I feel like this is a real chance.

to teach NBA fans about the sport during these timeouts.

If we're not going to run commercials, if we're just punting on this.

So I think there's like 12 commercial breaks during the game.

They could make 200 two-minute videos about the history of the NBA.

And it's like, we're going to a timeout.

Here's two minutes on Paul Westphal.

He made four straight All-NBA teams, first team All-NBAs in the late 70s, and was a white guy who could dunk on dudes.

And he made the 1976 finals.

And he was fucking awesome.

Here's some highlights.

And here's three talking heads talking about him.

Now back to the game.

Cause our biggest frustration is all these people under 30.

Like they, you know, they try to wade into the historical stuff and they have no context on anybody.

Well, let's do it.

Great games, regular season games, players, teams do like a little 83 sixers thing.

Oh, we're going to commercial.

Here's Mary Ellie's kiss and death shot against Phoenix.

Here's two minutes on how that happened.
