It feels 0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:20.280 like we have been waiting for this for almost a year. 0:01:20.319 --> 0:01:23.800 The regular season, never forget about it, the playoffs, never 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:27.080 forget about it. Everybody has been waiting for the clash 0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:30.280 that starts tonight at Oracle. We are going to break 0:01:30.319 --> 0:01:33.160 it down into a fine little powder. What we do 0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:35.520 with that powder has put it on our bets. We 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:38.920 shall see. I'm also gonna give you my starting lineup. Listen, 0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:41.680 I've been hot recently, but like we do, we hold 0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:45.280 ourselves accountable. I was not on point yesterday. I will 0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:48.520 acknowledge it. We'll talk about that a little bit later on. 0:01:48.640 --> 0:01:51.800 And also we gave you our rankings for the guards 0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:54.920 of the Big Three lead that's gonna be kicking off 0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:58.400 next later on this month.

But like I said, it is the 0:02:08.280 --> 0:02:11.200 NBA Finals kick tipping off tonight, and so our poll 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:13.760 question has to do with that as well. And you 0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:16.480 can get that on at f n T S Y Radio, 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:20.120 on Twitter, or your boy Dame Martinez at spitting Speeds 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:23.240 on Twitter. Here's the question, how will the trilogy end? 0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:26.440 How is this series gonna go down? Call your shot 0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:29.200 and make your pick. Will it be Warriors in a 0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:31.520 relatively easy win in four or five games? Will it 0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:34.120 be the Warriors in a longer series six or seven games. 0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:37.240 Will it be the Calves in a short series four 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:39.400 or five games? Or will it be the Calves in 0:02:39.480 --> 0:02:42.639 six or seven games like it was last year? Remember 0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:45.560 our boy, Donnie Burns says, Calves and six. We're gonna 0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:48.120 get JP on the record, and your boy Speeds and 0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:51.000 spitting statistician makes his official call for the NBA Finals 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:54.160 tonight on the Fantasy Freestyle. Come all right back after 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:56.360 the break, We're gonna talk Major League Baseball for a 0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:59.720 little while here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the award 0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:16.880 winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle. 0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:19.760 Let's your a boyd Dane Martinez holding you down on 0:03:19.880 --> 0:03:23.680 a Thursday evening, the first day of June, as we've 0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:26.080 moved the calendar into June. We are here live at 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:29.680 Rock and Riley's Studio thirty four in Midtown Manhattan. We 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:32.239 have a little bit of party going on tonight, maybe 0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:35.240 people getting ready for NBA Finals Game one, that seems 0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:37.800 to be the big story out there right now. But 0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:40.240 I gotta give you what you need to win that 0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:43.360 cash in Major League baseball, Okay, news and notes. First 0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:45.840 of all, Justin Upton, let's left last night's game with 0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:49.120 quad strain running to third base. They call him day 0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:53.200 to day. Remember with these muscles, um, you don't want 0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:56.760 to rush back to quickly because you can see, like 0:03:56.880 --> 0:03:59.320 remember case in point yo when its cespitous and then 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:01.360 he's now missed a month. Okay, And I say that 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:06.000 because interestingly enough, gen Carlo Stanton is back in the 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:08.280 Marlins lineups, and I remember he was day to day 0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:11.520 with that hamstring. I wonder if he's coming back too soon. 