Chapter 1: What is Thursday Thunder and who is JuJu Gotti?
All right, it's time for Thursday Thunder, and it's presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Juju, take it away.
Chapter 2: What are JuJu Gotti's betting picks for tonight?
Welcome back. Welcome back. Last week, another two for three. If two for threes. Oh my goodness. I'm not going to get started, but this week we're back. I'm going tonight, the Oklahoma City Thunder Moneyline. Oh, come on. Those brothers are going to get the W tonight. I know it. Come on. It is cowardice.
What are the odds on that? It is straight cowardice. They're nine and a half point favorites. One of the biggest favorites in the history of the sport.
It's bullshit. Have you seen Halliburton? No. He got it going right now. You never know. All right. Leg two. I'm going Chet Holmgren under 9.5 rebounds. He's a tall brother, but I don't think he's going to get 10 rebounds tonight at all. Take the under. And for the last leg, I'm going to the W. I'm going to the Valkyrie. I'm going to the Golden State Valkyrie, the newest team in the league.
Chapter 3: What happened in the Boston Red Sox game?
Veronica Burton, the PG. Tiffany Hayes is hurt right now, so they're going to need a big night from her. I'm going her over 10.5 points tonight, and she will get it done against the Mercury. You dig us.
Chapter 4: What defines a pop-up versus a fly-out in baseball?
You'd be winning giant money if you were betting all of Juju's picks, just not his parlays, because he takes a lot of time with these and he often hits two out of three. A couple of things we didn't talk about today, Stugatz. There was in the Boston Red Sox game yesterday. A game winning home run that went three hundred and eight feet. What?
That is a pop up that is closer to a pop up than it is to a home run. But it went out of the park and it went inside of the pesky pole. Three hundred and eight feet.
I'm not sure if that's closer to a pop up, but I get your point. Oh, my God.
Yeah, it is. I mean, a home run's a home run. A walk off's a walk off. A pop fly.
It's like a pop-up stays in the infield. 308 feet is a weak fly ball to the right fielder in every other ballpark in America.
It's not very much. It's not an infield pop-up. It was enough in that ballpark. Yeah, to get out.
Put it on the poll. Can you have a pop-up in the outfield? I'm pretty sure if it's in the outfield, it's a fly ball. Yes.
You don't think that a pop-up can be a right fielder catching it right behind the second baseman?
I'm going to text Tim Kirk.

Chapter 5: Why are the Pacers considered a long shot in the finals?
If the outfielder has to run in.
Guys, it's a fly ball to the center fielder. It's a pop-up to the second baseman. I'm with Dan, though. If a second baseman goes out into shallow right, I could see that being a pop-up.
If you have to have communication between the infielder and the outfielder, that's a pop-up.
Roy is giving us the Mutombo finger.
No, we're calling that a pop fly.
Right. That is the hybrid. Game changer.
He really did ruin the entire game. Just took it out, ended the game. The other thing I wanted to point out to you guys, because we didn't talk about this at all. In fact, I think Chet Holmgren was the first mention of anything basketball related in the show today. That wasn't me just mentioning name dropping Stan Van Gundy. The Pacers are the biggest long shot in the last 20 years.
The last long shot like this was the Pistons team that did knock off the Lakers in five games. But a ton of money is coming in on the Pacers. Tons of money. It's at least because they're big value, because they're such a big dog. It's a value play, yes.
They're 5-1 underdogs, but the grand majority of the money is coming in on the Pacers because of how rare it is to have this kind of value from one of the team in the finals.
