00:00As we go back to the nba seven game slate on this tuesday

00:04We head now to dallas the mavericks a home underdog catching three and a half points against the denver nuggets total stands at

00:13233 I believe a question of availability

00:17Will be how this game is played out. Nikola. Jokic has a points prop. He is out there for denver

00:25Still no luka donchik for the mavs

00:27But kairi irving set to be in the lineup tonight 23 and a hook the number on kairi joe

00:33How do you see this game playing out tonight between the mavs and the nuggets?

00:38Well, I mean, let's face it denver is uh,

00:41What seven of the last nine I think they've won. This is the second game against dallas

00:48Uh, and they had no problem, uh handling business last time out

00:52But again, it's all a matter of the injuries with dallas. They've lost six of their last eight

00:57And no donchik, but they haven't had kairi. It's been

01:02It's been rough sledding. It really really has here the idea that they're getting kairi back here tonight

01:07I think is great, but let's not forget denver

01:11Missing a pretty big piece for them as well as aaron

01:15As uh, aaron gordon had been out forever and that's a different team without him on the court

01:21And it does appear, uh ben that um, he'll be back again

01:25He missed nine games there, but he was in that game on sunday had 13.6. Uh,

01:31Uh and six boards. I I think he's a big part of denver. I think

01:36Kairi is not going to be enough for me to sway it to try to take dallas to get even here

01:41I think denver, uh, if it ain't broke don't fix it. I ain't getting in front of that train right now
