00:00Okay, the East then. Boston, Detroit, Cleveland, maybe Miami, if you want to throw that in there, in your opinion.
00:08What do you think? If you had to take one of those three teams, win the East, who would you
00:12take?
00:14For the value, I think if I had to choose, I'd probably lean into the Celtics just because of I
00:19do still think that this team has championship pedigree,
00:22even with a lot of the changes they made. If Jason Tatum returns to all pro level basketball, then this
00:26team can beat anybody in the conference.
00:28A little bit further down the board, though, you mentioned the Heat. I actually am really high on this team
00:33this year.
00:33I love the addition of Giannis Antetokounmpo to this lineup, and the way that they were playing ball last year,
00:39Dan,
00:39they were playing a five-out system. They were doing very minimal pick and rolling, and if Giannis can do
00:43that,
00:44he's going to average close to a triple-double. We're going to see record assist numbers from him this season,
00:48and this team could be really fun down in South Beach. So I think you're getting some nice value there,
00:52too,
00:52but if I had to choose top three, I think I'd probably lean with the Cs.
00:56Boy, I've got to tell you, man, I just love Eric Spolster, and I love the way Pat Riley runs
01:00that organization,
01:01and there is no doubt Giannis is going to be right there at the end of the day, too. I
01:06wouldn't be shocked.
