For the wind, God 6 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: make a miracle. 7 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 4: I just chuck the water. 8 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 5: Hit that one from the parking lot. What's up the 9 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 5: general nation? 10 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 4: Welcome to the Big Bets on Campus Podcast presented by 11 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 4: bet MGM. This is the Final Four college basketball betting preview. 12 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 4: I'm stuck in joining me today for this episode. Well, 13 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 4: my fellow BBOC calls Mike Calabrese and Mike Randall. Mike 14 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,519 Speaker 4: and Mike, we got the Final four set. Unfortunately for 15 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 4: the podcast, no repeat with our future after hitting Yukon 16 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 4: last year. Hopefully some profited a bit off of the 17 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 4: Clemson Final four future that we had. But the most 18 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:12,839 Speaker 4: disappointing moment of the tournament for me was when Jamal 19 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 4: sched went down. I really believe Houston had a good 20 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 4: shot and I think they were going to get to 21 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 4: the title game if he didn't go down. The path 22 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 4: was there with NC State waiting and just an unfortunate injury, 23 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 4: which was the story of the season for Houston. Man 24 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 4: team just couldn't stay healthy and their most important player. 25 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 5: Goes down and that was just devastating for Houston, devastating 26 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 5: for our future. But we march on. 27 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 4: Before we get to the final four, I'll just get 28 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 4: your guys thoughts on the tournament so far. Pretty I've 29 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 4: had a bad tournament betting lise. I had one good 30 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 4: day that like saved me, had a big round robin 31 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 4: that was about it. Kind Of disappointed in the final four, 32 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 4: to be honest, because we got no upsets early right, 33 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 4: and then the good thing with that is that usually 34 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 4: get very good matchups and games later on. 35 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 5: I thought the. 36 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 4: Sweet sixteen eight little underwhelming. It's from like just an 37 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 4: entertainment and thrill factor. And then now we have two 38 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 4: near double digit spreads in the final four, which is 39 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 4: pretty wild if you go if you combine the spreads 40 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 4: right now, which is close to what twenty one, this 41 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 4: would be the highest combined spreads in the final four 42 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 4: since the since seeding began. So we don't even have 43 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 4: on paper amazing final four matchups. The Houston and the 44 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 4: Shed injury with Houston really hurts there. What can save 45 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 4: the tournament though, and as is always the case, is 46 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 4: a great final four and especially a great national championship 47 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 4: and if Chalk holds, that would be between Purdue and Yukon. 48 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 4: So pretty just overall, just that underwhelming tournament so far 49 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 4: for me, just like from an entertainment standpoint, and you know, 50 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 4: it's not the greatest final four. That was expecting better 51 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 4: things after the Chalky start. But here we are, and 52 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 4: we're going to try to find some winners and especially 53 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 4: talk some props too. And we'll also be back on 54 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 4: Sunday night Monday morning for the. 55 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 5: National title preview. 56 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 4: We'll we're talking whatever matchup it is, and we'll break 57 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 4: down some props there. But I'm curious to get you 58 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 4: guys just overarching thoughts on the tournament so far. 59 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 5: Rand. I'll start with you. 60 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, favorites and public sort of nailing each game takes 61 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 6: the drama out of the tournament. 62 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 2: Listen. I thought they did a terrible job seating. We 63 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 2: discussed this. 64 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 6: It felt like they seeded three days prior. Maybe they're 65 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 6: overwhelmed and they don't want to make that many changes. 66 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 6: But the game we wanted was Auburn Yukon in the East, 67 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 6: and we did not get that because the ejection with 68 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 6: the elbow, which shouldn't have been an ejection, and then 69 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 6: you know they just fold and they're not able to 70 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 6: stop pulliktas down the stretch. We knew the West bracket 71 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 6: was going to be the blow up bracket. Clemson almost 72 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 6: got all the way to the end, but Alabama got hot. 73 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 6: The reason that this isn't really a sexy Alabama team 74 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 6: is because they don't play defense, and everybody just relies 75 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,239 Speaker 6: on the three the other brackets we talked to South, 76 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 6: it was she Shed's injury changed the game. There is 77 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 6: no reasonable. 78 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 5: Opposite code tournament. 79 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: It changes it because if Shed, they lost by three. 80 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 6: Without Shed, I mean enough, guys, he's one of the 81 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 6: best players in the country. 82 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 2: They win that game and they probably. 83 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 6: Beat NC State, and listen, I think NC State, I 84 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 6: think Stuck will have a good championship game. I assume 85 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 6: Yukon is going to win. I know everybody's nuts about 86 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 6: the plane travel, enough with that. These are college kids. 87 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 6: It's two days from now, but I think we'll have 88 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 6: a compelling story because either we'll have Purdue versus Yukon, 89 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 6: which should be a really good matchup, or we'll have 90 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 6: Cinderella NC State rolling in against Yukon, So that should 91 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 6: be pretty good. The one that bothered me off also 92 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 6: was the Vescovie flu thing. He's critical to what Tennessee does. 93 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 6: If he's totally healthy, I believe they be Purdue. I 94 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 6: know he's not a big score, he's not a fifteen 95 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 6: to sixty per game score, but he's an elite defender. 96 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 6: Can easily get two to four steals every game, gets 97 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 6: into the lane and sets up people for other shots. 98 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 2: Adu had a terrible game. 99 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 6: Only one was connect So the external forces really bothered 100 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 6: me because it's changed the way the tournament is. But 101 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 6: if we get Purdue Yukon, it's going to be great. 102 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 6: And if we get an NC State team that actually 103 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 6: keeps it closer to Yukon, that's going to be compelling 104 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 6: as well. 105 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 2: So that's what I'm hoping for. 106 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, for me, it's hard to see NC State staying 107 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 4: in the same gym as Yukon. You would just have 108 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 4: clinging taking away burns and I don't know how NC 109 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 4: State would get stops. And I mean that spread would 110 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 4: be one of the highest we've ever seen in a 111 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 4: national title. For what it's worth, in the past sixty 112 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 4: years of the final four, this is the second highest 113 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 4: as far as spreads combined spreads in the final four. 114 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 5: The highest was. 115 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 4: In nineteen seventy two with UCLA and UNC and over 116 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 4: the past sixty years. During that time span, twelve teams 117 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 4: have closed above an eleven point favorite, which is where 118 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 4: Yukon sits now. Eight of the twelve were UCLA. That 119 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,799 Speaker 4: dominant UCLA team between nineteen sixty four and nineteen seventy three. 