00:00Okay, we talked about it during Just the Picks last night on the show, yesterday on the show, about how
00:05betting on New York was a must.
00:08And look, the Pistons were undefeated.
00:10They did not have Jalen Dern.
00:13He was out.
00:14But, I mean, the third quarter, second quarter, the Knicks came to life.
00:18They were down at the end of the first quarter, and the second and the third quarter, they just dominated.
00:22They ran away with it.
00:23A 111-97 victory over the Pistons.
00:26The Knicks weren't going to open up 0-4.
00:28Okay, the defending champs, they weren't going to go 0-4.
00:31Brunson had 23.
00:32Cat had 27-20.
00:34They outscored the Pistons in the second and the third quarters, 63-25.
00:39Okay, so that's back-to-back days now in the NBA where teams with zero wins outperformed by a ways
00:48their opponent, who was supposed to be the better team record-wise, right?
00:53So the Pistons were 3-0.
00:55Now they're 3-1.
00:56The Golden State Warriors played the Denver Nuggets, who were 2-1, and the Warriors were looking at an 0
01:03-4 start, and we talked about it yesterday, but, you know, the 0-4 start, that would have been the
01:08first time the Warriors would have been 0-4 with Steph Curry in the NBA.
01:13And what did they do?
01:15They won the game by 30.
01:16They destroyed the Nuggets, and they won the game by 30.
01:22Now, there are some opportunities coming up today, we'll talk about here in just one second, with teams that have
01:27zero wins that are in action tonight.
01:30But last night, you saw the Lakers lose to the Blazers.
01:35The Lakers, uh-oh, good start, but you lose to the Blazers.
01:40All of a sudden, Portland's 3-0.
01:42They're 3-0.
01:43Luka had 41 last night.
01:46John Moran had 23.
01:47Damian Lillard had 21.
01:49Drew Holiday had 22 off the bench in a 136-129 victory for Portland.
01:55The Celtics, on a back-to-back, had to go to overtime against the Brooklyn Nets, and then Jason Tatum,
02:02after all the nonsense about Jalen Brown, and you've got a good PR team, and there's some meal references going
02:11on, he had 40, including the game winner, over the Brooklyn Nets.
02:17I mean, Brooklyn had so many chances in overtime to win that basketball game, they just couldn't close out the
02:21Celtics.
02:22So Boston gets a win, they do not cover by any means.
02:25Boston was a huge favorite in that game.
02:26They do not cover.
02:27They shot 2-of-16 from the three-point line in the first half.
02:32I was on the first-half team total at 59-and-a-half.
02:35It landed 56, and Boston shot 2-of-16 from three, and it still almost got there.
02:41And then the Kings have not won.
02:44They are still over for the season.
02:46The Spurs with a big win.
02:48Wemby goes for 29-10-and-5.
02:52Champagne goes for 26 with eight threes.
02:55Spurs with a big W, and now the Kings are a team with an over, with a zero in the
03:01win column.
