We have done shows all week long with zero games, so I never want to hear about load management ever again run it back starts now Happy Wednesday morning. Oh, look at this lovely panel of all black shirt wearing gentlemen We have stadium insider Shamsher Rania. Very very sir. Are you still on the road shops? I Am I'm in Park City, but I'm flying home today this afternoon at 2 p.m. So did you get I did not get skiing in yet. Yes. It was super busy by the time I could get a chance of like 2 p.m It's snowing like crazy out here, so I did not get a chance I will be back eventually hopefully someday someday Chandler P in his bizarre art museum Situation that we've grown to love over the last couple weeks and edgy in a very a very cool looking spot Eddie G. I like that for you. I like it a lot. All right, thank you location undisclosed games We have one day until we get to see some more basketball But that does not mean that the NBA is not still making news because yesterday I'm not gonna call it a gift because this guy didn't get a gift Nate McMillan fired his head coach of the Hawks 29 And 30 right now. They're sitting at 8th in the East. I guess the timing It's probably the question here Shams There were other times earlier this season specifically that this might have been more sensical like why why now? Well, I think the reason this happened now is they had two really bad losses right before the all-stop rate to Charlotte and to New York One of those games they gave up I think 144 points I think they looked at that is a bad sign going into the second half of the season And we've been talking about Nate McMillan's future since December when he had that incident with Trey young where Trey young No showed to a game After his exchange with Nate McMillan at a pregame shoot around in December We've been discussing Nate McMillan's future and the fact that whether it was in season or in the off season He was not long for this job He was going to be fired eventually and that's when several weeks into December I reported that he he attempted to step down as that coach He wanted to resign from his duties and so that's where the writing was on the wall He was going to be out after the season anyway So I think the Hawks preempted it get it out of the way now Especially after two really bad losses and so they're going to start a search They are trying to make a hire in season and so a few guys will really look at Quinn Snyder Kenny Atkinson Charles Lee Geordie Fernandez. This is a team. That's 29 and 30 8th in the Eastern Conference a lot of turbulence Travis Schlank goes from president to now basically not in the organization Nick Nick McMillan goes from head coach a guy that's on a three or four year extension to now now He's not a head coach anymore there. So they're shuffling They've they've restacked the decks there and we'll see which coach they try to bring in But I would I would keep an eye on Quinn Snyder and Charles Lee and if they're trying to go big game hunting Quinn Snyder as the best resume and probably the best available candidate of anyone right now I mean look Landry feel a lot of these movements were made in December, right? Like a behind the scenes They're not as sexy so we probably didn't talk about them as much But Landry Fields is their GM now that happened in December when as you mentioned Travis Schlank slept step down So things have been happening behind the scenes Right now Joe Prunty former spurs video coordinator is the interim coach. The timing is bizarre Chandler Obviously, they're saying that this is good for the team moving forward But now we get to discuss whether or not it's good for the team moving forward We're gonna run the floor and I asked you first Chandler. Was this a good decision? I mean look it seemed like the writing was on the wall in a situation like this like Shams just said but the whole Trey young incident He was gonna step down He wanted to leave now and I do think it's the right decision just because he's gonna be gone anyways, right? Not that Nate McMillan deserved to be fired actually everything.  I just think that the Hawks made the move for Dejante Murray They're very underachieving this season so far They had high expectations and they're battling right now on the eight seed and they have a lot of talent So I don't I think they strongly believe that they can make a splash here They could hire a guy like Quinn Snyder who's an unbelievable coach And they still have the talent when you look at their roster with Bogdanovist Deandre Hunter John Collins has been on the trading block for about six years and aren't moving him They have the talent they have the pieces They're just not playing well right now and someone's got to be the fall guy And this is exactly why I would never want to be a coach because it is a tough. What have you done late for me lately? It's not necessarily fair But at the end of the day they are underachieving and they're not winning as many games They expected them to win and that usually falls on the head coach Especially when you have a star player like Trey young who in the headlines has publicly got into it with them Doesn't go to shoot around or doesn't go to the game That's all stuff that makes it seem as if Nate McMillan doesn't have a hold on his team Let alone a star player and usually it's going to crack down on him But I think they're they have enough talent on this roster to win some games and just a change might be the best thing for them Eddie, what do you think? Yeah, it's very interesting the timing of course But I don't know when else they could have done. I guess maybe Monday, you know, but yeah They didn't blow it up at the trade deadline. They clearly want to make a run this year They're only a season and a half removed from a conference finals berth And that was a constant promise birth that they felt they could win Trey young got hurt in that series And they were right there and they felt like they could have made a finals run And then who knows so, you know, they didn't trade John Collins. They didn't trade the hundred They didn't trade Bogdanovitch all these guys that were rumored for months and months and months and John Collins Everybody had him traded by now. So clearly they feel like they had the talent to make a run So they need a new voice there What I wonder is how much of this trickles back to Trey young they they obviously bumped heads They quite publicly acknowledged that they bumped heads the CEO could Deny soms report all he wants, but here we are a month and a half later And and Nate McMillan is no longer the coach of this team So, you know, when you got a guy who can average 30 points a game and give you 10 assists tonight And he's willing to go to the front office and say hey me or him It's always a dangerous job for a coach So, you know, I don't know if Trey cares to break that stigma or what but it's there And it's an interesting time for this franchise because yes, they didn't blow it up in February They didn't blow it up the Trey deadline, but what's to stop them from blowing up this summer What's to stop them from calling around and wondering what the price tag is for Trey young for their new coach They're new GM and and a new regime out there in Atlanta as they want to build a new franchise You know, they're definitely a team to watch. I got Trey high atop my disgruntled stars list When you look at all those teams that are gathering five six seven draft picks and wondering what they can turn it into It might be a Trey young you might be able to turn that into Trey young this summer Yeah, look, you never want to get that coach killer, you know reputation and I can speak from the first time The first one was not Trey young's fault. I was there in Atlanta Lloyd Pierce was not a good fit. He was not a cool dude. He was not a great dude He wasn't a great coach in my opinion. He was my least favorite coach. I've ever played forward to be honest with you. And so That wasn't Trey young, yes, they butted heads But Lloyd did not know how to manage the young talent He didn't know how to manage Trey young kind of becoming the star player that he kind of went rogue there And in my opinion deserve to get fired Nate McMillan is another story I haven't heard nothing but great things about them. Obviously I was in Atlanta So I have my own personal experience This is different and again Trey young is a scoring, you know Point guard that's young and he's not the most mature leader on a team, right? And so I think the best thing for Trey young is for them to bring in a star that kind of relieves him from being that guy Because I think his best asset is facilitating the ball. He's got a great vision He's always gonna be able to score points It's always gonna do a shoot the ball from extremely deep But I just think the more he grows and the more he matures as a player I think he's better off as a two or three option than being the main guy because This isn't good for him because now this is this is the second coach and this is the GM And now he's got you know, it's just it's not a good look whether it's his fault or not And as much as things fall on on the head coach They're gonna said a lot of the falls on the star player and this is Trey young's organization They gave him the contract. They drafted him. They traded him for Luca donkic on draft like this He's got the keys And the car is not really going anywhere So they had the great year where they advanced in the playoffs last year They made the big trade this year and now they're kind of underachieving and they're in panic mode But I'm not giving up on them. Well, yeah, I still think they have talent And I do