00:03 The interesting change in the odds
00:04 is not Boston looking like they've already reached
00:07 the NBA championship series.
00:08 It's Jalen Brown after a 40-point performance
00:11 becoming the odds-on favorite to win the ECF MVP
00:15 in front of Jason Tatum.
00:16 Yesterday, Tatum was a minus 280 favorite, Donnie.
00:20 That's what happens when you go on a day-to-day basis.
00:22 And also, we're not looking at an extended series here.
00:24 It's like, OK, Tatum will have a good game, then Brown,
00:26 and we'll see how he plays that over seven games.
00:28 You have that monster performance in game number two
00:30 and become the favorite.
00:31 We're probably looking at two more games,
00:32 which means Tatum has to be really good in game three
00:35 and four.
00:36 And then you take a look at Brown.
00:37 He can't be as sensational as he won in game number two,
00:40 scoring 40 points.
00:41 We thought the series was probably a five-game series
00:43 before it started.
00:44 And that was with a completely healthy Indiana Pacers team.
00:47 They're not completely healthy now.
00:49 I would be surprised if we get back
00:50 to TD Garden for game number five.
