Speaker 3: got the games. We will get to Curry dropping fifty,

29
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 3: Jokic turn it into a temper boy, and whether or

30
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 3: not he'll get suspended for all that other games that

31
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 3: were really entertaining last night. But let's start with a

32
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 3: big trade rumor tasks. According to Shams, the Boston Celtics

33
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 3: have engaged in Ben Simmons conversations with the seventy six. Now,

34
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 3: let's not get too excited. Shaums says talks have been

35
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 3: fluid with no traction as of yet. Word is though,

36
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 3: that any potential Simmons deal with the Celtics would have

37
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 3: to include Jalen Brown, who unfortunately right now is going

38
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 3: to miss one or two weeks of action here with

39
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 3: a right hand string string. The question, though, tesk, let's

40
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 3: get into the trade rumor. Is Jalen Brown too high

41
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 3: a price for Ben Simmons? Would the Celtics include him

42
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 3: in any deal for Ben Simmons.

43
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 4: What do you think, No, they would not. Jalen Brown

44
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 4: is a star, so I understand why. Unlike you driving

45
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 4: your car, there's no Chevy traction here, skeets, it's not happening.

46
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 4: He is too good offensively. He is just a star.

47
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 4: He is growing into a two way player. But I

48
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 4: can see why the Celtics would want to shake up

49
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 4: their own roster because they've got Jalen Brown, they've got

50
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 4: Jason Tatum to all stars. But they're only four and six.

51
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,399
Speaker 4: They need something, and I can understand why they would

52
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 4: love Simmons on their roster at point guard. Who doesn't

53
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 4: need a shot. Marcus Smart was just saying, Jason Tatum

54
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 4: and Jaalen Brown take all our shots. Ben Simmons would

55
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 4: be great at that. But he would also be very,

56
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 4: very helpful on the defensive end because they've lacked mph defensively,

57
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 4: and I think people are diminishing how good Simmons is

58
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 4: on the defensive end because the seventy six ers have

59
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 4: improved on offense without him, and everybody's saying, oh, look,

60
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 4: they've got the floor spaced out, they've got shooters around

61
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 4: Joel Embiid. It's true, they've got the first best offense,

62
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 4: best three point percentage, mainly because they're all spread out

63
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 4: and they're not just taking a few threes. They're taking

64
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 4: more threes this year, but they have sacrificed something defensively.

65
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 4: They've gone from thirteenth to first on offense from last

66
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 4: year to this year, but from second to nineteenth on defense,

67
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 4: and that's a big reason why the Celtics are looking

68
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 4: at Ben Simmons and thinking that would be juicy as

69
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 4: a point of attack defender we're lacking. If you watch

70
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 4: them play, teams can just sort of stroll into the lane,

71
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 4: but they're coming around defensively. So I think this is

72
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 4: sort of a bad time for Simmons to see that

73
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 4: Sean Shriana rumor and say, whoah, maybe the Celtics will

74
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 4: trade for me. But I think the Celtics are looking

75
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 4: at their own roster and they're thinking, well, Marcus mart

76
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 4: Josh Richardson, even Dennis Shrewder. The guards are starting to

77
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 4: hound the other guards on the opposing team. They held

78
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 4: the Magic to seventy nine points and then the Heat

79
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 4: to seventy eight points in back to back games, and

80
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 4: then they fought back from a nineteen point fIF sit

81
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 4: to nearly take out the mass before there was a

82
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 4: huge brain fart by Marcus Smart taking that foul, and

83
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 4: then Luca hit him in the eye. They're coming around, skeets.

84
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 4: I think that prediction that we made earlier this season

85
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 4: that the Celtics would be better. I know they're only

86
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 4: four and six, but I think it's just taking them

87
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 4: a little bit of time. And I don't think they

88
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 4: would rock the boat and trade Jalen Brown no way

89
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 4: with the way that they are coming around. And I

90
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 4: think if Jalen Brown was traded for Ben Simmons, that

91
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 4: would hit him right in the heart because a few

92
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 4: years back, there's this clip circulating. I'd forgotten about it,

93
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 4: but his teammate Grant Williams started his career missing his

94
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 4: first twenty five to three pointers, and Jalen Brown told media, Yeah,

95
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 4: we were calling Grant Williams Ben Simmons for a while.

96
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 4: That's deep. Tell me, like, that's a few years ago.

97
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 4: It's a young Jalen Brown. Everybody just sticks it to

98
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 4: Ben Simmons for not being able to shoot a three pointer,

99
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 4: but it is. It is a weird sort of mix

100
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 4: that they've got going on in Boston. That they're only

101
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 4: four and six with two All Stars with two stars,

102
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 4: but I think they're finding it. And Ben Simmons I

103
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 4: think would really help defensively, and he would help the

104
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 4: Philadelphia seventy six ers. I think the Sixers with Ben

105
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 4: Simmons and him being, you know, the best version of himself,

106
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 4: I think are a championship contender. But without him, even

107
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 4: if they're playing with the best offense right now, I

108
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 4: don't think they're a championship contender. I think he takes

109
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 4: their defense to a level that they can't reach without him,

110
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,280
Speaker 4: although their offense is better. So I think people are

111
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 4: forgetting how good a factor Ben Simmons could be on

112
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,559
Speaker 4: the right squad, and I think he would fit pretty

113
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 4: well with those shooters on Boston.

114
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't think it's a surprise tray that Darryl

115
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 3: Morey would like Jalen Brown coming back in a Ben

116
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 3: Simmons deal. But again, the question is is there any

117
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 3: way the Celtics would include Jalen Brown, Because by all

118
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 3: reports this is ludicris Chris Mannock saying no way, Mass lives,

119
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 3: Brian Robbs saying no way, Like it's a non starter

120
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 3: that Jalen Brown now, is there another deal in play?

121
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 3: Do you have to get a third team involved? Yeah, okay,

122
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 3: I'm sure the Celtics would want Simmons on their team,

123
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 3: but to pair with Tatum and Brown, not to maybe

124
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 3: include them. Do you agree with that.

125
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: One hundred percent? Simmons would be awesome on the Celtics

126
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: If Jalen Brown and Jason Tatum are both there, that's

127
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: a wicked threesome. All about the same size, can do

128
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: a lot of the same things. But I don't think

129
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: the Celtics should give up Jalen Brown. Both Jalen and

130
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons two way players. They play offense and defense.

131
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: That's what a two way player means if you didn't know.

132
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: But there's a major hole in Ben Simmons game, which

133
00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: hasn't improved. Meanwhile, Jalen Brown gets better every single season

134
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: and he hasn't made a leap really as a playmaker yet,

135
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 1: but that's still to come sometime in his career. It

136
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: just doesn't make sense to me. Jalen Brown would fit

137
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: perfect with the Sixers. I don't necessarily know that they

138
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: solve all of their issues with regards to passing, but

139
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: he would certainly be an improvement over having no Ben

140
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: Simmons there, and like you're saying, Skeet Simmons fits perfect

141
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: with the Celtics. But it feels like they're just taking

142
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: a step sideways by acquiring Simmons. If they're trading away

143
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: Jalen Brown, doesn't make sense to me unless they're somehow

144
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: a third team involved here.

145
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 3: Okay, Lee, let's play this out. Darryl calls up Brad Stevens,

146
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 3: who's calling the shots now they're for Boston, it's not

147
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 3: Danny h And he says, Hey, Brad, congrats on the promotion.

148
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 3: It's fantastic. Nice to have you part of the club

149
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 3: here as a GM. You're a great coach. I think

150
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 3: you're gonna make a better GM. So look, i've got

151
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 3: Simmons here. I'm trying to get a trade happening. He's

152
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,119
Speaker 3: probably not gonna play for us. Let's make something happen.

153
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 3: You know, you know, I know you as an organization,

154
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 3: you're not afraid to aid like a star player to

155
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 3: another team. You know we've seen them do that before,

156
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 3: even in their conference. Jellen Brown for Ben Simmons, Let's

157
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 3: do this. What do you say, Brat, come on, let's go.

158
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 5: What do you say, I say, sold, why not let's

159
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 5: do it. No, of course, not the Celtics. There's no

160
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 5: way they would do this deal at all because Jalen

161
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 5: Brown defensively is a very very good player, maybe not

162
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 5: quite at Ben Simmons level, but he's not far off either.

163
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 5: And then offensively, he's a different player than Ben Simmons,

164
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 5: but he's a much better shooter and score of the ball.

165
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 5: That's obviously the difference there. Ben Simmons more a playmaker facilitator.

166
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 5: But I just don't think that Celtics look at this

167
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 5: and think this really improves them. It's like, for like

168
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 5: in a way that they get another good player in return,

169
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 5: but they simply don't get the shooting and the flaw

170
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 5: spacing that Jalen Brown gives them. I was looking into

171
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 5: the Celtics roster because it feels like still they had

172
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 5: all those draft picks from the Danny Ainge era. But

173
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 5: he must have just like emptied the cupboard as he

174
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 5: left the door there, because they don't have really any

175
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 5: significant draft to give up here either. That might entice

176
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 5: Darryl Maury they've given up, but you know, they gave

177
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 5: up a first round pick to get Kemball Walker from

178
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,559
Speaker 5: the Thunder there, and now all they have is their

179
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,439
Speaker 5: own picks, so none of those are sort of super enticing.

180
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 5: Remember it felt like Danny Ainge had multiple first round

181
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 5: picks for multiple drusts, But they don't really have that anymore,

182
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 5: so they can't even sort of say, okay, you know,

183
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,319
Speaker 5: we'll give up extra picks down the line. So it's

184
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 5: not going to happen there anyway. But look, if you're

185
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 5: the Philadelphia seventy sixers and you you know a player

186
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 5: like Jalen Brown is available, of course you make that move.

187
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 5: But there's just not that many players of that caliber

188
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 5: out there. I certainly don't see teams giving up a

189
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 5: player of Jaylen Brown's quality to get someone like Ben Simmons,

190
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 5: who's shown right now that you know who knows when

191
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,439
Speaker 5: he's going to be back playing anyway, that's the real

192
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 5: question here for anything surrounding Ben Simmons. And one thing

193
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 5: for Ben Simmons too. If he thinks it was tough

194
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 5: playing in Philadelphia, you don't want to go to Boston

195
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 5: and play there and have the crowd against you as well.

196
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 5: That'd be an even tougher place, I think than Philadelphia.

197
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 3: I think a lot of people pointing out with Jalen

198
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 3: Brown too, it's, you know, he is under team control

199
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 3: for two more seasons at a very very good deal,

200
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 3: possibly below market deal with the you know what, the

201
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 3: sort of he's producing for the Celtics over these last

202
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 3: couple of years, turning into an All Star, being still

203
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 3: a twenty five point per game score and all that,

204
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 3: and like you guys said, doing it on both ends.

205
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 3: So yeah, I don't see him being involved in any

206
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 3: sort of Simmons deal six or Celtics. But you know, Lee,

207
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 3: is there something if Jalen is off the table? Is

208
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 3: there anything that the Celtics could realistically offer in a

209
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 3: deal to get Ben Simmons to join a Tatum and Brown?

210
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 3: Do you have to get a third team involved? Have

211
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:40,439
Speaker 3: you worked the trade?

212
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 2: I've tried to. And that's the thing.

213
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 5: You absolutely have to get a third team involved, because

214
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 5: the best player realistically that the Sixers would want would

215
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 5: be Marcus smartt And you're not just going to give

216
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 5: up straight up one for one. That's what I was

217
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 5: talking about. The draft picks that the Celtics don't have

218
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:55,719
Speaker 5: to say, all right, we'll give you Smart and then

219
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 5: a Josh Richardson and then three first round picks that

220
00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 5: just they just don't have that to give up anymore.

221
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 5: And you're not going to take back Al Horford. His

222
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 5: time there in Philadelphia was a disaster anyway, And of

223
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 5: course at this stage of his career, you know, he's

224
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 5: at the end of his career. So after that Shrewder,

225
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 5: I don't even think he can be traded right now.

226
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 5: Maybe in the next month or so when, you know,

227
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 5: because he's on a one year deal there. Robert Williams,

228
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 5: you know, sure, Grant Williams, those guys are nice, but

229
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 5: there's just nothing there for Daryl Morey that he's like, Okay,

230
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 5: if I don't have Jalen Brown, you can just throw

231
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 5: some of these other players at me, because there's just

232
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 5: not enough there. I think again, I sort of talked

233
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 5: about it yesterday. If the Indiana Paces have decided that

234
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 5: Miles Turner is not a part of the future, then

235
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 5: then you can maybe get the wheels moving a little bit.

236
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 5: But that's pure speculation on my behalf. I have no

237
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 5: idea if the Paces are willing to give up. It

238
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 5: just feels though that like maybe the Pacers need to

239
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 5: shake things up as well after a bit of a

240
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 5: rough start for them.

241
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is important to note when you're trying to

242
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 3: come up with trades right now, like rate the second

243
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 3: that a number of players around the league, they're not

244
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 3: eligible to be traded until mid December for free agents

245
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,559
Speaker 3: that's signed in the off season, or until mid January

246
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 3: when many players who signed like veteran extent who I

247
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 3: believe Marcus Smart being one of those. So you know,

248
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 3: even if he's involved in a deal to the Sixers

249
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 3: or a three team deal, this isn't happening until mid

250
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 3: to late July or whatever the heck. It is task,

251
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 3: But you know, can you come up with something? Is

252
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 3: there anything a third team? Especially is it the Pacers?

