What did you see in the NBA tonight, Camille Davis? Man, normally overtime is like an exciting thing and you're ready for it but in the preseason it feels a little

different like a oh okay we got extra basketball cool cool cool cool I'll never forget they

Rick Carlisle blew a game on purpose one time just to not have preseason for the for the

maverick and then we went to post game media afterwards he goes I was just glad that we didn't

have to play up overtime.

And pre-states, like, no one wants that. So we'll talk about that. I want to talk about why we play some of these games. And we'll hear from all kinds of hosts throughout all. We have one of our lockdown local experts for every single one of these games because we cover all of them. So we'll talk about each of these games. We'll play Count it Up,

but we count out

the most interesting,

fun things in the NBA.

But let's start with this one,

Camille.

The Dallas Mavericks against the Utah Jazz. One of the few games tonight where we actually saw starters on multiple sides of the ball here. We saw Anthony Davis start. We saw Cooper Flagg obviously start. Ace Bailey on the other side, Larry Markinen for the Utah Jazz. And the story I think out of this one is probably going to be, if you're a Mavericks fan or if maybe an NBA fan, about Anthony Davis playing the five. We'll get into that a little bit later. But if you're just a fan of basketball in general, Cooper Flagg versus Ace Bailey was one where you're like, all right, maybe I'm turning this one on because I'm interested to see that. Well, you got 21 minutes of Cooper Flagg.
