0:00.0	Hi, I'm Dan Feldman. We've got a lot of great stuff going on at Dunc Dunn Prime.
0:04.3	We have six episodes a week ad-free, including one with Nate and John Hollinger.
0:09.9	We've got the Daily Dunks. We have the Daily Dunks audio. We have salary cap sheets and much more.
0:16.3	We also have this episode that you're about to listen to. Ad-free. If you enjoy it,
0:20.8	maybe consider signing up. You can join Dunc Dunn Prime at Dunc Dunn. That's supporting cast.
0:26.4	Dan FM. I welcome on to a Thursday edition. We got some news that's piled up and then
0:32.2	got a fun topic to get. This is actually something that was suggested by a listener that we go back
0:39.3	and actually look at our judgments of some of the worst contracts in the NBA and see how those
0:44.4	actually ended up turning out, whether we were right about them or not, because our rule always
0:49.6	was that they had to go for at least two years. So we decided to take them up on it and go back and

1:27.6	that you have to leave the game, you're probably looking at an absence of at least a week possibly
1:32.6	more. He said, oh, if it was the playoffs, I could have come back, but whether he could have or
1:36.8	not, it looks like he's going to miss some time now. It really is shame because he was,
1:41.2	had been fantastic. Much now will fall on Anthony Simon's, but there really is not a tertiary
1:48.0	creator. I guess that's going to be Jeremy Grant at this point. This also means that Keon Johnson
1:53.8	is really going to have to be forced into back up point guard duties. Maybe they'll have justice
1:58.3	winds low. Do some of that as well. Maybe they'll try to get more scoring from Shade and Sharp on
