¡Yor, ¿el que te va a hacer? ¡Tenerá un nuevo trabajo! Escuchéis lo que escuchéis, tapamos los ojos. La calle vamos todos a cieras, pero lo más aterradores no saberán que confiar. Uy de las personas que os piden que mireis, si queréis seguir convido. So we've got a lovely little collection here. I know Dan's been yelling about too many people in the studio, but you know what, man, I am also trying to build something in this company. It's something basketball driven and it's supposed to be intelligent and fun and you've caught some of this if you've been watching the post game shows on YouTube after each of these finals games. So without further ado,

I'm going to introduce some of the lovely faces in the crowd right now who have joined me. I've got Mode de Kiel, he's a former video coordinator with the San Antonio Spurs and the Los Angeles Clippers and it was also on the staff for the Australia National Team. Here you go. Yeah, here you go. Yeah, I feel like this is like a- Welcome home. Welcome home. Welcome home. Welcome home. I've got Charlotte Wilder, who's going to be my co-host on a- What? Did I get that away?

We're being nebulous. All right. It's going to be working with me in certain capacity. You're going to be working with you tonight, right? Oh, yeah. Absolutely. Yes, for sure. You're going to have two people in the arena. I'm going to be working with you tonight, right? As a part of that post-game coverage. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Yes, for sure.

But we're going to have two people in the arena. Yeah, now about that. Well, guess what? We're going to have three people in the arena because over in the back over there, we've got Jenna Garcia. Hey. What's up, everybody? Coming from Denver with a lot of Denver homer opinions, but good gambling stuff.

And Jenna, I'm going to put you on a spot. So you're getting ready, which is props for tonight. I don't like the Denver homers. I mean, like you can't work with it. What can I do with it? So I mean, hopefully it don't happen. It'll stop giving them. Also, we'll be in the building.

Ju-ju-gadi. We be at the game with us. You got another, sir. There it is. That's what we're doing. You're my hero, by the way. The star of media day, Ju-ju-gadi. Just going around, or roasting people.

Roasting people with a footwear. And to the back right over here, my god, 10-day Tony. 10-day, you gonna be at the watch along? I'll be at the watch along, yeah. There you go. Talking to people, shaking hands, kissing babies. Because this business has to be built, man. That's the thing that Dan doesn't understand, man.

He thinks like, oh, it's just gonna come in. No, you have to put your hands in the dirt, Dan. You gotta put your hands in the dirt and get it out of there. You gotta get those mixers set up. Look, man. You're from now, when this is a multi-billion dollar corporation, the whole point to this day, that was like, that's where they all changed.

When Rod Thorne walked in and said, hell the thing you guys got going on here. Game three is tonight, it's across the street from us. I'm very excited, mainly because it's across the street from us i'm very excited mainly because it's across the street from us i like the idea that we are the closest thing of any note to the arena even the media hotel they're staying is not close or not as close as us across the street and so uh... mo let's start with you

i see this question yesterday i think what adjustments do you think the nuggets are going to make based on what the heat did at the end of game two? Well, I think the first thing that we're going to do is one just play better and play harder, which is always an easy adjustment. But the, I think the way they attacked the zone is going to be more interesting. I think they spent too much time trying to get it to Yokech in the high post. And by the time he got it, It was laid up against the shot clock

I think we're gonna see more movement think we're gonna see them overload one side of the zone to open things up for them and get everything going from there I think we'll see a better attack from them against the zone Jenna I want to ask you something from basketball luminati today today's episode you guys could check it out wherever you get podcast Tom did his own research and he basically analyzed what happens when the nuggets have yokets shooting a lot versus passing whether it's a sister potential assist. And when the ratio tips in a certain direction toward shooting, the nuggets I believe are 0 and 3 this playoffs and seven and five on the season. Versus when he's more of a passer,

regardless of how much he scores, but in terms of that ratio of passing a shooting, their record is phenomenal. Yeah. Coach Sposter got irritated at Ramona Shelburn for saying, oh, make him a shooter, make him a passer, but based on your experience, what is it about when you could shoot to a lot I don't know, but I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. every one I've talked to that actually plays says this is silly he scored 41 points what are we talking about it doesn't matter like he was still a huge part of the offense obviously the three and oh in three record is not great but they had in lost again they had eight straight wins like a loss every once in a while is good for the team I think this was a needed loss they needed to lose so they can get back to their way of playing. What's wrong? Why are you smiling?

We asked you to stop with the homer takes. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no they need to go into a hostile environment with a chip on their shoulder. Jenna never sat on their friends. So they emptied out about 25% of the losses afforded to them in this doorknize series. Yeah, gave away home court. How much? Let's just throw home court away. We only played the entire season to get home court. But that's just how it went.

We need to give it away. How much has Charlotte been hanging out with through guts? I some more time I spent with two gods. The more I'm worried how similar I am. Just your guts. The same thing happened to Jessica. You guys remember like Jessica came in here with like principles and morals

and then like within a week of being around through guts, she's grifting left and right. And I'm like, and now you're a spit not cliches. So guts. Can I ask a question? Is two guts an infectious disease? Is this a, the more you're around him, he just, you become Stugats or...

Maybe he just brings out what was always into you. Ha ha ha! Only if he's out breaking. Oh yeah. I'm hearing you now. You do! That's yo, you're, you're, you're all one today. Ha ha ha ha!

Okay.
