| 0:00.0 | This is an I-Heart podcast. |
| 0:13.2 | Let's move to the Central Division. |
| 0:14.8 | We'll start with the Milwaukee Bucks. |
| 0:16.6 | Milwaukee Bucks get a solid C, not a C plus, not a C minus, but a C. They have the third best record |
| 0:22.8 | in the East, but I think probably the most disappointing team in the division if the Pistons did not |

| 1:18.0 | that a lot of people didn't trust it. It's been great for me so far. What I'm going through |
| 1:23.7 | now normally happens during the off season. when nobody hears that my knee is swollen. |
| 1:32.6 | I still work out. Rest doesn't do it any good. It's just building it back slowly. What? |
| 1:40.9 | So Chris Middleton, you would imagine telling on himself, probably not the best strategy, |
