Hello, welcome to the collective podcast. We talked about the NBA, which we're doing on Sunday evening, end of July, the off season.

But we're all backstage side, joining us in New York City is Tim Bondsons.

Oh, there everybody.

Tim's having the off season, if man, he is in the off season mode. That's all I'm going to say.

Joining us from Dallas, Texas, who celebrated his first anniversary this weekend.

And I also think you're in the off season mode there in happy anniversary.

Band Big Man.

How do you partners? I'll pass that on to the IT department. By the way, I got three stories running this weekend.

I'm going to Vegas for Team USA. So I'm not, I don't know if that's the same off season.

All right.

I feel that you are.

Take the same. You can just say all these activities in Vegas, if you so, Jews.

I certainly could. I certainly could if I chose.

Yeah.

Okay. So we've had a slowdown NBA transactions, but there's stuff starting to get moving.

And one of the things we got to keep an eye on here is this is from now until the start of training camp is really extension season.

There are a bunch of players who are eligible for extensions, not all of them are eligible at this moment.

Some of their eligibility deadlines roll out over the next two months.

That has to do with when they signed their last contracts and we're still climbing out of that weird to COVID seasons where some of the dates were altered about.

When their last contracts were signed, they were like translated to the regular calendar.

So they kind of come up weird times.

So not everybody that we're going to talk about is extension eligible this second, but they are going to be extension eligible before the start of the season and into the season in some cases.
