Let's take a look here and go over to the NBA. We'll talk about genetics. LeBron James is a genetic freak. He's still playing in the NBA, but some of those defensive ends here that we're getting these clips aren't looking too good. Here's Reddick talking about LeBron. You know, I think since we've gotten LeBron back, we haven't been As organized offensively, too many random possessions, so, you know, that's on me. So it's, it's those three things, you know, defensive clarity, role clarity, and um An offensive organization. How about that? Like, by the way, was that practice hard on Saturday? I didn't get it. Ayan seemed like, uh, he wasn't paying any attention to any practice at any time, Joe. Yeah, that cracks me up. Like you, you, you signed Luka Day and you bring back a 40-year-old LeBron and you're shocked nobody's playing defense. Like it's just amazing to me. But they did drop what, 68 last night combined, uh, to beat one of the worst teams in the NBA in the Sacramento Kings, so I guess, you know, all is right now in LA I think is what they're saying. Hear me out, Joe. During the 60s, 70s, 80s, and into the 90s, a big part of going to a hockey game was lining up and saying, you know what? Love the Flyers. They're taking on the Rangers tonight. I wonder if Dave Brown is gonna drop the gloves tonight because if he doesn't, I'm gonna be upset. People love fighting in sports here. And in the NHL back in the day. It was routine. The players policed themselves. I take a cheap shot at my favorite player, your goon over there is gonna fight my goon and he's gonna have to pay the price because you did that. Can you imagine in the NBA if fighting was allowed, Joe, could we take this to the next level? Like, I'm even talking about like Steph Curry's going toe to toe with another point guard like Jose Alvarado. Can you imagine like ding. and the players separate and the two guys square up on the court. Unbelievable theater. You want ratings? That's ratings, Joe. In the NBA right now, we might be getting ratings because we're throwing punches now. Well, I, I, which is good, uh, I mean, do something, uh, because the idea that everyone loves everyone in Kumbaya, we're all friends and let's go out to the club afterwards is absurd, uh, because, you know, anybody that grew up, uh, watching Bill Lambier and Company or, you know, Kobe, they would have rather just ripped your head off than ever, ever. We, we saw this kind of thing on a nightly basis, uh, which I'll take any day. I'll take more of that any day in the NBA. Scotty Barnes' historic triple-double, 23, 25, and 10. And by the way, 25 is unbelievable to get. Is that a product of the man is really good and gets a lot of rebounds, or, God, man, can somebody make a shot around here? Too many bricks. Yeah, well, I mean, they had to go to overtime, uh, you know, which, which was kind of crazy against the Golden State. How the Golden State Warriors blew that game is beyond me. uh, but yeah, he kind of went off in overtime as well, and that was it. It was a one-man wrecking crew, and he basically single-handedly handled the Golden State Warriors yesterday. By the way, put up this graphic next for this stat news tweet because this is where I start to get a kick out of things and say, you know what? Sometimes you gotta stay in your lane. 500+ points, 250+ rebounds, 150+ assists, and 25+ blocks. I know who the guy on the left is, but if we didn't like predispose of who that's supposed to be with Scotty Barnes, I would have no idea who that guy on the right was at all. And I'm gonna tell you right now, 95% of NBA fans probably wouldn't either. Yeah, who is that on the right there? Don't tell me that's a bad joker. Is it? Like, what is that? That's a bad joker. Yeah, exactly. That's a bad joker. Wow, that's awful. That is terrible. That's pretty good stuff. Scotty Barnes, Scotty Barnes right up against him at that point right here as it goes. Nuggets and the Heat. Tonight, Joe, I'm gonna abstain from this because why? It's coming up in bye, bye, bye in our next segment here. But a 2.5 point spread for those Miami Heat here, 245.5 total. And look at that. The smart moves NBA projection. Miami by 3. They're saying the wrong team is favored is what we're telling you. It, it's crazy too because you have, and actually Tyler Hero might be back for Miami Shocker in this one here, but yeah, Joker and company coming off a, uh, a rare loss, uh, against Orlando, a game in which they had, uh, a double-digit lead for most of it and, and blew it in the 4th quarter. We'll see if they, uh, rebound here tonight in Miami, who's gonna want to run. I, I wouldn't be sweating out an under in this one tonight either, Donnie. By the way, is Tyler Hero still a hero around like the, uh, the club scene in South Florida? Is he still like hanging out and throwing on the sunglasses, hanging out with the boys? It could be. Maybe he's back. Maybe he's tired of doing that part and gonna put some work in on the court. Cavs Spurs tonight. I don't know what's going on with the Cavaliers, but look at this. The Spurs were favored by 5. Now it's down to 3. What gives here? Is Wendy not playing? What happened? Well, De'Aaron Fox missed the last game, so we'll have to see, uh, what the avail, who cares? I mean, the Cavs can't stop a nosebleed defensively right now, and, uh, yeah, they, they very disjointed, this Cleveland Cavs team right now, not good. For Joe, for me, I'm gonna go to the NBA and maybe a little bit of the case of the. The South Beach flew for those Denver Nuggets. We had an opening line to go -4 points. It's now down to -2.5. The Miami Heat only getting 20% of the early ticket count on a Monday morning. That means we're taking the Miami Heat plus 2.5 for a -115 price. Let's go, Heat.
