RJ Bell, Steve Fezzik, Mackenzie Rivers and Scott Seidenberg talk all things basketball and nfl free agency. NFL Free Agency and Team Moves Quarterback Transactions Geno Smith was traded from Seattle Seahawks to Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for a 2025 third-round pick . Sam Darnold signed a three-year, $100 million deal with the Seattle Seahawks . Discussion on whether Geno Smith or Darnold is a better asset, considering the trade-off of a third-round pick. Major Free Agency Signings Davante Adams joined the Rams after being released by the Jets , leaving Cooper Kupp without a team . Other notable available free agents: Amari Cooper, Stefon Diggs, Aaron Rodgers, Keenan Allen, and Russell Wilson . Josh Palmer signed a three-year, $36 million contract with the Buffalo Bills , while the Chargers opted not to re-sign him despite having ample cap space. Team Strategy and Spending Analysis High-spending teams often struggle : Historically, top-2 spenders in free agency have underperformed against the spread (ATS). Houston Texans' veteran approach : Compared to the Bills, they are taking a more conservative approach to free agency. Kansas City Chiefs' offseason strategy : Signed a veteran Pittsburgh tackle while franchising guard Trey Smith , aiming to protect Patrick Mahomes. March Madness Insights and Betting Strategies Scott Seidenberg’s NCAA Tournament System Scott outlines a systematic approach to picking March Madness winners: 96% of national champions since 2001 had a top 21 KenPom offense . 91% of champions had a top 31 KenPom defense . Guard play and three-point shooting are critical factors. The four top teams based on the model: Duke, Auburn, Houston, and Florida . Houston is favored to win the championship due to their elite three-point shooting (4th in the nation) and senior leadership . Game Flow and Betting Tips First-half unders are effective in early tournament games due to tight play and conservative approaches . Second-half overs are valuable, as teams foul aggressively to stay in the game . If a favorite is down 14 points with three minutes to go, bet the over , as the game will extend due to intentional fouls. Teams with Favorable Betting Trends Oklahoma City Thunder tend to score significantly more in the second half . The Cleveland Cavaliers' high clutch rating suggests they may be overrated , making them a good team to fade in betting . Key Quotes and Analysis 1. Steve Fezzik on Betting Trends (58:02 - 58:23) “If you bet every favorite, I think they cover 53.5%... No wonder I had a bad year.” Analysis : Fezzik highlights that favorites outperformed underdogs last year , making it difficult for bettors who prefer dogs and unders . 2. RJ Bell on Houston's Free Agency Strategy (59:10 - 59:36) “Whenever you go for a veteran, like the Bills did with Von Miller and Diggs... it hardly ever works.” Analysis : RJ critiques the Texans’ reliance on veteran free agents , implying that big free agency spending often leads to diminishing returns . 3. Scott Seidenberg on March Madness Strategy (1:26:34 - 1:27:43) “Give me the guard play. Give me the three-point shooting. Houston, the national champs at +750.” Analysis : Scott backs Houston for the NCAA title , citing elite guard play and three-point efficiency as historical indicators of championship success. Final Thoughts This episode provides an in-depth breakdown of free agency, betting strategies, and March Madness analysis .

