welcome back wow what an end to the season. It's taking me a few days to recover.

I actually wanted to take some space to get away from what was just a wild final two games of the playoffs.

Obviously, the Durant injury

and then the Clay Thompson injury

were as striking and shocking as the wild classic games that wrapped up that series.

So I couldn't even really sleep after game six, just trying to process everything that had happened and

taking a few days and now come back re-watched a lot of the film looked at my

notes added some new notes so today we'll talk about we'll have a little post-mortem on the finals,

specifically game six. I want to get into the incredible stories on the court, the untold stories on the court at the end of game six, we'll do that.

Also released the top 10 players video on YouTube this week.

That was quite a production and a really interesting

Hearing from you, interacting with you, getting all of the support

So I do typically do a pretty detailed breakdown for my own records at the finals and I'm in the

process of sharing that in a way that'll be a post that will be up on backpicks for all the patrons out there just

basically detailing a lot of things that I keep in my process film observations stats
