Speaker 3: are big fans from Halifax. Shout out to Halifax. First off,

50
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 3: congrats on the new contract. We were eagerly awaiting your

51
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 3: free agency decision and couldn't be happier to hear that

52
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 3: you guys are going back to your roots with the

53
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 3: daily podcast. Yeah, we're loving it. But the question, my

54
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 3: male bag question, writes Andrew and Brenna, is what is

55
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,519
Speaker 3: the origin story behind the name No Dunks? A lot

56
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 3: of people were asking this, why no Dunks? You were

57
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 3: the basketball Jones, then you were the starters, and you

58
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 3: were sort of the free agents there for a second,

59
00:02:58,919 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 3: and now you're No Dunks.

60
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,079
Speaker 2: What's the very fair question, very very fair question. A

61
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,079
Speaker 2: lot of people also asking, can you explain who described

62
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 2: the free agency process how you guys got hired? Now,

63
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 2: I don't We're not going to go into that until

64
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 2: we're old and crusty, I think, and ready to just

65
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 2: riff on that. But I'll start with the name. Naming

66
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 2: things are hard, I think that's you know, we've gone

67
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 2: through a few iterations and now this one. I think

68
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 2: in part we went back to our Our first business

69
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 2: name was No Dunks Incorporated. When we were the Basketball Jones.

70
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 2: That was our business name. So this is a bit

71
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 2: of a nod to that. Uh you know that swayed me.

72
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: But also no Duncks is a bit of a hard

73
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: ass name. You can't you can't come into the paint, right,

74
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 2: it sounds cool, Yeah, tough, no layups, You're going to

75
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 2: get hit. Yeah.

76
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 3: Why did we go Why did we go with No

77
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 3: Dunks inc? Back when we were the Basketball Dones. Why

78
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 3: did we call it that as our business when it

79
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 3: was just GD.

80
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 4: Back when we were in college, we were you, me

81
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 4: and Matt were working together in our core group in

82
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 4: our final year, and I think you, well, you were

83
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 4: definitely going to the Raptors game. So this is two

84
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 4: thousand and four, five, okay, So I remember you were

85
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 4: leaving and that day there had been a story on

86
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 4: the news that Vince Carter said he wasn't dunking it.

87
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 4: So you were on your way to the game, you

88
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 4: were walking out the door, and I just yelled out

89
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 4: no dunks to you and you're like, yeah, man, and

90
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:38,840
Speaker 4: then you're like what you're talking about? And that's that's

91
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 4: where I came from ariginally.

92
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 3: I also thought there was a play on that we

93
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 3: obviously were not former athletes, and we don't have the

94
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 3: hops like Vince Carter and an NBA players. We are

95
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 3: not dunking, so there are no dunks, no dunks.

96
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 2: Down but okay, a lot of reasons.

97
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's pretty crazy that this name started with Vince Carter,

98
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, fifteen years ago. He's still playing the

99
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: league in the same city we're in right now. That's all.

100
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: That's pretty wild.

101
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 3: I was. I don't know about you, guys. I was shocked,

102
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 3: because you're right, it's difficult to come up with a

103
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 3: new name for something, especially when people become attached to

104
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 3: your former name, like we've done it twice now with

105
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 3: the Basketball Jones and then the Starters, and that grew

106
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 3: on people, I think, and people generally liked them. I

107
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 3: thought people were going to be like, no, dugs, what

108
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 3: that sucks because it is quite different than the THEUZ

109
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 3: of the Basketball Jones and then the Starters and even

110
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 3: the free agents, no the in the mix, and it's

111
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 3: just sort of it's you know, quite different than what

112
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 3: we've called sort of previous things. But people, I don't know.

113
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 3: Maybe people were just desperate to get us back in

114
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 3: their lives and we could have went with no Dinks

115
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 3: for crying out loud. But there wasn't a lot of

116
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 3: backlash at all on Twitter, and Twitter's got an opinion

117
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 3: about everything.

118
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 2: They also went through a quick name iteration change with

119
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 2: the free Agents.

120
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: True.

121
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 2: True, So we're just mixing it up every month. Maybe

122
00:05:58,400 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 2: we should just come up with a new name every month.

123
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 3: Oh wow, yeah, okay.

124
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 2: No, no concrete name. How about that? No concrete name,

125
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 2: no Dunks.

126
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 3: Were there any other names in the running, because we did,

127
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 3: like as a group, sort of come to an agreement

128
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 3: on no Dunks fairly quickly for us. I mean, things

129
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 3: usually take a long time, but we were like, we

130
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 3: threw it out there because it was a yeah, like

131
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 3: like you know, back to our roots and all that.

132
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 3: But was there anything else in the mix?

133
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: Surely there was. But I do feel like we kind

134
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: of agreed on no Dunks pretty quickly once it was

135
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: out there. Surely there are some other bad names deep

136
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: in the archives of our slack channel. Maybe we can

137
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: dig in sometime the apostigil.

138
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, just losing the bat Well, yeah, that's true, that's true.

139
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm glad. I'm pretty happy to this to this point.

140
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 2: You guys, you guys cool with it.

141
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: I like no Dunks. I like going away from a

142
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: the name. To be honest, we'd had three straight theud names.

143
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,559
Speaker 1: Why not change it up. I think it looks cool

144
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: in our logo. Shout out to the athletic made it

145
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: look great. And you know it's a just punchy no

146
00:06:59,400 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: Dunks looks.

147
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 3: But what are we as a collective like? Is it

148
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 3: No Dunk's Crew? Is just the no Dunks?

149
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 2: Inc?

150
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: Is it no Dunks? Boys? You know what I mean?

151
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 3: That was the one nice thing of the the yeh,

152
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 3: because the Jones, the starters, the preges. But I guess

153
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 3: I've been going just No Dunk's Crew for the most part.

154
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: I guess you gotta leave that up to the fans.

155
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: Let us know, all right, shoot us some hashtags?

156

Speaker 2: ceiling is for the Suns this year? I'm really glad

158
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 2: you guys are back. Keep up the amazing work from

159
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 2: Alex and a team. Very very infrequently talked about the

160
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 2: Phoenix Suns. I don't know how many more times we're

161
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 2: going to talk about this.

162
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: To get it in early.

163
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 2: Let's get it in the games matter.

164
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 3: What's the ceiling.

165
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: Thirty wins sounds about.

166
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, now even now before game one?

167
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, thirty wins would be a great season

168
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: for him. Since Devin Booker has been in town, they

169
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: won twenty three games his rookie year, then twenty four

170
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: twenty one nineteen. So as long as they are able

171
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: to turn it around and ad wins, I think that

172
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: that is consider a successful season for the Phoenix Suns.

173
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: You look at the players they brought in. At least

174
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: they brought in some professional guys. Kelly Oubrey will be

175
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: there for the entire season now. Ricky Rubio plays defense,

176
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: creates for others, which will be nice to have next

177
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: to Devin Booker. Aaron Bains is a solid defender. Dario

178
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: Sharich is a solid defender. These are guys who just

179
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: know how to play basketball. The team should be better.

180
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: It's nice to see that they have pro players. A

181
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: pro point guard so that Booker doesn't have to create everything.

182
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: Ayton is a solid player. He looks like he's gonna

183
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: at least put up numbers. He started to get it

184
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: a little bit more defensively, So you know, it's hard

185
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 1: to be optimistic about the Suns, knowing that they're the Suns.

186
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: But you know, the dawn is darkest in the morning.

187
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: Is that the saying, I don't know what it is?

188
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,319
Speaker 1: Something about a sun rise. The sun is rising. Hopefully

189
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: it continues to rise. They should be better, but I mean,

190
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: thirty wins isn't anything to write home about.

191
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 2: It's tough. I do think their ceiling is basically based

192
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 2: on the projection of DeAndre Ayton. If he is a

193
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 2: magnet in getting two bodies and they're giving him the

194
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 2: ball all the time, they could have a higher ceiling

195
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 2: than thirty wins. It's probably not gonna happen this season,

196
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 2: but really, if he is a star in this league,

197
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 2: combined with a Ricky Rubio, it's a very important pick

198
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,959
Speaker 2: up for them and Devin Booker. Yeah, no, I think

199
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 2: we could get over thirty wins. He has got to

200
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 2: be a stud and he's got to be a far

201
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 2: more decisive player on the defensive end because he just

202
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 2: gets lost out there. And really it's just a skip

203
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 2: to the rim for a lot of perimeter players on

204
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 2: the other end, So it's on his shoulders if you're

205
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 2: asking me. But it's such a tough conference. You can't

206
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 2: learn here and expect to get wins. So that's why

207
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 2: the thirty projection. Even if they go ten to thirty

208
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 2: and they go twenty and twenty in the second half,

209
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 2: I think that would be a heck of a year.

