Same thing, right, Yeah, 4 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: that same thing. They both deluged that both are gonna 5 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: tell omen it's motherfucking Jack used just smell like you 6 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: would just pour the weed into your backpack with no 7 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: zip blocking, nothing and just walk on the plane with 8 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: that brown Louis van I've grown right now, you're just 9 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: put in your pocket. Welcome back to another episode of 10 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: What's Burning. Let's get right to it. Who's hot? Who's not? Jack? 11 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: As I predicted at all start that the Celtics would 12 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 1: get hot second half of the season. They're ten and 13 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: three in their last thirteen games, top ten in offense 14 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: and defense. During that span, Tatum's averaging thirty points a game, 15 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: shooting fifty forty ninety uh Boston for the most part, 16 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: it's pretty healthy right now. Thoughts on um what they've 17 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: been doing uh thus far in the second half of 18 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: the season. Well, this is what we both said, you know, 19 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 1: we both said that this team was getting ready for 20 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs, and the coach and the coaches doing the 21 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: team is doing so well, the coach got a seventy 22 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: million out of there from a college team. So hey, man, hey, 23 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: these guys are all healthy. Like you said, Marcus smartest back, 24 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 1: this team has finally found their identity again and they 25 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: want to go into the playout playoffs rolling and they're 26 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: playing like man, they're gonna be a scary team. Yeah, no, 27 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: I completely agree. Um, I think they're gonna actually sneak 28 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: up and get that fourth seed. They're getting hot at 29 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: the right time secure that first round home court. But 30 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: Boston is one of those teams and the reason why 31 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: I love it because they've been battle Tester bro They've 32 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 1: been to the Eastern Finals Tator's rookie year against Braun. 33 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: They've been to the Eastern Finals last year against Miami. 34 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: This team knows what it takes. And I think the 35 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: X factors are gonna be Kimba Walker's consistency. They need 36 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: that third score. You know what you're getting at the 37 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: Tatum and Brown, Um, they're Biggs are playing well, the 38 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: role other role players are playing well. What's Kimba to 39 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: be able to give you? And he's gonna is he 40 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: gonna stay healthy? Um? And also one last thing, Brett 41 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: Stevens gets a seventy million dollar offer from a college job, 42 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: but they say they don't have enough money to pay kids. 43 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: But man, love of Boston is doing and excited to 44 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: see what they're gonna do come playoff time. Next up, 45 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: um jack A team you said at the beginning of 46 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: the season, ain't ship, ain't never go be ship. The 47 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: New York Knicks have caught a little bit of fire. Uh. 48 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: They won sixth straight. Uh. First six game winning streaks 49 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: is two thousand and fourteen. They went five hundred and 50 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: forty five games in between, at least a five game 51 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: winning streak, which is crazy. R J. Barrett is shooting 52 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: the ball streaming well from the three point line over 53 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: that stretch. Thoughts on the Knicks, it shines on the 54 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: Dog as every nine then Matt, Uh, My thoughts are 55 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: exact the same. Hell the puck bad News Baths won 56 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: six games in the row. So look, I knew round 57 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 1: it was gonna be good when he was in l A. 58 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: I just knew he didn't get the opportunity and the 59 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: time to be the player that he was. He's growing 60 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: in to beat quickly embared to young guards. They're gonna 61 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: be all right. But I know this team is not 62 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: gonna make no serious noise. Yeah, it's good for the 63 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: New York Knicks fans and for worldwide West and I'm 64 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: trying to get the Knicks organization going in the right direction. 65 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: But we all know that they're not gonna be a 66 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: championship team. No one's, no one, no soon, no no 67 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: excuse me, definitely not a championship team. But I think 68 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: it's gotta be baby steps because they've been dogshit stepping 69 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: in babyship for so long. It's gotta be baby steps 70 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 1: going forward. And I think, you know, obviously making the 71 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: playoffs is a great first step. Um, I don't think 72 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: Tibodeau is getting enough credit for what he's been able 73 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: to do turn around, the mentality of this roster, in 74 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: the way they approach games, are out there playing defense. 