Before we're going to the episode, I want to just give you a brief story about what you're about to see.

As you know, Derek got married over the weekend, so he is on a flight right now on his way to a honeymoon with his wife. And this morning, we woke up to a text with Mike that said he was sick. So what you're about to watch is a two-man show with me and Pierre. We just filmed it. It is an amazing show. but I'm giving you this preference that I know that on Tuesdays, you're on YouTube audience, are expecting an hour and a half, two-hour show. But since the guys are here, we kept it very condensed. We talk about, obviously, the conference finals, some coaching hiring and so on. I think it still is an amazing episode. But I'll tell you this to say that we will make up for

the shorter episode this Tuesday in due time. Sit back, relax, enjoy the show, and we'll see y'all

again on Thursday.

Welcome back to Numbers on the board.. Numazana Board, yes. It's kind of like an optical loose, don't it? Man, this is crazy. It's like we fake it. You know, we did this before where people were just off camera and they just walked it. No, that's not happening today. As y'all know, if you follow us on Instagram, Twitter, yada, yada, yada, derry got married over the weekend. So as we speak, he is on the plane over to a secret location with his missus. His wife, man, his wife, yeah, his wife for their honeymoon. And we got a text that's from Mike this morning that said, hey, hold it down for me. He's feeling a little sick. So the show must go on. The conference finals was going on. We just had one of the greatest games. Have you thought we was going to not put together the show? So we are.

Not a three

man okay not a three man we've kind of like a give and go give and go give and go you got dropped

the mic yeah i do i do um after watching game one of the conference finals is it safe to say that

victor women yama is the greatest player to ever pick up a basketball?

Thoughts?

Hey, there was times where that crossed my mind as well.

And, you know, we like to let things play out and not jump the gun, but it's very hard not to.

20-something rebounds, number one, was incredible. 40-point game.

And what I was telling people was outside of the box score numbers,

there was a bigger presence that they can't account for statistically

because you just saw from the start of the game when it had the

7-0 run and had to call the first time out his presence of being in the paint just to tears

everything and it forced them to take a lot of three-point shots and if your name wasn't

Alex Caruso you unfortunately couldn't make shots and I I credit those is just as good as

blocks or steals when you're forcing drives from

Shay, J. Dub, A.J. Mitchell into Lou Dort, three attempts that end up being one or five.

To me, that's like a steel or a block.
