I'm I'm All right.

All right.

Welcome to everybody back to Ph.LY. Sissue podcast.

We've got a rarity here today, a midday show, no game to talk about, and we got Kyle in studio.

Hey, you doing, Kyle.

I'm very out of the habit now of being here in the office with you.

I see you at the arena from time to time, but it's gone from seeing you every single day to only talking to you on

Zoom.

So nice to be back here.

There's some friendsgiving activity out in the PHLY offices that I forgot to bring my thing

that I set out on my counter this morning.

So I'm going to have to abstain from our festivities today.

But other than that, things are going swimmingly for me, I would say. You were you going to cook food or just buy stuff from the grocery? I'm very much to buy stuff. I guess you'll never know there. It's a mystery that will live on forever. All right. So I think there's a bunch to talk about. And we've had Kyle on the previous two shows to talk about the games.

We're obviously going to talk way more about that here to get more of Kyle's perspective. If you're unaware of Kyle's perspective, he has been writing about the games, go to all phly.com. You can get his instant reactions there. We will get a little more in-depth here. Before that, you know, one of the players that we talked about a lot before the season,

Zach Levine, he has been brought back up in the trade rumor mill, the reporting,

and I'm going to sort of like summarize it.

I don't have the report directly in front of me, but that there are interest or acknowledgement from both sides that a trade might be explored from the Bulls and Levine's

camp. So it sounds like there is a possibility he has moved. Again, we've talked about

Levine quite a bit here. Is there anything that has maybe caused you to change your stance and

where do you stand on overall just acquiring Zach Levine? Yeah. So I think, Derek, you and I are probably still on the same page where ideal world,

and I would say most people is ideal world, you want to get a two-way guy if they're making

a big trade this season, someone who.