253
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 3: Is it another squad where okay, you could see Celtics

254
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 3: sending a package of players and their own picks maybe

255
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 3: to that team to then get Simmons to them, and

256
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 3: of course Jalen Brown going to Philadelphia. Is there anything

257
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 3: that you could work or figure out?

258
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 4: Well, I think you need two parts to make this work.

259
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 4: You need a team that's willing to take a risk.

260
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 4: That team that unlike the Boston Selexs, who are playing

261
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 4: a little bit better, a team that's just struggling just

262
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 4: a little bit and are willing to say, yeah, Ben Simmons,

263
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 4: why not? Why not? And the second thing is I

264
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 4: think Philly has to get Yeah, if it's a three

265
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 4: team and Jalen Brown comes around or some sort of

266
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 4: on the ball, defend that, like Ben Simmons would you know,

267
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 4: sort of replicate Like the Malcolm Brognen thing from Indiana

268
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 4: made sense, although he signed an extension, so he's off

269
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 4: the table. I think what you threw out there with

270
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 4: the Kings there on Twitter, they got people riled up,

271
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 4: but it fits the Bill. King's willing to take a risk.

272
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 4: The things aren't flying all that well. They've got replacements

273
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 4: over there with Tyres Alberton and Davion Mitchell. So maybe

274
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 4: Darren Fox gets out of there. I don't think that's happening.

275
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 4: But but but but there just isn't a really good

276
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,319
Speaker 4: one out there. So that's why I bring it up.

277
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 4: Is there a better one than that where the Kings

278
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 4: and the Celtics find a way to you know, trade

279
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 4: those best pieces that I mean, the Sixers, They're not

280
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 4: gonna end up with Jalen Brown. They're gonna end up

281
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 4: with something not as good. And I know, I know

282
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 4: Marcus Smart as obviously not the player Jalen Brown is,

283
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:59,559
Speaker 4: but at this point, it's not a horrible consolation package.

284
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 4: It's not terrible. I know it's not ideal, but he

285
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 4: kind of fits the bill of an on ball defender

286
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 4: who can handle the ball. Yeah, I mean, it's it's

287
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 4: tough slider right now. If you're Darryl Moore, it's just

288
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 4: the value obviously could not be lower. But but don't

289
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 4: the Kings make a little bit of a logical sense.

290
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 3: Then I'll throw it out for those that didn't catch

291
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 3: my tweet last night that did riled up the Sacramento

292
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 3: of the Kings fans fair enough. Yeah, the third team

293
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 3: that I was like searching for, Maybe it's Sacramento, who

294
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 3: will be fifteen games below five hundred, because they always

295
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 3: are come January, when you could trade Marcus Smart and

296
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 3: there's some sort of smart Robert Williams, maybe niece Smith, like,

297
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 3: you know, a young talented Celtics picks would be included

298
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 3: to then have Fox go to the Sixers and Simmons

299
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 3: go to the Celtics. That would be the third team involved.

300
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 3: I get it, Trey, It's not that exciting if I'm

301
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 3: a Kings fan, like I read that tweet and I

302
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 3: go fuck off, Like I love their Fox. Everybody knows

303
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 3: that watches the show. I love the er Fox probably

304
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 3: more than anyone, and I know he's even struggling right now.

305
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 3: My point is, you know, if the pick capital was better,

306
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 3: and that goes back to what you were saying, Lee,

307
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 3: I could see it. I could see maybe it happening.

308
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 3: But with what they could offer right now in terms

309
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 3: of picks and then these players that I just mentioned,

310
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 3: it's not all that exciting. I get it from from

311
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 3: the King side of things. Why they're like, why would

312
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 3: we get involved in this? But trade? Do you have

313
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 3: any thoughts or maybe a better one even.

314
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: No, I definitely don't have any better ones skeets, because

315
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: once it goes to a three team trade, I refuse

316
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: to operate the trade machine at that point because it's

317
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: hard enough to get a three team trade done in

318
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: the NBA to actually get three people to agree. It's

319
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: not just one creep sitting alone in the basement trying

320
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: to figure out trades here. So I don't know, if

321
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 1: you're the Kings, maybe you can talk yourself into it,

322
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: because You've got a ton of point guards right now,

323
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: having drafted Halliburton and Mitchell in the past couple of drafts.

324
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: You bring in Ben Simmons, another theoretical point guard, but

325
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: at least these taller so I guess that makes some sense.

326
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: But the problem with the Celtics is they have two

327
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: difference makers, and that's what Daryl Morey has said. They

328
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: got Jason Tatum and they got Jalen Brown. It doesn't

329
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: like they're going to trade one of those straight up

330
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: to the Sixers. So then you gotta start looking at

331
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 1: these three teamers. And yeah, I mean sure, Dearon Fox

332
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: going to the Sixers would be awesome for the Sixers,

333
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: but I don't know. The Kings just signed into an

334
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: extension and now they want to move on already. I mean,

335
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 1: maybe so, but I don't think Simmons is that big

336
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: of an upgrade over de Aaron Fox.

337
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's very, very difficult to find one that makes

338
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 3: a lot of sense. But maybe if the Sixers continue

339
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 3: to keep winning. Here, Lee, you know, Maury just buys

340
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 3: himself some more time. You're not felt as rushed now.

341
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 3: He said he could do of all four years of this,

342
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 3: you know, stand still here with Ben Simmons. I don't

343
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 3: believe that. I don't think anybody does. But you know,

344
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 3: if they're at the top of the Eastern Conference, you

345
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 3: don't really need to panic and say, God, we got

346
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 3: to get some players in here, even though Ben Simm's

347
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 3: not playing, though they're short on guys, so let's just

348
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 3: get let's just sort of spin to that. And then

349
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 3: last night's game against the Knicks because we learned that

350
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 3: Joel Embiid has returned to positive tests for COVID nineteen.

351
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 3: This happened on Monday morning. He was already expected to

352
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 3: sit out last night's game, but now he's gonna miss

353
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 3: probably ten days per the NBA's health and safety protocols,

354
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 3: that would mean Embiid's gonna miss at least five games.

355
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 3: Potentially returns at some point late next week. But they

356
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 3: are just getting ravaged right now. The Sixers are with

357
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 3: guys entering the league's protocols so far the season, Tobias Harris, Matisse, Stibel, Embiid,

358
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 3: now Isaiah Joe also in the mix. Here, Where did

359
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 3: you come from? Isaiah Joe? So yeah, I don't know

360
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 3: what even this Embiid news has on all of this

361
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 3: trade talk, Trey, I don't know if it ramps it

362
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,639
Speaker 3: up more if there's still no rush, any thoughts on that.

363
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 1: Well, that's why I thought Embiid was under a ton

364
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: of pressure this year, because anytime he misses games, there's

365
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: not that next player to step in and be the

366
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 1: number one guy, especially in the situation the Sixers find

367
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 1: themselves in now where Simmons is out and Tobias Harris

368
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 1: is also missing time as well. You saw last night

369
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 1: against the Knick they looked shorthanded, you know, waiting for

370
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: step or Seth Curry to make plays off the dribble,

371
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: Tyrese Maxie. They've both been pretty solid to start the season,

372
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 1: but when they're thrust into the number one role, that's

373
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: a big lift for players who are generally support players

374
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 1: in the starting lineup. But the good thing about last night,

375
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,640
Speaker 1: no Joel Embiid met Andre Drummond got some serious run there,

376
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:27,159
Speaker 1: Skeetzy jd roll that beautiful beef footage.

377
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 6: Andre Drummond had twenty five rebounds. Welcome back, you big

378
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 6: beautiful beef. That's a lot of roast beef, which is rebounds.

379
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, ten months between beefs for Andre Drummond. He

380
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: was our original Beefer along with Demonte Sabonis. Twenty five rebounds,

381
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: most rebounds in a game thus far this season, also

382
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: the first time that the Sixers have had twenty five

383
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 1: or more rebounds in a game since nineteen eighty seven,

384
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 1: when the round mound of beef himself, Charles Barkley put

385
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: up twenty five and a loss to the Bulls, where

386
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan had fifty six. If we had a show

387
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 1: thirty four years ago, I think we would have led

388
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 1: with that one, a twenty five board game in a

389
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: fifty six point game. As for the rest of this

390
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 1: obviously no Embiid, no Harris, no Simmons, all the other

391
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,959
Speaker 1: guys you mentioned, skeets, even Isaiah Joe and the Knicks

392
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: handled their business. They had a big lead in the

393
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,239
Speaker 1: first half. Sixers did a good job to make it

394
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: close in the second half. They got it to within

395
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,239
Speaker 1: one point a couple of times in the third and

396
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, but then with five minutes left as a

397
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 1: five point Knicks lead, and Julius Randall check back in

398
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 1: and he put the team on his back. Scored ten

399
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: points on four or five shooting down the stretch, had

400
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: eight straight. At one point had George saying, nang it

401
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: the way he was taking him to the hole off

402
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 1: the dribble, there popped a three in his face as well.

403
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 1: Then they tried Danny Green two small three in his face,

404
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 1: and then Tyre's Max he got switched on to Julius Randall,

405
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: so he took him down, grabbed the big offensive rebound,

406
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 1: put it back in. That was really the back breaker.

407
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: He finished with thirty one and twelve. It was the

408
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 1: full bing bong and a big Knicks bingbong.

409
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I thought this was gonna be like

410
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 3: a thirty point blowout task because they were up huge,

411
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 3: like Trey said, I think up nineteen in the first half,

412
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,120
Speaker 3: and Philly did go on a pretty dam impressive run

413
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 3: in the third quarter. It kept me watching as we

414
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 3: entered the final frame. Hell, didn't Niang Gang bang a

415
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 3: three there with like five minutes to down. It was

416
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 3: a one point game, and I was like Jesus, this

417
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 3: would be an incredible Sixers win and a brutal Nicks loss.

418
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 3: But as Trey said, Randall took over there late, and

419
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 3: when he's got when you can add the three point

420
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 3: shot to what we know he can sort of do

421
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 3: inside and from mid range. Then he's a really really

422
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 3: dangerous player.

423
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 4: I think this is a wild sixers team that they

424
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,400
Speaker 4: were able to fight short on bodies. They're missing their

425
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 4: top three players and Tobias Harris, Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons,

426
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 4: and they still are able to go deep on that

427
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,919
Speaker 4: roster and figure out away. Doc Rivers is doing it.

428
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 4: He is a Coach of the Year candidate, no doubt.

429
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 4: But yeah, the Niang Gang fighting through Isaiah Joe not

430
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 4: playing in this one. Unfortunately, they just got great names

431
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 4: on this roster. It goes pretty deep. You mentioned that

432
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 4: the Cotton Eye Joe. It's I don't know why they

433
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 4: haven't run with that. The fact that he comes in,

434
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 4: he comes in and they asked him if he's broken protocol,

435
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 4: They should just say, oh, where did you come from?

436
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 4: Where did you go? I want to know Cotton Eye Joe.

437
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 4: I mean, I want to know, Isaiah Joe, where have

438
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,479
Speaker 4: you been? And so everybody it ravis him this year,

439
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 4: raves him. Last year. If you remember Steth Curry went

440
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 4: through it. A lot of guys have gone through it.

441
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,679
Speaker 4: The fact that they're keep winning against their fighting. This

442
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 4: was a game that the Knicks won, and there wasn't

443
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 4: a game that the Sixers lost. The Sixers are just fighting.

444
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 4: But tough part is the schedule is so tough that

445
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 4: they're going up against now, especially with Joel and beat out.

446
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 4: So yeah, they've started the season off incredibly well. But

447
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 4: now now, now, now after the seat and three starters,

448
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 4: where things will get very real. But Doc River's much

449
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 4: respect to him and the way he's got them fighting.

450
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, a Lee, anything from this game last night, the

451
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 5: New York Knicks just look happier playing on the road

452
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,359
Speaker 5: right now. This season they're five and one, they're two

453
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 5: and three at home, and Julius Randall, even though he's

454
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 5: actual scoring is higher in Madison Square Garden, on the road,

455
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 5: he just shoots better and I think he passes better.

456
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,959
Speaker 5: I think there's the pressure of now playing in Madison

457
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 5: Square Garden. The fans are expecting something. I mean, it's

458
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 5: completely unscientific at this point, but I am monitoring it

459
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 5: through the season because they've lost a couple of stinkers

460
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 5: at home, and I think that does affect them. They

461
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 5: just look looser on the road. So I'll keep tracking

462
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 5: this as the season goes on, and if it works

463
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 5: in my favor. I'll keep reminding people. If it doesn't,

464
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 5: I'll completely ignore it. But five and one on the

465
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 5: road right now for the Knicks, that's pretty impressive.

