A little while ago, Joey randomly thought about losing a close basketball game in high school after he hit a game-tying shot. That triggered a drastic ice hockey sad story from Sean. And, of course, there are plenty of pro sports moments that don’t turn out the way we want.

These events happened so long ago! Why do disappointing sports memories from the past routinely haunt our dreams?

Plus, a look at the opposing teams that have made Sean cry over the years. Bring the tissues for this one!

The Atlanta Hawks made the play-in tournament this season and looked like a team that was trying for most of the season. They only had a 3% chance of scoring the top pick in the NBA Draft lottery, and then they ended up winning it! Meanwhile, teams that tried to lose to better their odds fell out of the top slots. You love to see it.

Plus, memorable moments around the NBA Draft, this Zach Lowe piece explains how the lottery works better than Joey can, and this SB Nation article from a decade ago is a fantastic look at what would happen if the NBA lost all of its talent.

Basketball discourse is so weird. There are constant player comparisons, far too many discussions around legacy, and absurd lists that make no sense. It often turns into lazy discussion that makes for a frustrating experience.

Plus, Joey has a disappointing trip to the dentist and a quick nod to Bruins broadcaster Jack Edwards' wonderful maniacal laugh.