210
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you guys are right, and I think

211
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 3: thirty is a it's a low bar to reach for,

212
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 3: but it's for them that's a nice step in the

213
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 3: right direction. I'd like to see them improve fairly drastically

214
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 3: if possible, on one side of the floor at least.

215
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 3: Like they were garbage offensively, they were garbage defensively, you know.

216
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 3: With Monty Williams in there now as the coach, like,

217
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 3: i'd like to see one of those like get back

218
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 3: to like average, you know, and give yourselves a chance

219
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 3: to win some of these games. So, like, I guess

220
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 3: i'd lean towards me. I don't know. Actually, you're right.

221
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 3: With Baines and Rubio coming in there and some defensive players,

222
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 3: maybe it's more realistic that the defense comes a little

223
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 3: more bearable but on one side, pick one get better

224
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 3: at offense or defense. Yeah, good, something to help your chances.

225
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,599
Speaker 3: But I do think you guys are right with that

226
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 3: thirty win mark. It would be a good season for them.

227
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 2: And hopefully we have some some different podcasts, some fun

228
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 2: podcasts where we maybe I don't know how fun this is,

229
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 2: but dive into the Phoenix Suns and just the Phoenix

230
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 2: Suns if we haven't talked about them for months. But

231
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 2: that's the least the ability we have here with the athletic.

232
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 2: We can just come up with any podcast we want.

233
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: It could be twenty seven minutes and twenty seven minutes

234
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: on Tyler Johnson.

235
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 2: That's it, one minute for every million dollar he makes nineteen.

236
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 3: All right, Well, this next question it could take twenty

237
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 3: seven minutes to read, but we had to share it

238
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 3: because it's well written and it's quite the story. I

239
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 3: don't know if you have any like fun background music

240
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 3: or something here, Jr. But yeah, like, just buckle up

241
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 3: for this one. Okay, everyone dear No Dunk's Crew, No

242
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 3: Dunk's Crew.

243
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: All right, it's settled.

244
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. I just wanted to write y'all and say thanks

245
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 3: for keeping me sane and safe. In one of the

246
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 3: most unforgettable and harrowing experiences of my life. Allow me

247
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 3: to set the scene. I was in Sodona back in

248
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,559
Speaker 3: late June early July with my family. Now there we go,

249
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 3: let's go to nature. I thoroughly enjoy hiking, but the

250
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 3: rest of my family is fairly inexperienced and it isn't

251
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 3: their favorite thing to do. I decided to test my

252
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 3: limits by hiking. Thunder Mountain sounds dangerous, the highest point

253
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 3: in Sodona and aptly named because it's constantly struck by lightning.

254
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: Wow, it was aptly named. Wouldn't it be lightning Mountain?

255
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 3: Fair point?

256
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: Thunder doesn't strike?

257
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right, Okay. Anyway, it was set to

258
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 3: be the most difficult hike I've ever done, and I

259
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 3: went alot. Didn't Idio write this.

260
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: Experienced? Right?

261
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 3: I couldn't convince anybody, not even my brother, to come

262
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 3: up with me up the trail to lizard Head and

263
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: then up to the summit. I was prepared. I had

264
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 3: three liters of water and a camel back.

265
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: That could be mad.

266
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 3: Yeah. I had an extra extra hydro flask of water

267
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 3: because it was supposed to reach one hundred degrees that day,

268
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 3: and I had food. Okay, so you sat here. I

269
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 3: set upon my journey with the vigor and enthusiasm of

270
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 3: a little kid running into magic Kingdom for the first time.

271
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 3: The hike started, and it was steep from from the beginning.

272
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 3: I finally made my way halfway up the mountainto Lizardhead

273
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 3: in about forty minutes. I was moving very quickly, and

274
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 3: I pulled out my harmonica, played myself a little too.

275
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 3: I sent there JD. I was moving very quickly. I

276
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 3: started the hardest part of my ascent. Roughly thirty minutes later,

277
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 3: I realized something. I'd lost the trail. Oh no, bab,

278
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 3: it wasn't marked and I was following something of a

279
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 3: worn foot trail. The trail, to my horror, had disappeared.

280
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 3: I spent the next forty five minutes or so trying

281
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 3: to re equaint myself and locate the trail. Much to

282
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 3: my dismay, I couldn't find it. Each time I thought

283
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 3: I had the trail, I would follow it down the mountain.

284
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 3: Each time it turned out to be a dried up

285
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 3: waterbed that led to a sheer four hundred plus foot

286
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 3: drop off. Wow gheez. Each time I got close to

287
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 3: the edge, the rocks changed and became fragile sandstone I

288
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 3: could break with my hands, let alone be strong enough

289
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 3: to hold my weight. Let me tell you it was terrifying.

290
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 3: At one point I put a little too much pressure

291
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 3: on the stone and the piece gave out and fell

292
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 3: down into what seemed like the abyss at the time.

293
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 3: Eventually I had to call nine to one one and

294
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 3: have Search and Rescue come and get me. It took

295
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 3: them hours upon hours to locate me and send a

296
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 3: team up to get me, to get me. Bear the

297
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 3: top what I don't know what that means?

298
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 2: Near the top?

299
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 3: Maybe near the top? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, say bear.

300
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,319
Speaker 3: I don't know if that was near right? That's right?

301
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 3: Why am I telling you all of this? All right?

302
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 3: Because Skeets, Tasks and JD did a free agency pod

303
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 3: the day before July third, If memory serves me, Trey

304
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 3: phoned in from Wisconsin to talk about what was going

305
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 3: on with Kawhi Tray that okay.

306
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 1: Like Lund Resort, Baby.

307
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 3: I just wanted to say thank you y'all kept me

308
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 3: sane on the top of that mountain alone, sun beating

309
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 3: down on me, with nowhere to find shade. I spent

310
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 3: hours on top of that mountain with no clue how

311
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 3: long I'd be there, no clue where I was, and

312
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 3: completely alone, no family, no friends, just a podcast, wondering

313
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 3: if I I get to see my girlfriend or family

314
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 3: or friends again. I had no information about it or

315
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 3: when i'd be found. But I had you guys, You

316
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 3: guys who have spent a lot of time with throughout

317
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 3: the years. I've listened to every show, every drop, every

318
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 3: Twitter show. You guys made it easier for me to

319
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 3: stay sane up there. I'm thrilled that you're able to

320
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 3: find work at the Athletic. I've been a subscriber for

321
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 3: a while and they're fantastic. Truth be told, I would

322
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 3: have gotten a subscription wherever you landed. Thanks for all

323
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 3: the incredible work, and thank you for keeping me sane

324
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 3: when it was easier to lose it. If I have

325
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 3: to ask a question, have any of you ever gone

326
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 3: through something like this? All the best that that's the

327
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 3: longest email I think we've ever read on the show.

328
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 3: That is from Joe scar Kelly.

329
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: Incredible.

330
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 3: Wow.

331
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: Can you imagine the search and rescue team finally gets

332
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: up to him and the guys listening to the podcast

333
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: where Lee explains how he peees backwards on the toilet,

334
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: They're like, how did you do, a man? How'd you survive? Well?

335
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: I learned about a guy pulling an ass slater in

336
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: a bathroom, and that really just kept me focused on

337
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: staying up here. What a great email. Wow, happy to

338
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: have generated so much content to you know, keep somebody

339
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: alive for hours and hours on end.

340
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 2: Nice phone charge there as well. Yeah, big, big time,

341
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 2: big time.

342
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 4: I'm flattered that he listened to us rather than Coll's

343
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 4: girlfriend intact with his girlfriends and family members, you know,

344
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 4: because he obviously had a phone.

345
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Why you got to make sure to pre download

346
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: every single episode of No Dunks anytime you're going on

347
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 1: any sort of outdoor hike, because if you get stranded,

348
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 1: at least you have them saved locally to your phone.