NBA Dream Pod Wednesday + Best Bets !! 44:12

44:12

Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers talk NBA betting for Wednesday. The guys are ramping up for the NBA stretch run and provide best bets. The latest episode of the NBA podcast on RJ Bell’s Dream Preview, hosted by Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers, covers key NBA topics as the regular season nears its end. With around 16–17 games left, they discuss team performances, injuries, and betting angles for the Lakers, Bucks, Thunder, Celtics, Suns, Rockets, Timberwolves, and Nuggets. The Lakers’ situation is a focal point, especially LeBron James' groin injury, sidelining him for 1–2 weeks. Mackenzie, holding an under 49.5 wins bet on the Lakers, sees hope as they’ve lost to the Celtics and Nets. With a tough schedule ahead, including games against the Thunder, Bucks, and Nuggets, he believes they may struggle to reach 50 wins despite improving as a team. Shifting to the Bucks, Milwaukee holds a 36–27 record with the sixth-hardest remaining schedule, including key matchups against contenders. Mackenzie projects them to surpass 46.5 wins and sees playoff potential, though he doubts they can challenge Boston or Cleveland. He also critiques the Kyle Kuzma trade, questioning whether he improves the team over Khris Middleton. The episode highlights a marquee matchup between the Thunder and Celtics. Boston is a 4.5-point favorite, but Mackenzie argues Oklahoma City has been the better team. He points to Boston’s weak home-court advantage and statistical inferiority, supporting a bet on the Thunder. Munaf notes Oklahoma City's impressive 24-7 road record and believes Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will exploit Boston’s defense. The Suns' fading playoff hopes are another focus. With chemistry concerns, including reports of Kevin Durant’s frustration, Phoenix struggles to stay competitive. Sitting outside the play-in tournament, they must overtake the struggling Mavericks. However, Munaf and Mackenzie question their motivation, especially given recent locker-room tension. Meanwhile, the Rockets, currently fifth in the West at 40–25, are dealing with depth issues. Injuries to Amen Thompson and Fred VanVleet complicate their guard rotation. Mackenzie sees value in betting on Phoenix, given Houston’s instability and VanVleet’s struggles. Munaf agrees, predicting strong performances from Durant and Booker. Next, the Timberwolves vs. Nuggets matchup is analyzed. Denver, a 3.5-point home favorite, seeks revenge after losing twice in Minnesota. Mackenzie leans toward a Nuggets moneyline bet, citing their superior clutch play and Nikola Jokić’s ability to dominate late in games. He notes Denver’s outstanding home record, making them a solid bet. Munaf’s best bet is the over (237.5) in Mavericks vs. Spurs. He highlights San Antonio’s poor defense without Victor Wembanyama, leading to high-scoring games. The Spurs have allowed an average of 256 combined points in their last six contests. Despite missing key scorers, Dallas remains potent, and both teams play at a fast pace. Munaf expects a high-scoring affair. The episode concludes with discussions on March Madness contests at Pregame.com, promo codes for betting packages, and upcoming player prop bets. Munaf and Mackenzie tease their next episode, covering Friday’s games. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

CBB Weekend Preview + Best Bets !! 40:08

40:08

Griffin Warner and Big East Ben beak down CBB betting for this weekend. The guys are ready for March Madness and give out best bets. Griffin Warner and Big East Ben hosted the Need for Seats College Basketball Podcast (March 7, 2025), providing analysis and bets for significant college basketball matchups. Griffin Warner opened by acknowledging his recent betting loss on South Carolina against Georgia and humorously presented a Kawhi Leonard San Diego State jersey after their recent game against UNLV, won by Big East Ben's pick (0:15-1:28). Big East Ben celebrated snapping a four-game losing streak, noting UNLV's Julian Rich Wayne's standout performance with 26 points, significantly above his 8 PPG average, alongside Jayden Hensley's 17 points (1:29-2:19). Warner humorously discussed Julian Rich Wayne's extensive college transfer history (San Francisco, Florida, Boston College, UNLV) (2:20-3:08). They briefly touched upon Ed Cooley's move from Providence to Georgetown and speculated about his future tenure there, predicting he would remain beyond next season (3:35-4:11). The hosts moved onto detailed analyses of five highlighted matchups: Alabama at Auburn : Auburn favored by 7.5 points, total 178.5. Big East Ben critiqued Alabama’s Mark Sears, highlighting his poor recent shooting (2-10 from three) and questioned his All-American credentials. Both predicted a high-scoring game, recommending betting the "over" due to potential late-game fouls and free throws (6:07-11:05). Arizona at Kansas : Kansas favored by 3 points, total 153. Ben expressed confidence in Kansas's ability at home, referencing their long-standing Senior Day success and recent competitiveness against Houston despite numerous turnovers. Warner preferred betting "under 153," citing Kansas's defensive strength and inconsistent offense (11:06-14:39). Houston at Baylor : Baylor underdogs by 4.5 points at home, total 131. Ben critiqued Baylor’s poor defensive rebounding and perimeter defense, strongly backing Houston (-4.5). Warner opted for "over 131," expecting Houston to dominate Baylor’s zone defense, forcing Baylor to adapt unsuccessfully (14:41-19:07). Marquette vs. St. John’s : Marquette favored by 2.5, total 143. Ben passionately backed Marquette on Senior Day despite disappointment in recent performances. He highlighted Davion Smith’s injury absence for St. John's as crucial. Warner disagreed, seeing the 2.5 spread as excessive given Marquette’s recent inconsistency and St. John’s resilience, despite losing two conference games narrowly (19:08-26:26). Missouri vs. Kentucky : Missouri favored by 5.5 points, total 168.5. Ben supported Missouri, citing Kentucky’s key injuries. Warner preferred betting the "over," expecting both offenses to exploit each other's vulnerabilities, with Missouri’s press defense contributing to a high-scoring pace (26:30-31:12). In concluding, Big East Ben selected Marquette (-2.5) as his best bet, emphasizing Senior Day motivation and St. John’s weakened backcourt. Warner’s best bet was Indiana (-2) over Ohio State, trusting Indiana’s recent form and the home advantage despite previous inconsistency. The podcast also promoted a discount code (March20) for listeners to save on pregame.com bets (31:13-33:43). Throughout the podcast, the hosts shared humorous exchanges and insightful critiques, enhancing the analysis with statistical details and context for each team and key player discussed.

