1 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 1: What's up, guys, how are you? 2 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,240 Speaker 2: It's time for a Tuesday morning episode of the Daily 3 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 2: Juice podcast. My name is Matt Perrault. You guys can 4 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:26,080 Speaker 2: follow me across all of my socials at Sports Talk Matton. Unfortunately, 5 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 2: the sixth day winning streak came to a close. I 6 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,279 Speaker 2: was concerned that the game could go against us if 7 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 2: we got it really wrong, it was going to be 8 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 2: a losing day, and that is what happened. Seattle covers 9 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,520 Speaker 2: They get there for us. That was the only win. 10 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 2: The Bucks got housed. We came nowhere near forty six 11 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,599 Speaker 2: and a half or fifty two and a half. The 12 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,880 Speaker 2: injury to Mike Evans was brutal that it's really bad 13 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 2: news for our bet on the Bucks to win the division. 14 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: That was an injury that Thank goodness they have Abuka 15 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 2: and thank goodness they have Baker, but my gosh, that's 16 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 2: a brutal injury to break his clavical He has gone 17 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: for the rest of the regular season. How much of 18 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 2: the playoffs if the Bucks make it, would he be 19 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 2: a part of We don't know. But that is not 20 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 2: an injury you just come back from. That is a 21 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 2: highly painful injury. The concussion was bad enough for Mike Evans, 22 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 2: but really a bummer for one of the great wide 23 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 2: outs in the history of the NFL. To have his 24 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 2: one thousand yard streak end and really his season end on. 25 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: A play like that. 26 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 2: That's really unfortunate for Mike Evans, so bad news for 27 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 2: the Bucks. There we go one and two on the day, 28 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 2: we are down one point three to five units. So 29 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 2: we start the week off down, but we had a 30 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: very good week last week, so let's pick it back up. 31 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 2: Welcome back to the NBA. So if you were with 32 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 2: us last year, you know how this goes. The NBA 33 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 2: has been extremely profitable for us with the prop cheat sheet. 34 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 2: We have been dominant, I even would say with NBA 35 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 2: prop betting over the last couple of years, thanks largely 36 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 2: in part to the prop bet cheat sheet. We've told 37 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 2: you about betting prost premium for a while. This is 38 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 2: where I pull the bets from for the prop bet 39 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 2: cheat sheet, and it's been just you know, last year, 40 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 2: just to give you an idea, in twenty twenty four 41 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,399 Speaker 2: for US, we wound up eighty four and seventy two 42 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 2: for the year in twenty twenty four, that's fifty four 43 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 2: percent in twenty twenty five this year in the NBA, 44 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 2: so it's last season. Heading into this year, we wound 45 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 2: up going forty five and thirty one, that's fifty nine percent, 46 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 2: and the NBA prop bets went sixty six and thirty four, 47 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 2: that is sixty six percent, So we are basically sixty 48 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 2: percent hitting in the NBA twenty four and twenty five. 49 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: This has been the sport that has been the most. 50 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 2: Profitable for this podcast over the last eighteen months, more 51 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 2: than that, really twenty months. So now we go back 52 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 2: to the NBA, so it's an all NBA podcast today. 53 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 2: I've got three NBA futures for win totals to give you, 54 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 2: and I have got two plays on the two games 55 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 2: happening tonight in the NBA. I got nothing on hockey 56 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 2: Florida and Brad mar Shan playing at Boston. That the 57 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 2: numbers one sixty. It's really expensive. I don't really want 58 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 2: to get involved with that, but Florida and Regulation is 59 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 2: probably a pretty good bet against the Bruins given what 60 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 2: Boston has looked like. But the totals five and a half, 61 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 2: you know the Bruins are going to be up when 62 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: they see Marshan. So that's the only real fun hockey 63 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 2: game for tonight, and baseball obviously not starting yet. Congrats 64 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: to the Blue Jays make it into the World Series, 65 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 2: George Springer with that three run home run in the 66 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 2: eighth or seventh unbelievable. First time since nineteen ninety three, 67 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 2: the Blue Jays are back into the World Series. Ninety 68 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 2: three is also the last time a Canadian team won 69 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 2: the Stanley Cup, so ninety three is a big number, 70 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: a big year for Canada. So we'll see how things go. 71 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,679 Speaker 2: But I don't like the chances for the Blue Jays. 72 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 2: As I told you, I wasn't all excited about this 73 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: World Series because it feels like a formality. I don't 74 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 2: think the Blue Jays have much of a shot. Hey 75 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: been wrong before, but don't think they have much of 76 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 2: a shot here up against this juggernaut that is the 77 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 2: La Dodgers.

