2:03
who runs a sports book over there, I I said
2:05
during the break, so I got to talk to Vinny Malula
2:07
earlier today, hosting Lombardi line. Now we get talked
2:09
to Chris Sanders I I told that to Chris he goes,
2:12
lucky you. And and only and only the way
2:14
you can do
2:14
that, Chris. So great great to have you on. How's everything
2:16
over there at the shop? Yeah.
2:18
Yeah. Yeah. I'm doing fine. But you gotta you gotta
2:21
set your goals life a little higher. I gotta do
2:23
it. Okay.
2:24
No. You know, if you're an established a
2:27
core foundation of
2:30
this space. So, I mean, you're you're somebody, you're
2:32
a celebrity. When you're a what do you
2:34
call it when you
2:35
write, like, a really a a best selling author?
2:37
Is is that is is that the category Chris
2:39
is in as well? I mean --
2:40
Yeah. -- I'm not bed selling, but I'm selling.
2:42
How's that selling?
2:43
Okay. Well, if you sold one, you sold more than
2:45
me. So
2:46
Okay. Well, I have done that. A
2:48
fair statement. Adele Fosemu is the new book
2:51
from from Chris Andrews. And I VSiN got the pronunciation
2:53
right. You know I'm a play by play
2:54
guy. I got you know -- Right. -- I got pretty it's
2:57
pretty close. I I feel like I did better. I can
2:59
see Ben's house, Chris, with,
3:01
like, sticky, like,
3:03
no
3:04
stuff, posted everywhere with, like, the
3:06
hyphen in the right place on out.
3:08
Yeah. From now to all different plants
3:10
at all. In the Pervaso location. Alright.
3:13
I resent that statement. Only a little bit, but not
3:15
Meanwhile, I just butcher the names and apologize
3:17
right after. That's
3:19
how Sean does it. Alright, Chris. So
3:21
we're we're get we're I've heard a couple people reference
3:24
this stretch of the college basketball season as as
3:26
sort of the dog days of summer if you
3:28
can really call it that for colleges because you see so
3:30
many teams got They have one eye on March. I think
3:32
a lot of betters have one eye on March. We're we're tired
3:34
of the regular season. We want conference tournaments.
3:36
We want March Madness. How has
3:38
that impacted the handle now that college basketball
3:40
is really the premier sport going on right
3:42
now, but we're not quite there yet to the promised
3:44
land of March.
3:47
No. I gotta tell you it's been pretty slow today.
3:49
You know, I'm looking at went some business
3:51
on this Xavier Seaton Hall game. It's a pretty
3:54
good game, really. You know, but
3:56
other than that, we haven't had much and I'll
3:58
be lying if I told you it was even more
4:00
than
4:00
that. It just really isn't. The NBA doesn't
4:03
open a business, but there's nothing
4:05
too serious to me. I'll be honest with
4:07
you. If you want business to pick up Chris
4:09
put all the hockey totals at five and a half.
4:12
Oh my god. Yeah. That would yeah.
4:16
That that would do it. I I'd have to go
4:18
to the airport, though, to get all the finals in
4:20
the finals for I'd
4:22
have to get the next plane
4:23
out. You know, I don't think I'm gonna
4:25
try that right now. It's
4:27
amazing because I I mean, as as
4:30
recent as what maybe four years ago,
4:32
I mean, the the normal total was five, five
4:34
and a half. And now, I mean, it's it's below
4:37
six, six and a half, and you find VSiN a
4:39
whole lot of
4:39
times. Well, I remember
4:42
the Gretzky days, you and
4:44
we'd see an occasional eight on a
4:46
game. Now we haven't gone that far yet, but
4:48
So even back in the old days when,
4:50
you know, we used to say a six and a half
4:52
was an automatic old cleaned that
4:54
under six and a half. Now
4:56
we see plenty of six and a half, and plenty of guys have
4:58
been over. We still get at the occasional five and
5:01
a half, but now we see seven now
5:03
on games. You know, that's just that
5:05
that really was unheard of for about twenty
5:07
years really. You know, but the game is
5:09
opening up a little bit. I think that's good. There are a lot
5:11
of school position players that are realized
5:13
how to how to put the puck in the back of the
5:15
net. Speaking of things that have changed, we
5:17
were talking, Sean and I about how like,
5:19
Janice, out of nowhere comes
5:21
back, he's in tonight. I'm I'm sure
5:24
VSiN it's funny. That's that's like the, you know,
5:26
to the good. Right? If if you're talking about superstars,
5:28
Rehanis is a guy who wants to play If
5:30
he is able to physically suit it up, he he almost
5:33
certainly will, the exception to the
5:35
rule in the NBA, at a night where the Bucks
5:37
are, what, one and a half point favorites, all of a sudden, they
5:39
go up to six and a half basically -- Exactly.
5:41
-- VSiN with him being him being boosted up. But
5:43
how much difficult has your job become booking
5:45
NBA from the overall star's perspective now
5:47
compared to where we were even just a few years
5:49
ago? Yeah.
5:51
You're talking about that again, I'm looking, we did have a
5:53
one and a That's what we opened. We're five and a half now.
5:55
They took little bit of six of
5:56
it. You know? But, yeah, that was something
5:59
that a couple of decades ago
6:01
was really unheard of to
6:04
have these planned absences
6:06
I mean injuries are always gonna be a part of the game.
6:09
You know, but when when this thing started,
6:12
it's just become so prevalent really,
6:15
we hardly put up any games overnight
6:17
anymore, because there's just too much of this
6:19
that happens really on daily
6:22
basis. And I understand
6:24
from some point of view for load management,
6:26
but something has to be done. I'll tell
6:28
you what, VSiN, this is, of course,
6:30
a game we show that's what we have to keep the focus
6:32
on. But I don't know if you're a parent,
6:34
you're going to take your wife and two kids
6:36
in the game that probably cost you about one thousand
6:38
dollars all of sudden you show up got a couple
6:41
players for the team that you wanna see whether it's,
6:43
you know, LeBron or Anthem or something
6:45
like that. All of a sudden, VSiN in the lineup because
6:47
they just feel like rest of them that day. I
6:49
think that's terrible for the game. So they have to
6:51
figure something out. And I'm not sure exactly
6:53
what it is, because don't think they're gonna cut down the
6:56
number of games. But, you know,
6:58
something kind of fly here. I don't know.