349
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: You don't even need reception. Get those downloads in.

350
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 3: We had a lot of good points a buil Kawhi

351
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 3: that day. Let's be honest that that must have helped

352
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 3: us going in on Kawhi. Have you guys ever been lost?

353
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 3: Has anyone had to call and rescue?

354
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 4: Yeah?

355
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 3: That's that is that's terrifying.

356
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: Though, yeah, man, Yeah, for sure.

357
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, the unknown, even like, yeah, how long they're going

358
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 3: to take? Can they even find me? Even when he

359
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 3: had contact with them, You just don't know.

360
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: Next thing, you know, you're standing on sandstone four hundred

361
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 1: feet above a dry riverbed right bear of the top. Dangerous.

362
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

363
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 4: I once got lost on the island of Corfu riding

364
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 4: a motorcycle around. Could not find my way back to work.

365
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 4: So I hired a cab to this is in Greece,

366
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,439
Speaker 4: this is in Greece, to drive to the resort I

367
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 4: worked at, and I just followed him, paid the cab.

368
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 4: Then I just followed him all the way because I

369
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 4: had no.

370
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 1: Idea where I was.

371
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 4: He just got turned around, just got turned around, and

372
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 4: I kept going in circles. And Corfu is pretty big,

373
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 4: but it's not that big. I was just, yeah, it's

374
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,199
Speaker 4: not good for it.

375
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 2: In a modern day scenario, with a map app, you'd

376
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 2: be fine, because actually you would be because I actually

377
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 2: got lost in Israel driving this past summer, and I

378
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 2: had no idea where I was, where I was, where

379
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 2: I was going, and had no point of reference. And

380
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 2: when I looked at a map, it was in Hebrew,

381
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,439
Speaker 2: and I cannot read Hebrew and literally no English on it.

382
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean the streets could have got me back,

383
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 2: but I was just lost. But anyways, the gut found

384
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 2: the gut got me back. Nice. Yeah all right, next

385
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 2: question here another serious one, not quite as serious. Starts

386
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 2: off high gang. It was great to hear your voices

387
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 2: this week as I woke up in Canberra, Australia. So

388
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 2: great that I got all choked up at Skeet's customary greeting.

389
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:31,919
Speaker 2: Thanks pregnancy hormones. We have a woman emailing us. Great news.

390
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 2: There's three women who listen to shry Kid. There's not

391
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 2: a lot. My partner and I have spent long stretches

392
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 2: of time away from each other thanks to the struggles

393
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 2: of two academic careers, and listening to your podcast when

394
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 2: we're a part has always made me feel a little

395
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 2: bit more connected to him. It has also become a

396
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 2: holy part of the morning routine in our house. Now

397
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 2: that we're together again, we're having an impossible time picking

398
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 2: out names for our spawn. Any suggestions. He's a diehard

399

Speaker 2: That's from Melody. Thanks Melody for sending Melody. Picking a

402
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 2: name is hard.

403
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: Hard, but feel afraid to use no dunks?

404
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 4: Yeah no, If it's a boy, no dinks. If it's

405
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:22,199
Speaker 4: a girl, are they maybe are they expressing twins because they're.

406
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 3: Like yeah, but maybe, like you said, it could be

407
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 3: have a boy, have a girl one Yeah yeah, Uh

408
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 3: that's tough. And you like your MAVs fans here too.

409
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: How about if it's a girl, Angel the City of Angels.

410
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: If it's a boy, Maverick Fighter pilot something like that,

411
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 1: ride a horse?

412
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 3: What about?

413
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 2: I mean Angela is an alternative Angela? Yeah, nobody uses

414
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 2: that name, but yeah.

415
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,360
Speaker 3: She's Melody's in Australia. I'm I'm going to assume she's

416
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 3: a big Lee Ellis fan. Maybe maybe just Lee works

417
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 3: for male or female? Yeah, you're settled, Yeah, and he

418
00:19:59,040 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 3: would he would like that.

419
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 2: And I can feel what Melody's going through. We're we

420
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 2: are also pregnant with a girl, and we have no

421
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 2: idea what we're naming our child.

422
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 3: Like, no clue.

423
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 2: There's a list.

424
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 3: Do you have a list? Yeah?

425
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, but maybe I want to share it.

426
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: We can get like a live pole going or something

427
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: like that. Whoever the winner is, you can you name

428
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 1: your kid that?

429
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 3: That's always like I don't have kids, so I don't

430
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 3: I shouldn't speak to this, but I do feel like

431
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,919
Speaker 3: it's always risky sharing your list because then people like

432
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 3: you might have one in your heart like oh, that'd

433
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 3: be a nice name, and then like then you hear

434
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 3: me going that's a stupid yeah yeah, or like I

435
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 3: knew a guy. I went to school with a guy

436
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 3: in grade three. Then they was a jerk, you know,

437
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 3: like I care.

438
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 2: Well, that's why I can't meet people between now and

439
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 2: when the baby was born, because what if I meet

440
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 2: an What if I meet an a hole? What if

441
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 2: I meet an a hole Angela? And I want to

442
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 2: name my child Angela?

443
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 3: Well, whatever you do, don't find out the name of

444
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 3: the guy who's complaining about you guys being too loud

445
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 3: all the way there, then that name's gonna be crossed

446
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 3: off the list.

447
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 2: Well, maybe we'll have a naming podcast. We can do anything.

448
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: We can do anything.

449
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 2: We are gonna have a fatherhood podcast. When's that gonna

450
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 2: have gotta wait.

451
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 1: For this baby. That's the first episode is naming it.

452
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: We'll do it right in the hospital to be really

453
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 1: fine live show.

454
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 3: Okay, our next one from another person in Australia, Brody

455
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 3: in Melbourne. Since this is the last season for this

456
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 3: decade and we're going into the roaring twenties, what are

457
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 3: your biggest predictions or hopes for what basketball will look

458
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 3: like in another ten years? Love you guys, says Brody.

459
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 3: That's a good one. That's a good one.

460
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: I think we'll actually get a four point line in

461
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: the next ten years. It's been kicking around as something

462
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 1: that should be tested at least I would feel I

463
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: feel like for the past three seasons or something, or

464
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: at least enough that you know, it would be a

465
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,959
Speaker 1: topic that people are debating. And initially I was anti

466
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: four point line, like, why do we need a four

467
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: point line? We got three point line? All these guys

468
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: you gonna shoot fours. I wouldn't have been a guy

469
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: of wanting to complain about the three point line when

470
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 1: it came in in the nineteen seventies. So I'm pro

471
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: four point line here in twenty nineteen. Maybe in the

472
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: next ten years we get it thirty feet out. People

473
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 1: are taking four pointers and that's just a part of

474
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 1: the game.

475
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 2: I guess The difference is there's so many people shooting

476
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 2: at the three point arc now, unlike what happened with

477
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 2: the two points of the three point arc. No, no

478
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 2: one was.

479
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know. My dad tells me

480
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 1: he was very excited to shoot three pointers when they

481
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 1: came out.

482
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.

483
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: Pete averaged forty four a game without a three point

484
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,959
Speaker 1: line or whatever they say, so apparently people were shooting

485
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: him back then.

486
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, people are shooting the three point live. But so

487
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 2: many people are shooting now three point shots that people

488
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 2: are grumpy about that. Like my father in law talking,

489
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 2: Dad's uh the yeah, starting out, we could try up

490
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,360
Speaker 2: a couple pods in the feed, just split it off.

491
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,679
Speaker 2: Maybe we'll get some higher numbers. But sounds great, We're

492
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 2: gonna do anything. My father in law was really grumpy. Oh,

493
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 2: they shoot too many three pointers, you know. Then there's

494
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,439
Speaker 2: already a bit of a backlash against that, and then

495
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 2: you're going to take it to four pointers.

496
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, but then there will be less threes, less threes.

497
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 3: That's well, we have We're going to have straight up

498
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 3: human refs still in ten years, we're.

499
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: Talking robots talking bots, man, I mean they can track

500
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: where people are at all times on the court. You know,

501
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: we saw our first coaches challenge in the league.

502
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, they can't get on Tuesday, and there's.

