00:00There's a world that if Boston flips a little bit more, they can start to really cover then
00:07some of these numbers against Dallas.
00:09That six and a half point spread is one of the shortest numbers Boston's laid at home
00:12all season.
00:14It's true, but I think if this was a real playoff run, and I think if teams in the East
00:20were a bit tougher, and if people didn't bet Boston all year long, and the liability on
00:25the Celtics wasn't as high as it is for the sportsbooks, I think those numbers should
00:28have been three and four and five and a half, not nine, nine and a half, 10.
00:33I mean, they're making Boston such an overwhelming favorite because they've been the odds on
00:37favorite all year long.
00:38So I look at that and I'm like, okay, so they didn't cover a 10 point number in the playoffs.
00:44Like that's a detriment.
00:45Like we're going to knock the Celtics because the bookmakers need to over inflate the number
00:49because of what they've got from a liability standpoint.
00:52So look, Boston can win games by double digits.
00:55They're going to win game one or game two by double digits.
00:58Okay.
00:59They're going to win and cover one of the two games.
01:00The whole series in my mind will rest on the other home game for Boston because they're
01:05getting one game in Dallas.
01:07If Boston wins both games at home and it's 2-0 going to Dallas, it's going to split and
01:13Boston will go back with a game five and a chance to wrap the series up at home.
01:17So Dallas better get that second game or the first game and get a split in Boston because
01:22the split in Dallas is coming in game three and game four.
