On today's part of my take presented by Draft Kings, we've got playoffs and we've got a two-fer for the people we have, our good friend, Keith Yandell, getting you ready for NHL Stanley Cup playoffs, starting this weekend. We're going to talk some play in tournament for the NBA. We're going to talk about first round series, which is almost set. We still have the Friday night games. And then we have Francisco Lendor from the New York Metz in studio. And we'll finish with Firefest Great Friday show going for you guys. And it is brought to you by our friends at Chevy. Draft season is here, which means everyone suddenly thinks there is a GM, which is when you realize some picks just makes sense, like having a Chevy Silverado. Silverado has the power to haul pretty much everything. Gear, grills, tailgate setups. So whether you're driving to a draft party, a road game, or towing a boat to the lake,

you need a truck with strength, reliability, and the drive to go the distance. The same DNA you'll find in a Chevy Silverado is capable and dependable as your top tier draft pick. Silverado shows up and gets the job done. It won't flinch when the pressure's on and doesn't take plays off when it comes to trucks. Make Chevy Silverado your number one overall pick. Check out the current offers and build your own Chevy Silverado at Chevy.com.

Okay, let's go. Yeah, pardon my 10. Yeah, pardon my 10. Yeah, pardon my 10. Yeah, pardon my 10. Yeah, pardon my 10. Yeah, pardon my 10. Welcome to part of my take presented by Draft Kings. The crown is yours today is Friday, April 17th. And it's set boys max vs. Hank the Philadelphia 76ers have won the play in game against the Orlando Magic Discicivac it was a decisive victory. I gotta say So I'm in a little bit of a spot because I've said this before many times that I do I think the play in I hate the play in in terms of its like existence that we've now made it. Ten teams get a shot and owners can cling to the fact that they were the 10th team and they got a play out. They played in the playoffs all that. The games themselves do rock. And they, it is funny, fun watching an elimination game, which we watched with the Clippers and Wars, which you can get to. But now the sixers are officially in. I actually, I, I, I agree. I think in theory, the playing game is it's a crocushade. It's a gimmick that was, it was dreamed up to give the owners one more home game and make you think that if you finish in 10th place, you have a shot at winning the NBA title, which you don't. Um, but I think that once you get in. I don't like the people policing the teams and fans celebrating winning to play

in game. Right. Like I think that I think that's a good thing. Like when we had the T Wolves, when it a couple of years ago, it depends on, I think it's organization by organization. Like, so Hornets, Hornets, yes, celebrate the fuck out of that. Absolutely. You guys have had, and they're not even in yet, we'll know on Friday night if they're officially officially in. Right. But yes, the Hornets, that's an organization that should celebrate that. The Blazers, they should celebrate that. The Clippers, no, I mean, they lost, but like no, the Warriors, no, they've been there. They've been there before. Yeah, right. The, the Sixers should celebrate it. Absolutely. Now you get a shot at the Now you got to shot the crown. Yeah, and Max it was a decisive victory. Maxi looked awesome

play in P look pretty good to Andre drumming. Yeah, I'd be better than imbued Mm-hmm Andre drummond I mean Max massive three at the end Andre drummond dagger three Andre drummond love it Andre drummond so Max your pumped back was rocking the bank was rocking What's the name of the stadium L house? It's the Xfinity Center. They just yeah, yeah, yeah everything All happening at the X. Yeah, do you know what's crazy about Andre Drummond is that he and Joe and Peter the same age What yeah, that's crazy. Isn't that fucking wild? You could have won a lot of money off me. They're both 32 years old. Andre Drummond turns 33 in August. Joe and B turned 32. They're like six months apart. Drummond seems so much older. Like he's been around forever. He's been on a bunch of teams. You just see him, you're like, yeah, that guy, he's on his last, like, no, he's 32 years old.

He's my on a bunch of teams and you just see him. You're like, yeah, that guy he's he's on his last like no, he's 32 years old. He's my age. Yeah. Mm hmm. He's younger. I saw someone, um, I showed up my guy, no escalators. He's a, uh, a very good, uh, he's a Yukon fan account and he, he likes put out this tweet that also put me in I mean, it's, well, Andre Drummond's younger than Aaron Judge. That's crazy too. Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, that's more about baseball for the long. put out this tweet that also put me in a smile. Andre Drummond's younger than Aaron Judge.

That's crazy too. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's what I like to think about it.

Right. Put it in showbiz he played in baseball.

Andre Drummond, if we asked everyone before this, we would say he's 36. Yeah. Like, yeah. But yeah, he's on. Yeah, he's he's so Andre Drummond might be better than Joel and bead the sixers max

to and to get the Celtics this year. Andre Drummond is better than Joel and bead.

Right now. or a German might be better than Joel and Bede, the Sixers max, two and two against the Celtics this year.

I'm not gonna lie, say Andre,

German is better than Joel and Bede. Right now, Max question. He's still on the appendix. Max's stability is availability. Max, yeah, Hank took my question, but it was gonna be more, I was gonna let Max answer it, open ended, what your best ability is. Well, this bit is now dead because Hank just did the bit before you.

So I was you can still answer the question.

Are you afraid of answering the other question teams in the playoffs this side of the desk has no teams in the playoffs I yeah, Max you Max I root for a loser you can always just say that about me Okay, I've rooted for the bulls to lose in the plane the last five years I'm very happy the bulls finally tanked and have a 20% chance at the top four pick.

I'm happy that they're in the playoffs. I just I'm not happy that I just have to deal with fuck face hangover here. When obviously they're the better team. They're going to win. If it goes five games, it's a disappointment to the Celtics. That's according to Boston media. Um, and now I just have to deal with it. and like he's just gonna be rubbing in my face