NBA Dream Pod Saturday + Best Bets !! 43:35

6 days ago43:35

43:35

Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers talk NBA betting for Saturday. The guys also give out best bets. The NBA Dream Preview podcast hosted by Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers provided analysis and insights for NBA games scheduled for Saturday. Munaf Manji (0:11–2:02) opened by highlighting the major news of Kyrie Irving's torn ACL injury, emphasizing its severe impact on the Dallas Mavericks. He pointed out Kyrie's exceptional season, noting he was the only player averaging over 20 points per game, 50% from the field, and 90% from the free-throw line. Mackenzie Rivers (2:03–3:54) discussed the implications of Irving's injury, stressing that while ACL injuries have shorter recovery periods today, it’s significant given Kyrie's age (32) and heavy usage (39 minutes per game—the highest in the NBA post-Luka trade). Mackenzie critically noted the broader issue of heavy player workloads, suggesting the NBA’s physical intensity has surpassed traditional scheduling models. Munaf Manji (3:54–4:56) agreed, proposing fewer games (65-70 instead of 82) could reduce injuries and improve player availability for playoffs. Discussing Anthony Davis’s future with Dallas (4:57–6:17), Mackenzie declared the Mavericks' current championship window effectively closed. He asserted that Davis is primarily valuable as a trade asset and doubted Davis's return to significant play for Dallas. Rivers (6:37–6:56) briefly predicted a Lakers-Celtics finals matchup, highlighting these franchises' historic rivalry and current strengths. Munaf Manji (6:57–7:47) emphasized star power in the Lakers-Celtics potential finals, specifically mentioning Luka Doncic, LeBron James, Jayson Tatum, and Jalen Brown. He noted the Celtics' injury issues and their intent to keep stars healthy for playoffs. In the "I Got Five On It" segment (7:49–14:18), Mackenzie set the Lakers' over-under win total at 52.5, noting their impressive 12-2 record since acquiring Luka Doncic, making them the number two seed in the West. Munaf chose the under, citing a challenging remaining schedule and likely rest periods for LeBron and Luka. Game analysis began with Orlando Magic at Milwaukee Bucks (14:19–20:19). Mackenzie favored Bucks at -7.5, noting Orlando's poor recent form and injury to Jalen Suggs negatively impacting both offense and defense. Munaf supported this, citing Milwaukee’s historic dominance over Orlando. The Lakers at Celtics game (20:19–26:04) was assessed next. Rivers initially leaned toward Boston but cited concerns about Drew Holiday’s injury and the Lakers' recent strength in clutch moments. Munaf took Lakers +6, highlighting their resilience and strong halftime adjustments. Finally, they analyzed Detroit Pistons at Golden State Warriors (26:06–33:45). Despite Detroit’s impressive recent performance, Mackenzie expressed cautious support for the Pistons +5 due to Warriors’ recent long road trip. Munaf agreed, noting Detroit's strong road performance this season. Munaf’s best bet (34:10–36:34) was Houston Rockets -8 against the Pelicans, citing Houston’s 3-0 head-to-head record against New Orleans and recent defensive strength. Mackenzie supported this but mentioned Fred VanVleet’s questionable status as an important factor. The episode concluded with promotional announcements for pregame.com and playful banter about Irish Heritage Month (38:32–39:50). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

Munaf sets their win total at 50.5 ; Mackenzie leans over but notes Jamal Murray’s inconsistency & road struggles. OKC Thunder vs. The Field – Thunder (-115) favorites to win the West but concerns about SGA’s free throw reliance & three-point shooting. Munaf: "Let me see it in the playoffs first." Mackenzie sees Lakers as their biggest threat. Monday Night Bets Grizzlies (-6.5) vs. Hawks – Atlanta’s terrible defense since All-Star break. Mackenzie: "This line should be -10.5."

