00:00Hello and good morning. So, you know, I got to jump on the train and I've been on the train,
00:06but it's starting to get a little bit annoying when I go to all these betting sites and these
00:12odd sites and they still are not putting no respect on Jalen Brown's name as MVP. He's still
00:19behind. I want you to see who he's behind when it comes to the odds. Still plus 6,500. Yeah.
00:24Which I got him at plus 8,000. So pretty good. Let's hope that one hits. But he's still behind
00:30SGA who still looks like is the favorite at plus 200. He's behind the Joker who's plus 450. He's
00:38behind Cade Cunningham who's plus 1,000 and he's behind Victor Mwemiama who's plus 2,500. And if
00:43you look at all of those guys, every one of those guys has an all-star caliber player on their
00:48basketball team. When you look at Jalen Brown and the guys that he has surrounding him, we
00:54talk about Nemus Cato who had an unbelievable game last night. Double-double. Double-double.
01:01These guys. Pete Pritch. Pete Pritch who couldn't throw the ball in the ocean and didn't try. But
01:05the point is. Scal. Which, yeah. When you start to look at the guys around him, and I think
01:11Derek White is a good player, but he's not having the year that he's had in years past. And
01:15he's, he wasn't an all-star caliber player. What Jalen Brown has been able to do to elevate
01:21this team to where they are. To 40, what? 40 wins on the season this year. I mean, we
01:27get, yep, 40 wins on the season this year. To be second in the Eastern Conference. And
01:32when you still have guys ahead of them that have these all-star caliber players on their
01:39team. And you're not giving him, and that's what I thought MVP was. Yep. About what you're
01:46able to do for your team and elevate the team around you and where you go, especially
01:54when maybe you don't have the best pieces around you. Well, and it's not just you saying
01:59it. Last week during they said it, we heard Paul Pierce say it. Right. We've heard others
02:03say it. I don't. In a weird way, doesn't this mean Tatum can never get the MVP if both of
02:08them are healthy? Well, I mean, when Tatum was balling, it was, he has too many players
02:15around them. Right. That's what I'm saying. So if Jalen Brown has this ability, then next
02:19year, how could you say Jason Tatum is the most valuable player in the NBA? But why would
02:24you guess he doesn't, why is he not higher odds wise or in the discussion? Like why is
02:31politics? People don't like what he says. Is that what it is? You think? I think it's
02:35that, I mean, remember what Stephen A. Smith said, the rest of the NBA hates him. Yeah.
02:39Like, I think it's just that he's never been a guy that just fits cleanly into a box. Like
02:44he is his own person. He won't change for others. And he's not afraid of maybe ruffle feathers.
02:48Curtis could be right about that. You know, the NBA wants their, wants their MVP or their
02:54face of the league to be safe.
