All right, let's bring Juju aboard here. Juju last night, Oklahoma City. They lose the home court advantage right away. Are the champs in trouble? Yes, sir, man. I'm going to go through it real quick because Dan, he mentioned the experts of the show. Dimeen says this.

Michelle Bito says this. Only one person has a basketball podcast, but here's, not the hit or there. Carter Bryant, defense on SGA, Magnificent. Mark Dagnall made some great adjustments on offense, but on defense, he did not, because you can't keep Caruso on Wemby. What was going on there? Someone that knows basketball, Juju, please, Tony, you get into,

the whole game, why is he guarding Wembe? Right. He does a great job on Yokich and some of the more stiffer, flat-footed guys, because he's a good base, but he can't account for Wemby airmailing and grabbing the ball way up here and never bringing it down. What you think, Tony? I think that's a great point. I think Daug-N-O-W-W-Wing. got caught in a trap of what he did to Yokic last year or it was like, all right, if we can get a guy who can get underneath him and force him to get the ball and move around, it's going to be easier for us to defend him and then to send a second guy off ball. The issue is when, like

you said, Juju, when you can throw the ball 10 feet in the air and Wembe could just go and get it and then turn around and dunk it without leaving his feet, it's like, yeah, it's an unguarded play. And then you can't have Chet on. Chet is an absolute bum. I don't want to see Chet ever on my screen again. The guy sucks. Okay, don't put him in a commercial. Don't put him on social media. I want to put him on a milk carton. I don't ever want to see him again. Whoa. But to that point, Joju, and you can talk to it, like,

there's nobody on that team outside of Caruso that I feel like can guard him. Maybe they have to bring in Kenridge Williams a little bit to do something. Right, right. To that point, like you say, Kenridge Williams, I also don't see how you don't find time for Isaiah Joe. He's been a great shooter from the perimeter. He come in and knock down shots. They miss so many shots in the beginning.

Also, 61 to 40 on the rebounds. Can't have that happen. Hartstein, two rebounds. What the F, my brother, you did? But Dylan Harper, great job. I mean, he's a rookie. He had some rookie mistakes, but he filled in great for Fox, 24 bit points. Stefan Castle, 11 big turnovers, still overcame it.

Caruso 31 big ones. I love it. But the most important thing and question I have is, Zaz, who is the MVP of the day? be of the day. Oh, I'm so glad you asked, Juju. If we're going to talk about the MVP, we better have a conversation

about Victor Wenboniama. That's right. The Spurs, they take game one behind Wembañama's 41 points, 24 rebounds. He also had three block shots. He owned the game last. night. Now I'm not saying there aren't other good players on the floor. I'm just saying we may have to have a conversation about Wembenyama for MVP.

Yes, we should. VP of the day. Juju, let's update some polls here. Go ahead. Quickly. What do we got? Yes, sir. Before I update the polls and pull them up, I want to make one minor show correction from today. Dan says that Zaz's podcast has grown because he's close to us. I will be down. Zaz's podcast has grown because it's awesome. Oh, how about that?

There we go. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Good one. Who feels better today? Alex Newhook or Victor Wimbignam.

66% of the audience says Victor Wimbunbigham. It's unbelievable, man. Do you want to be honest for a second of a point of vulnerability when Dan said that I was like, who the hell? the other guy. Same. An assistant coach in San Antonio. It's a series winning goal in game seven. Is there some sort of political thing he's talking about?

In Ovat. I was supposed to mean. Like, that's cool. I didn't see him on the bench. Who's on the ice? He's going to get you. Call me when Connor McDavid does it, okay? Yeah.

It was his second series victory. It's the second time he won a series. Yeah, that's cool, Dan. Yeah, that's cute. What team is he put for again? Watch your old Canadians. Oh. Yeah.

Is Wimby going to ruin the league or save it? 30% of the audience says ruin it, 33% of the audience says save it, and 37% of the audience says both. It's perfect. Do you stop growing at 22 years old? 52% of the audience says, yes, you do. Greg, this is a big one.

If Greg can only do one, which one do you want? The catchphrase update? or Greg doesn't know movies. 64% of the audience says the catchphrase updates. Right. Thank you. You'll get those tomorrow. I'll say we didn't get them today.

He's back tomorrow, folks. Yeah. It's John, yes, sir. It's Jaws the greatest horror movie of all time. 75% of the audience say, no, does a beret change a man? 90% of the audience says, yes, it does. Should it be the empire? strikes back, Jack.

80% of the audience says, yes, Tom Hanks' most famous role, Forrest Gump or Woody. 82% of the audience says Forrest Gump. Whoa. Wow. The kids must not be voting just yet. It's too early. And last poll,

more impressive. Pablo winning the Pulitzer or Mina winning Jeopardy. 63% of the audience says Mina and those are your polls.
