Hello, welcome to the Who Collective Podcast. We talk about the NBA, which are doing on Sunday afternoon.

Joining us from the center. Some people might call it the Wells Fargo Center, but right now it's just the center in Philadelphia ahead of the Wizard's Sixers game today. It's Tim Botters.

Hello, guys.

Do you call it the center? Do you buy into the propaganda put forth by the Sixers and their frustrations with the naming rights?

I make sure to poke fun at them about it at minimum. Every chance I get.

And joining us from Memphis where he's been for several days, getting right head back to Dallas. He was at the Grizzlies Maverick's game on Saturday night. His band McMahon.

Howdy Partners.

So we're doing this earlier in the day. So there's some stuff that's happened to leave today. We won't know just to recognize that.

One thing we do know is that the Warriors won another big game on Saturday night beating the Yannis at 10, a cup of less bucks in overtime.

Nonetheless, it was another good win for the Warriors who continue to play well at home and not well on the road, say the least.

But something interesting happened pregame. Steve Kerr was asked about a status update on Andrew Wiggins.

And now Andrew Wiggins situation is something that because it's a personal situation hasn't been talked about.

Everyone's given him his space and that is appropriate.

But it has now been gone on over a month and Kerr has been periodically asked about it and he's periodically given roughly the same answer, which is that he will be given his space.

And when he's back, he's back, but he changed his verbiage a little bit on Saturday. And I don't know whether or not something has changed or I don't know whether it's over being overblown, but he's he basically introduced the word if if Wiggins returns.

And so the thing about the Warriors is we've talked about this pod.

They're all of their goals are still there for them despite this preposterous seven and 27 road record or seven and 28 or whatever it is.

And they they continue to be impressive at home and you know right there, but on temps.

With respect to Wiggins and honoring that he's away because he's got something he's got to deal with.

If this is an if with Wiggins, this is a guy who was a vital to their playoff success in their run last year, probably if there was a vote taken, he would have been second on the MVP list for the finals MVP last year.

I don't know to make of this, but I do know if they don't have Wiggins, my viewpoint of the Wizard of the Warriors, changes significantly, even taking into account their home road issues.

Yeah, I mean, look, from the very beginning, when we, you know, I've said a bunch of times that, you know, I think that the Warriors are still my pick despite how dysfunctional their season has been despite the fact that they can't win a road game.
