| 0:16.4 | All right, talking some NBA playoffs, I think most of you who have been listening know that I am up every night |
| 0:23.8 | watching all of it. I think it's been great so far. There have been some moments like the Celtics |
| 0:28.5 | game the other night that aren't necessarily pleasant to watch, but two incredible games again last |
| 0:34.3 | night. The Pacers have a two-nothing lead over Cleveland after taking the first |
| 0:38.1 | two games in Cleveland, an incredible comeback last night. And then the Warriors, after losing |

| 1:39.1 | trade deadline. And from about that point, I'd say February 8th to the end of the |
| 1:43.5 | regular season, |
| 1:44.3 | and let's throw in the seven-game series against Houston. |
| 1:48.0 | Golden States had the best defense in the league. |
| 1:50.0 | They held Houston to under 100, three times in that series. |