120 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 4: In the Championship NC State nineteen seventy four, was actually 121 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 4: a twelve point favorite versus Marquette, and they pushed. But 122 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 4: since then, since seating expanded in nineteen eighty five, we've 123 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 4: seen three favorites of more than twelve points in the 124 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 4: semi finals or later. All of them won, but it's 125 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 4: only happened three times, but none of them covered. We 126 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 4: saw it's hard to remember kenzag at twenty twenty one, 127 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 4: where you say you they were fourteen point favorite. They 128 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 4: ended up winning by three in that brilliant game. Kentucky 129 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 4: in the National Championship was a fourteen point favorite over 130 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 4: Syracuse in nineteen ninety six they won by nine, and 131 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 4: Duke in nineteen ninety nine in the Final four was 132 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 4: an eleven a half point favorite over Michigan State they 133 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 4: won by six. Calvary's curious to get your thoughts on 134 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 4: the tournament so far before we get into the final 135 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 4: four and breaking those games down, And yeah, I will 136 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 4: echo before you just to jump in yet. And Ziegler 137 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 4: had an awful day for Tennessee to like Connect, that 138 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,239 Speaker 4: was a fun game. I just seeing Edie and Connect 139 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 4: going back and forth. But Connect ultimately just didn't get 140 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 4: any help. Ziggler couldn't hit a shot. He couldn't even 141 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 4: make free throw in the first half. And a do 142 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 4: I mean talk about a disappearing act. He looked lost 143 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 4: out there. But Calbary's were your thoughts on the tournament 144 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 4: so far? 145 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: Yeah? I agree. 146 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 3: I thought we traded off the early upsets for some 147 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,559 Speaker 3: really compelling matchup and they just did materialize. I feel 148 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 3: just sick for Shed and Houston because they deserved, at 149 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 3: least the way that they played for the entire season, 150 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 3: the way that they weathered the injuries that they had. 151 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 3: I think they deserved to be in the final four. 152 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 3: It would certainly make for a better match up here. 153 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 3: And this is kind of what the push and pull 154 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 3: with college football talking about expanding the playoff, and you 155 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 3: get to determine it on the field or on the court, 156 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 3: and that makes it legitimate. The bigger the field in 157 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 3: a single elimination situation, the crazier things can go. I 158 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 3: understand those are two separate sports, but certainly in basketball, 159 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 3: none of us are going to sit here and say, 160 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 3: pre tournament six weeks ago, Alabama is a top five 161 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,199 Speaker 3: team in the country. Not to take it away from them, 162 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 3: they haven't won with smoke and mirrors. They've made their shots. 163 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 3: They played a little bit better on defense. I think 164 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 3: that they can make things interesting, at least for half. 165 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 3: I'll get to that in terms of my prop bet 166 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 3: that I liked the most in the semifinal. But on 167 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 3: the NC State side of things, like, I'm not even 168 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 3: sure there's people inside the NC State Athletic department that 169 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 3: really thought that there was a second weekend run, let 170 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 3: alone a run to the final four. Everything needed to 171 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 3: click right for them. It's a great story and I'm 172 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 3: happy for them, but I think it takes away from 173 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 3: these semifinals, certainly in terms. 174 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: Of these two teams. 175 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 3: All of that being said, you can wipe it all 176 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,839 Speaker 3: away if we get a great title game between Yukon 177 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 3: and Purdue and it's a one possession game one way 178 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 3: or the other, and we end up getting a classic 179 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 3: out of it. I think it can salvage the memory 180 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 3: of this tournament, but at this point it has been underwhelming. 181 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 1: On a personal note, I stuck my neck out. 182 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 3: You know, with all my lipsey slander. He played fine. 183 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 3: I was there up in Boston. What a great game. 184 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 3: I was lucky to be at one of the few 185 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 3: great games of the entire tournament against Illinois. But at 186 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 3: least they don't make a deep run and make me 187 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 3: look like a fool. And then you know, it wasn't 188 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 3: that Rick Barnes was out coached. It wasn't that Tennessee 189 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 3: was fraudulent in any way, shape or form. They just 190 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 3: got beat by a Purdue team that for a while, 191 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 3: I feel like I've been in the only one flying 192 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 3: the banner for Matt Paynter and Purdue. I think everyone's 193 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 3: at least narrative wisemen waiting for the bottom to fall out. 194 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 3: He said, you know, career struggles after the first weekend 195 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 3: at NANCAA tournament. 196 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: But this Purdue team, it just. 197 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 3: Seems I think because of they're in the shadow of 198 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 3: Yukon who is playing. 199 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 1: It's just such a killer level. 200 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 3: The way that they're playing makes ninety one UNLV look like, 201 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 3: you know, a merciful team, which they were not. Yukon 202 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 3: is just playing this blood thirsty brand of basketball. They're 203 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 3: so motivated. I am interested to see if any of 204 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 3: the travel has any effects on them or not. But overall, 205 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 3: I think Purdue's sustained level of excellence really for the 206 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,559 Speaker 3: entirety of the season is overshadowed a bit by Yukon. 207 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 3: I think in a normal year we'd be looking at 208 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 3: them as is this, you know, one of the best 209 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,719 Speaker 3: teams of the last ten years with a two time 210 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 3: National Player of the Year. 211 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: You look at Evan. 212 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 3: Media's stats and everything that he puts in to you know, 213 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 3: historical perspective on Edie's performance, I agree. 214 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: This guy has just played so well. 215 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 3: He's been able to, you know, essentially put the team 216 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 3: on his back at times. And for that reason, I'm 217 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 3: just praying that we get Yukon perdue in the national title. 