75 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: I loved the Derrick Rose trade has paid off well 76 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: for them. He's been playing really well. So it's fun 77 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: to see Julius Randall, I mean, although he won't be 78 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: can definitely be in that m v P conversation with 79 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: the numbers he's been putting up this season. So love 80 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: to see it. Um, you know, making the playoffs is 81 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: just the first step, you know, winning a couple of 82 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: games in that first round and knowing you have something 83 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: to build on. This kind of where I see this team, 84 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: but happy for them and um, you know, love with 85 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: Julia Julius Rand has been able to do this season. 86 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: Continue on with Who's Hot. The light skin Assassin Steph 87 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: Curry has been on a tear over his last eight games, 88 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: averaging nearly forty one points a game, ten straight thirty 89 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 1: point games, um, tying Kobe for such streaks of players 90 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: thirty three and older. So this dude is on a 91 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: goddamn tear right now, and it's beautiful to watch. Thoughts 92 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: on your former teammate, although brief because you didn't believe 93 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: in him. Ah, that's crazy, right, I had no idea 94 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: he was gonna be there. I had no idea it 95 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 1: was gonna be the chef. But it's funny before you 96 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: get saved. But remember how crazy the fans were when 97 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 1: they decided to trade Monte and build with Steph, Like 98 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: the Warrior. Fans went crazy, but they saw something. Man, 99 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: hats off to him. They went crazy. But he you said, 100 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: this being the season and Steff was gonna have to 101 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: have a spectacular damn man, unbelievable year for this team 102 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: and even being the player hunt and uh, and they've 103 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: still been dealing with injury and he's still stepping up 104 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: to the place, still has his team in a good position, 105 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: a better position that they thought they was gonna be in. 106 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: So Man, hats off the stuff. One of the game changes, man, 107 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 1: one of the culture changes, one of the best three 108 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: points shoot of all time. And he's just doing what 109 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: he do And just the fact that he's doing it 110 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: with all with all adversity, with guys continuously to go 111 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: and go down and not having Clay, it says even 112 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 1: more about them. Yeah. I mean I said at the 113 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: beginning of the season, we're gonna get to see his 114 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: version of James Harden basketball, you know what I mean. 115 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: When he's the one, two and third option on that team. 116 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, he's been shooting the ball extremely well, Uh, 117 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: putting up a good shooting numbers as well as along 118 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: with points. And it's just special to see. Man. I 119 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: hope people appreciate what they're getting to see this year, 120 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: because I think so often people want to hate or 121 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: make this this and talk shit instead of just appreciate. Man, 122 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: this dude is putting on a great show his team, 123 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: although you know, struggle there in the tense slot. They'll 124 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: most likely be in the play in situation. But just 125 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: the way he's been able to shoot the ball. Uh. 126 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: That Boston game the other night with him and Tatum 127 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: going back and forth, man was was one for the ages. 128 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: So UH, man, salute Steph. Keep doing anything bro. Now 129 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: shifting to the week ahead, we got a nice week 130 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: of basketball starting on Tuesday with the Clippers Blazers. If 131 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: the season ended now, this would be the first round matchup. Uh. 132 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,359 Speaker 1: Clippers are eight and one. Uh since Rondo stepped on 133 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: the court for them. They just got Kauai back, and 134 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: although Rondo's numbers aren't staggering, he is at about six 135 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: and a half points a game, five assists in eighteen minutes. 136 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: I just think his presence completely changes UH this Clippers 137 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: style of play, um Jack. In a seven game series, 138 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: healthy Blazers, healthy Clippers, you got, I think it's a 139 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: toss up man, Um. Yeah, I can't really give any 140 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: team the head of without watching them play. You know, 141 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: we man, You know any team can win in the 142 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: seven game series, and each team has guy that can 143 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: win a whole series, let alone win the game. So, um, 144 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: it'll be great for basketball. It'll be exciting to watch. 