00:00 the Dallas Mavericks, the hottest team in the Western Conference entering All-Star weekend,
00:08 winners of six in a row, or the Miami Heat to win the Eastern Conference.
00:12 Dallas to win the West, 13 to 1, same exact price for Miami out East, 13 to 1.
00:19 What's more likely?
00:20 It's a great question with a simple answer for me.
00:23 If I ask myself, Ben, who is the best team in the NBA right now who you think is going
00:27 to win the championship?
00:28 It's the Boston Celtics.
00:30 You look at the two teams and the options that we have, one's the Mavericks, one is
00:33 also the Miami Heat.
00:34 Only one of those teams, Ben, plays in the Eastern Conference, and that's the Miami Heat
00:38 here.
00:39 So if I'm just looking for defaults here, it's going to be, boy, I got to get past the
00:42 Celtics before I even get to the NBA Finals.
00:45 I don't think that's going to happen here for the Miami Heat.
00:47 And also, we do talk about how stacked and tough the Western Conference is.
00:51 I get it.
00:52 But how do you win these big playoff games?
00:53 Have a couple superstars at any moment that can go off, and you have that with Kyrie Irving
00:58 and Luka Doncic here for the Mavericks.
01:00 Even price points at 13-1 on both sides, but in one, I get to avoid the Boston Celtics
01:05 to win this bet.
01:06 That's where I'm going with the Mavericks here, Ben, for me.
01:07 Give me them at a 13-1 price in the West.
