00:00Why don't we start in Detroit, where the Pacers are coming off that trip to the Eastern Conference

00:08Finals last year.

00:09They are in to visit the Pistons.

00:12This might be, I know it's very rare that the Pistons actually have all their players

00:15healthy, but it is the first game of the season, so I guess anything's possible.

00:19Indiana minus five and a half on the road tonight with a 235 and a half total.

00:25Yeah, I'm sorry.

00:27I got a hard time believing that the Pistons are good, because they never are.

00:32The Pacers are a really good team.

00:34I'm going Pacers, and I don't need to know anything else.

00:39Don't need to know anything else indeed.

00:41The Brooklyn Nets begin their season, the quest for flag, right?

00:46Fail for flag is what it's all about for the Brooklyn Nets this season, and their roster

00:50reflects that.

00:52They will open in Atlanta against the Hawks.

00:55Hawks, of course, minus six and a half.

00:58223 and a half is the total down in Atlanta, GA.

01:04There's no such thing as a tank for players in the NBA.

01:08It's a crapshoot with ping pong balls in a tube.

01:13You have no chance of getting him, thinking if all we have to do is lose games.

01:19They want to be in the top three to get the highest chance to get him.

01:24Obviously, it's not the worst, but they want to have the most opportunity to be able to

01:30get Cooper Flag, and hope it goes their way.

01:33Well, there you go.

01:35So they start with a loss in Atlanta, and the Hawks will cover.

01:38I agree with you.

01:39I think they're going to get absolutely smashed.

01:42Battle of Florida to open up the season for the Magic and the Heat, down in Miami.

01:48Heat minus two and a half at home, 208 and a half the low total on opening night.

01:54My man, Hawkeyes, and company, and Jimmy Buckets getting involved.

02:00Take the Heat.

02:01Lay it.

02:02Lay it with the Heat.

02:04Why not?

02:05Next, the game we were talking about before, Milwaukee into Pharrell, Adelphia against

02:10the Sixers.

02:11No Embiid, no Paul George.

02:13They do have Maxey tonight.

02:15Minus three and a half for the Bucs.

02:17You have a healthy Giannis and a healthy Damian Lillard.

02:20I saw Lillard yesterday doing interviews.

02:24I'm going to be back this year.

02:27People sleeping on me.

02:28Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

02:30222 and a half is the total Bucs minus three and a half.

02:33There's nobody to stop Giannis in this game.

02:37There's absolutely no getting around it.

02:40He's going to do whatever he wants.

02:41There's no Embiid.

02:42Even Drummond is back up.

02:44He's so slow.

02:45Yes.

02:46Literally, he's a donkey.

02:47He's a mule.

02:48He's literally a mule.

02:51There is no way that Giannis isn't winning this game and going off.

02:55They're going to go off on him.

02:57There's no George, no Embiid, in my idea, no choice.

03:01You have to take the Bucs.

03:04Got to take the Bucs in this spot.

03:06And I actually think the numbers, I think it's a little short.

03:09I kind of expected no Embiid, no George.

03:11They'd be even a little bit more than three and a half in this spot.