145 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: You have Paul George and Kauai going against Dame, Lillett 146 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: and UM and c J and then the big guys. 147 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: You know, I think on the big guys side, if 148 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: if Nurk is healthy, I think UM Portland has the 149 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: edge and the paint. So we'll see how that would 150 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: play out. But I can't give it to either team. 151 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: That's something I want to see. We're gonna have to see. 152 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: And I completely agree, and I hate that this is 153 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: most likely gonna be a first round matchup. There's some 154 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: space in between each uh spots going uh as we 155 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: continue forward, because to me, these are both teams that 156 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: can get hot in battle in that Western Conference finals 157 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: against anybody. Uh So I hate to see it in 158 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: the first round, but it's gonna be great basketball. And 159 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: I agree. You know, Dame has been doing this thing 160 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: all season. CJ's back in rhythm, this team is finally 161 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: getting healthy. Mellow has been hot to pick up the 162 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: trade they got from Toronto, has been playing well, Big 163 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: Fellas coming back, and then again the Clippers, like we 164 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: spoke on last week, they've just been floating under the 165 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: radar this year getting everything together. Paul George has been 166 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: as hot as he could be, and we'll touch on 167 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: him a little later. Um, this team looks really good. 168 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: So this is gonna be a great first round matchup 169 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: if this is what it ends up being. Moving along Wednesday, 170 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: Hawks Knicks playoff implications. Both still battling for seating. This 171 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: could be the four five match up, which would be interesting. 172 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: Both teams are hot. Who do you feel like we'll 173 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: finish higher in the standings? Um, another, It's hard to tell. Again, 174 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: both teams have great coaches that's found a way to 175 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: motivate them. Um and uh. I think both teams are 176 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: finally started to coming to their own I can't. I 177 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: would have to say, being in New York, you know, 178 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: only a half game apart, Atlanta's only a half game 179 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: up on Boston and the Knicks. Yeah, I see, I 180 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: see Atlanta fall and I see Boston getting ahead of them. 181 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: So but if they if they had to play, I 182 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: think it would be in a to toss him. Like 183 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: I said, both teams are still new to this. Both 184 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: teams are still trying to, you know, see what the 185 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: playoffs is like, and both have new coaches that's finally 186 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: starting to motivate the team. So I think they're in 187 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: the same spot. Yeah, I agree, Um, but I also 188 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: think Boston's gonna get that four season, which would be 189 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: unfortunate because I thought this would have been a cool 190 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: first round matchup because then one of these boat one 191 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: of these young teams had to go to the second 192 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: round because someone is gonna win it. But I I 193 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: think Boston's gonna slide into that fourth spot. So what's 194 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: gonna mess this up? But you know, both teams again 195 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: heading in the right direction. Nate mc millan has done 196 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: a great job since going over to the Hawks. We 197 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: spoke on the Knicks earlier. What Thibodeau has been able 198 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: to get those guys that encouraged to do so. Again, 199 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: both teams, you know, trending in the right direction. And 200 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: and this is gonna be a feel out process. This 201 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: is gonna be a good taste of what these young 202 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: teams are gonna get to see in the playoffs for 203 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: the first time. So agreed. Continuing to look ahead Wednesday, 204 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: Nuggets Blazers a potential four or five matchup. Obviously, Jamal 205 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: Burry went down with the torn A c L. The 206 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: Nuggers are two in l since he's gone down. How 207 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: crucial is the Aaron Gordon pick up? And what do 208 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: you see from Denver because we both agreed, um, you know, 209 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: with Javal being underappreciated and Aaron Gordon go to that 210 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: team that they were definitely right in that talk to 211 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: be representing the Western Conference. You know what their management 212 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: is looking like Janus right now because having Aaron Aaron 213 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: Gordon for that, for that security blanket after that injury, 214 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: I think it's a blessing for them. And he is 215 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 1: really gonna I think I have to say this, man, 216 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: he's gonna have a big playoff run because this is 217 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: this is his first time where he's on the team 218 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,319 Speaker 1: