0:00.0	thinking basketball podcast my name is Ben welcome back to another episode.
0:13.0	And today, Cody is back.
0:15.9	We're gonna talk about some NBA hoops.
0:18.9	I'm running on fumes.
0:20.3	I actually, we just started the show.
0:21.6	I didn't even realize consciously that we had
0:23.4	started recording the podcast yeah what are we talking about today
0:30.3	do we I think we're to spend the entire time breaking down the brawn James's ascent to 40,000 points?
0:36.4	I think that that was the plan for today right?
0:39.3	Stop it. We're not doing that. We're not doing that. We're fresh off the heels of an Oklahoma City Thunder
0:44.4	video. We talked about them last time. That was really interesting. It was really

1:48.8	So I think in terms of how good they are. Yeah, I think they're gonna make a ton of noise in the off season but when we talk about in terms of like are they going to win a championship
1:55.9	I think that's where we reframing the conversation last time would I be surprised if they were in the
2:00.7	finals no would I be surprised if they were in the finals? No, would I be surprised if they were in the
