Does that honorary title come with like a sash or maybe like the key to the east side of Los Angeles?

I've heard that on many a podcast.

Oh, come on.

Come on.

That's right.

We're going to be talking about the Western Conference edition of our Say One Nice Thing series.

We did the Eastern Conference team, the bottom five in the East on Monday.

We're going to do the bottom five of the West now on here on Thursday.

Just you and I. But first, we're going to talk about something that isn't bad.

We're going to talk about something that's potentially historically great already, which is Victor Webanyama, who last night put up 41 as if it was nothing.

I think for a while now, we've kind of talked about the Wemby come up.

He's made multiple leaps, it feels like, in this season, making a real run for MVP and is very proud of the fact that he is very much in the thick of this race.

We'll talk about that probably next week or the week after we'll make our actual picks.

My thing last night that really jumped out to me is like, I almost feel like I can't miss a Wemby game at this point.

It's becoming very Steph Curry prime, like where it's like, this is appointment viewing, no matter who he's playing against.

It's crazy because if you didn't catch last night's game, and I don't blame you if you didn't tune in because it was against a very depleted Warriors team.

At the end of the game, Malavay Leon's, your boy, had to take a left-handed free throw just because they didn't have enough bodies to throw out there.

So things are going quite poorly for the Warriors and...

Uh, for that reason, like I tuned in from the beginning, saw that Wemby was cooking a little bit, but you know, I'll just take that one off, right?

Move along.
