Financial advice. Tax season, Boost Mobile wants you to turn your tax refund into six months of
saving. When you buy six months on their best unlimited plans, Boost will give you another
six months for free. That's like six times two divided by one carry the other. A really good
deal. They told me I should have been a tax accountant.
Well, would you trust me with your money?
Well, that's great news because I'm not done yet.
Visit Boost Mobile Store during tax season and enter to win up to $10,000 to double your refund.

And now I get back to my boring old day job.
Head over to your nearest Boost Mobile store
and make the most out of your tax refund.
The seven seed Warriors
are favored over the Rockets
to win the series per DraftKings.
The Warriors are minus 190.
The Rockets are plus 155.
Are the Warriors a lot to beat the Rockets, Joe?
I'm not sure if they're a lot.
Now, we're going off experience.
Then, obviously, you know, they got Houston on that.
Houston got youth on their side.
And they got to use the advantage, man.
They got to make them guys work.
But, you know, when you got guys
like Jimmy Bullen, Draymond Green,
and obviously, you know, Steph Curry,
it's going to be tough to beat them,
man. They got them role players around
them playing great basketball.
So, that's going to be
an interesting series. It's a lot of series I'm looking
forward to, and their Rockets
and Golden State is going to be one for the
ages.
But the thing that concerns
me about the Rockets, who's your go-to guy?
Right.
They haven't been in this. The Warriors
have been in these situations.
Steph knows what it's like to play championship
basketball, to get ready to win a title.
Draymond has been there. He knows
what it's like. Jimmy Butler hadn't won,
but he's taking team to the NBA Finals. He knows what it's like. Jimmy Butler hadn't won, but he's taking team to the NBA finals.
He knows what it's like.
And they're role players.
Now, I don't know what's going on with Kamingo didn't really play.
Moody got the assignment.
So it's going to be very, very interesting because you play with a team
that understands what these moments are about and what they're like
versus a team that's extremely athletic.
It's going to'm Smith, and
you got Dylan Brooks, and you got
Jalen Green. You got Van Fleet.
You got Al Sangoon.
He's for real.
Graybond's going to have his hands full with him now.
Yeah.
Them Rockets, they playing hard,
man. You know,
he going to have them ready now. They ain't going to be
scared of nothing.
No.
No.
I think the fact that they are young, Joe,
is why you can't have them as a lot.
They play on both ends of the court.
And I think the pressure for them,
especially when you're that young,
you're just out there playing basketball.
Yeah.
You're just out there playing basketball.
You're just out there having fun
and doing what you need to do.
And I think they have the Warriors to win, obviously,
not only because of Steph, but because of the experience.
They've already been there before.
But it's going to be a good series, a very, very good series.
I think it's going to 7-2 now.
But, Joe, they got to hold serve at home.
Yeah.
Talking about the Rockets.
The Rockets got a whole server
yeah
they do
they do
because that's gonna be
the confidence booster
if you can win
the first two games
at home
yes
and then have to travel
to you know
go to state
to uh
you know
to try to get a win
but
man
I just like the young
Rockets team
they play hard
they're fearless
and you know
they know what it's like
to play the Warriors
and because they've played them pretty well this year yep yeah hey Rockets team. They play hard. They're fearless. And, you know, they know what it's like to play the Warriors. And because
they've played them pretty well this year.
Yep.
Hey, Joe, if they
come out of the gate in general and
win the first two games at home,
well, it can get spooky.
It can get spooky.
The one thing about the Warriors,
the Warriors won't panic, though, because
they've been here. I remember a couple years ago they went down to Sacramento
and they had to go to Sacramento and win game seven,
and Steph Curry had one of the great all-time performances.
He dropped 50 on them in game seven.
Yeah.
So the Warriors would not look.
You lose the first two games on the road.
All they did was hold serve at home.
The series doesn't start until the road team wins a game.
So all
Houston would have done is protect their home.
They did not let the Warriors come in
and invade their territory. So we
kept them at bay. Now
can we make an advancement
into their territory by stealing
a game at home? Now
Rockets are saying all we got to
do is just hold serve at home. If we wentets are saying, all we got to do is just hold serve at home.
If we win all four at home,
we advance.
The Warriors are saying,
we got to find a way
to get one.
All we got to do
is get one at home.
Get one on the road.
And we lack our chances.
And I think that first game
for the Warriors
will be probably
one of the best games
for them to get because
their young team in Houston,
having to understand you're the
