Speaking basketball podcast, my name is Ben.

Welcome back.

Today we are officially, finally, in the second half of the season.

I don't know how that works. We're in the second half of the season, but there are 25 games left in the season.

So I guess we're not really in the season.

So I guess we're not really in the second half.

You know what I mean.

The all-star break is over.

The season finale, the finish line is now in front of us,

about 25 games left for most teams that final quarter

pull stretch of the year which can get funky some teams will you know rest players or try to try to get rookies and young guys more minutes and

can get hazy but one thing that's not hazy is that the Milwaukee Bucks are

really good and the Bucks they won last, first game off the All-Star break, pushing them to

47 and 8, which means they need to go 23 and 4 in the final 27 games to become the third NBA team ever to win 70 in a season and that is

realistic of course because if you do some quick back of the map back of the napkin

math which I know most of you have probably already done they just

need to play at the exact same pace they're playing at to hit 70 wins.

Whether it will happen or not whether they can grind out you You rest players sometimes in the last game or two

and a couple losses could throw this whole endeavor off track. But if they get into the 60s and

they have a game or two to you may see Milwaukee go for 70

wins it's possible it's possible today we're going to bring in Danny LaRue, co-host of Duncked on, Host Real Jam Radio,

Rights for the Athletic, does all kinds of things, hard to keep up with everything that Danny does.