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:13.240 If you need to know, you should go over to 0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:15.840 Injury Advisors dot Com. That's why people that will definitely 0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:17.640 give you what you need in terms of all of 0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:20.320 the injuries going on in Major League Baseball. Also, you 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:21.840 see something new every day. I don't know if you 0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:23.880 guys saw this, but earlier today in the Mets game, 0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:29.039 there was a interesting play where Terry Collins ultimately got ejected. Okay, 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:31.320 and what happened was there was a foul pop up right, 0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:34.520 and woman Floras was coming and was in position to 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:36.760 make a catch. The ball boy was trying to get 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:40.520 out of the way, bumped into Flora's bumped into the 0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:42.520 like the ball in his hand as he was trying 0:04:42.520 --> 0:04:45.359 to catch it. He wound up dropping a ball. At first, 0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:48.120 they called ball boy interference and called the batter out. 0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:52.919 Then they cuddled the changed their call ultimately to the 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:56.080 correct call in the rule book, and um even though 0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:59.760 the ball boy interfered, the fact that woman for his 0:04:59.800 --> 0:05:02.320 d op the ball means that he was still allowed 0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:04.440 to continue his ad bat. It was very interesting, and 0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:07.280 Terry Collins did, in fact get ejected, Like I said, Man, 0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:09.680 you keep watching this sport every day, day in and 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:12.640 day out, you're going to see something new every day 0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:16.520 that you have not seen before. That's certainly fit that bill. Also, 0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:19.800 earlier today, the Indians activated Corey Kluber to come back 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:22.200 and start against the A's. He went six innings and 0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:25.599 his return six scoreless innings and he struck out ten. 0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:28.240 I think that's very important to note. Here's the other 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:29.839 thing that's interesting to note when it comes to the 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:33.000 arms of the Cleveland Indians. Danny Salazar, I told you 0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:36.760 um last week, is moving to the bullpen for Cleveland. 0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:40.000 He was in in the ninth inning in relief of 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:43.120 an eight nothing game. They're trying to repurpose Danny Salazar. 0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:47.120 I have been long a fan of Tito Francona and 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:49.800 the way he is using his bullpen. Remember last year 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.479 in the playoffs, using using Andrew Miller in the high 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:55.880 leverage situations for one, maybe two innings if need be. 0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:58.200 Imagine if they go to October this year and they 0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:01.080 still have Cody Allen at the back again and Andrew Miller, 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:03.360 and they add a guy like Salazar to pitch the 0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:06.760 seventh and elongate that dominant bulpen. I think that's something 0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:10.320 you want to keep your eye on. Okay, let's talk 0:06:10.360 --> 0:06:13.000 about last night. Okay, last night I told you that 0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:15.240 I who's gonna fade Max Sherzer because I didn't know 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:18.240 about the bad blood out there in San Francisco. And 0:06:18.279 --> 0:06:21.000 I told you that Jacob deGrom was the other way 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:24.160 that I was going. Listen. I was wrong, all right, 0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:27.080 I was wrong. Uh Sarsa had an incredible game with 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:29.880 a complete game, came upon me one run and struck 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:33.039 out eleven Jacob de Gramma, on the other hand, only 0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:36.040 one four gave up seven runs. But here's the lesson 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:38.479 to be learned. A lesson to be learned is about 0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:41.760 accountability and the way you react, the way you react 0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:44.360 to hardship. Okay, because I'm over here the next day 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:46.440 telling you I got it wrong, and what are other 0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:48.679 people in that building doing? Look at what Mr met 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:50.880 was doing. Of course you've seen it by now. There 0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:53.080 have been pictures that have surfaced of him flipping off 0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:57.120 a fan. That's no way for a mascot to act. 