We're just a little a real a little loose. We got big strong opinions today now the NBA playoffs joy

Uh-huh. They start tonight playing games are you know their playoff games. So it's fun

This is what you know not against the regular season the NFL is the only sport

We really watch all the regular season like the other stuff. It's like if you have time

You know you go occasionally watch a baseball game, but playoff baseball playoff basketball is great

Plan games tonight. Now I've said with no confidence whatsoever. I like the Lakers and Milwaukee to reach the finals

And one of the reasons I like Milwaukee is we've dismissed them and there was this two or three year period where

Yannis is gonna be the face of the league. He's on 60 minutes and

There was a lot of pressure and I thought it affected him and they didn't have really a complete roster

But the but the leagues done trying to make him the face of the league last year in the bubble

They put Milwaukee playoff games on it noon you're more not the face of the league if they're putting your playoff games on it noon

That's like the NFL playoff game on Saturday. They're not putting your dynasties on that

Also, he signed an extension so he's not going anywhere. He had a great year, but wasn't even in the MVP conversation

Brooklyn should be favored because of their star power and stars matter in the playoffs

So I think Milwaukee the minute we dismiss NBA teams, you know like we guarantee the two things about LeBron's teams

They're always better the second year. We think he's gonna walk into a place and win titles

It never works that way. So it was the second year and we also tend to think when you put a bunch of stars together
