• 2:01
  Speaker 2: do you have any pots that you're just gonna continue
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: to push forward?

  Speaker 1: friend Luisa out at the plaza outside the garden watching
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Game three in solidarity with each other and in unison
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: with each other. And speaking of watch parties, I gotta
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: tell you why I'm playing this clip, not only to
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: talk about Thurman, because it's the Yankees fifteenth win of
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the year, which they got fittingly in Ohio Cleveland yesterday
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: in Cleveland, Ohio, but Thurham's home state of Ohio, as
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: you know, but also because John Starks himself. We'll be
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: having a watch party in collaboration with Coaches Collectibles, and
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: you can find them at Coaches Collectibles one, and you'll
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: find him at Bull Smith's Tavern in Smithtown, New York,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: this Sunday, April twenty seventh. Game four, Now, if they
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: can hand the ball off and give the ball, I know,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: hand the ball off NFL now right, because that's the
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: draft tonight also and I want to updue a card
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: number three, But that's besides the point. Game three is
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: tonight Giants have the third pick. Everything comes in threes,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: I guess. I don't know. But for Sunday Game four,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: hopefully the Knicks have a lead. Hopefully they can get
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: the ball to Kat Karl Anthony Towns tonight a little
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: bit more. I trust the guy, and when it comes
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: down to the to the heart of it, when it
• 3:54

  Speaker 1: hands of Kat Karl Anthony Towns a little bit more,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: will you? And you know people are knocking Tom Thibodeau.

  Speaker 1: I also trust Thibbodeau in this moment as well. The
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: guy has helped us win a couple of postseason series
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: as head coach. I think you can continue that. I
