All right, let's talk to Bears Villugo now is with The Athletic. He joins us on the Rood guest hotline. Rood's the most reliable heating and air conditioner products in DMV. And Bear, I kind of wanted to attack it. Get your opinion on this. Well, you know, we're spending a lot of time talking about the NBA draft and the lottery and the Wizards getting it. I kind of look at it this way. The town needed some juice, right? we've been in struggles the Nats

you know playing better than lottery and the Wizards getting it. I kind of look at it this way. The town needed some juice, right?

We've been in struggles.

The Nats, you know, playing better and expected, but a losing team.

The caps missed the playoffs.

The Wizards are tanking.

Commanders' dud season.

The town needed some juice, right?

For sure.

And, I mean, it feels like they're going to have a relevant star player on that team for the first time since they put picked Wall, number one overall, in 2010. I mean, I know Beale was a star and they had Russell Westbrook for a hot minute. But now the number one pick kind of comes into a structure, an infrastructure, a foundation

that Michael Winger and Will Dawkins built over the last few years.

And in a way, it kind of played out perfectly.

Like the picks, the high picks that they had the past couple years,

star at number two, et cetera, kind of weren't good enough and weren't high impact enough

immediately to make them better than the awful, awful, awful team that they were this past year.

So that set them up with the best odds to get number one. And Lux finally fell in a very un-wisards-like way. So I think this is like when was the last time you anticipated a wizard season like you will this fall? I mean, I don't know. I don't know the answer to that. No, that's a great point. I think there's a lot of

intrigue based on who they're going to take here in a few weeks and then how they're going to

use Trey, how they're going to use Davis if he's here. I think he will be here, at least before the

deadline. But I think you're right. I think there's a lot of intrigue on this particular season coming up.

And, you know, I think you're right. I think there's a lot of intrigue on this particular season coming up. And, you know, I think it would have been, obviously, if they had won the lottery last year,

it was such an obvious choice with Flag, or at least it seemed like Cooper Flagg was the no-brainer,

number one. And I guess the way the season played out, that that was the case.