think Trey is a star and he has the chance to kind of Get over this hump of this reputation of being a coach killer because the first one wasn't his fault Yeah, I mean, I think with Trey young It's a tough situation because they were gonna fire name McMillan regardless of whether whatever happened with Trey young And so the writing was on the wall but for Trey young to put himself in that situation Where he was combative with with the head coach and decided not to show up to the game And I think that's where the the organization from what I'm told over the last 24 to 48 hours They just came to the conclusion that the players had fully tuned out name McMillan They did not feel like name McMillan had a pulse on this team anymore that his time was over And so it was really just ripping the band-aid off and that's exactly what they did I mean good lord. It was like a season. I have two seasons ago. He was the savior They were in the garden. They were like America's sweetheart team and he's talking smack to everybody Like it's crazy how quickly everything can turn obviously now the search for a new coach goes on as of right now Whether they trade him or not eddie, which I that has validity to it as far as what you're saying But it's his team. So Chandler, how much input do you give a Trey young When you start looking at the names you're seeing on the screen right now for potential new coaches I think you bounce some ideas off him and landry fields was a player He understands that you need to make a guy like Trey young You need to make a guy like John T. Murray their star guys that are a part of their future They need to make them happy They need to make them comfortable with this decision because they have to vibe They have to get along and if Trey's not going to get traded and he's going to be there He's a he's the main part of the success of their future with this new coach So I definitely think that you're they're going to go to him and ask him and you know Have an opinion. Is it going to be the final say? I don't think Trey has that kind of juice And I think everything that's led up to this moment It has kind of lessened for Trey young to where he'll still have a voice and who have an opinion But I don't think it's going to be like a You know a luka donkets juice anymore that he would have or someone like that because of the history Because of the two coaches because of travis stepping down a lot of the media scrutiny has fallen on Trey And so I definitely think they'll make him as comfortable as possible But they're not just hiring who Trey young wants at this point. I don't think so So I have a I have a proposition for eddie, but before Just that's that's a tease because I want you to get really excited mentally inside Before that though, I have a quick question because it seems across the board and we saw the george carl Tweet earlier that it's a it's a me league versus a we league, right? It's donchage versus or it's lukic versus tray that kind of mentality A lot of people love nate mcmillan like I've heard nothing but positive things if you're an up and coming coach Or one of these guys on the list Do you take that into consideration if offered this job or is the ego of a coach such that you think it's not going to affect me Chandler, what do you think like is that you know, coach is more than most like it does they even take that into consideration Yeah, if i'm a young dude like lee from the warriors and I actually have an opportunity to get a you know Three to five year deal and and with all this history of trai young It's almost like trai young is like hiring Irving now where he's gotta behave. He cannot have another coach They can hire a young guy and I think before they fire the next coach. I think they would trade trai young So yeah, I would take it.  I think the next coach they hire That's who they're gonna buy that's who they're gonna roll with with this roster and whether they make a move or not for trai That that's up to him and how he meshes with whoever they hire It's the eye can change him. I love it. Okay eddie the movie eddie This is the scenario. I present you with you are offered the moment. You want to coach the hawks or what? Yeah, I'd coach the team that the white hired place for it in china. What are you talking about? Of course, I'd coach the hawks. Um You know, this is a team with talent This is a team with a style of play that is shown in his work and Two young all-stars who we know our talents in the league and one of the most important positions. So It's it's absolutely Enticing job it and especially if you can build that relationship with trey and go from there or like chandler said walk in knowing that Yo, there's only so much left for him to do before You know, they they go get somebody else from me. Uh, I think it's you know, probably the best job available right now Right for enough.  Which player is under the most pressure to win a title I think it's jokic. I think we continue to see what he does during the regular season He's never won a championship. He's 21 and 27 in the postseason. We're talking about one of the all-time greatest centers of all time Possibly a back to back to back MVP That is all fine and dandy and he is a tremendous talent But you're gonna eventually to be one of the greats and to be compared to these guys You're gonna have to go deep into the playoffs You're gonna have to get to the conference finals and you're gonna have to win NBA championships to be up there with the shacks and these other bigs that you want to kind of Be in the same breath as and so I do think there's a level of pressure for for him Uh, because he's a regular season player. He's the best player the last three seasons And the postseason he's not really the same and he doesn't really win. He doesn't get to the finals. He's not advancing So, uh, I think this is a big year for him. They've had the best team pretty much all year long in the western conference I don't really see a team besides phoenix and the clippers. Maybe the warriors Maybe the grizzly. I mean, I there's no frontrunner to kind of win the west So it's wide open. So if there was ever a year for him to kind of solidify it When the when the commerce championship Then it's going to be a tall task to either beat one of those teams in the east But to me, it's yoke. It's great regular season player To be a great you got to win championships though And he was missing guys like I think that was the frustration too and they're healthy right now So that's that's a big part of it. Eddie, who do you have? I have James Arden, you know, we're talking about a former MVP still in his prime It's only 33 years old. He looks rejuvenated He's on his third team in three years and he asked out of the two previous teams Because he wants a title he has a team now that is capable of winning the title And they even got rid of one of their biggest adversaries in the eastern conference the net so they broke up So, you know, what is at this point? What are we waiting for with James? What more could he ask for? It's it's time for him to step up in the playoffs and beat his reputation Which I think is somewhat earned of you know, being a playoff Choke in a sense and and also prove that his style of basketball Can win for playoff serious, you know He One of the things I do hang my head on when it comes to James Arden He won more games against KD's warriors than LeBron James did like so He went as far as he could take those teams. He just lost to an all-time great thing But he has a real opportunity now to make a run. He has a great co-star Maybe honestly, he's the co-star, but he has a great guy star next to him In jollo and beat and he has more than enough to win the title It's time for him to do it and the crazy part is we know we're going to get incredible performances from jollo and the playoffs We know we're going to have exciting stuff from thyrise maxi It really rests on james to set the table for everybody and to kind of do his part and push the team to the next level Yeah, I mean chanler, we've seen nicolio could get to the conference final We haven't seen this jollo and beat era and this james arden team get to this To the conference finals. So that's the goal in phil delphi like that is The benchmark to get to the conference finals and so if they're losing in the second round the first round And then that's when the questions will come back into play when you talk about the coaching staff You talk about james arden's future So I think there is a lot more unanswered that could occur if this team falls short of expectations with denver We know what they've kind of been year in and year out, but for sure nicolio Okay, that's the next step for him on on his on in his path to greatness is trying to compete and get a championship It feels like that for the entire denver team like they just seem to be in that weird Purgatory until they do it that we don't we don't respect them the same as we respect other teams perhaps. Uh coaches chanler, which coach is under the most pressure to win a title? I think it's doc river. I think for all the reason that that eddie just touched on they have a very good team They have guys in their prime. They have the most dominant big Joel who can win you games and and doc rivers. We all know he he's he's blown three three series being up three to one There's a lot of pressure on them. He's been there before But this is arguably his best team outside that boston team that he's had and and they have a chance Like basically everything that eddie just said you got james harden rejuvenated They have young talent They're deep and they have joel and be that there's