Summary

For the rest of 2022, we want you to check out more of the podcasts in the Le Batard & Friends Network. Subscribe to the Le Batard & Friends podcast network here. As the Warriors push the Celtics to the brink of elimination, Steph Curry pushes the media to the brink of denying him his deserved Finals MVP. While the mainstream are distracted by these petty squabbles, the Illuminati turn back the clock to a simpler time. The year was 2014. Tom and Amin were a couple of naive, two eyed journalists covering the Heat/Spurs championship rematch, until a broken air conditioner changed everything. With the help of objective observers Izzy Gutierrez and Dan McCarney, we unveil our list of suspects in this conspiratorial whodunit. Subscribe to Basketball Illuminati!

All right, I'm onto you. I mean, I got my third eye open on this whole Kevin O'Connor

0:04.5

snafu. After rewatching it, it makes complete sense that this was all an elaborate setup for

0:12.0

Cinephob that you had this all diagrammed up that you would invite Kevin O'Connor from

0:17.8

the ringer over to your computer. And look at that. A viral moment talking about next

0:23.8

week's Cinephob. I'm onto you. I mean, man, I cannot tell you how much I wish I wished

0:29.4

that were the case, but it was an honest, honest mistake from an honest podcaster. The worst

0:35.4

part was in the moment, I knew how funny it was. So I went along with that technically.

0:40.6

I revealed it. I hadn't said anything. It would have just been something to me and Kevin.

0:44.6

Because you're an honest person. You're all about the truth. Yeah. I get. I'm about the truth,

0:48.6

but I'm also about the funny and I knew it was funny. It's just a funny thing. And again,

0:53.6

I don't want to give away too much because I can't give away the context of the Cinephob episode.

0:58.1

You're just going to have to check it on Thursday, June 23rd, draft day and see what the episode

was about. But it's the particular kind of content that was on my screen that makes it

1:10.0

even more absurd and more funny. But I'll be honest with you, man, like I don't get embarrassed

1:14.2

often. I'm not embarrassed about the 2016 finals prediction. I'm not embarrassed about

1:18.4

last year's in the Buckswood Winner game. I'm not embarrassed about being in a dunk tank.

1:23.6

This was legit embarrassing. Like I was embarrassed and ashamed. And my kids are at the age

1:28.4

now where they start to Google and all I can think about is like, man, this is going
