| 0:00.0 | Come up on today's podcast. We are loaded. Austin Rivers is going to talk about his time transitioning from |
| 0:15.7 | expected star to role player to almost out of league back to good role player. Van Lathen on the |
| 0:21.6 | Brian Flores story and some super bowl stuff with his now Cincinnati Bengals. I'm going to go |
| 0:26.6 | through all 30 teams until you're in or out on their top players and life advice. As we get |
| 0:32.5 | closer to the end of football, I thought you know it'd be great. Let's run through the entire |
| 0:36.8 | league for 50 plus games in. I'm going to tell you how I feel about almost every significant player |
| 0:43.5 | for all 30 teams. You're like, wait a minute, how long is this podcast? How many parts? I only saw one |
| 0:47.4 | part. Like, no, we're not doing a seven part here. We're going to do one part and I'm going to run |

| 1:11.9 | here we go. I'm going to go by standing as of last night, starting to eat Chicago to Rosen in. |
| 1:16.8 | Didn't like the contract and he's been incredible. Levine wasn't always in with him. Didn't love |
| 1:21.0 | decision making in now. Lonzo ball in. I guess I could go Vouch. I didn't really want to say out |
| 1:25.7 | about Vouch. I kind of like Vouch, but I also kind of don't sometimes Miami Jimmy Butler in. If |
| 1:32.2 | you tell me he's top 10, I'm out Kyle Lowry in for what he brings to a team watching it out. |
| 1:37.7 | Bam all the way in. Speaking of just absolutely in as in maybe not peak first team in, but MB |
| 1:45.0 | is in not just because the way he's played. Yes, I know at times during late game situations, |
| 1:50.1 | they'll run a double and it may turn the ball over every now and then I'm okay with it. All right, |
