NBA Slate Betting Analysis for Tonight: Magic vs. Sixers & More
Transcript
00:00 Sixers are in Orlando against the Magic.
00:05 No Embiid for Philadelphia.
00:07 Minus two and a half for the Magic here.
00:09 Two twenty-eight and a half is the total.
00:11 Well, if you look at the way Philadelphia played the last game on Christmas Day against
00:16 Miami, they were right in the game.
00:18 But they're going against an Orlando team that's playing relatively well.
00:21 No Embiid.
00:22 And Orlando's one of the best defensive teams, especially at the guard spots.
00:27 Our X-Maxxie's broth is way too high.
00:30 I'm going to go ahead and take the Orlando Magic on the money line tonight.
00:33 Minus one thirty-five on MGM.
00:36 Magic on the money line in Orlando.
00:38 I hope that the Bucs and their staff got some kind of a discount deal in the New York area
00:43 for their hotel because they've been there for a week.
00:46 Knicks Saturday.
00:47 Knicks Monday.
00:48 Now Brooklyn against the Nets tonight.
00:51 Minus seven and a half.
00:52 Two forty and a half.
00:53 Giannis questionable.
00:54 Giannis is questionable, but we already know that Nicholas Claxton and Cam Johnson are
00:59 already out.
01:00 And depending on where you look around, you're not seeing a lot of props right now for Bridges.
01:06 So we still have to figure out if Bridges is going to be in the lineup.
01:09 But listen, the Bucs got thoroughly embarrassed by the Knicks and particularly Jalen Brunson
01:16 on Christmas Day.
01:18 If they got any kind of prize, they're going to go into Brooklyn.
01:21 A team that, I don't know, has a sigh of relief that they won last night on a second leg of
01:27 a back-to-back rest advantage for Milwaukee.
01:32 This has got to be Milwaukee in a big win.
01:34 I think they win by double digits versus the depleted Nets team tonight.
01:39 Anything with the Raptors and the Wizards tonight, Coach?
01:42 That's kind of the one game you kind of put on the back burner here tonight.
01:46 Anything on the Raptors and the Wizards?
01:48 Really quick, that guy that you see on the left, Pascal Siakam.
01:51 I would look at him over four and a half assists tonight.
01:53 Over four in the last six games, three out of four versus the Wizards.
01:57 And then you have a team and a Washington Wizards that give up the most assists in the
02:02 NBA this season.
02:04 So I would stay away from the game.
02:06 But if you want a prop, look at Siakam.
02:08 Over four and a half assists tonight.
02:10 Knicks are in OKC.
02:12 Good game tonight.
02:13 Oklahoma City, as we know, 19-9 this year.
02:16 Really good at home.
02:17 Knicks on the road.
02:18 Did get the win on Monday, splitting those two games at home with Milwaukee.
02:22 Three and a half for the Thunder.
02:24 Two forty and a half.
02:25 I was just saying to Davis, that's a heavy total for a Knick game, Coach.
02:30 That is a heavy total for a Knick team that really is one of the best defensive teams
02:34 in the league.
02:35 But the one concern you have with them is the guard play and stopping a player like
02:39 SGA.
02:40 I think this is going to be a problem for the Knicks tonight.
02:42 I am a Knick fan.
02:43 I'm a Knick Homer.
02:44 You know this, Cover High.
02:45 I know.
02:46 I'm going to be Oklahoma City and Thunder minus a point tonight.
02:48 I think they get it done.
02:49 I know it's a back-to-back for OKC, but remember, folks, they were home last night.
02:54 They got the rest of the Stars, a lot of the fourth quarter, and a blot win.
02:58 But also maybe look at a double-double for someone like Julius Randle.
03:02 Right now, I think it's minus 125 on MGM.
03:06 It's the number two defensive, I'm sorry, rebounded percentage team in New York versus
03:11 the 29th in OKC.
03:14 I think Hartenstein could get in a foul trouble.
03:16 Randle's got to keep Chet off the boards.
03:18 Julius Randle, minus 125, double-double tonight.
03:22 We were just talking about the Suns.
03:23 They're in Houston tonight to take on the Rockets, Coach.
03:27 Suns minus 3.5 on the road, 225.5 the total.
03:32 Well, this is a situation where another team that's on a second leg of a back-to-back in
03:37 Houston and staying at home after a tough loss at the end of the game versus Indiana.
03:44 To me, you know what?
03:45 I'm looking at them.
03:46 The Slim Reaper.
03:47 KD, you got up there, you got all pissed off at your teammates, and you were the one that
03:54 were awful, you and Devin Booker.
03:56 27.5 is the point for Prop tonight.
03:59 I think he goes over it.
04:01 Big reason why, no Dylan Brooks to guard him.
04:04 Tari Easton, who is their other top defender, questionable, coming to bounce back spot
04:09 over 27.5 points.
04:12 And the Cavs are in Dallas against the Mavericks.
04:14 We got injury problems on both sides.
04:15 Donovan Mitchell questionable, Luka Doncic's questionable.
04:19 Lot to consider here.
04:20 Minus 2.5 right now for the Mavs with 231.5.
04:25 Carver High, the stat of the night.
04:28 Luka Doncic's point prop is 36.5 tonight, and I'm actually considering it.
04:35 I'm actually considering it because he's been on an absolute heater.
04:38 Listen, no Garland, no Mobley, big problems.
04:42 I think you need to start thinking about when Donovan Mitchell is going to ask out because
04:48 this team is treading nowhere.
04:50 As long as he plays the short spread, give me the Dallas Mavericks minus 2 points.