503
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 3: Oh god, yeah I didn't. I didn't even know what

504
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 3: was going on. It wasn't a bar, so maybe I

505
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 3: need to be really hearing it.

506
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 2: Coaches challenges are different in basketball because it happens so quickly. Yeah, right,

507
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 2: there's no break and play. Really, coaches has to say, hey,

508
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 2: I want to do it time out and they don't

509
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,159
Speaker 2: really have the luxury that an NFL coach will have

510
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 2: it on an iPad or baseball coaches have, where you

511
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 2: have time to look to see if this happened or

512
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:52,120
Speaker 2: you're not just watching.

513
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, and correct me if I'm wrong. With the broadcast too,

514
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 3: did they that I can't remember which game it was,

515
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,919
Speaker 3: but there was the coach's challenge? And then because like

516
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,959
Speaker 3: Trey said, it's a time out, so the broadcast goes

517
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 3: to commercial, right, like they're like, all right, well, let's

518
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 3: slip in this commercial break. And then they came back

519
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 3: and it was like, what happened? You know, it's not

520
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 3: like maybe it's just because where it happened in the game,

521
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 3: and I assume you know, in the final three minutes

522
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 3: of a close game. Yeah, we're gonna see the replace

523
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 3: either replace either replay off fell or not fell or not.

524
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 3: But early on it was like I remember coming back

525
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 3: and was like, what happened? What was the you know,

526
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,120
Speaker 3: did did the call stand or did it get overturn?

527
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 3: It was just it's just a strange viewing experience.

528
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is tough for the broadcasters to get that knowledge. Yeah,

529
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 2: that information right away, even before a commercial that Yeah,

530
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 2: Frank Vogel was protesting Dwight Howard getting a foul out

531
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 2: on the perimeter against Lou Williams in the second quarter.

532
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, okay, is that the one I'm thinking of?

533
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it was. It was pretty early and he

534
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 2: lost it and he lost the time up.

535
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I hate this coach is John. It's it's so

536
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 3: pointless to me.

537
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm not super excited about it.

538
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 1: What else, what else could possibly be happening in the

539
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: next ten years. Lebron's sun will be to the end NBA,

540
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: So that to me means Lebron will be owning the Cavs,

541
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: Lebron and Brownie Junior playing together. Just sawah, Lebron and

542
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: junior almost threw down his first poster in a high

543
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 1: school game getting close. I would also like to see

544
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:14,120
Speaker 1: in the next ten years new terminology for positions. We're

545
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 1: still calling everybody point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward,

546
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: and center. There's been a bit of a movement to

547
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 1: kind of just go to guard wing, big guy, guard, wing, center,

548
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 1: something like that. There's got to be something out there

549
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: because players are playing differently, Like Brandon Ingram is playing

550
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,199
Speaker 1: the four last night, but he's also bringing up the

551
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 1: ball quite a bit. He's also a very skinny guy.

552
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: He's not going to be posting up to score baskets.

553
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,439
Speaker 1: I mean, he still plays in the post a little bit,

554
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: but he's not a power forward, but he's still considered

555
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: a power forward. There's got to just be something else.

556
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: Maybe we got to dip into soccer. You're talking about

557
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: attacking players and defending players. I don't know exactly what

558
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: it is, but there's got to be some sort of

559
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: new terminology.

560
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, I think the first step the wings

561
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 2: and biggs works to some degree, yep. And we got

562
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 2: to get rid of the numbers. I just think the one, two, three, four, five,

563
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 2: it's not really doing it doesn't really imply anything any more,

564
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 2: and it's just a little confusing. As for me, I

565
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 2: just I want the game to be easier to watch.

566
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 2: I wanted to be on my watch. I wanted to

567
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 2: be I wanted to be on a little on my

568
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 2: What are those side side things, game switch, Nintendo switch?

569
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah.

570
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 2: I just want to be able to pick up a

571
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 2: device and watch. I don't want to have to cozy

572
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 2: up in front of a laptop. Well, I guess you

573
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 2: can do it on your I never watched on my phone.

574
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 2: I mean so, yeah, I guess I should start my phone.

575
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 2: Is meant for yeah, I was.

576
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 3: It's funny you say that, though, because Richard Ditsch with

577
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 3: the Athletic, he sort of he did like an article

578
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 3: or a call him where he pulled a bunch of

579
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 3: people that are part of the Athletic how they would like,

580
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 3: what would they would do to change the TV broadcasting experience?

581
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 3: Like what would you add? What would you get rid of?

582
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 3: It's a cool article. I definitely recommend you go check

583
00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,719
Speaker 3: it out. A lot of people chimed in. I think

584
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 3: Lee even had some thoughts too. My big thing was

585
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 3: like I'm I'm pro and we've talked about it before.

586
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 3: I'm pro shortening the game I have. I love I

587
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 3: love the forty minute game that they that they do

588
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 3: in you know, international ball, and I guess in college

589
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 3: ball as well. I like that it was get rid of.

590
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,959
Speaker 3: We still we have too many time outs, in my opinion,

591
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 3: cut that crap out or at least, uh, you know,

592
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 3: crank it down a little bit. Yeah, I mean it

593
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 3: will be I can't wait to see. Like I know,

594
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 3: task you tweeted about the shot clock on the floor.

595
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 3: We saw it again last night. We had a big

596
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,120
Speaker 3: discussion with the people I was watching the game with

597
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 3: about whether it was, you know, was it good, was

598
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,679
Speaker 3: it bad? I I like it. I got no problems

599
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 3: with it. I don't think it's intrusive by any means,

600
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 3: and it's you know, it's I don't have to glance

601
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 3: down to the corner of the screen to see if

602
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 3: there's you know, five or six seconds left on the

603
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 3: shot clock. But I couldn't tell if you were a

604
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 3: fan or not, or were you just pulling the.

605
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 2: People test Well, I did have an attached tweet in

606
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 2: the threads I laid out, Yeah, that's the problem with threads,

607
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 2: you know. Yeah, are you gonna go down that thread,

608
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 2: gonna go to the end of that spool. I do

609
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,920
Speaker 2: like it. I was it on for twenty four seconds

610
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 2: of every possession. It wasn't right.

611
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: I don't have Maybe not everyone, but I thought most

612
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 1: of them at last. Yeah, majority, I'm.

613
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 2: A big fan of it popping in with five seconds left.

614
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not you don't need the whole twenty

615
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 1: four is what you're saying. That's true.

616
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it isn't intrusive. I don't mind it, And

617
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 2: I think the way we all digest sports were all

618
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 2: sort of comfortable with, you know, these three D lines

619
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,360
Speaker 2: or whatever. I think. I think. I think it's it's

620
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 2: doesn't really stick out. It's totally fine. And it was

621
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 2: the color of the floor like it's white usually, So yeah,

622
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 2: I'm totally fine with it. I don't like glancing down.

623
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 1: I like to keep my eyes aimed perfectly at the

624
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: same spot on the TV at all times. So yeah,

625
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: it's nice to have that information move up a couple

626
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: of inches on your screen. It's better than the ESPN's

627
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: three point line that they had a couple of seasons ago.

628
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 1: Remember that thing lit up wherever you.

629
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 3: Took an attempt this was.

630
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 1: The shot clock is much less intrusive. Yeah, but maybe

631
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: you're right. Maybe it just pops in ten or five

632
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: seconds left, so you know you're getting down towards the

633
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 1: end of it. You know, necessarily need it there for

634
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: twenty four.

635
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm for that. And when I'm watching on my

636
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 2: Nintendo switch, it's hard to see the shot clock in

637
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 2: the bottom right corner.

638
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 3: Right.

639
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 2: That feels like miles away, even on a switch. So

640
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 2: get it in the right in the heart. Yeah, I'm

641
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 2: totally good with it. But I also have something another

642
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 2: change I want to see that relates to our next question.

