Hello, welcome to the Booth Collective 5Gast.

We talk about the NBA, it's Tuesday, early evening.

Have crossed the country since we last spoke, joining me from across the street.

I'm at my hotel, but across the street of the TD Garden is Tim Bonteffs.

Hello guys.

Tim's done a lot of these podcasts from Boston, but this is the first time he's done it from

the arena, I think.

Yeah, first time for everything.

And joining us from Dallas, Texas, it's Ben McMahon.

Eddie Partners.

So we had a great moment in the press conferences today around the practices on the off day before

today being Tuesday.

You guys will hear this Wednesday, day of game three.

Clay Thompson was talking about, you know, nobody wants to use the word slump, but he has

an exactly shot the heck out of the ball.

The first two games he was four of 19 in game two.

And I thought this was a, this is a moment that you don't, a lot of times, especially in

the heart of these series, where there's a lot of pressure.

I don't think you get a lot of, you know, moments of authenticity.

They're a little bit far, few and far between because everybody's being cagey or, you

know, just tense.

But we had a great claim moment.