Let's talk futures here 105 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 2: for the NBA. I'm betting the over on the Boston 106 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 2: Celtics forty one and a half. Not just because I'm 107 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 2: wearing a Celtics championship hat, not just because I'm a Homer, 108 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 2: but because I believe in Joe Missoula. I am a big, 109 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 2: big believer in him as a head coach. We talked 110 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: about this going into different seasons, like when I was 111 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: talking about the Bruins or I was talking about the Cardinals. 112 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 2: In baseball, There's just certain franchises that I Am not 113 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 2: gonna bet the under when the total is really low, 114 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 2: in particular around five hundred or worse. The Boston Celtics 115 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,119 Speaker 2: have Jalen Brown. The Boston Celtics are going to get 116 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 2: Jason Tatum back, and I've made this prediction that he 117 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 2: will play before Easter. 118 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: He will be playing with the Boston Celtics. 119 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 2: In fact, it's not going to surprise me if Jason 120 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: Tatum is back by Saint Patrick's Day playing for the 121 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 2: Boston Celtics. The injury that he suffered was brutal, but 122 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 2: the surgery has taken He is already on the basketball court. 123 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,479 Speaker 2: He is already working out. It's October you're telling me 124 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 2: that five or six months from now, Jason Tatum is 125 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 2: not going to play for the Boston Celtics in the NBA. 126 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: Sorry, don't buy it. 127 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 2: I also think that Jalen Brown can be an effective 128 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 2: number one. I also think that Peyton Pritchard and other 129 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 2: players can step up. The loss of Al Horford stinks 130 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 2: from a leadership standpoints. I don't love that, But I 131 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 2: do think Boston's going to be better than a five 132 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:26,239 Speaker 2: hundred basketball team, even without the wonderful, amazing Jason Tatum, 133 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: and the reason will be defense. 134 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,559 Speaker 1: I think Joe Missoula is going to mug people this year. 135 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: I think Boston is going to be one of the 136 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: most physical teams in the NBA, and Joe Mizula is 137 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 2: gonna let loose on this defensive effort. Unders in Celtics 138 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 2: games are going to be an absolute cash cow. Okay, 139 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 2: Boston is going to lock down. They're also not going 140 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 2: to score a ton themselves, Okay, but I expect a 141 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 2: tremendous defensive effort out of this Celtics team that's going 142 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: to be much different than the three point shooting loving 143 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 2: NBA that everyone plays this up tempo Jack and threes. 144 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: I think Joe Mozoula is going to go and. 145 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: Walk into this fight with a club and start swinging 146 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 2: at people. Over Celtics forty one and a half team 147 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 2: total win. I think they wind up winning forty four 148 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 2: to forty five. Heck, maybe even fifty games depending on 149 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 2: how things shake out for the Boston Celtics. Now the 150 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 2: Lakers play tonight, the Lakers are going to be without 151 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: Lebron James. The question is going to be how long? 152 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 2: For how long would they be without Lebron James. Forty 153 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 2: seven and a half is the win total for the 154 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: LA Lakers. At some point this all comes to a 155 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 2: crashing end. I fully understand that JJ Reddick has a 156 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 2: team that will be built around Luka Doncic, who looks 157 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 2: like he's in the best shape of his life, which 158 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: is great, okay, But if Lebron can't be anywhere close 159 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: to being a robin, let alone a sidekick, let alone 160 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 2: a leader, let alone a batman for his roster, if 161 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 2: he's forty and the age just catches up with him 162 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 2: and he looks tired at the end of last year, 163 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 2: if it's just too much for him, this Western Conference 164 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 2: is no joke. Okasee is not going to rest. The 165 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 2: Denver Nuggets are going to be good, like really good. 166 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 2: The Rockets are going to be great. I mean, the 167 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 2: Western Conference is so incredibly deep at the moment. The 168 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 2: Thunder could very well go and win sixty five games. 