7:00
It doesn't work. I've got to tell you real quick. We
7:02
went years ago, Jimmy Vaccaro and I and
7:05
couple other guys. We went to LA to go
7:07
VSiN. We wanna see Kobe Bryant when he was, you know,
7:09
his last couple years. There's no
7:11
way Kobe was sitting out. You know, that's just
7:13
his mentality. Yeah. Kobe was gonna play.
7:15
You know, and and we never had that worry.
7:17
If they go, maybe Kobe's gonna sit
7:20
out this one. There ain't no chance. No. He was gonna
7:22
play. And we and that thought never crossed our
7:24
VSiN. But now it kinda has to you have to think about
7:26
it a lot with Dolby, obviously. But,
7:28
you know, with other guys
7:29
who, you know, it's really kinda become standard
7:31
procedure. Chris Andrews, South
7:34
Point Sportsbook director here on Visa
7:36
Primetime. Chris, I got a
7:38
question because they got through their first weekend
7:40
and then the battle hawks went to AA2
7:43
and o team yesterday.
7:46
What kind of action have you seen on
7:48
the Xfl if any? And do you think
7:50
it changes as people get a little more
7:52
familiar with the product?
7:54
Yeah. I mean, I think I think it'll
7:57
pick up you know, you know,
7:59
a couple things working here though. You know,
8:01
first of all, nobody knows what really the
8:03
key numbers are, you know, because you could go
8:05
for you can go for two, you can go for three
8:08
on an extra point. So there's --
8:10
it's not like three and
8:12
seven are such key numbers
8:16
yet. You know, I
8:16
mean, I I think right now you have to look at how
8:18
some of this stuff's gonna work. you
8:20
know, the the action kind of promotes
8:23
more action So
8:24
sometimes you have a game and you go to three VSiN from
8:26
three to three and a half, all of a sudden, you know, the guys
8:28
come VSiN, all of a sudden they can't can't imagine
8:30
getting that extra half point. Well, I'm not sure
8:33
what what half points mean what in this
8:35
league. And there were only two weeks VSiN.
8:37
Now we've taken money on every game, you know,
8:40
but nothing nothing
8:42
to sweat, Sean. Let me just put it in that way.
8:44
You know, I got you know,
8:46
that I I gotta weigh more money
8:48
on the Marshall Old Dominion game that I
8:51
do. I'd probably leave the entire US
8:54
FLL or SFLM in the call. Marshall,
8:56
one of the three teams in that conference, UAB
8:58
and FAU being the other. A lot of people like
9:00
from a future standpoint VSiN what people view
9:02
as a wide open college basketball march
9:05
madness?
9:06
Well, think something's gonna come out of nowhere
9:08
but, you know, I don't know who that team is.
9:11
FAU, I hear a lot of guys talking about them.
9:13
I really haven't had chance to see them much, but think
9:15
somebody's gonna come out of nowhere and make a big
9:17
VSiN. course, you can say that almost every
9:19
year. And the trick is to find out which team
9:22
that is, you know. And, you know, I really
9:24
don't know, but I think this is a wide open tournament.
9:26
And again, I could be saying that
9:28
for the last twenty years in a
9:29
row, you know.
9:30
I do like the Auchon, especially if they're in a, you
9:32
know, tens of
9:33
millions of range. That's a really analytics.
9:35
Got multiple guys. They can put the
9:37
ball in the basket. Those teams are dangerous.
9:39
I'll be betting more on the tournaments. VSiN that Seattle
9:41
Grand Canyon game tonight than any XFO game.
9:45
I got an interesting NFL question for
9:47
you, Chris. When pre
9:50
agency's about to hit, how
9:53
on the edge of your seat, are you trying
9:55
to be ahead of where Aaron Rogers
9:58
or Derek Carr or one of these guys
10:00
gonna end up? Or do you just kinda you
10:02
know, not necessarily don't care, but
10:04
just when it happens, you'll adjust.
10:07
Yeah. A little bit of both. You know, when it happens,
10:10
we'll adjust. But, you know, I did get some money me
10:13
on the jets. And I think
10:15
lot of people are anticipating either
10:19
car or Roger is going to wind
10:21
up there We
10:23
took a big bet on Denver the other
10:25
day. I think guys are thinking that
10:28
Sean Payton is really going help Wilson
10:30
and offline. He's not one of these three agents
10:32
that you're talking about. And then we took some
10:34
money on the Raiders too. Now some of it was
10:36
them being the home team here. But
10:39
a lot of other people, I think there
10:41
is some chatter that Rogers
10:43
may show up in Las Vegas. VSiN
10:46
could see why. And so,
10:48
yeah, I've taken money on some of those
10:50
things, but a little bit of
10:52
both. I mean mostly I'm waiting see
10:55
who they want to bet. We can't remember. We're going
10:57
to have so much money on these futures by
11:00
the time the dust settles next
11:02
year. I remember this time probably
11:04
last year I was out of sweat and Buffalo.
11:07
You know, everybody thought Buffalo was like automatic
11:09
in the Super Bowl. By the time the season
11:11
ended, we were in great shape with Buffalo. And
11:13
then, of course, the Tampa Bay stuff, the news
11:15
came out, the Brady was coming back VSiN you
11:18
know, a lot of money showed there. Some
11:20
guys got some great prices. They wind up
11:22
profitable for me yesterday. You
11:24
know, I mean, that that's just we're gonna have
11:26
so much money on this thing by the
11:28
time, you know, end of the VSiN, what's wrong.
11:30
It's it's nothing really for me
11:32
to sweat. Right? It all works out at
11:34
the end of the day. Chris Sanders from the South Point Sports,
11:36
a Sports Director over there at Andrew Sports joining
11:38
us right now on VSiN Primetime. The the
11:41
favorite topic. I know you you just love
11:43
NFL Draft season as a bookmaker every
11:45
second year. Well, what what what is the looking
11:47
like this year as far as when you when you plan to start
11:50
posting numbers on a on an event that
11:52
is I know the bane of your existence every year.
11:55
I'm not gonna post it out there. So, you
11:58
know, I'm sorry. You know, I know a lot other guys
12:00
are in town gonna post it they can
12:02
have that I'm not gonna do it. You know, it's just
12:04
it's just been money loser force every
12:06
single year. VSiN
12:09
Mr. Gong, it's just fine. I put it up.
12:12
I'm just not going to use it. It's
12:14
of those things where didn't don't feel like
12:16
handing out money. It seems like that's what happens
12:18
every it seems like that's what exactly
12:21
happened every single
12:22
year.
