00:00We'll start in Boston, where the Pistons come calling for the Celtics.

00:08Minus 12 and a half for the Celtics here.

00:12Always a big number when you walk into their building.

00:15Total at 225 and a half.

00:18Can the Pistons stay within the number tonight?

00:20Yeah, I don't think so.

00:23You know, I didn't even think so at 14.

00:26Everybody started betting it, right?

00:28And now it's 12 and a half, so I still think the Celtics will blow them out.

00:34I love that bench with Pritchard.

00:37The way they shoot threes, Tatum, Brown and company.

00:40It's ridiculous.

00:41I don't even know, I don't care if Porzingis is on that team anymore.

00:45They still wipe people out.

00:46So they're tough to beat in the garden.

00:48I'll still take a shot with the Celtics there at 12 and a half.

00:51Yeah, I think it might be because they've played twice already this year.

00:56This is the third time they're playing and the Pistons have been inside 10 both times.

01:01So they lost by 10, they lost by 6 each time that they've played this, including a couple

01:06days ago last week, the fourth.

01:09So eight days ago they played in Boston and it was a 10 point game, 130 to 120.

01:14So that could be why everybody's running to the window.

01:15That means Celtics tonight.

01:17Hammer, squash job for them here.

01:20Raptors in Miami against the Heat.

01:23Heat minus 10 and a half, 224 and a half the total.

01:28Yeah, I think Barnes is out, obviously.

01:31So I'll take the Raptors and the 10 and a half.

01:34If all the star players are out, give me the Raptors.

01:37Yeah, and Raptors beat them last week in Toronto.

01:40They also played a week ago and the Raptors beat Miami up there north of the border.

01:45So we'll take the big points with them down on South Beach and the Kings are in New Orleans

01:51against the Pelicans.

01:53Kings minus seven and a half is the number for us here.

01:57Yeah, I like the Kings.

02:02That number, you know, seven and a half is kind of fishy for me.

02:05It's a big number in that building and I know they're getting healthier, right?

02:10It's not as bad as it was where they had all their problems.

02:13Remember that one and a half point spread they covered when we were making fun of them?

02:17Maybe, maybe they're the, maybe they're the bet tonight.

02:20Seven and a half with them at home, Kings win, don't cover.

02:25They don't have Ingram tonight.

02:27There is no Ingram for the Pelicans.

02:29All the more reason.

02:30Give me the Pelicans in seven and a half and go back to our theory.

02:33All this is short-handed, automatic, they'll probably win outright.

02:38Team with less stars, they'll cover the big number.

02:41That's usually how it goes.

02:42Automatic.

02:43Automatic.
