NBA Finals Game 5 Best Bets | New York Knicks at San Antonio Spurs

Declared this a Knicks podcast from the opening tip this season, from pre-season.

Has been there the whole way, has bet them consistently, has talked them up.

Everything's coming up Joe Dallara.

Uh, Joe, take me on the emotional journey that you had in game four's absolute master classic.

So I was watching the game, and I was like, "This isn't going well." [laughs] Like, "This, this is a rough start here."

[laughs]

But, uh, it, it, it did feel though to a degree, I was like they're literally...

The Spurs were literally just making every shot.

It was every shot, and I was watching and I was like, "Oh my God," like, "They just can't miss." I was like, it almost didn't matter what New York was doing, they...

The Spurs couldn't miss.

So I bet them at halftime, and um [laughs] I was like, "Well, it's gotta change at some point." Like, it has to.

Sure.

Yeah.

I couldn't degenerately log that for you guys, 'cause I was like that was a, a little bit of a homer play there.

And when I say a little bit, I mean an absolute homer play.

Um, and I was like, "I'm just gonna bet the money line." Didn't even take the plus 16 and a half.

I was like, "I'm just gonna bet the money line." But, um, then I'm watching the second half, and I'm, I'm laying in bed and I'm watching the score, and I was like, you know, it's like a 30 point game.

I was like, "We just got, just get it down to like 20.

We got a shot.

We've done this before." [laughs] And uh, they do, and it keeps like chipping away, chipping away, chipping away.

And it got to like six points or something in the fourth quarter, and my wife's asleep, and I was like, "Jenna, you need to wake up." [laughs] Like, "You gotta watch this." [laughs]

[laughs]

She's like, "Are you kidding me?" [laughs] She's like, "Are you kidding?"

This is, this is his wife who has like a three-month, a two-month-old who-

And my, I almost woke up my two-month-old to watch.