12:22
Think that's a great solution It's nice
12:24
about it's a mister Gossamer. You
12:26
stand without one. Hey. I
12:29
I respect that, Chris. Go check out his
12:31
new book, by the way, if you haven't. Again, That's next it's

15:50
The the one update I was looking at, Sean, I,
15:52
you know, thinking about the the Knickerbocker's when
15:54
they were down big
15:55
early. VSiN and half life, got
15:57
24 four and a half. Oh, sixty
15:59
four sixty. Yeah. You all were in forty
16:01
four twenty nine. VSiN I was like, you got them
16:03
exactly what they want
16:04
them. Yeah. Yeah. Now, it could very
16:06
easily be down twenty at the end of the third, and it could
16:08
be Sure. Sure. -- the
16:09
volatility that exists that regular
16:12
season.
16:12
Nicks, who were very popular money
16:14
VSiN underdog play tonight. We're bet from two and half
16:16
all the way down to one point
16:17
underdog.
16:18
We're on the road against Washington sixty four,
16:20
sixty wizards at the half right now. Knicks still laying
16:22
one point for the second half, so catching
16:25
three there for the game. Hawks all over
16:27
Cleveland right now at seventeen early second
16:29
quarter. With the expectation that a hiring
16:31
of Quinn Snyder is that coach. He's going to be imminent.
16:34
VSiN, yeah, so much for for the bucks,
16:36
maybe being little bit rusty. Johannes Santen 24
16:38
he plays. And he has been extremely
16:40
effective. He and the Milwaukee Bucks. Bucks put
16:42
up forty two in the first
16:43
quarter in Miami.
16:44
How about them, Apple, Sean?
16:46
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Honestly, it's a different breed
16:48
in a good way. I
16:49
would say.
16:50
So every ten uses they had a BP. How
16:52
about Bobby Portis off the bench ten points
16:54
in -- Oh. -- five minutes for Bobby
16:56
Portis who also has been He's been
16:58
sidelined. He's he's been a sneaky
17:00
piece for for the
17:01
for the bucks off the bench. So that's a a really nice
17:03
addition to getting him back into the fold. And so the
17:05
Bucks League thirty two or forty two thirty two
17:07
at the end of one lane, ten points now
17:09
live. They closed five and a half point
17:11
favorites. So I don't know. Maybe that's where I
17:13
would look look for the middle if I took a
17:15
very had I taken a bucks opener number
17:18
of minus one and a half before the Honest News was
17:20
announced? Maybe. Well, you didn't have
17:22
points right there. By the way,
17:24
the patch was a playing like the other team that's
17:26
on the second game of back to
17:28
back, and it just gave it not the sabers. That's
17:30
like a soft goal from your guy sergeantski.
17:33
Yeah. Oh, he dropped the he
17:35
had the stick knocked out of him. So what happens when
17:38
you panic under pressure?
17:40
Obviously, it looks like what never
17:41
happened.
17:42
VSiN from Wisconsin, never played
17:43
the I do have to make police on a power play.
17:46
There we go. Get it done.
17:48
I've curled. I've not played hockey. Been
17:50
curling at.
17:50
Really? Tim Murray. Tim
17:52
Murray tweeted out some foolishness about this
17:54
time a year ago or five years ago,
17:56
he was at some kind of curling
17:58
event, like a moment. In defense of Tim.
18:01
That was probably probably
18:03
the greatest single curling event in
18:05
US a big
18:06
Obviously,
18:06
you're you're back in this play?
18:08
I it was a it was a okay. Johnson
18:10
you
18:11
spend your money to go watch
18:13
people Let's roll out the
18:15
ice. You're throwing you're throwing stones at
18:17
house. Oversized putt, you know,
18:19
slowly slides down the stone shop. And
18:21
this this sounds like I
18:23
mean, jeez. I was
18:24
alright. was a vice skip in high school. Right? I didn't
18:26
know. I mean, you
18:27
can't
18:27
get my
18:27
light. The other person can't even, like, not
18:30
loyola can. Okay. Yeah. The thirty
18:32
second thing on the US curling. They were the laughing
18:34
stock of Olympic curling. Mhmm.
18:36
John Shuster somehow
18:38
was the was the skip, the captain, even though
18:40
his career had been basically a failure
18:43
outside of VSiN bronze medal in two thousand six.
18:45
Giant underdogs They pull off one of the
18:47
biggest upsets in curling history VSiN
18:49
the final. They make it to the finals, which is a huge
18:51
upset, and then they beat the Swedes on
18:53
an on an unbelievable takeout shocked by John
18:55
Shuster in the ninth
18:56
end, and they won the gold medal
18:58
for the US in twenty eighteen. And I stayed up,
19:00
but
19:00
watched it. It was, like, on two eight, not at two
19:02
AM. I
19:02
got a break in the Buffalo game too. They dis they
19:05
disallowed the goal because
19:06
Buffalo
19:06
is the whole size. They're trying to choose So you
19:07
let me talk about curling for thirty seconds you
19:09
got a break on Yes. Some things I'm
19:12
I'm I'm just I I'm very impressed
19:14
by the depth of knowledge.
19:17
Right. You and someone to all people in the world that care
19:19
about currently. Outside of the actual players
19:21
and their parents. Mhmm.
19:23
Okay. Yeah. I
19:24
mean, you're probably not that long.
19:26
Curlers don't have groupies.
19:27
Oh, no. Right. No. No. They
19:29
don't have for now. But you
19:30
would it's a fun sport to play because you you can drink
19:32
beer.
19:32
I'm cool. I can ice skating. Well, you
19:36
don't It's all nice. You
19:37
put on you put on, like, a rubber
19:38
sealant. I thought they put on, like, it's a formal
19:40
ice skating, just without the ice skating.
19:43
Right. But, you know, you you're coordinated. You're a
19:45
professional athlete. Right. You can do
19:46
VSiN. Yeah. didn't even wait a look at it.
19:51
You were thinking about how how Russell
19:53
Westbrook's impact is going to impact the king's Clippers
19:56
game here. That's all we
19:56
got. We have some only have some props.
19:59
Mhmm. Russell
19:59
Westbrook. Fifteen and a half points tonight in his debut.
20:01
This is the Marquis game of the night. I'm coming up
20:03
ten forty on the East Coast at about two
20:06
and a half hours. Clipper's now laying
20:08
seven pretty much market wide at Bed, MGM. It's still
20:10
six and a half and home against the Sacramento Kings.