643
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 2: So let's get to it. Hey, guys, so glad to

644
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,239
Speaker 2: see you back. Congrats on landing at the Athletic as

645
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 2: a longtime listener not viewer. I'm stoked to see you

646
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 2: back to full time podcasting. My question for you is

647
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 2: in regards to load management. It seemed like last year

648
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 2: I couldn't get through any NBA content without someone dropping

649
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 2: that term. Whether it was quite taking time off or

650
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 2: embe neglecting to take time off, everyone was talking about

651
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 2: load management and how he could correct it by shortening

652
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 2: the season. Do you foresee this being the case for

653
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 2: this season, or do you think it's been overblown? We'll

654
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 2: why I play more than seventy games? Will embiid play

655
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 2: less than seventy Interesting? That's from Ethan. I'm totally with Ethan,

656
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 2: and I think this has been made up to be

657
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 2: a bigger problem than it is. And it's definitely Kawhi's fault.

658
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 2: I think Kawhi is really the only culprit. If Kawhi

659
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 2: was out of the league entirely, let's say Kawhi Leonard

660
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 2: didn't exist, load management wouldn't have even been talked about. Also, no,

661
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 2: because everybody sits out a handful of games the last

662
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 2: few years, not everybody the last few years. The Stars

663
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 2: sit out three, four or five games, and I think

664
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 2: that's sort of the big number. I think that's basically it.

665
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 2: Leonard missed fourteen games because of load management last year

666
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 2: twenty two overall, eight were said to be for injury.

667
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 2: And I don't think anyone when we're talking to me,

668
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 2: Ethan mentions Joel embid, no one got below the I

669
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 2: would say even I look through, all the Stars got

670
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 2: below the seventy games played. Nobody did no unless they

671
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 2: were injured like Joel and beat everybody was around that

672
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 2: seventy five to seventy six game mark, and there was

673
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 2: twenty one players even played eighty two games last season,

674
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 2: which is obviously down then in years past. It is

675
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 2: slowing down. But the change I'd like to see is, yes,

676
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 2: we need to shave off some games. And I think,

677
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 2: as I said, some of these stars like Staph et cetera,

678
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 2: sit three, four or five games. Yes, we got to

679
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 2: drop some, but we need to drop some games because

680
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 2: guys are looking at the calendar right now, and although

681
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 2: there's the fewest amount of back to backs in league history,

682
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 2: it's it's happening right now. Since they've gone to eighty

683
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 2: two games, guys are just looking at the calendar and saying, hey,

684
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 2: I'm cutting off these five games. I just I just

685
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 2: want to sit three, four, five. So I think I

686
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 2: think if games are shaved off, then that just won't happen.

687
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 3: And so you think if the season was a seventy

688
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,479
Speaker 3: game schedule, yeah, I like that. I think the stars

689
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 3: are playing in if as long as they're not injured,

690
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 3: they're playing in seventy games or you know, a game

691
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 3: maybe here or there, but sixty nine to seventy games.

692
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 2: Nice if it's mapped out over the same amount of

693
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 2: time and you know there's no there's no crunch of games.

694
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 2: I think I think that is what would happen. And that's,

695
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 2: you know, totally my guess, but I don't. I just

696
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 2: see Kuhi is just the He's the anomaly in all

697
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 2: this because of a season that he came off where

698
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 2: he played nine games.

699
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: And coming from the Spur system where they invented rest,

700
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,239
Speaker 1: where the Raptors rebranded it as load management. He is

701
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: the Him and Lebron are the poster child's poster children

702
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: for the rest movement, and of Dwayne Wade you would

703
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 1: throw in there as well for his maintenance program, which

704
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 1: is what the Heat called it when he was doing

705
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: his resting. But Kawhi is the guy right now, and

706
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: it seems like he will be playing more for the

707
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 1: Clippers this year just because he's got his contract lockdown.

708
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: He's made his choice free agency wise, right, He's not

709
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 1: trying to save his body, and he's just fully committed

710
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 1: to this season going forward, whereas last year there are

711
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: still things up in the air. I'm curious, though, test

712
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 1: you're talking about shaving this off. This is gonna be

713
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: a full shave or are we going to go down

714
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: to like go tee and sideburns here? Because every time

715
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: somebody talks about shortening the season, it also comes along

716
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: with the idea of bringing in a new tournament or

717
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 1: a play in tournament or something else that takes games

718
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 1: away from the regular season and then adds games in

719
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 1: this other pool of stuff. So I mean, you are

720
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 1: saving games, but not really right.

721
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 2: I'm totally fine just shaving the season. Shave it, just

722
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 2: shave it. There doesn't need to be a tournament. Yeah,

723
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 2: I think you just lose a few games it. And

724
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 2: I don't want to belittle the idea that guys just

725
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 2: don't need to play when they don't want, because yes,

726
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:34,959
Speaker 2: fans should be able to pay for tickets and expect

727
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 2: that Steph Curry is playing. And that's why I think

728
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 2: that there's a balancing act here. And I don't I

729
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 2: don't need to see I don't. We've all talked about

730
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 2: the in season tournament and whether that or not that

731
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 2: would work. I don't. I think just shaving games is

732
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 2: the solution.

733
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 3: Speaking of shaven, I'm not doing it right now. Guys.

734
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 3: You should see me no more TV. This is the

735
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 3: best my beard has ever looked in quite frankly, ever,

736
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 3: going to look it ain't gonna get any better than

737
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 3: this is. I keep joking that I'm dressing up as

738
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 3: Paul Pierce for Halloween. They got the real Piers crappy

739
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 3: beard going. It's like perfect, it's all patchy, but way

740
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 3: too long in spots.

741
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: That's awesome.

742
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 3: I gotta get myself a Pierce jersey and go for

743
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,399
Speaker 3: him for Halloween. Yeah, but yeah, you guys, you guys

744
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 3: would be proud. It's uh, it's like pretending to stroke it.

745
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 3: As I sit across from Santa Claus over there. It

746
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 3: was badass beard.

747
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 1: I thought somebody was just rubbing sandpaper.

748
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 2: You hear it? Can you?

749
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 3: Can you hear it? Can you hear that?

750
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: Oh?

751
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, we just got a noise complaint.

752
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,919
Speaker 3: Oh ok, sorry, I'll have to shave it all right.

753
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:47,399
Speaker 3: Our next question from Judson suck Fam long time, first time.

754
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 3: I love the basketball takes I get from you guys,

755
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 3: but have never been more excited than when I heard

756
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 3: skeets open the beach. To any questions at all, yes,

757
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 3: that's right, here's the question. Or hold on, tesk, this

758
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 3: one's for you. I've begun a compost. In the last

759
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,479
Speaker 3: few months up here in Iowa, I have a few

760
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 3: Bobon sized trees around the house, and it being autumn,

761
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:13,319
Speaker 3: I've accumulated more browns than I can handle. Never heard

762
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 3: leaves called browns.

763
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: That's usually a plumbing problem.

764
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 3: Any tips for getting my ratio more in line quickly

765
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,280
Speaker 3: and cheaply. Hope this makes sense to you. I also

766
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,280
Speaker 3: need guidance on keeping the compost alive during the winter

767
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 3: so it can thrive around the same time zach lavine

768
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 3: and boil or hoisting the lario b help me task,

769
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,239
Speaker 3: You're my only hope. This one again from Judson looking

770
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 3: for some compost advice.

771
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 2: A very very unique problem to have too many browns.

772
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 2: Quite often in the composting world, people don't have enough browns.

773
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 2: Now browns. They're not just leaves.

774
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,400
Speaker 3: Okay, let's gonna say, what are you talking about? What

775
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 3: is that?

776
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 2: It's shorthand for leaves, hey, straw, even newspaper things that

777
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:08,760
Speaker 2: are high in carbon. Basically, to make a compost degrade

778
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,720
Speaker 2: to break down, you need browns, and you need greens,

779
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 2: which are usually comprised of food scraps, so it's a

780
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 2: green browns. You're always you're always balancing, you're always bouncing,

781
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 2: and to have too many leaves. Imagine people in apartment buildings,

782
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 2: they're they're scoffing listening to this. They can't get their

783
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 2: hands on enough browns. They're dying for Judson's problem. So

784
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 2: all you have to do Judson's you just have to

785
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 2: save your browns. It sounds like you've got you've got

786
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 2: bobone sized trees, as you mentioned, sounds like you've got

787
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 2: some space to play. I think you can have some

788
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:46,799
Speaker 2: bins full, have bags full of leaves that you can

789
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 2: just let hang out there and just add as needed

790
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:50,279
Speaker 2: well tasks.

791
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 3: Why did you take down your bobons then you had

792
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 3: some nice bobon sized trees, the ever giving you the

793
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 3: browns my Bobona?