two seed, you're the one being hunted.
You got to understand and know how to protect
that. You can't wait
to see what the intensity is going to be like
before you have to rev it up. Go to state,
they're going to already know.
The Rockets, they cannot
lose on their home floor they got to
protect they got to protect the house and I think it's going to be a hell of a series yeah going to
state said we already played a playoff game we beat Memphis that was it even though it doesn't
go towards anything but that was a playoff type atmosphere because hey the one thing we didn't
want to do was fall and now we're out so hey let's just go ahead and make a life of ourselves.
And plus, I think they like their chances better against the Rockets
than they do the Thunder.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Hey, listen, listen.
I think they definitely will take the Rockets because, you know,
they know and understand the moment,
and they know that the Rockets will be a little inexperienced,
even though they're going to play hard, and they're definitely going to make it competitive.
But, you know, the Rockets definitely got, I mean, the Warriors definitely got the team
who I think they were seeking out to get in the playoffs.
Yeah.
Joe, let me know what you think about this.
Brandon Jennings, Jeff Teague, Lou Will, and Pat Bell have all gone at it over
who can win a one-on-one.
Joe, what's your take on this, bro?
You know, Pat Bell went to the University of Arkansas.
He a Razorback.
That's my guy.
Jeff Teague.
Hey, Jeff Teague, my guy.
I know Brandon Jennings.
But if you're playing against Pat Bell, y'all not going to finish the game, bro.
If you think you're going to outscore that man,
hey, man, you're going to have another thing coming.
That's why he calling for all the smoke.
He calling everybody out.
It's going to be tough.
But if I had to take somebody, I'd probably take Teague.
I think Teague, he's probably a little younger than all of them,
and he's still got a little offense.
You know what I mean?
He's playing probably pretty regularly.
I know Pat just came from overseas.
But Pat is a disruptor.
You know, he's going to jump the game up.
You better hope you don't hurt yourself while you're playing him.
Like, this ain't going to be no walk in the park.
Pat said they ain't got no conditioning.
Pat said, y'all don't work out like that.
He said, I'm still in the gym. I'm still getting up shots.
I'm still running.
So he going to be playing that pressed up
dog defense on him.
And it's going to wait him down after a while. It's going to take them legs.
That's what he's banking on.
He's going to tell you he's going to talk you out to
the game. Oh, yeah.
Hey, you want to throw your
name in the hat joe you want some
of that one-on-one action oh whoever wants to smoke i got it over in form you hear me yeah i
wait hey call me out you want to i heard i heard brandon jennings say something but i can't even
i don't get no strife for playing brandon jennings i don't get no strife for beating him
shit i'm 68240 cut up you hear me man one night
joe you going back to the big three this year yeah i'm going back to the big three man uh 2.40. Cut up. Yeah, man. Man, I want that.
Joe, you going back to the big three this year?
Yeah, I'm going back to the big three, man.
I just got off a call with them guys yesterday teaming up with the Detroit Amps coached by George Iceman-Girvin.
Okay.
Oh, that's live.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I'm looking forward to it.
Bro, I've been playing in this.
I've been playing this 2019
since I've been done with the NBA.
And it still gives me a chance
to, you know, stay in shape,
get to compete at a high level,
get to play on a huge platform
like the Big 3, I think, Ice Cube,
and there's running mates, Jeff and them.
They've done a great job with the Big 3, man man it's been fun to be a part of actually so yeah you know as
we get up in age man we still got you know we still got a little something left in us man we
still love competing that that's that's the one thing that never dies nah the competition it never
goes anywhere and it's hard it's hard to fulfill it doing something it's hard to fulfill it.
It's hard to fulfill it, but for three-on-three half court,
I can do at least about 50.
I can do that.
Hey, Joe, for big three, right?
What's up?
Everybody is former NBA players, obviously, as starters.
Yeah.
Now, anybody on the bench coming off the bench, are they just casual people that can play the game of basketball?
No.
He let a few guys in a few seasons ago.
But mainly the NBA guys and guys who played overseas, played professional overseas.
Okay.
But you know what?
Well, being in this different space, man, you know, a lot of these YouTubers, it's a lot of them who got game, bro.
And he's actually, you know, let a few of them play.
So it's been fun.
It's been fun to see them.
It's been fun to see them get a chance to, you know, go out there and compete and have fun and, you know, help grow the game.
I like that.
What you think?
Should I get out there or not?
No.

