| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to another episode of Smallball with Kenny Bicham. |
| 0:09.3 | Ladies and gentlemen, I'm so excited to be here. |
| 0:11.1 | And I got a lot to get to today. |
| 0:13.4 | We're going to talk about the end of the season. |
| 0:15.2 | We're going to answer some of your questions. |
| 0:16.8 | I got all defensive teams. |
| 0:18.4 | Yeah. |
| 0:19.0 | Last week we dropped an episode where we answered your questions |
| 0:21.3 | and one of the main responses I got, whether it be on Twitter or in the comment section, outside of people calling me crazy for my all NBA teams. The other thing was, Kenny, what about all defensive? So I went through the archives. I went through the footage. I went through whatever, and I'm giving my rough draft of what my all defensive teams could look like at the end of the season. So that was |
| 0:37.6 | really fun. I'm going to talk about some of the hot teams across basketball. But I want to start |
| 0:41.9 | off by talking about how much of a drag this part of the season has been. And I'm trying to figure out |
| 0:48.0 | if it's a me thing. Is it an NBA thing? I just, I don't know. Growing up, my dad was an NFL fan first and a Bulls fan second. Not an NBA fan, but a Bulls fan second. But one thing he always did is post All-Star break. That is when he started to care more about the NBA. Like my dad's definitely a casual fan. And again, I've always said the casual is not a negative connotation like people on Twitter try to make it out to be where I can't expect him to sit down on December 7th to watch Clippers versus Jazz. You know, that's just not something he would do. But post All Star Breakers when he started to care more about the league. Maybe not again sitting down to watch these games, but maybe watching some highlights. I used to get text from Pop's like, did you see so-and-so game? And I'll be honest with you. |
| 1:28.8 | I ain't really got many texts from him since the All-Star Break. |
| 1:32.5 | And I don't know if that's because the league ain't really hitting, |
| 1:35.9 | or I don't know if it's just Pops been too busy. |
| 1:37.8 | The only text I got from Pops about the NBA, |
| 1:39.9 | because we still, me and Pops still be talking, |
| 1:42.0 | made it seem like we just estranged, you know, |
| 1:50.6 | one text, the one text he did send me post all-star break was 77 points. That was in the middle of that, bam, outbreak of 83 points. That was the only time I really heard from him about the NBA. |
| 1:55.8 | So he's, he's like not attached to it right now. And I can't even call it crazy because there are so many teams across the league that |
| 2:03.5 | you could just pencil land for a loss. |
| 2:07.2 | And as y'all know, I'm a pro-tanking guy because of the team-building aspect of it all. |