794
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah right, I had to take out some trees.

795
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 2: They had some mutation issues they had they had some problems.

796
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 1: Browns were turning greens.

797
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 2: I don't know what color browns were, brown, jail and brown.

798
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 3: Now it's give me the compost bowl Lakers Celtics.

799
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 2: Yes, so even even coffee grinds are a great brown,

800
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 2: really great brown. Anyway, enough talk about that. Just hold

801
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,400
Speaker 2: on to your browns or go go go to an

802
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 2: apartment building where there's people composting who don't have enough brown.

803
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, make a buck. And what about like the keeping

804
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 3: it alive during the winter any I mean, I know

805
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 3: you don't really have winter in Atlanta.

806
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 2: So that's I don't know. I'm not a compost expert.

807
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 2: Keeping it alive during it is tough in the winter.

808
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,359
Speaker 2: Things don't degrade very the heat the sun is such

809
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 2: an accelerant for a compost, so it's tough. I don't

810
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 2: live in the north anymore. And uh, yeah, you.

811
00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 3: Weren't doing a ton of composting when you were here.

812
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 2: Oh no, just sprinkling. Good luck, Johnson, Luck, keep a

813
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:13,320
Speaker 2: surprise please, next question here, what's up double dinkers? Longtime

814
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 2: fan from Raleigh, North Carolina. With Jalen Brown locked up.

815
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 2: Let's say Hayward. Gordon Hayward plays well enough to start.

816
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 2: Could you see a trade with him and some youngins

817
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 2: for Steven Adams. Oh no, Let's say Gordon Hayward plays

818
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 2: well to start shooting up his trade value because you

819
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 2: see a trade with him and some youngins for Steven Adams.

820
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,320
Speaker 2: Adams would give the length to help guard the seventy

821
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 2: six ers at them or Bucks at the rim And

822
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 2: that's from Stevie Chills.

823
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,359
Speaker 3: Stevie Chills through Twitter dropping that one. So he is saying, Yeah,

824
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 3: now that they've got brown under contract, you gotta accumulate

825
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,400
Speaker 3: those browns, keep those browns as many Browns as possible.

826
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 3: That you've got Tatum, you've got Jaalen, and then now

827
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,720
Speaker 3: you've got and you of course still have Gordon Hayward.

828
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,840
Speaker 3: That that's just too many of the guys sort of

829
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,800
Speaker 3: play in the same position, and why not look to

830
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 3: move a guy like Hayward?

831
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,800
Speaker 2: Is that what I'm I think what he's saying is

832
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 2: I'd like to get rid of Gordon Hayward. Yeah. And

833
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 2: the problem with that is why would the Thunder take

834
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:08,799
Speaker 2: him on?

835
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:10,879
Speaker 3: Right? Right?

836
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:12,480
Speaker 2: It's a lot, it's a lot of bucks.

837
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:12,719
Speaker 3: Yeah.

838
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's making over thirty two million dollars. And I

839
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 2: can understand why he wants Stephen Adams back in a

840
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 2: trade who's making twenty five or twenty six. But their

841
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 2: contracts are essentially the same length at you know, two

842
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 2: years remaining on them. So I don't see that happening.

843
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 2: Even if you throw in some youngins, I think the

844
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:32,840
Speaker 2: Thunder would want more.

845
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 1: Not to mention there's the Hayward Brad Stevens connection. Hayward

846
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 1: was after Al Horford. Hayward was the first piece to

847
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 1: this new era of the Celtics, even before they brought

848
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 1: in Kyrie Irving. So I don't necessarily see Brad wanting

849
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 1: to move on from Gordon Hayward. But you can understand

850
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: the impulse in wanting to get another big guy to

851
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 1: the Celtics totally, and maybe maybe that would be a

852
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,719
Speaker 1: fun way to reunite Steven Adams and Ennis Cannon as well.

853
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,319
Speaker 1: But it just feels like the Celtics definitely do need

854
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 1: to upgrade their bigs positions. They haven't necessarily been a

855
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,920
Speaker 1: great rebounding team in the past. Steven Adams is a

856
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 1: great rebounder, gets the body on guys. He'll probably be

857
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 1: in the mix for a leading the league in rebounds

858
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,840
Speaker 1: now that Russell Westbrook's gone. So you can understand why

859
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 1: the Celtics would want another big guy, but it's tough

860
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 1: to see that trade necessarily working.

861
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 2: You mentioned a guy earlier, Trey, who's been added to

862
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 2: the Phoenix Suns just as a guy really that's filling

863
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,319
Speaker 2: a roster spot there. Aaron Baines, who is you know,

864
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 2: the Joel mb stopper of you know, previous Celtics lower

865
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 2: He could go back there in a trade. He's making

866
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,240
Speaker 2: only five million bucks. You throw a couple young ins

867
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 2: their way. The Sons are just trying to rebuild, as

868
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 2: are the Pelicans. But you know Steven Adams is too

869
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 2: big a name, not the Pelicans, the thunder excuse me.

870
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,320
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think that that could work. Somebody cheaper,

871
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 2: is all I'm saying.

872
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 3: Great question. All right, next one, Hey, guys, I think

873
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 3: your phone a Friend option on the new Trivia Show

874
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 3: should be the people have all your fans submit their

875
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,399
Speaker 3: phone numbers and you can just call us. I would

876
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,279
Speaker 3: love to be called. I would love to pick up

877
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 3: the phone. I would love to contribute to one of

878
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 3: your podcasts if you want to add me to the list,

879
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 3: assuming you take this idea, my number is one two

880
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 3: on five five three. We may have to bleep that out.

881
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 3: Maybe I'll get a call from you guys one day.

882
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 3: Love the new show. That's from Kevin. Thank you Kevin

883
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:25,399
Speaker 3: for the kind comment. It's not a bad idea. It's

884
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 3: not a bad idea. Yes, the Phone a Friend is

885
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,240
Speaker 3: supposed to be my friend. But maybe Kevin and I

886
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 3: could become friends. Maybe we have to become friends first

887
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,879
Speaker 3: actually for this to work. But what did you guys

888
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 3: were obviously for tasks and trade down there. What did

889
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 3: you guys think? I wanted to get your feedback. We

890
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 3: haven't really talked about the trivia show.

891
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 1: I love it, and I love the phone a friend lifeline,

892
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,399
Speaker 1: and I love that it is phoning one of your friends.

893
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: It could be any one of them. I like that

894
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:50,839
Speaker 1: I know your friends, which is good, and that I

895
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,359
Speaker 1: consider myself one of you. You might get a call,

896
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: might get a call someday, depending on what the topic is.

897
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:58,400
Speaker 1: That being said, this is a great wrinkle. Let's just

898
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 1: start randomly calling people who live into the show or

899
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: I guess skeets. It sounds like you're gonna drum up

900
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 1: a friendship here with Kevin. So shoot him a text message,

901
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 1: maybe send him a funny meme. Can really build that

902
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 1: relationship so we can be confident when we get him

903
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: on the phone that he's not going to be a fool.

904
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 2: I enjoy listening to people do trivia, which I don't know.

905
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 2: It sounds for an.

906
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 3: You were skeptical, You were skeptical skeptic.

907
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 4: JD was the biggest skeptic of them all, and I

908
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 4: love trivia, don't get me wrong, but I was just like, this, really,

909
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 4: people are going to be into it? Well apparently they are.

910
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 3: Yeah? Is that? People seemed seemed to enjoy the first

911
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 3: episode at least, and maybe it helped it was lead

912
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:36,760
Speaker 3: completely bombing.

913
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 4: The best part about that was before the show was like,

914
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,240
Speaker 4: he wanted me to drag it out because he thought

915
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 4: he was going to completely destroy it, and he really

916
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:49,920
Speaker 4: got his ass.

917
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 3: And shut We forgot before we started recording. He's like, yeah, yeah,

918
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 3: I won't answer too quick. Yeah, because what we wanted

919
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 3: this to breathe a little bit, He le saying it

920
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 3: was like the time when he did the pick and

921
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 3: payoff with the Hot Peppers. Yeah, when he was just like,

922
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 3: no big deal this Peppers, It'll be easy, and then

923
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 3: he nearly died live on air from those hot ones.