No, I couldn't.

So I chose football.
And actually, football wasn't even my thing.
I wanted to play soccer.
I just didn't have the resources, Joe.
I didn't have the resources to play soccer where I come from.

The podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next.
In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything
but ordinary.
We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream
gold,
connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen.
What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core.
It's this idea that there are so many stories out there,
and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content,
the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports
collide and hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit
in the most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. was never afraid to express himself loudly and boldly and stays true to form in Ali and Me,
an eight-part Audible original.
Guided by his own words,
this series explores Ali's life and legacy
through never-before-heard audio recordings
and discussions with those who knew him best.
Muhammad had this real sense
of his own personal values and principles,
things he believed in, his own sense of conviction,
those convictions never wavered.
Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lani Ali,
and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster, John Ramsey,
Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing ring
to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary life
through conversations with Billy Crystal, Mike Tyson,
Rosie Perez, Common,
Will Smith, and Bob Costas.
It created a North Star for me
of how I want to be in the world, you know.
As a child, as a young person,
he gave credence to my audacity.
There's no debate that this is
the greatest global sports figure
of our lifetime.
Listen to Ali and Me, now on Audible.
In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal
that looked like it might bring down his presidency.
Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir?
No.
It became known as the Iran-Contra affair.
And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second.
I'm going to ask...
I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn.
In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra,
you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal
that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago, but which few of us still remember today.
The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you.
Please do.
To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Ocho.

Do you see point to point?
Look at your clavicle looking by.
Look at your shoulder.
You look at the caps on your shoulder.
Look at the caps on mine.
You do understand my shoulders look like this because I'm aerodynamic.
No, you can be aerodynamic all you want to.
George Froh with his man, man.
Listen, we have two different frames, two totally different frames.
Yes, yes.
Yeah, but I'm just saying.
But what I can do with the frame I do have,
I can put on as much weight and as much muscle as possible.
Ocho, you only going to be so big.
A cheetah, I don't care how much meat a cheetah eat,
he's never going to weigh as much as a lion or tiger.
That's not his makeup.
Right.
That's not your makeup.
Okay, but I'm going to get big.
I'm going to get big as possible. Just like I couldn't be your weight. If I'm your weight, I'm going to get big. I'm going to get big as possible. I couldn't be your weight.
If I'm your weight, I'm three
months past dead.
Yeah, he's going to look sick.
The first thing he's going to say, oh,
he on that zippy, or he got that thigh job.
They ain't going to be able to do it.
Hey, Ocho,

