00:00Okay, we only have two minutes left, so I don't think we're going to get through all
00:06this.
00:07Let's get through some of the tight series here.
00:09We've got the Cavs and the Magic, 4-5 in the East.
00:12No one had Orlando in this spot at the beginning of the season, playing with a little house
00:17money.
00:18Cavs are favored, you know, sort of heavy here, minus 195, but I'm seeing other series
00:22that are in the 200, so not as much.
00:25Do you think Orlando can pull this series off?
00:31There's always a chance.
00:32I like the Cavaliers in this series as a team who's been here before, at least they were
00:38here last year.
00:39It didn't necessarily go how they wanted it to go, but there's something to be said about
00:41the fact that they've been on the playoff stage together.
00:44This is the first time for Orlando they're led by a second-year player, Paulo Banqueiro.
00:48It's huge accomplishment for them to be here, but they have to now take their bumps and
00:51growing pains along the way.
00:53All right, and let me hit on one in the West here.
00:57Let's do Minnesota and Phoenix.
00:59This one seems to be divided.
01:00Boy, Phoenix minus 120, Minnesota minus 102.
01:04That's horrible.
01:05Can't even get any plus money in this series, FanDuel?
01:07Please, give me somebody plus.
01:09Boy, I mean, I'm going to root for Minnesota here because I like the story.
01:13I like a good story for a franchise that hasn't done a lot, but Phoenix is battle-tested,
01:19you know, and that's sort of my issue here.
01:22Phoenix is battle-tested.
01:24They needed a lot of wins to close the season, and they did.
01:26I think they won seven of their last 10, including the last game of the season against Minnesota.
01:30There's a little bit of competitive fire, some backtalk between these teams, and it's
01:34a really tough matchup for Minnesota.
01:36I think the series could go the distance, but I'm leaning Phoenix just because of their
01:39star power.
