00:00Tonight, Madison Square Garden, we could see a 2-2 series once again here
00:03if the Spurs win going back to San Antonio, and we'll see what happens.
00:07But we love to watch it.
00:08It's taking place tonight, 8.30 p.m. Eastern.
00:11The San Antonio Spurs fresh off that victory, 115-111 over the Knicks in game number three.
00:16They'll try to do it again tonight.
00:18Underdogs, yes, they are.
00:19Depending on where you're shopping, you see the graphic, minus 1.5 to minus 2.5.
00:23The total listed at 216.5.
00:26The Garden will be rocking, but as I like to say, Joe, the championship trophy will not be in the
00:31building
00:32as it would have been if the Knicks had won game number three.
00:35Give me a spread line tonight in the world's most famous arena.
00:39Well, Donnie, I mean, pretty much exactly what we got for game number three, right?
00:44So you're going to hover around that 1.5-2 up until tip-off, maybe 215.5, 216.
00:51I will tell you, Donnie, that history tells us that game fours, fatigue starts to set in a little bit,
00:59and defenses tend to get it done.
01:02I believe the average score in game four over the last 11 NBA finals has been right around the 2
01:09.05 mark.
01:10So we have not been getting a whole lot of scoring, shall we say, like we did last one.
01:16But will they blow the whistle or won't they blow the whistle?
01:19I mean, a lot of the reason why the game went over in game three, Donnie, was foul shots.
01:24If they don't fall and the defenses are allowed to do what they're doing,
01:29I would concentrate on the total.
01:31It's a coin flip on who wins it.
01:33I think we all realize that, Donnie.
01:35But the total is interesting.
01:37Do we really think we're going to get in the 220s again with these two teams and the way they
01:42play defense?
01:43I think that is the interesting number tonight.
