00:00
All right, East Standings for you here.
00:03
Obviously, Cleveland and Boston are the two teams.
00:06
They've already clinched spots.
00:07
They're out ahead.
00:08
Knicks in three, Bucs, Pacers, Pistons,
00:12
all in the safe zone.
00:14
Atlanta, Orlando, Chicago, Miami.
00:18
So Miami's dropped to 10th.
00:20
Chicago's past them, Atlanta's past them.
00:23
I don't know if they can fall further.
00:25
I mean, they got six games in the loss lead
00:27
over Toronto and the Nets.
00:29
But I guess if you lose every single game,
00:31
it's possible, I guess it's possible
00:34
if they keep losing every single night.
00:36
Well, I mean, it was like they were up two
00:39
or something at the half at the garden.
00:41
And then they melt down in the second half
00:44
and they lose every game.
00:45
It's almost like they're throwing games.
00:48
Like they were playing great ball in the first half.
00:51
And then in the second half, they did nothing.
00:53
Look, they don't matter anyway.
00:54
None of that is even relevant.
00:57
Here it is, Cavs, Celtics, Knicks.
01:02
I think the Bucs and Pacers and Detroit,
01:06
just even those six are, I think, gonna be fantastic.
01:10
You can't write off the Pistons.
01:13
I think they'll lose in the playoffs
01:15
because they're inexperienced.
01:17
But I think that they're gonna show up
01:19
and give someone problems.
01:21
And then the Pacers can beat anybody.
01:24
They proved it again last night, right?
01:28
There's something about that team
01:30
that you cannot write them off.
01:32
I'll tell you the team that doesn't impress me at all,
01:34
and I gotta be honest, it's Milwaukee.
01:37
I mean, look at them.
01:39
They get whacked.
01:40
Whenever they play anybody good, they lose.
01:43
And the Knicks don't beat good teams,
01:45
they beat everybody else.
01:46
So at the end of the day, I still think,
01:51
believe it or not, it's Cleveland and Boston.
01:53
And then my outsider's still Indy.
01:56
Well, you know what Milwaukee's problem is.
02:00
They got a dock problem.
02:02
Ever since they brought Doc in,
02:04
that team has completely changed since they brought Doc in.
02:08
They got a dock problem there in Milwaukee.
02:12
How about this guy out west, Budenholzer?
02:14
He was their coach, right?
02:15
Now look at him.
02:17
He can't even go a game without getting in a fight
02:20
with the Slim Reaper.
02:22
He's got all kinds of problems.
02:23
He's got about a month of work left.
02:26
He's getting chopped.
02:26
He's got no shot.
02:28
And that's gonna be-
02:28
Players hate him.
02:30
Three coaches in three years.
02:32
And they'll be on four coaches in four years
02:33
with the next one that they hire.
02:35
Manny Vogel got one here.
02:37
This guy got one here.
02:37
He needs a Budweiser.
02:39
You need a Bud, all right.
02:41
Lots of Buds.
02:42
And the Celtics, by the way,
02:43
they're still the favorites.
02:44
Minus 140 in the Eastern Conference with the Cavs.
02:47
So those two teams there, Cavs and Celtics, as you said,
02:51
rightfully the favorites moving forward there in the East.
02:55
But the Cavs have got a little closer to them at least.
02:57
You know, it's not the big gap that it once was.
03:00
I would honestly pay money to watch them
03:03
down the Celtics in the playoffs.
03:05
I would actually pay to see that.
03:08
Like here, let me give you a thousand bucks
03:10
just to watch them lose.
03:12
I hate them so much.
03:13
I want to see them lose, no matter what, to whoever.
03:16
If they lose to anyone, that's it, I'm done.
03:19
I'll be happy with whatever outcome there is in the NBA.
03:23
At the end of the day, the whole thing,
03:25
the kit and caboodle, the championship, whoever's crown,
03:28
as long as it's not them.
03:32
Look, everybody wants to see Boston lose,
03:34
unless you're from Boston.
03:36
Everybody wants to see the Celtics win, it'd be great.
