00:00Sports, what do we got over there, man?
00:01Well, we are going to start with basketball because the 76ers made their primetime debut
00:07national TV against the Milwaukee Bucks, but unfortunately, the Sixers lost to Milwaukee
00:15in this big Eastern Conference semifinals matchup, 118-117, as new Buck point guard
00:22Damian Lillard playing with Giannis, Lillard had 39 points and 8 rebounds for Milwaukee
00:30in the win.
00:31Now, the Sixers did not have James Harden, and there's now controversy with that.
00:38Apparently, James Harden tried to board the plane for the Sixers' trip to Milwaukee and
00:43thought he was going to the game.
00:44The security of the Sixers would not let him on the plane, and he was told by security to
00:51leave and return to Philly.
00:53Now, the NBA is investigating whether the Sixers or Harden violated any of the league's
01:00new participation policy.
01:02That's weird, huh?
01:03Which is what we were discussing about the NBA wanting their stars to play on national
01:07televised games.
01:08They didn't let him on the plane.
01:10Didn't let him on the plane, but then again, don't forget, he's missed practice.
01:15He's just decided to skip practice because he's feuding with Sixers president Darryl Morey.
01:21And it's crazy right now.
01:23It's what's going on with the 76ers.
01:26Those two need to sit down and have a little bit of a conversation and work something out.
01:30They just got to trade him already because apparently, but then he thought he was getting
01:35on the plane.
01:36So that's the weirder issue is that why he showed up, which is a little bit weird and
01:40creepy.
01:41But then, okay, he's getting on the plane.
01:43He's going to support his teammates.
01:44No, now you can't come on the plane.
01:46That's weird.
01:46Oh boy.
01:48It's a mess down there in Philly.
