Good morning and welcome to the NBA Daily for January 15th, 2025. Coming up, we got Cavs Pacers Part 2. The Cavs struck back, luckily, starting another win streak, I'm guessing. We got some weird vibes with the Warriors, and I need Zena's opinion on this whole thing. And then we got Eric Name to stop in and talk to us about the Bucs after stopping the Kings win streak. Good morning, everybody. Good morning, Zena. Zena, you know what? I was watching a lot of basketball this weekend, and usually I will use social media to help steer the direction of the show for the week. What are the film guys watching? What were the best clips from the weekend? And I will be honest, I felt like This past weekend was just dominated by college football.
And I learned via osmosis because I didn't watch a single second. But I learned that Ohio State and Notre Dame are in the national championship game. They are.
And that that means you missed Jack Sawyer. Big old boy from OSU scoop and score. I mean, it was an exciting game. Texas versus OSU actually locked in on that one. A lot of fun, but OSU has had quite the journey to this championship game. So it'll be fun to watch them take on Notre Dame.
Well, Also a lot of fun. I don't know if you guys, if you're listening to us, you may not know, but over at the athletic podcast network, we have until Saturday, that's our college football show. We've got David Ubin. We've got Chris Vanini. We got Damian Harris, all in Atlanta, bringing you predictions behind the scenes. They've got some interviews. I think Paul Feinbaum also from ESPN is going to be making an appearance on the show. So they're going to be in Atlanta all week. They're going to have their Instant Reaction podcast, and it's going to be on YouTube immediately following Monday's championship game. So go and subscribe to Until Saturday, wherever you listen to podcasts, and go and subscribe to the YouTube.
On the copy they gave me, I'm going to just full disclosure, it says... Subscribe to the podcast or the YouTube. No, do both. Just like with us, guys. Go and subscribe to the YouTube if you're only listening to the pod. And if you're only watching on YouTube, subscribe to the pod. Let's get to some hoops because, hey, look, it's another night in the NBA, which means we had games that were important. Cavs and Pacers. uh they're back to back basically home and home split and the Cavs got back on this one they look more like the Cavs that we're used to seeing a little bit of a revenge game right like look like Donovan Mitchell especially looked like he was coming out looking to score it's interesting Donovan Mitchell
told Stephanie Reddy, sideline reporter with TNT after the game, that it was more about just playing their game and getting back to who they are as opposed to a revenge game. But let's be real. Donovan Mitchell came out 19 points in that first quarter, 27 for the half, a career high, not a season high, a career high, most points scored in a first half. It was clear that he wanted to get his get back against the Pacers. And he did. They were in this game because of the work he was putting in.
Yeah, him and Garland, they combined for 59 points, had 10 assists. And again, Mobley and Allen have another nice game. I mean, the Cavs, I think we've just been talking about them so much at this point. We didn't expect them necessarily to lose a game, but of course they were going to. But the bounce back, right? Two in a row. There was no way I would have been shocked if they had lost this one. A funny thing happened with Benedict Matherin in this game. He actually was assessed three technical fouls. One was a non unsportsmanlike for doing a pull up on a dunk. And then, you know, he got into it with the ref and he got two quick texts rightfully. And I don't even know, Zena, he was arguing a call that just doesn't make any sense to me. And it makes me think that these guys look.
