Coming up in about 15 minutes or so, my take on the men's Olympic ice hockey tournament

with a preview of the gold medal game coming up on Sunday between the United States and Canada. But let's get back to the basketball as joining us right now on the progressive guest line. He is a betting analyst from NBC Sports. Vaughn Delzell joins us here to talk a little NBA and college basketball. Vaughn thanks so much for giving us a couple minutes here on VSE. I want to real quickly start in the NBA because we have a game tonight, the Battle of

LAB between the Lakers and the Clippers.

We've seen this line move in both ways.

Obviously, it moved in favor of the Lakers, then it moved in favor of the Clippers.

LeBron James is questionable for tonight.

Is it worth taking a flyer on some of his props?

And listen, if he doesn't play, it gets voided, right? But if he plays, is there an angle here to be betting on LeBron James props? Yeah, I'm back on LeBron's unders tonight. I bet this before he was listed as questionable. Last time I did bet as under, he actually was out and got got avoided on the second night of a back-to-back.

That's what the Clippers are on tonight, Scott. So there's certainly potential here for a blowout, maybe for a close game because they're rivalries. But the last two times that LeBron has played the Clippers, Austin Reeves didn't play. I think that was a big factor on why he scored a bunch of points. I mean, 23 and 36 in those two games also had 25 earlier in the year.

So you'd expect the number that has to be higher than 19 and a half or 20 and a half, whatever number of your sports books are offering. So I definitely thought that was a little fishy here. And I mean, he did play 36 and 38 minutes in those last two meetings. I don't think he's going to play that anywhere near that if he gets in tonight. Obviously with All-Star weekend, we saw the old heads, as they called themselves, round of gas there in that championship game. And I think LeBron was one of those guys, too. So, I mean, I just don't see him playing, you know, 34, 35 plus minutes if he does play tonight. And with the questionable tag, hope he suits up because it makes the under even better for me and the final match between these rivals. So, yeah, I do like LeBron's unders and I lean the Lakers in this game.

Yeah. the questionable tag. Hope he suits up because it makes the under even better for me in the final match between these rivals. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, I do like LeBron's unders and I lean the Lakers in this game. Yeah, Lakers now, six and a half point favorites. That game 10 o'clock Eastern time tonight. So we'll obviously keep an eye and track the status of LeBron James as we get closer and closer to tip off of that one. In top 25 college basketball, we have a couple of games that are set to begin

one momentarily and another one at the bottom of the hour, but setting to begin momentarily, number seven Purdue hosting Indiana. Vaughan, do you have any play on this game? Yeah, I'm going with the first half team total under on the Hoosiers, man. I mean, last time these two teams, Matt,

everyone knows what happened, right?

The Hoosiers got out to a big lead.

They're up,

they had 40 points in the first half. Purdue just got smacked by Michigan in the last game. And now the first half of Michigan basically had a 50 spot on them. So Purdue's got to clean up their act defensively. I mean, with Cluff and these guys, they have so much size down low. The rebounding advantage is obviously there. I mean, Indiana, in the Big Ten specifically, they're a bottom six, bottom 17 when it comes to rebounding percentage in both ways. So I think Purdue should come out and look much better here. I lean the first half spread, but I think the best play is Indiana's team total under a 32 and a half down a 31 half. It's simple, Scott, because when you look at their splits against bad teams and good teams on the road, you got Minnesota, Maryland Rutgers. They score 33 or more in all three of those games, right, as they should. But when they played Michigan State, Michigan, UCLA, Illinois, they went under 33 points in all those games. So it's pretty clear that against the better teams, they struggle on the road early on, and then kick it up a notch in the second half. So, you know, I'd look at live betting again after down by double digits in the first half, but I do think Indiana under a team total is the best bet here. I was going to ask you about a live betting opportunity. So I'm glad you mentioned that, Vaughn. And then the game coming up at the bottom of the hour, undefeated Miami of Ohio. As they still, people, it seems like everybody's waiting for this team to drop a game. They host Bowling Green. It's their second to last home game of the season. They will play Toledo next week at home to close out their schedule as they look to head into the conference tournament undefeated and maximize their opportunities to get to the NCAA tournament. Seeing some movement here on the spread. Here at Sarka, it is Miami of Ohio minus eight over Bowling Green. What do you like in this one? Yeah, it makes a lot of sense. I mean, Miami is definitely

the better team. And I'm one of those people that have been, you know, I'm not saying I'm praying