466
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. Unfortunately for next fans, Nerlin's Noel had to leave

467
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,199
Speaker 3: this one with a knee injury. I think it was

468
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 3: Danny Green falling into there, buckling his knee, and this

469
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 3: guy just can't he can't catch a break. Nelin's know, well,

470
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 3: I mean he missed a all of preseason, mister, good

471
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 3: start of this season. I think he first seven games

472
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 3: finally got back, you know, getting into the rotation, finding

473
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 3: some minutes again because he played really well from them

474
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 3: last year on a surprising next team. And here he

475
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 3: goes down again Lee, which sucks. I don't know how

476
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 3: severe it is. Didn't look good. Never when a guy

477
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 3: crashes into like a seven foot or his knee and

478
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 3: it sort of goes backwards a little bit. But I

479
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,640
Speaker 3: guess we'll see here with Nerlans as well. Just sucks, Yeah,

480
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 3: it does.

481
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 5: I mean this is a guy, of course, who has

482
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 5: bounced around a fair bit in his young career, and

483
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 5: the Knicks re signed him, and you know, if Tom

484
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 5: Thibodeau re signed you. He loves you, and you're probably

485
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 5: with Tibbs for life, so he's going to get a

486
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 5: roll out there. But he's perfect in a backup role

487
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 5: as a center. He can contest shots, he can rebounds.

488
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 5: He's not a starting center, I don't think in the NBA,

489
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 5: but someone who can come out there and really give

490
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,639
Speaker 5: them good support. So hopefully it's not too serious. I

491
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 5: guess we'll just have to wait and see in the

492
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 5: next few days.

493
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 4: In this game, it got super loud in terms of

494
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,360
Speaker 4: Knicks fans in Philadelphia. Yeah, were there. They're a rampant

495
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 4: So how does that factor into the scientific equation? Lee

496
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 4: where they've got They've got the Knicks fans everywhere in

497
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 4: the team stream. There are a lot of bing bangers

498
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 4: in the wells Fargo.

499
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 5: I thought, Yeah, I mean, that's that's where the science

500
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,439
Speaker 5: comes into play here, Tassy, I have to evaluate all

501
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,439
Speaker 5: those aspects. But honestly, for me, it was purely a

502
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 5: visual thing of looking at Julius Randall just like more comfortable.

503
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 5: That's that he just looks like because we all know

504
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,120
Speaker 5: that in Madison Square Garden that when the expectations are low,

505
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 5: it's kind of like, well, we don't expect our team

506
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:34,919
Speaker 5: to do well. You start off the season with that

507
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 5: banger they had against the Boston Celtics. I mean, the

508
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 5: Knicks are back. Remember they had Cuomo, they had the Blasio,

509
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,879
Speaker 5: but now they've got the Bis and they're back. So

510
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 5: the bing bang listen. I just I can't believe that

511
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 5: it doesn't have an impact on you. When you're playing

512
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 5: in Madis Squat, the fans expect every night to come

513
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 5: away with a victory. And you know, they lost to

514
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 5: the Magic, and they lost to another team they should

515
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 5: have beaten. I can't remember who cases waiting. I was

516
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 5: on the road just recently. Anyway, the we'll see five

517
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:06,120
Speaker 5: and one.

518
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: On the road Raptors, Calves and.

519
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 2: Caves, the calves, the calves. That was the one.

520
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry anyway, okay with Andre Drummond, I'm sure you

521
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 3: saw this tree, but I just wanted to share it

522
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 3: with everybody here joining us live and listening later. Eighty

523
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 3: fifth big beef for Andre Drummond in his career?

524
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 1: Is that true?

525
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 3: That's what they said. It caught me by surprise. Eighty

526
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,679
Speaker 3: five that's what they said. Awesome, I'm just saying I

527
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 3: heard that. I was like my mouth. Yeah, my jaw

528
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 3: hit the floor. It's like, what I mean, he might.

529
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: Let me consult the Kirby Sports bureau here for a minute, Skeets,

530
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 1: you tap dance for a second. Now, Yeah, there's no

531
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 1: eighty five this.

532
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 3: Podcast.

533
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, and look, he was in Detroit, in

534
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 5: a in a city that now on a team that

535
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,439
Speaker 5: wasn't really making the headlines, so he could have done it,

536
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 5: you know, I mean.

537
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 3: Come on, come on, who's going to clarify Trey's counting

538
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 3: them off or we got the stream team?

539
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 4: You know, this is ten. This is crazy.

540
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: Maybe it this is crazy. It's eighty five.

541
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 4: Wow, unbelievable.

542
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: That big, beautiful beefer. He should get a crown. He

543
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 1: should get to wear a crown around. I remember last

544
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 1: year we started tracking these things. I was like, this

545
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,199
Speaker 1: guy is clearly going to be the beef king. He

546
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: was running away with it. He had three in a

547
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: month and then basically the Cavs shut him down, shipped

548
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 1: into Los Angeles, no beefs. But the beef is back.

549
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 1: That's incredible to me. So I don't know. I mean,

550
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: maybe em Beat is the guy they should trade. What

551
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: the beef run will here?

552
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 3: I want to say it was Kate Scott dropping that stat.

553
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 3: That's incredible. That that is amazing.

554
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 4: I'm going through year by year. First year didn't have one,

555
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 4: but a second year came out beefed it up seven times.

556
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,439
Speaker 4: That's a huge number. And then his third year, what

557
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 4: a year that was. We're talking double decker beefs. We're

558
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 4: talking double digit beefs one, two, three, four five. That's

559
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 4: like eleven beefs. So yeah, eighty five, that makes sense.

560
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 4: You need about ten a year. He had eleven. I

561
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:05,160
Speaker 4: think a second year.

562
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 3: Crazy wow, crazy. All right, Well, let's get to more

563
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 3: beef in a second. Here, we're gonna take our first break.

564
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 3: We'll get into the Yokich Morris fracas and whether or

565
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 3: not susmensions will be handed out by the league. We'll

566
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 3: talk about Steph Curry and his fifty point performance, a

567
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,679
Speaker 3: lot of other entertaining games as well. We'll get to

568
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 3: but a quick break to pay the bills what we got? Okay,

569
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 3: back with no dunks here, let's do a little games

570
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 3: recap by way of true or False. Okay, I'm convinced

571
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 3: this music for our true or False intro is also

572
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,360
Speaker 3: used in How Does This Get Made? Have never seen

573
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 3: that show, Lee and Jadi.

574
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 7: Yeah, I've seen it and I just actually when you

575
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 7: an that this morning, I went and listened to it

576
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 7: and it's similar, but I don't think.

577
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 4: It's the same.

578
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 7: Ah, there's but what Ben is sold on? Well, there's

579
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:14,120
Speaker 7: probably what eighteen seasons of it, so they may they

580
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 7: may have. Actually I think I was listening to season

581
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:17,880
Speaker 7: twelve versions.

582
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 3: Spoiler spoiler alert, don't tell me what they're making or shares.

583
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 4: Just kidding.

584
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't know, but I can definitely hear the similarity.

585
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 3: Okay, similarities. So every time I see that on TV,

586
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, that's the true or false music. Okay,

587
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 3: it's not the exact same. Good to know. I can

588
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 3: sleep at night now. So little games recap with some

589
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 3: true or false questions. We'll ask these questions that everybody

590
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 3: here in the stream team. Let's see your answers to

591
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 3: the guys here, everybody listening. Later, tweet at us at

592
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 3: no dunk sinc. Leam in the YouTube comments wherever you want.

593
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,959
Speaker 3: First one, Curry scored fifty last night and I'll win

594
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 3: over the Hawks. Golden State improved to nine and one.

595
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 3: He all said ten assists, his first ever fifty and

596
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 3: ten hen game task, so true or false? Just just

597
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 3: rip the band aid off here and ask it true

598
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 3: fall Steph Curry is gonna win his third MVP.

599
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 4: Oh, I want to say yes. After that fifty points,

600
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 4: twenty eight shots. It wasn't He wasn't pushing it at all.

601
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 4: He wasn't just trying to get up there. I mean

602
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 4: right when he got close there to fifty. Yeah, he

603
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 4: was trying to get to fifty. But I do want

604
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 4: to say yes. I think he's gonna fall a little short.

605
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 4: Who the heck knows really, if the Warriors keep this up,

606
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 4: he's got a good shot. But I think Steve Kerr

607
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 4: has a better shot at Coach of the Year because

608
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 4: Steph his numbers aren't as good as the MVP years,

609
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 4: and I think that's gonna hurt him just a little.

610
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 4: Other than the free throw percentage where he's shooting ninety

611
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 4: eight percent from the line, what he's fifty to fifty

612
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 4: one from the line. Other than that number, the numbers

613
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 4: are down a little bit, so I think that hurts.

614
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 4: But the fact that they have jumped up as a

615
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 4: team yet you mention they're nine to one their twentieth

616
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 4: in offense last year, which was a disgrace with Steph

617
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 4: Curry on that roster having a ridiculous year. But the

618
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 4: reason why I think Steve Kerr should be a lead

619
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 4: for Coach of the Year right now is because of

620
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 4: everything he's done around Steph to make this team better.

621
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 4: So I think voters will say in both the MVP

622
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 4: voting and the Coach of the Year voting, Wow, this

623
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 4: team is that good. Why? Well, because Steph is raising

624
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 4: the bar of this team, but also because Steve Kerr

625
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 4: has turned all these guys into players, you know, Damien Lee,

626
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 4: over the years watching Steph Curry run around and be incredible.

627
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 4: He's turned Gary Payton the second into a guy who's

628
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 4: sort of on the periphery of a roster. Now he's

629
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 4: dunking on people because he's playing like a center because

630
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 4: he can't shoot. Let's just pick and roll Otto Porter,

631
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 4: all these guys name when you be alitt all these

632
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 4: guys down the line. So I think Steve Kerr would

633
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 4: probably get first in line before Steph would win MVP.

634
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 4: But obviously Steph is right up there. The question is

635
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 4: now nine to one, they've had a bit of a

636
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 4: softy of a schedule, it's going to get a little

637
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 4: tougher and the wins won't come as easy, and I

638
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 4: think teams are going to start hitting shots against them.

639
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 4: But if you're beating teams like the Hawks, I think

640
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 4: you know the number one seed is is the Jazz

641
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 4: is to lose I think in the Western Conference. But

642
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 4: the Warriors, I think I think they'll be able to

643
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 4: play with them throughout the year. So, yeah, Staff's got

644
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 4: a great shot, and he's got the narrative of who's

645
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 4: their second best player, you know, Draymond. How are they

646
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 4: doing it well? I think Steve Kurr has got a huge,

647
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 4: huge reason to do with.

648
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 3: That bet MGM. As of this morning, tray has Kurry

649
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 3: is the favorite for MVP plus two seven five. Then

650
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 3: it's plus five point fifty for Durant and Giannis, and

651
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 3: then it goes from there like Luca Embiid and Yokichen

652
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 3: all that. So what do you think with this tour

653
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 3: of false is he can you do this? He's gonna

654
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,959
Speaker 3: win a third MVP? I would say lock it in.

655
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 3: At least through ten games, He's sitting at the head

656
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 3: of the MVP table. Steph Curry finished third in MVP voting.

657
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 3: Last year missed nine games, got more first place votes

658
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 3: than Joelle Embiid did, and that was a season he

659
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 3: led the league in scoring. He's second right now, like

660
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 3: Tasas say, and he's knocking it down at the free

661
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 3: throw line. Has actually had a kind of up and

662
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 3: down season. He's had a couple of hugelsions, but couple

663
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 3: games like in opening night when he said he played

664
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 3: like trash despite having a triple double. But I mean,

665
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 3: the Warriors look like the best team in the Western

666
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 3: Conference through the first three weeks of the season. That's

667
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 3: not a long time, but you got to win the

668
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 3: games you play, so their schedule is soft, and Curry

669
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 3: looks incredible. He looks like he's playing at least at

670
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 3: an MVP level. We saw the respect he had last

671
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 3: year in a down season for the Warriors. So if

672
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 3: the team is.

673
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 1: Actually this good or approaching this good, if they finish

674
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 1: top two or three in the Western Conference, I think

675
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: Curry is the easy choice.

676
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 3: Lee tru or false, Curry third MVP.

677
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 5: True for now, Yes, I think he's the clubhouse leader

678
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 5: pretty far ahead too. I don't think Durant and Giannis,

679
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 5: especially considering the Bucks record are really that close. But

680
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 5: it is only ten games in, so the Bucks will

681
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 5: be better. I'm sure they'll be better, especially once they

682
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 5: get that guys back. And you just wonder if the

683
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 5: Warriors can keep up this pace right now. I mean

684
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 5: nine to one, so you figure they're going to drop

685
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 5: off at some point. But it Steph stays healthy and

686
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 5: the Warriors win fifty five to sixty games, yeah, he's

687
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 5: probably going to win it, I think. I mean, it's

688
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 5: almost like the narrative is coming back, Like, you know, Steph.

689
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 5: People sort of I think turned on him a little

690
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 5: bit when they didn't win the championship, and now it's like, oh, actually,

691
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 5: we do love this guy again. And if he puts

692
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 5: on performances like you did last night, which was actually

693
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 5: predicted by Kandas Parker by the way, she tweeted out

694
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 5: before the game. Here, Steph is going to have fifty tonight.

