The Suns are dead. I proclaimed it. The Suns are dead. They don't look like they have any life to him whatsoever. They look anemic. Bradley Beal looks pretty bad.

The Timberwolves are good and they're deep. Their two stars [Towns and Edwards] did not play great and the Timberwolves still won easily because they're just so much better defensively. And the Suns play iso ball. It's terrible basketball to watch. I think the Timberwolves are really, really good.

The way it was kind of put to me is like, I feel, you know, 90, 95% sure that it's Bailey, but I know I've been throwing this long enough that if it's not a hundred percent, it's not a hundred percent. So it feels like it's Bailey at two. But when we're on the clock and we're on the set there, we don't know for sure if that's Bailey or not.