no real excuse besides having to go through Milwaukee or boston because I think whoever wins the east this year is going to win the mba championship and I just find it that doc He I think it's it's it's his this is this is his time and again, hopefully they don't get up three one because if he does Because if he doesn't for a time, I don't know man, that would be tough, but I think there's some pressure for him Eddie why upset Oh, because it's the same I I gave Chandler his argument. You're welcome big fella, but no, it is the same That team is built to win a championship. They're built to win now They made the trade the ben Simmons trade Then the interesting nugget there is a lot of the ben Simmons breakup Did rest on doc and then there was a lot of grievances Going his way from from ben and within all the reports and all the goods all that stuff But they bought high on doc rivers and you look back that title is now 15 years ago So he's been resting on that and look it's a title. They wanted it was a great run And they were a great team But yeah, like at some point we do weigh the title and the playoff failures and it's been 15 years So yeah, I think a lot of pressure on doc We were doing shows when we started running back in october saying yo Is doc rivers going to get fired in a couple weeks and he's turned that around but but that pressure still exists They can still replace him. They got aggressive ownership They got an aggressive front office and they want to win. They know exactly what they have what's oil and bead So it would be nothing for them for them to Go wonder what Quinn Snyder is doing go ask email. Doka. He's ready to come back Go figure out what what's next big name coach would want to coach that team And uh, so yeah, there's a lot of pressure for him. I I think it's him and I think there's a gap between him and the next guy too It's crazy feels like they're in a good spot, right? There's drama going around the league But they're just sort of quietly getting the job done and but inevitably I feel like the time of year comes around Doc's job gets The ego is losing the super bowl the filly's losing Curies, I think the something else it was software MLS lost Yeah, man This could be the year for filly to break that whole that whole curse or just complete it in its entirety The same thing everyone else is doing Either way All right, well, we'll still we'll stick with teams now. Um, I don't know if you guys are picking filly But chaylor, which team is under the most pressure to win? I think this one's pretty obvious. I think it's the phoenix sons. I think The move they just made they basically said we're winning now. We don't really care about our future We're gonna and we're gonna get kevin durant We think's the best player and chris paul is older and devin booker and kevin durant We now have the best duo in the mba Surrounded by a big deandre eighton That's playing well that can knows how to play with stars and they just unloaded all their picks for first round picks You know, they're young stars and mackayl and cam Uh, this is it for them and when you bring on someone like kevin durant his stature and his age There's a there's a there's a time limit and it's it's right now and they have the pieces They have the talent chris paul is obviously a year older is not himself But he's still a valuable player and I think he'll be really good with with d book and with kd And so I think they have the talent like I just said too The west is is wide open dimbers are great regular season team You I love what the clippers did but I think it's going to come down to dimbers the clippers and this team right here But they made the move they made this flash to basically solidify that we're all in on this year I mean, I have to I hate to but I have to you make that move you trade for the best player or one of the best players or However, you rank them, but you trade for kd in the middle of the season You're saying yo, this is tidal or bust your owner is doing interviews your new owner matt ishba It's doing the same thing. I want to win this year. I want to win next every year. I don't I don't want to do I don't want to do rebuilds. I don't want to do none of that This is just winning and so you put that pressure on yourself and they're right to and the only reason we don't have kevin as the Most pressure when is he has titles and it's chris paul. It's like well, he started in pecking order now I don't know if it's it necessarily his pressure or whatever, but as a team when you make that move you're absolutely saying yo We're the team that went all in in the trade deadline the the mavericks you could kind of say but They got him for a steal. They got kairi for a steal. They knew they bought love. They knew it But the sons are saying we traded our two future wings One guy who we think could make an all-star team when a when a defense player the year award He's that great. We traded all of our graphics. We're saying this is our team right now So they put the pressure on themselves. It's not really even us saying it The pressure is on them to win a title and I think they won it that way. That's that that was their plan Well, this is year four of to me uh, the koala Leonard paul george regime year four They have to have a lot of pressure as well. I think phoenix for no doubt All the reasons you guys just mentioned they have a lot of pressure I think that team has a couple more years of shelf life. This is year four koala Leonard paul george They've not been able to get past the conference finals koala Leonard's missed time They've been in and out of the lineup. So I wasn't going to make a pick But to me the clippers and just everything that's gone on the last four years This is I mean you're going to be entering year five next year and no championship Ty lu, you know, he's been pretty vocal about the frustrations that he's had Just dealing with the ins and outs of players in the lineup. So I think you know, you fall short of expectations this year You have a whole set of questions whereas phoenix I will say even if they don't get to the finals or losing the conference finals You can you know where their their team is that you know where their focus is that Right like that that just got put together. So if they did if they didn't make it, it wouldn't be shocking Um, I like the clippers pick shams. I feel like I can't believe it's year four But let's just say you had a runner-up eddie. Let's just say it's not phoenix Is there anyone else that you think is under any kind of pressure right now because I feel like there's one I mean shams just sold me Especially when you watch she goes to xander being all started here at 24 and know that you traded Him away for paul george.  There's no real pressure outside of those two and now i'm all alone the shams Clippers have pressure year year four going to year five and also it's not like they're young They're not getting the younger over there and they're even just as banged up as Book and all them. So that's a good one jobs.  All right, finally Chandler which team is under the most pressure to tank their faces off for women yama See this this one's I think it's your spurs michel And here's why because when you look at a team like, you know, okay See, there's not even really tank any more houston or lando. These these teams have pieces. They have assets They have a lot of young talent when you look at the spurs, you know, this this is it, you know, they have Helden johnson. They have to sell they they have some guys but You know, they this is reminds me of the tank in here to get tim duncan This could be a franchise changing Peace I think I saw something yesterday the guy he actually measured at seven foot five or something like this is who you want This is the misery you go through of a season like this This is why you trade all your assets to put yourself in a position like this and Like I said, or lando has palo and and fronds and and those type of guys houston has jailing They have talent when I look at the spurs, there's This is this is tailored for to get this kid So I I think they have the most pressure because without him it's going to be another year like this Oh, you're so hot. Thank you. It's probably going to be another year like this, but at least the future is bright Okay, well, we have like four 19 year olds. So I I mean, that's that's a bright future right there And that's not even exaggerating by the way Um, yeah, no, look, it hasn't even been a year of misery It's actually been sort of fun to watch young kids try really hard and be hungry and at the same time Inadvertently sort of accomplished. I guess a goal perhaps of maybe getting one step closer to women. Yama. I will say this about women Yama seven five Makes me so nervous Like am I the only one that saw that yesterday and think oh my god I worry for the health of a seven foot five human being am I wrong anyone? Please tell me I'm wrong It's tough because chet just went through the same thing and he's not seven five So when you have a frail when you have a frail body like that, it's definitely a little concerning But no, I just watched this kid play and just just see that don't see the potential injury and I think it'll be fine Well, if we get a repeat of the tim duncan times Right and it's the race for sace ladies and gentlemen Um, eddie, we don't care about your opinion. We're moving on. We're taking a break Sean with the scoop on the feel-good story of yesterday in the coaching world all of that one run it back returns Welcome back to run it back yesterday. It wasn't all sad and bad news in the coaching world the nba shams You had some good