You've been doing this for the whole time, and then you've been in the mood.

No, not at all. I'm so sorry. You're so sorry. You're all right? Yes, exactly.

I'm so sorry that I'm just a part of the studio.

I'm just a part of the studio or a part of the studio. I'm sorry. I'm not as sorry. I'm sorry. - I'm sorry. With this pleasure. Looked so young last night, dunking against Houston.

They beat Houston in the last two nights. Since, uh, due to you came on here and said the Laker stink. All of a sudden, their defense has gotten a little bit better. And they've dragged Houston a couple of times here. But what LeBron did last night, just dunking all over the place.

That's the oldest player in the league. It doesn't make sense that he would still be able to do that. You think there's any chance he plays tonight against the Miami. I don't. I don't. He not only did he play last night. Of course, not only has he played twice in the last three days.

But he did the thing where he heard his elbow and he laid on the ground for 10 minutes. I have a very hard time believing he plays tonight. It'll be disappointing. But I don't expect him to be here. The injury to his elbow was so painful. He forgot which one he heard.

And his leg stopped working.

That's why you have to lie on the ground. You can't stand if you're elbow-turt.

Windhorst said that he doesn't expect him to play, but LeBron now leads the NBA and fast breakpoints, which is crazy. And it was the best shooting game of his entire career going 13-14 from the field. That's a guy who shot 58% his best year in Miami. And he goes 13-14 last night and the oldest player in the league.

Not as old, 10 years younger. But you trust his body less. Yannis is insisting on playing here as the bucks want to shut him down. Is that optics? Does he love basketball? Like, what's happening there that Yannis is insisting on playing when the team is like,

"Never mind, Yannis, we can just bail on this season."

First of all, we all knew this was going to happen. When the trade deadline was coming up and he was hurt. It's like, "Okay, you're not going to trade him and you're going to want to tank. So you're not going to want to play." And we know that he's going to want to play.

So this is the exact scenario that we saw playing out. It's playing out right now. I do believe that optics are a major part of this. Because it allows Yannis to get to the all season. I wanted to be here. I play hard. The team didn't want me to play. Like, the disagreement that they're having right now is Yannis wanting to play.

You know, so it makes it look like the good guy in the whole situation. Right. I'm tired of it. And we know this has been a huge thing where he doesn't want to come off looking like the bad guy.

Yeah, I believe so too. He gets to point you. I want to play.

I need to go somewhere. I want to play. Juju, what do you got for us today, man? Thursday thunder. Baby, let's go. That's right. It's Thursday thunder. And it's presented by draft Kings.

Draft Kings. The crown is yours. Yes, sir. It's much man this time. So let's dig right in, man.

First up, I'm going with BYU to get the win over Texas.

AJ the best that I see you. Next leg, I'm going with Kentucky to get the win over Santa Clara. Santa Clara's dangerous. It's just one of them games. But I got faith in Kentucky in the Wildcats.

Third leg, I'm going with UCLA to win over UCL from so sorry Jeremy. I should have told you to cover your ears. That's on me, trigger one. And last leg, I'm going with Michigan State to beat North Dakota State. About 15.5 points over 15.5. I'm taking the spree. We got to know it.

Look at this run. We're not friends anymore. Juju, are we doing a new thing here? Are we giving out awards after shows these days? Yeah, man. Yesterday the post short awards was such a big hit.

So I'm bringing it back for the audience. We got to see the audience.

Man, I want to first off give the heroes of the week award

to the jury of the Afroman trial. For not blessing our laughing when something was be played. I'd have been laughing the whole trial, bro. I also want to give the kick save and abute awards to my guy Chris Cody, huh?

But at John Fantos, I'll step forward. I can't really do that. I'm going to give Dan the throwing someone under the bus award. That's spot. Good award.

Right. And to make sure we say even kicking that boot, the guest of the day award goes to John Fantos. I see you, brother. I got rock.

Look at the light. He's great. The unfortunate, fraughty and slip award. I'm so sorry.

I got to give it to Terminator Tashay for the whole

Dumb But you NBA situation.

That's crazy. We need to play that trip back. I saw that coming. It wasn't dumb. It was dumb.

But that's pretty much all. And I think that moving forward.

Afroman, if he was the one hit wonder,

he is now a two hit wonder because the one he dropped in court.

I might have bumped that this week. Lemon pound cake. Dude, dude, let's go over some polls today. We got. Yes, sir.

Man.

I'm putting these brothers up.

All right, man. Also, too. If you. I forgot to give the.

The sag after award to the crew who did the.

I wish goodbye. Video. Yeah. Really good. That's.

Great. Everybody who participated. Kirstie. Everybody. Salute.

Which is worse. A ruptured testicle. Or a fractured testicle. Yes.

91% of the audience says a ruptured testicle is worse.

Yeah. And let's go last poll on this one. Has anyone ever said the phrase. Eat you up and swallow you. Wow.

There you go. 69% of the audience says no they haven't. And those are your polls. You know what? I even tried to say that.

All right. But.
