Bernstein: ::reads something:: , "what do you think Terry?"

Boers: <guess>

Berns: "Actually, it's <this correct answer>"

Boers: "ah, that's right, mm hmm"

Is this the show where Dan asks Terry questions based on the contents of the survey and Terry, not having the foggiest idea what the correct answer is, mumbles and stumbles until Dan gives him the answer and Terry then says "Yeaaaaah, that's what I was thinking..."?

I win by a minute

Yep. That's it. Exactly what I was thinking. Mmm hmmm. Any dope would know that. For the love of God.

Minor spoiler - Lebron James was not voted the best defensive player in the NBA.

That's an hour. Actually, two, when you see who is.

Are GMs trying to say that white people never get the ball?

I think so. No other category has as much representation. Token category

The GM survey always rivals "Who's your guy?" as the biggest waste of time on the radio.

Who's your guy is probably one of the best segments they do. It's just an excuse to play drops, make jokes, and waste time during a period where nothing is going on in the sporting world.

I love "Who's Your Guy". But, I'm a draft guy, can't get enough draft talk.

Nice one badrogue.

GM survey is gun-in-your-mouth radio. It's worse than Who's Yer Guy because there's no levity involved and it's a veneration of the suits/executives.

Back off, Warchild. Seriously.

Oh, they'll think it's hi-larious that Noah is lauded.

Normally I'd agree, but I think it will dovetail back into the "it wasn't minor surgery" talk from, what, yesterday? Monday?

That said, I don't really have the first idea if Noah plays full-on spaz in the preseason normally. Even still, maybe he's reached a time in his life where he's getting smarter about not playing balls-out every single moment he's out there ... I mean, it does happen.

Noah indeed has a history of slow starts. Then again it was Cowley who's the one reporting major knee issues, so they'll probably be on that one a lot.

I think there's reason to be concerned until shown otherwise. Nothing wrong with noticing he doesn't look all the way there yet. He can turn it on in a week and change my mind.

What time are they doing NBA GM survey today?
