Welcome to the winner NBA show. I'm Chris Vernon joining me as he does every Tuesday as Kevin O'Connor

calmness for the ringer. What's up, Kev? Chris Clay Thompson scored 60 last night, man.

That's tough.

Team Kerr making me stay up late to watch Kevon Looney and whoever he had in the game that

was not Clay Thompson after he got to 60th point. I'm very resentful of Steve Kerr. I think

as many NBA fans probably are this morning. I really want to see him go for 70 at least.

Yeah, I did too, but at the same time, I don't want to be that guy, but I get it. I mean,

they have a busy schedule coming up. You wouldn't want to compromise that the health of one of

your best players, one of your four best players. But yeah, it would have been nice to see that.

But look, this team, we talked about this a couple weeks ago, Chris, they're going to have nights like this when

they score a ton of points. And eventually they're going to have a night where they score a lot of points. And it's like actually a close game.

calves and the warriors. And so they immediately go out and just beat the crap out of somebody on national television.

Yeah, I mean, that wasn't necessarily saying like that they're not going to win because I still think in my,

I mean, there's a clear favorite I think for me. But the middle class is looking pretty good. I think they've they can at least make it a little harder on

them perhaps. Well, even last year, I mean, I think a lot of people would, you know, it's so funny because the warriors dropped that 3-1 lead and it became a

meme and it became a joke and it still remains like even if you're watching like college football game day, there's like still a sign every

week that says the warriors blew a 3-1 lead. That being said, everybody forgot that Oklahoma City had them dead derites. It's all I kind of feel like Oklahoma City

totally got off the hook last year. Yeah, that is a little bit weird when you think about it. I wonder, I wonder if that would be more of a
