But dude, yeah, this Charlotte game, it could be a real sort of

ribbon on the top.

What am I trying to say?

A cherry on top of the bad Sunday for this season for the Magic.

By the way, do you think Lomelo should have been suspended?

Dude, kind of.

I was too.

When I saw Spoh go to the postgame, because he doesn't do that shit, and he said all that, I was like, okay.

I've never seen him that fired up.

And Bam deserves better

we don't want to set a precedent that it's okay to do that to a star player in this league um so yeah i'm kind of surprised we didn't see more from the league on that one all right yeah it's gonna be a fun game to watch and like i like before the season

net rating and other stats tell us about the predictive value of who could win the title do you want to do you want to talk about that piece at all real quick yeah it's sort of an extension of stuff that i stole from you 10 years ago which is like hey what are the regular season key metrics so the dean oliver the the net rating offensive rating defensive rating spoiler net rating is very predictive that's good news for the celtics and the pistons and the thunder

and the Spurs and shooting is the other one that I would say, if you can't shoot, you're not going to win this tournament.

That's bad news for the Pistons.

So I think that if you look at history as a guy, there are three clear favorites, the Thunder, the,

The Spurs and the Celtics right now.

And I think that smells right.

And for me, it just feels like this is the Thunder's year to win again.

I'm not predicting they will easily, but the stats from the regular season seem to suggest that they're most likely to win it all.

The world needs to see that.
