00:00The Rockets, who are 12-6 to start the year, playing some good basketball in Minnesota,

00:09who has really just kind of been through the motions through their first 16 games.

00:15They are 8-8.

00:16The T-Wolves, minus 3.5, 220.5 the total.

00:20I'm going to take the Rockets here.

00:21I think the T-Wolves are going through the motions.

00:24I don't really love the NBA card tonight in this NBA Cup, but Houston's a gritty team.

00:28I'll take the points with the Rockets.

00:30I think it'll be a very close game, and if I think it's going to be a tight game, I'll

00:32take the dog carver.

00:33I don't know how you feel about it, but Houston is a team I like to cheer for as well.

00:38I like the way they play.

00:40You know, you usually like a team maybe coming back off of a bad loss.

00:45You know, Houston lost to Portland last time out.

00:49You had the Timberwolves actually lost to Toronto and Boston on the road their last

00:54couple times out.

00:55So, tough spot for me, Cam.

00:58I kind of lean to the Minnesota side tonight at home.

01:02I think I'm going to go T-Wolves here against the Rockets, and I'll probably get burned

01:06on that aspect.

01:07I don't know if you're going to get burned.

01:08The Spurs.

01:09Yeah.

01:10Yeah.

01:11Who do you like, Cam?

01:12Yeah.

01:13The T-Wolves.

01:14The T-Wolves.

01:15It's Jekyll and Hyde so far.

01:16You're right.

01:17You have no idea what you're going to get night in, night out.

01:19So that's what worries me, Cam.

01:21Not the one I like the most tonight.

01:23Actually, the next one is the one that I like the most.

01:27The Spurs are two and a half point favorites in Utah against the Jazz.

01:31Two twenty-four and a half is the total.

01:35I like the Spurs tonight, believe it or not, Cam, and they've had some trouble with the

01:39Jazz in the past.

01:41In fact, last time they lost outright to them by one, but they also completely pummeled

01:46them the first time they played them this year.

01:49Last year, Wemba and Yama had some big games against them.

01:51I'm on the Spurs minus the two and a half in Utah.

01:54Carver, I don't like being against you because we're friends and I like enjoying the show,

01:58but I think Utah's the play tonight.

02:00And I know Empirical added to back it up.

02:02I think, you know what I mean?

02:03It's just one of those things that I think I'm going to take the points in the money

02:05line with the Utah Jazz.

02:07It's a pure vibe play.

02:09This game is going to come right down to the wire, though.

02:11It's not going to be...

02:12I like playing the Spurs when Wemba and Yama's actually playing.

02:16When Wemba and Yama's actually out there, I do like playing the Spurs.