924
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 3: But thank you everyone for the kind words the tweets

925
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,920
Speaker 3: coming through about the trivia show. Who wants some Trivia?

926
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 3: I think we're gonna be running it back. We'll do

927
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 3: a couple more episodes. If there's someone you want, if

928
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 3: there's someone you'd like to here on the show to

929
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 3: be the contestant at them on Twitter. Let me know.

930
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:28,759
Speaker 3: You know, it's open to everyone. We just started with

931
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 3: Lee because it was sort of the he was the

932
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 3: guinea pig. Yeah, but let us know who you want

933
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:34,880
Speaker 3: to hear on. Who wants some trivia?

934
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 2: Are you sticking to sports, sticking to the ball?

935
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that will be at least to begin with. Yeah,

936
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 3: there will always be a theme to each trivia show,

937
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 3: but it will Yeah, it'll be tied in some way

938
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:52,439
Speaker 3: to basketball. Yeah, I think so. I've got one sort

939
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 3: of in the can already, but I just need to

940
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:56,799
Speaker 3: wait for Ben Simmons to hit a three in the

941
00:43:56,800 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 3: regular season. There's a little tease for you. There's a

942
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 3: little teeth hit one in preseason, but I'm hoping he

943
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 3: hits one someone early here in the regular season.

944
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 2: All right, next question here. Hey, guys, minus Matdio, I

945
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 2: miss you. I've been living in England for the last

946
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 2: nine years and it's been tough not watching basketball on TV.

947
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 2: I've been listening to you since the TBJ days and

948
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 2: that helps. But now I'm thinking of finally subscribing to

949
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,919
Speaker 2: NBA League Pass. They have a new option this year

950
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 2: of a three game choice which gives me any three

951
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 2: games per month for the entire season. Three games a month.

952
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:30,280
Speaker 3: That's crazy.

953
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:33,239
Speaker 1: The real thing that's probably you like basketball but not

954
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:33,919
Speaker 1: too much.

955
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,720
Speaker 3: I know, JD. You got to move to English.

956
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 4: Well it's too too many.

957
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:44,759
Speaker 2: But yeah, Ed goes on to say, this is the

958
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,240
Speaker 2: perfect amount for me. But now I have to figure

959
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 2: out my strategy for picking those games. You guys watch

960
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:51,840
Speaker 2: a lot of basketball. What advice would you give me?

961
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,760
Speaker 2: Bad teams early since their games won't matter late rookies

962
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,279
Speaker 2: later to see when they've figured it out a bit

963
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 2: help ed Ford Newcastle?

964
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:03,920
Speaker 3: Okay, hold on, hold on, So with this you know plan,

965
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 3: this NBA league pass plan, when does he have to

966
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 3: pick these games like at the start of every month?

967
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 3: Is to map out the whole year?

968
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the mystery. Is he picking a game for

969
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,439
Speaker 1: the third week of March right now? Who's gonna be good?

970
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 1: This is why we can't have load management. Because of

971
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: this three game plan, you gonna be able to confidently

972
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,360
Speaker 1: pick your one game you want to watch. But my

973
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:27,960
Speaker 1: advice would be, I mean, not knowing totally the scenario,

974
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 1: like does the guy have access to national games? And

975
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,919
Speaker 1: he just wants to dip his toe into a couple

976
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 1: of other teams pools. If so, you gotta avoid the

977
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,920
Speaker 1: big national teams. That's why I would focus on Denver, Dallas, Sacramento, Chicago,

978
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 1: and Brooklyn. They're not in the top ten in national

979
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,920
Speaker 1: TV games. So if you're seeing those games out at

980
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,360
Speaker 1: a bar at your buddy's house, or maybe you do

981
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 1: subscribe to the major channels, dip into these other teams

982
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:52,399
Speaker 1: as well.

983
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:55,280
Speaker 2: It's good advice, great advice.

984
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 3: Again, is this really real?

985
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:00,719
Speaker 1: I'm still confused by this or is that only England thing?

986
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:05,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is possible, It's very possible. But it's weird. Wow,

987
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,840
Speaker 3: how many people are possibly doing this plan. It's like

988
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 3: you're sort of either in on lead pass watching a

989
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,240
Speaker 3: bunch of games or you're not three games.

990
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like what if you mess up and you pick

991
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 1: two games that you really want to watch on the

992
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: same night, you're like, oh man, I'm flipping. I get

993
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 1: one more day with lead pass. That's a I guess

994
00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 1: it's a very customizable sort of thing.

995
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, tell us more, Ed, we need to know more

996
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 3: about this weird plan in Newcastle? You got going on?

997
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:34,799
Speaker 4: All right?

998
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 3: Our next one here. I've been calling Marvin Bagley the

999
00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,360
Speaker 3: bag Man for his whole rookie season, Yet when I

1000
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 3: check out his basketball reference page, there's nothing there. What

1001
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 3: I need to know is one, am I the only

1002
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:48,320
Speaker 3: one calling him the Bagman?

1003
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 1: Two?

1004
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:52,120
Speaker 3: If not, where did it come from? And three? If yes,

1005
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,880
Speaker 3: why isn't the bag Man you know on his basketball

1006
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 3: reference page? It deserves more airtime. It's a god teared nickname.

1007
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 3: This email from will see Well.

1008
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:05,719
Speaker 1: We'll see if it catches on.

1009
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 3: We dropped we already. We already called him the bag

1010
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 3: Man in a in a podcast earlier this week, and

1011
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 3: I know we slipped it in there when we were

1012
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 3: talking Bagley, so it people say it, but I have

1013
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:19,280
Speaker 3: no idea where it came from besides being a version

1014
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 3: of his last name.

1015
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,280
Speaker 2: Are the people who say it named Trey Lee, Tasks,

1016
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 2: Keats and j D. Because I don't know if it's

1017
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 2: happening outside our room.

1018
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:29,760
Speaker 3: You say we created the Bagman?

1019
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so wow. We talk about so much. Yeah,

1020
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 2: we come up with these little dumb, quirky names for guys.

1021
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 2: But I think it is a god to your nickname.

1022
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:42,440
Speaker 2: I think finally, you know we might be batting about

1023
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 2: ten one out of a thousand here, But I think

1024
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 2: I think this is a home run. I think we

1025
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:49,360
Speaker 2: slammed this one.

1026
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 3: So we're going to see this on basketball references.

1027
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:55,479
Speaker 2: I think so page. Yeah, I'm crediting us, But listen,

1028
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 2: we get a lot of emails about nicknames. Nickname this guy,

1029
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:02,480
Speaker 2: these guys, this guy needs a nickname. He's boring. But

1030
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 2: I think we finally got a good email.

1031
00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 1: So hold on.

1032
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 3: Then you're you are saying that we called Bagley the

1033
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,439
Speaker 3: bag man last year at some point, and then we'll

1034
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 3: heard that you started calling him the bagman all year?

1035
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,840
Speaker 3: All right, I think possible's I can't keep tracking what

1036
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:17,439
Speaker 3: we say.

1037
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 1: Well, let's keep laying the groundwork now because he'll be

1038
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: up for his rookie extension and not too long, and

1039
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,319
Speaker 1: when he signs that big contract, everybody will be wanting

1040
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 1: to call him the baggage.

1041
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, you're right, he'll secure the bag.

1042
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:35,880
Speaker 2: Or spureau agnew next question here. Life is almost complete

1043
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:37,839
Speaker 2: with you back on the air, But one thing I'm

1044
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 2: missing is the survivor chat. Are you.

1045
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 1: We must be?

1046
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 3: We must be this podcast?

1047
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on Island of the Idols? I

1048
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 2: guess that's a show. Personally, I haven't picked my favorite

1049
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 2: person or moment yet, but I am waiting for someone

1050
00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,839
Speaker 2: to chuckle at the over the top statue shoes. Their

1051
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:05,879
Speaker 2: statues keep going. Sandra and Boston Rob. Thanks, that's from

1052
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 2: Steve and Portland. Let's talk Survivor. Maybe you guys are

1053
00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 2: maybe maybe you guys will have your own episode of

1054
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:13,160
Speaker 2: Survivor chat.

1055
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, you got a lot of land, a.

1056
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,720
Speaker 2: Lot of podcast, big talker.

