recapping Sunday, August 9th of NBA Action from the Most Magical Place on Earth.

Shout out to everyone joining us live right now on YouTube

and much love to everybody listening to the podcast on The Athletic Network and Apple and Spotify, wherever you get your No Dungs classics. I'm Jay Skeets and joining us here tonight on a Sunday as always. We got Tasmelis. Pop-pop, people. Pop-pop, Tassie. We got the bearded one, Trey Kirby. Hey, yo. Hey, yo. We have the international man of mystery taking it to the max Lee Ellis.

Frank? We got the bearded one, Trey Kirby. Hey, yo! Hey, yo. We have the international man of mystery, taking it to the max. Lee Ellis. Friends. Mm-hmm. Last but not least, making the magic happen. JD. Hello. There he is, and here we are. Thanks for joining us. Before we start, I did want to send our best to Hall of Famer Paul Westfall, who we learned today, unfortunately,

has been diagnosed with brain cancer. I don't know about you guys. I don't think any of us have had a chance to meet him. Correct me if I'm wrong, but by all accounts, this guy is like one of the most liked people in NBA circles. Dude was a hell of a player, too, if you don't know. a five-time all-star, four-time all-NBA, won a title.

So much love, setting our best to Westfall and his family. And may I add,

a mighty fuck you to cancer. Okay. So it's official. There's going to be a play in series,

guys. The Mega Bowl. It's happening Saturday, August 15th, to determine the final playoff spot in the Western Conference.

The Grizzlies lost to the Raptors, and the Blazers picked up a huge win over Philly.

We're going to get into these games, which means now it's no longer possible for there

to be a four-game difference in the standings.

We're getting the eighth versus the ninth seed in the West, though we don't know who the teams are going to actually be because four teams remain. We lost two today, Tass. The Pelicans, get out of here. Kings, get out of here. But it's still the Grizzlies in the 8th spot despite losing. It's the Blazers in the 9th spot still half game back after beating the Sixers. And then it's the Spurs right there in 10th and the Suns right there in 11th. But let's start with the Blazers huge win because Dame Lillard. Hold on. Let me just squeeze in a joke, let me just squeeze in a joke because I'm not ashamed to repeat a joke I said on Twitter. Yeah, Pels, King's going home.

They're going fishing.

But at least they know they're going to catch something in the Disney River Pond thing that has fish.

Did it on Twitter, but I just wanted to repeat it.
