0:06.4	NBA Scout comes on the show to give us his expertise and his insight. He just does it
0:12.2	anonymously.
0:13.0	I'm David Locke. I'm the host of today's edition of
0:16.0	Locked on NBA.
0:18.0	You are locked on the NBA part of the locked on podcast network.
0:27.0	Well the Scout is with us hired by an NBA team comes on our show anonymously. We love it. We are recording this on
