00:00Let's see where certain names lie when it comes to the finals MVP odds. How

00:07things have shaken up and switched over the last two weeks. Performance-based, of

00:11course. Now Brianna Stewart sitting at the top at plus 270. Wilson, no surprise,

00:16being at plus 310, nipping at the heels. And then, come on guys, Collier plus 420.

00:22Who's not kind of putting a sprinkle on that? However you want to use it. Beer

00:25money, hot dog money, hot dogs are disgusting. Whatever you feel good about

00:29doing, put a little sprinkle when it comes to Collier in this conversation.

00:32Then you got INSQ plus 750 and Jones at plus 1600. I think that this is rounded

00:39out beautifully. I mean, I know that some people are wondering how Kaitlyn Clark

00:42is not in the topic of conversation. I'm sure we'd see some sort of breach in the

00:45top five if the Fever do move out of that first round. But realistically, you've

00:50just got to give credit to what Wilson has done by throwing her team on her

00:53back to keep them momentum, momentously moving forward to be in a playoff

00:58conversation, let alone a title-odd conversation. Then Stewart, hands down,

01:03has just been another figure who has thrown her team on her back in a number

01:06of situations. But when it comes to Collier, I mean, fifth in the league when

01:10it comes to scoring, 20.4 average, but then also third in the league when it

01:13comes to rebounding. And if you caught the segment with coach, he kind of led to

01:16the fact of how crucial rebounding is. And I will take it one step further and

01:20say how crucial rebounding is when you get into the postseason. So Collier just

01:24being one of those very well-rounded players, and of course the Minnesota

01:27Lynx just having a tremendous time after that Olympic break. I think that all the

01:31boxers just really check off when it comes to Minnesota and Collier making a

01:34run and a really, really loud yell for that MVP slot. I'm gonna ask you, she's

01:40somebody that I actually had at the top. If you would have talked to me almost a

01:43month ago, this is where I was leaning with this. I think that she's another

01:47very well-rounded player, somebody who has come in strategically and importantly

01:50for her team. I mean, regardless of injuries, regardless of anything else

01:54that's going on around, Sabrina has been able to be such a solid rock for her

01:57team. I mean, she was one of my top two, again, about a month ago. And then Jones

02:01is another one. I mean, you can't knock off anybody from the Liberty. They sit at

02:05the top for a reason, and to have 30-plus wins, be the first team to 30 wins, it's

02:09obvious that they're a very dominant force to be reckoned with. But I already

02:13told you who I think might knock him off the top, and coach told you who he thinks

02:17might knock him off the top. His bet's the Indiana Fever, and I'm gonna continue to

02:20rock and roll when it comes to the Minnesota Lynx for my favorite odds.
