00:00 Yeah, I was part of the appeals process on behalf of Kareem,

00:04 and, you know, I'm obviously glad it was reduced.

00:08 And, you know, it is what it is. And so,

00:12 you know, we'll be without him for two games and

00:16 then, you know, he'll be back.

00:20 What, you're part of the process then? Are you just like, you make a reference type thing?

00:24 No, it's just, yeah, I mean, it's a, you know, an hour meeting on Zoom.

01:48 during the draft, you know, there's certain things you look at right away and
