| 0:32.6 | now ira welcome how are you i am doing good and are waiting for tonight's lottery and seeing how the league's landscape might change. It might change a little bit. I have a feeling. I don't know why. Maybe it's Clyde, but I have a feeling that the Knicks, something good is going to happen for the Knicks tonight. I just got a feeling they're going to move up at least into the top three tonight. I just got a feeling. Well, I mean, the whole thing, Mike, is you only can move to the top three. Those are the random-ad-weighted, so if someone else pushes ahead of them, they move down. So basically, their situation tonight is they can go one, two, or three, or else they can't be better than seven. Right, but I think they're going to get, for some reason, I think they're going to be one, |
| 1:11.1 | I'm not saying one, I just think they're going to somehow land in the top three tonight. And then we're going to have to deal with frozen envelopes all over again, you know, way after the fact. I mean, the one thing, and I want to tell everyone out there, I know, Mike, you know there have been all these stories over the years. people love a good conspiracy theory. |

| 1:50.3 | who do powerball and state lotteries. So whatever happens, I know they'll be the theories after the |
| 1:56.0 | fact because that's where they live that stuff. They love that stuff. Absolutely. People like a good |
| 2:00.3 | conspiracy. |
| 2:01.2 | Yeah, and I'm sure there'll be something coming out of it if the Knicks wind up with a pick. |
| 2:04.5 | But it's a difference maker because where the Knicks are weak and need help, |
| 2:09.1 | this is a point guard draft, Mike. |
| 2:11.5 | And if they get a Mark L'Ail Foltz or Alonzo Ball, it's a game changer for them, |
| 2:16.9 | and might even be a game changer with the |
| 2:18.8 | Carmelo situation, where it'll make them more of a win-now kind of team than honestly |
| 2:24.3 | where your draft, if they wind up at somewhere like seven where they are, yeah, they can get |
