1 00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 1: Welcome to the Thursday morning edition of the Daily Juice podcast. 2 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 1: I'm your host, Matt Parolt here off Bettingpros dot Com. 3 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,479 Speaker 1: This podcast being brought to you by bet MGM, and 4 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,079 Speaker 1: we are back for another Picks podcast after a really 5 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: good day. So three and one yesterday, four and oh Monday, 6 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: one in three right on Tuesday, and then three and 7 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: one yesterday, so not bad, right, so we're off to 8 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: a pretty good week eight and four. Can't argue you 9 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: can't get to mata at it. We'll take it every time. 10 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 1: But we'll keep it going here. I've got four plays 11 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:48,319 Speaker 1: today in the NBA, one lean in the NBA, and 12 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: a Major League Baseball pick to give you as well 13 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: coming up to day. But before we give the picks, 14 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: quick recap the last night. So Luca doncas is unbelievable, 15 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: Lucas Luca man, what a win. I told you that 16 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: I hate to play to have Dallas win outright in 17 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: their game against the Clippers and Christoph perzingis played. Now, 18 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 1: that was a really I don't want to call it 19 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: a break. But when we made the pick last night 20 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: for the podcast yesterday, it was or on Tuesday, you know, 21 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: on on Tuesday night hitting into Wednesday. It was difficult 22 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: because I woke up to the news that Christoph Perzinga's 23 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: knee could keep him out. He was expected to play. 24 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: He played, so that was significant. That was a very 25 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: big story for us because him and Luco were great, 26 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: and that is going to be a real series. That 27 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: is not going to be a walk in the park 28 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: for the Clippers, and they better get ready for some 29 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: playoff basketball because Luca was ready, kp was ready. I 30 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 1: don't know if Paul George is ready. I mean PG playoff. 31 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: Paul showed up and that was not good for him. 32 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: He did not shoot the ball well. Team didn't play 33 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: well outright win We had plus six and a half, 34 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: so we will take that over in Denver and Utah 35 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: easily hit. That game was crazy. Utah is on fire offensively. 36 00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: That was our one loss. We took Denver minus four. 37 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: Four In the story of yesterday was teams that lost 38 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: Game one turned around and played very well in game 39 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: number two. So that's gonna be a trend here that 40 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about as we get to our picks 41 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: coming up here. Today. We had a very nice win 42 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: in the hockey game that we picked Colorado and Arizona. 43 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 1: Colorado scored six goals right themselves, so they got there. 44 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: They got it there themselves for the over. That series 45 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: is over, unfortunately, because that was a lot of fun 46 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 1: to bet on Arizona because they basically quit and the 47 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: Colorado Avalanche just kept on pouring on goals, so that 48 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: was fun. So we got the over in the Utah 49 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: Denver game and we got the win for Dallas plus 50 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: six and a half. Correct, the one loss was Denver 51 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: minus four. So before we get the plays, little business. Okay, 52 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: so we are giving away this Miles Sanders autographed Eagles helmet. 53 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: We're gonna be giving it away coming up here very soon. 54 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: All right.

We have Canucks 131 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: to beat the Blues, and the Thunder here to beat 132 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: the Rockets. Game one was awful, just awful. I didn't 133 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 1: get anything. I didn't get the game plan, I didn't 134 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: get the defense, I didn't get the tempo. It was. 135 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: It was stunning, to be quite honest. But what happened 136 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: on Wednesday I think will also happen on Thursday. I 137 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: think teams who lost are gonna come out of the 138 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: gate really fast. I got in the first quarter. I 139 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: got the Thunder at plus a half a point, plus 140 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: a half a point for the first quarter at minus 141 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: one ten. I got it at the West Gate. I'm 142 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: sure it's available in your book wherever you may be. 143 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: I think the Thunder come out of the gate fast. 144 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: I think they come out angry. I think Chris Paul 145 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: comes out angry. I think they'll play defense. I think 146 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: they'll actually run some offense. I think this team will 147 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: look much different here in the first quarter after losing 148 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: Game one in embarrassing fashion against the Rockets. I think 149 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: Billy Donovan's give him a tongue lashing. I think the 150 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: team practiced hard, and I think they come out of 151 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: the gates really really fast here. And I'm gonna take 152 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: the first quarter for the Rockets to be trailing the 153 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: Thunder and maybe being tied even. But if we're tied, 154 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: we have AH. So we win half a point minus 155 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: one ten on the Thunder after one quarter to lead 156 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,679 Speaker 1: tonight against the Houston Rockets. Now I have a second 157 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: play in this game, and it might be dangerous for 158 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: me to do this, And I understand that I got 159 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: that really wrong here with the Thunder in the Rockets 160 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: in Game one. I just can't understand. I just can't 161 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: believe that I read it that wrong. I was so 162 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: wrong about that team in game one. I'm gonna take 163 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: the two and a half points here after taking it 164 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: in the first quarter thunder to lead or to be tied. 165 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: I'm taking the plus two and a half for the game. 166 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,079 Speaker 1: I think the Rockets are going to have a real 167 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: test on their hands. I don't think the game is 168 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: going to be a blowout by any means. I think 169 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: it could be a one possession game. And I got 170 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,599 Speaker 1: plus two and a half here on the thunder to 171 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: maybe win the game outright, but most likely keeping the 172 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: game close. So we're taking the plus two and a 173 00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: half thunder against the Rockets. Plus two and a half 174 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: is our second play of the day. Third play. Let's 175 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: talk about the Magic and let's talk about the Bucks. 176 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: Milwaukee is laying thirteen points here in this game. Thirteen. 