00:00drs let's start though with the home of the reigning nba champs that being the boston celtics
00:05now just a 10 and a half point favorite for game number two inside td garden because jason tatum
00:11is listed as doubtful slow start for boston in the opening game of this set on sunday they actually
00:18trailed orlando by a point at the break before pulling away in the third quarter holding distance
00:24in the fourth winning by 17 103 86 and that final score is represented in game two's total
00:33playoff basketball brother 196 and a half is the updated over under for game number two oh
00:41that's actually impressive man and also you look at them like that's ridiculous there has to be a
00:47principal play to the over then you realize it's the orlando magic announced the celtics without
00:52their best offensive threat in jason tatum and you actually say like who is going to get to 100
00:57points tonight because up tempo is not what the orlando magic do and the celtics are fine with
01:02saying like we have great defense like you can't score we don't have to score 100 points and still
01:07able to beat you and possibly cover this spread as it points out but if i did have to take a free
01:11like to just get to 200 total like we can't get to 200 total we can't get a 51 50 halftime and feel
01:18like you know what we're actually on pace for this at this point but i still don't get those vibes here
01:22so i'm trying to look at ways to play this game because the thought process behind it for me is
01:26the celtics are better than the magic we know that tatum or no tatum but also are we really led to
01:32believe like the orlando magic are so bad that i can remove the single best player from the celtics
01:37and they still win by double digits in a game over the magics like why would you even play
01:41games three or games four in orlando at this point or just how long we're going to sit tatum out
01:45because you do understand that if they're in the magic win tatum will be back sooner than later but
01:49could you rest tatum for two maybe three games if you generally don't need them and that's what
01:53the odds makers at the fan's little sportsbook band are telling us right now you don't need
01:57jason tatum you're still a double digit favorite for me i look at this and i'm trying to find ways to
02:02say is it a prop bet like bunk carl 26 and a half franz fogger 21 and a half the only offensive
02:07threats they have or do you sort of lend yourself to go towards a boston celtics prop jalen brown 22 and a
02:12half where he can shine now that jason tatum is out or maybe porzingis steps up or derrick white's
02:17dropping triples or payton pritchard now coming off the bench at only 11 and a half points i'm
02:21fighting myself in this game because we're not used to seeing games in the mid 190s as a total
02:26with one team's best player out like shouldn't you look at that and be like well yes it has to
02:30be the magic i have to take them at 10 and a half
02:32you
