Transcript
First question that I wanna rank, and I think the OGs will appreciate this because you're an OG follower of Nick No Ball, and I remember you followed off a worst, bro. It was like a quick selfie that I good, and it was wouldn't mind a quick twenty two and seven from Jarrett Rank right about now. So I just wanna ask you, Con, what resonated with you about that post and be like, yeah. You know what? I'm gonna give Nick a follow after this one. Yeah. No that's a funny one because we went to Bucks games all the time. I'm I'm from Milwaukee. The Bucks were they're really cheap because they're they're bad for a long, long time before Giannis got there. So I remember going to the Bucks, Cavs, 15 win season that the Bucks had with Brandon Knight. Gary Drew was the coach. Bad Bucks team. But I went to a game where they played the Cavs. Kyrie is on the squad, and I think it was tier. And then Jared Jack was the backup point guard. Brought me back to that game a little bit. It was it was a Bucs win. It resonated a little best. But, yeah, Tier was pretty early to the count. I just started getting your stuff, and I was like, I I like where this is heading. You saw the vision. You saw the vision. I respect that. You brought him back to one of tier wins with that one post. I love it. Yeah. I gave you some PTSD with that, so my bad. My bad.