like this in the Western Conferences. New to him. The 219 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: basketball is different on the West Side, as you know. 220 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: And I think a new life is going to come 221 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: into Gordon. And I'm excited the fact that now I'm 222 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: not excited the fact that Murray got hurt, but I'm 223 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: excited the fact that his role is gonna pick up 224 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: on his team. And uh, I think it's just the 225 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: right time. Yeah, I mean, he's gonna have to play good, 226 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: big for them in the playoffs along with Michael Porter Jr. 227 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: I think both these young players are gonna really find 228 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: their owned um this round in the playoffs. But I 229 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,719 Speaker 1: don't think you can. You know, Jamal Murray was incredible 230 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: last year in the bubble um in the playoffs, so 231 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: you're not gonna be able to replace that. I don't 232 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: be honest with you. I really don't see then making 233 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: a strong push um. You know, Like I said before 234 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: that I think Jamal Murray and injury is gonna be 235 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: too big to overcome. I would love to see them 236 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: do it. I just honestly don't think they have enough 237 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: firepower now. But you know, if you get if Porter Jr. 238 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 1: And Aaron Gordon can each give you twenty a game 239 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, would joker? Uh? You know, you never 240 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: know what this team can do. But it's good lot. 241 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 1: It's gonna be riding on up. These young wing players shoulders. 242 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: They don't make them like you know more man, it's 243 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: a lot of light skin over there. They ain't got 244 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: tattoos and stuff like you, so they gotta get in 245 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: the top. Hey, they still go hard though they go 246 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: on Uh Sixers and Bucks score off twice this week 247 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: Thursday and Saturday, a potential second round or Eastern Conference 248 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: Final matchup. Sixers only game and a half ahead of 249 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 1: Brooklyn to keep the home court throughout. Milwaukee's only two 250 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: and a half games behind the Nets, UH and still 251 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: have two games face to face. Uh. This top three 252 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 1: seating UH in the East is is gonna jump around? 253 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: Before Saul said and done? How do you see it 254 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: finishing out in one, two and three in the East? Man, 255 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: I had I had the Nets finished, not at one, 256 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: but you know it's that Katie then went down again 257 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: with a thick contusion and um and Bead has came 258 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: back with something on his mind. So I I see it. 259 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 1: I see it staying uh six is six is one, 260 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: Nets two and Milwaukee three. I think that the Philadelphia 261 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: seven six is gonna ride this thing out and they're 262 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: really gonna take off going into the playoffs. Yeah, I agree. Again, 263 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 1: you know, we both had the Nets eventually making the 264 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: rise to number one. But again to me, it doesn't 265 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: really matter much. You know, although Philly's record is is 266 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 1: not very good on the road, to have home court 267 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: I think means a lot more to them throughout. UM, 268 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: but it's gonna be I agree with you. I think 269 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna be Philly, Nets, uh, Milwaukee, and then Boston 270 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: around out that top four. But I mean, anybody can 271 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: get hot at the right time in that Eastern conference 272 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: and represent the East, you know. Although we're giving the 273 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: nod to Brooklyn when they're healthy. Like you said in 274 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: beatas on the mission, doc has these dudes playing great. Uh. 275 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: Ben Simmons out here talking big ship to everyone. I 276 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: love to see it. Uh. You know, Milwaukee has just 277 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: quietly continued to stay consistent. Jannie knows all this regular 278 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: ship season, the ship doesn't matter. We need to see 279 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 1: it in the playoffs. And then again, Boston is getting 280 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,719 Speaker 1: hot with you know, behind Tatum m Brown. So man, 281 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a fun playoffs. I'm excited to 282 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: get this ship going. Yeah, and I want the Nets 283 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: to play Philadelphia because you're talking about you the deepense you, 284 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: the deepens and stop for the year. Man. Carrie had 285 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: thirty that night and Katie gonna give you thirty two. 286 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: So I don't want to hear all that. Hey, but 287 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: keep talking your ship, bro, keep talking to your ship though. 