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.520 But what it really is, it is just the next 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:03.039 thing and I long series of crazy things that have 0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:07.000 happened to the Mets this year, between the Matt Harvey suspension, 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:11.120 between the Synderguard m R I and the cespitous injury. 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:15.000 Just another incident. And what is a year to forget 0:07:15.480 --> 0:07:19.040 for the New York Metropolitans. I did, however, yesterday told 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:21.840 you about James Paxton as well. He threw five and 0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:24.920 a third scoreless innings in his return, getting you the 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:29.200 win as the Mariners won four nothing. Listen, tonight is 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:33.360 a very very uh slim slate, shall we say, my 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:36.560 man Toni Senkata used the word spelt to describe the 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:38.840 action in Major League Baseball today, and I agree. There 0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:43.200 are only four games on the slate today, so if 0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:46.040 you're gonna go in cash games, I think it's obvious. 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:48.600 I think the chalk play is Zack Grinky. He's at 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:52.600 ten thousand, four hundred at the Marlins. Listen, the Marlins 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:56.960 actually have the least walks in the entire National League, 0:07:57.000 --> 0:07:59.400 with only a hundred and forty three on the season. 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:01.440 So the question is will they be able to string 0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:04.440 hits together off the good stuff of Zach Grinky to 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:06.800 form any rallies and score and he runs. I don't 0:08:06.800 --> 0:08:08.800 think so. I think that's the reason that this is 0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:11.320 the lowest total on the board tonight. The over under 0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:15.800 for this Diamondbacks Marlins game is eight runs in total. Also, 0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:18.640 it's with Grenky. You're getting a decent park shift going 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.720 from Arizona, which is more of a ballpark. This start 0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:24.440 is on the road at Miami, more of a pictures ballpark. 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:27.080 I like that. He's also facing Jeff Lock. You may 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:29.760 remember him in years past on the Pittsburgh Pirates. He's 0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:32.439 now on the Marlins and he is making his season debut. 0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:35.640 I actually think this is an opportunity at Righty's could 0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:39.000 stack you can stack up some diamondback rides against Jeff Lock. 0:08:39.360 --> 0:08:42.439 That's also what Benny Riccardi thought back there in last 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:45.199 hour here on the Fantasy Sports Network on the DFS 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:48.680 Lineup Lock Show. But as I mentioned, we are turning 0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:50.640 to June, so I want to, um, you know, look 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:52.840 back and close out the month of May and tell 0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:55.640 you who my diamonds in the rough war for the 0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:58.960 month of May. And you know what's interesting, I was 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:02.240 giving you a lot of these hitters if you listen 0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:04.960 to the Fantasy Freestyle and a regular basis, and you know, 0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:07.000 you can listen to us live you know here on 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:10.480 the Fantasy Sports Radio Network on the Sports Byline affiliates 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:13.360 on the American Forces Radio Network. But you could also 0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:15.880 get it on demand, okay, on that Fantasy Sports Radio 0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:19.920 Network app. Or you could just subscribe on iTunes, on 0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:22.560 I Heart Radio anywhere you get your podcast. This way, 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:24.600 you set it and forget it and speeds will give 0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:26.520 you what you need to win your leagues and win 0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:30.080 that cash. But if you are listening, if you are subscribed, right, 0:09:30.360 --> 0:09:32.559 you heard me talk about this, Okay, Mike Trout was 0:09:32.600 --> 0:09:35.640 a number one batter in all of May. Okay, eighteen 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:37.880 run eighteen rabby, he's hitting nine home runs with a 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.440 one point to eight one. Ope, yes, but we know 0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:43.199 about that right. He's owned in every league. Hopefully he 0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:45.959 will return from that thumb injury and be just fine. 