695
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 5: Anytime you play against the young protege, you've got to

696
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 5: let him know. Incredible stuff from Kandas Parker and Trey Young.

697
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 3: I think he's averaging thirty nine point three game against

698
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 3: Tree Young in that Yes, Trey Young had had a

699
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 3: good two and a half quarters there, but Steph really

700
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 3: did put the foot down there and showed him the

701
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 3: difference between a potential and a superstar and Hawk struggling

702
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 3: to continue to struggle.

703
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 5: Right now, they've got on a back to back, they

704
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 5: go to Utah tonight. Things are getting a little bit

705
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 5: tough there for them. But when Steph's playing like this,

706
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 5: with that freedom and that.

707
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 2: Fluidity, he's beautiful to watch.

708
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 5: He's just I mean, he's so gorgeous to watch shoot

709
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 5: the basketball and oh gorgeous. I mean, you know, nine

710
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 5: for nine from downtown. I think he had the first

711
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 5: eight points of the game there too.

712
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 2: Last night.

713
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 5: He was just those uniforms look great, the court looked beautiful.

714
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:11,879
Speaker 5: It was a very nice, aesthetically pleasing game last night.

715
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 3: I do have a question, especially for you, Lee Ellis,

716
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 3: because you were on record having gone nuts before with

717
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 3: people patting their stats, as you say, You've pointed it

718
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 3: out with Russell Westbrook millions of time on this show.

719
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 3: But no issues when a guy's just gunning for fifty,

720
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 3: which he absolutely was. And I'm not saying whether it's

721
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:32,879
Speaker 3: right or wrong. I just want to get your take

722
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 3: on a guy like Curry doing that last night. He's

723
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 3: at forty seven game's pretty much in hand. He's still

724
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,359
Speaker 3: out there and he's trying to get to fifty. Yeah,

725
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,359
Speaker 3: no issues when well he does that or somebody else

726
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 3: does it. It's not about whether or not you have

727
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 3: an issue. It's whether or not he's pretending he's doing

728
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,920
Speaker 3: it or he's not. And he was not pretending that

729
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 3: he wasn't doing.

730
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 2: He was going for it.

731
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:51,760
Speaker 3: Okay.

732
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,319
Speaker 5: Every player in the NBA pads their stats to some degree, right,

733
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,359
Speaker 5: you know, because they want that extra rebound, they want

734
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 5: that extra assist, that extra basket. They hold onto the

735
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 5: ball until just after the shot clock goes off so

736
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 5: that I miss a three pointer. So my point is

737
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:11,280
Speaker 5: everybody does it. Some a little bit more obvious than others,

738
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,279
Speaker 5: Russell Westbrook for one, but Steph Curry does it as well.

739
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 5: Steph Curry also tries to embellish calls, you know, So

740
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 5: he's not perfect. It's not like he's above criticism of

741
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 5: any kind. He's tried to do that, and last night

742
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,800
Speaker 5: he tried to get fifty and he got it. Now,

743
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 5: would Russell Westbrook be happy with a guy girl for fifty?

744
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 5: I mean, that's the real question. He's turn it on.

745
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 3: I think what's funny though, is entering last State's game,

746
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 3: Curry had been in a bit of a slump. For him.

747
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,239
Speaker 3: He had been held to twenty or fewer points in

748
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 3: four consecutive games for the first time since twenty fourteen.

749
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 3: I read, uh so again for Curry, he's in a slump.

750
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 3: It didn't really matter because they're playing a lot of

751
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 3: shitty teams and beating them, so their record's amazing. But

752
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 3: then he popped off for fifty and suddenly he's back

753
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 3: at the top of the MVP leaderboard or at the

754
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 3: table ordering for everyone. And I tend to agree. I mean,

755
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 3: when you're in one, I mean, yeah, that's pretty damn impressive.

756
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 3: And he has amazing numbers too. I saw that Basketball

757
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 3: Reference finally fired up their NBA MVP like tracker. You

758
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 3: know we've talked about before. Curry is first right now,

759
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 3: with like a thirty seven percent chance to win m VP,

760
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 3: followed by Jokic, Butler, Kevin Durant, and can you name

761
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 3: the fifth guy. No, he's sixth, and I think he

762
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 3: actually would be if I was making my my list

763
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 3: of my five guys, I think I would have him

764
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 3: at the table. No, it's one other guy that morent No,

765
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 3: he's he's sort of in play too. Good team, but

766
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,560
Speaker 3: this guy's not a score, so you never you always

767
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 3: forget Rudy, Rudy, Rudy goverar there the big like what's

768
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 3: the average in like, you know, fifteen and sixteen. I'm

769
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 3: sure is somebody getting a phone call.

770
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 4: Right now or a text message?

771
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 3: I just want to make sure. I just want to

772
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 3: make sure I'm not hearing this. Pretty sure. I heard

773
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 3: a leaf floor about a half hour. Yeah, but we

774
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:00,880
Speaker 3: don't even mention it now. It's just common, Okay. Our

775
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 3: next one here, and this is off the Yolkich and

776
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 3: Markith Morris Fraccas as I said, which nuggets won? By

777
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 3: the way, one thirteen ninety six the true false question,

778
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 3: and we're going to show you the play here too,

779
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 3: or the bumping and the pushing and the shoving and

780
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:18,240
Speaker 3: all that is true or false. A suspension is coming

781
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:23,279
Speaker 3: for specifically Yelkic the raining MVP Lee and I know

782
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 3: GED's got the clips so we can start talking about

783
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 3: it while we watch it. But what did you think

784
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,880
Speaker 3: about the whole incident? And do you think he deserves

785
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 3: a suspension for it?

786
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,479
Speaker 5: I've got him down for at least one game, probably too,

787
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,240
Speaker 5: because it was a pretty severe reaction to a cheap foil.

788
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 5: But it was a retaliation foul, and I think he

789
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,200
Speaker 5: probably gets some lenients from the league from that. It

790
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 5: wasn't like he just did it for no reason. But

791
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,240
Speaker 5: the fact that Markeith Morris was down for a while

792
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 5: and he was injured, I don't think he avoids getting

793
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 5: a suspension at all. But the fact here is that

794
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,880
Speaker 5: you know, he wasn't unprovoked. Morris knew what he was doing.

795
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 5: This wasn't a take foil. This a take fowl stops

796
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 5: the play. You know, the guy who is getting fouled

797
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 5: can pretty much see it coming, and he knows that

798
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 5: the guy is going to sort of, you know, obviously

799
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 5: foul the guy without intenting, without injuring him or trying

800
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 5: to hurt him in any way. But it's not bodying

801
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 5: a guy who was in his shooting motion. And that's

802
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 5: what Morris did. He bodied it, and so you know,

803
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:20,800
Speaker 5: he could have put his hand out and sort of

804
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 5: wrapped up Yokich at that stage at the game, but

805
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:23,319
Speaker 5: he didn't do that.

806
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 2: He clad it into him. But that also doesn't.

807
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 5: Allow you a blank slate to just drill a guy

808
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 5: from behind with the ferocity that Jokich did. And I

809
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,760
Speaker 5: think that's the thing here that you know, Jokic retaliated

810
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 5: to a dirty fowl committed on him with another dirty

811
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,839
Speaker 5: foul on Morris and you know, from behind as well.

812
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 5: But Jokich's foul doesn't happen without Morris's first. But I

813
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 5: will say as well, the Miami Heat, look, they're playing

814
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 5: victim here. Nobody would speak to the media after the

815
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 5: game except for Eric Spolstra, and I think you know,

816
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 5: Jimmy Butler wanted to fight everyone last night. They didn't

817
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 5: speak to the media because they knew they were going

818
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:00,720
Speaker 5: to get asked a question, well, what did MA do first?

819
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 5: What you know, did he deserve some sort of retaliation

820
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 5: And they just didn't want to have to face up

821
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 5: to that. Eric Spolstra, who I absolutely admire and respect.

822
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 5: I think he's done incredible things for starting as a

823
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 5: video editor after the game, said I was just a

824
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,400
Speaker 5: take fail. And he sort of tried to catch himself

825
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 5: a little bit and say with maybe a little bit more,

826
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 5: but that's not a take fail. That is not a

827
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 5: take fail at all. So my impression of it is

828
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 5: that Morris deserve retaliation. But I think Jokich, you know,

829
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 5: steaming into him from behind like that is probably going

830
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 5: to get him. I think two games and again Morris

831
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 5: was down.

832
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:36,359
Speaker 2: He was off, but.

833
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, look his neck whiplash. He stayed down for a while.

834
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,479
Speaker 3: They brought the stretcher. Fortunately they didn't have to carry

835
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 3: him out on the stretcher. Now, I know some people

836
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 3: are going to say he's acting bullshit, he's playing it up.

837
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 3: Who knows. As for them not tiging to the media

838
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 3: after the game, Lee, I guess you could look at

839
00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 3: it another way, as they were worried that the team's

840
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 3: being around each other in the hallway. Like you said,

841
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,399
Speaker 3: Jimmy Barkin and everyone, these two teams are hot. It's

842
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 3: near the end of the game there, so it wasn't

843
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:07,800
Speaker 3: over much longer. They just wanted to keep them apart.

844
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:09,360
Speaker 3: I guess they had more cops out there in the hallway,

845
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 3: so it was like sort of a decision to like,

846
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,879
Speaker 3: don't even have the chance of them crossing paths here

847
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 3: going back to the media room and stuff like that.

848
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 3: I'm just throwing that out there.

849
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 5: Look, it's it's possible, but you you really have to

850
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 5: face those questions because in my in my belief, no

851
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 5: one wanted to whapto answer that question from Miami. And

852
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 5: again I understand Eric s Bolster going into bat for

853
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 5: his guy, saying, well, that was uncalled for, that was unnecessary.

854
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 5: But again it does not happen without Marris doing what

855
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 5: he did first.

856
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 3: So now the two rungs don't make it right here,

857
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:38,400
Speaker 3: though you're saying.

858
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 5: I just I just think the reaction from Jokich was

859
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,719
Speaker 5: you know, very very harsh, you know, to drill him

860
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 5: from behind like that, and I don't think he avoids it,

861
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 5: but he showed remorse and he had provocation behind him.

862
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 2: So that's why I think he gets two games.

863
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, he did say after the game tasks. You know,

864
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 3: he's talking about himself. It's a stupid play. I feel bad.

865
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 3: This is what he said in talking to the media

866
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,760
Speaker 3: because the Nuggets, did you know, they both got ejected.

867
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 3: I didn't say that off the top there. Yokich's gone, Morris,

868
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 3: they ultimately look at it, he's gone. Butler, I think

869
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 3: it was attack for like you know again like barking

870
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,360
Speaker 3: at everybody and wanting to fight everybody, but suspension for Yokic.

871
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 3: You think you agree with Lee two games one or

872
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 3: is it sort of over now? And they won't they

873
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:21,319
Speaker 3: won't suspend him.

874
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, I look bad, so he's gonna get one. It was, Yeah,

875
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:30,319
Speaker 4: an unnecessary hit followed by a more unnecessary hit by

876
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 4: Nicole Jokich number one. Yeah, I'm not sure why markif

877
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 4: Morris is bodying him like that, there's no need for that,

878
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 4: you know, any And Yokiic wasn't a bit of a

879
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 4: vulnerable position having his arms up. He went straight at

880
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 4: the ribs. He could have had a cracked Yokich rib

881
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 4: right there, but Jokic, Yeah, he turned it up. The

882
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 4: retaliator is always the one who gets caught, and it's interesting.

883
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 4: The refs talked about it afterwards. They said in a

884
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 4: roundabout way that if Yokic didn't do what he did,

885
00:41:56,239 --> 00:42:01,319
Speaker 4: then Morris wouldn't have got ejected, so because Jokic didn't

886
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 4: get injured by any means, and I think the same

887
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,319
Speaker 4: goes for the Jokich it. If Morse doesn't lie on

888
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,879
Speaker 4: the ground, I don't think Jokichi even gets a ject

889
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 4: or he doesn't get a suspension, that's for sure. So

890
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 4: it's all about Yeah, the ramifications in him lying on

891
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 4: the floor, and luckily for everybody, the Jokich brothers, as

892
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 4: we know Nicole Jokich's brothers, some tough dudes. They're sitting

893
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 4: in the stands there, they're always there supporting their bro Luckily,

894
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 4: Marcus Morris, brow of, markif And and the Jokich bros

895
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 4: weren't weren't in the back scrapping themselves, because yeah, this

896
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 4: could have turned into a melee, and I you know,

897
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 4: it's it's one of those things that it's hard to

898
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 4: if you take out the take fowls that were all

899
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 4: talking about as a as something that's kind of not

900
00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:49,760
Speaker 4: fun to watch, just just guys just taking intentional fouls.

901
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, markif Morris went over there literally to

902
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 4: take a found that. You know, when Jokic put his

903
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 4: arms up, he was in this vulnerable position and he

904
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:02,879
Speaker 4: threw his shoulder into those ribs unnecessary, followed by another one,

905
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,839
Speaker 4: and Jokic, I'm sure it was hurt like he it was.

906
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 4: I think it was like a guttural reaction he got.