20:13
As far as the injury report for
20:15
the the whole day, there's really
20:17
it's it's pretty much VSiN. And so, you know,
20:19
I I'm little surprised that the Clippers are laying that
20:21
much against the Kings team that has been game
20:24
live all season getting no respect in the
20:26
market, the third seat in the West, but from
20:28
the Russ standpoint, fifteen and
20:30
a
20:30
half. Seems like a fair number. I could get a
20:32
guarantee on how many minutes he's gonna they play
20:34
because game flow matters. If they're
20:36
down big or they're up big and they're probably not
20:38
gonna play the second
20:39
half, where is he in the rotation? If
20:42
he doesn't get off to a hearts a hot start, he's
20:44
expected to start by the way tonight.
20:46
Yeah. The Clippers have no shot. If
20:49
he starts, I like him though from a play from my individual
20:51
player
20:51
prop. I like it. I like him. I like the
20:54
opportunity to go over more so if he starts.
20:56
So he's averaging about sixteen points again this
20:58
year. And that is coming in
21:02
twenty eight and a half minutes. So I, like,
21:04
I thought that I thought the workload would be would be
21:06
less. I would have, you know, I would have said in the twenty
21:08
two to twenty five minute range. VSiN the one thing I will
21:10
say that kinda would make me lean over
21:12
is the Clippers VSiN prove that it was
21:14
the Lakers not Russ. Russ
21:17
wants to prove that it was the Lakers not Russ.
21:19
So the motivation is there, player and
21:21
team for him to look good, highlight
21:23
him, spotlight him. So
21:27
I can see him having a big game. But when it
21:29
comes down to cameras, actually make the
21:31
jump shot at this
21:32
point. Right. But it's like VSiN when Calvert
21:34
Irving goes to Dallas, and we all sit there and go,
21:36
ah, what what is Eddie? It's doing. There's
21:38
no way this works long term. You could tell they,
21:41
right away, wanted to prove Calvert Irving would in
21:43
a good mental
21:44
state, was ready to be a team player, and
21:46
him and he and Luca Dotch.
21:47
Go ahead and close this out. But, hey, man.
21:50
Yolked.
21:51
Yolked. Yolked. Tieses,
21:54
they're not helping you. Play by Play guy.
21:56
I I hit another goal VSiN the Panthers game.
21:58
I was looking at Points plus SIS as well
22:00
for for Westbrook if you wanted to go down that
22:02
route.
22:04
You're you're just got that was
22:06
that a was that a Stahl brother who -- Yeah.
22:08
I'm I'm just
22:09
another -- hit
22:10
the VSiN net here in the panther's saber's
22:12
game.
22:12
How the goalie is down for
22:14
good. Hope he's out because he's playing too good.
22:16
But Why
22:16
are there why are there multiple men lying on the
22:19
ice cradle in the gurney shirt, buffalo's
22:21
going to power play now too? That looks
22:23
very dangerous. Westlake is twenty one
22:25
and half on the points plus assists. So
22:27
that's an that's an alternative where because,
22:30
like, we know us. I mean, he's he's gonna wanna
22:32
distribute VSiN He wants
22:34
to make sure like, he's a and he's a even and even
22:36
with his poor usage
22:37
rate, the series. I thought seven
22:38
and a half anticipated. Those points and I feel
22:40
better for his points and rebound.
22:42
Really? Okay.
22:43
He said about six rebounds again. What
22:44
I mean, it's triple double. You have to get double digit
22:46
assist 24 that's what the average for two years?
22:48
Yeah. And where do you see that? I'll pull up.
22:51
I'll pull up. Points rebound assist.
22:53
Because I I you could tell you get the look in your
22:55
eye. Like, I'm betting something with you.
22:56
Yeah. I'm trying to pull the trigger. I don't I didn't
22:59
Twenty six and a half on the point three rebounds
23:01
assist ten to one triple double is what
23:03
our producer Hess is is telling me
23:05
about here. I would you know what
23:07
the double double is actually like, I could
23:09
see from a stat perspective. Like, plus three sixty
23:12
is actually like, view of that of that
23:14
viewpoint, that he's got something
23:16
to prove. Game flow gets a king's team that
23:18
is really good, but but struggles to play
23:20
defense. The number is a
23:22
bet MGM is plus three twenty, but you can find plus
23:24
three sixty in That's probably if I was really
23:26
taking a I'm not gonna do it, but if I really wanted
23:29
to have some fun and and go crazy on my Friday night
23:31
after I visit the John King's cigar lounge? I've got
23:33
a question for you. He's
23:35
not respecting the
23:38
Sacramento Kings enough. I'm
23:40
course, they're not. I mean, it's it's the what
23:42
was what was the quilt coming
23:44
back in the early two thousand? Is it the best working
23:46
in the west? But everybody just kinda It'll come
23:48
back down there ever since Phil Jackson calling cow
23:50
town in the two thousand two WestJet Conference Finals.
23:52
That that's kinda how people look at them. It's
23:55
it's unfair. Disrespect. They've
23:58
demonstrative bonus. One of the one of the dominant
24:00
big men from both an offensive and defensive
24:03
standpoint that that is the only
24:05
modicum of defense they have yet is so good
24:07
distributing the ball from his inner post position
24:09
and also finishing around the rim. That's
24:12
really worked out for Sacramento.
24:13
Yes. Yes. People thought
24:15
they gave up too much to Indiana the guard.
24:17
I can't draw a blank on his name. The place for
24:20
the pacers now. Halliburton. Count tires
24:22
Yeah. Well, how would you deal with Halliburton? This isn't
24:24
really worked out in the in the king's
24:26
favor. It's Mona's is not
24:28
only versatile, but he's durable. Which
24:31
honestly, in today's NBA for a superstar
24:33
is probably the best adjective you
24:35
can have next to your day when you actually play. So
24:40
Sacramento, like, catching VSiN tonight against
24:42
a a Clippers team that's been up and down. The only hesitation
24:44
I would I would have with pulling the trigger is when
24:46
Clippers have been at full strength, You've quiet
24:48
Leonard Paul George
24:49
in. I mean, they're on off numbers with when it's
24:52
Leonard and George, it's kinda scary.
24:54
Right. They're and
24:54
that's why the betting market is going that high
24:57
because they're putting up top of the league numbers
24:59
with those two specifically on the floor.