169 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 2: The Rockets could win sixty games, The Nuggets could win 170 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: fifty five. 171 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: The Clippers will be in the conversation like they always are. 172 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 2: The Timberwolves will still be really good. I like the 173 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 2: Warriors more than most people. The Dallas Mavericks are not 174 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 2: going to be bad. The Dallas Mavericks and Cooper Flag 175 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: could be right there competing for a playoff spot and 176 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 2: maybe even getting out of the play in tournaments like 177 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 2: this is going to be a very difficult season. And 178 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 2: Lakers went fifty to thirty two last year, thankful, mostly 179 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 2: thanks to their home record, where they went thirty one 180 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 2: to ten last year at Staples Crypto whatever the hell 181 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 2: they're calling that building now. 182 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: I'm just not a believer. 183 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 2: I'm just not a believer that they're going to be 184 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 2: a team that look forty seven and a half wins 185 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 2: that means they win forty eight forty nine to fifty wins. 186 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 2: I don't think they're going to be as good as 187 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 2: last year. I just don't DeAndre Eton coming over. I okay, 188 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 2: I mean I'm not impressed. I'm not until I see it. 189 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 2: I don't believe it with DeAndre Ayton, I just don't 190 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,559 Speaker 2: think the Lakers are going to be nearly as good 191 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 2: as people think. Plus you have load management with Lebron 192 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 2: and Luca. It's just about getting into the playoffs. Give 193 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,719 Speaker 2: me the under. I'm going under forty seven and a 194 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 2: half wins for the La Lakers here going up into 195 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 2: the season. And finally the Orlando Magic. I'm a believer. 196 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 2: I'm a believer in Orlando. Look, this franchise hasn't won 197 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 2: fifty two or more games in forever. They've only done 198 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 2: it four times in their his and Shack was a 199 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 2: big part of all those teams. Orlando last year went 200 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 2: five hundred, forty one and forty one. They were twenty 201 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,319 Speaker 2: two and nineteen at home, they were nineteen and twenty 202 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,839 Speaker 2: two on the road. They had basically a flat point 203 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 2: differential point one point differential. They were one of the 204 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 2: worst three point shooting teams that we have seen in 205 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 2: a long time. But this is Panchero, this is Wagner, 206 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 2: this is Bain. This is a team that should step 207 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 2: up and really take a nice step forward. 208 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: Look. I like where the Magic are. 209 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 2: I like the efficiency that they have on offense, and 210 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 2: I really like their defense. I like defensive teams this 211 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 2: year because no one really is paying defense. Okay, no 212 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 2: one is stepping up, and no one's playing hard nosed defense. 213 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 2: And Desmond Bain back to his Memphis Grizzly days, He's 214 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 2: a hard nosed defensive player. Paul Pinchero and friends Wagner 215 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 2: have got to be the two best players on this 216 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 2: roster and they have to stay healthy. But if they do, 217 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: bain shooting should help, and I think defensively they're going 218 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 2: to be a really big problem. 219 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: Okay, this is. 220 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 2: A team that had so many injuries that derailed their 221 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: upcoming trek through the playoffs, and yet they still were 222 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 2: a team that were a problem and they still push 223 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,559 Speaker 2: Boston in the playoffs. 224 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: I just think this is going. 225 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 2: To be a great season in Orlando and we might 226 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: be seeing one of the emergence of a new power 227 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conference in the Orlando Magic. I'm betting 228 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 2: the over on Orlando. I'm a believer over fifty and 229 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 2: a half wins for the Orlando Magic. So three season 230 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 2: long plays in the NBA, Celtics over forty one and 231 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 2: a half wins, Lakers under forty seven and a half wins, 232 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 2: and the Orlando Magic over fifty and a half wins. 233 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 2: Before I give you the plays for to on opening night, 234 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 2: and there are two games to talk about here tonight 235 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 2: in the NBA.