907
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 4: He just got hit in a spot where it did

908
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 4: not feel good. So he came up and hammered Mark

909
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 4: Keith Morris after that, so it's, uh, you know, maybe

910
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 4: maybe these things stop if we take out these intentional

911
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,720
Speaker 4: fouls out of the game, because that wouldn't have happened,

912
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 4: if you know, the penalty for the intentional fouls is

913
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 4: different if it's two in the ball they start playing

914
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,280
Speaker 4: basketball again, because that's not basketball by any means. It's

915
00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 4: you know, it's kind of crappy. A seventeen point game

916
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 4: there at the end. The heat were also hot because

917
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,920
Speaker 4: they just got spanked. They got well.

918
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 3: That's exactly and we don't show you in the clip

919
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,720
Speaker 3: because it's a little too long, but yeah, take foul.

920
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 3: Whatever the hell Morris is doing. He's actually pissed off.

921
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 3: The bam out of Bio at the rim appeared to

922
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,239
Speaker 3: maybe get hit by Jokic. There's no fault foul called

923
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,360
Speaker 3: bam goes down, he's like on the ground like, you know,

924
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 3: what the hell, and Morris sticking up for his guy

925
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 3: sticking up, you know, goes and lays out Yokic with

926
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,480
Speaker 3: again I put in an air quote a take foul

927
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 3: and then turns his back tray and Jokich, who has

928
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 3: proven to have a bit of a temper, he might

929
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 3: be a temper boy, you know, levels him and he

930
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,439
Speaker 3: hit him hard, like okay, he smashed end Man. Yeah,

931
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,879
Speaker 3: buddy hit him hard and he's not looking. I think

932
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 3: it's different if he has spun Morris around because he's

933
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:21,920
Speaker 3: pissed off and went face to face with him and

934
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 3: maybe pushed him, and maybe there is no suspensions coming.

935
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,360
Speaker 3: But yeah, the hip room behind is a pretty dirty

936
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 3: look and he agreed. I mean Yokic's words dirty play.

937
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:31,800
Speaker 3: But what do you think is he getting a suspension?

938
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 1: Super cheap shot from Yokic and totally deserves a suspension

939
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 1: in my book because he is a repeat temper boy offender.

940
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: At this point, Skeet's like, you're saying he was ejected

941
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,400
Speaker 1: from the Nuggets lost to the Suns. I think it

942
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 1: was Game four last year. Brant and Cameron Paine in

943
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,279
Speaker 1: the face also from behind, so that to me is

944
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 1: the big differentiator there. Yeah, Morris went overboard with his

945
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 1: file too, but that is a take foul which we

946
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 1: see a lot. Morris gave him a shoulder because that's

947
00:44:56,560 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 1: what Markith Morris does. So Yokic retaliated. Morris didn't see

948
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,120
Speaker 1: him coming, and because of how hard Yokic hits him

949
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,800
Speaker 1: and the way he hits him, it looks really bad.

950
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,840
Speaker 1: So I think Jokic is gonna get suspended for at

951
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 1: least one game, maybe too, And I think it's totally deserved.

952
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:16,240
Speaker 3: Do you think Morris if Yokic gets a game suspension

953
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:18,840
Speaker 3: or too? Like Li says, is it fair that Morris

954
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 3: also gets a game lead? Like, because you go back

955
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 3: to what you said of like, I mean he does

956
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:26,240
Speaker 3: he does check him in the ribs. Yeah, he doesn't

957
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 3: slap him and like or wrap him up. What do

958
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 3: you think is that in player or is it just

959
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 3: gonna be Yokic that ultimately gets.

960
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:32,359
Speaker 4: The name too?

961
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,359
Speaker 5: It's in play because it is a dirty fowl. And again,

962
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 5: the guy who's in shooting motion when his arms are

963
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 5: up like that, you are vulnerable. As test points out,

964
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 5: you know that's the worst time to sort of hit

965
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 5: a guy in the ribs, and it did lead to

966
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,240
Speaker 5: something more. Again, you know, we I think we agree

967
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,359
Speaker 5: that Yokic did perhaps overreact, But again, if a guy

968
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:53,839
Speaker 5: whacks you when the game's over like that, in the.

969
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 2: Heat of the moment, you know you want to retaliate.

970
00:45:56,480 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 3: And undred pc I actually like himself sticking up for it.

971
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,279
Speaker 3: It's what he said too. He's like, you can't come

972
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:03,360
Speaker 3: and body check.

973
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 2: Me and not expect in return.

974
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I just don't think he should have obviously

975
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 3: pushed him from behind, right. But let's say slip and

976
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:11,680
Speaker 3: he's pissed off.

977
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:12,239
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.

978
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 5: And let's say Morris puts a hand out, turns around, says,

979
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 5: sorry that was you know, that was too much. I

980
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,840
Speaker 5: didn't mean to do that. But Morris walks off, you know,

981
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,320
Speaker 5: he doesn't show any remorse for what he just did. No,

982
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 5: So I think that's again a part of it. Yokich

983
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,560
Speaker 5: may have been more sympathetic if he's like, Okay, that

984
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 5: was a cheap foul, but you sort of, you know,

985
00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 5: maybe you just got caught up in the moment.

986
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 2: But Morris just walks.

987
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 5: Off like, yeah, I hit him, I don't care, And

988
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:37,799
Speaker 5: so yo kitch, I think you had the fire in

989
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 5: his eyes and responded.

990
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,400
Speaker 2: So I'm not sure if Morris gets a game.

991
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 5: I mean, potentially he does, because it was a bit

992
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,080
Speaker 5: of an ugly incident there, and they I guess they just,

993
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 5: you know, I guess they want to eradicate those type

994
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:52,359
Speaker 5: of fowls immediately if they can.

995
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:52,879
Speaker 2: From the game.

996
00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 3: They don't play until Wednesday night. I think the Nuggets do.

997
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,279
Speaker 3: So we maybe find out later today task if he

998
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:00,560
Speaker 3: gets a spender or night might be tomorrow. They take

999
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 3: their time with these sometimes. I always expect them to,

1000
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,840
Speaker 3: like by the time we're done recording, to have the answer,

1001
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:10,399
Speaker 3: but they sometimes go very, very long with deciding whether

1002
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 3: or not they're actually gonna warrant down or hand out

1003
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,839
Speaker 3: his suspension. I should say so, yeah, we'll find out.

1004
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 3: I guess soon enough.

1005
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:20,719
Speaker 4: I guess they have other things to do, but yeah, yeah,

1006
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:23,319
Speaker 4: how long does it take to make the decision? I'm

1007
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 4: factoring in every previous suspension in the history of the

1008
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 4: national basketball It's a good question, is what's the war room? Like?

1009
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:33,799
Speaker 4: What the snacks do they have in there? While they're

1010
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 4: talking about it?

1011
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 3: All right, let's hear from everybody. I know a lot

1012
00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 3: of people, at least in the stream team sort of

1013
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,680
Speaker 3: sounds like they don't think he should be suspended, mainly

1014
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,400
Speaker 3: because it's all Morris's fault by triggering it and what

1015
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 3: he did and how he hit him fascinating. We'll see.

1016
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 3: If I'm a betting man, I think he gets one game.

1017
00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:54,959
Speaker 3: Does That's what I'll That's what I'll put my money

1018
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,800
Speaker 3: on at least happening another game last night? Keep it

1019
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 3: going here, Bulls pulled away on a fourth What a

1020
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 3: fourth quarter from those Chicago Bulls. They win one eighteen

1021
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:08,919
Speaker 3: ninety five to snap the Brooklyn's Nets five game run there. So, Trey,

1022
00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:11,400
Speaker 3: I can't believe when I started writing this down this

1023
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,280
Speaker 3: morning that I was going to be asking this question

1024
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,319
Speaker 3: and you're gonna answer first, tru or false? Here with

1025
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 3: these Bulls? Are they a legit Eastern Conference contender? What's

1026
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:19,919
Speaker 3: going on with them?

1027
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:20,400
Speaker 4: All?

1028
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 2: Right?

1029
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 1: Skeets in my heart where I bleed and see red

1030
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:28,680
Speaker 1: underneath this No Dunk's Chicago Bulls T shirt, the answer

1031
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:33,160
Speaker 1: is true. But underneath my car heart Bulls hat, where

1032
00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 1: I use my brain to carefully consider each team's strengths

1033
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: and weaknesses then give a non biased opinion, the answer

1034
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:45,480
Speaker 1: is absolutely true. Here it is the Bulls are back, baby.

1035
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 1: Huge win last night over the Nets eerily similar to

1036
00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 1: the Celtics game last week. The Nets were in control

1037
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 1: for three quarters of this game. Basically, they took a

1038
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 1: two point lead heading into the fourth, but the Bulls

1039
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 1: bench really flipped the script brought tremendous energy A loted

1040
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 1: to Flo to start the quarter, and then the team

1041
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:05,360
Speaker 1: caught fire from three, went five of six from downtown

1042
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. Io hit one, Caruso hit one,

1043
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:12,160
Speaker 1: DeRozan hit another one had him going crazy. Even Vucevich

1044
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:14,960
Speaker 1: came through in that fourth quarter.

1045
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:16,560
Speaker 2: I was high Fivingtenzie.

1046
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,439
Speaker 1: She's like, he really did it. He really made three

1047
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:19,200
Speaker 1: shots in a row.

1048
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:19,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, he did.

1049
00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,920
Speaker 1: This one turned into a blowout late forty two to

1050
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,759
Speaker 1: seventeen for the Bulls. In the fourth quarter they win

1051
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:29,439
Speaker 1: by twenty three, and honestly, it has been an encouraging week.

1052
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,839
Speaker 1: They had to comeback blowouts. Very weird to say more

1053
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 1: than one comeback blowout, but it happened against the Celtics

1054
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:39,240
Speaker 1: and the Nets. They played the Sixers close twice. Beating

1055
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:43,080
Speaker 1: good teams never happened last season. And now at least

1056
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 1: the Bulls are competitive. Their top ten on both sides

1057
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 1: of the ball right now, sixth on offense, fourth on defense.

1058
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:52,640
Speaker 1: That is the definition of a contender. I'm not saying

1059
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,800
Speaker 1: they are in the top tier of the Eastern Conference.

1060
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:59,600
Speaker 1: That's likely still Milwaukee, Brooklyn, Philly's looking pretty good. The

1061
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,920
Speaker 1: heat of look pretty good here. But if the matchups

1062
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:04,799
Speaker 1: go the right way. If there's some luck in the

1063
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,880
Speaker 1: balls favor, it's not impossible they make a Hawks like

1064
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,480
Speaker 1: run to the Eastern Conference finals.

1065
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:11,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's sort of a good way of the frame it.

1066
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,399
Speaker 3: Can they do it? The Hawks did last year? Lee,

1067
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 3: Any chance? Are they an Eastern Conference content of the

1068
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 3: balls true? Foss True? Yeah, let's say why not?

1069
00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 2: Right now? They are? I think a chance early in

1070
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 2: the season.

1071
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:26,319
Speaker 5: My concern is, even though Vouchu was great last night,

1072
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:28,399
Speaker 5: the last two losses came against a team that did

1073
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 5: have a big in Joel Embiid, and they had a

1074
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:32,759
Speaker 5: bit of trouble handling him. The Nets don't have that

1075
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:36,000
Speaker 5: same guy. Obviously, they have their own guy who's pretty good,

1076
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 5: Kevin Durant. But this game actually, to me mirrored Sunday's

1077
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:41,560
Speaker 5: Raptors Nets game. It was tied at or close at

1078
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:43,440
Speaker 5: half time, I think the Raptors led, and then the

1079
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,719
Speaker 5: Nets just turned it on in the third quarter. Well,

1080
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,360
Speaker 5: this time in the fourth quarter it was the opposite.

1081
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:49,520
Speaker 5: The Nets had done to them what they did to Toronto.

1082
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 5: They just couldn't get a stop and everyone for Chicago

1083
00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:55,279
Speaker 5: was seemingly knocking in shots to Sun mu Io Oh

1084
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,239
Speaker 5: my god, what a great guy to a fun guy

1085
00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:00,200
Speaker 5: to watch he is. And DeRozan again hitting three he's

1086
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 5: as well. This was a very very impressive victory against

1087
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,160
Speaker 5: the team that looked like that recontrol. It looked like

1088
00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 5: James Harden and Kevin Durant were you know, steering the

1089
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 5: nets home to victory here but Chicago. I mean, I

1090
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,680
Speaker 5: couldn't believe the final score. There was no way I

1091
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:15,280
Speaker 5: could have believed it was going to be a blowout

1092
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:15,480
Speaker 5: like that.

1093
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:19,520
Speaker 2: So very very impressive win. Yeah, they're a contender right now,

1094
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 2: I'm sure. Why not?

1095
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 4: Why not?

1096
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:24,800
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, to us, you don't believe this. To you,

1097
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,239
Speaker 3: bolls are not a legit Eastern Conference contender. I'm sorry, Trey,

1098
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 3: I get that he has to say. I don't want

1099
00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:32,359
Speaker 3: to fuck go on with him.

