Hey Russell remember me.

Hey Russell, hey how you doing?

Russell, remember me?

Yeah, swirly whirlies.

Russell, remember dunking my head in the toilet with poop in it?

Not so funny now.

Oh, wait, why are you talking behind my back?

Say it to my face.

Oh, you got a video of me with my head covered in poop.

Try to rub poop on me now. See what happened. No, try to rub poop on me. See what happened. I dare you. Rub poop on me. No, come on, rub poop on me. What? You don't want to smoke? Don't you coward out? Come on! A! Who! Podcast listeners!

This is a special episode for you.

We've got a full squad here in the factory test along with Skeets, Trey Lee, and of course, J.D.

We'll talk Kyrie and a whole lot of NBA rumors in a little bit. But first, we turn to an old friend to prep us for the NBA draft that takes place on Thursday, June 23rd. John Hollinger,

of course, has seven years leading the Grizzlies front office. But more importantly,

he watches every college international and G-League player play basketball. He even goes down to watch the OTE here in Atlanta, an alternative league to the NCAA or G-League. Man, this guy does it all. We tried to get him in studio, but he's got so many deadlines coming up for the athletic. He'll be live blogging the draft, I'm sure. He's so busy, so we thank John Hollinger for joining us. What's going on, John? Thanks for having me on the athletic. He'll be live blogging the draft, I'm sure. He's so busy, so we thank John Hollinger

for joining us. What's going on, John? Thanks for having me on the show. I'm just sweltering in the dark here in the Atlanta heat, just like you guys. That's what we do. All right, let's just start right at the top of the draft, John. We've got our Shams Sharana reporting that Auburn's Jabari Smith, a virtual lock to go in the top two in the draft, and he's only worked out for those two teams, the magic and the thunder. But according to Shams, he remains a favorite to go number one. So let's just get to the question everybody wants to know. Is Auburn's Jabari Smith going number one, John? I actually think there's a decent chance Chad Holmgren ends up being Orlando's pick.

Wow. is Auburn's Jambari Smith going number one, John? I actually think there's a decent chance.

Chad Holmgren ends up being Orlando's pick.

Wow.

I just feel like the story adds up.

The story adds up a little bit.

They love length.