I 264 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: do Kevin Durant going over there, really like the Rockets. 265 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 2: Here's the thing span or night. 266 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: In Oklahoma City. 267 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 2: I started watching the Netflix show starting five last night, 268 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 2: and it's a really cool look at Shay Gillis Alexander 269 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 2: rating MVP and what makes him go, what makes him tick? 270 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: The Thunder were pretty much every home game they were 271 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: seven and a. 272 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 2: Half point favorites. Like it was just like rinse and repeat, 273 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 2: seven and a half. Because the professionals they don't like 274 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 2: betting more than seven because it's three possessions, and so 275 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 2: you start going, ah, that's more than three possessions. That's 276 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 2: you know, three threes or you know, two threes in 277 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 2: a buckets. They don't like three possessions, so that number 278 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 2: gives them pause. The Thunder last year were thirty five 279 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 2: seventeen at home against the spread. At home, they killed 280 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 2: people at home. They were a team that you know, 281 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 2: look as a money line favorite. They were tremendous. They 282 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: were favored in seventy nine of eighty two games last year. 283 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 2: They went sixty six and thirteen in those games. Incredible 284 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 2: when they were a money line favorite of minus two 285 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 2: ninety four or shorter. Last year they were forty four 286 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 2: and eight straight up eighty five percent of the time. 287 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 2: So at home with a big number, new season, I 288 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 2: got you. But they win this game? The Thunder win 289 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 2: this game? Do they win this game by seven and 290 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 2: a half, eight nine, ten points. Yeah, because I think 291 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: what they do in the fourth quarter is ridiculous. I 292 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 2: do think that will carry over. I do think that's 293 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 2: consistent as to what they do when they play. 294 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: And early in the year. Last year, I mean. 295 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 2: The Thunder were just taking people apart. And I think 296 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 2: on Banner Night, I can't fade these guys. I don't 297 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 2: like laying seven and a half points. I just think 298 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 2: the Thunder are going to be the Thunder. But without 299 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 2: Fred van Fleet, I mean that's a huge loss to them. 300 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: I mean they get to get used to who the 301 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 2: point guard is going to be for this team. All 302 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 2: the leadership that the van Fleet had last year with 303 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 2: Ime Adoka, those two guys were just on the same level. 304 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: They were so good together. 305 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 2: So I do think there's going to be some of 306 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: a feeling out pross As coming up here. I mean, 307 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 2: Jaylen Williams is not playing for the Thunder. That's a 308 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 2: big loss as well. But Sga is playing. The size 309 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 2: of the Rockets. They're going to be one of the 310 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 2: biggest teams in the NBA and that's going to be 311 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 2: problematic for anybody. And let's see what Kevin Durant looks 312 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 2: like in Game one and and let's him and SGA. 313 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 2: They have a great relationship. You see it on the 314 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 2: starting five, like they just they talk to each other. 315 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: Obviously. 316 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 2: You know this is Okac where Kevin Durant started his 317 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 2: NBA career, where ultimately and there's some great stuff on 318 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 2: the show about how James Harden was traded away when 319 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 2: it was Hardened Westbrook and Durant, how all three of 320 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 2: them are still pissed off that that trade happened, that 321 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 2: that shouldn't have been with the case. 322 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: They should have kept going. They've gotten to know, three. 323 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 2: Straight deep runs in the postseason, not winning a championship, 324 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 2: but they thought that fourth. 325 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: Year was going to be the charm. 326 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 2: I'll lay it. It's not comfortable. It's not a comfortable lay, 327 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 2: but I'll lay it. Seven and a half thunder against 328 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 2: the Rockets at minus seven and a half to the 329 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 2: Lake game. I told you I don't like the Lakers 330 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 2: and a night number one, I don't like the Lakers. 331 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 2: The Warriors are going into this season where I love 332 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,439 Speaker 2: the addition of Al Horford. I love that Jimmy Butler 333 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 2: has a whole season now with the Warriors. I do 334 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 2: think that Steph Curry continues to play at a very 335 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 2: high level. I still think Draymond Green is going to 336 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:32,640 Speaker 2: be good. I think John Kamunga can keep on developing 337 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 2: here for this roster, and they have Steve Kerr. Okay, 338 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 2: I think the Warriors are going to be better than 339 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 2: people think. 340 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 1: And they got hot at the end of last year. 341 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 2: If you remember, the Warriors ended up with a forty 342 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: eight and thirty four record last year, and it's somewhat 343 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 2: surprising when you stop and think about it. The Warriors 344 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 2: win total for this coming season is forty seven and 345 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 2: a half, pretty much what they did last year. So 346 00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 2: they were in the play in tournament. But if they 347 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 2: keep rolling with the way they roll. At the end 348 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 2: of last year, they won seven or the last ten games. 349 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 2: They just recovered after a very bad start. They were great. 350 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 2: Once they acquired Jimmy Butler. Things changed. Now they have 351 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler for an entire season. The Lakers do not 352 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 2: have Lebron James. I mean who they play Browny. I mean, like, 353 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,479 Speaker 2: come on, I don't like this matchup at all. I 354 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 2: like the Warriors lay in two points here. It's basically 355 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 2: just a money line play, they take the Warriors, give 356 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 2: me the Warriors minus two for one point one units. 357 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 2: So plays for today for US Celtics over forty one 358 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 2: and a half wins, Lakers under forty seven and a 359 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 2: half wins, Magic over fifty and a half wins. You 360 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 2: can bet those as much as you want. Officially, we 361 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 2: just take it for one unit to win a unit, 362 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 2: So up to you on once you want to lay 363 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 2: down Thunder minus seven and a half for one point 364 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: one units and the Warriors minus two on the road 365 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 2: against the Lakers for one point one units.
