00:00Give me good news here, Dex.

00:04We got the sun.

00:05We've got the links.

00:06I'm trying not to be biased.

00:08So this is also why we need friends and expertise in this field.

00:13What do you like about the sun versus the links?

00:15Is it as easy as the links just running away with this one?

00:17Because I'm okay with that too.

00:19Well, no, I like the links here, but what I'll say is this is not going to be easy because

00:24these are the two best teams in the league in terms of defensive rating where I think

00:29the links have the edge, it's just their two-way versatility.

00:33They've got more ladies who I think are just better on both sides of the ball.

00:36You know, there's an argument you could say Alyssa Thomas is the best all-around player

00:41in this matchup.

00:42But, you know, Fi is tremendous and we saw what she did just dropping a 42-piece in the

00:46closeout game and how tremendous she was in the last series for the links.

00:51So I don't want to say be biased and go with Minnesota, but I just think they have a lot

00:55of better two-way players in terms of Kayla McBride, in terms of Fi, they I think can

01:00get the job done.

01:01They're playing well.

01:02They're so well coached by Cheryl Reeve, who's a championship level coach.

01:06Listen, I know a lot of people are going to talk and say that the Liberty and the Aces

01:10are the, that could be the finals matchup right there, but don't sleep on Minnesota.

01:16Minnesota's really good.

01:17They have all the talent to win it all this year.

01:19So I like Minnesota in this series, but I wouldn't sleep on the sun.

01:22I'm going to go Minnesota in four in this one.

01:25Ooh, we're going to be clipping that one because I kind of, I'm right there with you.

01:28I can't disrespect the sun, but before I let you go, Dexter, to enjoy the rest of your

01:32Friday and your weekend, I got to put you in the hot seat.

01:35Who is lifting the trophy at the end of it all?

01:37All right.

01:38I'm going to be biased.

01:39I'm keeping it with New York, going with the Liberty.

01:41I think the Liberty figured out a way to get it done and they get the first title in franchise

01:45history.