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:49.960 But here are some guys that maybe available, and interestingly enough, 0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:53.320 I talked about many of them first. Justin Bore on 0:09:53.360 --> 0:09:57.840 the Marlins was rated third overall in Fantasy Baseball this month. 0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:00.760 I told you about having him as a tential replacement 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:04.200 for Freddie Freeman. He's still only sixty three percent owned 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:07.560 after hitting eleven home runs in the month of May 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:11.120 with twenty one ribbies I gave you Justin Bore weeks ago. 0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:15.160 Also consider Brett Gardner. Brett Gardner is fifth on the 0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:18.160 player raider for this month. He is only seventy three 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:20.600 percent owned. That means right now, if y'all are at 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:23.679 the bar at happy hour, or if your car pooling 0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:26.199 on the West Coast listening live on the I five 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:29.120 on the way home, stuck in traffic, if you're with 0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:31.840 three of your friends, one of you was in Illeague, 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:34.200 where you can get Brett Gardner. He was the fifth 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:37.000 best player in the month of May. Also a little 0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:41.120 bit further down though, having incredible May and fifteen on 0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:44.080 the offensive player Raider, where guys I told you about 0:10:44.360 --> 0:10:48.280 Logan Morrison only thirty six percent owned ten homers and 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:51.520 twenty two ribbies. This month I told you about Lomo. 0:10:51.840 --> 0:10:55.840 He's still only thirty owned. Remember when I gave you 0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:59.840 these first base replacements for Freddie Freeman a few weeks back, 0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:02.720 I gave you justin Board. Another guy gave you in 0:11:02.840 --> 0:11:06.640 that episode was justin Smoke of the Seattle Mariners. He 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:10.320 is only fifty four percent owned, coming off of May 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:14.280 where he scored twenty one runs, knocked in twenty two runs, 0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:17.560 and hit eight home runs. Another guy I'll give you 0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:21.600 only fifty three percent owned. Another first baseman. We have 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:24.360 been talking about him when it comes to launch, angle 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:27.959 and fly ball, and that is Yonder. Alonso. Yonder hit 0:11:28.040 --> 0:11:30.040 ten home runs in the month of May, is only 0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:33.560 fifty three percent owned. If you are struggling at first base, 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:36.560 one of these guys is available for you. Go to 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:40.400 your waive of wire right now and pick them up 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:44.800 on the flip side. When we talk about pictures, number 0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:46.880 one picture of the month of May was Max Scherzer. 0:11:46.960 --> 0:11:49.640 He had sixty strikeouts in forty three and two thirds 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:52.280 hittings pitched. All that was getting five quality starts with 0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:55.400 a whip of zero point eight. To let me tell you, though, 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:57.560 if you listen to this show, you know about my 0:11:57.679 --> 0:12:00.840 guy on the Arizona Diamondbacks, rob E. Ray. I've been 0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:03.280 talking about Robbie Ray all of his starts. Robbie Ray 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:06.280 was fourth best starting pitcher in the month of May. 0:12:06.600 --> 0:12:10.560 He had had forty five strikeouts in thirty eight innings 0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:13.800 zero point nine one whip. Maybe available, though, was a 0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:16.680 guy I told you about last week, Zack Godly. Zack 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:21.280 Godly only owns still in Yahoo leagues, had five quality 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:25.440 starts and a whip just over one.

Well, in 0:13:38.440 --> 0:13:40.400 the top of the first the New York Yankees have 0:13:40.440 --> 0:13:44.440 scored four runs in Toronto, Brett Gardner leading off the 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:47.120 game with a double, coming around to score as the 0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:50.320 Yankees put up four in them first in the battle 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:53.280 of a l East teams in Toronto against the Blue Jays. 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:56.720 Like I say, guys, you gotta listen to your boy Speeds, 0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:59.440 the spitting statistician.

