Summary

It’s time to put aside our usual objectivity and discuss the purely subjective: Who are our favorite watches in the league, and who is making us grit our teeth?  Nate and Danny run through the candidates and each pick their top-5 best and worst watches. We catch up on news, including the imminent return of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, (1:07:15) then break down a fun Miami-Philadelphia game in a key matchup at the bottom of the East playoff picture. 1:13:58

You are looking live at two undisclosed and very dark locations from which

0:07.8

Daniel Roo and I are recording here on YouTube.

0:11.9

First live YouTube in a while.

0:13.4

And looking forward to get in all of your comments because we are going to discuss something

0:17.5

that's a little different than our normal dunk on topic where we are always rooted entirely in objective fact.

0:25.3

We would never allow any subjectivity to creep into our analysis whatsoever, except for today when we will discuss our aesthetic teams, all aesthetic and anti-esthetic teams.

0:38.2

I don't know who will, if we're going to name this, these teams after like some

0:42.2

All-Star or something like that.

0:43.8

little bell for notifications when we do go live or when a new dunked-on drops on YouTube.

1:07.6

All right, Danny, let's start with this.

1:12.5

What do you like to watch? What,

1:18.3

what pleases the eye of one Danny LaRue? I mean, there are a lot of things that do. I think that I love players who are good and willing passers. I love players who play hard. I like players

Like if somebody can be a good cutter, if somebody can fit within that sort of thing, that's something else that I like. And of course, you know, like the old traditional stuff, good ball handlers, good shooters. I'm on board with that too, of course. Yeah that too yeah i think i'm obviously have never been a coach at any kind of a serious level but i like to think that at least to some degree that my aesthetics would mirror the type of player that if i were coaching them i would really like to have them on my team. So that's one aspect of it.
