Cam Schlittler will be towing the rubber this weekend.

When does Cam Schlittler pitch again? I have it written down and I know I lost it. Isn't it tomorrow? It's tomorrow. Yeah, because I got Cam online to open the Subway Series on Friday night. And we'll get rode on Saturday in the Subway. That's right. That's the way things are lining up. And because Nolan McLean is pitching tonight for the Mets, I have him missing the subway series

by making his next start in the Detroit series

and not pitching in the Subway Series against the Yankees. But you do have the Yankees against the Brewers. All games are playing important games. Every game's important because they're trying to get out of the hole they created. They take on the Diamondbacks and obviously the Knicks trying to take a stranglehold on the series against the Sixers. But the most important thing this weekend is the NBA lottery. There is another franchise that plays basketball in this town, even if only 12 to 15 people care about them. Since you mentioned it again. Oh, Jesus. You're doing a Sim Lottery again? Sorry. Where am I picking? Seven. Seventh, okay. Here's what I want to know, Tiki, because every time we've ever talked about the NBA lottery, you've always told me that it is fixed. And you know that it will be fixed a certain way. So you know who's in the lottery. You've got the teams in front of you. As we sit here on Friday, May 8th, 48 hours ahead of the lottery, why don't you just spoil it for us and tell us who's winning the lottery and where will my beloved Brooklyn Nets pick? This won't hurt you as much as some other teams would. Golden State. Golden State's winning the lottery? Yep. I mean, what a disgrace.

And where are the nets? That's my pick. And where are the nets picking? I'm going to say the nets are picking third. I would be very happy about that, by the way. You're going to be very... You're going to be very... I like five players in this draft, so I could technically talk myself into being okay with the top five pick. Right. But I'd rather win the lottery.

I'd rather just have it.

So you say the Warriors. How about you, Sean? Who's winning the lottery this week? I think Memphis is they ship John Morant down. NBA does them a little gift save basketball in Memphis here. Grizzlies. And where do the Nets pick? I was with Tiki third. Third. Okay. I think that the Washington Wizards will win the lottery. Yes. And I think the Nets are getting screwed. We're going to pick seventh. Seventh? Yeah. That's right. You can't sit through that. You can't pick seventh. Second straight you're doing this. Just watch. I mean, what do you want me to tell you? Want me to tell you there's a tooth fairy? You're going to tell you everything's going to be okay? You want me to tell you this tooth fairy?

You want me to tell you everything's going to be okay?

I want me to patch a little head and tell you everything's going to be okay? Or do you want me to tell you the truth? I'm going to tell you the truth about what it's like rooting for certain teams in this town. You want me to do that for you? You're not a jet fan, Sean, but you are. Okay, you are.

So there's your little truth.

Your little truth bomb.

How was he a jet fan?

Because he roots for the next. But you are. Okay? You are. So there's your little truth.

Your little truth bomb. How is he a jet fan? Because he roots for the Nets. They're basically the Jets on steroids. No, no, no. I have seen my team play in two NBA finals. Oh, glorious, too. I watched the documentary about that last night to try to get myself. My juices going, yeah. About the O2 run. and really how brilliant that turnaround was.

Love those great years.

Yeah.

All right, so maybe about the O2 run. And really how brilliant that turnaround was.

Love those great jersey.

Yeah.

All right, so maybe we're not the Jets, but it ain't good.

My finals run that Evan and I went to and back-to-back games. That was the O3 run. O'3 run. Yeah. You know, I was thinking about the O2 run from this perspective, and it involves the Knicks.

I'll bring it back to the basketball people care about.