stuff to report Yeah, jack bond has agreed to a multi year extension at the three or four year deal With the brooklyn nets this comes after he was promoted to full-time head coach early in the year Um after taking over as interim head coach for steve gnash I mean just the way that he was able to turn around the net season Of course, it was derailed. Kyrie ring asked for a trade at least the departure of kevin durant as well So their season has been derailed. There's no question, but they brought in some new talent mckill bridges spencer denwoody Doreen finney smith Um, so they they brought some bodies there to try to turn this season Back into respectability. Um, and they still are in the playoff hunt in the eastern conference So you have to give it up the jack bond the culture. He's created there the accountability Um and everything that he's done from a communication standpoint to really turn around It's been night and day in brooklyn since he's taken over for steve gnash Yeah, they should name the street after him for everything that he had to put up with this entire season like eddie Seriously, this man is too good for this team the way things have gone down. Is he not I mean, he's dealt with a lot and not even just this year You remember shams remembers him coaching them into the playoffs in the bubble People wanted him to get the job then and then obviously that summer steve gnash got the job And and he got the head assistant job and was coaching the defense for them But he's he's coaching asleep before he's done a great job He's he's worked his way back to the big chair He deserves this job and when you listen to guys talk about the way he's connected with the team The way he's connected with the staff a staff he inherited He hasn't even put together his own bench over there Everybody loves him to a man. Everybody loves him and and he's a huge reason for their turnaround this year And he has a real opportunity now to build his own team put together his own his own offense His own defense his own staff and with some with a lot of young legs and and and that can be a scrappy team going forward And if they land that star, you know, if they put together all those picks And I know they had to use a star to get all those picks but put together all those picks and they get another A-level star that's a team to watch for going forward and and Jack is going to be the right guy. I think To to man the ship there I mean, they're definitely a likable team Very much so at this point Chandler. Does what do you think as far as peace is wise? Does he have enough? Is he like Eddie said, they need just that one big star? What are they missing? Well, I don't think they have enough right now But they're in a unique situation where they do have a bunch of talent and they did get a lot back And they got rid of pretty much all their issues and all their drama So for a head coach to get this job This is a dream because this is now job bonds team moving forward. He has his pieces He has bridges didn't we the klaxon cam johnson He has all these guys and they do have all these picks now Where they can put that together like eddie just said and go after and get, you know, a top 10 top 15 player to pair with all these pieces So jack bond deserves it the way he handled everything there that from replacing nash to all the drama and all the hoopla that's come with it I can't imagine him doing a better job. He basically had them on a roll before kairi asked for the trade He deserves it and he's shown and he's a player's coach everything. I know about him. I love the guy. He's a player friendly coach He's great with x's and o's and now he has this opportunity where he doesn't have to tank He doesn't really have to rebuild and he's got a lot of assets to better his team so Congrats to him and this is a this is a great job and obviously a great town and And I think he's got some some special things going on here And I'm glad that he can now finally be comfortable and has longevity and can build out his staff and Kind of start next season make a run this year, you know, it's going to be a tall task I mean obviously milwaukee and boston and philly even cleveland. I think are better teams in them this year But have a great summer and these this team will be a team to watch for next year And you never know what could happen. Um, look, there's a long list of dudes that are sort of floating out there right now Looking for spots to get on rosters before post season shams more movement more movement yesterday from orlando Yes, the orlando magic waved rj hampton This is the guy that was the first time pick a few years ago got traded to orlando in the erin gordon trade with denver Um, and so he was out of the rotation They were looking to trade him or wave him before the start of the year He ends up getting waved. He's had a pretty good year in the g league this year He's he's he's put up numbers when he's got opportunities as well But he will now become a free agent that the plan is for him to sign for the remainder of the season With the detroit pistons after he clears waiver. So he's off the board right now And several other players first done former number five overall pick He's signing with the with the utah jazz on a ten day contract frame jackson He's signing with the jazz on a ten day contract So you're gonna start to see some guys here sign ten days We have you know about a dozen teams plus with open roster spots Especially leading up after the trade deadline into march 1 march 1 is the buyout date deadline So all players have to be waved by march 1 to be playoff eligible for another team Well, there's some names on there. I'm waiting to hear about all right shams This is your friday for us anyways. Enjoy the rest of it safe travels back home and we will see you on monday You guys however That man has a family. It's the pre all start. Look, it's just a good excuse to show some awesome videos I'm embarrassing moments boom. John moran It's just another tease When was this He does he does the core would but he all the way back just all the stomach muscles. Just yes This is this just honestly It's it's annoying because we'll never see him in the dunk contest and But you know what he's such a good in-game dunker doing things like this I'm happy with just seeing him do things like this. I don't need him in the dunk contest anymore Well, no, he could be on the one of the one on one contest and then do that on one on one. I'll do that Yeah, yeah, I'd like him in the dunk contest. I'm sorry. I'm not giving up yet not yet jason tatum on jared allen All right little ur bigger Yeah, nice collection of posters for j.t. This year. This is in cross time too. And so Yeah, that's tough. That's a legit shot blocker Yo, he's dunked on everybody. He's got everybody Giannis lebron like he he's I love jason tatum's game game on the line seven seconds and you're going body to body with one of the best shot blockers Yeah, well remarketing This is a Euro crime right here. It really is you hate to see it Yo, you know, my big takeaway from the all-star game was he was at home He looked he looked like he deserved to be there. He fit in athletically. He was hitting shots He had a time of his life. He missed the game winner. He wasn't quite there But athletically and like he belonged and so Did you peep the he caught the the ally he missed it, but he like caught an ally you've been trying to win Me I was like since when does he? Bro, he had a couple nasty dunks in that game, but that was like I was That's shocking me. I was like, whoa So yeah, I like blurry it got caught up in the vibe. Aaron gordon This is this is from christmas. Just a happy happy christmas moment Those words just make sense. Aaron gordon on landry. We could I could guess how this one turned out right now. There was never a doubt on how this would end up I don't think not to be rude But Yo, the the agility did not land on landry right here. It's almost as impressive as the dunk He kept his shoot out the way like that was pretty that's pretty That was very caretious. He might just drop his nuts on his head That's like that's like fourth date. I don't know. I don't know what the kids are doing these days It's probably first date for all. I know who the heck knows Oh Shaden sharp did not get to see him but one that got away the one that just said no Mack McClung, Mack McClung better send him some of that money. He he had to be happy Put that hundred grand with my boy because he would have I think I swear he would have won that I don't know. I really I think Mack McClung Was such a Bizarre spectacle. I I think he still would have won Well, there'll be a day that one of these kids can do a flip and dunk or something I feel like we're I feel like we're getting closer in the contest or like Like it is so bouncy and so long. Damn it. Why don't I think somebody can somebody's doing it They're just not in the nba, which is why we have to open up the slam dunk contest now to like All of it Yeah, well, we're gonna open it even more now apparently Um, all right. Take it a quick break when we come back. Eddie and Chandler will separate the contenders from the pretenders and run it back Well, we only have about a couple dozen games left in the regular season the eastern conference standings as of right now Look exactly like what you're seeing on your screen right there. So it's time for a little you buy in that And we've talked six years Celtics bucks So we're just going to jump back down to cleveland chandler. Are you buying the calves as legit contenders in the eastern conference? Um, no, but I think they're the next closest thing. I do think they are