Chaos is what we expect. And that is a perfect segue into today's edition of our chaos candidates. Okay, Mark, in true NFL style, you have elected to receive here, your first chaos candidate

today.

1:06.6

Yeah, I'm going to go with a guy that we've talked about, you know, a little bit over the course of the first couple days of the shows this week, Jensen. And that being Eric Spolstra, the Miami Heat Head Coach as being a chaos candidate. And the reason why they go into the game, they're a five and a half point dog on the road in Charlotte. You look at the Hornets. There's a lot to like, you know, the young, up-and-coming Hornet team, the way that they play during the course of the regular season. But coaching matters, Jensen. We see it time and time and time again when you're looking at the NBA, when you see it in the National Football League. And Spolstra is one of those guys. I think Matt Eumann's mentioned it, you know, three for for three when you're looking at the Miami Heat getting through with the playing tournament, the belief that Spolstra getting five and a half on the road taking on them out with the Miami Heat, that they're going to, he's going to put that team in every possible position to win, the inexperience when you're looking at Charlotte.

Lakers survive, and that is a big if, if they can get through round number one. But if he comes back,

2:19.5

would you want to sprinkle on the Lakers at 150 to 1 to win it all? It almost feels like you have

2:27.3

to get it in pocket. Very similar to when Scotty Sheffler was north of 63 to 1 at one point in the Masters over the weekend.

2:36.7

It's almost criminal that those odds would be where they were.

2:40.3

But we understand why the market is where it is on Luca and the Lakers.

2:45.9

I think this is just one of those times where if somehow some way the Lakers are able to upset the rockets,

2:53.3

then you're going to want to have some stock in Luca and the boys. Now, what does he look like?

2:58.9

Mark, we've obviously talked about that. Can Austin Reeves come back? And even if they do,

3:03.9

how close to 100% will you be? And what's your cardio?
