Hello and welcome to the game theory podcast. I'm your host Sam Vastini.

0:38.0

We are presented by The Athletic today on the show.

0:40.8

Good friend of the program, Danny Leroux is in the building.

0:44.1

I'm going to start with like five minutes on the NBA finals.

0:46.6

I'll explain why I'm not like diving deep into the finals here on this show

0:51.2

2:03.2

talking and talking about the finals is that I'm in the middle of this crazy draft guide thing that I have
