| 0:02.4 | Kenny, wonderful work on the drop. |
| 0:04.7 | Rico, hello. |
| 0:05.9 | We are ready to roll. |
| 0:08.0 | We will get to the Pistons later on. |
| 0:13.5 | We're going to talk about it because we have some very distinct thoughts about the Pistons. |
| 0:18.1 | But we have got to do something different, Rico, because I feel |
