| 0:00.0 | right. All right, Monroe. Off the list. Who's your next guest? Stanley Johnson. Ah, yes. |
| 0:12.3 | At number five Stanley Johnson, they picked him at number eight in 2015. Oh, Stan Van. |
| 0:21.6 | Remember. Thank you, Tommy. Stan Van. This was a year after we were all still very sensitive |
| 0:29.9 | about it. Him taking Luke Khanart, who had Harrison Ford's kneecaps over Donovan Mitchell |
| 0:37.7 | and even bigger mistake. Stanley Johnson, wasting a top 10 pick when you could have had, wait |
| 0:46.0 | for it. Devon Booker. Oh, you know, next guest. You actually took my next guest. What was |
| 0:58.6 | a Khanart? Luke Khanart. You know, we had a conversation about this because Khanart at least |
| 1:03.9 | still played and started. We actually exited him from the list at number 10. So I'm going |

| 1:51.0 | on to Tukumpa. But what is he ever done? Johnson family. All right. Who's your next |

| 2:05.2 | Weaver um for us, please? All right. Go ahead. I want to go with Killian Hayes. Rico Beards |
| 2:11.7 | on Fire people. Killian Hayes at number seven on the draft bus list. And while it's maybe |
| 2:19.1 | too early to write him off, the problem is you took Killian and passed up on Tyrese Halliburton, |
| 2:27.0 | who's already in all star. Killian Hayes. Factually, the worst shooter in basketball, a career, |
| 2:34.1 | 37% from the field, 27% from three. Ouch. Rico Beard, your next guest. |
| 2:43.9 | Hmm. Can I, David? Can I call a friend here? Kenny. David. Don't ask Kenny. I mean, |