218 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 3: It's the one ticket that I bought from the future's 219 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 3: perspective for this tournament. I got Purdue at plus six 220 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 3: fifty to win it all. I think I'll hedge certainly 221 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 3: a little bit if they do get to Monday night, 222 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 3: But overall, that's what I'm hoping for because I do 223 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 3: think a classic, vintage national title game will, you know, 224 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 3: essentially erase some of the issues that we had with 225 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 3: not getting great buzzer beaters, not getting Cinderellas and getting 226 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 3: some plat performances and what should have been good matchups. 227 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 4: All right, well, let's get into said games, and we 228 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 4: will start with the first tip off six oh nine 229 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 4: Eastern on TBS between NC State, the eleven seed, and 230 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 4: the number one seed Perdue boiler Makers. For what it's worth, 231 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 4: NC State an eleven seed team seeded ninth or lower. 232 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 4: In the final four zero to nine straight up, three 233 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 4: and six against the spread, they will look to become 234 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 4: the first team to make the championship seeded this low 235 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 4: or high. However you look at it. 236 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 5: Purdue is a nine and a half point favorite here 237 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 5: total sitting at one forty six. 238 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 4: You know, to me, look, if you look at NC State, 239 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 4: you got to give them credit for the run that 240 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 4: they're on. They won five games in five days to 241 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 4: win the ACC Tournament and get into the Dance, and 242 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 4: they've obviously won four straight in the tournament, but they've 243 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 4: definitely been fortunate. 244 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 5: You saw Marquette just couldn't make a wide open shot. 245 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 5: You know, if you look at a site like shot Quality. 246 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 4: Shot Quality has NC states of their past six wins, 247 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 4: five of them graded as losses. Over their past eight 248 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 4: games of which they've won them, all teams are shooting 249 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 4: twenty six percent from three. No one can make a 250 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 4: three against them. Prior to that stretch, they were outside 251 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 4: the top three hundred in three point defense. Does all 252 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 4: of that come crashing down against Purdue? 253 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 5: Eileen Perdue here? 254 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 4: I just think that, you know, DJ Burns has been incredible, 255 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 4: and this has been talked about a lot. He just 256 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 4: won't have the strength advantage down low, and Edie's length 257 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 4: is going to be such a problem. I like Burns 258 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 4: under points to especially if you. 259 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 5: Get buy a fifty, maybe a fifteen and a half 260 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 5: out there. 261 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 4: He's gone under that number twenty eight of forty games 262 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 4: this year, only average thirteen points per game. 263 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 5: And he's not going up against a guy with Edie's 264 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 5: length every day. 265 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 4: This is a totally different animal that he's going up against. 266 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 5: And here's the thing, there's an enormous risk for foul 267 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 5: trouble and NC State isn't particularly deep, and you know, 268 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 5: there's these two schools of thoughts. 269 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 4: With Purdue, you'll hear a lot of like casual recreational 270 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 4: fans will say, I hate watching Edie. The fouls are ridiculous. 271 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 4: And then you have like the college basketball media that's 272 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 4: like Edie is a god, like they have to defend 273 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 4: everything he does. It's as always, the truth is somewhere 274 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 4: in the middle. Like Eadie gets foult all the time, 275 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 4: he's he's very big, but there's also times I thought 276 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 4: in the tennesse again, they just missed a couple of 277 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 4: fouls on him right, there was a push off, there 278 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 4: was an elbow, So. 279 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 5: It's he's very difficult to officiate. 280 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 4: He definitely gets foult all the time, just look at 281 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 4: his arms, but because he's so big, he fouls too, 282 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 4: and sometimes he gets away with some fouls. The truth 283 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 4: is somewhere in the middle. It's not like he just 284 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 4: gets all the calls and it's not like he's flawless. 285 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 4: So I always get entertained by watching those two narratives 286 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 4: on Twitter, going. 287 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 5: Back and forth. 288 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 4: But I think that Eadie has a very good chance 289 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 4: of getting into the state into foul trouble. 290 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 5: Purdue. 291 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 4: Look, if anyone is going to hit that regression, that 292 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 4: looming regression for NC State, it's Purdue. One of the 293 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 4: top three point shooting teams in the country. A couple 294 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 4: other props that I like are Gillis over threes, Lawyer 295 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 4: over threes like one and a half are prop extraordinary, 296 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 4: the prop docker Nick Giffin. He makes them like one seven, 297 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 4: one eight around there. They can get plus money on 298 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 4: both over one and a half three pointers. But because 299 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 4: I think that NC State they're not going to be 300 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 4: able to single coverage like they like to just use 301 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 4: a lot of single coverage and speak, they're not going 302 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 4: to do that here. And I think that NC State, 303 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 4: which is they press at a very high rate for 304 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 4: the whole season. They've been doing it as much, especially 305 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 4: in n ACC tournament, and then you know they don't 306 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 4: they don't have to. They're not deep, and they were 307 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 4: on this crazy run they had to save their legs. 308 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 4: But now you get, you know, some time off before 309 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 4: the final four. I think that we might see some 310 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 4: press here from NC State try to pressure produced guards 311 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 4: and the mistakes. But I think it's gonna lead us 312 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 4: some transition threes. You've heard Painter talk a lot about 313 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 4: wanting to get out and transition more, and then they're 314 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 4: gonna have to collapse on Edie. 315 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 5: Like you can't. 316 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 4: Afford to guard him one on one, you also can't 317 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 4: afford to get in foul trouble. And I think that's 318 00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 4: going to lead you a lot of kicked out threes, 319 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 4: and I think Lawyer and Gillis can take advantage. And 320 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 4: another one that's been talking about a lot is Braden 321 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 4: Smith over assists over six and a half assists. I 322 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 4: really like too, but I like Purdue here I make 323 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 4: this closer to eleven eleven and a half, and if 324 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 4: the threes are falling for Purdue, I think it might 325 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 4: be the the end of the run for NC State. 