Oh, there you go.
Joe, you faced LeBron in the playoffs many times.
Is there a difference between regular season LeBron and playoff LeBron?
Yeah.
Yeah, it is.
There's definitely a difference.
He definitely revs it up a notch, and you can always count in a series,
he's going to explode.
He's going to have one of them games.
You know, I remember playing in Brooklyn, and we played them.
You dropped that 49 on y'all.
They won the first two games in Miami.
We won game three in Brooklyn.
In game four, he really had 50.
He missed the free throw.
He missed the free throw and hit 50.
Was that the game that Paul Pierce said he wanted it?
I don't remember.
I know.
Now, don't get me wrong.
Paul take the challenge.
Now, he's a competitor.
He was an ultimate competitor.
And I'm sure he probably started off on me.
He probably did.
But it was, hey, listen.
It was just like we played great defense and he'd make a tough shot.
It was like, damn.
Like, you just realized how special he was, man.
Like, he had that one game that just kind of took us out of whack.
So, you look at them now.
They got three guys that can handle the ball, can facilitate for everybody else,
but they can also go get their shot.
We know Luka.
Luka has the second-highest scoring playoff.
He averages 32 points a game.
He increases.
And that's what the great...
If you look at all the great players,
look at their regular season
and look at their postseason averages.
It increases.
Look at Jordan.
Look at Kobe.
Look at LeBron.
Look at KD.
Look at Steph.
That's where you make your money.
Yeah.
So LeBron understands he has a great situation.
And like,
there's never been a series on his
own team that LeBron was the second best player.
Right.
Think about that.
The guy that has 42,000 points,
more playoff points than anybody
in the history of the game.
And on most nights, he's going to be the second best player.
So who do you send to him?
It don't matter who you send to him.
He's going to find a way to manipulate the game to where he's very effective,
whether it be 13, 14 assists, 17, 18 rebounds,
anywhere from 20 to 25 points.
He's going to dominate the game in every facet.
So, everybody got Luka as the best player on the Lakers right now?
He is, Joe.
Yeah.
He's the best.
I'm going to tell you something.
I think Bron is going to really take the initiative. His game to another level? Yeah, man. I think he's still going to tell you something. I think Bron is going to really take, like, I think he's going to take the initiative.
His game to another level?
Yeah, man.
I think he's still going to be great.
I think Luke is going to be, he's definitely, you know,
going to be great as well.
But Bron is going to cause a lot of havoc, man.
I think people are kind of just overlooking him because him
and Luke are teammates.
Right.
But I see him putting up some great performances this postseason.
Right. But
you know what I'm thinking? I think
with Luka done, I'm not
going to be shocked now that
LeBron plays 25 seasons.
Because guess what? He got
somebody to handle the ball. He got somebody that can
handle the scoring. If he's off, he
and AR is going to be...
I can see LeBron maybe one more year
had Luka not come,
but I can see LeBron
playing two or three
more years, Joe.
Oh, definitely, definitely.
Because he don't have,
you know,
a huge load on him
offensively to where
he has to score 30 a night.
See, now he can sit back
and average 22,
24 points a night
and, you know,
still be super effective,
you know,
helping A.R. and helping Luka just being that decoy just by being out there on the floor. 24 points a night and, you know, still be super effective, you know, helping AR
and helping Luka
just being that decoy
just by being out there
on the floor.
Yeah.
And the funny thing about it,
if Luka does have off nights
where it won't happen often,
LeBron can actually
pick up the slack.
And they still need to be.
I'm going to keep saying that.
That's a wrap.
They're going to have to be strapped. The Ocho,'s a wrap. They're going to have to be strapped.
The old show.
This postseason, they're going to have to be strapped.
They got what they got.
And they're going to have to play like-sized guys
where they're switching a lot and just causing havoc.
That's how they're going to have to roll.
That's it.
But they got guys that can make tough shots.
AR has played unbelievable, averaging 25-4, played great.
We know what Luka, we know what LeBron are.
The question is, what can we count on consistently?
Can we count on Dory or Finney Smith to give us somewhere 12-14?
Gabe Vinson, can he hit two or three big-time threes?
Vando, can he play great defense and give us six to eight points?
Jackson Hayes, bro, hey, we need you to keep watch the glass.
Because we're not going to run plays
for you. You're going to need to
be a lob threat, and we need you
to get it out the rim.
Yeah.
I think those guys definitely
understand their roles, and
they understand the timing of everything
at this point and the opportunity
that's ahead of them.
At worst case,
they won't have to see OKC
into the Western Conference finals.
So I think they're in pretty good shape.
