00:00We really got to start diving into the hoops both around the Association and in college

00:05Basketball if you're keeping track at home Donny's best play I believe last Thursday in college hoop

00:12St. Mary's laying ten and a half even laying a bad number the gales great in doing so no issue Donny

00:19Right side is going to be ready to go especially with his team totals in CBB

00:24But how about the NBA?

00:26Totaling up the number of games we have tonight. I think we got 12 around the Association good work

00:33Good work right there by the NBA to recognize the fall from football in being there on the day after

00:40After conference championship weekend and Donny one of the best games of the night at the home of the reigning champs

00:46Inside TD garden the Celtics six and a half point favorite against the Houston Rockets

00:52222 is that total Boston second best record around the Eastern Conference

00:58Houston second best record in a Western Conference a finals preview

01:04Again, I think is a little bit liberal with the use of that term

01:07But what are we expecting tonight in bean town?

01:09I

01:10Think we get a good game and you see that six and a half opened up here in New Jersey at FanDuel with that number

01:15And still sitting this morning at six and a happy interesting to see where that moves the total itself

01:19221 and a half as the opener now up to

01:22222 but if there's two ways you can look at this game

01:25Houston is ready for prime time or the Celtics understand the magnitude of this game like come on now

01:30You're actually looking at these guys as one of those contenders out in the West. Let's show them. What's up?

01:33We're at home on our home court. So theoretically say you know what?

01:36I think this is going to be a Boston win by double digits

01:38But for me, I look at that line and read it as that's a Houston Rockets line

01:42Well, I'm expecting them to come to town and say you know what we're gonna shake it up here

01:46Yeah, you want a championship, but let's announce our presence here by saying we're not afraid of you

01:50We're not gonna cow or lose by 15 points

01:52We're gonna play a Fred Van Vliet Jalen green

01:54I'm in Thompson Dylan Brooks and Alperin shangoon are expected to be in the starting lineup tonight

01:59I think they fight tonight bad

02:00Give me the six and a half for the upstart Houston Rockets in Boston to sort of have a measuring stick game for them

02:07How about that?

02:08The Houston Rockets have been great as a dog this year as well eight four and one

02:14Against this spread seven of those eight covers and outright victory

02:19So a seven and six straight up record for the Rockets as a dog Donny

02:23There is one team of 30 around the Association that has a winning record above 500

02:30Outright as it underdog this season. It's email doca and it's Houston Rockets

02:35They are 30 and 14 overall this year again second best win percentage in the Western Conference

02:42They have one fewer win than that of the Grizz but also one fewer loss

02:47So they're slightly in front of Memphis right now who is 31 and 15, of course still looking up at OKC

02:53By six and a half games Boston four and a half back of Cleveland

02:57The Cavs used to have the best record in the Association now that goes to Oklahoma City

03:03But how many games that I just mentioned 44 45 46 around the NBA?

03:08We're past the midway point all-star weekend is what three and a half weeks away in the Association

03:15We're really getting into the thick of it this NBA season, by the way, Boston 32 and 14 46 total games

03:22favorite in 44 of

03:2446 18 25 and 1 against the spread not overwhelming based on the expectation

03:30But of course still a great year a game. I was supposed to be at got postponed by a week

03:36I'll see those Rockets more than likely next Monday inside Madison Square Garden moving some scheduling things

03:42around with the Knicks and a big one in

03:45MSG tonight three and a half point home favorite 30 wins for the Knickerbockers now against that Grizz team that we mentioned 31 and 15

03:53and look at that total Ben open up at 239 and a half now sits at

03:56241 and a half for a Knicks game a Tom Thibodeau coach

03:59He had a 241 and a half that it's crazy at this point

04:02And then you take a look at the four and a half now down to three and a half as the line

04:06I do agree with that line move at Memphis is really talented. I'll say that line but out of principle

04:11I just got it. Come on Tibbs show up. Give me a Josh Hart 60-minute game. Let's play some defense

04:16Come on, keep it under 240 in that game. Come on now

04:19Those those boys from Nova were talking yesterday about the Eagles back and forth and Josh

04:25Making fun of Jalen Brunson who was making fun of him for leaving the game or the watch party early wherever

04:31They were and Josh Hart said one of us has to play defense tomorrow night back at home in the garden against the Grizz

04:37So yeah, keep an eye on that deep 240

04:41Tom Thibodeau for Tibbs

04:4440 and one and a half

04:46Now we can't believe it won't believe it not a part of it sons underdog at home against the Clippers is Jimmy Butler there yet

04:52in Phoenix

04:54By the way, no

04:55But it looks like the anticipated starting lineup does actually have Beal back in there with a showcase in Bradley

05:00That's of the rest of the NBA back in the starting lineup with the big three. My goodness. I

05:05Mean talk about a sign of the times the Cavaliers at home double-digit favorite against the Detroit Pistons if the season ended today

05:13Detroit's in the playoffs

05:1523 and 22 a game above 500 JV bigger staff is now the head coach of the Motor City

05:21If I'm not mistaken T Wolves at home double-digit favorite against the Atlanta Hawks is Jimmy Butler back for Miami

05:28Two games suspension over

05:30Priscilla

05:31John state battle

05:32I don't they let that guy back on the court again at this point now

05:36But I got two words for it and I've been you want those two words, please

05:38You want the two words like that? No, no Joe Lisi is one word you get that could be Joe Lisi two words

05:43You wear it tonight norm pal norm pal. I remember that words. Yeah

05:48How many times have you bet on Norm Powell this year? Is he your most frequent never lets you down in the Association?

05:54Never let you down. Yeah, and also by the way, you've seen it

05:57But like why Leonard's supposed to be that started on it with James Harden

05:59So that means the attention goes to those two guys norm pal with another three-point shot made. That's what we're hearing tonight in Phoenix

06:08How bad are things for the Washington Wizards the NBA's worst this year?

06:12they're a 12-point dog in Dallas and I don't see Luka Donchik listed the Wiz are six and

06:2038 they're the only team yet to reach double-digit wins around the Association

06:25I think they have been an underdog in every game this year. They are

06:301725 and two

06:32Against the spread. What is Norm Powell's number? Do you know or are you just gonna bet it regardless of what it is?

06:37I'm just gonna exactly I'm assuming it's gonna be around that two and a half number

06:40So three or three point shots or three more shots maids bang it down

06:45Let's go three spots three plus made threes for Norm Powell Donnie's guy minus

06:51145 I think that's Norman Powell celebration

06:55Yep, I will make it a celebration. That's for sure. This is one of those. Yes. You have fun on the money line

07:01Yep, are we working together tomorrow?

07:04Could be
