Yo, yo, yo, we live on location.

We had to come at y'all live from here, City, Beautiful in Orlando.

We had to get y'all a little tap in before we started moseying down this playoffs' little

pathway.

Man, we're getting close, Black.

Yes, sir.

What are we looking at, man, right now?

Since Kyrie has got to Dallas, man, I'm not saying his rereads fall, but look, the Mavs then lost four in a row at this point. They out of the playoffs. If the season ended today, they are out. Yeah. What's going on? I don't know. I was rooting for Kyrie and hoping that that situation was going to be a good situation.

I hope it was going to help Luca out.

I was happy for Jake here, happy for Mark Cuban.

But I just, I don't think it's Kyrie and Luca.

I think that they don't have no defenders.

They don't have no rebounders.

And when you just got scorn and no defenders and rebounds, I think it's going to be hard to win in this league. So I think they just need to figure it out, try to get it together and try to make a push to getting the play in because right now they out the playoffs and the way it's looking, they lost their last four games. The way it's looking is these last seven. They're going to have to, with the schedules and what I see.

Losing back to back to Charlotte was tough. Yeah, losing them back to back. To Charlotte was tough. That definitely hurt. But these last seven games, I'm looking at, if they don't go five for, they'll win five out of them seven games, they definitely not in the playoff. Yeah, I agree with you, man. I can't put it on Luke and Kyrie because that is such a small sample of seeing what they

have to offer and what they can be.

And then it's like you said, it's realistically looking at them on paper and when you

looking at them on the court.

It's not enough around them to really make a good judgment of what they can be. And I don't know where to put the blame and, you know, point the thing. But I wouldn't point it at those two guys at this point just because it's such a small sample. And we're not in that locker room or privy to know what's really going on in the dynamics of it. So I wouldn't blame anybody at this point. I would just say it's just the team overall just isn't that great of a situation right now. Maybe it can be better, you know, if Kyrie re-signs and they get the reboot and build something around it. And then him and Luca together can be problems. It just, you know, everything takes some time

and they haven't had a lot of that yet.

Yeah.

LeBron is back for the Lakers.