young They're exciting. They have those two guards that can go off, you know, any game with garland and donovan mitchell They're missing some on the wing, but they do have I love deer down. I love them mobly. They have the pieces I just don't think they have the experience um But they're they're fun and they're in their team that I think could maybe take a run at one of those three power teams But kind of tender stuff, but you know, I'm a big jb bicker staff fan everything he's done there I just don't think they have enough to compete to those top three All right, not yet eddie Yeah, I mean, I I think channel is right in there the standing show exactly where they are They're just off that tier those top three teams But they have the best defense rating in the league and they have an isolation score Who's proving it both in the bubble and in the axle playoffs where they have fans and they have arenas and travel And donovan mitchell, they're dangerous and those top three teams should be incredibly worried about them that too big front With evid mobly and jared island that's going to cause issues for all three of the contenders above them So I wouldn't want to play them I wouldn't want to play them and if you're the Celtics and you get them in round two It gets a little scary of it just takes a couple great performances For those guys to be up in a series and who knows so i'm with channeler that they're just out of it But just barely Just barely and plus I like you never know what could happen Um, this is crazy. I I kind of love that. I'm about to ask about this team given the last many many many years But channeler we're about the nicks No, I don't see it again I think the the calves are the closest thing to it and I love jaylen brunson He's honestly probably one of my favorite point guards in the league and I think he's Probably the best offseason addition the way he's played. I think he got robbing an all-star. I just don't think they have enough I'm not sold on julius rando. I'm not sold on rj bear and uh, just Timbertoe's system is weird. I don't know who he's gonna play one day who he's not gonna play Again, I just I don't think they have enough offensively. I don't think they have enough shooting I can't help but think that i'm a Mitchell should be on the nicks instead of the calves But no, I love the jaylen brunson move. I think he is their best player But I think they're a star or two away from actually being a contender I know eddy can't wait for this one the nicks eddy They're not and and the reason that concerns me about them even when in a series is The playoff performances of julius rando and jaylen brunson in the past They've both had massive drop-offs from their regular season numbers Into the postseason and just struggled in general and then there's some people who wonder if Is that the reason jaylen brunson isn't a maverick right now, you know Why they wouldn't offer him the 55 million dollar contract that would have been a bargain Is where the mavericks just evaluating him as a playoff player I worry about them and then and then the tough shots those two have to get and have to make and play off basketball So yeah, they're they're a good tier two behind and look they've had a great season They have allowed to look forward to they have all their draft picks going forward. They're in a good spot They're just not a contender right now But it's kind of crazy that we're talking about them in that regard. Okay. Miami made a couple moves. They added kevin love Chandler, where are they in the contender world for you? This one's interesting to me now. This is a team that i'm scared of I like them more than the nets I like them more than nicks and I think their experience and the players they have I think they'd even give cleveland You know a run for their money. I love the experience. They have I love jimmy. I love bam They just added kevin love so they have a lot of shooting We know about streus and hero can really score the ball and this is what kyle lowery not having that great of a year Um, the heat are scary. They've been there before they're tough. They play defense. They move the ball They have one of the best coaches This is a team that I don't want to see are they a contender No, because again, we're talking about these teams because we're talking about Basically fourth through eighth, but this Team here is scary just because their experience and their toughness and they have many ways to hurt you I'm gonna call them a contender I mean they've been dealing with health issues all season and the miami just generally deal with health issues all season But we they were a shot away from the finals last year and they've pretty much improved since then They have all their flaws that they've they've had but they you know adding kevin love is a nice improvement Bam out of the bio has made such a leap that he's almost a completely different player I just talking to people around the heat this summer It's like he needs to be aggressive more aggressive offensively and he has and it's transformed that team You do not want to play this team in a series. This is a team that's been battle tested This is one of the best coaches in the league. They have a clear alpha leg in games and jimmy butler They have a ton of shooters around jimmy to make that work and you know, they defend I'm terrified of this team if i'm the bucks the south six or the sixers. So yeah, I think they're a contender Wow It's exciting god all the years where we already knew who was coming out of both conferences This is we have actual contenders that are not just one or two. I love this If you told me the heat when the east I'd be a little shocked but like not really like they're not crazy, right? Yeah, it's I love this so much. I love this season for that very reason. All right quick break here We've done the east when we come back. We'll attack the western conference and we'll put shaylor on the spot Is dallas actually a contender when run it back? We've learned a lot about the eastern conference now The west denver has been sort of chilling in that spot but everything below Moving around with potential to move around even more time to talk Well, let's just attack memphis first right right now sitting in the two spot. Chandler. Are you buying them as contenders? Yeah, I am just because they they're so explosive. John moran is unbelievable They've been kind of guys banged up all year long, but I like what they've done here They've kind of created this identity where they're tough. They're going to talk a lot of trash Um, they're fearless and I think with them again, we says a lot like ignorance is bliss with them They actually think they're the best team. They think they can play with anybody They kind of they try to bully the bullies like and this is kind of their culture that they're going for now And then when you look at their team, I love desmond bain. He can really shoot the ball jaren jackson first time all start probably going to be defensive play of the year They lock in they got guys like dillon brooks that can score and defend They can hurt you in a lot of different ways and and as good as the west is like we talked about this earlier There's no clear cut contender. And so, yeah, I think the grizzlies have a good chance As long as they're healthy, you know, and they stay locked in and they don't have any suspensions because they're trying to fight people I think they could be right there at the end of the at the end of the day That's crazy Eddie Yeah, it's I mean it's It's a funny question that To ask this of the tucie, but they're definitely a contender They they played the Warriors better than everybody last season and they were right there with them and and that ended being the champ So they're they're right there. They've improved Uh, I I think You know, look, they're simple. They're jammer. That's going to go left He's going to get in the paint and they're going to find open shots. They're going to do well They're going to play big or going to play small with jaren jackson and they defend and and chandler mentioned it He mentioned it perfectly. They have two-way guys and that's how you win playoffs. That's been bang Yeah, he's a great shooter and he's an offense player But he defends in the same thing for dylan brooks same thing for jaren jackson And and they're able to cover up whatever small holes that jammer has and Um, they're dangerous. They're one of the best teams out there. I'd take them over denver. You know what I mean? So if I'm taking them over the onesie, they're definitely contender Whoa, okay. I mean now I just want playoffs to start. All right. What about the surprising one of the surprising teams of the year Chandler sacramento Yeah, it's funny because it's eddie just said it's funny to ask if the second seat is a contender Which it is but now the third seat. I don't think it's a contender so The teams being banged up and listen the sacramento kings have had a great year They have really developed this roster. It was two stars, you know, two all stars They've surrounded them with shooting young athletic guys The energy is back in sacramento The story here is that they're they're getting into the playoffs and they're breaking this longest streak But when you look at the standings here sacramento, let's say they finish, you know, three or four I don't think they're beating the clippers the suns the mabs the warriors if they happen to line up against one of those teams I think they hope to god they get the pelicans or the timbre was something like that and then we have a series But when you look at these other teams, I just don't think the kings