326 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 4: But they're on some magic carpet, right, Everything just seems 327 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 4: to go their way. Burns has been incredible, But I 328 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 4: think the run ends here, right. I'll throw it to 329 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 4: you first. What are you seeing in NC State? Purdue? 330 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm taking I'm taking the points with NC State. 331 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 6: I've I'm done doubting them. The problem with Edie because 332 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 6: you've seen teams like Wisconsin be successful against them. What 333 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 6: you have to do against Deedie is you gotta hold 334 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 6: that box out, and Tennessee didn't do that. Tennessee would 335 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 6: box him a little and then release to get the ball, 336 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 6: and he just got the ball every single time. 337 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 2: So I do think. 338 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 5: This also in foul trouble, which was not helpful they. 339 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 6: Did because they didn't have a big that had to 340 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 6: do anything against Edie. Also, so I think Burns is 341 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 6: passing Dara. I think needs to stay on the floor. 342 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 6: I know one of my favorite props is dr are 343 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 6: under ten and a half rebounds because when he goes 344 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 6: against a team with a significant big he doesn't have. 345 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 6: That doesn't mean it's not effective, just means that he's 346 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 6: not going to be able to grab his normal amount 347 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 6: of rebounds. 348 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 2: They have to do some things on offense on. 349 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 6: The interior to keep Edie occupied, and they have to 350 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 6: hold the box out. It's almost as if stuck the 351 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 6: guy boxing out. Eadie should not worry about getting the 352 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 6: ball because if you release, it's a jump ball and 353 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 6: Edie's getting it every single time. I do think they'll 354 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 6: be able to do a little bit more on the 355 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 6: interior and listen, I need some luck. I need a 356 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 6: player such as Jaden Taylor, who's a thirty six thirty 357 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 6: seven percent three point shooter yet has gone seven straight 358 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 6: games with eight points or less. Prior to that, he 359 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 6: had eighteen eighteen twenty eight. I need him to get 360 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 6: hot from three. I think they'll be able to guard 361 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 6: the perimeter decently well. I think they'll be able with 362 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 6: Horn and or Sell to attack off the dribble. So 363 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 6: I need a couple things to go my way. But 364 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 6: it's a lot of points here. It's an awful lot 365 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 6: of points. And I do think that they're not gonna 366 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 6: want to foul out Burns right away. They're gonna want 367 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 6: to keep this game. We're gonna love play a little bit. 368 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 6: So if Burns in dr can do and at least 369 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 6: keep eating somewhat limited, I'm talking twenty three points, twenty 370 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 6: four points, not thirty five or forty, I think they 371 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 6: can stay at it. It's a lot of points. I 372 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 6: get that haven't been impressed with the Purdue shooting. I 373 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 6: know you think that's coming, but I think Jayden Taylor 374 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 6: is also coming as well. 375 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 2: So I'll take the points to. 376 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 6: What NC State don't feel great about it, and I 377 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 6: feel like if you want to bet Purdue. How I 378 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 6: would bet them is on the money line to win 379 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 6: the national title would be my suggestion, because I don't 380 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 6: want to worry about the nine here, and I think 381 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 6: you can probably get them at a better number than 382 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 6: you would get them in the championship game. What would 383 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 6: you make stuck that championshi game? If you kind of Purdue, 384 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 6: it'd make it four. What would you make it? 385 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, three and a half four, three and a half. 386 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 6: Four, So they're not gonna be plus two thirty where 387 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 6: you can get them to twenty whatever it is to 388 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 6: win the title. So that's my suggestion on how to 389 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 6: bet it. If you like Purdue, just bet them for 390 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 6: the title. But I against ease they can keep it close. 391 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 6: I do, but I'm gonna need some things to go 392 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 6: my way. If produced shooting the lights out and I 393 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 6: don't get a good game from Taylor, is going to 394 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 6: be a rough one. 395 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean maybe the like market wise it could 396 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 4: you could have some ratings would have it like three. 397 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,959 Speaker 4: Now depends on what these two teams do Saturday. Like 398 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 4: if Yukon rolls again, By the way, they're ten and 399 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,199 Speaker 4: zero against the spread. They've been up by thirty in 400 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 4: every tournament game. They went on a thirty to nothing run, 401 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 4: a thirty to nothing run against Illinois in. 402 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 5: The Elite eight. Illanova, I know, went on a twenty 403 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 5: five nothing run against Oklahoma in the Remember that game 404 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 5: in the final four. 405 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 2: And like yeah, Buddy Hills, Yeah, Buddy Hill. 406 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 4: Ninety I think they won, like ninety five to fifty eight. 407 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 4: Twenty five nothing run. Thirty to nothing run against an 408 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 4: offense like Illinois is insane. It's insane. So if you 409 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 4: get a Connecut rolls again, like and this is a 410 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 4: national title, public is gonna you know, can have to 411 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 4: say here, and who's you know, lining up to bet 412 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 4: against Yukon. Everyone's betting the national title, So you could 413 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 4: get some you know, inflation on the Yukon line. Like 414 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 4: you know, if ucom was minus three, you're gonna have 415 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 4: the whole world trying. 416 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 5: To bet that. 417 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 4: So I would think it would be potentially a little 418 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 4: higher because Yukon is just an absolute wagon. 419 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 5: We'll get to them in a second, but I do 420 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 5: think that, like the foul, you know, it sucks to. 421 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 4: Talk about because it's that's that's besketball. A lot of 422 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 4: these games come down to random shooting variants. And in 423 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 4: this case, when you're dealing with Edie, it's gonna come 424 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 4: down to fouls when they happen to who they happen. 