Gabe, what are you thinking about this big game tonight at the Rocket and the land?
00:04
Well, I'll tell you what, it's kind of flying under the radar, isn't it, this year, that
00:08
the Cleveland Cavaliers are that good and the Oklahoma City Thunder are that good as
00:14
well.
00:15
We're all in football mode.
00:16
People really don't start paying attention to the NBA until after the Super Bowl.
00:20
But tonight's matchup, to put in perspective, guys, and this is mind-blowing, it's the first
00:25
matchup in NBA history between a team on a 15-game winning streak and a team on a 10-game
00:30
winning streak.
00:31
It's never happened before.
00:32
It's the first inter-conference game in NBA history between teams with a winning percentage
00:36
of 8.50 or higher this late into the season.
00:39
It's the first time in NBA history that multiple teams have had a winning streak of 15-plus
00:43
games in the same season since the Bucs and Raptors in 2019 and 20, or the second time
00:50
in NBA history that multiple teams have won at least 30 games in their first 35 games
00:55
in a season.
00:56
Lakers and Bucs in 71-72, and to top it off, this is pretty wild, Oklahoma City, plus 12.1,
01:04
Cleveland, plus 11.8, on pace for the fourth and fifth highest point differential in NBA
01:10
history.
01:11
Some wild stuff and some pretty crazy numbers they're putting up, but, you know, like a
01:15
band that you and I like, Scott, Megan Death, one sec, so far, so good, so what, right?
01:21
Talk to us in June.
01:22
So it's a cool regular season matchup.
01:25
I just laid it out.
01:26
It's pretty wild, like in a history, in a league, you know, this is the best regular
01:30
season matchup ever, but, all right, go to the window and bet on the Cleveland Cavaliers
01:35
to win the NBA title right now.
01:37
Go to the window and bet on the Oklahoma City Thunder to win the title right now.
01:41
I'm not saying they can't win, Scott, but a lot of work left to do for both these teams.
01:45
Still, right?
01:46
To prove it in the playoffs.
