And the pod was really funny this week. The victory lap was well earned and hilarious. And speaking of van the wire way down in the hole.

They're in the season three now, vantage mail hell. And that is for me pound four pound the most entertaining wire season and one of my favorite TV seasons.

Ever. And the one I you know, Rocky is the best rocky, but Rocky three was the most entertaining Rocky.

The wire season three is the most entertaining wire season. It's just this. So you can listen to them coming up in one second Steve Kerr and Nathan Hubbard. I'm looking my wounds with the Celtics. I'm upset.

I wanted the bubble season to go better for them. I don't think they've looked that good. I can't believe Brad Watermaker and semi-oasie or plague as much as air. We had three first round picks last year.

We had cap space to find at least veteran minimum people and and Kenba that hasn't played more than 28 minutes left. The team looks all over the place. Some of these teams look like they really haven't played basketball together in four and a half months, which is true.

Other teams look like they've been playing this whole time like Toronto. I don't know what to make of where we're going with the seedings, whether all the stuff even matters. You saw today like the clippers lose to the sons, the box lose to the nets.

I don't know why you would ever bet any favorite during this bubble basketball ever. It feels like we're headed for the weirdest playoffs we've had in the 21st century for the NBA.

Everything is on the table. I was arguing with cousin Sal about this because he thinks that only five teams can win the title. I think like you could tell me nine teams could win the title. I think this is just so weird. It's such a weird atmosphere.

The play in every other day injuries are going to play an even bigger part than usual because I just think we're going to have a lot of them with the frequency of these games. And then it's just it's just got a weird feel to in a good way.

I think it's going to be really unpredictable. I don't you would have told me in the beginning of March.

I would have said the only three teams that have a chance to win the title are the bucks, the quippers and the lakers. Anybody else somebody on those three teams would have had to have a chance.

Now after watching bubble basketball for five, six days, I'm like, I don't know. You could tell me anything's going to happen. I believe it. I mean the freaking nets beat the bucks today.

They had dudes that I had never heard of six months ago, like their point card. Where did that dude come from? It's it's kind of great. It's like the real life replacement. Remember that movie with Gene Hackman and Keanu Reeves. The nets are now the replacements.

Gene Hackman classic performance in that it's it's not quite good enough to be a rewatchable. And yet Gene Hackman just re squinting to see the cue cards and just rattling off lines of Gene Hackman auto plan. I really enjoy that movie.

But maybe like season six of the rewatchables will do anyway. All right. I'm Ram. Like Steve Kerr and Nathan Hubbard coming up in one second. First, our friends from project.