425 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,199 Speaker 4: Like if eat, you get in foul trouble too, and 426 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 4: that changes the complexion of the game. You know, if 427 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 4: he's trying to guard Burns early and Burns you know, 428 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 4: twists and turn turns and get some a foul and 429 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 4: then there's like an offensive foul and he has two 430 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 4: fouls five. 431 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 5: Minutes into the game. Changes the entire game. 432 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 4: But the reason it's so critical for insis State and 433 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 4: the reason I think they have to help on Edie 434 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 4: is they're only going seventh. They only go seventy, Like 435 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 4: that's they played their starting five. They bring in Taylor 436 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 4: and then Middlebrooks comes in and he's been playing really well, 437 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 4: but that's it. So like you got the seven guys, 438 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 4: that's all they're playing with, and they just saw Zach 439 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 4: Edie go for forty like you can't. So they're gonna say. 440 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 4: I think what they have to do is, all right, 441 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 4: we can't go single the college. We're gonna get fault 442 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,479 Speaker 4: or not deep. We can't let him beat us. So 443 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 4: in the half court, I think they have to live 444 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 4: with the Purdue's shooting. 445 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 5: Right. 446 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 4: You got to say we're gonna take away Edie, we're 447 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 4: gonna help on him, we're gonna double him, we're gonna trap, 448 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 4: and you gotta live with Purdue jump shots. I think 449 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 4: that's the what Keats has to think here. You can't 450 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,719 Speaker 4: just let Edie dunk and get his bigs into foul trouble, 451 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 4: just like they did against Tennessee. So I think after 452 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 4: seeing that game last week, that's got to be the approach. 453 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 4: I think it's gonna open up some opportunities on the perunter, 454 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 4: and I think it's basically gonna come down to produce 455 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 4: guards and you know he's still going to get his 456 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 4: But can they hit those threes? 457 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 5: And we'll see if maybe. 458 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 4: NC State, which one of the reasons an avata is 459 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 4: the don't turn it over, so like they're they're not 460 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 4: giving away extra possessions. But we'll see if they can 461 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 4: actually force Purdue into some turnovers, up their press rate 462 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 4: and we'll see if that's the means to some quick 463 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:23,719 Speaker 4: and easy buckets. But Calgaryes, what are you seeing here? 464 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 3: One thing you guys haven't touched on yet, and this 465 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 3: isn't news for a Final Four. But of course they're 466 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 3: playing it in a football stadium for no good reason. 467 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 3: You know, they could play it in a basketball arena, 468 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 3: but instead they want to pack the seats, so they're 469 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,479 Speaker 3: playing at State Farm Stadium. Does that have any impact 470 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 3: on the shooting. There's been all kinds of studies back 471 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 3: and forth. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. They've overinflated 472 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 3: the basketballs at least that's what my eyes tell me 473 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 3: at some of these venues, and you've seen teams all 474 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 3: of a sudden, you know, who should be knocking down 475 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 3: wide open threes not being able to throw it in 476 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 3: the ocean. So that at least is on the table, 477 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 3: and it's one of the reasons why I feel good 478 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 3: about Purdue winning. I'm actually staying away. I think this 479 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 3: number is right on my power ranking in terms of 480 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 3: the spread. But what I like is, yes, they're gonna 481 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 3: at times double edy and they're going to work the 482 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 3: ball around. It's one of the reasons that Purdue is 483 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 3: top thirty nationally an open three point rate, and they 484 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 3: shot forty two percent from deep in Big Ten play, 485 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 3: so they're capable of making it. The thing about it though, 486 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 3: is where you look across the bracket and you look 487 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 3: at a team like Alabama, if their threes aren't going in, 488 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 3: there's no backup plan that's actually going to lead them 489 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 3: to victory. Whereas for the boiler Makers, they shot three 490 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 3: for fifteen against Tennessee, but they had other plans in place. 491 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 3: They scored twenty one points on twenty two ball screens 492 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,239 Speaker 3: in that game. You know, almost a full point per 493 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 3: possession in those situations. So at least I know that 494 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 3: Painter has something to go to. It's not just we 495 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 3: need thirty five for med or we need to knock 496 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 3: down twelve or thirteen threes. They have ways to generate offense. 497 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 3: So if there are issues with knocking down jump shots, 498 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 3: I don't think they're dead in the water. But this 499 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 3: has passed for me in terms of a side you 500 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 3: mentioned it stuck. In terms of Braden Smith's assist numbers, 501 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 3: it's my favorite prop on the board. I'm actually going 502 00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 3: to go with him to get eight or more at 503 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 3: plus one thirty in the market. He finished second nationally 504 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 3: and assists per game this season, and he crossed this 505 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 3: number eight or more in eighteen of his thirty five starts. 506 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 3: This season, NZ State also allows assists on fifty percent 507 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 3: of made baskets, which ranks one hundred and fifty eight nationally. 508 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 3: And then when you look at the easy buckets, once 509 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 3: he gets in the lane, if he gets at to eedy, 510 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 3: he always finishes. He had four assists directly to Edy 511 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 3: against the Zags, four more against Tennessee, so I think 512 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 3: that's going to be an opportunity for him to cruise 513 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 3: pass this number. And then finally, if you remove their 514 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 3: blowout win against Utah State in the round of thirty 515 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 3: two and is early exit due to an injury against 516 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,360 Speaker 3: Michigan State in the Big Ten Tournament. He's averaged thirty 517 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 3: seven minutes per game dating back to late January, so 518 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 3: best ability is availability he's going to be on the court. 519 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 3: Sean Kerner from our predictive analytics department said they have 520 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 3: him tabbed for thirty six minutes or more in this game. 521 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 3: I bet he plays just about every minute, So I 522 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 3: like him to hit eight or more at plus one thirty. 523 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think Nick Giffin makes this close just under eight. 