Hello and welcome to the Hoop Collecting podcast.

We talk about the NBA, which is doing on Sunday evening,

joining us from New York City where he attended the New York Knicks, San Antonio Spurs game today

where Spurs losing streak, or winning streak, I should say,

was brought to a crashing end at the hands of the powerful New York Knicks, Timbantems.

I don't know about powerful, but they are the Knicks, and they did win. Hello, everybody. Joining us from Dallas, Texas. He's just back from Oklahoma City, where he saw Yucca Leukukic almost tear the face off of Lou Dort, and has headed out to L.A. in a couple hours here. Stutt, Band McMahon.

Howdy, partners, also made a little pit stop pregame to go see the Thunder tonight in Dallas.

I didn't. couple hours here. It's Dan McMahon. Howdy, partners, also made a little pit stop pregame to go see the Thunder tonight in Dallas. Didn't seem to need to stick around for the actual game, but I did want to ask Mark Dagonaut what he thought of David Adelman's two days later comments on the little fracas there. Getting to that later. We certainly will. Let's start in the, right there in New York, uh uh, Bontem. Let me just say that, you know, there's been quite a bit of discussion about the fact that the spurs are four and one against the, uh, thunder this year. And, you know, we've talked and counted the plus minus, uh, point differential with the, uh, pistons being three and no against the Knicks.

What is it, 84 or 80 something, you know?

I think if you're going to stick with those types of things, then it must be recognized that the New York Knickerbockers are three and oh against the San Antonio Spurs this year.

No, they're not.

Not officially in the standings.

I think the Knicks lost because that was the start of their slide.

The Spurs came back and beat the Knicks on New Year's Eve.

My preparation for this podcast is a disaster.

Yeah, I would say so.

I even studied the box score from that game. Oh, my goodness. I mean, uh. Yeah, I would say so. I even studied the box score from that game.

From a year ago. I mean, uh, yeah, they did beat him on Christmas. Did they beat them in the NBA Cup? They beat them in the NBA Cup. They beat them in the NICs. The NICs are two and one against the Spurs this year and led a lot of the other game before they completely collapsed in the fourth quarter and lost. All right. they beat them in the NBA Cup they beat the mess out of them today

honestly the Nick game before they completely collapsed in the fourth quarter and lost. All right.

They beat them in the NBA Cup.

They beat the mess out of them today.

Honestly, the Knicks needed like a convincing win against a good team because they've had some that went the other way on them recently against some quality competition.
