00:03 Let's go to Cleveland here.
00:04 We got about a minute to go, Matt.
00:06 Cleveland has been the hottest team in the NBA, not named the Knicks, I guess.
00:09 They're six-point favorites tonight against the Nets.
00:12 They beat the Wizards 114-106.
00:14 Spider Mitchell had a big game.
00:16 Cleveland is legit, Matt.
00:17 Like, they're for real.
00:19 I mean, this may be the first, like, real run that they're gonna have in the playoffs
00:22 since LeBron was there, but their regular season has been fantastic thus far.
00:28 Yeah, but I feel like we thought that last year, too.
00:31 And then they just—the playoffs did not go well at all.
00:34 And maybe it was a bad matchup, or maybe it was just trying to figure out, you know,
00:38 Garland was younger, some of these other guys were younger, and it was Mitchell's first year.
00:42 I like them for sure, but you just look where are they gonna fall,
00:46 what that first-round matchup's gonna be.
00:47 So when you put up the odds there for their futures, I'm not too excited about them, honestly.
00:53 And you remember, a lot of these wins, a lot of this run has come with Garland out.
00:57 And obviously, he's a great player.
00:59 You think, well, they're gonna add him back and just be all the better,
01:01 but then you break up chemistry, then you break up some other elements of what's made them so good.
01:07 So I'm not a huge Cleveland guy, even though I recognize how good they are.
