speaker 3: bad look for the Bengals to have a guy that

2141
01:51:56,000 --> 01:51:59,040
Speaker 3: you need to be good as a rookie and to

2142
01:51:59,120 --> 01:52:04,920
Speaker 3: be a franchise changing player bashing your team crack before

2143
01:52:04,920 --> 01:52:05,919
Speaker 3: you even signed a contract.

2144
01:52:06,040 --> 01:52:09,360
Speaker 2: Jesus, well while you're still havn't signed Trey Hendrickson on

2145
01:52:09,400 --> 01:52:09,920
Speaker 2: top of that?

2146
01:52:10,120 --> 01:52:14,200
Speaker 4: Right, this was an interesting Uh, this was really interesting

2147
01:52:14,240 --> 01:52:17,800
Speaker 4: to read thirty of the remaining thirty six holdouts our

2148
01:52:17,880 --> 01:52:18,840
Speaker 4: second round draft.

2149
01:52:18,920 --> 01:52:21,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a guaranteed money thing, That's what it's about.

2150
01:52:21,439 --> 01:52:25,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, and Tyler Show's situation there living in a car, retiring.

2151
01:52:26,160 --> 01:52:28,040
Speaker 4: He looks to be the starter off the bat, but

2152
01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:32,519
Speaker 4: Jeff is a normal thing. Did these draft hold out

2153
01:52:32,720 --> 01:52:33,880
Speaker 4: is something happening this year?

2154
01:52:33,960 --> 01:52:37,000
Speaker 3: Right? I mean it's new because the first two picks

2155
01:52:37,000 --> 01:52:39,719
Speaker 3: of the second round got guaranteed money, well, first time ever.

2156
01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:42,720
Speaker 2: And it's it's tied to Tyler Shock. That's the main thing.

2157
01:52:42,720 --> 01:52:45,680
Speaker 2: Because he's the fortieth overall pick. He's insisting on a

2158
01:52:45,720 --> 01:52:49,000
Speaker 2: fully guaranteed contract. What kind of money? Game one?

2159
01:52:49,240 --> 01:52:52,160
Speaker 3: What kind of money? Say six million dollars somewhere around

2160
01:52:52,200 --> 01:52:55,479
Speaker 3: our second round pick? Yeah, just like how much money.

2161
01:52:55,560 --> 01:52:58,519
Speaker 3: But it's about it's about precedent, right like right, you know,

2162
01:52:59,040 --> 01:53:01,000
Speaker 3: back to the marriage thing, right, like if you agree

2163
01:53:01,000 --> 01:53:03,040
Speaker 3: to it to one thing in marriage that's different than

2164
01:53:03,040 --> 01:53:05,320
Speaker 3: it's been in the past. Your wife's always gonna well,

2165
01:53:05,400 --> 01:53:07,479
Speaker 3: now it's time we do things. You can do it

2166
01:53:07,520 --> 01:53:09,360
Speaker 3: one time and so you fold.

2167
01:53:10,640 --> 01:53:13,960
Speaker 2: That's your job until we're gone from this earth, you

2168
01:53:14,000 --> 01:53:14,439
Speaker 2: know like that.

2169
01:53:14,520 --> 01:53:18,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it work that way. It uh, that's uh,

2170
01:53:18,200 --> 01:53:20,280
Speaker 3: that's where we're at with the work contract. So we'll see.

2171
01:53:20,320 --> 01:53:22,519
Speaker 3: I mean camp obviously a couple of weeks away now

2172
01:53:22,600 --> 01:53:26,120
Speaker 3: or a month away for some teams. And the Shamar

2173
01:53:26,120 --> 01:53:28,040
Speaker 3: Stewart thing is it's trying to walk because I hope

2174
01:53:28,040 --> 01:53:29,400
Speaker 3: he's not the guinea pick. I hope you gets his

2175
01:53:29,479 --> 01:53:32,200
Speaker 3: money and it's all settled before camp. But it's just

2176
01:53:32,200 --> 01:53:34,519
Speaker 3: such an unforced error by the Bengals. It is that

2177
01:53:34,680 --> 01:53:36,040
Speaker 3: just just signed the kid man.

2178
01:53:36,360 --> 01:53:38,960
Speaker 2: It's not smart. Yeah, And that's the thing with the

2179
01:53:39,000 --> 01:53:43,120
Speaker 2: second rounders. All the second round picks were signed by

2180
01:53:43,160 --> 01:53:46,120
Speaker 2: this time last year. Yes, and we've got two signed

2181
01:53:46,200 --> 01:53:48,880
Speaker 2: right now like everybody else holding out trying to get

2182
01:53:48,880 --> 01:53:52,120
Speaker 2: fully guaranteed contracts as if they play quarterback. You know

2183
01:53:52,360 --> 01:53:56,080
Speaker 2: like and they don't like. So it's it's an interesting dynamic,

2184
01:53:58,200 --> 01:53:58,719
Speaker 2: it is.

2185
01:53:58,840 --> 01:54:00,000
Speaker 3: And we'll see how it gets settled.

2186
01:54:00,280 --> 01:54:01,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, just googled.

2187
01:54:01,120 --> 01:54:03,479
Speaker 4: I wanted to google with these second round guys. I'm

2188
01:54:03,520 --> 01:54:06,439
Speaker 4: just interested to know, Like, I just not used to

2189
01:54:06,439 --> 01:54:09,439
Speaker 4: seeing these kind of hold out like situations here. I

2190
01:54:09,479 --> 01:54:11,160
Speaker 4: just was googled how much money they were looking for?

2191
01:54:11,240 --> 01:54:12,559
Speaker 4: How much money they're going to.

