Nate Smith, David Wood, and Tom Pestak slunk to the podcast boost and lamented the lost opportunity against the Knicks. Nate spent a lot of time ranting about John Beilein. David Wood wondered whether coach was a plant to lose games. All agreed that Kev really was playing his butt off to get out of dodge. We complained about the game's horrendous officiating full of moments that literally would've been personal fouls in the NFL. We growled at the Knicks pinball bumper lineup of power forwards that seem straight out of a 2K video game.

In brighter news, the Super Bowl brought good memories to Nate, and we spent a good deal of time reminiscing about the commercials, J-Lo and Shakira, Patrick Mahomes' brilliance. We then got on the subject of the insane pyramid scheme recruiting email Nate had received and how the folks at SOS Success Dynamics really captured the Zeitgeist of this Cavs squad. We're still hoping for "maximum spillover" and that the Cavs will "cycle" soon, despite having (as Nate alleged) destroyed this rebuild year with dumb movies that toxified their tradeable assets.

Nate was ranty and took on the Cavs, the NBA, and commercials to task for their awfulness. While we pulled out the trade machine for a few trade scenarios for KLove. Finally, David Wood regaled us with his movie treatments: a basketball themed remake of the Cage/Travolta classic Face Off, but with Koby and Will Smith , or his Indie hit, Neck Tattoo Criminal 3: Fonzie Scheme, a crime noir about running out of stolen leather coats. Trust us. It's a wild ride.
