00:00-Pacers Guard TJ McConnell joins JMV at the beginning of the show to talk about the Pacers start of the season, if the Heat were still waiting for the Nuggets in the arena after the Pacers practice today, getting comfortable in Rick Carlisle’s system, the immediate impact of rookie Chris Duarte, if he can tell a difference in NBA ball this year going from Spalding to Wilson, and if back-to-back in Denver and then Salt Lake City is the hardest stretch in the NBA due to the altitude.

48:50-PFF Data Scientist and Betting Analyst Ben Brown joins JMV and is questioned to how he is a scientist and bestows him the honor of being the first “scientist” ever on the show.