25:01
VSiN you assume everyone's everything's gonna get you're
25:03
gonna look rosy for one night with Westbrook. Sure.
25:06
I don't know how about how it The night is the night
25:08
night. Let's go Russ. Plus three sixty
25:10
double double. Russ. That's
25:12
VSiN form of Russ cooking. When we
25:14
come back get a little NFL thing there, Russell
25:16
Wilson. We'll go back to the NFL. Some draft topics.
25:19
There's a new market available. We'll
25:21
discuss. It's on Bijan Robbins in the tech
25:23
running back next.

It's and that'll be international curling for
26:08
you. John, III guarantee you
26:10
West rentals, just watching studio also
26:12
knows what I'm talking about when John Schuster pulled
26:14
off the greatest -- New
26:15
West. -- pick ups at a long time. Twenty eighteen, New
26:17
West.
26:18
Both look like six hundred page book
26:20
readers or mahogany
26:22
rich mahogany leather bound books.
26:24
That's what I I like to do that that late at night.
26:26
Read
26:26
it, guys. How
26:27
long did it take you to read the book?
26:29
The the David Mariner's book. VSiN. It's
26:31
a pamphlet by lightning, by the way, Jim Thorpe. It
26:33
took me
26:35
when I probably started second
26:37
week in January, and I just finished it.
26:39
So, like, over a month.
26:41
Hey, you you grind out like twenty, you know,
26:43
twenty pages night, Sean?
26:44
Oh my goodness. You well, you know, they say you don't wanna
26:46
be on your phone. It's bad for your brain
26:48
to be on your phone or watching TV like right
26:50
before bed.
26:52
So you don't don't just Oh, yeah. I'm
26:54
the opposite. Yeah. I can't sleep without, like,
26:56
either my iPad or or the
26:57
TV. Not
26:59
good for you, man.
27:00
Oh, then
27:00
you play in the NFL. So going forty five
27:03
years. He's here. And you're looking good.
27:05
You're still you're still doing the
27:06
thing. I I realize it probably looks a
27:08
little counter too. I'm just at night out, although, so,
27:10
like, I have 24, like and
27:12
that's the only way I can fall asleep
27:14
like, especially if it's before, like, midnight.
27:16
I get like, ten thirty my body's like, alright, we're
27:18
done. We've had a good run time. We're just shutting
27:20
down.
27:20
Yeah. Okay. Battery's juiced at that VSiN.
27:23
Yeah. You see, we We can coexist. Mhmm.
27:25
We have new Although
27:27
we're shutting down the day. I don't know what you're saying today. It's
27:29
Friday. We we do have new draft
27:31
markets. That's the one thing that can get us excited this time
27:33
of year. You get new draft markets they're slowly
27:36
but surely starting to populate for the NFL draft,
27:38
the latest 1II find it interesting that
27:40
maybe just because it's a Texas running back and he was
27:42
a popular name, but that we only have
27:45
one player offered right now in the market. And
27:47
this is from DraftKings, just on specific player,
27:49
and which team will draft him. And that's Texas
27:51
running back, Bijan Robinson, who in the in
27:53
the current era of running
27:55
backs and the polarization of how they are viewed
27:57
in NFL circles, maybe that's why. Sean, this
27:59
is a market we can bet. Fill it
28:02
off the eagles are plus two fifty be
28:04
the team that drafts Bijan Roberts VSiN actually the favorite.
28:06
Mhmm. And that so that's an interesting
28:08
starting point to look at with the with the bills
28:10
number two, cowboys number 3, a guy who's viewed to be
28:13
more of a late later first round pick
28:15
potentially, but it's it's a
28:17
it's a fascinating kind of talking
28:19
point at least, you know, the litmus test of how well he
28:21
determined the rest of the running back market a draft
28:23
that has tended to undervalue running
28:26
backs over the last few
28:26
years. You know, it it's interesting because
28:29
this is a really hard, like, question
28:31
to ask until you find out are the Eagles gonna
28:33
resign mile Sanders? What are the cowboys
28:35
gonna do with Tony Pollard?
28:37
The bills just used a draft pick last year on
28:39
James
28:40
Cook. So, I mean, the
28:42
teams that are the prohibited favorite, you know,
28:44
what do the falcons really think about algiers?
28:47
I I think his name. Tyler Altier. Yeah. He's
28:49
from BYU. So
28:53
It's it's a VSiN, and it's so I I get it.
28:55
Because it's it's truly guessing. And
28:58
this might be why he's the only one that's
29:00
offered right now because these other teams have legitimate
29:03
free agency concerns as
29:05
far as, like, they're starting running back this past VSiN,
29:07
what are they gonna do with them? So you play it's
29:09
basically, you know,
29:11
shot in the dark. Right. And the rumors
29:13
are that he could, yeah, he could be a potential
29:16
top ten pick depending on if
29:18
somebody were to fall in love with him based on
29:20
the the tape that he's put on, and that's where you have the
29:22
falcons at nine to one who pick eight
29:24
as we if you're watching us online at visa
29:26
dot com YouTube TV, the draft order showing
29:29
falcons eight right down there nine to
29:31
one on the board, but I guess I think of the
29:33
Kansas City draft a few years ago when they had all
29:35
these great offensive weapons and they draft Clyde
29:37
Edwardsilaire. VSiN if and if there's that
29:39
thought of, okay, just because it's not
29:41
necessarily need, but we can
29:43
add a really dynamic player who has
29:45
really good burst and power from the running back
29:47
position, we'll go out and take them even
29:50
if we're already pretty well solidified at
29:52
that position or just general
29:53
skills. It's a luxury pick as well. You
29:55
know, if you're a team that has a lot of needs, I don't
29:57
think you can afford to go running
29:59
back top ten in the
30:01
draft. You know, just as
30:03
good as say, VSiN Barclay is. Like, he
30:05
still
30:05
plays running back. You know? Like, so
30:08
no offense to running backs out there, but that's just the
30:10
reality of the sport and where it's
30:11
at. So I don't know. Interesting.
30:13
If you made me choose one of these, I
30:16
would say
30:20
I'm crossing off
30:20
Kansas City for sure. I would say
30:23
VSiN.
