Summary

It’s Whiparound Wednesday on the Shotgun Start, where Andy and Brendan had even less-than-normal prep or plan before hitting record to get this episode done. Honestly, it’s mostly just reading off a list of the many odd and terrible teams at the Zurich and reacting to them. They debate who will finish last. There’s also an amusing somewhat substantiated rumor about Shad Tuten. They discuss the videos of Patrick Cantlay being heckled that emerged from Harbour Town, as well as Jordan “just a guy” Spieth delivering a monster TV rating there. The Chevron Championship is previewed, with some thoughts about Carlton Woods. This week also marked the return of our beloved “notables” section in the shhhedule for the week.

0:00.0	Now the shotgun's starting golf is full of mathematics, there's a lot of a lot of setup work that we have to do in order to make a tournament work, so I'm gonna demonstrate to you just exactly how we do a shotgun start here.
0:13.6	And here we go.
0:17.0	All right, all right, all right, get to men, start your engine!
0:28.6	Greetings and welcome to a Wednesday edition of the Shotgun Start. It is April 19th, Andy, how are we doing?
0:43.6	Brendan, we're riding high. Nothing. We are. We can't miss these days.
0:49.6	The kings are up to zip on the warriors. What a game last night. Overcame a stop from Dremont to win the game.
1:01.6	A stop? Yeah, it's amusing. You're on the side of the kind of Dremont self-combustion team turmoil that just was such a source of joy for me about six, seven years ago in 2016.
1:15.6	So you think it's just be suspended, probably suspended for three, four games for that stop. I think the NBA has no choice.
1:22.6	No, he's not going to go. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
1:26.6	They only do that when they need to help LeBron win a title.
1:30.6	Oh, God, you're so foolish.
1:32.6	The cables are down to, oh, NBA minute. I actually stayed up late. I was like trying to go to bed and I held on because that game was that series. It's just so intriguing.
1:42.6	I don't know how you can be not a king's fan if you're totally impartial unless you're a warrior's fan. This isn't a pop of the warriors.
1:50.6	But like it shouldn't everybody be rooting for the canes in their fan base.
1:54.6	I mean, is it small market? It's such a fun team. The thing I kind of kept thinking back to.
2:00.6	And I love college basketball. I like watching college basketball. But all the people that are like, oh, they don't play any defense in the NBA.
2:10.6	Is it maybe that the like the offensive players are just so supremely talented in the NBA that it's hard to play defense?
2:17.6	Because I can't imagine anybody watching that basketball game last night.
2:22.6	The free-flowing ball movement. It's just like it's just a magical game. That was a beautiful, beautiful basketball game no matter who won.
2:32.6	It was just incredible display of basketball and sophisticated offense. I mean, both teams.
2:39.6	It is just such a pleasure to watch these two teams play. But this is the NBA minute.
2:46.6	We got we got we got what you think is a king's fan.
