Geico.com for a free rate quote. It was a busy weekend much to be on top of if you were interested in the world of sports.

0:18.0

The NFL draft completes itself. We obviously broke down the first round of the NFL draft on Friday show. You had a lot of NBA action, a lot of the NHL playoff action.

0:28.5

I was last night in the Winnipeg Jets and Nashville Predators game that went into double overtime. I took the boys. We had a we had a really good time there.

0:37.5

Talk a little bit about that the environment what hockey at a high level is like as you move into the NHL playoff.

0:45.5

And why I think it's vastly superior to the product that the NBA puts on the court. But we begin with LeBron James surviving game seven.

0:54.5

I said before this series started that the Indiana Pacers had a 0% chance of winning the overall series. And then on top of that after game one when the Pacers won by 18.

1:05.5

I came back and said, you know what? Am I been wrong here? I apologize. I will do a live show from Indianapolis if the Pacers can find a way to win this series. And boy oh boy. Did they almost find a way to win this series.

1:18.5

Pacers are the better team. And I say that. And I think even Cleveland Cavalier fans listening to me this morning are kind of nodding their head.

1:28.5

LeBron was the superior individual player on either team. And he refused to let the Cavaliers lose this series. But the Pacers were better.

1:40.5

The Pacers were the better team. If Ola Depot doesn't vanish in games four and five and go I think over a stretch there seven for 35 from the field.

1:53.5

The Pacers the the Cavs are eliminated Pacers win this series. And yes, you can give some credit to the Cavs for the Ola Depot defense.

2:01.5

But a great player like him in general should not go seven for 35. And so as watching that game on game seven. I felt also down the stretch. And I know there were a lot of bang bang calls. But I felt also down the stretch.

2:16.5

What I told you from the get go in game five. We saw it and in game seven. I think we saw it again. Well, Brian James is going to get the benefit of any close call.

2:25.5

And the NBA officials. I don't think there's some sort of a mysterious directive from Adam Silver. But I think the NBA has always been a league that favors the superstar.

2:37.5

And in order to beat a superstar, you have to be substantially better than he is. And I thought there's more better over the course of this series.

2:47.5

Obviously they blew out the Cavs twice for two of their four victories and two of their three victories and the Cavs four victories were all fingernail biting victories.

2:57.5

I mean, they could have gone either way every single game that the Cavs one could have gone the other way and every game that the Cavs one LeBron James had to be transcendent.

3:07.5

And and Olatipo had to be just okay. And or bad in order for the Pacers to lose. So I think the future if you are a Pacers fan is very bright.

3:19.5

I think I mean, you look at this series now against the Toronto Raptors game one. The Cavs are six point underdogs.

3:28.5

And the Raptors are favored to win this series. Now you may be of the opinion. You know what? I'll never bet on the Raptors of freaking Canadian team going up against LeBron James.

3:38.5

But I'm really intrigued to see what happens in the first game in this series on Tuesday because here's the other thing when you look at the sketch out of the seven game series.
