00:0012 games in the association last night only a quadruple header slate on this Tuesday in the
00:07NBA but plenty to break down for you here with the two premier NBA
00:12handicappers on the Spiz Grizz Network
00:14DRS and
00:16Myself. All right, Donnie the Lakers on the road
00:19Once again second leg of a road back-to-back five-point win last night in Charlotte over the Hornets
00:24Four points spread in favor of the Lakers tonight in Philadelphia against your 76ers total
00:32216 of course when you are looking at the second leg of a back-to-back for the Lakers in any game in Philadelphia
00:39You need to check the availability report in the prop market so far
00:44We have props for the Brawn James and Anthony Davis for LA
00:48We only have props for Tyrese maxi for Philadelphia
00:52Of course, no Joe Ellen bead and no Paul George thus a four-point spread in favor of LA on the road
00:59Yes
00:59some CLV already if you had the Philadelphia 76ers this morning as much as getting five and a half now down to four currently live
01:05Here at the fan blue sportsbook other outlets been now showing even three and a halves
01:08Which doesn't really let you in on the Philadelphia 76ers on what we're expecting from them
01:12It's what are we expecting from the Los Angeles Lakers playing last night in Charlotte 80 at a 40 and 20 game last night now
01:19yeah, this is one of those games where you press it down with your vets because you should be able to beat the Philadelphia 76ers as
01:25Opposed to the Lakers going to Boston and getting nine points
01:28Why waste a back-to-back here and play those athletes?
01:31But also you understand that you played your starters last night in Charlotte knowing that you had a back-to-back in Philadelphia
01:37That's the game you chose
01:37So the chances of LeBron James and or Anthony Davis being at least one of those being out does increase and those lines are telling
01:44You that as well. So I took the earlier five and a half this morning
01:47So if it's still sitting at the four number on the fan blue sportsbook
01:50I still think that makes sense the lineup for the Sixers estimated tonight
01:53It's not even a good one maxi uber a Gordon council the fourth and yabu Sally
01:58But we're just worried about jet lag from a veteran team and will they be all there once this game tips off?
02:04That's why that lines drop it
02:06Yeah, completely agreed ERS. And when you look at the 76ers season, they have to start winning games at a certain point
02:13They are 10 games below 500. They are 17 and 27. Yes, they have won two in a row
02:19But if the season ended today, they would be a game and a half
02:23Behind the Bulls for what would be the 10th spot that fourth and final even in the Eastern Conference
02:29Play in tournament. There is too much talent on the roster
02:33Even if that roster hardly ever placed together for the Sixers not to make the play in tournament at
02:40Bare minimum, I would agree. I think this line is going to continue to work toward Philadelphia
02:46One of the difficult things we do in breaking down NBA games at 1030 even at 7 p.m
02:51Eastern time for when that game is supposed to tip because so much could change the Lakers might say right now
02:57They're going to play both ad and LeBron James, but they wake up as they travel to Philadelphia overnight get ready for shoot around
03:04They're like, yeah, you know, I'm I'm alright
03:07We're Sean yabu sell the on the other side, although LeBron might want some revenge from that poster throughout the Olympics
03:14I agree with you
03:15I think the right side would be looking at Philadelphia right now
03:18But the 76ers can't just be catching points all that much more often Lakers have won four straight there eight games above 500
03:26They've won six of their last seven
03:28They have covered in four of those six wins for one and one against the spread in those six victories
03:35Lakers not playing bad basketball right now in 42 and 23 out of Anthony Davis last night
03:41Against the Charlotte Hornets again, only four games in the NBA tonight
03:45Let's go to another the Bucs on the second leg of a road back-to-back
03:48Laying five and a half in the Rose City against the Trailblazers 229 and a hook is the total tonight yesterday
03:56Milwaukee in Salt Lake beating up on the worst team in the Western Conference the Utah Jazz winning
04:028125 110 covering in that game winning by 15 on the road
04:06Yeah, you're taking a look also at another instance Ben. Were you trying to line up and say?
04:11All right, where's the advantages here for the home team?
