How do I sound now?

I sound okay.

Let's do it.

Welcome to the Athletic NBA show.

One day through on the Athletic Podcast Network.

Okay, here we go.

All right.

And it's another edition of Hoops Adjacent on the Athletic NBA show, David Alder,

here in D.C.

Marcus Thompson in Memphis, Tennessee with his warriors.

Man, what you, what you having for lunch, man?

Blue City Cafe.

You know, I'm getting the, I'm getting the, I'm getting the half rack.

You know what I'm saying?

For the culture.

That's nice.

That's nice.

For the culture.

See, man, that's why I can't, I got to be, I got to be honest. That's why I'm kind of rooting for the Grizzlies. Because if I go to the conference finals, I want to go to Memphis, man. I haven't been to Memphis in a minute. So all due respect to the Bay. I'm just saying. You can't come back no more. I mean, are you kidding me. But you aren't even in Oakland no more, man. You're all in San Francisco now, so it's not even like you're in Oakland.

You're good.

You good.