524 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 4: I like that as well, and especially if I think 525 00:24:58,280 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 4: NZ State's going to maybe try to press a little 526 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 4: more as I mentioned, so that could lead to some 527 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 4: transition points and some assists in the open floor. So yeah, 528 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 4: I really like Smith over assists. I like some lawyer 529 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 4: in Gillis threes, and I like Burns under because I 530 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 4: just think he's been on such a tear. Numbers a 531 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 4: bit inflated, like, yeah, we're just thirteen points per game. 532 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 4: Now you're now this line is fourteen and a half, 533 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 4: fifteen and a half, you know, especially under fifteen a half. 534 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 4: To go under that twenty eight or forty times ball 535 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 4: trouble risk. And he's got to go up against the 536 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 4: length of Edie in the paint won't be as easy 537 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,919 Speaker 4: as it has been against some of the other teams 538 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 4: that he has faced. Yeah, I think that's Did you 539 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 4: have any other props you want to mention or anything else? 540 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 5: Randall? 541 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 6: No, I agree. I'm gonna be on Taylor if I again, 542 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 6: I like to marry. We talk about this, the props 543 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 6: to how we think the game's gonna go NC State. 544 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 6: It's got to get perimeter scoring and they have to 545 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 6: be able to attack. I mean Connect was able to 546 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 6: do that no problem. Now the perimeterive players Horn Connect 547 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 6: guys like that are not nearly at the level of Taylor, 548 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 6: like of Connect but they're gonna have to be able 549 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 6: to hit some shots. I know it's a football stadium, 550 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 6: it's going to be suppressed, a little bit, but that's 551 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 6: how I'm looking. If I think the game's going to 552 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 6: be close, I'm gonna be looking to fade a little 553 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 6: bit on eaty total production and to hit the NC 554 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,880 Speaker 6: State guards on the perimeter et points in three pointers. 555 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 6: Even though shooting is tough. But we've seen it before. 556 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 6: Once eaven get hot and the other one can struggle. 557 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 6: I couldn't believe Oklahoma got blown up by villain over 558 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 6: that night. 559 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 2: That was crazy. But that's what NC State's gonna need. 560 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 2: And it's possible. Bill no A Georgetown stuck eighty five. 561 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 2: We've seen it, but we're just gonna need some help. 562 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 5: BBOC is presented by North Carolina's newest sportsbook, bet MGM 563 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,719 Speaker 5: use bonus code action when signing up to get one 564 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 5: hundred and fifty dollars in bonus bets when you bet 565 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 5: five dollars for new users in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, 566 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,959 Speaker 5: New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, 567 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 5: and Wyoming. Terms conditions apply. Must be twenty one or older. 568 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 5: Gambling problem call one one hundred gambler. All right, let's 569 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 5: move on to the second game, eight to forty nine 570 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 5: Eastern on TBS between Alabama and Yukon. Yukon's an eleven 571 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 5: and a half point favorite here. They're against the spread 572 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 5: wagon total sitting up one sixty one and a half. Look, 573 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 5: it's hard. 574 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 4: It's hard for me to imagine Alabama getting many stops 575 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 4: in this game. The elephant in the room is how 576 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 4: many threes can they make? What they shot forty four 577 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 4: percent over their past two games. They got hot against 578 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 4: North Carolina, they got hot against Clemson, had some unheralded 579 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 4: heroes in that one hitting threes in. 580 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 5: The second half. They shot forty four percent. 581 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 4: I think in their wins this year they're like forty 582 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 4: two forty three percent from three, and their losses their 583 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 4: twenty seven to twenty eight percent. A lot of that 584 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 4: correlates with their home in a way, shooting splits in 585 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 4: this game. I will say, look that Yukon's transition d 586 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:59,439 Speaker 4: is great, but Alabama They just went up against two 587 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 4: really good position defenses in Carolina and Clemson, and they 588 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 4: were able to score at will. The threeze we obviously falling. 589 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 4: There are rim and three offense. I think they shot 590 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 4: one mid range jumper against Clemson. That's problematic. Against Yukon, 591 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 4: you're not gonna get anything at the rim. Illinois, what 592 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 4: were they oh of nineteen on shots contested by Donathan Klingon, 593 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 4: who had just an epic game against the Alana. The 594 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 4: Yukon drop defense kind of forces you into the mid range. 595 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 4: I mean Alabama, no one takes fewer mid range shots 596 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 4: in Alabama. They're still gonna get up their threes. If 597 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 4: I'm Nate Oats, you gotta try to play fast. You 598 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 4: gotta score in transition. And I'm saying, well, yeah, I'm 599 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 4: I'm like ban twos in a half court just we're 600 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 4: not gonna get We're not gonna stop them. Play smaller, right, 601 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 4: you gotta play who cares about your rim defense? You 602 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 4: gotta play Nelson who can potentially hit some threes pull 603 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 4: clinging away from the net from the hoop, and you 604 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 4: gotta shoot I don't know, fifty threes and hope you 605 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 4: know you in their wins. 606 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 5: They're shooting forty three, forty four percent. 607 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 4: You got to hit, like, I don't know what to 608 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 4: win this game, sixteen seventeen threes to have a shot, 609 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 4: and even then it might not be enough because Yukons 610 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,959 Speaker 4: should score at will. I can't lay this number now 611 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 4: that it's out to eleven and a half twelve. But 612 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 4: I'm not playing Alabama either. I'm not get in front 613 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 4: of this Yukon train. And I think the spread. I 614 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 4: think Yukon's going to win because they're going to get 615 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 4: so many easy buckets at will. But I think the 616 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 4: spread and whether or not Alabama can put a scare 617 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 4: on the gun basically just comes down to three point 618 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 4: shooting variants with this number, which I think is about right. 619 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 4: And there's just something about this Yukon team. They you know, 620 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 4: you would think of the national title. They're national defending champs, 621 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 4: like there's gonna be some complacency now. Hurley has them 622 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 4: every game. They're angry, they're out for blood. They play 623 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 4: with a chip on their shoulder. So you you could see, 624 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 4: like if Alabama's threes aren't falling, like you could see 625 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 4: some a couple of kill shots in this game maybe 626 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 4: not thirty nothing, but ah Albana is gonna have to 627 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 4: make jumpers here against a team that does a really 628 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 4: good job of taking away the three with their length 629 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 4: and their scheme on the defensive end. Jim Root on 630 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 4: our if you haven't listened to the Three Man Weaves 631 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,719 Speaker 4: Final four preview, check that episode out that's out now. 632 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 4: He mentioned Newton over rebounds. I like that album is 633 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 4: gonna be firing threes. They are a you know, a 634 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 4: bad defensive rebounding team. I think Yukon can eat on 635 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 4: the offensive class and there's gonna be a lot of 636 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 4: long rebounds. Newton can clean those up. And I think 637 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 4: that Albama's gonna, you know, there's gonna be a lot 638 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 4: of shots in this game. I think Alabama's gonna try 639 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 4: and play faster, try and play the offensive line lineup, 640 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 4: try and just fire threes. Ran before I see if 641 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 4: you will potentially try and lay on the tracks and 642 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 4: get in front of this you come back. 643 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 5: And I do want to mention our. 644 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 4: Discord mentioned Nick Giffin Shawn Kerner basically like getting away 645 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 4: money and with their props all tournament and they'll be 646 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 4: doing baseball every sport all year round.

