Red Zone Energy, real-time reaction, Bed MGM tonight with Brad Evans and Pat Boyle rolls on. I got your name written here in a rose tattoo. Oh, dropkick Murphy's. How you doing? Happy St. Patti's Day. Welcome on back, Bed MGM. The Night Westwood ones sports. He's Brad Evans on Pat Boyle. Phone number to join is 310-840-4910. That's 310-840-4910. Brad, we're going to talk a little bit about the NBA here,

because we got a couple of really good games coming up on this Tuesday. If you're multi-screening, if you're jumping back and forth between commercials here, Howard UMBC underway. We got the World Baseball Classic Championship game with Team USA coming up in just over an hour. But a good Tuesday night in the NBA. Before we get there, really quickly, Brad, let's get our first update here. As the madness has begun, how are the UMBC from Dayton? What is going on in the first five minutes? Oh, well, UMBC scored the first four points of the game. And then Howard ripped off a 9-0 run. The new UMBC finally got back on the board. It is 9-6, about 15 minutes remaining here in this first half inside UD Arena. Bull team's not exactly shooting the leather off the ball. UMBC, the retrievers shooting now 30%. As they just put another ball through the basket is 9-8. Howard is shooting 43%. The one observation I primarily have, this is going to be a high scoring game. You know how you and I were talking about how I love the over at 1.48

half I grabbed this morning and then realized I would open up the BEDM GM app. All right, before Tip and jump four points, a jump for a reason. Because this has got zip, zip, zip, zip, zip, zip, break neck appeal to it. It got to be high possession lots of scoring. Now 11 to 11 every two baskets me just running off on that tangent and the last about 20 seconds. A lot of fun already underway inside you deorita. Bang. All right. So very good. Yeah. These two teams really pushing the pace here. And yeah, UMBC canning a triple there from beyond the arc. That is one of their strong suits to be able to be able to shoot the three balls. So UMBC getting that one there at 11 11 like Brad said. All right. A little NBA here. We got a big one in the Easter conference tonight, Brad. Heat versus the Hornets in Charlotte. Playoff positioning massive in this one right now. The Miami. He entered tonight as the seven seed in the East at 38 and 30. But they are only a half game back of both the Toronto Raptors and the magic for a spot in the top six in the Easter conference.

Excuse me. Meanwhile, the Hornets ever since they got off. You know, they had what historic scalding hot stretch where they were 16 and 28 and they basically won. It was like 14 of their last 16 games. They've come back down to earth a little bit. They're 34 and 34 safely as the 10 seed because it doesn't look like Milwaukee. The bucks are going to catch them. But you know, they're four games back of Miami. They're four and a half games back of the top six. I thought the way the Charlotte Hornets were playing, they would be where the Miami heat are. But you know, the hawks have one 10 in a row. The magic had one eight in a row. The heat had one seven in a row. So you got some of these teams playing some of their best ball of the year. I like the Hornets here tonight, especially because Mr. 83 points. Bam out of bio out for this game along with Andrew Wiggins. He is not going to play. He hasn't played for five straight games now. So two of their key starters for the heat are out including Bam out of bio. I think the Hornets take care of business here tonight.

I'll lay the spread with them. They're covering. It's four and a half points on that MGM. I think the Hornets roll here. I've been adopting this team as my little step brothers here for the last couple of months. Hopefully they don't let me down. I like the Hornets to win and win comfortably in this one. Yeah, the horse has been rocking, man. The most a net efficient team in the NBA over the last 10 games. I'm going to be a little bit counterintuitive here. I know he liked the Hornets and this was definitely leaving leaning into being kind of counter to your argument. Davey on Mitchell. I'm going to take the over on five and a half assists at plus one or two little babies. It is managed use on that one oddly. Even though Charlotte has allowed the viewers opponents this per game in the NBA over the last 10 just 23.6 per contest. Mitchell in three games this season against the Hornets seven times five times nine times. So he's done this in two was last read that we sit the under one five and a half assists in four straight games.

Peer got feeling. This is kind of a shot in the dark, but plus money. It hit me like a tractor beam and pulled me and so Davey and Mitchell. I'll take the over on five and a half assists at plus one oh two. Pray for my soul. Alright, and then we got a big one in the Western conference as well. Phoenix Suns in the Minnesota Timberwell is these two teams are right next to one another Minnesota hanging on to that final spot in the top six. They're 41 and 27 also tied same exact record as the nuggets and then the Suns two games back seven seed right now. They'd be in the playing tournament. If the season ended today they want to avoid that they've got to beat the Minnesota Timberwell tonight. They're two and oh against them this season and Anthony Edwards is out tonight. He's going to be reevaluated in a week or two. He's got some lingering knee soreness so you might see a you know four five game absence here from the Ant man. And yet Brad I think Minnesota rolls in this one Phoenix on a back to back to play the Celtics last night. A physically taxing game. They're still missing Dylan Brooks.

They're still missing their center Mark Williams. Grayson Allen is doubtful of play. Give me the T walls here to get it done without Anthony Edwards in a little revenge spot as well since they've already lost two to Phoenix. I like Minnesota. What do you like in this game? They all lean into that narrative. I'm going to live in a land down under on Royce O'Neill under four and a half rebounds at a minus one 15 juice. Two matchups prior against Minnesota. When over once went under once eight rebounds and one three and the other. He's averaging just north a number in the month of March at four point six boards per game. I split right down the middle and eight games this month. He's been over and four and under and four. Now the kicker here is that Minnesota usually commands a glass because a all ready to go bare only to seven few as rebounds for game allowed. I like the under on O'Neill rebounds. All right, very good. So we'll keep you posted on the NBA action. But we'll get an update on Howard and UMBC. We'll talk to Rob Dawson coming up next on that. And that is Westwood One Scores.