288 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: We like that. Yeah, I love it. Finishing out the 289 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: week ahead, we have the Phoenix Suns, who uh this season, 290 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: where are my surprise team? And they have not let 291 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,719 Speaker 1: me down? Shout out to Book and CEP. They're only 292 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: a game and a half behind Utah Jack for that 293 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 1: number one seed. We saw Donovan Mitchell go down with 294 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: an ankle injury. Not not sure how long he's gonna 295 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: be out. They could potentially move to this one seed, 296 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: but they're definitely gonna be tested this week coming up 297 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: um as they play the Sixers Wednesday, the Celtics Thursday 298 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: in the Nets, Sunday, all on the road. Uh, this 299 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 1: is gonna be a great test and I think um 300 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: Man Phoenix has exceeded all expectations. I don't give a 301 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: funk what you say. If Steve Nash can be m 302 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: v p uh when he made his running Phoenix when 303 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: guys are averaging thirty, you could put Chris Paul right 304 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: in that mix too, because they're doing similar situation, similar 305 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: things to the same franchise. And like I said, this 306 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: is a team that has been in the gutter until 307 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: c became and revitalized it. So thoughts on their you know, 308 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: three game upcoming East Coast swing, but just the overall 309 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: UM season for the Suns. Well one, I agree with you, 310 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: uh CP should definitely be in MVP race, and if 311 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: Steve Nash can win two, he definitely can win one. 312 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: But we know that ain't gonna happen. We know what 313 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: that ain't gonna have, we know what time it is. 314 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: But anyway, it's gonna be good for him, you know, 315 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: going into the end of the season and the way 316 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: they played this is some great test for them going 317 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: into the playoffs. I think they can. They probably can 318 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: pull out a couple of these games, but it's gonna 319 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: be tough on the role because the teams they're playing, 320 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: the Celts and especially Philadelphia that roller right now and 321 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: they're not. I don't think they're gonna let them come 322 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: in and uh and get a win and Nets they 323 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: probably can get that. I think that's the game they 324 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: probably can get because that team is still kind of 325 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: beat up and James and Katie might be out. But 326 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia game, in the Selfis game, is gonna be 327 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: tough for him. Yeah, I mean, I I just get 328 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: how that, like everything means, every game means so much 329 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: to this team, and I respect it, and you know, 330 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: I think it's because they haven't won in such a 331 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: long time, so this winning thing is new to them, 332 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: and it's fun. I mean, when you win, it's fun, 333 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: you know. And Devin Booker's never had since he's been 334 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: in Phoenix, hasn't been on a winning team. So these 335 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: guys are playing hard on both ends of the floor 336 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: every night. You know. Do I think they'll do anything 337 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: in the in the playoffs? You never know. I really 338 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: don't see them making a strong run as good as 339 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: they played in the regular season. I hate saying this 340 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: because Chris is my dog, but I just don't think 341 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: they have enough. I would love to see him do 342 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: it and definitely gonna be rooting for him, but it's 343 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: it's gonna I think it's gonna be tough sled when 344 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: it comes to the playoffs. But man, hats off to 345 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: what they've been doing, and I hope they could prove 346 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: me wrong. Um, and I would love to see them 347 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: grab that number one seed in the West of beyonest 348 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: with too though, and when the Western car uh you know, 349 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: win the division. Now we got on the radar presented 350 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: you by DraftKings Simmons and go bet are I g 351 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: ship talking about this defensive player of the Year. Uh? 352 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: You know Ben said Gobert guarded him when they played. 353 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: He dropped forty two and he's not even supposed to 354 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: be an offensive player. Gobert responds with confidence is silent, 355 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: Insecurities are allowed. DraftKings has the odds on either one 356 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: of these guys winning defensive Player of the Year at 357 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: go Bear minus three thirty five and Simmons plus two 358 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: thirty both teams at the top of the league in defense. 