Are you laying on the tracks or 659 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 5: are you jumping on board? 660 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 2: I'm on board. 661 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 6: I can't see a team that has yet to allow 662 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 6: more than fifty eight points in this entire tournament, and 663 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 6: a team that just beat Illinois, one of the best 664 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 6: offensive teams in the entire nation, by twenty five, yet 665 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 6: they only shot three of seventeen from three point range. 666 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 5: It's just too much and I hate even the three 667 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 5: Well this tournament. 668 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 2: What happens when that happens, That's my point. 669 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 6: Like they could blow their doors off here Alabama, I 670 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 6: thought stuck Tennessee was done when Vescavie had the flow 671 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 6: because I just saw this stupid Creighton variants coming through 672 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 6: with the threes and it didn't happen. At some point, 673 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 6: you need to do something else. Yukon can guard you. 674 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 6: Yukon can hit the mid range. Yukon can get you 675 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 6: in transition. Even though they don't play fast. They're great 676 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 6: on defense, They're great on the boards. They have depth. 677 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 6: They have what eight guys at average twelve twelve minutes 678 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 6: per game or more. 679 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 2: I can't see it. I just cannot see it at all. 680 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 2: I'm laying the points. Nato, It's great job. They hit 681 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 2: a lot of shots. 682 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 6: Grant Nelson, I'm looking to fade everyone on the perimeter 683 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 6: with Alabama, I think Yukon is the real deal. 684 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 2: They're legit. 685 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 6: They can do it any which way you want. However 686 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 6: you want to play Alabama, I get it. They'd have 687 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 6: to hit sixty sixty five percent of their three pointers. 688 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 6: That is not something I want to bet on. They 689 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 6: keep in mind also that when Alabama that do you 690 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 6: want to say they beat Clemson? 691 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 2: That's fair. They gave up eighty two points to Clemson 692 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 2: when PJ. 693 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 6: Hall fouled out and a Clemson team that really was 694 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 6: what Chase Hunter basically that was their time and Cheflin. 695 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 6: Now you're facing a team like Connecticut. How does Kennet 696 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 6: can not get to one hundred in this game. It's 697 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 6: not like Alabama has shown you the ability to play defense. 698 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 6: Alabama gave a eighty seven points in North Carolina, gave 699 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 6: a two points to Clemson, gave up ninety six points 700 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 6: to Charleston. Yes, I know a lot was it late 701 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 6: in the game, but they're still not playing any defense. 702 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 2: Yukon has it all. Danny Hurley chip on his shoulder. 703 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 2: They just do too much. I can't take Alabama. Here's 704 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 2: some lay in the points with Yukon. 705 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, he even mentioned you know, you mentioned Hall filed 706 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 4: out for Clemson, and you know Alabama went sixteen of 707 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 4: thirty six from three. You had Jaron Stevenson at five 708 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 4: threest Cayo average is five points per game, came off 709 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 4: the bench, hit five threes and scored nineteen pointsoints and 710 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 4: in that game close all the way until the very end. 711 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:09,439 Speaker 5: With Clemson one of the best free throw shooting teams 712 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 5: in the country, a bunch of eighty percent free throw 713 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 5: shooters just breaking. 714 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 4: They went three of eleven in the second half, fifty 715 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 4: percent for the game, a bunch of one and ones. 716 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 4: Some of the free throw shooting this tournament has been hard, 717 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 4: so Bama definitely was super fortunate in that game. 718 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 5: And then the game before you get you know, Grant 719 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 5: Nelson going just completely ballistic, which isn't going to happen 720 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,239 Speaker 5: every day. And yeah, you mentioned it. 721 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 4: Yukon's offense, their motion offense shotut Tane mcgrathy is a 722 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 4: really good piece out on breaking down the offenses and 723 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 4: defenses preach of the final four teens breaks down their 724 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 4: motion offense. It's just the thing of beauty and they 725 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 4: can beat you in so many ways. And Bama is 726 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 4: going to be lost on that end trying to defend Yukon. 727 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 4: And you know you mentioned Yukon's defense. Castle has been unbelievable. 728 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 4: I mean he just completely put the cuffs on Sham 729 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 4: and he's been doing it all season and all tournament. Ah, 730 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 4: He's been unbelievable on that end of the floor as 731 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 4: a lockdown defender. Calviris'll throw it to you, are you 732 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 4: laying on the tracks? Kind of hinted at it and 733 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 4: trying to get in front of this Yukon ATM or 734 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 4: you're jumping on board and sticking your card in for 735 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 4: some cash. 736 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 3: Let's go with some in a little exotic, a little 737 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 3: bits of a flyer, something that's going to pay out 738 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 3: six to one. Could I interest you guys in Alabama 739 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 3: winning in the first half and Yukon winning the game 740 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 3: at six to one. 741 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 1: Now, now hear me out here. 742 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 3: Alabama second nationally and first half points per game in 743 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 3: nearly forty three. Yukon first nationally and second half scoring 744 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 3: margin at over eight points per game, actually eight point four, 745 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 3: and that's with them emptying their bench, so they just 746 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 3: run away from teams late. Their defense puts the vice 747 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 3: grip on teams in the second half. Their second and 748 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 3: two point percentage defense, they're first nationally and at the 749 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 3: rim points per possession allowed. Just overall, we know what 750 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,240 Speaker 3: the game script's gonna be. Yukon in the second half 751 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 3: is going to get the best of Alabama. 