00:00I want to throw something out there on Cleveland,

00:02why I think I'm so impressed with what they're doing.

00:05So the number two offensive rating so far in the playoffs,

00:08yes, a super, super small sample size,

00:12is Oklahoma City at 120 flat.

00:16The worst offensive rating belongs to Memphis, 94.9.

00:22That's a 15.1 gap.

00:25The gap between OKC as the second offense

00:30and Cleveland at number one is 16.1.

00:35The Cavs offensive rating through two playoff games

00:37where JY began our show correctly talking about

00:40how it looks like the 90s again and nobody can score

00:42is 136.1, Jay.

00:47136.1 against Eric Spalstra's Miami Heat in the playoffs.

00:53I find it to be super impressive.

00:55With all of that said, what are you betting

00:58in game number three in South Beach?

00:59I'm taking Miami plus points.

01:01Yeah, I got you.

01:01Because going into this series, I said that Miami was going to get one.

01:05I said Miami was going to get one.

01:07I said that Orlando was going to get one.

01:10Well, one of my Florida teams got their one.

01:12So now I'm thinking it could be this.

01:14This is where you're going to get the A-plus effort by Miami.

01:16I'm looking at that ending of game number two

01:19and how they were down big and they made that run in the fourth quarter.

01:23I think they keep it within that number.

01:25Now, the money is moving towards, you know, obviously Cleveland

01:30with it being six and a half, five and a half.

01:31So I do think they covered a spread.

01:33You're going to get a really good effort out of Miami Heat team,

01:36a prideful team, a team that I don't think they're going to get swept.

01:40But if they're not going to get swept, you've got to get game three

01:44because then you start questioning yourself in game number four.

01:46I do lean towards Cleveland in this game,

01:48but I really do like the Bam Adebayo prop tonight.

01:5119 and a half to get to 20.

01:52He did that in game number one, despite not shooting it super efficiently,

01:5610 of 22.

01:58But game number two's performance, three of nine, 33%,

02:03but only nine attempts in 42 minutes.

02:06Bam Adebayo cannot let that happen again.

02:08It's a tough matchup with Mobley and Jared Allen.

02:11He needs to be significantly more aggressive going back home.

02:13I think that will be the case.
