00:00I did not think Cleveland had it in them to pull this off to win a seven game series, let
00:04alone go into Detroit and win. So I want to give them a ton of credit here. And clearly the
00:10trade that they made to get James Harden, whether or not Harden puts up 50 or 20, that seems to
00:16be part of the key as to why they did advance this far. So credit to them. Mobley with a
00:21big game yesterday. Mitchell with a really good game.
00:24And the only unfortunate part about this one, Kyle, honestly, is that after the half, you kind of thought, all
00:29right, well, that's it. Cleveland's going to the finals.
00:32Yeah, no, it was definitely, we wait all series for a game seven and then you get it and it's
00:38over by halftime and it leaves you kind of wanting more. But like you said, we bounced back. We've got
00:42a game one today. We got a game one tomorrow. The NBA is not going to die. So I think
00:46we're doing okay there.
00:47It was the middle part of what you said there that I think I'm most interested in. Evan Mobley coming
00:53to play with a career game in game seven.
00:56And now he takes on a Knicks team that's just kind of been riding the Carl Anthony Towns Express here
01:00to sweep the Sixers.
01:02Like I think if you're a Cavs backer and I'm going to take them plus a game and a half
01:06in this series as plus 100.
01:08So it's basically even money to do so. I think he's got to be a difference maker.
01:13Carl Anthony Towns over 63% of his assists last year. He's came with no dribbles from the score.
01:18He's just a hub for their offense. Evan Mobley is the type of player that can kind of body with
01:23him.
01:23And he's versatile enough to stick with him on the perimeter. We'll see if he holds up on the interior.
01:28But Jared Allen's there for that. I think they proposed an interesting, an interesting matchup here.
01:34The spread's three points higher than I had it for game one. So I guess, I guess I'm on Cleveland.
01:40I was with you.
01:40I didn't think they'd get here, but now I'm on them.
01:42Yeah. And as Kyle said, let's look at the odds here. Cleveland, a very even six and a half points.
01:49Wait till you see the line with the Thunder and Spurs. It'll look familiar because it's the same.
01:53But let's take a look here. Knicks minus six and a half coming up.
01:57And I, I, two 16 and a half, man, for the, for a team like the Knicks, this is the
02:01other part,
02:02Kyle, that I would ask you, isn't that a dangerously low total? I mean, if the Knicks just do what
02:06they did,
02:07or isn't this going to fly over or maybe you look at their team total individually?
02:11It's funny. I think you take the total with how you take the side. If you think the Knicks are
02:15going to win.
02:15Yeah. I think you play the over, but if you think the Cavs are going to pull this out or
02:19at least keep it close,
02:20I've got it just under four and a half points as a spread. So I'll be on Cleveland.
02:24Then I think you might lean the under thinking that they can kind of dictate pace that way.
02:28But yeah, if you're a Knicks backer, I see no way they win this game and they're not scoring upwards
02:33of 120 points.
02:35But that's shooting the way we saw it at the end of last year is they've had a week off
02:38their home.
02:39Like they check a lot of boxes here. So if you're going with the Knicks, yeah,
02:42I like the idea of taking the team total over.
02:44I like the Knicks.
02:44I like the Knicks.
