Thank you. Ben, welcome back to another show, it's the first show of the 2024 season and just the first

week of an NBA season is like a fire hose of information and then you wake up and it's like

James Harden traded to the Los Angeles Clippers and that's we have to talk about that. We have to talk we have to break down the trade we have to give it a grade

We have to grade the trade now and we have to grade everything's going on with to tell you exactly

What's gonna happen of course we're not going to do that.

Cody, what's rule number one that you have this season?

We don't talk about the clippers. We don't talk about the clippers.

So what's jumped out to you in this first week it's

been an incredible week that Milwaukee Bucks are on pace to win 27 games. Oh my

God. Just as you predicted in our in our preview show last week.

I already want to go back.

I said this, I think almost verbatim,

when we redrafted our last three draft classes.

And oh, baby, are the young players fun and

exciting and I'm sure we'll get to that today and next week and over the next coming

months and it's just first-year players second-year players third- players. And we talked about that draft class,

and I said something along the lines of,

well, we recorded and we forgot that Chet Holmgren existed

because he didn't play a second the year before. And as we recording I was like oh my god I got a draft Chet Holmgren

He's he's relatively high for me, but I don't know what to do with him after the first couple of players that we kind of agreed upon.

And I said, Cody, I said, we're going to watch Chet play like one game and go, whoops, he should

be at the top of the board with Victor Wembanyama and anyone else.
