Let's start with the finals.
00:01
I'm going to take the Indiana Pace.
00:03
Not the Indiana Pace.
00:04
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:04
Oklahoma City Thunder.
00:06
Minus two and a half games, they're minus 132.
00:08
I think this is a five-game series at most, Pharrell.
00:12
Maybe you see a steal in game one, but the Thunder are way too good.
00:15
Everything that Indiana does, Oklahoma City does better.
00:19
And don't sell me on Naismith, Nembriar, and Halliburton guarding someone like SGA.
00:26
He's 6'6", not 6'1".
00:29
Second, Lou Dort to make the most threes at 5-1.
00:32
Folks, hear me out.
00:34
I don't think it's Halliburton.
00:36
And if I am Rick Carlisle, I'm going to give up something because I can't match up with the other four.
00:42
I'm talking about Hartenstein.
00:44
I'm talking about Chet.
00:45
And obviously, I'm talking about Williams and SGA.
00:47
So, Lou Dort has a shot value, and he gets the attempts, and he knocks him down.
00:51
Lou Dort, 5-1.
00:52
I like that.
00:53
I like that.
00:54
And then lastly, Jalen Williams, 7-1 for the most total rebounds.
00:58
Here is why.
01:01
Siakam and Holmgren guard each other in the perimeter.
01:03
Cancel each other out.
01:05
Hartenstein and Miles Turner go to the perimeter.
01:08
Cancel each other out.
01:09
Who comes flying in?
01:10
Value play, 7-1 for Jalen Williams to lead the series in total rebounds.
01:16
How long will it be?
01:28
Is itÐ½Ð¸Ð¼æ» until now?
