I'll be to start here because we haven't talked in a week and I think the last episode we did was just like power ranking.

So we actually really haven't talked about the playoffs and like how they've come about so far.

Has this second round been terribly interesting to you so far?

And look, the Embedin injury took all of the juice out of the Miami-Filly series.

But even that.

So let's focus on that for one second.

Joel Embed goes down.

Okay.

There was no talk of like, well, the Sixers traded for a guy that was allegedly

a top, you know, some people maybe allegedly still consider him allegedly a top

10 player.

Like, can he fulfill, you know, years worth of blown potential and put a team on his back against what some people seem to

believe is a beatable Miami team. I think we both feel like they are beatable. There was not even

any of that discussion because everybody was like, no, they're going to get rolled. And guess what's

happened through two games? They've gotten rolled.

So I guess it's like, yes, the Embed injury sucks.

100%.

It stinks.

I get that.

But in other contexts, in other years with other teams, a top player goes down.

And it doesn't necessarily mean like the playoff series is like, poof goes up and smoke.

This one one it did