359 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: Thoughts of them ship talking back and forth and in 360 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: your opinion, who's gonna win Defensive Player of the Year. 361 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 1: I love the back and forth. I think Simmons is 362 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: gonna win it. I mean, Simmons even was willing to 363 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: take a jab at himself to prove his point, which 364 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: I love. I can't even shoot score Drill couldn't hear 365 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: the house if I was in the kitchen. But I 366 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: gave him forty two and he's supposed to be the 367 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: defensive player of the year. You're right. I just sit 368 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 1: here and think about what with Tim Duncan and them 369 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: do to Rudy Gobert. And you want to be you 370 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,360 Speaker 1: want to be defensive player of the year, You're not. 371 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: You get dominated by mb every time. Every time, So 372 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: I'm going Simmons. I think Simmons has a heart at 373 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: task with chasing these small guards around, but he's figured 374 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: it out. Okay, y'all saying I'm not an offensive player, 375 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: I can't do this. I'm just gonna be a defensive stop. 376 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna use my length, I'm gonna use my speed, 377 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna use all my athleticism and be one of 378 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 1: the best defensive players ever. And I'm glad he I'm 379 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: glad he's starting to go into that role. Yeah, I mean, 380 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 1: he's a monster Dan. The reason why I give him 381 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: an edge to it's because he can potentially guard everybody 382 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: on the floor. Simmons is six ten guarding, like you said, 383 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: anywhere from Kyrie to having then around and guard Gobert. 384 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: Although Gobert is not much of an offensive threat, that's 385 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: just the versatility of it of Simmons. So I agree, 386 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: I think Ben should get the nod. Uh. You know, 387 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: you never know how it goes. But I like the talking. 388 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: I definitely like the talking, and um, I think it's 389 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 1: good for the game. So we'll see who ends up 390 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 1: winning Defensive Player of the Year. But you know, my vote, 391 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 1: if I had one which I never will, uh will 392 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 1: go to Simmons, never will, never will. That's keep it real. 393 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: Fan questions. Now we're gonna get started with jin underscore Ashton. 394 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on d Wade buying into jazz ownership? 395 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: Can't hear the word the name Ashton, And I say 396 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: it was up to young Ashton born man. Shout out 397 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: to the home man, shout out a little ash But 398 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 1: check this out. Dope. I think it's dope. I think 399 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: it would have been even more dope if he was 400 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: if it was the Miami Heat. You know what I'm saying. 401 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: But the fact that you understand that, hey, we've been 402 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: labeled at such and such and such and such for 403 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 1: a long time. We need to change this around, get 404 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: a new face to this thing, bring some color to 405 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,199 Speaker 1: this thing, especially with everything going on. So I love it. 406 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: I applaud utah. I'm happy for the way that's our 407 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: boy and hey flash from going to another journey in 408 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: his life. Yeah, man, I love seeing just us represented 409 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: in these kinds of spaces. We've got a chance to 410 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 1: talk to Renee Montgomery obviously, uh, you know, owner of 411 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: the partial owner of the Dream. Now you see d 412 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: Wade in Utah. Obviously we would have loved to see 413 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,679 Speaker 1: him in Miami. Somehow that didn't work out. But I 414 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: mean he's an owner of an NBA team now, and 415 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 1: I mean that's the ultimate goal. And I'm sure that 416 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: was the ultimate goal for him. So it's a beautiful 417 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: thing to see. And I couldn't agree more with getting 418 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: color and diversity in management over there, you know, especially 419 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: you know, with everything that's going on today and and 420 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: and and there's some controversy that you know that surrounds 421 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: D Wade from you know, from the fathering situation with 422 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: you know, with his daughter now too. So it's just 423 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: interesting to see the dynamic that brings someone amazing as 424 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: d Wade to your organization can really start to, you know, 425 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: change the the way people view you because it has 426 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: been negative. Like I said, we we both love that 427 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: Utah fan base, but it is racist sometimes at some point. 428 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: You know, there were times when we were called nigger 429 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 1: while we were playing, you know what I mean. So 430 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: again to that add someone like d Wade uh in 431 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: today's climate, um, with all that you know, amazing things 432 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,959 Speaker 1: he brings with him, I think is only a plus. 433 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,479 Speaker 1: So shout out d Wight fan question number two, Andre 434 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: dot Sagia, comey, what was the most mem is that?

