Let’s get right into it Dre we’re going to be looking at two games tomorrow. And we’re going to start with Game Number Four jazz mavericks and Dallas leads this series two to one I guess that’s a little bit of a surprise
that going home to Utah the jazz or a five point favorite totals to 12 What what do you see this one to do the jazz come back and even at up but right i mean this this has just been embarrassing for Utah guys. Once Luca was ruled out for games one and two, you figured Utah is gonna go back up to Oh to Utah, maybe could even end the series there. But this this Mavericks team has been playing great behind the play of Jalen Brunson put up 41 in game two and then 31 in game three.
I mean, they’re up to one and it looks like they could go up three, one. The Jazz can’t seem to stop them. But I hit this play last night. I’m gonna go with it again. I’m gonna go with the over in this game. Last night, easy bats of Mavericks are splashing threes and it was possible to stop them. I think in Utah, Utah plays much better offensively. They are one of the best three point shooting teams in the league. And Luca might be back in this game.
If Lucas comes back that’s going to add scoring. But this Mavericks team has showed us that they can score even without Luca. So I’m gonna take this over in this game, almost 126 118 Last game, and they didn’t really adjust. I think they moved to like one point. So I’m going to take over in this game. So you’d like go over the points on that one. The series odds right now for people who like to bet you know, the series, Dallas is minus 220. Jazz is plus 180.
If you had to take a shot there, Dre, what do you think Dallas just wins this in the end? He could just see the jazz coming back. I don’t see how this jazz teams coming back comes back if Luca comes back. I mean, we were saying if they can be down to one or tied, because initially we thought Lucas is going to be back game three. But if Luke comes back and it’s to two or three one even I mean there’s I don’t think there’s a shot for the for the jazz.
It’d be a had a be added the side on the side with Joe and take the Mavericks. You take the points. Yeah, I tend to agree that the momentum is definitely on.
I actually think they’re being in a bit undervalued. I think it should be closer to minus 300. Wow, there you go. You can get them right now Dallas minus 220. Take it all. We have a lot of other plays that we’re going to be putting out over the weekend and tomorrow.

There’s actually there’s two other games we’re gonna reserve one game in the end. But let’s look at Game three here. Nets. Celtics. Well, they’re up to Oh, right now that going back to Brooklyn, the line on this one? The nets of favorite at home to 22 to 23 and a half. Can the nets win this game or what? What do you think?
I don’t I don’t see all the nets lose this game. I think they win this game. I think game four will be will be a bit more of a toss up. But I think other nets aren’t gonna go down through here. Kevin Durant’s got to snap out of it. He’s just been been. He’s really been they’ve been putting him in a box lately. Jason Tatum and Jalen brown are guarding him tremendously. He was four of 17 last game. From from the field. You went 18 of 20 from the free throw line, but for 17 was 23 and
half percent. He’s shooting 30 and a half percent from the field in this series. He is shooting better from three actually than he is from the field on they’ve been locking him down. But I think that Steve Nash we know he’s, he’s an offensive genius, kind of and I think he’s going to figure out a way to get Kevin Durant open. Get Kevin Durant some shots.
I think they win this game. I will take the nets at home here. I think they have this is a must win game for them. Last game, they go down three. Oh, I think the party’s over. I mean, the series basically saying Boston’s gonna win this thing that minus 420. And the net. So plus 315. I mean, do you see any value taking the nets? A three to one? I do? I do. I still I still think the nets can win this and seven. I think this I think this series is going to seven no matter what. And I think I think the nets have a shot.
All right, you can get three to one on that. You got 33321 on your money right now, if you take the nets to come back, that obviously line will drop tremendously if they go down three. Oh, let me ask you this Dre the total to 23 and a half. You see a high scoring plus matchup on Game three, what do you see or you see a defensive battle, it seems the nets score more at home. They’ve over. I don’t think they’ve scored less than 118 over their last three games at home. They haven’t in their last five, six games at home, they have not scored less than 118 points.
So I would take the over there. I mean, I know the Celtics are a great defensive team. But obviously the Mets like playing in front of their home crowd. And like I said, I think Kevin Durant gets back on track.
