00:05 You would think if the Celtics win, it's probably going to be Jason Tatum.
00:08 A lot of the time, obviously, it goes to the best player on the winning team.
00:12 Now, there have been exceptions, like you can't forget Andre Iguodala,
00:16 you know, winning for the Warriors.
00:17 So, and if the Celtics hadn't, you know, missed out on an opportunity,
00:23 I hate to say blown, because it was only a 2-1 series lead.
00:27 They were up big in game four.
00:28 If they hadn't squandered, how about that, squandered an opportunity against
00:32 the Warriors a couple years back, you know, Tatum was having a bad series.
00:36 And Jalen Brown was the one who was crushing it.
00:39 He was tracking to be Finals MVP in that one.
00:42 And so I think it's just a nice reminder that, you talked about it earlier,
00:47 that Jason Tatum, you know, has been willing at points in this postseason
00:51 to sort of take a step back, be more of a creator, facilitator.
00:54 He's not turning the ball over nearly as much as he has in some playoff runs in
00:59 the past.
00:59 He's not necessarily scoring with that same regularity, but
01:04 that's fine because they're winning, so who cares?
01:06 I don't know why people are so nitpicky about that stuff.
01:08 But I just, I wouldn't bother betting Tatum minus 125,
01:12 not because I think he can't or shouldn't or won't win.
01:14 There's just no value in the number.
01:16 So if we flash, you know, some of the other options up again for you when it comes to
01:19 some of these depth guys that you have available to you after, you know,
01:23 once you get into plus money, obviously Jalen Brown at that point, you know,
01:27 Derek White, I think would be worth a sprinkle when it comes to
01:32 some of the big game moments that he has had so far in the playoffs.
01:35 If he can string together a solid whatever four to six game stretch,
01:40 you know, is Porzingis a crazy bet?
01:43 You know, I wouldn't bet.
01:44 >> Here we go.
01:45 He's gonna win the MVP.
01:46 He can't even walk.
