Mom? I saw Dylan's dad make dinner, like actually cooked and it was straight fire. He said it was blue apron, assemble, and bake. All the ingredients showed up pre-chopped and he just laid it out on a baking sheet and no cap. Dinner was on the table in like 25 minutes. Apparently it's chef designed and it has like over 40 grams of protein. That's a lot, right? So maybe we try it. Just saying, you can be the next Dylan's dad.

How about our guy, Noah Eagle with the call last night on Peacock and NBCSN? No, just absolutely tremendous.

Look, I think you know, if you're a new listener, new viewer, old listener, old viewer, appreciate you, whatever type of fan you are of this show. You know that I love sports, and I know that you love sports. So we loved last night's game with the thunder and the nuggets in Oklahoma City. One of the best games of the NBA regular season, one of the best games period in any sport of this calendar year, one by the thunder, 129 to 126, SGA, like preposterous, like Jay-Z. And we played our No Church in the Wild coming back from break. This was like another Jay-Z song.
It felt like at the end of this game was Shake You'll Just Alexander. That song, you don't know. And the line, I will not lose ever. You don't know what you do to me, do to me. That's where you're wrong. SGA does know what he does to you. And he's now minus 700 to an MVP at that MGM. And it feels like as long as SGA, like Drew Dinsick said earlier, he's right. Like if SGA breaks his like, he won't win MVP. But as long as he hits 65 game minimum, Shake You'll Just Alexander is going to go back to back and win another MVP. Like Dooling the Coli-Yokeage last night, you know, just a casual for SGA, 35, 9, and 15. And in doing so, SGA now has 126 consecutive games of 20 or more points scored. Tying Wilt Chamberlain for the longest streak in the history of professional basketball.
Wilt did it from 1961 to 1963. And ever you're tying Wilt Chamberlain and something he did playing against like hardware salesmen in the early 60s, you know it's something impressive. SGA goes for the record Thursday night and how about this, a potential NBA finals preview against the Boston Celtics. Now I said this last week when we were talking about the Thunder following their win over the next. And I would touch on how OKC I think is going to become a great villain and a great foil for all of us that love sports talk about sports. Last night basically clenched it right with SGA's late game heroics a couple insane threes including the game winner. He's going to win another MVP and I want everyone to get used to this now because it's going to happen as long as he stays healthy. If and when SGA wins a second straight MVP, he will join the following players who have won back-to-back MVP's consecutive MVP's in the NBA, Russell, Wilt, Kareem, Moses, Larry,
Magic, Michael, Duncan, Nash, LeBron, Curry, Yannis, Yogic, SGA. What we're seeing is historic and this Thunder team is not going to win as many games as it did last year. The Thunder can win 67 games max, they've already lost 15, they win 68 and 14 last year. This team is better than last year's team. Consider this. Last night against a pretty up like the nuggets are healthy besides for Peyton Watson, Aaron Gordon's back. The Thunder beat the nuggets last night with no Jalen Williams, no Chad Holmgren, no Isaiah Hartnstein, no Alex Caruso. And it's gotten so ridiculous with this Thunder team, you better, you bet on this Tuesday Nick Asus with the U.S. to win sports. It's gotten so ridiculous that like every team, every player on this team is somehow unbelievable. AJ Mitchell 24 points, Jared McCain like his Darryl Morion hard drugs with his Jared
McCain trade, clutch shots from Jared McCain 13 points. And the Thunder are so ridiculous that like the black magic and voodoo employed by Sam Presty, when when when Jay Dubb doesn't play, we get another Jalen Williams whose name is spelled differently, whose score is 29 points. And it was a sick fast break out now fired, followed a fouled yoke itch on a four point play at the end, which enabled the nuggets to tie it before SGA won it. But I mean, like, okay, Jay Dubb's out. Let's bring a guy in with the same name to score 29. Do you understand how crazy this is, how loaded they are, how deep they are, beat the nuggets without Jalen Williams, Chad Holmgren, Hartnstein and Caruso when everyone's playing for Denver, except Peyton Watson. This team's going back to back and winning another NBA championship. I think everybody needs to get used to that right now. Speaking of right now, we'll not technically at this moment in time, but tonight, oh man, we're going to have to wait until tomorrow and for the end of the week to get the real
bangers in college basketball conference tournament play. And we will give you our our plays for tonight, plays for conference tournaments at the end of the show. And we do have some breaking college basketball news that I will, it's not that breaking or else, it's not like Cam Booster got hurt. We will do it. I'll do it to start next hour. But we have a great game in the NBA tonight that we will discuss for a few moments now in a segment that we're going to call Game of the Night. Game of the night. Very minimalist imaging there. I need a better throw. I can't say Game of the Night and then the imaging says Game of the Night. The game of tonight in sports in the NBA, the San Antonio Spurs, the San Antonio Spurs hosting the Boston Celtics, San Antonio, a three and a half point favorite. The total in the game is sold on as I have refreshed my Ben MGM screen.
Where okay, here we go. San Antonio, three and a half total in the game, two, twenty two and a half. The only piece of injury news in this game, Peyton Pritchard questionable for the Celtics. And when I conceptualize this game, I think the Spurs are more likely to win a championship this year than Boston. I think if they played in the NBA finals, I think the Spurs would win a seven game series against the Boston Celtics. And I think the Spurs are really the only team in the NBA that has a chance of beating the Thunder in a seven game series. But in this game tonight, with the price being what it is, with the Spurs more than a possession favorite at minus three and a half, the only way I can look is to bet the Boston Celtics plus the points. And I think we're getting Boston at a little bit of a discount here with Jason Tatum looking as good as he did, certainly on Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers that we want Peyton Pritchard to play. And I just have a feeling that we're going to have a big time Boston performance from
downtown tonight and end the San Antonio Spurs win streak. So do I think Boston will win? I do. Will I be a coward and take the three and a half and build in some cushion for myself? Yes. So give me the Celtics tonight to cover on the road in San Antonio against the Spurs. Some of the night, a good one Tuesday night, March 10, Spurs and Celtics, a potential NBA finals preview. Let's be honest, the Thunder will play in the NBA finals and win another NBA championship. Final hour, power hour coming up on the other side, we will get to that breaking news in college basketball and we'll continue to break down NFL free agency, Raiders, Jets and Titans.