30:25
And VSiN
30:25
don't they feel about Dobbins' health? Donald
30:27
Trump has been banged up in a lot more people. Twenty
30:29
third. Right. Which makes a little more sense,
30:32
you know, you wanna show Lamar
30:34
that you're doing everything you can to get better around
30:36
him. You know, you get caught, VSiN, and
30:39
a new toy. I
30:41
get it. Philadelphia also picks tenth before
30:43
their Philadelphia too. First run. Tenth
30:45
from they got that from the from the Saint
30:47
C. J. Gardner Johnson trade, and then thirty
30:49
first. Kansas City picks thirty
30:51
second. I don't I
30:52
don't get how Philly got the Saint's And
30:55
Gartner Johnson?
30:57
That is a good question. I don't know either. Like,
30:59
when I looked at that, I was like, am I is this backwards?
31:02
Like because the saints sent Gartner Johnson
31:04
to the Eagles, but the Eagles got
31:07
the saints first round peak. And I was looking
31:09
at, like,
31:10
I don't remember the Eagles sending the Saints.
31:13
It was a you know what? It
31:14
was a compromise. It was not it was not a
31:16
part of the CGGGG. Johnson Street. That's It
31:18
was a it was a first round pick
31:20
swap that that's
31:24
that's as far as I recall,
31:26
that's how it went. Yes.
31:28
Because it was part of the pickswap last year. So
31:30
remember, the Eagles went went to went
31:32
to eighteenth Saint Paul took a lot
31:34
of it. Okay. And with that, Alright. You guys got
31:36
the Saints twenty twenty three version. Okay. That
31:38
that makes sense. That was not he
31:40
was not part of
31:41
that. Yeah. Because that would've also not
31:43
By the way, I hope they don't pay you any of the Panthers
31:45
players. Like,
31:47
Florida pay talking about Whatever whatever
31:49
this game, the percentage of the check that
31:51
this game the responsible for this
31:53
shouldn't shouldn't shouldn't pay him for this game.
31:55
Last night, you run a team in the New Jersey
31:57
Devils who were down to nothing
31:58
with an obsolescence. And I told you, you bet the
32:00
Devils. I'm telling you, I don't think the Panthers
32:02
have any shot. Not
32:03
betting.
32:04
I do think the Maple Leafs are gonna cover their
32:06
puck line, but I mean, it was good
32:08
getting unlucky. I can't tell you how many times
32:10
puck is just set right there. GOL
32:12
is on the ground and why they can put the puck in the
32:14
net. One
32:16
of those nice, man. No.
32:17
Not
32:18
really.
32:18
Not looking at it like that. Just I don't
32:20
trust the Panthers. But
32:21
I trust the leafs. Okay. Carolina Panthers,
32:24
though. Yeah. I so I look at them at fifteen
32:26
to one and say, I like Carolina.
32:28
I like them VSiN. And you're picking ninth
32:30
Mhmm. So was a really elite player.
32:33
You've done so much to bolster your your
32:35
your defense is really really good
32:37
it's a top ten overall
32:38
unit.
32:38
Yeah. Gold is VSiN it shut out
32:41
tonight. That's definitely
32:43
related to the Carolina Panthers. Yeah. They
32:46
displayed how they displayed how they have the outdoor
32:48
series. And you guys had that together.
32:50
And you just invested in What's the name of it? Silverfield.
32:54
Yeah. That's what they played it. Yeah. Mhmm. They
32:56
did. For yeah. It was. It had to be a dope
32:58
place to watch a hockey game. Because they have, like, those
33:00
new, like Yeah. Field level
33:02
suites that they just put in VSiN a
33:04
stadium
33:05
place. Yeah. Are you a Panther's guy? You think VSiN Wright
33:07
was right now? So that's where
33:09
I'm that's where I'm a little It's
33:11
it's hard for me to get there right now in Carolina
33:14
because I was I and so many
33:16
people were Primetime Mhmm. -- and then
33:18
it became apparent that he lost a fastball
33:20
just was unable to develop the offensive
33:23
line the way it should have been in Indianapolis given the
33:25
personnel. And look,
33:27
do I think fifteen to VSiN?
33:29
Egon Robinson, that would be the only one I'd look
33:31
at. I there's no I don't bet any of these. It's There's
33:33
my thing my thing my thing is they got
33:35
done 24 an end of the year playing so well.
33:38
And then they spent I think it was a a third
33:40
or fourth on Trevor Hubbard two years
33:42
ago. Mhmm. I'm not mistaken.
33:44
Looking at the history of Reich, though, as as a coach
33:46
who wants
33:46
that dominant. VSiN back, getting Jonathan
33:49
Taylor. If he looks at it and is wowed,
33:51
is that a guy who who sits there at at pick
33:54
number pick number nine and
33:55
says, oh, it's worth the investment even so high. So
33:57
I think because they don't have a
34:00
quarterback, it's gonna be very difficult for them
34:02
to pass on low levels or
34:04
Oh, Anthony Richardson. So you're
34:06
just discounting the same Arnold thing from
34:09
you don't think there's any way
34:11
Carolina.
34:12
I don't think they can sell that to their families.
34:16
I
34:16
don't
34:17
think you're wrong. It's just even
34:19
if they say, we're gonna take Anthony
34:21
Richardson and play Sam Donald and give
34:23
him a year to
34:25
learn. They they have to go VSiN
34:27
those quarterbacks whether they're there or not. Mhmm.
34:29
It's just for for the first time, Donald
34:32
finally, in like a pseudo healthy
34:34
environment, not only his literal like
34:36
his his health, but just the team
34:38
use around the situation, which is weird to
34:40
say about a team that had an interim coach. But he looked
34:42
comfortable. He finally had an offensive line
34:44
that could protect him. His number is super
34:47
small sample size, but he had the best completion percentage
34:49
over expectation of any
34:50
quarterback, final five games of the year.
34:53
I mean, not that I would say that worthy of letting
34:55
the guy If you were to hold your for the Panthers,
34:57
would you want your job security? Because he
34:59
just got a whole staff fire. Remember
35:01
that they brought him in and replaced bridged
35:03
water? And then they had to bring bakery and
35:05
replace it.
35:06
I I understand that. The you
35:08
have a little bit of when you're just
35:10
hired, if you're Frank Craig little money. It's
35:12
unbelievable. Well, I'm getting gold. He did in his case.
35:14
Every time I say the word Carolina Panther, then the
35:16
Florida Panthers. It's a little not so
35:18
fucking goldy, man. It's unbelievable. I don't
35:20
know. Florida at at least four isolation
35:23
breakaways VSiN Anderson's just I
35:25
mean, he's he's he's the the brick
35:27
wall at his So I just
35:29
went double head stack. I
35:32
was going to look up the the the
35:35
the shots. This is really slow. Here tonight.