177 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: Did you know so far in the bubble when teams 178 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: are double digits, they're oh to five, maybe owen six, 179 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: now owen six in the bubble covering the spread. This 180 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: magic team is catching thirteen points. And they won the 181 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: first game outright. They won the first game outright. They 182 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: did it by playing up tempo, going back and forth. 183 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: Milwaukee's defense is bad. We talked about that before. Their 184 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: defense is just bad. I don't think they're gonna lock 185 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: down the Magic. Aaron Gordon may not play. We'll see 186 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: what happens with him. Michael Carter Williams may not play. 187 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: I think this is team for the Magic. They're playing 188 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 1: care free, they don't care. I'm gonna give you a 189 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: lean on the Magic plus thirteen if you want to 190 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: follow that trend where no team as double digits is 191 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: covered yet here you want to go ahead in the 192 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: bubble if you want to go ahead and take that 193 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: lean or two of them are the Bucks that they 194 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: lost both those games outright as a nineteen point favorite 195 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: and a fourteen point favorite. Here they're a thirteen point favorite. 196 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say play it, not gonna be an 197 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: official play, but the lean's gonna be on Magic plus 198 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 1: thirteen here against the Bucks. What we are gonna play though, 199 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: is the total. I'm gonna take the over to twenty 200 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: seven at bet MGM. I found this number over to 201 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: twenty seven for the Magic and the Bucks. I think 202 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 1: this team. Both these teams go real up tempo. I 203 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: think both these teams are gonna hit a bunch of shots, 204 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: no real defense being played. The Magic You may say 205 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 1: they had an anomaly shooting nights that is not typical 206 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: for them to be able to shoot the way that 207 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 1: they shot, but I'm just gonna I think offense will 208 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: be scored. It could be a blowout, but I don't 209 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: hate the blowout because I think that that factors into 210 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: our hands. Here at two twenty seven to play the 211 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: over at two twenty seven, So we're going over Magic 212 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 1: Bucks at two twenty seven. One more basketball play for 213 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,599 Speaker 1: you here, and it's with the Lakers and the Trailblazers. 214 00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 1: Lakers lose the game outright to Portland. It's damn Tom. 215 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: Here comes this great Portland Trailblazer team who they might 216 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: be one of the best eight seeds ever. They have length, 217 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: they have size. The problem for the Lakers they can't shoot, 218 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: and we saw it brutally in Game one. So this team, 219 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: I mean, Danny Green can shoot, but he's streaky. Lebron 220 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: can shoot, but he's streaky. Eight can shoot but he 221 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: is streaky. And Portland's defense is not horrible. They are 222 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: playing much better, but they do give up wide open threes. 223 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,079 Speaker 1: The Lakers were five of thirty two from behind the arc. 224 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: They think that nothing's wrong. But more than the way 225 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: they shot the basketball was the tempo in which they played. 226 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: And if you watch, I don't think they want to 227 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: go up tempo or push tempo against Portland because that 228 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: gets mismatches, that gives Portland a chance to find Damian 229 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: Lillard and CJ McCollum. They want to slow the game down, 230 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: so to me, regardless if the Lakers get hot or 231 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: not for shooting behind the arc, and that very well 232 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: might happen at Betan, the total is two to twenty 233 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 1: nine and a half. I think the Lakers can win 234 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: Game two, but I think this is gonna be a 235 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: low scoring game. I don't think this is gonna be 236 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: a game in the one tens and both these teams 237 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: filling it up. I don't see that because I don't 238 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: think the Lakers want to play like that. They walk 239 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: the ball up the court so much and they're like, look, 240 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: we they scored ninety three points. They became the first 241 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: team in like thirty five games to not score one 242 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: hundred points against the Trailblazers. Like that's incredible, and it 243 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: wasn't because of the defense per se. It was just 244 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: they missed a ton of threes. But it was also 245 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: their tempo. They just didn't push tempo. So I think 246 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: the Lakers are once again gonna walk the ball off 247 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: the court and do their Laker thing, slow it down. 248 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: We're taking the under with the Lakers and the Trailblazers, 249 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: so NBA plays four of them. Got a baseball play 250 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: here in a second, but going thunder first quarter plus 251 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: a half a point mis one ten. We're taking the 252 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: thunder at plus two and a half for the game. 253 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: At miss one ten, we're going over to twenty seven 254 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: for the Magic and the Bucks, although a lean on 255 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: the magic of plus thirteen and the Lakers and the 256 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: Trailblazers under two twenty nine and a half. One baseball 257 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: play for you. Reds taking on the Cardinals. Sonny Gray 258 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: Adam Wayne Wright. Sonny Gray is the best picture for 259 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: the Reds. Adam Wayne Wright's an incredible pitcher, has had 260 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: a great career. Gray two five ERA four and one 261 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: of the year Wayne Wright one point sixty four ERA. 262 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: He's two to zero in the year. But we haven't 263 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: seen much of the Cardinals due to COVID nineteen at DraftKings, 264 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: I found under under four and a half runs at 265 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: minus one thirty two. Both these guys are not getting hit. 266 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: Both these guys are pitching really well. Sonny Gray's look, 267 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 1: I said, four and one two point zero five era. 268 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: His whip is point nine to one. He's the best 269 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: pitcher on this Reds team. He's had, I mean ace 270 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: like stuff this year. So I don't think the Cardinals, 271 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: who don't have the greatest of offense right now, are 272 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: gonna put up a ton of runs early in the 273 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: first five. We're going first five under four and a 274 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: half runs at minus one thirty two. Sunny Gray Adam 275 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: Wainwright pitching battle two to one game, low scoring game early, 276 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: let the Bullpens figure it out later. Whoever's gonna win 277 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: this game, but pitching matchup two aces on the mound. Basically, 278 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: let's go under four and a half runs for the 279 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: first five at minus one thirty two. So those are 280 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: our five plays for you here on a very busy, 281 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: busy Thursday.
