00:03She's talking about astonishment here.

00:04Eric Spolster forgetting how many timeouts are on the clock.

00:07They lose to the Detroit Pistons in cup play yesterday,

00:09123 to 121.

00:11Wasn't Tyler Hero's fault.

00:1342 minutes, 10 of 17 from three point range.

00:16Also chipped in with five rebounds and eight assists

00:19along with four steals yesterday in 40 points.

00:23And they still lost to the Pistons.

00:26Air it out my guy, Tyler Hero over there.

00:29In the Motor City, good win here for the Pistons.

00:32123 to 121 needed overtime to do it,

00:35but they got a bit of good fortune.

00:37We highlighted off the top of the show,

00:39Eric Spolster considered being one of the best minds

00:42in the business there for the Heat.

00:43They had what, 1.6 seconds left on the clock in overtime.

00:47Thought he had a timeout, went to call it,

00:49had no timeouts left, discharged with a technical.

00:53It sends the Pistons to the line.

00:54They also get possession after that.

00:56So this is one of the biggest coaching wonders

00:58we've seen for, I guess, a new year in the association,

01:02Donnie, and didn't think it was going to be Spol

01:04who would come up with such a, I guess,

01:06bonehead of move late in this one.

01:08But not a good evening there for the Miami Heat,

01:11for the Detroit Pistons.

01:12This is a good pickup for them,

01:14sitting at five and seven for the season.

01:16Looking at some of the key takeaways,

01:19they're getting the bench involved.

01:20They're getting plenty of points, you know,

01:22from some of the utility guys, Stewart, Beasley.

01:24They were pretty strong there in keeping them in the mix.

01:26And Detroit have looked a lot better from last season.

01:29So maybe they're building something

01:31up there in Pistons' country.

01:34You know what they're building now?

01:35Milwaukee, a statue to Giannis,

01:37because they got their third win of the season,

01:39three and eight, knocking off the Raptors,

01:40who dropped themselves to two and 10.

01:42Other games out there yesterday,

01:43the Suns, 120, beating the Jazz, 112.

01:46And also the Timberwolves late night,

01:48122 to 108 over the Timberwolves.

01:49Now we do have new odds here

01:51at the FanBlue Sportsbook, Dubzy, to win the NBA Cup.

01:54Now you'd be a fool to listen to me

01:56and say, who's going to win this, Dubzy?

01:57Like, equate it to this.

01:59You go to Las Vegas, you walk around,

02:00you see the people on the street corners

02:02playing that game where it's like the ball,

02:03you hide it in the cup, switch it around.

02:04Hey, which cup is it in?

02:06One, two, or three?

02:07That feels like me right now,

02:08trying to bet and handicap and explain the NBA Cup.

02:11But today, the Knicks, plus 650.

02:13The Celtics, who were the favorites, at plus 400.

02:15After the loss yesterday,

02:16they dropped to an eight to one price.

02:18Cavs, Warriors, Thunder, Nuggets.

02:19Dubzy, do you even approach the betting odds here?

02:22And if you do, who are you going with?

02:25It's a tough one.

02:26And you've really got to know the groups

02:28that your team's coming out of.

02:29They're random, they're just thrown together.

02:31So make sure you're not betting on two sides

02:33who could possibly take each other out.

02:35The things I'm looking for, Donnie,

02:36the glue guys, the young guys,

02:38the teams who have got a bit of depth

02:39and obviously not dealing with too many injuries

02:42at this point of the season.

02:44Plus 650 for the Knicks, I get it.

02:46The Celtics, eight to one.

02:48But I'm looking towards the teams

02:49where maybe there's a bit of extra juice on the line.

02:52I like the look of the Phoenix Suns coming out of group B

02:54at a monster price.

02:56They're going to have to get through the Spurs,

02:58the Lakers, OKC.

03:00But I think the winner is coming out of this group.

03:02They've got off to a hot start there

03:03and they're playing some really good basketball

03:05at where we currently stand a couple of weeks here.

03:07The NBA Cup, absolutely excited

03:10to have this back in the mix, Donnie.