have enough against, you know 80 percent of those teams i'm looking at Okay, so the two is a contender we've already discussed the clippers and the suns as being potential contenders So we'll skip down to dalis now Are we buying dalis as a contender? Eddie you go first because I know what channel is going to say. I already know what channel is going to say I actually have the same concerns with them as I have with the king. They have a great offense But we know they're not going to defend. We just know for a fact They're not going to defend We watched that game against the timbre wolves and and and they went into overtime and they're They're playing the games of their lives and and they have to to be with the timbre wolves one point within the timbre And then they lost so it's it's I just don't think they can play playoff Worthy the defense certainly for the for the kings who have had the number one offense for pretty much the entire season We just know that they're not going to play Playoff defense, but it's funny that those teams are all jumbled up because the kings could just as easily fall into the plan But so could the mavericks and and we only have 24 25 games left And you would not be shocked that the mavericks lost a play in game to the pelicans to the healthy pelicans So this might be a one game and out team and then that's going to be a really long summer to reflect on With the moves they made and having to decide what they're going to do with kairi erving going forward Okay, chanelor take it away Yeah, are you sure cut contender like no, what are we talking about here? But I don't want to I don't want to play them and again when you look at luka donkage and kairi erving We're talking about quite possibly the greatest backcourt of all time if this pans out They settle down settle down Listen these these guys are elite on the offensive end eddie's right They have holes and they have a lot of holes, especially on the defensive end. I don't love their bigs But they have so much shooting They have so many ways that they can they can play switching defense where they can go small Actually cleaver coming back is going to help them a lot. But again, I don't think they're one of the top three or four teams but Let kairi erving and luka donkage kind of get that chemistry and hit their stride at the right time Not many people are guarding them. So they're going to score points. They're going to score 120 130 points Problem is they're probably going to give that up too. So I think moving forward after the break as long as they lock in defensively And you know find a way to commit to that They have a chance, but if not no these other teams are too deep and too good defensively and offensively Why you don't know what I love I well This is what I love the most about that little video that shows them having all the banter and like the love island affair That's going on is that when this is a disaster and it inevitably will be that that's going to be the video That they keep showing over and over again on all the highlight shows and it's going to be like a stamp like what went wrong Yeah, that's what i'm waiting for right because like There's just no way. I mean unless i'm wrong for the first time in my entire life There's no way this happens. This there's a can't work. They're they're a team with a lot of They made a big move with a big trade like Better work Yeah, it's one of the biggest. All right. This is our friday Which means we're just going to go rage for the rest of the week until monday and remember we're not an hour later So enjoy

What's going on everybody welcome back to another video. Today we're going to be starting our Power BI tutorial series. Now I am super excited to start this series with you guys. We're going to be breaking this up in about six or seven videos. I don't really like those super long videos where it's like four hours long. I like breaking mine up into chunks so that's what we're going to do. This is the beginner series and so we're going to start with the very basics and we're just going to work our way up and I'm going to walk you through every single step of the way. It'll be very easy to follow. Everything will be provided for you so that all you have to do is really follow along and by the end of it you should know Power BI a lot better and you should have a lot more confidence using it. Now before we actually jump on to my screen I want to give a huge shout to the sponsor of this video and that is Udemy. You guys know that I absolutely love Udemy. I've been using them for years and that is no exception when it comes to Power BI. I have taken some of the best Power BI courses ever on Udemy so I highly recommend you checking out the ones I have in the description. These are ones that I actually took and I loved the most. So if you're looking for a full Power BI course I highly recommend checking out Udemy. Thank you so much again to our sponsor and now without further ado let's jump on to my screen and get started with the tutorial. Alright so the first thing I'm going to do is download Power BI desktop. I believe this link in the description so you can just click on it. Go to it and download it. We're going to click this download free button and once we click it you can go to the Microsoft Store and I already have it downloaded so when you see it it'll already say downloaded but for you you can go in here. You can click download and it will download it for you. I'm on Microsoft but it may look a little bit different for you if you're on a different system but once that is done we are going to open up Power BI. So let's go right down here to our search. Let's go to Power BI and it is going to open up for us. Alright so right away this is what it's going to look like when you open it and we're going to go right over here to get data and let's click on that. It's going to open up this window and it's going to give us a lot of different options for where we can get data from. Now some of these are free and some you need to upgrade from but you're just taking a quick glance through here. You have a ton of options. There's databases, there's you know blob storages, there's PostgreSQL or different SQL databases, there's Google Analytics, there's a lot of places and you can go through the process to connect to that data and you can pull that data in from those data sources. Now for what we are doing we're just going to be using an Excel. I'm going to leave the Excel that I'm going to be using in the description. You can go and download it and walk through this with me. So what we're going to do is click on Excel Workbook and we're going to click connect. So we're going to go right here in our Power BI Tutorials folder and we're going to click on Apocalypse Food Prep. So let's click on that and it is going to connect and pull that data in. Now right here we have our Navigator and so if you had a lot of different sheets you can click on that and choose which ones to pull in. I just clicked on it right over here and we're able to preview the data but I can't load or transform it yet. I need to select which sheets I'm bringing in. So we only have ones that's the only one we're going to bring in. So you can go ahead and load the data or you can click on Transform Data and it's going to take us to Power BI, Power Query, which is going to allow us to transform our data. So I'm going to have an entire video on how to transform the data but I'm going to give you a really quick glance at it to kind of show you what it is. So right up here it says our Power Query Editor and this is the window to basically transform your data and get it ready for your visualizations. Now you can do this in Excel if you want to and do that beforehand or you can do it here and there are lots of things that we can do in here as you can see at the top. Again I'll have an entire video dedicated to just Power Query but let's take a quick look at the data and see if there's anything we want to transform quickly before we actually go and start building our visualizations. So over here we have the store where we purchased it, we have the product that we purchased, the price that we paid and the date that we bought it. Now the first thing that jumps out to me is that this just says date on it. We might want to say date underscore purchased and we're going to hit enter and if you noticed right over here on these applied steps it says renamed columns. Everything that you do, every single step that you apply to transform this data is going to be right over here and if I want to, if I go back and I say you know I really didn't want to rename that column I can just click X and it is going to get rid of that and take it back to its original state. So again I'm just going to say purchased and we're going to enter that. Now this is our apocalypse food prep. So this is food that we are buying for the apocalypse for this example and if we look at our products we have bottled water, canned vegetables, dried beans, milk and rice and all that stuff makes sense except for the milk. Milk will not stay or last long in the apocalypse so I think what we're going to do is we're going to filter that out really quickly and we're going to click okay and right over here again says filtered rose and so now if we scroll down there's no milk. So what we are going to do is we're going to go over here to close and apply and it is going to actually load the data into Power BI desktop. So on this left hand side it immediately takes us to the report tab and what we want to do is go right here to the data tab and take a look at our data. So again there's our date purchased and as you can see