00:00Hardwood handicaps around the Association on this Thursday, and maybe a Donnie right side best bet for college basketball on this Thursday

00:08Wow as well

00:09Let's start in the NBA Donnie a really good one in the Western Conference between two teams that are certainly on the come-up

00:1732 and 14 that's the mark for the Houston Rockets second best in the West

00:22third best in the Western Conference the 31 and 16

00:26Memphis Grizzlies we have talked about the Rockets a big week

00:30to

00:31238 could Houston pull off yet another upset or will the Grizz in the grind city be too much?

00:37I

00:38Think it is because you see that line opened up at four now sits at five other outlets also at five as well total of

00:43238 which is on the rise so we're expecting points here

00:46Which back in the day was like hey man Memphis used to if you got over a hundred points against Memphis

00:50It was a miracle. It's why they called it the grind house where you never had an easy time

00:54But now looks like offense a lot easier

00:56I'm just reading that line tonight because the Rockets we know is a good ballclub Memphis is as well

01:01I thought that should be lower, but the fact that that line rose from four to five now

01:05I'm gonna take it and I'll lay the five points currently live with the Memphis Grizzlies handling their business against the Rockets

01:11Read that line right Memphis booked as a favorite one of the best in the NBA

01:1621 in 10 against the spread this you the Grizz overall are

01:2131 and

01:2316 in their record they are also 31 and 16 against the number this season Houston a great

01:30underdog as we shared entering that matchup inside TD Garden on

01:35Monday they have a winning record. They are above

01:39500

01:40Outright as an underdog this season all things to pay attention to and they have one for straight

01:47But that line is really giving you the Grizzlies in terms of its confirmation Donnie three teams this year have played 30 or more games

01:56To the over this season Memphis being one Denver another the most overs in the NBA

02:02Now the best record once again in the Association that would be the Cleveland Cavaliers

02:0731 of 47 games for the Cavs over this year

02:1147 games in total

02:12138 outright wins for the Cavs and a double-digit home favorite tonight

02:18Against the Atlanta Hawks second leg of a back-to-back dough for Cleveland and a change of destination

02:23They were on the road in Miami last night. Now, they're back home in the land

02:28That's the tough part about it. If this wasn't this line is probably twelve and a half thirteen and a half

02:32So there's your discount on that, but I still do think Cleveland is ten points better than the Atlanta Hawks

02:36This comes just a few days ago. We were picking the Atlanta Hawks getting points coming into town from the Houston Rockets

02:41That was a home game. This is a road game two different scenarios two different teams two different cities two different appearances here

02:47And what we think is going to happen once we get to the Eastern Conference playoffs. I'll take the Cleveland Cavaliers

02:52That's a double-digit victory at home for me for them even on the back-to-back

02:56Yeah, I would think so as well

02:58And if it's going to be the case the Atlanta Hawks also playing a ton of their games to the over and over

03:03Percentage north of 60 percent. I'll look at some points being scored tonight in Cleveland five game NBA

03:10slate tonight around the

03:12Association next game up in the nation's capital the Washington Wizards only an eight and a half point home

03:18Underdog line working against the Wiz they're the worst team in the NBA

03:23But the Lakers who have been on this continuous road trip

03:26But they did get a day of rest in between

03:30Normally the ways have been catching double digits and basically every game they have played only eight and a half now

03:36Yeah, the Wiz are gonna get beat by double digits and you might say like God

03:39Did you see the way they played against Philadelphia talking about the Lakers and they lost Anthony Davis doesn't matter the Wizards are bad

03:44They're playing for the lottery at this point and the Lakers understand what it means to you must

03:48Capitalize on teams that aren't as good as you and win them to stack up those victories as opposed to the times that you're going

03:54To need Anthony Davis and need LeBron James down the stretch. This is a game

03:58I expect a full front effort here out of the Lakers. They get that job done double-digit victory for them

04:04Six in forty that is the record for the Wizards

04:07They are the only team in the NBA that is yet to win double-digit games. They have lost 15

04:14Consecutive they have been an underdog in all 46 of their games this year. They are 17 27 and 2

04:21Against the spread it is the Cooper flag sweepstakes trying to make as many ping-pong balls as you can bounce in your favor

04:29To get Cooper flag, but I'll tell you who's going number two overall

04:33That's ace Bailey from Rutgers last night

04:3637.6 boards three blocks on the road and a Rutgers outright win against

04:42Northwestern a historic year for the freshman in Piscataway even without his fellow freshman in Dylan Harper

04:49All right, maybe a Donnie right side college basketball best bet before he goes coming up because it's down