Griffin Warner and Big East Ben talk college basketball betting for this weekend. They guys are gearing up for March and give you the biggest game for Saturday. Best bets as always. 🔹 Opening Remarks & Betting Recap (0:14 - 1:39) Griffin Warner and Big East Ben introduce the episode, reviewing previous best bets. Griffin mentions his Oklahoma bet , which survived the spread thanks to Otega Oweh’s dominant second half. Ben highlights Oregon State vs. San Francisco , detailing how USF erased a 12-point deficit with a 21-0 run . 🔹 Frustrations & Bad Betting Night (1:40 - 4:25) Ben recounts a series of bad beats : North Dakota State's top player was unexpectedly out . Rhode Island led early but collapsed against Dayton . Arkansas vs. Texas hit overtime, busting his under bet . Griffin reflects on San Francisco’s unexpected hot shooting , with a 22% shooter making four threes . 🔹 Conference Tournament Sleepers & Injury Uncertainty (4:25 - 5:59) Discussion on whether they should pick a conference tournament sleeper . Injury speculation in Big Ten & SEC : Lack of transparency makes betting tricky . SEC availability reports are still vague . Game Previews & Betting Analysis 🏀 Kentucky vs. Auburn (-4.5, 166.5 O/U) (6:00 - 10:13) Key Injury : Jackson Robinson OUT for Kentucky . Matchup Analysis : Kentucky: Strong three-point shooting team but not as reliant on it as expected. Auburn: Best three-point defense in the SEC . Bets : Ben leans under 166.5 due to Auburn’s slower pace . Griffin backs Kentucky (+4.5) , citing home-court advantage. 🏀 Kansas (-4.5) vs. Texas Tech (146 O/U) (10:14 - 13:56) Key Injury : Darian Williams & Chase McMillan questionable for Texas Tech. Matchup Analysis : Texas Tech fought hard against Houston, but only played six guys . Kansas desperately needs this win , but Griffin labels them a " shitty team ." Bets : Ben takes Under 146 , citing strong rebounding and foul control . Griffin reluctantly backs Kansas (-4.5) , believing Texas Tech’s short rotation will struggle. 🏀 Tennessee (-3.5) vs. Alabama (159 O/U) (14:49 - 18:44) Key Stats : Alabama’s defense has been terrible lately ( 110+ points allowed twice ). Tennessee's defense is slipping but still elite at home . Bets : Ben bets Tennessee (-3.5) , expecting defensive regression for Alabama . Griffin agrees, taking Tennessee , but is wary of a high-scoring game. 🏀 Iowa State (-6) vs. Arizona (151 O/U) (18:45 - 21:27) Key Injury : Keyshawn Gilbert expected to return for Iowa State. Matchup Analysis : Arizona doesn't shoot many threes , which negates Iowa State's weak three-point defense . Both teams excel at forcing turnovers . Bets : Under 151 due to turnover-heavy play and fewer foul shots . 🏀 Gonzaga (-9) vs. San Francisco (157 O/U) (23:23 - 26:40) Key Context : San Francisco gave up home-court advantage to play at Chase Center (Golden State Warriors’ arena). USF’s interior defense is weak ( 212th in the country ). Bets : Ben takes Gonzaga (-9), expecting a blowout . Griffin reluctantly backs USF (+9), hoping they stay close enough to cover late fouls . Best Bets & Closing Remarks (29:07 - 34:04) Best Bets : Ben: William & Mary (-1) vs. Northeastern – Citing weak three-point defense from Northeastern. Griffin: South Carolina (-1) vs. Arkansas – Arkansas without Tramon Mark will struggle . Promo Code: "Charging20" for 20% off betting subscriptions . Key Takeaways 🔹 Betting Trends : Injury uncertainty and defensive regression were major themes. 🔹 Player Analysis : Oklahoma’s Otega Oweh, Kentucky’s Jackson Robinson, and Arizona’s Keyshawn Gilbert were key names in the discussion. 🔹 Game Picks : Unders were a common theme , with Ben and Griffin mostly favoring home teams in close spreads. 🔹 Hot Take : San Francisco sacrificing home-court for a money grab at Chase Center is a terrible decision .
