00:00We take a look at Golden State and Minnesota with the series-odd prices here.
00:03The Timberwolves are a minus-178 favorite to win that series.
00:06The Golden State Warriors at a plus-150 price.
00:09When you see those numbers to start that series, is it price appropriate for you, Coach?
00:13Or are you somewhat surprised that the Timberwolves would be that high of a favorite, per se, or not?
00:18Well, I'm going to take everyone back to, well, they probably didn't hear this,
00:21but you remember, right, last week, Donnie, we were talking about this with Ben and Joe
00:25during the commercial break about who was going to be the series price leader.
00:31And if I remember, Frizo was saying, our producer was saying, it was going to be Minnesota.
00:35And we were all saying it was going to be Golden State.
00:38But remember, that was that 3-1 Golden State.
00:41The way that Golden State looked just getting through and how, like, at times,
00:45stuff looked really old and how Minnesota just capped off that series,
00:50now it's starting to line up where it should be
00:54because the team that's playing better right now is Minnesota.
00:58The team with home court advantage is Minnesota.
01:02So to me, what's interesting is, is how do you bet this series?
01:06I have a hard time believing that Golden State's going to win this series.
01:11I don't even know that this is even going to be overly competitive.
01:15If we get what we got out of Minnesota, the same problems,
01:19the same problems that the Lakers had versus the Timberwolves
01:26are coming back to roost again.
01:30The lack of height.
01:32What are you doing with Draymond?
01:34Who does Draymond guard?
01:37Is Draymond guarding Rudy?
01:39Then who takes Randall?
01:40Well, then if you want to try and put, someone told me over the weekend,
01:43like, oh, you put Jimmy Butler on Randall.
01:46Then who the hell is guarding him?
01:47So to me, there are matchup problems defensively,
01:52not just height-wise, but athletic-wise.
01:54I love this to go six games or less.
01:57I'm going to go ahead and take Minnesota minus one and a half games.
02:00I think they get this within six games.