04:13Well, the simple advantages is Portland's not a great team, but they're home
04:16They're rested and ready the Milwaukee Bucs once again played last night way more talented roster
04:20No doubt and even in the anticipated starting lot of tonight Lillard Jackson Prince Anthony Cooper and Lopez you take a look at the Blazers
04:26Simons Kamara Denny Avicia Grant and also a so from eight and excuse me, DeAndre Aiton
04:33but if you are looking at again this blind open up six and a half now dipping to five and a half and I do
04:38Agree with that movement because back-to-backs are always tricky as you pointed out
04:42We don't know all that information till later in the afternoon, but the lines moving accordingly you're saying well
04:47Yes, you have a built-in advantage and maybe if one of those starters is not playing tonight extra advantage for the home team
04:53That's rested and ready for the game
04:55I'll take the points once again with the Portland Trail Blazers in this game banking on a little bit of jet lag and maybe a
05:00Starter out that Portland will be full gas on their offense
05:04The Blazers not the best team this year 12 games below
05:08517 and 29 third-worst mark in the Western Conference, but they have been very competitive
05:14They've been an underdog now in 42 of 46 total games this year
05:1924 17 and 1 against the spread we would expect to see Damian Lillard tonight as you see the headline his
05:26second return back to his former long-standing home in
05:31Portland Milwaukee playing better basketball since the start of the NBA Cup winning said NBA Cup crown now
05:3826 and 18 the Bucs victorious in eight of their last ten
05:43Houston huge win last night inside TD Garden almost a prove-it game to say hey
05:49We're a legitimate Western Conference and NBA championship
05:53Contender now the Rockets on the road again
05:56Still laying seven in a change of venue against the Hawks
06:00But that line working up even more in favor of the Rockets total at 227 DRS. What do you like?
06:07Yeah, taking a look at the anticipated lineups there. You still have young Daniels crazy some names a bit
06:13Crazy, how about that name here and Risa? Shea and O'Connell? Oh my goodness, man
06:17That's a tough pronunciation line up all the way through for the Hawks
06:20But then you have Van Vliet green Thompson Brooks and Shangoon you're looking at the usual suspects there for the Rockets
06:25But I gotta tell you
06:26It's not as if it's like the MO of the night is just take the home teams here because they're rested and ready not as good
06:32As the other team, but if there was one of those games where you say boy
06:36We're high-fiving and relaxing and sort of smelling their roses
06:40That would be the Houston Rockets who again are back-to-back on the road after an unbelievable performance in Boston
06:47I just would ride with the Atlanta Hawks here now getting seven points live
06:51Something has to give maybe Trey Young's out or somebody extra would be missing
06:54But this is one of those perfect scenarios where not often do you see the head the public? Yes, the Rockets have arrived
06:59Hold on. They just lost the Hawks. This is what happens in sports
07:03Why it's so tough to keep those winning streaks going. Give me the seven points with the Hawks
07:07Yeah, I think it's hard to fault DRS
07:10It's not like the Rockets are just playing the second leg of a back-to-back which we have mentioned numerous times and it's on the road
07:16And it's difficult the Rockets won in the final seconds last night against the reigning NBA champs trying to prove
07:23They were up that echelon on a last-second floater from a man Thompson
07:28Talk about riding the high and a slight come down in the ATL
07:31And one of my favorite trends the last few years if the Hawks were an underdog or expected to lose a basketball game
07:39They often lost and they did not cover
07:42Changing this year Atlanta 15 and 12 against the number as a dog
07:46This season Houston one of the best teams in the NBA right now and certainly so in covering numbers
07:51I would agree would take in the points four games in the NBA tonight our last one Golden State at home in San Francisco
07:5912-point favorite DRS against the Utah Jazz again
08:02We mentioned the Jazz second worst team in the NBA worst record in the Western Conference
08:0710 and 34 also playing the second leg of a back-to-back, but a change of venue from Salt Lake to Northern, California
08:15Dubs also need to start winning games much like the Sixers would be on the outside
08:20Of the Western Conference play in tournament if the season closed today
08:24Yeah, look at the opposite of the first three games
08:26We went over where the road team now coming in here saying we had a home game last night
08:30But now we're on the road today
08:31We have the Golden State worries at home, but they're heavily favorite at minus 12, which should seem like a layup
08:36But understand this after the Jazz completed that game last night
08:39They only have three home wins, but they have ten wins on the season
08:42Which means they're a better road team than a home team worries in a win too many points. Give me the jazz
08:48Yeah, Utah as an underdog
08:5143 times out of 40 or games, but not bad covering 23 and 20
08:59against the spread
