00:00We'll start with the rocket, where Cleveland will take on the lowly miserable Wizards in

00:12Cleveland tonight.

00:14And you see the numbers there, look at that gigantic number you got to lay against the

00:18Wizards.

00:19Are you willing to go there?

00:20That is enormous.

00:21I'm not.

00:22I'm not either.

00:23They'll probably win by 18, right around the number 16.

00:27No, good number by the books.

00:28I'm going to stay away from this game, Scotty.

00:31Probably the over.

00:32Not a lot of defense in this game.

00:33I mean, honestly, it's, I see it even up to 17 and a half.

00:36I know the Wizards stink, but if a couple of guys, you know, get hot and hit some shots,

00:43that's just so much wood to deal with.

00:45Indy is at Philly, while you talk about stink, the stench of the Sixers, they're laying six

00:52and a half.

00:53But I got to tell you, Indy has been a massive disappointment this year after their run to

00:59the Eastern Finals last year.

01:01Good call, Scotty.

01:02I think the Pacers are probably going to be one of the biggest public dogs tonight.

01:05I would actually lean to Philadelphia, as crazy as that sounds, and be the last few

01:10games to over the point total.

01:12These numbers are sharp with props.

01:13I think it's 27 and a half or on one book with juice or 28 and a half.

01:17I think he goes over that number tonight.

01:19I like Philly by about 12 in this game.

01:22The Lakers are at the target in Minneapolis.

01:25The legendary old Minneapolis Lakers, of course, now in Lipstick City playing.

01:31They were playing terrible, but not anymore.

01:34They're above 500 now.

01:36They're laying eight and a half, two 13 and a half, and no LeBron with foot soreness.

01:42He will not play in this game tonight.

01:45What do you think, Scotty?

01:46Were you willing to lay it down on the Timberwolves to cover that big number?

01:50I'm looking at it going, maybe.

01:52I hate taking favorites, but I just don't feel confident with the Lakers.

01:55Who do you like in that game?

01:56I like the T-Wolves tonight, to be honest with you.

01:59The way they've been playing, they're at home.

02:01No LeBron.

02:02I think, obviously, Gobert's going to have to come up big against Davis, but I think

02:07that without LeBron, they're a different team.

02:10I think the T-Wolves, the way they played over the last three weeks, they have to take

02:14advantage of it.

02:15You're right.

02:16It's a good call by you.

02:17It's a big number for a reason, but Eileen, Minnesota as well.

02:21Here's a game that you would think that Memphis at home, the way they have looked, they're

02:2717-8.

02:28They're fantastic.

02:29I think they may very well whack the Nets tonight off Beale Street.

02:33I know the number's huge at 9.5.

02:35I actually think they can handle it.

02:38You know what?

02:39They could.

02:40I got to give Brooklyn credit, though.

02:41For a bad team, they cover a lot of numbers, fourth best in the NBA, but Memphis is third,

02:46Scotty.

02:47We have two great ATS teams battling against each other.

02:50Memphis should roll.

02:51John Morant, too, his prop for a star, 21-1, he had one bad game.

02:56Other than that, the guy's hitting like 28, 30, whatever.

02:58He should go over his number tonight.

03:00Eileen, Memphis as well.

03:02The Bulls are at home on the west side of Chicago, laying 6.5 to the Hornets.

03:06They got injuries out to Ying.

03:08Can Chicago handle that relatively small piece tonight at the United Center of 6.5?

03:16Yeah, I don't know.

03:17I don't have faith in the Bulls covering that number.

03:19I might take a shot with the Charlottes, but that's a recipe for disaster.

03:22So I have a lean to the dog in that game.

03:24I think it's going to be right around the number.

03:26I mean, they're 10 games under .500, and when Manolo doesn't play, they really stink.

03:31Let's just get real here.

03:33You got a good one, Clippers and Nuggets.

03:35I actually think, I mean, the Clippers have surprised me.

03:38They're 14-11.

03:39I think Denver's been so average, it's not even funny.

03:42They're laying 6.5 tonight at the ball arena.

03:45I'm willing to take a stab with Harden and the Clippers with those points on the road.

03:50Agreed, Scotty.

03:51I think Denver is one of the teams we play against until they get it right.

03:54They haven't looked good at all.

03:55Not good at all.

03:56I'm telling you, I like the Clippers.

03:57I think they could actually win this game, so I will take the points.

04:01Suns and Jazz and Salt Lake Shakers at the Delta.

04:04Phoenix is laying 6.5.

04:06The Jazz are awful at 5-18.

04:09Could this be the sucker play tonight?

04:12To go with the Jazz at home and the number?

04:16I'm going to tell you, Scott, I do a lot of stupid things.

04:18As you say, hey, I'm Cam Stewart.

04:19I bet on Carolina and Tennessee, but I'm telling you, I like the Jazz tonight.

04:23This is the hook, line, and sinker game of the night.

04:26People are going to line up to take the Suns.

04:27I'm on the Jazz.

04:28I do a lot of stupid things, but I think it's a good spot for the Jazz tonight.

04:31Give me the dog.
