00:00DRS now in the Eastern Conference the New York Knicks the three seed will host the Detroit
00:05Pistons the sixth seed come Saturday again the odds makers are expecting this to be rather
00:10comfortable and easy for the Knickerbockers minus 430 to win the series outright shortest to do it
00:17in five games plus 190 the Knicks to win it in five plus 245 in a two and a half game favorite
00:24in that series spread that would mean if New York is going to capture that prize they either have to
00:31sweep Detroit or win it in five Donnie much like you I don't think it's that easy now I'm not saying
00:38the Pistons pull off the outright upset in advance to the Eastern Conference semis but I do think I
00:44do think Detroit can at least get this back to the Motor City for a sixth game it's the second playoff
00:51bet that I have so far Clippers outright on the series spread or the series outright number
00:56against the Denver Nuggets and the Detroit Pistons getting two and a half in the series spread
01:02hoping this just gets to six I think the Pistons can provide a little bit of a spark and be a thorn
01:08in the side of New York yes and maybe they can and also understand this too sometimes you get into
01:13the playoffs with a team that's not used to being in the playoffs at least recently with the Detroit
01:17Pistons that you're playing with house money at this point you play free out here there's no stress
01:22you're not like oh my goodness if we don't win this I'm going to be traded out of town my head
01:26coach is going to be fired that's not where they're at and I do think we're going to get some great
01:29efforts here now is an interesting way to approach this series like you see the plus 340 price let me
01:34just take a look to see what we have in the series because what I want to do is see what that plus
01:40money number could be so I'm trying to scroll down all right there we go so plus 245 Ben opening night
01:45here on Saturday in the garden the Pistons would you be better off looking at that game and saying
01:51boy if they come to play in that one and they can steal that one that's worthwhile for the series
01:56itself or are you sitting back and saying instead of betting let's just say Ben the series price
02:01I don't know if they can win game number one but why would I bet the two and a half if I don't think
02:05they can win game number two they're down oh two going back at that point where that price point
02:09probably going to be around that 250 260 price that might be an interesting way to bet this because
02:14you're right the Knicks should be able to handle their business they're priced appropriately we're
02:18just trying to thread the needle as what's the best one to do because after an oh two start in
02:23the series for the Pistons you're not feeling so good about even getting plus two and a half but if
02:27you take a look at game number one and it's like wow Knicks by 10 points 15 points I don't know if
02:32they can win this series you know the Pistons and that zigzag theory that everybody loves the NBA
02:36playoffs you got to win game number two you can't go back oh two into your own building and maybe
02:41that's the time that you take that big plus money swing as opposed to the plus two and a half just
02:45some food for thought on how this might play out for me and as well as you probably thinking
02:49Detroit's got to get one in New York between games one and two to actually be a factor in this series
