00:03 Two teams, J-Y, facing off tonight in Philadelphia that both lost their opener
00:07 out of the All-Star break.
00:09 No Donovan Mitchell.
00:10 Weirdly, last night for Cleveland,
00:12 Orlando wins outright as a five and a half point road dog in the land.
00:16 Now Cleveland goes on the road to take on the Sixers,
00:19 who were home last night, second leg of a back to back.
00:22 They lost by 14 to the New York Knicks.
00:25 A three and a half point spread in favor of the Cavaliers, who won 18 of 20.
00:31 Entering the All-Star break,
00:32 who bounces back with a win in their second game after the break tonight?
00:36 >> I have concerns with both teams, right?
00:41 And we've talked about it, the two small guard lineup of Garland and Mitchell.
00:46 The antiquated offense of having two bigs in Allen and Mobley.
00:50 But Philadelphia, folks, they just don't look right without Joel and Bede.
00:56 They just don't look right.
00:57 And I just think this is a team, folks, that they are just gonna have to,
01:02 I hate to say it, tread water until Joel and Bede comes back.
01:06 And that's why you keep seeing their odds in the Eastern Conference keep going
01:09 further and further and further away.
01:11 Now it's 16 to 1 to make it.
01:13 I think this is the game with Donovan Mitchell, he's back.
01:16 I'll take Cleveland by the supports.
01:17 I know they've bounced back.
01:18 I know about teams playing back to back, home, home.
01:22 I think this is a big game for Cleveland because Cleveland's got a proof.
01:25 Also, kind of like Milwaukee, what are they?
01:29 Because they've been hot.
01:30 Bad start after coming out losing at home to Orlando.
01:33 I think they bounced back because they have Spider back tonight.