1100
00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:37,440
Speaker 4: If you're going to put him in the same fam

1101
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,799
Speaker 4: as the Hawks and what they were last year, then yeah,

1102
00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 4: I think they can definitely be in that sort of

1103
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:47,719
Speaker 4: realm of things. The great part of this game was

1104
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:51,319
Speaker 4: that Vouch was playing like the big that they need

1105
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:54,239
Speaker 4: him to play like. He was a bit intimidating on

1106
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 4: the defensive end when they needed him to be, you know,

1107
00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 4: a bit a bit, I said a bit he had

1108
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:03,399
Speaker 4: a block. You know, he was around. He's not intimidating enough. Yeah,

1109
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 4: he works against the Brooklyn Nets, But yeah, they they're

1110
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,440
Speaker 4: desperate for some bigs and that's the worrisome part for sure.

1111
00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:13,120
Speaker 4: They're I don't think they're gonna be steady enough, like

1112
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 4: they're gonna go with and flow with the shooting of

1113
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:18,800
Speaker 4: Levigne and DeRozan a lot of the times, and sometimes

1114
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 4: it's gonna be great and sometimes it's not. And I'm

1115
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,399
Speaker 4: you know, it's a shocking number that they're still fourth

1116
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:26,080
Speaker 4: on defense. I think that's gonna come down. But on

1117
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:31,080
Speaker 4: the other side, this watching this Nets team is it's abysmal,

1118
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:34,800
Speaker 4: I guess because you expect them to be great and

1119
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,840
Speaker 4: they're they're not. They feel like they're a lot worse

1120
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,319
Speaker 4: than their seven and four record, but they're one game

1121
00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:43,520
Speaker 4: out of the lead in the Eastern Conference, and you

1122
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,279
Speaker 4: know they're gonna get better. And that's why a lot

1123
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:48,239
Speaker 4: of things are still wide open in this league. I

1124
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:50,120
Speaker 4: think the MVP race is still wide open because a

1125
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 4: lot of teams have underperformed the Nets, the Bucks and

1126
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:57,120
Speaker 4: and so so as are the standings. And that's why

1127
00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 4: the Bulls feel like they have more of a shot

1128
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 4: than they usually would because right now at the top,

1129
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 4: it's the Sixers who are going to probably come back

1130
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:06,360
Speaker 4: to earth a little bit, and and the Bucks and

1131
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,520
Speaker 4: Nets have not a play to that capability. So I

1132
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:12,680
Speaker 4: know you don't want to buy at skates. But contender

1133
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 4: is a strong word. But if you know it all,

1134
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 4: it always comes down to, in the billion years that

1135
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:20,680
Speaker 4: we've been doing this show, what does a contender mean?

1136
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:24,319
Speaker 4: What is it like? Yeah, they're not a favorite in

1137
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:29,640
Speaker 4: the Eastern Conference, but see contending by definition means if.

1138
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 3: You're in the playoffs, you're technically a contender.

1139
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,520
Speaker 4: Can they Can they rattle the cages of the Brooklyn

1140
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,800
Speaker 4: Nets or the Milwaukee Bucks they get into a series?

1141
00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:38,840
Speaker 4: Can they contend that?

1142
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:39,879
Speaker 3: I agree?

1143
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:40,919
Speaker 4: Good? That good?

1144
00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,759
Speaker 3: They're really solid. Every game I watch, Uh, you know,

1145
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,799
Speaker 3: more and more of the Bulls, you start to come

1146
00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:48,880
Speaker 3: around like maybe this is not you know, fleeting, uh,

1147
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:52,880
Speaker 3: and that they are legit. Also, Stacy King gained a

1148
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:54,640
Speaker 3: new fan last night. I had this one on for

1149
00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:56,960
Speaker 3: a good chunk of the night and I was watching

1150
00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 3: it in my room and Nora was like going in

1151
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:00,960
Speaker 3: and out, just like, who is this guy was yelling

1152
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 3: give him the hot. So he also held out TVJ

1153
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,840
Speaker 3: at one point, shout out to the Basketball Jones Junior.

1154
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:11,680
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's right. Uh so, yeah, she was a fan.

1155
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:13,319
Speaker 3: She's like he's got a lot of energy. He's got

1156
00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:14,759
Speaker 3: a lot of lines. It was like he has a

1157
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:15,840
Speaker 3: line for everything.

1158
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:17,040
Speaker 1: Oh he's got a lot of lines.

1159
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:20,200
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, Alice Caruso. He like leans into the

1160
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:23,040
Speaker 3: turn up the ac right, he's always talking about that. Now.

1161
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:26,000
Speaker 1: It wasn't just the hot sauce last night. Like I said,

1162
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 1: five for six in the fourth quarter, and I think

1163
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,920
Speaker 1: at one point he said the hot sauce train is

1164
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:34,600
Speaker 1: rolling cool. Also, my sister's favorite that you heard last

1165
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 1: night was they were getting ready for the dunkin Donuts race,

1166
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 1: you know, and Stacy King starts every.

1167
00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:47,280
Speaker 6: Single one with will it be Biggie Bagel, dashing donut

1168
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 6: or cuppy coffee?

1169
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:50,560
Speaker 4: Will he be Biggie Bagel?

1170
00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:52,839
Speaker 3: Who went last night?

1171
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:55,759
Speaker 1: I didn't did the Bengel win last night.

1172
00:54:56,480 --> 00:55:00,319
Speaker 4: It's a My issue with it is because I watch

1173
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:03,680
Speaker 4: a Sunday dunkin Donuts race and a Monday dunkin Donuts

1174
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:07,480
Speaker 4: race and they were the exact same race in a

1175
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:11,919
Speaker 4: different arena. They just recorded one same thing. I think

1176
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:14,040
Speaker 4: the Bagel got out to a hot start. Here comes

1177
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:17,799
Speaker 4: cup of coffee, Coffee turns it on and lap two

1178
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,799
Speaker 4: and then a big Bagel wins and celebrates.

1179
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:24,560
Speaker 3: Well my issue with that race. I tweeted this before.

1180
00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:28,000
Speaker 3: They don't stagger them. I mean, whoever's on the inside

1181
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:30,520
Speaker 3: is running way less than the guy on the outside.

1182
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:34,480
Speaker 1: Dashing Donut is just messing around out there. Dashing Donut

1183
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,720
Speaker 1: runs like half as long of a distance as Biggie

1184
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:40,719
Speaker 1: Bagel does on the outside. But Dashing Donut doesn't win

1185
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:45,799
Speaker 1: every race. Fixed ridiculous, It's ridiculous, guys. I did think

1186
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:47,120
Speaker 1: of a Ben Simmons trade.

1187
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:56,480
Speaker 3: Ly oh nice for harden Nets, if the Nets could

1188
00:55:56,520 --> 00:56:03,239
Speaker 3: get Kyrie Irving a vaccination and get them back. I

1189
00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,759
Speaker 3: don't actually hate it. If I'm being honest and we

1190
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:07,640
Speaker 3: know more wants it.

1191
00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:08,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do that.

1192
00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:12,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, I'm sure we lost some viewers there throwing

1193
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:14,239
Speaker 3: that one out. Now, I'm just kidding. Other games last night,

1194
00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:16,880
Speaker 3: If anybody wants to touch on any Grizzlies rallied to

1195
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:20,040
Speaker 3: beat the Wolves eventually in overtime one twenty five one

1196
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:26,080
Speaker 3: eighteen insane uh ending to regulation. I mean Jahn Morant

1197
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:30,000
Speaker 3: dunking in traffic, hitting a huge three, Karl Anthony Towns

1198
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:35,880
Speaker 3: hitting a thirty five foot maybe more bomb off the

1199
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,239
Speaker 3: glass to send it over time. But the Grizzlies got done.

1200
00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:41,279
Speaker 3: The Wolves should have won this game, they were in

1201
00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:44,680
Speaker 3: controls like such a brutal, brutal loss for them. Then

1202
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,160
Speaker 3: we had Luca Dntt and the Mavericks overcoming a slow start.

1203
00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,360
Speaker 3: They beat the Pelicans, who their season is a rap.

1204
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 3: It's done, beat them one O eight ninety two. Sons

1205
00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:56,040
Speaker 3: held off the Kings one O nine to one oh four,

1206
00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:58,120
Speaker 3: got a little help with an overturned call eate in

1207
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 3: that one uh. And then the Lake barely survived another

1208
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 3: elite collapse. Maybe the Hornets in overtime by three. Any

1209
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:08,760
Speaker 3: of those lead that you wanted to touch on here.

1210
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 5: Well you sort of covered the points there from the

1211
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:14,120
Speaker 5: Grizzlies and Timberwolves game. Chel Moran that dunk in Trafford

1212
00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:15,880
Speaker 5: to tie it up. It was just ridiculous how he

1213
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:19,439
Speaker 5: was able to elevate and then levitate and then throw

1214
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:19,840
Speaker 5: it down.

1215
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:20,400
Speaker 2: It was great.

1216
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:25,200
Speaker 5: But the Sons and Kings game, the Sons and Kings game. Now,

1217
00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:26,880
Speaker 5: the Sons won this game. They were up big, They're

1218
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:28,640
Speaker 5: up twenty points and they're up in the sort of

1219
00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 5: teens with about five minutes ago, and then the Kings,

1220
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:35,240
Speaker 5: the defensive effort and energy and hustle they showed to

1221
00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,880
Speaker 5: get themselves back into this game was like, that's how

1222
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:39,880
Speaker 5: you need to be from the start of the game.

1223
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:43,080
Speaker 5: A team's score still far too easily against Sacramento, but

1224
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:46,640
Speaker 5: they locked in. I think Davion Mitchell again, he's such

1225
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:50,400
Speaker 5: a great defensive presence and pest. He's going to be

1226
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 5: great like that throughout his career. But the Kings nearly

1227
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 5: pulled this off. And then there was a late call

1228
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 5: that was overturned, probably a little bit unlucky. I think

1229
00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:00,320
Speaker 5: it's one of those bang bang plays. Devin Booker kind

1230
00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 5: of got positioned, but he was also dragging his foot anyway,

1231
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:05,160
Speaker 5: Harrison Barnes made the basket, would have been gone to

1232
00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:08,120
Speaker 5: line to bring them within two points, but unfortunately it

1233
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:11,000
Speaker 5: was overcall overturned for the King. So the Sons hang

1234
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 5: on to win this one. But yeah, the Kings that

1235
00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 5: that it was a little bit too little, too late,

1236
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:20,640
Speaker 5: but you're just like they can actually apply themselves defensively

1237
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaker 5: and not get into these positions where they're down twenty

1238
00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 5: and are scrambling just to get back into a game.

1239
00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:27,640
Speaker 5: So pretty fun sort of game there at the end.

1240
00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 5: But yeah, I don't know if you guys saw that

1241
00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 5: call or not. I thought it was probably a bit unlucky. Yeah,

1242
00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,440
Speaker 5: I that call seems to sort of just depend on

1243
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:38,160
Speaker 5: on who the referees are each night.

1244
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:39,200
Speaker 3: Seemed to me the.

1245
00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:41,439
Speaker 5: Booker leaned a little bit forward and drag his foot

1246
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:42,520
Speaker 5: a little bit backwards.

1247
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:45,280
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have overturned it myself, but they did.

1248
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,880
Speaker 3: However, too A look at it, Yeah, holy crap. If

1249
00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:51,760
Speaker 3: it's taken that long, I know.

1250
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:53,480
Speaker 2: You should you shouldn't be able to overturn it at

1251
00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:54,160
Speaker 2: that point, I think.

1252
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:58,120
Speaker 3: But anyway, okay, so yeah, good good win win ultimately

1253
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:00,320
Speaker 3: from the Sons to haul off the Kings. Any of

1254
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 3: these games that you wanted to mention.

1255
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:05,440
Speaker 4: Well, I know, coming into this season, there was you know,

1256
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 4: the the graphic makers out there, the people on social

1257
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 4: media looking to add a fourth member to the Big

1258
00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:14,880
Speaker 4: three in the Los Angeles Lakers, and they're adding Carmelo

1259
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:18,200
Speaker 4: Anthony to it just because Carmelo has done what he's

1260
00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:20,880
Speaker 4: done throughout his career, and people joked about that, Well,

1261
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:23,280
Speaker 4: Melo has been part of the Big three. I mean

1262
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:25,840
Speaker 4: he is. He's played better than Westbrook. The guy has

1263
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:29,560
Speaker 4: been phenomenal coming off the bench, and he saved them

1264
00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:32,920
Speaker 4: last night. They gave up a fourth quarter lead and

1265
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:37,640
Speaker 4: they won in overtime because Carmelo Anthony is scorching hot.

1266
00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:40,240
Speaker 4: He's scorching hot. He had seven of ten threes, nine

1267
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:43,280
Speaker 4: of thirteen from the field, and I know the three

1268
00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:46,640
Speaker 4: point percentage of fifty two is probably going to come down,

1269
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 4: but man, what more could they ask for? Come off

1270
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:52,040
Speaker 4: the bench, run three point line the three point line

1271
00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 4: and bang him home. And he's doing that at a

1272
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:58,880
Speaker 4: better rate than anybody. And they could have easily lost

1273
00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:02,200
Speaker 4: this game, and I think Melo saved the day. He's

1274
01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:06,160
Speaker 4: gonna help them if he keeps playing like this, get

1275
01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:09,440
Speaker 4: them to the postseason along with Russell Westbrook, where the

1276
01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 4: big two should be taken over in Lebron and Anthony Davis.

