00:00Cleveland Cavaliers last night at home when there's a four of their last five
00:03after an uncharacteristic four-game skid about two weeks ago. Booked as a
00:09double-digit home favorite against the Jalen Brunson-Less New York Knicks who
00:13have struggled against the top competition this season in general. New
00:17York jumps out to a 15-point lead midway through the second quarter. They led by
00:22seven at the break only for the Cavaliers to rally in the second half to
00:28win by 19 points 124-105 and still find their way to a cover as a ten-and-a-half
00:35point home favorite. The Cavaliers back on track they have won five of their
00:40last six extending their lead for that one spot in the Eastern Conference now
00:45to five games over the Boston Celtics and the New York Knicks. DRS Jalen
00:49Brunson in the lineup or not continue to mightily struggle against the best
00:54competition in their own side of the Association. New York now 0-3
00:58against Cleveland, 0-3 against Boston, 0-6 straight up and against the
01:03number against both the Seas and the Cavs this season. Yeah Jalen Brunson with
01:08the longest you know recovery time in the history of professional sports with
01:12an ankle injury where they tell us we don't want him at 99.8 we want him at
01:15full a hundred percent and you're right about this like and what we watch the
01:19football like down the stretch in December there are meaningless games
01:22but nobody ever says can we just fast-forward to the playoffs when you
01:25hit week 14 now we love it every single night and every single weekend like in
01:29the NBA we were just waiting for the playoffs with these meaningless games
01:33down the stretch like hey let's see what happens here in the Cleveland forgot
01:36about this game we're gonna blow the Knicks out oh no we're down almost 20
01:39points here let's start to play basketball and then beat the Knicks by
01:4220 points it's still NBA basketball it's still on TV we'll watch it we'll still
01:46handicap and bet but it's the only sport it feels like to me outside of baseball's
01:51final two weeks which take place in football season we just need to see the
01:55playoffs because I think the energy returns like the Knicks in a playoff
01:58game versus the Cavaliers we're all over that Ben that's three and four segments
02:01in a day what's gonna happen here ebbs and flows are you gonna bet on one night
02:05here can they come back the next night when they had a bad performance three
02:08nights previous those are fun nights it's amazing how the NBA has a
02:10meaningless regular season and then we get excited again for the what two
02:15months two and a half month run in the playoffs where we finally see a
02:18competitive basketball on a night-to-night basis