For example, 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:07.200 let me give you some news and notes around the NFL. 0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:10.360 Just today during O T a S. The Indianapolis Colts 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:13.960 have signed running back Kristen Michael. This guy has been 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:17.200 a fantasy darling for years, whether it's in Seattle or 0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:20.480 Green Bay. Everybody is willing to take a chance on 0:15:20.520 --> 0:15:23.440 this guy because of his athleticism. However, he has never 0:15:23.520 --> 0:15:26.040 truly delivered. We'll see if he could latch on there, 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:28.920 maybe had a role backing up Frank Gore there. Also, 0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:30.960 remember I tell you at O t A S, what 0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:33.080 do we get the greatest shape of his life? Kind 0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:37.240 of stories right Well, Washington running back Rob Kelly, who 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:40.680 last year was affectionately known as Fat Rob Kelly has 0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:44.680 trimmed his body fat from eighteen tot percent and they 0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:48.840 are saying he is more explosive. Like I said, greatest 0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:51.480 shape of his life. Maybe he's hearing about the threat 0:15:51.480 --> 0:15:54.840 from Somagi p Rhyan, the rookie running back out of Oklahoma, 0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:57.760 and he's you know, taking it seriously want to hold 0:15:57.800 --> 0:16:01.840 onto his job. Another greatest of his life story Seahawks 0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:05.840 quarterback Russell Wilson, who I call dangerous. They say he 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:08.520 feels a dent. He's ready to kind of scramble and 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.960 move around again. Everybody was saying that he was off, 0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:13.240 had a bad year. He's still wound up being a 0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:17.800 pretty decent fantasy quarterback. So Russell Wilson feeling good. However, 0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:20.880 you sometimes get stories that are the opposite of the 0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:22.920 greatest shape of his life stories, and those are the 0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:26.680 ones you gotta worry about. For example, Carlos Hide in 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:29.960 San Francisco. They're saying he looks slow and o t s. 0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:32.240 They're saying he's also looks a little confused with the 0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:35.440 scheme they're now running in Kyle Shanahan's new offense. And 0:16:35.440 --> 0:16:37.800 I'm gonna tell you something. This is the rule of 0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:41.120 thumb from your boy Speeds, the spitting statistician. If there's 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:44.240 a kind of like backfield by committee in the NFL 0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:49.120 or positional battles, stuff like that, always favor the pick 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:52.280 of the new regime. Remember, the San Francisco forty nine 0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:54.680 is have a new head coach in Kyle Shanahan and 0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:59.320 a new GM in John Lynch. They also traded up 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:01.640 in the fourth round to get a running back out 0:17:01.640 --> 0:17:05.159 of Utah, Joe Williams. I've heard things about him at camp. 0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:08.400 His four point four one times was good. He had 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:11.960 some baggage. Okay, he transferred even like retired in college. 0:17:12.040 --> 0:17:15.760 But Kyle Shanahan wanted this guy. They traded up to 0:17:15.880 --> 0:17:19.920 get him. That to me spells trouble for Carlos Hide 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:22.879 in San Francisco. We also have a trade in the NFL, 0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:25.000 and we don't usually get trades in the NFL. But 0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:27.760 the New York j eats he as Jets Jets. Jets 0:17:27.880 --> 0:17:31.639 have traded their safety Calvin Prior to the Browns for 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:36.000 a former Jet linebacker, de Mario davis. Um. They're thinking 0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:39.440 Prior could start out there in a safety role with 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:42.040 Julius Peppers, who was drafted out of Michigan. But the 0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:46.000 thing is, remember the Jets drafted safeties with their first 0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:48.840 and second round pick. They were looking for that flexibility. 