WATCH NBA PANIC

“And then this Scoot Henderson game, 31 points. So Nick Wright texted me this. He now has 10 more career playoff points than Wembley. I feel like I'm still in it with Scoot. Can't give up yet. I thought Scoot was awesome today. Now he had one rebound and zero assists, but the defense and the fearlessness and the athleticism was what we thought it might be.”

“I have the rockets now. Number one, because if you lose this series to if you lose this series to this Lakers team, you gotta be kidding me. Honestly, you gotta be kidding me. That would be just one of the dumbest playoff losses I could remember. Your 41 year old LeBron, Luke Kennard, who anybody coulda had, Marcus Smart hitting corner threes, Jackson Hayes is out there. I I just can't believe it.”

“The spurs when he gets concussed on the night that he is given the defensive player of the year award and it looked bad immediately was not great. And I don't know in, in football, the concussion protocol is like at least a week. I who knows with basketball, he's definitely not gonna be in game three, but maybe he comes back for game four. But at the very least, Portland steals one.”

“I don't know why Houston didn't trade for him. I don't get it. They thought they're they were good with the team. Like, they like having Van Vliet around. Van Vliet can't play till next year. Like, worst case scenario, you could just opt out of his contract. You can resign him. But it's weird to me that they didn't do anything, and the email clearly doesn't trust Reed Shepherd.”

“Portland, frisky seven seed. Like, I I think Portland's a better playoff team than either Houston or Toronto. So you're going to Portland. The energy's gonna be amazing. El Cheapo is gonna be shooting out, probably used t shirts out of 15 year old Canon, t shirt candidates. I can't wait for for this weekend, but we'll see what do the spurs have in them without Wembley.”
