| 0:13.5 | Welcome to the Daily Ding. |
| 0:15.6 | Happy Thursday, everybody. |
| 0:17.6 | I'm your host, Andrew Schlect, with me is's my good friend, Will Gilleri, Will. |
| 0:23.0 | We had some good basketball tonight in the NBA. Yes, last week, it wasn't so fun trying to figure |
| 0:28.5 | out how we could put the pie together. Tonight, it was a lot of fun. We had some great games, |
| 0:33.9 | some great shots. Man, I'm just happy to be on the pod because we got a lot to talk about let's start |
| 0:38.8 | in sacramento where the kings win 95 94 against the dallas mavericks on a just a tremendous shot |

| 1:43.2 | And Metu came through and hit the shot, just like |
| 1:45.9 | you said, as a win they needed. They're one of like 18 teams that's chasing that playing |