35:37
Savers having Man, Craig
35:39
Anderson, perfect twenty three of twenty three,
35:41
and Sergei Babrovsky has seen six
35:43
fewer shots today. Double pad stacked
35:46
if the puppy's up in the air. It
35:48
worked. So anyway, B. John Robinson.
35:50
Panthers, could I see that? Yes? Fifteen
35:53
to one
35:53
way. Right. Right.
35:54
Right. Right. Right. VSiN more like no way. Ten
35:56
to one is what Sean's looking at for are hypothetical
35:58
bet. But is it is now available. If you wanted
36:00
to to bet that, at least the DraftKings
36:02
offering that as of right now. Alright. When
36:04
we come back, final segment, we
36:07
will conclude. Our our thoughts are the games in progress
36:09
right now. Taking to some other news and
36:11

38:53
It's starting with Sean waking up I mean --
38:56
Yeah. --
38:56
I would enjoy walk rocking out with you.
38:58
Yeah. You've just been a blast.
38:59
Did you get updating your
39:00
VSiN
39:02
your Knicks game? I did. Yes.
39:05
The Knicks who was I was looking at there,
39:07
catching seven and a half in game in the first half down
39:09
by by fourteen have got it back
39:12
to it in two. And this has basically been VSiN
39:14
possession game now. Now, the majority of
39:17
third quarter got it to it in four and a half.
39:19
So Wizards' eighties, eighty eight's,
39:21
Knicks' eighty six. And
39:24
as of now, again, there's still the whole quarter to
39:26
go, Sean. But I feels like it was a, you know,
39:28
a well timed thought out process on
39:30
the looking at the end game wager. Just
39:32
for, you know, for talking about game flow and everything,
39:34
but Knicks have gotten back into it. Julius
39:36
Randle tonight. Thirty eight
39:38
points. Fourteen of twenty three from the
39:40
field in twenty nineties. Could still be a
39:42
laker? Good stuff. I was gonna
39:44
say this. Cal's
39:46
not handling the back to back well. They gave me
39:49
eighty one in the first
39:50
half. I'm not a math genius, but that's on pace
39:52
for one sixty two. It's a lot. It's
39:55
a lot. That is. Eighty one
39:57
fifty seven So I
39:59
always love looking at these box scores where it's like somebody
40:01
who barely plays has a terrific plus
40:04
minus. Carus Lambert, minus
40:06
sixteen and seven minutes. Wow. How's that
40:08
even how do you even do that? How's that
40:10
even possible? The
40:12
the big and it really hasn't been one player, but Trey
40:14
Young has been good tonight eighteen points and fourteen
40:16
minutes. In
40:17
that respect. I think four four
40:19
or five guys in double digits. Very
40:21
innovative and play the best game. What was next
40:23
fault? It was Coast McMillan. Come on.
40:26
At angle. First game post Oh. Coach
40:28
firing. And
40:29
Kales on a back to back. We probably missed that one.
40:32
I guess that's what happens when your twenty
40:34
nine and thirty team, Atlanta, and you are so untrustworthy.
40:37
But you are you are
40:38
right. You're when as you said that, is it left
40:41
your mouth, I was like No.
40:44
We missed the that's okay.
40:45
We don't, you know, a lot of games. We don't we don't hit
40:47
them all. I don't
40:47
want any bad Carmel because I need miracles in
40:50
hockey. So
40:51
That's that's fair. I think your miracles. We'll
40:54
get those. Yeah.
40:55
They always I'm not necessarily in the league's game, but
40:57
I'm buying the miracle of the In some other VSiN. The
40:59
Milwaukee Bucks VSiN 3. Miami
41:01
Heat fifty six at halftime. In a game where the
41:03
Honest Under Koopa came back from injury
41:06
very surprisingly tonight, he only played the first six
41:08
minutes of the game.
41:09
When's the last time a team scored two hundred points NBA
41:11
game? Does that happen?
41:14
That is what my Google searches for. Okay.
41:16
NBA I mean, because
41:18
I feel like we have Some of these
41:21
teams feel like they're I don't think it's ever happened. No.
41:23
It has. has never happened. Troy, in
41:25
nineteen eighty three, got to one hundred and eighty six
41:27
against Denver. Boom. One eighty six,
41:29
one eighty four. I think that game went
41:31
over. And Atlanta's
41:32
on pace for one eighty two. One
41:34
sixty. I mean, one sixty two. Yeah. I'm showing,
41:36
like, thirty eight points 24
41:38
Small, small
41:39
middle. Small,
41:40
mid, small middle. I mean, like, John said, guess
41:42
her in game team tells us Yeah. I VSiN, get
41:45
me over one
41:46
one Over one sixty two under one eighty
41:48
VSiN Small bill. We'll we'll we'll
41:51
go with it that way. So
41:53
those are all basically the main games in progress.
41:55
Right? Now with the the hornets on top of the
41:57
timber rolls by seven early second
41:59
quarter, the the and you look at how that
42:02
game went off, walls were laying seven. So that's
42:04
a if you if you liked Minnesota, a
42:06
pretty game wanted to get a better number. Well, now
42:08
I mean, you're only laying two and a half there,
42:10
but that's again, that's typical
42:12
as you kind of throw into that Atlanta bucket
42:15
of for as much as Atlanta is much
42:17
more talented. Mhmm. VSiN, that those
42:19
are similar teams in the way they look good one
42:21
night, look like they have no idea what they're doing the next
42:23
night, so not that one that I would jump in on. Temporarily.
42:25
It's now down by ten. At home. And
42:27
then the the bulls are just destroying
42:30
the nets right now. Forty one twenty two. Demar
42:32
DeRosa did come back into the lineup tonight for Chicago.
42:34
Twelve and a half point live
42:35
favorites. This was a game that went off. Bulls minus
42:38
two tonight, but the Nets they they didn't show
42:40
up.
42:41
Yeah. My boy, Kim Thomas.
42:43
You were really high in my night. he
42:45
not
42:46
doing much tonight. It doesn't look like yeah.
42:48
No. Not doing much at least.
42:49
Hard to have a great game when the team told us
42:51
twenty two right now. I would say so.
42:53
Eleven minutes left from the sea. He has two
42:55
points off the bench eight minutes. Yeah. It's about it.
