Obviously, we wait with bated breath on if Ogeonanobie's going to play today, if O'Giananobie's going to play on Sunday, and when we'll see him again. So after we signed off, the update on O'G. Anobe, seemed to be really good. In fact, Ian Begley, who's going to join us a little bit later on, so we'll get in more detail, said that there's optimism. He wrote, that's the general thought. Optimism that the worst case scenario has been dodged.

0:23.8

The feeling is that this is not a major hamstring issue

0:27.4

in that he could actually play tonight.

0:30.2

He could actually play Sunday.

0:33.0

Well, it's exactly what we predicted.

0:35.0

Game time decision.

0:36.2

I call BS on this stuff.

0:38.0

I mean, you probably are right.

You know, I look over at the Western Conference, the Oklahoma City Thunder, have not lost the playoff game yet. And maybe there's a confidence and an arrogance of we can just tell you the truth.

And that's the fact that Jalen Williams is out with a grade one hamstring issue. We're better even if we don't have him. Yeah, it doesn't matter. We're going to start A.D.

1:26.2

And I think the thunder are just telling you the truth.

1:28.2
