Let's bring it the stars at the show. Get our boys going. Look at it, man. We run it four wide today. All right. Tell you what, Specter. You're a lead off hitter, bro. Go ahead, man. What you got? |
| 0:55.2 | Let's start off. We're going to go back to the NBA. I've had just a little bit of luck with the |
| 0:59.7 | NCAA, but not enough for me to really not pay attention to the NBA anymore. We're going to go, |
| 1:04.7 | my team, the Warriors Rockets, over 237 and a half. Our Sportsline AI has us at a 127, 119 game totaling to 246. |