the milk is not in there. Another tab that we're going to take a look at and again in this report tab this is where we actually build our visualizations. The data is where we can see the data and change it up a little bit and change some small things about it like sorting the columns or even creating a new column and over here we have this other tab and it's called model and this is especially useful when you have multiple tables or multiple excels and you need to join them to kind of connect them together. We don't have that but in a future video I'm going to walk through how to use this entire tab. So now let's go back to the data tab and I want to just look at the data really quickly before we go over to the report tab and we start building our first visualization. As you can see I've been buying these different products in different months. So this rice I've been purchasing in January February March and April and I've been buying it from three different locations because I wanted to see if I was spending less money at one location on all of the products so then I would just shop there in the future and save a lot of money or if there were specific products that were really cheap at one location but others they were cheaper at a different location so I should just buy like the dried beans at Costco but everything else I should be buying at Walmart and so that's what we're going to look at in just a little bit so let's go over to the report tab right up here at the top there's this data section so you can kind of choose if you want to add any more data now that we are here we can also write queries or transform the data like we were looking at any power query editor window over here in the insert we can add a new visualization or a text box and then in the calculation section we can create a new measure or a quick measure and then over here we have share where you can actually publish your report or your dashboard online. Now over on the visualization section on this far right this is a very important area this is where a lot of the actual creating of the dashboards happen so let's take a look really quick and we'll get into a lot of these things as we're actually building our dashboard so we're not just sitting here looking and talking we're going to be actually building and doing all right so we're going to click right here on this drop down on sheet one that's going to show us all of our columns now two of the things that we wanted to look at were where are we spending the least amount of money buying the exact same product that will help us determine where we want to shop and the second thing was should I be buying all my products at the same place or are there certain products that they're going to be cheaper at a specific store and I should buy it there so let's start out with the first one which we're just going to see with the store and the price where we're spending the least amount of money and just at a quick glance we can see we're spending the least amount of money at Costco at $210 versus Target 219 and Walmart at 225 and that really answers our question but we want to visualize it better be able to see it in an easier way so we're going to go right over here and we can click on a lot of these but the one that probably makes the most sense is the stocked column chart and it's going to show what Walmart Target and Costco now they're all the same color let's add a legend so we're just going to drag store over here down to this legend and let's make this larger while we're working on it so now we can see we're spending the most amount of money at Walmart right in between at Target and then at Costco is the lowest and so right there we know that Costco is the place to go for our apocalypse food prep but is it going to be that way for every product I don't know let's take a look let's put this up in this corner and let's start a new one we're going to select the product for sure and the price and probably additionally the store as well and let's click on let's not do this one we need a clustered column chart that's what we need let's bring this over here let's expand this quite a bit and so really at a glance this is giving us everything that we need we can see each product right here and we can see how much we're paying per store and so for rice we're paying it looks like a lot more for our rice at Walmart's while at Target is actually where we are paying the least now if we look at all of these it looks like for Costco the only one that we're really paying a lot more on is on our rice but for our dried beans our bottled water we're paying quite a bit less and really it's pretty negligible for these canned vegetables we're paying maybe what 60 cents 50 60 cents more per can so that's pretty negligible but for the big ticket items we're really spending a lot less at Costco if we wanted to spend to save just a little bit more money we could go to Target for our rice now if I want to make this more like a dashboard and we're only keeping these two things I'm going to kind of size them kind of like this whoops I'm going to show you that in a little bit I'm going to size them a little bit like this so now that we have that looking good we want to change the title of both of these so what we're going to do is go over here in our visualizations and format your visual and we are going to go to this general go to title and now we can name it anything we really want for this we're going to say best store or product and while we're in here one other thing that I wanted to do is I want to go to this visual go right down here into these data labels now we haven't added any data labels so I'm going to click on you'll see exactly what it does it just puts the labels and the numbers above it so you don't actually like hover over it and see what it is now it is actually rounding these numbers so what we're going to do is go down here we're going to go down to values and we'll go down to display units and it's on auto so it's auto rounding those numbers and we're just going to say none so we can see the actual value of these numbers and we can do the exact same thing over here it probably is a good thing to do um and it just is going to visualize it a little bit differently in here but you can always change that if you want to go over here to title and we're going to say total by store and now we're going to take a look and so in a matter of minutes we were able to take our data from an excel put it into power bi transform it a little bit then we're able to create these visualizations that gave us concrete answers to some very important topics we now know that Costco is the place to go for basically every single product except if we're buying rice and if we want to save just a few dollars we're going to head over to target and that's genuinely going to change my shopping habits for the next several years until the apocalypse happens so in future videos we're going to dive into a lot of the things that we looked at today but just in more detail and then at the very end of this series we're going to have an entire project where we really use every single part of power bi and create a beautiful dashboard and so that's all we have for our very first video in our power bi series i

Hi and welcome to the session. Today we will learn to draw solids on a flat surface. We will learn to draw solid shapes on a flat surface, say a paper. For that we will use two techniques. First is drawing oblique sketches and second is drawing isometric sketches. Now when we draw the solid shapes on the paper the images are somewhat distorted so that they appear to be three dimensional. So first of all let us start with oblique sketches. An oblique sketch of a solid gives a clear idea of how a solid looks like. The lengths of the solid are not equal to the exact measurements but still we can recognize that solid. The sketch conveys the important aspects of the appearance of the solid. So let us try to draw an oblique sketch of a cube whose measurements are two units by two units by two units. That is each side of a cube is equal to two units. For this we will take a squared paper. So over here we will draw the cube. First of all let us draw the front face of the cube which will be like this. Now we will draw the opposite face of this cube which will be a square of the same size.  Now we will join all the corresponding corners to get the cube. So this is the required cube whose each side is two units. Here from this sketch it is very clear that all the lengths are not equal to the exact measurements. So to overcome this we will learn to draw an isometric sketch. So let us learn what are isometric sketches. In isometric sketches the lengths are equal to the exact measurements of the solid. To draw isometric sketches we use isometric dot sheets. Now let us understand what are isometric dot sheets. An isometric dot sheet is a sheet which divides the paper into small equilateral triangles made up of dots or lines. So let us draw an isometric sketch of a cube of measurements two units by two units by two units. So for this first of all we will draw the front face of the cube which will be a square of side two units. Now we will draw four line segments which will be parallel to each other starting from the four corners of the square of length two units. Like this now we will join the corresponding corners to get the required cube. Thus this is the required cube whose each side is of length two units. Thus in this session we have learnt to draw solids on a flat surface. With this we finished this session. Hope you must have understood all the concepts. Goodbye, take care and keep smiling.


