Speaker 1 (00:15):
Yeah, sir, you're back with another edition of Fast Break.
Bets was in my betting Burgers. You know't me, no voice,
no guys, Federal trail from a junior here at York. Sir,

(00:49):
all right, no bing bong today, No bing Bong. Knicks lost.
But that's okay because instead of talking about the Knicks,
I would like to talk about my other team. And
I know it's not basketball, and this is a basketball podcast. However,
we all watch football. Okay, maybe we all don't watch football,

(01:12):
but I assume a large majority of u's watch football,
and plus it's my show. So the New York Giants
schedule release video came out, and I'm just so disappointed
to hear how many people are really really upset with
the video. I thought it was good. Okay, So if

(01:36):
you haven't seen it already, you're probably about to go
and try to look up the video to see what
I'm referencing. You're gonna see. It looks like, you know,
kind of like the opening of like a reality show,
like a Love Island or The Circle. That's what it
really reminded me of. It reminded me of how The
Circle opens up and they introduced all the castmates. I

(01:57):
think it's like a Love Island. I don't haven't watched
Love Island. It's not one of my shows, but I
feel like it probably opened like that's probably how I
would envision Love Island opens up. So maybe it's a
Love Island reference, but it's clearly like a reality show
type of reference here talking about beat the schedule and
so they have all the different characters playing representing the teams,
and they're really funny. It's this lady that it opens up.

(02:19):
This lady and she's talking about my name is Dynasty,
I mean Destiny, and it's she's the Chiefs and she's
talking about, Yeah, my favorite animal is zebras. I love
the stripes. Like how the Chiefs be cheating with the
ress all the time. You had the guy his name
is Joey. He was the Eagles, but he tried to
spell Joey and he was like j e O why

(02:39):
and he spelled it wrong because of all the Eagles
fan messing it up. The Commander's guy was this mama's boy,
Jay and Daniels his mom. It was a mama's boy
and he didn't like he had a bunch of names.
His name was like will Bob Rob all this stuff
like it was funny. Man, I don't care, Like I
was looking in the comments and a whole bunch of
people didn't like it. And I just want I want

(03:00):
you guys to just please entertain me. Go look at
the video and just tell me what you think, because
I thought it was creative. I don't know why they
hate the video so much. This has really been racking
my mind for like the past couple of hours, as
you can tell. And I mean, the Knicks didn't didn't
look good in that second half, so I got even
more time to think about it. But man, they had

(03:20):
a whole bunch. It was an old lady. She was
the Packers that she was like I was in long
term relationships talking about the quarterbacks that they've had, Brett Farv,
Aaron Rodgers. But now I finally found love. Like that
was good. I don't care. The Raiders guy was like
in this big scary Raiders stuff, but he was a
big softy. Actually, the forty guy was an only man.

(03:41):
It was good. I don't care what nobody say. It
was good. I thought it was good. Go check it out.
Tell me who your favorite character was in the comments
and tell me if you thought it was a good
video by the Giants. I thought it was a good video.
So a lot of people I don't like Giants fans,
Giants fans are mean. That was a good video. I
thought it was fun and plus the Giants didn't do
anything in your all right, sorry to waste four minutes

(04:03):
of your time talking about the Giant schedule release video.
Here's what happened yesterday. I swept beautiful stuff there, Josh
hard over twenty and a half. P R. Mitchell Robinson
dominated on the glass. He had six rebounds in like

(04:25):
mid second quarter. I'm pretty sure this was That was
the first half. Cash Peyton Pritcher shot the ball horribly
to start, but then he started to catch fire in
the second half. Peyton Pritchard gets over three to two
and have threes. I'm sorry there so sweet, three sweet
and look at that. This is what I was talking about.
We had a good week last week. I'm now up

(04:46):
on the week. This week had knock on wood real quick.
Don't like chicks and stuff. But now I look at
the account. The account looks great, and we're go going
into WNBA tip off on Friday. I'm ready. I'm ready.
I am completely ready. All right, let's talk about the

(05:09):
what I like in the standalone game here. We're getting
to that part of the NBA season now, but we're
gonna have one game a day standalone game here in
the NBA on a Thursday, and then Friday the floodgates
open and WNBA starts and we will start have a
lot more plays on the show here. So before I

(05:29):
get to that, though, gotta make sure that I remind
everybody about the Dnis Rodman sign jersey giveaway. If you

good stuff there very much good stuff. All right, let's

(06:13):
see here, we've got two plays in the Oklahoma City
Thunder on the road, going and play the Denver Nuggets.
Okay SE's nane five to sixteen and a half is
a total. This is game six. Okay See is up
three games to two, have a chance to close out
Denver on their home floor here. So if you so

(06:37):
this is what I predicted. I did predict that, okay See,
we get it done on Denver's home floor in six.
I took Denver plus two and a half games for
the series. We've already cashed that. Now I'm looking to
see if we get the final part of this. So
I do think okay See wins the game. I think
it's gonna be tough. I think it's gonna take inn

(06:59):
SGA effort at the end of the game, in the
fourth quarter. So whatever SGA has going on in the
early part of the game, and I don't want to
play SGA, so I didn't play SGA today. I was
very close to doing it. But SGA has not had
good games in Denver. Is better games against Dever have
come at home than on the road. But I do

(07:19):
think that this could be an interesting SGA game in
the fourth quarter, much like Game five, honestly, where he
might be a little bit slow throughout the whole part
of the game, but then in the end he's able
to pick it up because they have to win a
tight game. Year. I think Denver is going to be
right there on their heels this entire game. I think
this is going to be a defensive game. You saw
last time I took the over and that didn't work out.

