0:00.0	In definitely is the nothing personal word of the day. Good morning. It is the last day
0:24.2	of February, February 28th, 2023. And definitely is what LeBron James is looking at with his
0:32.5	new foot injury. Apparently hurt the hurt his foot when the Lakers were playing the Mavericks.
0:39.7	Part of that ridiculous nothing personal pick of the day debacle where the Lakers came back
0:45.8	from 27 points down to beat the flapless, hapless, terrible Dallas Mavericks. What was I even thinking
0:55.4	on a side note, Coco? Kyrie just doesn't bring anything good to Luca other than lack of ability to
1:03.9	win. Maybe there's time. But the Lakers on the other hand, instead of bringing in Kyrie,
1:09.4	still found a way to get rid of Westbrook at the deadline. They found a way to help LeBron.
1:15.4	They brought in D'Angelo Russell, Malik Beasley, Mo Bomba. What about that guy, Rui Hachi Mura? He's good.
1:22.6	Jared Glory of Vanderbilt. What about him? Lakers were all excited. Ready to go. LeBron said,
1:29.7	these are the 23 most important regular season games of my life. And then that's it. An unfortunate

1:57.8	When we turn into months, that's bad two to three months instead of eight to 12 weeks. It's sort of
2:02.7	like when you're saying the age of your child, how is your child? 22 months. All right, almost two
2:08.3	years old. When your child's three and a half, you don't say, how is your child 42 months?
2:13.1	Eventually, you go to three years. Then eventually you go to, hey, it's almost six. Turning eight,
2:19.6	you change your language depending on the age. How is your child three weeks old?
2:25.0	Sometimes when it stays, how's your child? 10 days old? You don't say a week and a half. You say
2:29.8	10 days. So literally, it starts from the beginning of birth and goes on. And that's the same with
2:34.3	injuries day to day. That's the first kind of injury. Could be a couple days. Look at it about a
