| 0:00.0 | Welcome to a very special, I mean, not that special Monday edition. |
| 0:04.6 | One of our favorite though, time to panic, which teams, which fan bases should be panicking |
| 0:10.0 | that their teams are not going to live up to expectations. That's coming up later in the show |
| 0:13.3 | first though. Some news has piled up that we need to get to here. Let's start with probably, |
| 0:18.4 | I would say the most significant is that Zach Collins is going to have to have shoulder surgery |
| 0:23.3 | or Marie dislocated his shoulder. He was in the Dallas game about a week ago. There was some hope |
| 0:29.0 | maybe his shoulder wasn't that bad and he had decent range of motion and he popped right back |
| 0:35.1 | in. But no, now it looks like there's going to be surgery timetables to be released soon. But |
| 0:40.6 | you have to imagine that's no less than a couple of months. And for a team that already was |
| 0:46.2 | extremely thin in the front court, Danny, this is going to be a major issue for their depth. |
| 0:51.8 | Absolutely. And they just don't have that many options to go with that. I mean, the resources. |
| 0:57.7 | And a lot of the players they've drafted on the on the perimeter have worked out reasonably well. |
| 1:02.2 | You know, Simon's is in the rotation now and some of the other guys, but they just don't have |
| 1:06.0 | they haven't used resources there. So Mario Hizodia is going to play a lot more. |
| 1:09.4 | At the D-Tall, we're just going to play a lot more. And they'll probably go really small at the |
| 1:13.4 | three and the four. I mean, we've already seen Rodney Hood playing power forward a little bit. |
| 1:16.9 | And that's I mean, I'm not comfortable with Hood at the three, much less at the four. At least |
| 1:20.8 | against good teams. You know, like you can exploit it a little bit. And so Neil O'Shea's |
| 1:25.2 | reluctance to sign and pay forwards is a is a kind of coming to roost a little bit. And also now |
| 1:31.9 | any injuries to Hassan Whiteside become a bigger deal. And he missed the Philly game with a |
| 1:36.8 | a bone bruise at his D, but he's but but he'll be back soon. So that's not as huge a deal. But |
| 1:41.9 | remember, like they're just really shallow in the entire front court now, not just at the forward |
