| 0:00.0 | This is the best of outkick the coverage with Clay Travis on Fox Sports Radio. |
| 0:09.6 | You know who's not in the zone, the NBA playoffs. This is at this point a total disaster. I would like to |
| 0:15.4 | humbly apologize to everyone for arguing yesterday as well as yesterday afternoon on Twitter that |
| 0:20.9 | I anticipated the Celtics being able to give the cabs a game in game one. I thought having played |
| 0:28.0 | aggressively as many games as the Celtics have. The fact that they are coming off of the seven game |
| 0:33.2 | win win in that series. The fact that they had played so many games that matter in the NBA playoffs, |
| 0:39.6 | they went four to two over the bulls. Then they win four to three over the wizards. I thought I |
| 0:46.9 | really did that we were in exactly the perfect position for the Celtics to come out and steel game |
| 0:53.4 | one because the cabs had been on the sideline. Totally resting. The cabs are eight. No, they were |
| 0:58.6 | rolling into a tough situation in Boston garden. I really thought this game would be close. I didn't |

| 1:28.0 | and the warriors 19 and oh so far. Why would you watch the NBA playoffs? Even the NHL game was a blowout |
| 1:36.2 | last night. The senators getting and taking down the penguins with no contest either. But now the NBA, |
| 1:43.3 | the cabs and the warriors are 19 and oh. I think there's a very good shot that both these teams are |
| 1:49.8 | going to be 12 and oh what they enter into the NBA finals and amazingly, if my counting is correct, |
| 1:57.0 | if both these games only go for again, if only four games take place in the Eastern and the |
| 2:02.7 | Western Conference finals, we're talking about a nine day gap between when the Eastern and the |
| 2:08.1 | Western Conference finals end after double four no situations. They are sweeps. You have to wait |
| 2:15.2 | nine days for the warriors and the cabs to start their series. It might be eight days, but I believe |
