Chapter 1: What are JuJu Gotti's picks for Thursday Thunder?
All right, it's time for Thursday Thunder presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Juju, take it away.
Great energy, my brother Roy.
Great energy.
Chapter 2: Who are the standout players in JuJu's NBA bets?
I'm going to start off in the association tonight with my brother, Stefan Castle. I think you will get over 13.5 points against your Phoenix Suns tonight. Yeah. Next, I'm going to stay in the association and travel to the world champions, the Boston Celtics, your reigning world champions. Let me repeat that. Over on Derek White, 13.5 points.
He will get over that tonight against the Philadelphia 76ers, who are struggle-ish, but struggle-ish. And then for the third leg, I'm going to stay with the world champion Boston Celtics and go with the hero, one of the best big men in the history of the entire world. Thank you. Al Horford. Yes. You feel me?
Yeah.
You know what Stu Gott said. If you have a team full of Al Horfords, you don't need anything else. Right. He will get over 5.5 points tonight, Daddy. We got to believe it. And the last leg. Tell him, Juju. Chris Cody. Tell him. I'm staying in the United States of America. I am being patriotic, you dig it? I'm taking USA, Team USA, in the Four Nations Cup Championship to beat Canada tonight.
You got to dig it. Let's go, man.

Chapter 3: What feedback did JuJu have on Tony's new segment?
Screw Canadian bacon. We have so many kachuks. I regret saying the thing I said about Al Horford. It stays with you? That if you have a team full of Al Horford, you have a championship team. No, you don't. If you have one Al Horford, he helps you win a championship. But a team full of Al Horfords, you need offense. Kick, save, and abuse.
Juju, what's some of the feedback you're getting on the show today? Man, the show was magnificent today. Tony, bro, that was a good segment, the Don't Look segment. Yeah. Bro, I can't wait to hear more of that. You dig it. Salute, salute all the way around the board. Also, we didn't get to mention Bobby Portis has been suspended 25 games for PED substances. You know what I mean?
Neither here nor there. I keep my brother in my prayers. You dig it? So Jessica was right. You feel me? If the heat were good, y'all would love the NBA. Y'all went through 20 pounds of Jimmy Butler trade rumors, so much so that y'all was alienating the audience. But in the same breath, y'all be like, oh, but the NBA is uninteresting. Well, you got to choose one. Is it uninteresting?
Let's stop the Jimmy talk. If it is interesting, let's full force ahead and love it. But neither here nor there.
Chapter 4: Is the NBA MVP race between Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Nikola Jokic the best ever?
Juju, I will say this, though. Talk about the NBA being interesting. I think this is probably the best MVP race that we've had, maybe ever, in the NBA. Absolutely. Between Shea Gillis Alexander and between Nikola Jokic, that's the tightest race we've ever seen, probably. Hmm.
Absolutely. I think they're going to probably do how they did a couple years ago because I think people got Jokic fatigued for some reason.
Chapter 5: Are we experiencing Jokic Fatigue in the NBA MVP race?
Three out of four years for Jokic.
Right. But I think that Jokic, he definitely deserves it again, man, because I don't know what he's doing with that team consecutive over the years. Now he got Russell Westbrook on the team. I think he deserves at least a co-MVP award. But you can't deny what Shea Gildress and them boys are doing at OKC. Need to do it in the postseason, though, right? That's the next step for them, though.
Absolutely.
Juju, I see you repping the Browns right now. It seems like you're flying the flag of a different team every time I see you. How many favorite teams do you have? I'm just curious.
I only like the Eagles and the Bills when it comes to the National Football League. Go Birds. I just happen to have a lot of merch, you dig it? I support everybody. And I like the fact that they're rumored to be getting Shador, so I'm trying to show a little support, you dig it? Nice. Yeah.
That'd be great. Have you seen that story, Greg? The Shador going to Cleveland? Where he plays Madden's football, but he only plays it with the Cleveland Browns. That's the only team he chooses, right? That's a little crazy talk.
So everyone is speculating that he wants to go to Cleveland, right, Juju? Right, right. And I speculate that it's a little bit of BS in there, but hey, you got to fake it till you make it. You dig it. Do you have polls for us? Yes, sir. I got some polls. Can a goal be both gorgeous and should have been stopped at the same time?
Yes, yes, it can.
Seventy nine percent of the audience says yes, it can. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. If you want to focus on the task at hand, can there be doughnuts around? 59% of the audience says, no, there cannot be donuts. All right. Fun show. Big winners today. Right. Salute to Homer Simpson. Do people still associate Florida with oranges? 76% of the audience says, yes, they do. Wow.