0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:52.960 Prior was really a quote unquote strong safety, a box safety. 0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:56.120 His nickname at school in college was the Louisville Slugger, 0:17:56.600 --> 0:17:58.960 you know, so um he had that role and it 0:17:59.000 --> 0:18:01.359 looks like Todd Bowles is looking for more playmaking and 0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:05.320 more flexibility out of his safety. So there's your news 0:18:05.320 --> 0:18:07.600 and notes from the NFL. I think it's time we 0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:11.520 get into this NBA Finals with my man, the night 0:18:11.560 --> 0:18:15.280 Owl JP, holding us down here all summer long for 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:18.200 the Fantasy Sports Radio Network JP. I want to talk 0:18:18.200 --> 0:18:20.240 a little bit for NBA Finals with you. The first 0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:27.280 things first, okay, UM, Donnie Burns picked Calves in six 0:18:27.520 --> 0:18:31.160 as his NBA prediction. Can I get you on the record, 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:33.600 night Owl? I want to get your prediction. We're gonna 0:18:33.600 --> 0:18:36.000 go my prediction. Then we're gonna talk get your insight. 0:18:36.080 --> 0:18:37.680 A couple of questions I have here going into the 0:18:37.800 --> 0:18:40.399 NBA Finals. Can I first let's cut right down to 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:44.960 brass tacks. What is your prediction for the NBA Finals. 0:18:45.240 --> 0:18:48.119 I believe the Warriors take it in six games and 0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:53.040 Warriors in six. How interesting that that is your pick? JP? 0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:55.760 Because listen right now, we got that pole question. Remember 0:18:55.840 --> 0:18:58.760 up on the f n T s Y Twitter UM handle. 0:18:59.000 --> 0:19:02.000 Also you can always follow me out on Twitter at 0:19:02.040 --> 0:19:04.600 Spitting Speeds. I got that pole question up right now. 0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:09.320 Check this out, jpent have Warriors in four or five? 0:19:11.760 --> 0:19:14.720 Have what you say Warriors in six or seven. Now, 0:19:15.080 --> 0:19:19.040 I didn't major in math in college, but if I 0:19:19.080 --> 0:19:24.680 took eight percent, and what would that equal, JP? That 0:19:24.680 --> 0:19:29.119 would equal? So right now, fifty percent of the people 0:19:29.160 --> 0:19:32.760 are ultimately picking the Warriors, And that means fifty percent 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:36.240 of the people are ultimately picking the Calves. Four percent 0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:39.639 saying four or five games, thirty six percent say in 0:19:39.760 --> 0:19:42.240 six or seven games. And I gotta tell you, night Owl, 0:19:43.000 --> 0:19:45.159 I'm going solidarity with you. I think it is the 0:19:45.160 --> 0:19:49.280 Golden State Warriors in six games. I think they are 0:19:49.320 --> 0:19:54.240 going to win the championship on the floor of Cleveland, 0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:58.320 returning the favor. Because there is bad blood in this series. 0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:02.240 This trilogy is de finitely become you know, some shots fired, 0:20:02.400 --> 0:20:05.520 some some smack talk back and forth. I gotta tell 0:20:05.520 --> 0:20:09.520 you though tonight's game, there's some places to win some cash. 0:20:10.119 --> 0:20:14.399 The over under on tonight's game is a historic high. 0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:17.320 It is sitting right now at two hundred and twenty 0:20:17.440 --> 0:20:19.920 six for an over under. And JP check this out 0:20:20.560 --> 0:20:23.520 Game seven of the NBA Finals last year, same two 0:20:23.560 --> 0:20:27.040 teams had an over under of like two hundred and four. 0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:31.159 It is twenty points higher than even Game seven with 0:20:31.280 --> 0:20:35.199 these two teams this is ridiculous. In my opinion, I 0:20:35.359 --> 0:20:38.280 say take the under in this game. In Game one, 0:20:38.400 --> 0:20:40.879 especially in the first half, I could see these teams 0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:43.760 kind of feeling each other out. And I don't think 0:20:44.000 --> 0:20:47.440 the Vaguas number right now takes into consideration the fact 0:20:47.520 --> 0:20:52.119 that the Warriors defense is actually incredible and smart on 0:20:52.280 --> 0:20:55.720 rotations things of that nature. I like the under in 0:20:55.800 --> 0:20:58.520 this game. I'm fading the public on this one, JP, 0:20:58.720 --> 0:21:00.680 what say you? I definitely have to go with the 0:21:00.720 --> 0:21:02.400 under there too. I think a lot of that comes 0:21:02.400 --> 0:21:04.720 from the BPI numbers that they're using that predict the 0:21:04.760 --> 0:21:09.200 finals in Vegas, which is towards the Warriors. And I 0:21:09.240 --> 0:21:11.200 think they're taking the regular season way too much into 0:21:11.200 --> 0:21:13.360 account when it comes to these numbers. Sure, I mean 0:21:13.400 --> 0:21:15.800 they faced each other, remember on Christmas Day, I think 0:21:15.800 --> 0:21:18.359 the Latin the regular season, both times they played each other, 0:21:18.440 --> 0:21:20.520
