| 0:00.0 | well what a wild chain of events that led to the thunder winning 121 to 108 in san antonio |
| 0:13.2 | you kind of figure well s j is not going to play a whole lot no al horford no darius basley no lewd dort it's going to play a whole lot. No Al Horford, no Darius Basley, no Lou Dort. It's going to be a |
| 0:25.1 | rough night. It's no way George Hill plays very much. Probably going to be seeing a ton of |
| 0:31.7 | TJ Leaf, lots of Kenrich Williams. We'll see if, will Teo Maladon even play? |
| 0:39.1 | I don't, I'm not going to ask the question if they're too good to tank because it's |

| 1:47.1 | touch on his runners and his floaters. He can shoot it. He's just really smart. He's a very cerebral |
| 1:53.8 | player. And he's going to make an instant impact for this team. And I had wondered, and I'd said it on |