We're talking about effective strategies to stay motivated at work here on the journey. It is money, you guys.  So we're gonna teach you some great ways to stay motivated at work and some surprising ways that you might be actually ruining your workday productivity. Starting with limit mobile notifications. I know I'm super guilty of it. I have my phone face up on my desk. So every time I get a notification, every time it rings, beeps, buzzes, whatever, I'm looking at my phone, distracted from my work, going to Instagram, going to the message, and not working, not being productive. Yeah, that can turn from minutes to hours. It's too easy whenever you get that notification, I go, I gotta stop what I'm doing. I can't pay attention to this anymore. I got a notification. And I gotta check the gram. Right, exactly, but really it's just a distraction from the work you actually have to do. So there are different things that we can do. With your phone, obviously you could hide your phone or download certain apps to actually make sure that you're using your time wisely. And it goes beyond just mobile notifications.  Yeah, and the tool that you use is just a Chrome extension called StayFocused. And it does exactly that. It helps you stay focused. So you can set a timer of cool I'm working for an hour. I wanna make sure I block all those distracting sites that I know I'm gonna eventually go to because I have the tabs open and whatnot. And what really helped me figure out where I was spending most of my time was this app called Rescue Time. What it does is it tracks everything you do on your computer but it keeps it basically top of mind of cool, you were on social media for four hours today. You were working for two, you were on this site for three hours, whatever that looks like. And you can really understand where all your time is going and start to eliminate some of those things where you probably shouldn't be using it as often. And number two is do less but do it more strategically. So this brings to mind Pareto's principle or the 80-20 rule. So basically this economist, Vilfredo Pareto, he a long time ago realized that 20% of the population owned 80% of Italy's land. So basically what that translates to is that 80% of the results that you're gonna get come from 20% of the actual work that you're doing. So basically focus on that 20%. That's what's gonna make a difference. Not all of your tasks have that same importance. Right, and I like to really help people understand and really figure out what that 20% is and just thinking of a graph. So on the left-hand side, we have importance or effectiveness. On the bottom, we have time. Then you're gonna basically put it into four different quadrants. So up here, we have high importance and effectiveness, low time. Basically you wanna find your sweet spot, all the items that fit there. You wanna do those first. On the bottom left, we have low time, but low importance or effectiveness. That's not really that important because it's not very effective. It's not important over the bottom. Right here, we have high time, low effectiveness and importance. So we really don't wanna touch that at all. And then top right, high time, high importance and effectiveness. We wanna really make sure that the items there, they're gonna take a lot of times we have to section that out. But that sweet spot is high importance, high effectiveness, but low time. Get those done first. Make sure that that's a part of that 20%. Yeah, something that really helps me is if it's a task that you can take care of in two minutes or less, do it right then. If not, then put it on your to-do list and knock it out later. And our third strategy is schedule less time than necessary.  Yeah, sure. It's basically saying I don't like to work. But no, so schedule less time than necessary. I know with meetings, I like this a lot instead of going the full 30 minutes. I'll schedule a 15 minutes so we get all that content in. Same goes with your tasks, right? Parkinson's Law, I talk about it a lot, but basically it means however much time you give yourself to complete a task, whether it's an hour or a week, whatever that might be, that's how long it's going to take you. So if you set aside time to do whatever task that you would have done in an hour, schedule for 30 minutes, you'll be surprised that you'll actually get it done and now have 30 minutes go do whatever you want, like nap. And that leads us to our next point. Yeah, leave time for naps. I wish, but no. It is schedule your unscheduled time. So it's really important to make sure that you're setting aside that time to deal with all those notifications or any unexpected things, because if you don't set aside that time, then all of a sudden your entire day's schedule is just gonna be thrown in the garbage. Right, you'll have meetings back to back to back with no breathing room, telling everyone I have a hard stop at 11, 30 except to go to another meeting and I have a hard stop at 12 and you don't even get to eat lunch. It's happened too often. Make sure you schedule that unscheduled time and put yourself as busy. That time is yours to just reset, reflect on whatever's coming next. Give yourself that needed time. Yeah, you're gonna wanna at least leave about one third of your day as unscheduled because those notifications, all those unexpected tasks take up a lot of time. So leave about one third of your day and that way it gives your brain that time to really reset, recharge and be able to focus on the other tasks really more efficiently. Now moving on to our next strategy is procrastinate productively.  Do something that's productive to another portion of your life. Yeah, this is actually my favorite one because I am really bad about procrastinating. So this helps me because if I have a really monotonous task that I need to do and I'm sitting there just dreading it, I will tell myself, okay, you have five minutes to procrastinate if you go and do the dishes. So all of a sudden my options are, okay, you can either do this task or you can go do the dishes. And so if I really, really want to procrastinate, then at least I'm doing the dishes as well. And you don't have to do them later. Number six is a fun one, it's gamify it. So I know I'm really competitive, so turn something into a fun task like setting a timer for 10 to 20 minutes. Challenge yourself to get that task done in that 20 minutes.  So when I'm building out a website or doing whatever task, I'll set that timer for 45 minutes an hour. Then when I'm done with that, I go and play Xbox for like 10 minutes just to reset. That's my little gamification reward I have there. But that timer, it's really helped me to like, cool, I gotta get this task done in that hour. Being a little competitive with myself goes a long way. Yeah, we actually have a video right over here about the Pomodoro technique, which is a really great way that you can use a timer to make yourself more efficient. The next strategy we have for you is to limit decision-making. Sometimes making decisions all day is hard. There's actually a term for that called decision fatigue. So the more options and choices and decisions that you have to make all day, the less productive you're actually gonna end up being.  So a really great example of this is Steve Jobs. So everyone knows that he wore that same black turtleneck all the time. The reason he did that, because it was one less decision he had to make every single day, that way he could spend more of his time and energy actually focusing on his business, rather than focusing on what should I wear. Time to update my wardrobe. Our next strategy, if you're having a hard time staying motivated, is to change your surroundings. It's amazing how just going to a different environment can really change your effort and re-energize you. Yeah, absolutely. Where are some of the places that you like to go to re-energize yourself? So it really depends on your personality and what works best for you. I know for me, if I need to focus, I need to be somewhere that's a lot more quiet. So I could go to like a coffee shop and get more caffeine while I'm at it. But some people, you know, they need to go to a more energetic environment. It really just depends on your style. Yeah, I know I like to go to a different co-working spaces just because there's so many people just like me kind of that collaborative effort helps me like get my energy going or I just see other people like just crushing and working like the competitiveness of me is like cool, I need to do better than them. So it helps me work. Or there's always a library to go and have that free option and that's super, super quiet. Yeah, there's a great co-working place in Austin that actually allows you to bring your dogs. So not only, you know, are you able to work there, but there's dogs everywhere. So it's like heaven. So those are our effective strategies to stay motivated at work. Make sure you like this video, add a comment below and subscribe to our channel.