Alright, so you see a lot of points being scored there. What we normally do, like I said, we normally have other guests on so this is going to be somewhat of a shorter version here. What we normally do is we put out a best bet. So I’m going to come back to Dre now it could be either these two games, it could be a baseball game, and I know you’re a prop guy. So two things I’m going to ask for you give me a best bet. Don’t give it on the last game because we’re going to reserve that for for a special play that I’m going to announce at the end that is broadcast. Give me your best bet on either those two plays or any game on the weekend. And then give me a prop
give Okay, so for my best bet I’m gonna go with that first game. I just I liked the over there. I think if Luca comes back, I mean the Mavs have just been on fire from three they did exactly what they needed to do. They surrounded Luca, with the exact team that he needs to be surrounded with are just all shooters all around him. Maxi cleaver and davisburg times last night really showed that there were seven of 10 from three in the first half between them to the whole team.
He ate threes in in the third in the second quarter, excuse me, and Utah we know can light it up with Donovan Mitchell and Bogdan Bogdanovich. I just think that that this team, this scoring is going to go over again. The books didn’t really adjust
was 126 118 and I just think the Mavericks are playing extremely well right now. And Utah’s defenses obviously suspect at the moment. So your best bet is the over on the Dallas you target and if you had to squeeze out a prop bet I know your prop resident prop guy what would you say on a prop play either of those two games? I would take Mitchell’s over endpoints I think he knows that he is a great playoff performer.
I think he’s averaging over 30 points a game in the playoffs over his entire career. This is a must win game for them you cannot go back to Dallas down three one with with the maps at home looking to close out the series and maybe Luca coming back or Luca haven’t been back for a game. So I just think I think Mitchell is gonna go off. Er, I think he put up 32 points last night a couple nights ago. He’s he’s gonna have a big game.
Alright, so just to quickly recap first game you like the points with the Mavs you liked the over. Alright, second game, you think the nets are coming back, you’d lay the floor in Brooklyn and you don’t buy it down to three. I get three, get get it down the three or you pay a little extra VIG there but that’s the cost of doing business. And you’d go over to 223 and a half. And then you’d like was at the points with Mitchell you sit down.
Okay, can I give you a futures bet here, please? I know it’s sneaky but I like the Mavericks to win the Western Conference. I think that’s a nice you just sprinkle that there at plus 900 right now. It’s looking like they’re gonna play the winner. Well, they are going to play the winner of that son’s pelicans series. And with that injury to Booker, I just think I think the sons are
are a bit suspect right now if the Pelicans win. I would take the Mavs in a heartbeat in that series, and then they’d probably face the winner of the Memphis Golden State series is what it’s looking like. And I think the Mavericks have a chance. I mean, they put shooters all around Lucca. And then they have Jalen Brunson and Spencer Dinwiddie who can also get points when Luke is off the floor. So I like that sprinklers plus 900. At the moment.
It’s nine to one man that’s, it’s a nice little payoff if that comes through. As far as the last game on the board, talking Phoenix pelicans Saturday night, what we’re going to do is we normally would reserve that for us subscription clients only, but I’m going to release it to anyone that Texas hopes H O P S, and you’re going to see a 305 number of barrel and that’s for me that pelicans game is tonight. Oh, I’m sorry. I bought it and sold the is there is there? Is there a third game Saturday? Yeah, there’s two games out. There’s two other games Saturday. It’s the Philadelphia, Toronto game or the Memphis Minnesota game.
All right. So what is the latest game, the later game that is a Memphis game. All right. So if he attacks, hoops, H O PS. Alright, to the number that you see on the screen, that’s going to pop up the 305 number, you’re gonna get the point spread winner of that Memphis game, we’re also going to throw in the total.
So you’re gonna get a free pile a first 50 People only. We’re going to try something different here. Just text hoops, H O PS and you’ll automatically get a text back. And we’re looking forward to a big Saturday here. We’ll have our other co host Scott Matthews back next week. So all three of us will be on board.