42:57
Now Spencer Dinwiddie comes
42:59
in. Everybody was very complimentary of what his audition
43:01
would mean. No points ten minutes over
43:03
three from the field
43:05
minus. What's ironic is if the playoffs started
43:07
right now, Brooklyn's in.
43:09
Yeah. Enable. I mean, sift
43:10
seed. They will be in. Yeah.
43:13
That's why I was wondering, time the other
43:15
day about where Philadelphia is at,
43:17
would they dare try to play themselves into
43:19
that into that four five. If
43:22
they felt like they could
43:24
at least match up physically with Boston in
43:26
a second round and they could get Brooklyn, would
43:29
then avoid a potential like a Miami
43:31
team who, as much as it looks ugly
43:33
right now, it's a Miami team. You just know -- Right.
43:36
-- you just know is gonna be a
43:38
a total pace You know
43:40
what? -- to get into the oh,
43:42
well, the play out. It's
43:43
six who avoid the playing tournament. And then you have
43:45
four that go into the play. And so eight teams ultimately
43:47
are in. Right. Seven through ten go into the
43:49
play VSiN tournament. Could the Knicks hang
43:51
on to the sixth? That's the other It could
43:53
could burkeland in the next each hang on to those
43:56
top six
43:57
slots. And Will the Quinn Snyder? That sounds
43:59
like it's gonna be Quinn Snyder.
44:00
You gotta bet Atlanta. Right? Atlanta to win at
44:02
all? I mean, don't
44:05
know about
44:05
that. But do you do you believe it
44:07
in Atlanta team that's a game below my father and get
44:09
Schneider. They went twenty seven and eleven with
44:11
Nate MacMillan when he was brought in mid season
44:13
a couple years ago. Did they did they get
44:15
hot and find themselves? Because it's only, you know,
44:17
it's only few games. That they're back at, at
44:19
least, getting into that top six seeding
44:22
VSiN fifty to one if you're if you're interested
44:24
by the
44:24
way. Yeah. And a and a big old long
44:26
bottom. I'll
44:27
book it Okay. You you let me know how
44:29
that goes for you. Though
44:31
that least from the eastern conference, that's an interesting
44:33
perspective to think about. The other game that is
44:35
is coming up in a little bit, this is just after
44:37
ten PM on the East Coast VSiN the
44:40
the big night game on VSiN. Unfortunately,
44:42
no shagel just Alexander tonight. Remains
44:44
out of the gate. With with the thunder.
44:47
He was just downgraded to out about fifteen
44:49
minutes ago. So this line is now on
44:51
the move if you're late looking to get in on some late
44:53
night NBA and that is now
44:55
out nine and a half across the board. Even with
44:58
Phoenix still without Kevin Durant, they he's
45:00
back at practice this week, expect 24 come back soon
45:03
But yeah. Now you get a
45:05
a kind of a trendy OKC team. A
45:07
lot of the numbers guys love the thunder,
45:09
but without SGA, That's tough.
45:11
And he was ex you know, he wasn't expected to be
45:13
and was eight at VSiN. We're now up to nine and
45:16
a half. So you
45:18
wanna really take a stab, Sean. You
45:20
you'd have to be so you'd have to be searching at that
45:22
point. You think the sun's a broom?
45:25
I would two years ago, they looked like the
45:29
the next the
45:31
next team in the west. Like, they're two years ago,
45:33
they looked like, okay, they're coming. Like, they're
45:35
legit. They're coming. They're gonna be here. They
45:37
got Booker. They got VSiN. Like, they got the role
45:39
of players. And last year, they kind
45:42
of fizzled. they have the Rocky off season.
45:44
On the court, the ownership,
45:47
you know, got
45:49
a new owner, the first thing he does, he says,
45:51
the owner. I'm bringing Isaiah Thomas in
45:53
to have a prominent voice VSiN
45:56
the organization. I mean, because he's
45:58
done so good in the past, you know, with these
46:01
these positions. Yeah.
46:02
Eat. My God, are they
46:04
for real? I mean, can I believe in them? like
46:06
Marty Williams. I love Devin Booker.
46:08
I kinda like KD sometimes. I
46:11
feel like Aiden is a good player but
46:13
kind of a fish out of water VSiN some
46:15
ways, you know. He's way more
46:18
from a skill standpoint than just a role player.
46:20
But, like, for them to be their best, I feel like
46:22
he needs to be a role player kinda,
46:24
you know and and for them I I just
46:27
Are they for real?
46:30
You have to consider Phoenix a legitimate
46:33
finals candidate when they have Kevin
46:35
Durant now able to come into the fold
46:38
extend plays with his three point
46:40
shooting, spread the floor for other stars
46:42
like a Devin Booker who needs space to operate
46:45
VSiN, allow a post player like
46:47
Deandre VSiN, the room to operate without
46:49
guys just clamping on his back and not having
46:51
to respect the three point shooting. You have to consider
46:54
Phoenix a legitimate threat. Okay. But health
46:56
is always the question mark.
46:59
How many games has Chris Paul missed
47:01
a playoff career? How many games
47:03
is Kevin Durant failed to be healthy for
47:05
down the stretch in his playoff. Callbacks. It's
47:08
why the second favorite everything
47:11
on paper in the way that team will will
47:13
look when they're all fully healthy. It looks
47:16
really, really strong. I wouldn't be surprised if they're
47:18
in the NBA finals. Don't wanna bet that though
47:20
at plus four twenty five doing it
47:21
VSiN. I just don't, but you have you can't say
47:23
they're not for real. Right. But
47:26
that's why the number is priced the way
47:27
it is. True?
47:29
If you're making me pick a finals match up right now,
47:31
I would go. VSiN
47:34
bucks.
47:36
RE Match.
47:37
Oh. Alec
47:37
If you've a guarantee maybe Chris Middleton is
47:39
gonna be healthy. I'll take the bucks.
47:42
Okay. Always subtlety. Have you seen him?
47:44
He's getting
47:45
there. Oh, I've been hearing there for I'm hearing there for
47:47
two years. He's getting there.
47:49
He's getting there, Sean. How much did I
47:51
promise? He's getting there. They have to have
47:53
him. Patience is a virtue of it. I yes. It's
47:55
reason why they lost 24 Boston
47:56
-- Yeah. -- Boston
47:57
City's conference finals. They have to have
47:59
him. Anyway, through It's
48:01
been a blast.
48:02
Yeah, man. Enjoy it, like, so they have enjoyed it.
