Transcript

00:00Welcome to the BetQL Daily Boost.

00:06I'm Lucy Burge of BetQL and I am joined by Matt Horner and Amir Tyree and we have an

00:11NBA odds boost for all of you today on Kevin Durant and Devin Booker to each have over

00:1624 and a half points boosted to plus 300 at Caesars.

00:21What do we think of this boost?

00:23Yeah, I mean, I don't mind it.

00:26So the Suns are facing the Lakers tonight.

00:30The Suns have lost five straight games.

00:33It looks like they're nine and seven.

00:34They've been a disaster lately.

00:37And in my book, I mean, right now they're favorite in this game and they've lost five

00:41straight usually pretty much in any other sport.

00:45Now, again, I don't claim to be an NBA expert, but in any other sport where a team's favorite

00:49after losing five straight, that tells you something that they're probably going to win

00:53the game.

00:55And in order to win the game, they're going to need big performances from their star players

00:58like Booker and Durant.

01:00So yeah, in this case scenario, I mean, it plays out.

01:02It's a very good, you know, trend basically in the sports betting scheme.

01:07So yeah, don't mind it for maybe a quarter unit or so, but I'm going to hand it off to

01:11somebody who's a lot more knowledgeable about the NBA than me, Amir.

01:14Yeah, for sure.

01:16You know, part of that is Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal.

01:19They both missed seven games this year, both of them.

01:21For whatever reason, everyone wants to come back against the Lakers, stay on the team

01:24with Jokic missing that time and come back against the Lakers.

01:27Everyone has to go on and pick with them.

01:28So you know, Kevin Durant, he's a walking bucket at all times.

01:33Devin Booker stays around 24, 25, March this season.

01:37So they're both extra motivated and especially having gone one and one in the series.

01:41I think that's a great one, especially I think at bare minimum, one of them will get there.

01:45And then you only would have to worry about Kevin Durant if they monitor his minutes given

01:49that he missed a couple games.

01:50But regardless, we know we can score in an abundant way, so definitely like that.

01:55Love that.

02:37Favorite bets for today.

02:38I am as a noted puck head going to the ice and I am taking Bruins money line against

02:45the Canucks.

02:46So that's minus 120 at BetMGM.

02:48The Bruins are favorite here, but since firing Jim Montgomery, the Bruins are 2 and 0.

02:53They did not get off to a great start, fired their coach, and now they are 2 and 0 since

02:57that firing.

02:58So they are trending in the right direction.

03:00Also, yes, also Jim Montgomery right away.

03:04New job.

03:05Immediately.

03:06Maybe not so for Jim.

03:08Well, yes, reports now that he has been talking, was talking to the Blues throughout the season

03:13before this.

03:15So he was he was stepping out on the Bruins a little bit.

03:17So good riddance to him, but also, yeah, also in this one, the home team has won seven of

03:25the last eight games between the Canucks and Bruins and the Canucks have lost each of their

03:29last four games at TD Garden.

03:31So I love Bruins money line for tonight to make it three in a row for the Brazilians.

03:37There you go.

03:38I'm going to go to college basketball, which is the basketball hodgepodge today.

03:42What is sports?

03:43Hodgepodge sports tonight.

03:44Yeah, we got everything over here at the NBA.

03:48We got the NHL, college basketball, all types of things tomorrow.

03:52I'm going to have like a million college football bets to give out on this show.

03:55So be ready for that.

03:57Tonight I'm going to go to college basketball, which is the basketball that I'm a lot more

04:00knowledgeable on than the NBA.

04:01We're going to go to a matchup between two teams that I don't think anybody really cares

04:06about.

04:07Grand Canyon taking on Stanford.

04:10Grand Canyon is three and two this season.

04:13Stanford is six and oh, and they're playing in a neutral site game tonight.

04:17Grand Canyon is favored in this game against Stanford.

04:21And that just tells me, look, Grand Canyon is three and two, Stanford is undefeated,

04:27and they're underdogs.

04:28And in college basketball, when this is the case, again, like I don't know about the NBA,

04:32but in college basketball, I can tell you when a team that is six and oh is an underdog,

04:37they're going to lose almost every single time.

04:41So give me Grand Canyon money line here, minus 114 over at Beth Rivers.

04:46That's the best price I see right now.

04:48But again, that's coming up a bit.

04:49Now Stanford's plus one and a half.

04:51So more money coming in on Grand Canyon, it looks like there.

04:54But yeah, love the the Lopes tonight.

04:57Go Lopes.

04:58Go Lopes.

04:59I can't say I know too much about that specific game, but just college basketball in general.

05:04Normally, I've been doing well in college basketball.

05:07Wanted to make a play earlier today, but by the time that the show comes on, people will

05:12have missed it.

05:13But I am going to stay in the NBA top market like I was yesterday.

05:16I'm going to go with Damian Lillard over seven and a half assists, plus 115 where I saw it.

05:22Chopped rounds, even get a better number.

05:24After he came out of the concussion protocol, he had three straight double doubles, 10 assists,

05:2810 assists, 13 assists, and then four assists against the Charlotte Hornets.

05:32But he's going up against the Miami Heat, averaging 7.4 assists on the season.

05:36So to be right on his average, especially at three straight double doubles before his

05:40last game.

05:41I think great odds there, especially given that the Bucs are still waiting on Chris Middleton

05:45to come around.

05:46He's going to continue to need to score and play make at a high level and the Bucs outside

05:50shooters are from the bench and the starters are starting to shoot the ball a little bit

05:53more.

05:54So he's been getting a little bit more help.

05:55Love that.

05:56Love it.
