Hello, welcome to the Who Collective Podcast. We talk about the NBA, which we're doing on Monday afternoon.

I'm in Phoenix, where I've been at the Sun's Media Day. We're going to have a number of folks

join the pod today who've been just first in Media Days around the country. But first,

we're joined from Camden, Massachusetts, where the Celtics were today, Tim Bunteps.