2192
01:54:12,600 --> 01:54:15,720
Speaker 3: Be making anyway, that's a six or seven million.

2193
01:54:16,479 --> 01:54:19,960
Speaker 2: Yeah. The Bengals, they're like you, guys, I think you know,

2194
01:54:20,120 --> 01:54:23,879
Speaker 2: if if you crack, you won the argument with your wife,

2195
01:54:23,920 --> 01:54:26,880
Speaker 2: like I want, but you're sleeping on the couch. Did

2196
01:54:26,920 --> 01:54:29,040
Speaker 2: you did you really win the argument? You know what

2197
01:54:29,040 --> 01:54:30,840
Speaker 2: I mean? Like, that's where the Bengals are right now.

2198
01:54:30,880 --> 01:54:33,320
Speaker 2: They're trying to win the argument and they're still sleeping

2199
01:54:33,360 --> 01:54:35,400
Speaker 2: on the couch. It's it's just a waste of time,

2200
01:54:35,440 --> 01:54:35,720
Speaker 2: I think.

2201
01:54:35,760 --> 01:54:36,000

Speaker 3: Rapid fire.

2240
01:56:30,000 --> 01:56:32,640
Speaker 2: Okay, crack, we start with you. What's something you like?

2241
01:56:33,080 --> 01:56:35,880
Speaker 4: As my old New York friend Steve Summers used to

2242
01:56:35,880 --> 01:56:40,200
Speaker 4: call them the Metropolitans on fan, let's go with the Mets.

2243
01:56:40,560 --> 01:56:43,080
Speaker 4: They just came off. They just broke their schneid did

2244
01:56:43,120 --> 01:56:46,320
Speaker 4: yesterday of one to seven beating the Phillies. Go with

2245
01:56:46,360 --> 01:56:50,879
Speaker 4: the Mets tonight. As a small underdog. I know everyone's

2246
01:56:50,880 --> 01:56:52,440
Speaker 4: going to be watching the met game. No one's going

2247
01:56:52,520 --> 01:56:53,680
Speaker 4: to be watching the basketball game.

2248
01:56:54,600 --> 01:56:59,680
Speaker 3: You go, agreed, The Metropolitans they were the seven losses

2249
01:56:59,680 --> 01:57:06,000
Speaker 3: in a row lost something. I like the right number here,

2250
01:57:06,440 --> 01:57:09,560
Speaker 3: Asia Wilson over twenty three and a half points for

2251
01:57:09,760 --> 01:57:13,760
Speaker 3: the fever for the Aces against the fever in their game,

2252
01:57:13,800 --> 01:57:14,760
Speaker 3: that the one Brian's attending.

2253
01:57:14,840 --> 01:57:18,600
Speaker 2: Later, that's right, I'll be there, maybe a foam finger.

2254
01:57:18,640 --> 01:57:21,040
Speaker 2: I don't know. It might get crazy. We'll see.

2255
01:57:21,880 --> 01:57:22,560
Speaker 7: I'm gonna go.

2256
01:57:23,120 --> 01:57:25,200
Speaker 2: You know, I'm not going to go zig zag here, Crack,

2257
01:57:25,600 --> 01:57:28,640
Speaker 2: you made an impassioned plea against the zig zag approach,

2258
01:57:29,880 --> 01:57:32,880
Speaker 2: so I will go anti zigzag. I'll go with the trend. Here,

2259
01:57:32,960 --> 01:57:36,080
Speaker 2: give me ok C minus the four and a half

2260
01:57:36,160 --> 01:57:39,200
Speaker 2: in the first half. I do. I like it beyond

2261
01:57:39,400 --> 01:57:43,240
Speaker 2: zigzag trends. I think he's okay. So he's going to

2262
01:57:43,320 --> 01:57:46,320
Speaker 2: be a handful, uh, to say the least in a

2263
01:57:46,360 --> 01:57:48,720
Speaker 2: game seven at home, fresh off a game they got

2264
01:57:48,800 --> 01:57:52,040
Speaker 2: clobbered in. And then, if you're looking for a trend,

2265
01:57:52,080 --> 01:57:57,760
Speaker 2: here Indiana at OKC in three games in these finals,

2266
01:57:58,280 --> 01:58:01,520
Speaker 2: rough first halfs. These are the points that Indiana has

2267
01:58:01,520 --> 01:58:04,400
Speaker 2: scored in the first half of each game on the

2268
01:58:04,480 --> 01:58:08,760
Speaker 2: road forty five, forty one, forty five. Now in the

2269
01:58:08,760 --> 01:58:11,480
Speaker 2: second half they've been a lot better sixty six sixty

2270
01:58:11,560 --> 01:58:14,480
Speaker 2: six sixty four. They really crank it up in the

2271
01:58:14,520 --> 01:58:17,160
Speaker 2: second half, but first half not a whole lot to

2272
01:58:17,160 --> 01:58:20,480
Speaker 2: write home about. I think the trend continues. I think

2273
01:58:20,560 --> 01:58:24,800
Speaker 2: OKC is a royal pain in the Boutois first quarter,

2274
01:58:24,920 --> 01:58:29,080
Speaker 2: first half, they start fast, they're aggressive, they're aggressive defensively.

2275
01:58:29,240 --> 01:58:31,840
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be hard for the Pacers to score.

2276
01:58:33,400 --> 01:58:35,640
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna go with OKC minus four and a

2277
01:58:35,680 --> 01:58:40,080
Speaker 2: half in the first half. Writing the trend crack, huh yeah,

2278
01:58:40,160 --> 01:58:42,840
Speaker 2: trend is your friend. Every now and then, we got

2291
01:59:13,520 --> 01:59:17,880
