00:03 Is the next starting lineup
00:04 might have OG Anadomy and Josh Hart.
00:07 It might be without both.
00:09 Right now, it feels like Hart starts
00:14 and is limited to what you would expect
00:17 out of Hart minutes wise.
00:19 So 45 would probably be what you would expect,
00:23 non-blowout.
00:24 Maybe he can only give you a 32, maybe.
00:28 OG, I think is gonna play off the bench.
00:33 That's my thought.
00:34 I could be wrong.
00:36 The thing is, because we don't even have these guys
00:39 and their numbers yet, it didn't impact anything.
00:42 I am very excited to see when those are posted.
00:45 If by chance before I'm off today,
00:47 I'll let you know when those numbers start to pour in,
00:49 I'll continue to check.
00:50 Maybe I've missed them.
00:52 Feel free to tweet at me if you've seen them
00:54 @TheKevinWalsh and we'll discuss more
00:56 the actual numbers that they post on Hart and OG.
00:59 I just think it's difficult for the books
01:01 if they don't know if these guys
01:01 are gonna be playing starting minutes limited.
01:03 It's just really tough to tell in a game seven.
01:06 But I trust the Knicks offense here
01:08 in this basketball game.
01:10 And I'm gonna play their team total over 105 and a half.
01:12 I know game sevens are low scoring.
01:16 So do the books.
01:18 So when you show up to this total
01:19 and you see 207 and a half,
01:22 that's the books dropping it because it's a game seven.
01:26 So now that if you're aware of,
01:30 oh, this is going to play lower scoring, right?
01:33 And you wanna just come in and bet the under,
01:37 you might not be betting your best number.
01:39 And it's why I'm willing to play a Knicks team
01:40 total over 105 and a half.
01:43 Pacers defense is not good.
01:45 And the Knicks have scored 120 plus points
01:48 in all three games in this series at home.
01:51 So even if that's going to drop off,
01:53 is it gonna drop off 15, 20 points?
01:58 I struggle to think that's the case here.
02:01 So I'm gonna play over 105 and a half
02:02 with that Knicks team total.
02:04 On the Pacers side of it,
02:06 I am playing Aaron Neesmith over 16 and a half points,
02:10 rebounds and assists.
02:11 This is a really nice number he's gone over more often
02:14 than not so far in this post season here,
02:17 where I was tempted by his points prompt.
02:19 It's a nine and a half.
02:20 He's landed eight in three straight games.
02:23 I think he can break through that number.
02:25 The thing is he's been also strong
02:26 in his rebound and assist category.
02:28 That's why it's worth bringing it all together here.
02:31 It wouldn't surprise me if Neesmith
02:32 can finally hit two threes once again,
02:36 get you to 12, 13 points.
02:39 The RA will take care of this.
02:41 But he also does have 10 rebound plus assist potential.
02:45 If he could avoid foul trouble,
02:47 he's a 35, maybe 40 minute guy tonight
02:51 against the New York Knicks,
02:52 having to guard Jalen Brunson and do what he can.
