00:00The San Antonio Spurs also making their season debut on this Thursday night in the Lone Star

00:10State Showdown in Texas.

00:12The Mavs and the Spurs face off in Dallas.

00:15Dallas booked as an eight-point home favorite, total 229 and a half.

00:21Dougie, that feels correct, right?

00:23Dallas was the Western Conference champ a year ago with a much brighter outlook.

00:27San Antonio won just 22 games in Victor Wemba Nyama's rookie season.

00:32It should be an eight-point spread, but in my estimation, if Wemba is going to contend

00:37for an MVP and San Antonio might even flirt with a playoff berth, they keep it within

00:43the number tonight.

00:44Yeah, maybe a lot of three-point shots, too.

00:46You don't want to go down in the paint because that guy's going to be able to come out of

00:48nowhere and block your shot.

00:50So if I'm looking at this game optimistically, let the three-pointers reign from Luka Doncic,

00:54Kyrie Irving, and Klay Thompson as we start the Klay era now for the Dallas Mavericks.

00:59But for me, if I want to take a real shot in this game, it's not the eight-and-a-half,

01:02it's not the 229 and a half, it's getting the season started off on the right foot.

01:06That's Luka Doncic on his way to a possible MVP.

01:09Give me the triple-double tonight that I think is priced around that plus-260, plus-270 number

01:14where it was this morning on the Fans World Sportsbook.

01:17Luka with a big night tonight.

01:18Ten boards, ten rebounds, ten assists or more?

01:20Absolutely, Luka.

01:21Let's get it on.

01:24Let's get it on.
