Let's get drunk. Let's get into it. We have the world series going on. Personally, I don't care. I don't know very many other people who care or at least have a rooting interest in this one. The Celtics and Lakers both stink and of course, college football and pro football await our eyeballs and our

heart. Welcome to mind is three bet along with us won't you a fan dual calm slash minus three. It's the word minus the number three. Make sure you head over and play against us. Everybody at the extra points network cousin Sal on down extra points dot com. The arcade NFL pick them every week. College football pick them every week. Other assorted nonsense. Who in applesauce to bet with us against us so on and so forth. Let's get into this. Let's see how the week

that was has treated Kevin Hensh and Eddie Spaghetti over there behind the glass and also project ahead into this weekend of sports action. What's the poop there? Hensh how you doing? I'm good. I you know it's funny. You mentioned the Celtics and Lakers both sucking that one of the advantages of living on the west coast or disadvantages is by by seven PM your your East Coast basketball team has already lost like so so I'm already processing like

oh I don't have to watch the Celtics this year like they suck like they just they've lost at home to the raptors and the wizards like this team they have two two young stars that you would think it's easy to build around these guys and they're garbage and so by seven o'clock I'm depressed. I'm fully depressed about like what am I going to do with all this basketball time I had set aside. And then the Lakers lift my spirits by sucking even worse than the Celtics like this keeps

happening where I'm like oh my god how am I going to get out of the doll drums. Oh I watch the Lakers blow a 26 point lead at Oklahoma City. You're playing the worst team in the league. You're up by 26 and then it's like when it couldn't get any better then like I'm like Jesus. They blown up they blow most of this lead. Well they've blown all of this lead. Wow they're trailing holy shit they could lose this game. So the end of that of that Laker stunder game as a you know if you're a Laker Hater

this this this should be like you're a screen saver for you the last minute of this game because they get first Russell Westbrook gets a good look at a time three. But of course we know there's no such thing as a good look for Russell Westbrook if he's behind the three point line. And you know I've I've always thought that worse than an air ball is that shot that hits back crime.

Watch like the crotch like it's it's both long and wide left like it just kind of clangs in the crotch of the rim in the backboard like just a fucking colossal brick. It's where you would expect your ball to hit if you had to shoot from half court. And that's also Westbrook on every open three point.

Maybe made through that entire example Eddie Spaghetti without once saying you're familiar with those check you shoot those all the time. You know what you know we're maturing Kevin Hunch and I appreciate that respect if you if you're unguarded you had a pretty sweet stroke if anyone was in within five feet of you obviously you're probably not going to draw iron. But so anyway so that's the first delightful thing. I mean I also Westbrook by the way what you know

Mello Anthony just moved into the top 10. He's ninth. He's ninth all time in career scoring in the NBA. Is there any evidence that since he left Syracuse he's ever helped the team win a game like I there's no like there's no discernible evidence. So and then it's like okay. It's like to me for real. I know Carmelo has a different pedigree than Kerry Collins. But when I saw that he had gotten into the top 10. It really and I know it's been around there for a while.

But it really is sort of like I think 20 years from now we'll look back and be like Carmelo Anthony is one of the top 10 scores in the history of pro basketball. It's sort of like when you look up when you're going down the top 20 passing yard leaders in the history of people in pro football you're like Kerry Collins is in that really it is just about that level.

Perfect analogy and and yet and yet people I think sort of share your view of the underwhelming career of Collins. But people really hold Mello in very high esteem and including a LeBron I guess because there's no way anybody arrives on the Lakers without clearing it with the actual boss LeBron James.

So Mello is already in the twilight you know headed to the Hall of Fame as this guy who scored a ton of points without ever helping his team and then Russell Westbrook arrives.

He's a guy who gets triple doubles with no evidence that he helps his team like I know that like he puts up he stuffs a statue with no evidence that it helps his team.

Anyway, so he delivers this colossal brick. Then Malik Monk gets a contested look for another game time three air ball.

Then Thunder rookie giddy Australian I think he throws the ball directly to Mello for a third crack at the game time three Mello also shoots an air ball.

Moments later the thunder up five stealing in bounce pass and the kid has a breakaway dunk and he dunks it because it's fun to dunk and it's fun to win your first game of the year and it's not like they're up 17 they're up five they're up five and he dunks.

Russell Westbrook loses his mind. He loses his mind at this display of terrible sportsmanship.

Like like what this kid did what was his violin is what Russell Westbrook's last three did to the backboard and he and he gets tossed from the game.

He starts screaming like he wants to fight the guy for dunking with two seconds left in a five point game and it was like and I just like I was cleansed I was cleansed of the Celtic sucking.

I was like oh my god what a nightmare the you remember the end of the graduate when Dustin Hoffman and Catherine Ross are on the bus like what do we just do what what do we do even like each other.

Slow slowly the smiles melting away to like oh Jesus now Jesus what have we done what I just I just left my wedding.

Catherine Ross like I just was getting married I just left my wedding to be with you this weirdo and I LeBron must be going like oh shit did everybody else know that this Russell Westbrook thing was not going to work at all.