They control their own destiny.
They can come out and, you know,
put up what they're supposed to.
Yeah, do what they're supposed to.
They'll be all right,
especially take care of home.
Baylor has to replace
their entire basketball team.
Every single person that was on the roster from last season left the school.
Nine of the 14 are in the portal.
Joe, how we fix this?
We see the kid from Tennessee.
I'm a lever.
You should have known by the name.
I'm a lever.
He did.
But, Joe, I mean, you see, he's going to get 2.4.
Now he wanted four.
I don't believe he's going to get that.
It seems like UCLA, nobody's going to give him that.
Because they're like, where are you going to go?
So now, Ocho, remember I told you.
I sure hope he got a $4 million offer lined up.
Because if he, whoever advised him his dad his agent his
cousin whoever they did him a disservice yeah they did and obviously for for a minute i thought
normally especially somebody like that if you're as good as you think you are but you snatched up
the next day it's not a problem i got it got to a point where i thought the college were in cahoots
i thought they were in cahoots trying to prove a point
and not give him a deal or not sign him.
You know, because most of the time,
all the money is already taken care of.
All the money is accounted for.
Yeah.
At this point.
But obviously, him going down to the UCLA,
I'm sure they gave him something.
I know it's nowhere close to four.
No.
You ain't got nowhere else to go. Why would I
give you that?
He should have stayed at Tennessee, huh?
Exactly. We're living in
different times, man. We're living in different times.
I don't even know how do you fix
the NIL
because what it seems
is there's just no loyalty in it.
Guys are just going wherever the bag at.
If you tell me you got a bag on them, no.
Joe, this is what the coaches do.
Coaches do it all the time.
They do it all the time.
If they get a bet off somewhere, they out.
I know, man, but these are kids, and it's hard to, you know,
at 18, 19 years old, man, making these type of decisions, bro.
Like, you know, this is tough because once you get there
if you go in there for the money and they don't turn out how you plan then you know you can only
blame yourself uh right but i couldn't i couldn't imagine man could y'all imagine you know the the
money being like it is in college when y'all was coming out when y'all was coming out of high
school oh can you imagine going to college and they type enticing you with this type of money.
What would it be like?
Man, I don't know.
I ain't going to lie to you.
I'm going to take less money to go to a place that's going to affect.
Why would I go to a team to run the wishbone if I'm a receiver?
I'm going to go somewhere they're going to showcase me.
Because at the end of the day, yes, I want to get money.
But don't you know, I want to go to the NFL.
Hell, college was not my ultimate
destination. The NFL
is. So if I go to a place that
don't highlight or showcase what I can
do...
I don't even think
some of these kids are thinking about the NFL
right now at this point because you know in
football, you got to go to school at least for three years
anyway, right? Yes.
They're not even thinking about the NFL. They're just thinking
about how can I make the most money
right now as a freshman,
sophomore, or junior, whatever the case may be.
It works out for some, but it's going to hurt
a lot of them guys, man.
A lot of times, though, Joe, when we grew up,
it didn't take a whole lot of money. It didn't take no means
for us. Hell, you could have gave us
$10,000.
Somebody made $10,000 a year. Can, you could have gave us $10,000. That'd be... That's a lot.
Do you imagine somebody just hand me $10,000
and say, we're going to give you $1,000 or $2,000
a month.
Stop playing.
I guarantee you we'd get out of the house with running
water.
I got
that pail grain every month for $2,900.
Boy, I thought I was balling. Hey, O'To, I got that Pell Grant every month for $2,900. Boy, I thought I was balling.
Hey, balling.
Yeah, I should get a Pell Grant.
I get a Pell Grant every month for $2,900.
I should send my mom about $1,400.
Keep the rest.
I'll be balling for a couple weeks.
Next thing you know, you look up, you see me in the cafe again.
I'll be back again.
I'll be back again.
You know, you could tell when everybody got their work
We got work study
We didn't get pale gray
We got work study check
Man, everybody
They going to get in the wing
They eating at Red Lobster
They going to Ryan's to get that buffet
Yeah
Gym two weeks
Everybody got them trays up in that line
Hey, that was me.
I ain't going to lie.
Boy, look, I was eating out, buying shoes, clothes.
It get low, you'll see me in the cab.
Don't worry about it.
What's up, guys?
Hey, yeah.
Hey, you know, my junior year, my brother go to the league.
So, you know, hey.
Oh, man.
Hey, y'all better have something good, Cap, if y'all want to see me.
If y'all ain't got some bull jive up in there, ah, nah, I'm going to McDonald's.
I'm going, hey, I eat out.
Because back then, Burger King, we had a Burger King like it was walking distance on campus.
Right.
Yeah.

