Here's a fun stat. I looked this one up because I got sick of hearing people say that 70% of the time the team that wins game five in an NBA series wins the series. Well, that's true. We, uh, we like to get like elbow deep in the numbers on part of my take. And if you look at it, that, that is a correct step. But the more important step is 83% of the time that a series is tied to to two, that winner of game five goes on to win the series. And honestly, like, I, I would bet that both of these teams that one tonight are probably in the win game six. Yeah. Yeah. And feels like I mean, I could see the sixers maybe rallying at home, but the suns and were I think they're down at half or maybe it was one point game at half. Then they just went nuclear on the maps and in the third quarter, 33 to 14. I thought we were going to get a Chris Paul narrative because he wasn't dominant Chris Paul and we're going to be able to dunk on everyone. We're going to have to wait for that. But yeah, it I agree with you like it feels like the sixers and both the man's got pushed around a little bit beaten a beaten a whopping a mini-wamping inside of a game. And what game six is going to be tough for them to rebound. Yeah, I would say that if both of these teams at once tonight, if the heat and the suns win their game six convincingly, I'll call that a gentleman's want. I think that like the series, like, yes, the other teams have won a couple games, but never wants to feel like the sixers or the Mavericks like had the ability to win the series. Obviously, the sixers is for different reasons, mostly injury related. But we still can stick with the Chris Paul thing because if you look at the way he plays tonight, here's what we can do. We can say that's not going to cut the next round. Yes, I like that. Yeah, because I mean, we're there's six minutes left of the game. It four points, nine assists, which is obviously very good, but that's not going to cut it. Not going to cut it. Listen, not going to play a big boy team in the next round. Okay. And this performance, it's not going to cut it. It wasn't the best night of NBA basketball when the most exciting thing was Chuck and Kenny go into the video board, which I don't know which team you guys are on. LeBron said Chuck won then skip went over the top, which was great. skip skip bailess. He was like, Lebron, you're wrong, Kenny one, like disagree. Skip is so committed to it. He disagrees with Lebron's take of who won. Wait, wait a second. So he responded to Lebron and Lebron saying to sub tweeted him. Yeah, exactly. So he sub tweeted him. Now that's interesting because I think that Skip You've that skip bailiffs may have just given himself up there. I just realized this. Yeah, skip bailiffs doesn't follow anyone on. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, this is just proof. Skip bailiffs has burners. I bad news. They showed LeBron's tweet on the TNT show. Fuck. I thought I was cracking open. I know. I know. I don't want to face right. Like I realize it. And I was like, I've got a mission now for the next like three weeks, which would be to find Skip Bales his burners. And see what the takes that he puts out on the burner. The ones that like he doesn't think are ready for prime time yet. The ones that he's testing out. I still think he might have burners. I still think he might. I just didn't want, I wanted you to be right, but I also don't want you to get dunked on for being wrong in this respect that they did. They showed LeBron's tweet on the jumbo tron, chuckled about it, blah, blah, blah. Which is what LeBron wanted in the first place.

Also I listen LeBron's tweets were better than the games tonight. So people were like, Hey, all you do is mention LeBron, sorry. LeBron won the MVP. LeBron won my baby, Bronov tonight. He won my six man of the night tonight. There's a guys, here's how it goes. goes the guys that are on the desk at TNT, then skip bailiff, then LeBron six. Yeah, look,

what do you want us to do? tonight. Here's how it goes. It goes the guys that are on the desk at TNT, then skip bail

us, then LeBron six. Yeah. Look, what do you want us to do? You want us to break out, break down two blowouts? Like we, I think Kenny still kind of had him. Actually, I think it was almost, it was actually a tie. I'm going to say that. I really do think it was a tie. Yeah, I mean, that even is worse that the most exciting part of the night was a tie

video board. The only other thing I was thinking when it was a tie. Yeah, I mean, that even is worse that the most exciting part of the night was a tie.

Video board. The only other thing I was thinking when I was watching this sun's game is I think Aiton might be the one guy in the league right now where he can, when I watch him play, I'm like, why isn't he always just play like this? Yeah. He feels like he should be able to dominate any game that he's in. Well, he's he's a looks incredible or looks like he's never touched a basketball type of guy. Like some games he'll shoot and you'd be like, what was that? Like he'll miss the rim and the backboard. I think in honor of tonight's just, just awful games, we should, we should award the second weekly Billy football game ball of the night. Yeah. Somebody who probably didn't watch it.

Actually, how about Billy, you and Jake award a co-game ball.

And if you guys both select the same person on the count of three, then that person wins

it.

And if they don't, then the nobody wins the game ball.

Okay.

And hockey wins the game ball for the night.

I like this.

By the way, just before you guys think about it, I've lost my voice. Again,

I said I wasn't going to lose my voice for a month. It actually gets better as the show goes on because we go back in time. This one I can't explain. I just haven't been sleeping. It wasn't yelling. I've literally slept like four hours every night for last five nights, but I'm going to sleep tonight. So I apologize to everyone. You guys ready? Is it basketball only? No.

Is it one of the, I know.

I know one of the night.

That's gonna say.

I feel like, that's my kind of hint.

I'm not gonna spoil it, but I also have that.