752 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. 753 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 3: With all the three point variants, I know they're going 754 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 3: to take thirty five threes in this game. They're probably 755 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 3: gonna take fifteen to twenty in the first half. I 756 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,839 Speaker 3: don't need a whole lot to go right in terms 757 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 3: of three pointers falling for Alabama to just inch out 758 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 3: and get past them in that first twenty minutes. If 759 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 3: they make five or six threes, I think then all 760 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 3: of a sudden, it becomes a question of how motivated 761 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 3: and how hot out of the gates does Yukon come 762 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 3: in this game. Because you'll get the last one against 763 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 3: Illinois yesterday, that thirty to zero run, But you know 764 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 3: that race. 765 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:31,800 Speaker 1: To twenty, they were a little bit sluggish. 766 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 3: It looks kind of like a game where Yukon couldn't, 767 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 3: you know, put the ball in the basket, or Illinois 768 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 3: should say, but Yukon wasn't running away from them right away. 769 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 1: And this travel element is a little. 770 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,439 Speaker 3: Interesting to me because it's not necessarily just the time 771 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 3: zone difference or what the tip off time, but they 772 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 3: lost an entire night of sleep where they were like 773 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 3: flying in the middle of the night and then checking 774 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 3: into the hotels and they're complaining about, you know, the 775 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 3: beds are smaller the NC State's beds. I just think 776 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 3: there's a chance that they come out a little bit 777 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 3: more uggish than we're used to because at this point 778 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,320 Speaker 3: they've come out absolutely insanely locked in, at least on 779 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 3: the defensive end in every single performance. It made it 780 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 3: so difficult for teams to score against them. But Alabama 781 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 3: at least I know the great equalizer being the three 782 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 3: point shot. I just got to get lucky, and I 783 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 3: think it's six to one. Feeling incredibly confident that whether 784 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:20,879 Speaker 3: Alabama has a one point lead or a ten point 785 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 3: lead at halftime, you gun's going to win this game. 786 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,280 Speaker 1: Yukon are absolute killers. 787 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,240 Speaker 3: So six to one is the only real long shot 788 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 3: bet on the board that I think has peaked my interest, 789 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 3: because otherwise this game is screaming snoozer to me, because 790 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 3: I think there's a great chance that if the three 791 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 3: zone fall, where is Alabama going to get their points? 792 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:40,839 Speaker 3: You get to the hoop, you run into Kling Kong, 793 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 3: you get in the mid range. They don't have any 794 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 3: practice taking those shots the entire season, and I think 795 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 3: from an emotional perspective, they really need that early success 796 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 3: just to be viable in the game at all. 797 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 1: So I'll go ahead and take this double result. I 798 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 1: think this is an interesting one. 799 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 3: I'd really play it anywhere above five to one. That 800 00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,399 Speaker 3: was my threshold for playing something like this. To see 801 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 3: it at six to two one. I think this has 802 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 3: interesting value for a team that potentially could play with 803 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 3: nothing to lose, and like, at least we know their 804 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 3: backcourt is led by an All American in seers, Like, 805 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 3: yes they're the underdog. Yes they're outclass in a lot 806 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 3: of ways. And we see all these different ways that 807 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 3: Yukon's going to score in the half court. I think 808 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 3: that'll matter in the second half when they're closing them 809 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,479 Speaker 3: out early on. Maybe they can speed up the tempo 810 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 3: a little bit, maybe have it be a tiny bit 811 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:27,240 Speaker 3: helter skelter, get some people open in transition, hit some threes. 812 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 1: That's the game script I'm envisioning, and hopefully. 813 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 5: I get it. 814 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 1: I think I get it more than one out of 815 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: six times. I think it's gonna happen. 816 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,399 Speaker 3: You know, let's call it fifteen percent of the time 817 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,280 Speaker 3: they knock down some of those early threes. 818 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: Still go ahead with this prop, but. 819 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you're you're you know, when you're looking 820 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 4: for something like that, you're looking for variance, and you're 821 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:50,320 Speaker 4: shrinking the time, and you know you're gonna get a 822 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,319 Speaker 4: ton of threes and you don't need them to hit 823 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 4: for forty minutes. 824 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 5: You just need them to come out hot. We've seen 825 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 5: you kind of times come out sluggish this year. Then 826 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 5: they kind of just turn the switch again. 827 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 4: It was twenty three twenty three, then I think it 828 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 4: was fifty three twenty three, which is in sight to behold, right, 829 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 4: are any props or anything else you're targeting from this 830 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 4: game now? 831 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 6: Still looking at the perimeter players for Alabama. I do 832 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,439 Speaker 6: think Clingon's going to clean up on the boards as well, 833 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 6: So I'm looking at that. I just a it's a 834 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 6: role for me and I wouldn't be surprised if you 835 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,359 Speaker 6: come blow him out. So that gets me a little 836 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,320 Speaker 6: shaky with the props. I'll hit the first game and 837 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:29,760 Speaker 6: then say for the finals. 838 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 5: Any props you're targeting coveries No for this game. 839 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,760 Speaker 3: I basically I did an episode with the prop doctor, 840 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 3: Doctor Nick, and then with Sean Kerner, and I wanted 841 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 3: to pick his brain a little bit on you know, 842 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 3: all the three point variants. Do you see the three 843 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,760 Speaker 3: point ladder play for any of the Alabama perimeter players? 844 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 3: And essentially he was looking in at the way that 845 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 3: Yukon defends and does not give up a whole lot 846 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 3: of open threes, and for that reason, he actually thinks 847 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 3: that it's a pass for him in terms. 848 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 1: Of those numbers. I was I was hope when he 849 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:01,280 Speaker 1: would say, oh, let's. 850 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 3: Look at sears at three or more threes and see 851 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 3: if there's some value there. But the fact that he 852 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 3: kind of talked me off, that that's enough for me 853 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:07,879 Speaker 3: to pass. 854 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 4: All right, good stuff, and this episode is brought to 855 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 4: you by the spring cleaning champions, Manscaped the season.