1277
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 4: Hope hopefully for them. I thought Russell Westbrook was going

1278
01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:19,040
Speaker 4: to be the guy to get the regular season minutes

1279
01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:22,440
Speaker 4: and be enough to keep Lebron and Anthony Davis fresh,

1280
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:24,919
Speaker 4: and hopefully he will be that. But Melo's playing his part.

1281
01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:26,040
Speaker 4: He's part of the Big four.

1282
01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:28,880
Speaker 3: Baby, yeah. I mean the Lakers are six and five.

1283
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:32,080
Speaker 3: They might be three and eight if Melo wasn't on

1284
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,720
Speaker 3: this team. I don't even think I'm exaggerating. He has

1285
01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 3: helped last night, absolutely helped them win the game. The

1286
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:40,360
Speaker 3: bench was great for the Lakers, better than the starters

1287
01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:42,960
Speaker 3: outside of Ad really, and he's helped win them a

1288
01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 3: couple other games too, where he's just been on fire

1289
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:48,040
Speaker 3: from distance. So it's a hell of an addition to

1290
01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:50,640
Speaker 3: this team. But they look rough though. Ad got all

1291
01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 3: his pukes out tray and had a pretty dominant performance

1292
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:55,480
Speaker 3: there in a game that was way too close for

1293
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:57,760
Speaker 3: Lakers fans liking, I know, going to overtime, but they

1294
01:00:57,760 --> 01:00:58,680
Speaker 3: got it done.

1295
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:01,560
Speaker 1: Almost a five by five as well. Skeets thirty two

1296
01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 1: twelve four assists, three steals, and five blocks. He's in

1297
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:09,840
Speaker 1: the Big three as well. So use Canva pro code

1298
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 1: no dunks if you're making your graphics.

1299
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:15,160
Speaker 3: Oh nice, Yeah, I got nothing for you on this one.

1300
01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:17,840
Speaker 1: I've just been researching these dunkin donuts races.

1301
01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:21,080
Speaker 3: I think all I have from those last Night games

1302
01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:24,400
Speaker 3: at the end there. It is just like the Wolves

1303
01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:26,760
Speaker 3: in the Kings, man, like these games that they should

1304
01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:30,520
Speaker 3: freaking win and they just they just don't. These wasted

1305
01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:33,400
Speaker 3: opportunities like a bad quarter here. I mean, I'm so

1306
01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:37,400
Speaker 3: tired of seeing Luke Walton postgame comments after a King's loss.

1307
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:40,840
Speaker 3: It's like always the same. It's like copy and pasted

1308
01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 3: every time. It's like, you know, I liked our fight,

1309
01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:47,440
Speaker 3: but we wasted that opportunity. And this court it's like, yeah,

1310
01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,000
Speaker 3: this is the thing, Like you gotta get out of

1311
01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:51,200
Speaker 3: this funk. And they're five and six for the Kings. Okay,

1312
01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:53,680
Speaker 3: that's all right, but man, for the in order for

1313
01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:56,640
Speaker 3: those teams lead to get into a play in tournament,

1314
01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:59,040
Speaker 3: into the playoffs, they have to win these games. The

1315
01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:01,360
Speaker 3: Wolves absolute, we should have won that game last night.

1316
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:03,360
Speaker 3: They all played the Grizzlies for a good chunk of

1317
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:04,880
Speaker 3: the game and then just give it all the way

1318
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 3: in the final five minutes. Obviously, can't get them done

1319
01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:08,800
Speaker 3: in overtime, just by cat getting them there. And then

1320
01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:10,240
Speaker 3: sort of the scene with the Kings there too, a

1321
01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 3: little different than what happened with the Suns. They're playing

1322
01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:14,040
Speaker 3: a good team, but it's just like, you don't win

1323
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:16,520
Speaker 3: these games, you're not getting into the playoffs, done know.

1324
01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:20,720
Speaker 5: And if you're the Minnesota Timberwolves, you now play the Warriors, Lakers,

1325
01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:23,400
Speaker 5: and Clippers all on the road before coming home to

1326
01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:24,600
Speaker 5: play the Phoenix Sun.

1327
01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:26,120
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's tough.

1328
01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:28,320
Speaker 5: They also the minute the New Orleans Pelicans have one

1329
01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 5: win this year, guess who that came against Minnesota. They

1330
01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:34,480
Speaker 5: just don't have that ruthlessness about them. They just can't

1331
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 5: close out a team.

1332
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:36,400
Speaker 2: The Memphis Grizzlies.

1333
01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:38,640
Speaker 5: As much as I love watching jar Moran, they're just

1334
01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 5: not a good defensive team. This was They both teams

1335
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:43,880
Speaker 5: probably circled each other on the calendar last night and thought, yep,

1336
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:46,920
Speaker 5: this is a win for us tonight, and the Grizzlies,

1337
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:49,520
Speaker 5: leading by double digits late, couldn't close it out. And

1338
01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:51,800
Speaker 5: it was only that freakish bomb from Cat that even

1339
01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:54,400
Speaker 5: got them into overtime, you know, So they were sort

1340
01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:57,320
Speaker 5: of playing with fire anyway there. But yes, it's just

1341
01:02:57,360 --> 01:03:01,040
Speaker 5: so hard to see what the upside here for the Timberwolves.

1342
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:03,400
Speaker 5: You know, some decent players. Anthony Edwards is good to watch.

1343
01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:05,560
Speaker 5: DiAngelo came back. He was good for them last night.

1344
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:08,680
Speaker 5: But if they can't beat a Grizzlies team from that position,

1345
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:12,160
Speaker 5: then it's really really hard to see how Minnesotas string

1346
01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:14,400
Speaker 5: any sort of consecutive wins together.

1347
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:16,840
Speaker 3: All right, let's take one more break and then we'll

1348
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:18,360
Speaker 3: get to a very fun tweet of the night and

1349
01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:23,680
Speaker 3: our Peckham results. Let's get to tweet of the note.

1350
01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:28,560
Speaker 4: Tweet of the note. Wow.

1351
01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:32,760
Speaker 3: Twitter lely tweeted the name man, what are you going?

1352
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:33,280
Speaker 6: Yes?

1353
01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:39,280
Speaker 2: And it comes from Twitter savant. Would we say that

1354
01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:40,520
Speaker 2: about Rex.

1355
01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:44,439
Speaker 5: Chapman, who's really really added to his profiles, really blown

1356
01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:46,240
Speaker 5: up on Twitter in the last couple of years, And

1357
01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:50,240
Speaker 5: he tweeted this out yesterday, said tell something about yourself

1358
01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:53,400
Speaker 5: that sounds like a lie but is actually true. The

1359
01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:57,400
Speaker 5: first NBA game I attended I played in Okay, Well

1360
01:03:57,440 --> 01:03:59,560
Speaker 5: that's pretty That is pretty amazing, isn't it.

1361
01:03:59,600 --> 01:03:59,880
Speaker 4: Really?

1362
01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:03,280
Speaker 5: You would think like a basketball protege growing up, he

1363
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:05,600
Speaker 5: would have at least gone to a game. He's from Kentucky, though,

1364
01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:08,200
Speaker 5: so they didn't have an NBA team, so maybe that's

1365
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:10,400
Speaker 5: part of the reason. But I thought that's not a

1366
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,040
Speaker 5: bad little exercise for us to go through here this morning,

1367
01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:17,840
Speaker 5: So I'll go first. Okay, the first one on one

1368
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:21,520
Speaker 5: interview I ever did with a player athlete was with

1369
01:04:21,640 --> 01:04:30,040
Speaker 5: Derek Jeter of the New York Yankees. I was an

1370
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:33,040
Speaker 5: intern at the Score and I was down to watch

1371
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:35,160
Speaker 5: the Blue Jays and Yankees, and it was like, just

1372
01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:38,000
Speaker 5: get postgame sound clips, you know, from the pitcher and

1373
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:39,640
Speaker 5: from Vernon Wells or someone who.

1374
01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:40,800
Speaker 3: Ever done it.

1375
01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:43,200
Speaker 5: I had never done one on one stuff before. I've

1376
01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:46,080
Speaker 5: been in scrums before, like doing this stuff. But it

1377
01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:48,600
Speaker 5: was the Yankees in town and I was like, I've

1378
01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:51,680
Speaker 5: got to at least try something here. I went up

1379
01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:53,680
Speaker 5: to the Yankees pr man before the game and I said,

1380
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 5: any chance I can get Derek Jeter one on one?

1381
01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:58,280
Speaker 5: You know, I work at the Score here. He's like,

1382
01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:00,800
Speaker 5: you can ask him you self if you want when

1383
01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:02,440
Speaker 5: he comes to the dugout for batting practice.

1384
01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:04,000
Speaker 4: And I was like, I don't want to do my job,

1385
01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:04,479
Speaker 4: you asked.

1386
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:06,880
Speaker 2: I was like, you know what, all right?

1387
01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:07,480
Speaker 3: I will.

1388
01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:09,400
Speaker 4: Fine.

1389
01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, And so the Yankees came out and they all

1390
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:14,400
Speaker 5: went into the dugout and I was like, oh my god,

1391
01:05:14,440 --> 01:05:14,840
Speaker 5: there he is.

1392
01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:16,720
Speaker 2: There's Derek Jeter. Oh my god. What am I going

1393
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,640
Speaker 2: to do here? I thought, well, go for it.

1394
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:22,320
Speaker 5: So I went down into the dugout, took the steps down,

1395
01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:24,560
Speaker 5: and I felt like I was about an inch tall

1396
01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,200
Speaker 5: surrounded by you know, all these athletes. I mean, Derek

1397
01:05:27,240 --> 01:05:29,480
Speaker 5: jud Is probably not he's probably six two or six three.

1398
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,640
Speaker 5: He's probably you know, he's not super big. But I

1399
01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:33,960
Speaker 5: put my hand out, and his hand it felt like

1400
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:34,439
Speaker 5: it just.

1401
01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:38,160
Speaker 2: Like devoured my glove. Yead off.

1402
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:40,920
Speaker 5: He had his mother anyway, he was. He was not

1403
01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:44,160
Speaker 5: thrilled that I approached him, and I said, excuse me,

1404
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:46,000
Speaker 5: My name is Leo. Worked for the Score. I was

1405
01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:48,160
Speaker 5: an intern. I was just wondering if I could have

1406
01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:49,760
Speaker 5: a few minutes of your time for a little one

1407
01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:51,800
Speaker 5: on one and he and he looked up at me

1408
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:53,680
Speaker 5: and he said, just give me a few minutes in

1409
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:56,760
Speaker 5: And I thought, that's a classic blowoff. I went out

1410
01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:58,920
Speaker 5: there and I waited, you know, stalked him a little bit,

1411
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:01,560
Speaker 5: just stood there already like I'm right here so you

1412
01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:02,440
Speaker 5: can't walk past me.

1413
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:04,720
Speaker 2: Came out. We had a great one on one. It

1414
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:05,520
Speaker 2: was incredible.

1415
01:06:05,560 --> 01:06:07,880
Speaker 5: So I've got a bad start. I think that's like

1416
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:09,840
Speaker 5: hitting a Grand Slam with your first at bat.

1417
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:15,480
Speaker 3: If you ask me, did you have a did you

1418
01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:16,680
Speaker 3: have like a camera crew?

1419
01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:18,880
Speaker 5: With it was yeah, yeah, I did because I had

1420
01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:21,120
Speaker 5: the because they again they wanted me to just do

1421
01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:24,120
Speaker 5: the postgame scrums. So there was a camera there and

1422
01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 5: I just said to the go I said, news director,

1423
01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:27,960
Speaker 5: I said, do you mind if I just go down

1424
01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:29,480
Speaker 5: and see if I can get something else to make

1425
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:31,800
Speaker 5: a story. Made a story about Joe Girardi. Got Joe

1426
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:39,240
Speaker 5: Girardi one on one, Got Joe Pisada one on one. No,

1427
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:42,440
Speaker 5: because they play, they play like three days in a row.

1428
01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:44,560
Speaker 5: So I got Jude. I walked back to the office set.

1429
01:06:44,560 --> 01:06:45,920
Speaker 5: I got direct Juda one on one and they're like,

1430
01:06:45,920 --> 01:06:47,920
Speaker 5: how did you do that? Like, I just asked for him.

1431
01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:52,160
Speaker 5: Usually you've got to put in the request like three

1432
01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:54,080
Speaker 5: days in advance, and you know, there's a little bit

1433
01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:55,480
Speaker 5: of back and forth. And I just said, I just

1434
01:06:55,520 --> 01:06:57,480
Speaker 5: asked him, and they let me have their juter And

1435
01:06:57,480 --> 01:06:59,120
Speaker 5: so I made a whole feature right on the score

1436
01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:01,920
Speaker 5: and everything. Wow of Joe Girardi there he was talking

1437
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:04,040
Speaker 5: to Joe Girardi was talking to me about some player

1438
01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:05,480
Speaker 5: I'd never heard of. But I was just doing the

1439
01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:10,320
Speaker 5: casual Yeah, uh huh, gotcha, gotcha?

