Ah!

Good afternoon.

We're just talking to him before the growl.

In case you didn't know, we do a little thing called Before the Growl before the show starts at about 10 minutes to noon. And M says she wants whimsy on the show today. Whimsy! Damn it. I'm not against whimsy. Be whimsical. Yeah, I'm not against whimsy at all. I'm pro-whimsie. Man, I cannot not against Wimsy at all.

I'm pro-wimsy.

Man, I cannot wait for this game.

I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a regular season game.

The Thunder of 1, 15 of 16, the Lakers of 1 13 of 14.

Last time we were here in Oklahoma City is when I lost it.

Yeah.

When they threw Luke out for no reason. And remember, that was one of those baseball series mace where we were here in Oklahoma for two games. Yep. And in the first game, we beat the Thunder by 20. In the second game, Luca hit a shot. We were up by one. And then they threw him out for no reason. I don't care. That was when I said that. Michael said the referee made a mistake. He thought that Luca was talking to him not to a fan. So then you throw him out, you air on the side of stupid. Yep. By the way, they rescinded that technical way. 9 a.m. Pacific the next morning. Yeah. It was already rescinded. Already rescinded. So tonight, let's go. I'm a little nervous with no Marcus Smart. Marcus Smart is out tonight with that bad ankle. Yep. If we had him, I would outright pick the Lakers to win. Now I think the Lakers need to play almost a perfect game, but they can do it. They've been great lately. Yeah, they have been fantastic.

I wouldn't put anything by them right now. And maybe, you know, do you show, I'm going to play, I wasn't going to play this right here, but I am going to play a little bit of it now. Alan Hahn suggested something about tonight's Lakers game against the Thunder that I want to get your take on. I know what you're doing. You're juicing the game up.

That's what we like to do.

We want to make it a big game.

It's, it's what you're doing. You're juicing the game up.
