All right, we've got a big show coming up here today.

We're going to start off with Evan Wash, the executive vice president of basketball strategy

and analytics for the NBA.

We actually had him on a half time of the NBA cast talking about how the play internament

is shaping up what the NBA did in terms of research before they implemented it, what

effect it's had on competitiveness so far this season.

So it's got a nice 10 minute or so interview with Evan here.

Then we get into our locker room chat as well.

Apologies for the audio quality there.

We had to do it with our Bluetooth headphones on our usual microphones because the locker room

desktop client was having some technical issues.

So hopefully that audio quality isn't going to be too bad, but we figured we at least give

it to you.

And if you don't like it, well, they'll have other podcasts coming up.

Let's start here with Evan Wash, the executive vice president of basketball strategy and analytics

for the NBA.

Thanks for having me.

Hey, this is the place to be broadcasting an awesome game.

And so we wanted to have you on to talk a little bit about the play and obviously most

relevant, perhaps, to these grizzlies who are in the inaugural playing game a year ago.

And so I wanted to talk to you.

Obviously our listeners, our viewers know what the play is at this time.