1440
01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:11,400
Speaker 1: Oh good one.

1441
01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:14,880
Speaker 3: I mean a tough one to follow up trade? What

1442
01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:17,680
Speaker 3: is uh as Rex Chapman asked in his tweet, I

1443
01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:21,320
Speaker 3: mean Twitter savant, Rex Chapman asked, tell us something about

1444
01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:23,680
Speaker 3: yourself that sounds like a lie, but it's actually true.

1445
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:24,640
Speaker 3: What do you have, Trey, My.

1446
01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:26,800
Speaker 1: Dad invented the double decker taco.

1447
01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:29,320
Speaker 3: That's a really good one.

1448
01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:31,360
Speaker 4: That's true, he says, it's true.

1449
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:36,000
Speaker 1: You know, nineteen ninety five, these double decker tacos started

1450
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:38,720
Speaker 1: coming out at Taco Bell and part of a promo

1451
01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:42,840
Speaker 1: between I think it was for a Shack and Uh Hakim,

1452
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:45,480
Speaker 1: probably to go against each other or whatever that was.

1453
01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:51,280
Speaker 1: And once that came on, my dad was like, I've

1454
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:55,680
Speaker 1: been doing that for years. Oh my god, man, it's

1455
01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:57,640
Speaker 1: not that big of a divention to put a hard

1456
01:07:57,680 --> 01:08:00,640
Speaker 1: shell taco inside of a soft shell talk. But like

1457
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:03,160
Speaker 1: he just loves to have a clean plate. I can.

1458
01:08:03,280 --> 01:08:06,200
Speaker 1: I always remember my dad bragging about how clean his

1459
01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:10,960
Speaker 1: plate was after we would eat tacos. I mean, they're

1460
01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:13,360
Speaker 1: a little sloppy. So he had to come up with

1461
01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:17,559
Speaker 1: something a real game changer in the taco field. I'm

1462
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:21,479
Speaker 1: gonna put this taco inside of taco. Unfortunately, Taco Bell,

1463
01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:23,760
Speaker 1: you know, stole the patent. From him.

1464
01:08:23,840 --> 01:08:28,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you know, bumber bum.

1465
01:08:28,680 --> 01:08:30,559
Speaker 1: My, Dad invent that double decker taco.

1466
01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:33,719
Speaker 4: That's a good, brilliant, that's brilliant if you know hardshell

1467
01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:38,320
Speaker 4: taco plus like that clean plate does not equal uh

1468
01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:41,040
Speaker 4: just a heartshell taco. You need to add something else

1469
01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:43,479
Speaker 4: to the equation, add the soft taco. Boom, you got

1470
01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:46,760
Speaker 4: a clean plates. That's the problem with the hard shell taco.

1471
01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:47,639
Speaker 4: It's rose everywhere.

1472
01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:50,439
Speaker 3: My crack. I mean, Dad's think up of a lot.

1473
01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:51,679
Speaker 3: They think up a lot of things.

1474
01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 4: You know.

1475
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:54,200
Speaker 3: We've talked about my Armenian father in law thinking up

1476
01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:58,040
Speaker 3: the outdoor slipper that's been stolen. People are mass producing

1477
01:08:58,080 --> 01:08:58,719
Speaker 3: those now.

1478
01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:00,639
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, the back.

1479
01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:02,839
Speaker 3: Off an old shoe and now it's an outdoor slipper.

1480
01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:05,439
Speaker 3: But yep, their geniuses veryes and tasks. What do you got?

1481
01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:08,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, well let me answer this one's skeetz. Are you

1482
01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:09,680
Speaker 4: gonna answer this one? I do.

1483
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:11,880
Speaker 3: It's something I've said before, so I'll go really quickly.

1484
01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:13,720
Speaker 3: Let me slip my nick. Yeah, because I've said this

1485
01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:16,360
Speaker 3: before on the show, but I think it's a good one.

1486
01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:18,479
Speaker 3: That sounds maybe like a lie, but I once walked

1487
01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:23,160
Speaker 3: under a moving train. Wow, No, it was going really

1488
01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:25,639
Speaker 3: really slow. But it sounds crazy when you don't say

1489
01:09:25,640 --> 01:09:28,800
Speaker 3: the sped of the trade. And I'm not proud of it.

1490
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:31,560
Speaker 3: I made that clear too, don't do this, don't recommend it.

1491
01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:33,559
Speaker 3: I don't care how slow it's going. But it was

1492
01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:37,280
Speaker 3: like a classic, like going too high school with the

1493
01:09:37,280 --> 01:09:39,559
Speaker 3: same group of people every day. Because where we lived,

1494
01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:41,519
Speaker 3: the high schools over here there was a train track.

1495
01:09:41,560 --> 01:09:43,439
Speaker 3: Obviously a train would go through every once in a while.

1496
01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:45,400
Speaker 3: It's like, God, this is taken forever. So I was like,

1497
01:09:45,439 --> 01:09:49,080
Speaker 3: I'm just walking under it. I'm just like scurried underneath it.

1498
01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:49,519
Speaker 4: Why is it?

1499
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:51,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you got to get pretty. I mean

1500
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:54,040
Speaker 3: it's higher than you think. The trains are huge, but

1501
01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:57,680
Speaker 3: you gotta obviously duck down and just scurry across.

1502
01:09:57,360 --> 01:09:58,280
Speaker 1: Like a hunchback walk.

1503
01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:02,600
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, shore stends to be. I'm like, man, that

1504
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:07,719
Speaker 3: a very tall train. Yeah, really really stupid. Again, don't

1505
01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:11,080
Speaker 3: don't that sounds super dangerous? Yeah again, I mean I'm

1506
01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:15,320
Speaker 3: talking it's moving like at a crawl, right. I guess

1507
01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:17,559
Speaker 3: it's going through the city, but I don't know. I

1508
01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:19,320
Speaker 3: wasn't the only one. I mean, some people were going

1509
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:21,240
Speaker 3: over it. Some people are going under it and everybody

1510
01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:23,480
Speaker 3: starts doing it stupid.

1511
01:10:25,360 --> 01:10:30,559
Speaker 4: Probably dropping off, dropping off some manure in the town. Manure.

1512
01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:31,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wish it.

1513
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:40,800
Speaker 4: Ash from seeing great movie. I thought when you I

1514
01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:42,720
Speaker 4: thought the track would be elevated. When you were saying that,

1515
01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:45,360
Speaker 4: like you just walked under it like a train track

1516
01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:46,080
Speaker 4: that was elevated.

1517
01:10:46,120 --> 01:10:48,920
Speaker 3: I can't imagine in a train track that was elevated, like.

1518
01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:51,880
Speaker 4: A subway track that's not on the ground that I'm.

1519
01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:54,599
Speaker 3: Talking about, like a train that goes through a city, Like.

1520
01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:56,000
Speaker 4: How high is.

1521
01:10:57,680 --> 01:10:58,559
Speaker 3: Two and a half?

1522
01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:02,559
Speaker 1: No, you're not that small man, Come on. I mean,

1523
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:04,920
Speaker 1: I think maybe it was more like a horse walk

1524
01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:07,439
Speaker 1: than a hunchback walk. Like I'm telling you, I'm like,

1525
01:11:07,600 --> 01:11:08,880
Speaker 1: I'm not walking.

1526
01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:13,920
Speaker 8: Under it, like doing the limbo under it, crouched down.

1527
01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:18,920

1528
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,040

01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:33,919
Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, I'll wrap it up. So something that sounds

1535
01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:37,280
Speaker 4: like a lie, but is actually true. I've been wearing

1536
01:11:37,320 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 4: my underwear here while podcasting for the entirety of the season.

1537

01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:54,000
Speaker 4: and so I uh just get in the shower after

01:11:56,680 --> 01:12:00,439
Speaker 4: computer to start podcasting. So, yeah, the the calm thing

1542
01:12:00,479 --> 01:12:03,680
Speaker 4: about a blogger podcast he works in his underwear.

1543
01:12:04,120 --> 01:12:05,320
Speaker 3: It's true, dude.

Speaker 3: a half, they somehow, some way one by three in overtime.

1566
01:13:03,800 --> 01:13:06,960
Speaker 3: So that's a win for myself in a win for Leley,

1567
01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:10,040
Speaker 3: who improves to five and one. Task takes the Alzodis train.

1568
01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:11,960
Speaker 3: Tast is four and two. I'm three and three. Tray

1569
01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 3: two and four. Tonight's pick them game, brought to you

1570
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:19,280
Speaker 3: by Bett MGM where we go on Task. It's a

1571
01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:21,920
Speaker 3: small schedule. It's the early three games on tonight. We've

1572
01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:23,280
Speaker 3: got TNT double hundred one more is the.

1573
01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:27,040
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, just three games. The Milwaukee Bucks, fresh off

1574
01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:30,080
Speaker 4: their visit to the White House, are going to Philadelphia,

1575
01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:33,120
Speaker 4: just a little jaunt from the White House over to Philly,

1576
01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:36,759
Speaker 4: where they're six and a half point favorites. And I thought,

1577
01:13:37,040 --> 01:13:39,479
Speaker 4: being you know, the Philadelphia seventy six ers playing the

1578
01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:42,559
Speaker 4: Nick's pretty tough yesterday, they're playing everybody pretty tough, that

1579
01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:45,679
Speaker 4: one of us would take the Sixers. But we've got

1580
01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:48,840
Speaker 4: our first four way of the season. We're all taken

1581
01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:53,960
Speaker 4: to Milwaukee Bucks. Wow, because everybody's pretty confident. I guess

1582
01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:57,800
Speaker 4: the Bucks are feeling good showing off the rings with

1583
01:13:57,880 --> 01:13:59,840
Speaker 4: Biden at the White House. That they're going to come

1584
01:13:59,840 --> 01:14:03,400
Speaker 4: out and take care of business in Philadelphia. But Philadelphia

1585
01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:06,360
Speaker 4: has been playing everybody well, so this is one of

1586
01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:09,360
Speaker 4: those where we're all taking the Bucks. Lee. Of course,

1587
01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:13,599
Speaker 4: with the deer emoji, this could be one that comes

1588
01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:15,640
Speaker 4: and bites us in the ass, where phil plays it

1589
01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:18,120
Speaker 4: close because Milwaukee has not been playing all that well.

1590
01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:21,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, this one was I nearly swerved. I just

1591
01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:24,559
Speaker 3: do think the Bucks are gonna when, like the Sixers,

1592
01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:28,559
Speaker 3: at some point without all these guys playing, have to

1593
01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:31,120
Speaker 3: be due for a stinker, don't they, Lee. I mean,

1594
01:14:31,160 --> 01:14:32,760
Speaker 3: I guess that's what we're thinking here, that maybe they

1595
01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:35,040
Speaker 3: skitto last year and not the Milwaukee's played all that

1596
01:14:35,080 --> 01:14:35,519
Speaker 3: well either.

1597
01:14:35,680 --> 01:14:37,400
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's that's a thing.

1598
01:14:37,439 --> 01:14:39,400
Speaker 5: It's like the Bucks a jew the Sixers aren't a

1599
01:14:39,439 --> 01:14:41,880
Speaker 5: back to back, and Bead's not there, no Danny Green,

1600
01:14:41,960 --> 01:14:45,680
Speaker 5: no Tobias. Just fears like Milwaukee's going to stretch him

1601
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:49,439
Speaker 5: out tonight. So yeah, maybe Philly can do it. I

1602
01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:49,920
Speaker 5: don't think so.

1603
01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:52,840
Speaker 3: Okay, do you have the rest of Sarah Storyly you

1642
01:16:29,360 --> 01:16:32,360
Speaker 4: up the near five by five from Anthony Davis and

1643
01:16:32,400 --> 01:16:35,040
Speaker 4: I just did a sporcle quiz recently with these, so

1644
01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 4: they're on the brain. Anthony Davis had one a few

1645
01:16:37,120 --> 01:16:40,000
Speaker 4: years ago, twenty eighteen. But who's the last guy to

1646
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:43,559
Speaker 4: get a five by five? It was twenty nineteen, and

1647
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:44,519
Speaker 4: it's not a guy.

1648
01:16:45,240 --> 01:16:46,080
Speaker 3: Let's not Traymond.

1649
01:16:46,200 --> 01:16:47,320
Speaker 4: No, No, that.

1650
01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:50,519
Speaker 1: Was my first guess. He did what someone it's someone crazy.

1651
01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:54,360
Speaker 4: It's weird, Yeah, it's weird. Yeah, wouldn't think he's a

1652
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:55,200
Speaker 4: big man.

1653
01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:59,000
Speaker 1: He's a large man. It's gotta be Brook low Fenz.

1654
01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:03,680
Speaker 4: Good, guess. Guess the twenty four points? Would you say?

1655
01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:05,960
Speaker 2: Lee an old stock caliber guys now.

1656
01:17:06,200 --> 01:17:09,920
Speaker 4: Twenty four points, twenty three rebound, nervous, five blocks and