Remember those waffles?
99 cent.
Yeah.
I used to go to Wendy's, get them 99 cent cheeseburger, double cheeseburger.
Yeah.
Yeah. I know somebody that finally go over there, give me a little slug.
Let me get you a little slug.
Don't act like that.
Hey, the favorite place, we had a little off-campus spot called the Blue Note.
Wings, they cook wings, they cook gizzards, they cook livers with that Texas toast.
Yeah.
And there was a young lady who used to work there named Wante.
I get on that payphone.
I'm like,
hey,
I'm like,
is Wante there?
This you, Shannon?
Yeah.
I said,
Wante,
hook it up for me now.
Okay.
Don't tell nobody.
Hey,
I ain't tell nobody
until like 15 years
after I left Savannah State.
Y'all wouldn't go for the bus
if I hustled.
Oh,
you did it for sure.
Hook me up.
No.
Hey, when you were a college boy, hey, it, my hustle. Oh, you did it for sure. Hook me up. No. When you were a college boy, it was a struggle.
You had to get in good with somebody who
worked in one of the best old restaurants.
Man.
I had a plug

hook. Oh, she was assistant manager.
Hey. Big Mac,

Joe, what these barbers doing, man?
This Joe was charging.
Look, y'all not professional athletes and entertainers.
Y'all trying to make $100,000, $200,000 a year cutting hair?
Well, it depends on who they're cutting, huh?
Yes.
Now, this right here, this is just content.
Now, there are barbers that, you know, barbers, barbers to the stars,
barbers to the athletes, barbers to the celebs,
that do charge a heavy penny for the people that they cut
because they got to travel with them.
They taking them away from other clients
that they could be doing because they
force their barbers to go on the road.
But I'm saying, okay,
for like certain situations, yes,
I'll fly my barber out here, but he's

He used to cut my hair all the time.
My brother used to cut my hair.

I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on Good Company,
the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next.
In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything
but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche
into mainstream gold,
connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen.
What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out
there. And if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content,
the term that we always hear from our audience
is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment,
and sports collide. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things
up a bit in the most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app,

Guided by his own words, this series explores Ali's life and legacy through never-before-heard audio recordings and discussions with those who knew him best.
Muhammad had this real sense of his own personal values and principles, things he believed in, his own sense of conviction.
Those convictions never wavered.
Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lani Ali, and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster,
John Ramsey, Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing ring to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary
life through conversations with Billy Crystal, Mike Tyson,
Rosie Perez, Common, Will Smith, and Bob Costas.
It created a North Star for me
of how I want to be in the world, you know.
As a child, as a young person,
he gave credence to my audacity.
There's no debate that this is the greatest
global sports figure of our lifetime.
Listen to Ali and Me,
now on Audible.
In the fall of 1986,
Ronald Reagan found himself
at the center of a massive scandal
that looked like it might bring down his presidency.
Did you make a mistake in sending
arms to Tehran, sir?
No.
It became known as the Iran-Contra affair.
And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second.
I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn.
In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra, you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago,
but which few of us still remember today.
The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you.

He poised and patient.
He's a big guard, 2-6-7.

Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
That's going to be a great series for Detroit.
Yep.
Yeah, so I like Cade.
I'm looking forward to watching him play in this postseason.
Dexter Jones said,
Ocho, if you bet $346 on the Lakers to make it to the finals,
it will pay out $5,200.
And up, ask Joe what he thinks about these one-on-ones
and if he wants to smoke.
See, Ocho, all you got to do is bet $346.
The Lakers make it to the finals.
Right.
I like it.
Or you can take your phone right now and download Cash App,
or you can download PayPal,
and I can send you your money right now
while we're still on the show. Ocho,
