What is the significance of the McFlurry Machine Metaphor?

Cuervo 0:01
Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think you could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.
Cuervo 0:29
Cuervo. Cuervo.

How did the team adjust their lineup for Game 3?

Domonique Foxworth 0:45
All right. We're back for game three. There we go. A little change to the starting lineup. Our man Hawk is gone for the day. He might be back later in the week. Benched. He wasn't benched. He was benched. It's a little – it's a DMP. Well, the voice that you hear is the replacement for Hawk.
Amin Elhassan 1:04
They called in the left-hander.
Domonique Foxworth 1:05
They called in the lefty. Not even lefty. That's the crazy part. It is Mr. El Hassan, the dream himself. You've been walking around with a lot of confidence around here. You know that nickname? No, I mean, it's always a nickname. It rhymes. That's the right nickname to go.
Amin Elhassan 1:23
That was my nickname when I worked for the Suns, man. Right, yeah.
Domonique Foxworth 1:26
I mean, the dream, right? Yeah, I mean, that's it.
Amin Elhassan 1:29
Or dreamer. There we go.
Domonique Foxworth 1:30
So we got dreamer in here. No Mike Ryan today. Billy's back. Chris Cody, who's been the rock. Big Red the Rock is here. The return of Smitty Wap. We also got my man Charlie, who at some point, so a couple of things we're going to get into today. Charlie and I went on a gallivant last night. with some friends. One of our friends was kidnapped. I heard a story about a lunatic strength coach that happened last night. What else happened last night, Charlie? That was crazy. We don't have to get into the story specifically, but we can tease them for later. I feel like you think less of me now. No, no. I just got to know you more. Multitudes. Everybody has these stories.
Amin Elhassan 2:12
Did Charlie have a Sam Rockwell and White Lotus type of night? No.
Billy 2:17
I heard that yesterday's show was a lot of sports talk. And I heard that the series is even right now. But yesterday's show was a run the ball day, sort of like ground and pound. Like, let's tie it up the ugly way. And today is going to be like, we're feeling good. We're going to kind of play our style ball now. Is that what I heard?
Domonique Foxworth 2:37
I mean, we got to see what the defense gives us.
Billy 2:39
We're not desperate enough for a flea flicker. Save that for maybe Thursday or Friday.

What are the key takeaways from last night's NBA games?

Amin Elhassan 2:43
You start the game off. Let them know.
Domonique Foxworth 2:45
We got John Fantas coming on later in the show to talk to us about the tournament. So that's a run-the-ball situation. We got David Sampson, which is always fun. I love David Sampson. He makes me seem so smart. He's the best. But I think at some point we're going to get to Steph Curry hitting a ridiculous amount of threes, but I think we got to start with what Jokic did last night in double overtime, a 61-point triple-double. He's insane. All the shots in the paint look like they're mistakes, but they always somehow... Go in. He's incredible. The passing. And I was watching the highlights of that game this morning because it was on way too late for me. But Charlie was still up. He couldn't sleep because he's a Jokic head.
Charlie 3:23
Yeah, I mean, got home and it was double overtime against the Timberwolves. Jokic was unconscious. I don't know. Amin, I wonder what you think about this, too. Is the lead for you Jokic or Russell Westbrook, who we've talked about all year? He's tempered his Russ. He's deferred to Jokic in seemingly every big moment to the point where he's almost overpassing. And then with 17 seconds left, the Wolves turn it over. Russell Westbrook smokes the layup rather than dribbling the ball out to get fouled. Up by one. But he doesn't give up. Russ always has motor. And he fouls to kill Alexander Walker with .1 seconds left after complaining for a call.
Amin Elhassan 4:02
I don't know if you guys saw the reverse angle. After he smokes the layup, he just stands there and sits in it for a little bit. As action is going, they're playing, and he's just like, yeah, I might have just blown that game. And then he gets the idea, like, I gotta make up for this. And he runs. And the craziest part is watching the TNT broadcast when the foul happens.
