Joel Lorenzi

I usually like to guess the number, but there was this very strategic advantage there.

Hey, go read Joel at The Athletic.

He's writing about the Bulls.

He's also writing about the Thunder as well.

So if you want to hear about either one of those teams, Joel is your guy.

Joel, thanks for coming on the show.

I'll do all MJ questions.

MJ only next time.

That is a treat to talk to LaMari in any setting.

It's always a treat.

Yes.

That's nice.

boo man all right coming off rivals week where they play the lakers and embarrass the lakers man the next week they play denver phoenix philly cleveland oh wow you get to learn a lot about the clippers then maybe maybe we should just do two weeks of clippers yeah yeah you don't think we're gonna learn a lot from the utah game

I think that we will learn that both Brooklyn and Utah would love to have good lottery picks.

I think that's what we'll learn from those games.

Something else you can learn is if you leave us a five-star review, we'll read it on the podcast, just like this one.

BenG821, a slam and jam, is always my favorite podcast of the week.

Alex's week in review is the best bit on any pod and frequently has me laughing out loud in my car.

Also...

If avoiding the curse of the wheel is what got us a championship in OKC, then please remove the thunder from the wheel entirely.