1057
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,759
Speaker 3: Just to quickly explain it to you, it's ask the

1058
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 3: reason it's called Island of Idols, Like that's the name

1059
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 3: of this season, right, It's because do you know, does

1060
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:30,319
Speaker 3: Boston Rob ring a bell at all to you?

1061
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:34,839
Speaker 2: Of course, yes, I work with you, guys, Yes, fair

1062
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 2: the Island of the Idols or Island of Idols?

1063
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:39,880
Speaker 3: Island of the Idols.

1064
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:43,360
Speaker 2: Because you dropped the This isn't no ducks. Okay, no,

1065
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 2: we're dropping thus anyway, go ahead.

1066
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:47,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, So Boston Rob, he's won it before, so he's

1067
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,399
Speaker 3: an idol in the Survivor World. Sandra is the only

1068
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,840
Speaker 3: person to ever win the game twice, so she's definitely

1069
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 3: an idol. And they are there, They're not on the

1070
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 3: same Island as the contestants, but they're big basically there

1071
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:05,239
Speaker 3: as sort of coaches is so to speak. Where you know,

1072
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 3: it's fairly early still in this season. We're only like

1073
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,960
Speaker 3: four or five episodes in, but there's a way to

1074
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:11,920
Speaker 3: go to them and they teach you sort of like

1075
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,520
Speaker 3: a Survivor life skill and they can then there's the

1076
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:17,279
Speaker 3: possibility of winning like a like an extra vote or

1077
00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 3: an immunity and stuff like that. Like that's what's going on.

1078
00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:23,080
Speaker 3: That's that's why Sandra and Robert. But there are these

1079
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,520
Speaker 3: giant like what appear to be I don't know, like

1080
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 3: thirty foot high us. Yeah, huge heads of their of

1081
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:32,560
Speaker 3: their heads.

1082
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 4: Made of wood or something. Yeah, slatted together.

1083
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:36,879
Speaker 2: Cool.

1084
00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 4: No, it looks corny as hell, Yes, I mean I do,

1085
00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:45,239
Speaker 4: but I love it. It's weird how Survivor does that.

1086
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 4: They make the When they showed, you know, promos for it,

1087
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,799
Speaker 4: I was just like, what is this? What are they doing?

1088
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:55,240
Speaker 4: They finally jumped the shark or whatever you want to say.

1089
00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 3: But I'm I'm loving it. Yeah, I love it. I

1090
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 3: love Trey or are you a Fit? And so far?

1091
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 3: Of violand of the idols.

1092
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:03,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I've enjoyed it.

1093
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:03,560
Speaker 4: I was.

1094
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,200
Speaker 1: I was, like JD, a little skeptical of Sandra and

1095
00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 1: Boston robbing in the mix. I do think it's funny

1096
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 1: that every single episode they have to mention that they

1097
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,600
Speaker 1: cannot win this season because everybody assume they're just gonna

1098
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:15,480
Speaker 1: come in the game and win. So they're like, we

1099
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 1: cannot win. I'm telling you, we cannot win. But I

1100
00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:21,920
Speaker 1: loved having them there for sitting in on tribal console

1101
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,200
Speaker 1: watching from the spy shack. Ye. I like that getting

1102
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:26,480
Speaker 1: some chime ins from a couple of legend be like

1103
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,319
Speaker 1: Bill Russell watching the NBA final.

1104
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:31,080
Speaker 3: They're bothing his device. They're both hilarious too. Yeah, like

1105
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:34,560
Speaker 3: their TV gold. I mean, they do add to the show,

1106
00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 3: like in terms of the humor and just what they

1107
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 3: can bring to it.

1108
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:40,200
Speaker 4: It's they're like commentators aside from Jeff, you know what

1109
00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 4: I mean. Like they they're like you know, Marvin Reggie

1110
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:47,399
Speaker 4: on the sidelines. Ye's just they bring a whole sort

1111
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 4: of fresh new take to what's happening.

1112
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:50,359
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1113
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:53,600
Speaker 4: I like their little comments on people coming in and

1114
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:55,799
Speaker 4: they're meeting them for the first time, and.

1115
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:58,799
Speaker 3: They're almost an extension of us the viewer, sort of

1116
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 3: as we watch the show and they're like, oh, well

1117
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:02,600
Speaker 3: that's a dumb move or oh like you know, like

1118
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,120
Speaker 3: because they're just throwing in those little quips. So yeah,

1119
00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:05,919
Speaker 3: so far, so good.

1120
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:08,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, keep pitching, guys. Task is beaming right now.

1121
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 2: I'm enjoying this.

1122
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:10,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1123
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 2: I like that.

1124
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:13,719
Speaker 1: I'm actually this is gonna shock you. Task. Now, it's

1125
00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:16,560
Speaker 1: not the time to get in. There are eleven NBA

1126
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:18,720
Speaker 1: games tonight. It's the first Wednesday night of the season.

1127
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,960
Speaker 1: Get in tomorrow morning. He'll be on demand.

1128
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1129
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:22,560
Speaker 3: That's a good idea.

1130
00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 2: It's a good here's a here's another idea. Since I'm

1131
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:29,160
Speaker 2: such a talker, how about skeets. You get Boston Rob

1132
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:33,320
Speaker 2: on the show? Done and the trivia is about Survivor.

1133
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:35,840
Speaker 3: Oh wow, wow, I mean even.

1134
00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:38,799
Speaker 2: About his season. Yeah, because because he probably you know,

1135
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,600
Speaker 2: is not as well versed as you are in terms

1136
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:45,160
Speaker 2: of the history of Survivor the entire catalog, but just

1137
00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:45,800
Speaker 2: his season.

1138
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 3: Well, there's a well, Task, there's another Rob that played Survivor.

1139
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 3: He played twice, Rob Saestrino, and he is in the

1140
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:56,239
Speaker 3: podcasting game. He's got more podcasts we do. And Rob

1141
00:52:56,280 --> 00:53:01,239
Speaker 3: has a podcast he does have. I believe he still

1142
00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:04,319
Speaker 3: has it's some sort of trivia like about Survivor this

1143
00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:07,520
Speaker 3: week it's called and they look back at previous Survivor

1144
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,239
Speaker 3: episodes and they basically do a trivia show. So it's

1145
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:11,160
Speaker 3: sort of, you know, sort of what you're saying, it

1146
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:13,480
Speaker 3: already happens. Rob has a posicve, they got a million podcasts,

1147
00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:15,400
Speaker 3: They do great work. But I do think Trey you

1148
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,879
Speaker 3: said like, yeah, they're not gonna come into the game,

1149
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,319
Speaker 3: and they really wanted to stress that because in Big

1150
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:22,719
Speaker 3: Brother they had something similar where in the house they

1151
00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:25,720
Speaker 3: had like four legends and they were coaches at the beginning,

1152
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 3: and then you know, a couple of weeks in it

1153
00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:30,920
Speaker 3: was like they're now in the game and can win

1154
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,759
Speaker 3: the money too. So they don't, you know, they don't

1155
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:35,239
Speaker 3: want that to happen here with Survivor, and I think

1156
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,080
Speaker 3: that's the right move. But I wouldn't be surprised if

1157
00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:43,320
Speaker 3: Sandra and Rob, like in the finale, talk to the

1158
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:45,279
Speaker 3: the jury. I wonder if they're like and they do

1159
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 3: this in Big Brother, doctor Will comes in and he

1160
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 3: talks to them about like, oh, who you thinking about

1161
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:50,640
Speaker 3: voting for? What type of game have they played? Blah

1162
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 3: blah blah, blah blah. I wonder if they'll do that

1163
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:54,799
Speaker 3: with Sandra and Rob. I sort of think they might

1164
00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 3: sort of bounce off like who you're thinking, what did

1165
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 3: they do? What did they how did they play? As possible?

1166
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:03,719
Speaker 3: So far, so good? Oh man, feels good to talk

1167
00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:07,840
Speaker 3: Survivor again. The NBA season truly hasn't started until we

1168
00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:11,200
Speaker 3: start talking about Survivor. And some people can really tune

1169
00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 3: us out for the final five or six minutes. So

1170
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:15,960
Speaker 3: that's this episode just likely. That's why we put it

1171
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:18,640
Speaker 3: at the end. Don't you worry? Yeah, we can call