(07:40):
It actually flew under it, and I was sitting there
scratching and clawing trying to get to that over at
the end of the game. And that was at home. Now,
I mean at home for Okay. See, now we're in Denver,
where the altitude is there, the pace slowed down the
last two games we were here where we saw two ugly, ugly,
ugly basketball games, and I think we could see a
little bit like that here today, where we see a

(08:01):
little bit higher defense, slower on the pace, ugly game,
half court offense, and less turnovers as well. I think
that's gonna be one really really big thing for Denver.
They're gonna try to limit the turnovers the best they
can here in this opportunity playing against this OKAC team.
So I do like okay See here, but I can't

(08:22):
bet them. I think that I can see either way,
whether okay See gets the win, whether Denver gets the win.
I think this game goes under. I really do think
this is more of a defensive game. I think that
they limit the turnovers they play in the half court.
It's not a bunch of fast what's the word. I'm
looking for a bunch of turnovers that turn into quick

(08:45):
offense and a whole bunch of points and push pace
and all of that. No, I think this is gonna
be more of a slug it out, ugly, ugly game
here again, So I'm gonna go under here. I told
myself I would bet the over when they're in Okay
seeing the under when they were in Denver. It didn't
work out last time, I will admit, but I'm still
gonna stick to it because I still think the handicap

(09:05):
is there and if anything, that game and Okay See
going under, so it gives me even better feeling of Hey,
this might just continue to be an under series. In
the first couple of games, were you know just that,
And now we're gonna see We've seen three straight unders here.
I think we might see one more. I think this
is a little bit slower of a game. Not gonna lie.
I did not put as much as I put on

(09:29):
my second play on that one, but I did still
bet it under to sixteen and a half for Denver
and Oka s all right, second play, and I mean,
I feel like I'm gonna just give you a second.
It's a player prop. If I've been continuously betting the
Okac and Denver series, what player prop? Now? Granted you

(09:52):
may not get the exact prop, but what player am
I betting right now? I'm gonna just give you a
second to yourself to think about that and just throw
out an answer. And then if you want to throw
out a couple of answers just to kind of cover
your basis, do that. Nobody's gonna tell because you're by
yourself right now. But take your second and just guess
what player I'm about to say right now, because I
think it should be easy, but you know, I'm just curious,

(10:14):
and then you can let me know in the comments. Also,
if you got it right, I'll give you a few
seconds starting now. Dude, do do do do do do
do do doo duh it was Isaiah Hart's Stein, Like,
come on, I'm not finna thinke you wait no longer.

(10:36):
Of course, I bet Isaiah hart is stined. I am
stopped if you thought it was anybody else, but Isaiah
Harten is stinted at this point. All over, Isaiah heart
is stine here. And so this time, however, I'm gonna
take a different I'm trying to continue to learn to
grow and make sure that I hit this right because
I could bet him, bet the wrong prop and it

(10:58):
might not work out for me. However, Isaiah Hartenstein, I
am taking him for over twenty and a half points
and rebound. So I'm playing the points and rebounds today
for Isaiah Hartenstein. Now, he didn't have the biggest points
game in the series when you look at what he
was doing scoring wise, but he still had an impact.

(11:19):
He still had a role. You look at what he
did over the course of the series. He had fifteen
in that last game that was really really good. You
go at Denver and he had eight and ten, and
then he had the fourteen to twelve which was before
that in the first two games. So he's been okay,
he's added his level of scoring. It's not like he's
not a factor, Like they look for him, they give
him opportunities, and like I said, I've told you all

(11:39):
the time, Denver has a problem inside the paint, and
they just continuously leave Isaiah Hartstein wide open to get
a lot of stuff done. Like it was a wide
open lot towards the end of the game last last game,
Like they really just forget about him defensively, and he's
able to sneak around and get some extra points in
these lines are really really low. And then he's such
a good rebounder. I mean, the rebounding numbers shot up

(12:02):
with how ugly the game was in Denver last two rounds,
and all the chances for rebounds they shot up for him.
He had ten rebounds in game three. He had fourteen
rebounds in game four. So this is it. The assists
haven't been there because the offense wasn't there on the
road from all the auxiliary pieces, and a lot of
the times when he's getting assists, he's passing back out

(12:24):
the three point shooters, and the threes just weren't falling
for them as they were at home like they are
on the road. So I think that let's get this
assist out of there. Let's just go with the points
and the rebounds. I think he has his little role
that he can get his eight to twelve points and
then I like a good rebound game from him as well,
and that gets us there. So I like Isaiah Hartstein

(12:46):
yet again. I mean, he's been so good so us.
He's gone over twenty and a half points in rebounds
in his last I'm sorry proa bet he sheet. He's
gone over this number in his last seven of his
last eight games against the Denver Nuggets, and the one
that he did not go over, he had exactly twenty
twenty five point nine. Is the projection over there at

(13:09):
betting pros. It's a five star play. And I mean,
come on, he's been so good for us, why am
I gonna stop? So I'm going yet again, Isaiah Hartenstein
over twenty and a half points and rebounds. And there
we are. This is what we're going with Denver. Okay,
see under two sixteen and a half points in Isaiah
Hardenstein to go over twenty and a half points and rebounds, hopefully,

(13:30):
hopefully hopefully. Good more stuff here, good more stuff. I
just made that up. I love it. Good more stuff here,
for Isaiah Hartenstein and we get a really good day
and then again the count is fat. It looks good
and we're gonna fire off on some WNBA because I had.
I feel good. I feel good to start the season, honestly,
and I'm ready to see what these teams really look

(13:52):
like and see if my assumptions are right. So I'm
at really right, underscore, underscore. Make sure you give me