Mmmmm yellow man 442 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 1: yellow taped him. I ain't seen him since uh c 443 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: CP through a lob to DeAndre and for some reason 444 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: Brandon Knight tried to block it. And it was the 445 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: craziest shit I've ever seen on the court. And if 446 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: you got to see that video. At first, people never 447 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: caught it, but I think it's been ran so much 448 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: like as soon as I see it, I jump up 449 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 1: and cover my face and I run off the court, 450 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: run down the court because I don't want to be 451 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: questioned involved in the murder. You know, I know what 452 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: happens to these snitches out here. Actually it's a new 453 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,120 Speaker 1: day now, but I just didn't want to get questioned 454 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 1: for seeing my homeboy killer man on the basketball court. 455 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: So that was my most memorable moment on the court. 456 00:21:55,800 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: Oh man, Uh, my most member a moment on the 457 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: court probably would be ah. I would say those seven 458 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:14,120 Speaker 1: threes in game six, and we believe yeah gets Dallas 459 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: beat came to him before the game saying he didn't 460 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: have it, he didn't feel good, and for some reason, 461 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: I just I knew I had to have a big game. 462 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: I wasn't expecting to go out there hit seven threes, 463 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: but as I hit one, Matt kept throwing me the 464 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: ball every playdown court, from out the bounds, everywhere, and 465 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: I just kept shooting it. Man. But that's my moment. 466 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 1: Most memorable moments. Seven threes in the playoffs in a 467 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: the side and game. I want to say I probably 468 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: had three or four assists to you that game, just 469 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: to you that game, because almost almost had a triple 470 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: double that game out of bounds, the one you threw behind, Yeah, 471 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: that was a dope drop dropping them all. Next, fair 472 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: question at self, underscore not underscore self. Sometimes cannabis use 473 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: can get a little too much. How do you guys 474 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 1: keep the balance of staying focused and not over medicating. 475 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 1: I think Jack is still a learning this process. Because 476 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: this motherfucker be nodding off on me sometimes and I'll 477 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 1: have to uh not him or or or super cue him. Um. 478 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: But it just comes with the territory. Man, We've been 479 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: doing it for so long. Um. I switched over to 480 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: try to smoke in more hybrid sativas during the day 481 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: because I'm so active with kids and working and ship, 482 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: and then put the heavy indicas to put me to 483 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: sleep at night. But it's a thin line between love 484 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: and hate. I don't know, okay. I think my goal. 485 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: My goal is to do do too much. Uh yeah, yeah, 486 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: I don't know.

I'm over medicating as much as I can, 488 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: all right, I'm actually over medicated now, so therefore I'm 489 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 1: not the one to answer this question. But hey, I 490 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: think you're going into it with the wrong attitude. Okay, 491 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: don't go into it with thinking you're over medicating. Just 492 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 1: think you're over relaxing. Okay, and don't go into and 493 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 1: think you're over medicated. Enjoy it.

I remember, uh DeAndre and Blake when we 499 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: played for the Clipper teams used to be on all 500 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: the other fucking powders and muscle milks and all them 501 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 1: ship and them shipping motherfucker's and gett on the plane 502 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: and fuck the whole plane up. The stewardess used to 503 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: have to come in with PULPORI I would start hitting 504 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 1: my pins sometimes and blowing it just so we get 505 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 1: to cover up the smell. But there there was there 506 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 1: was some nasty motherfucker's man. So I wouldn't want to 507 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 1: sit to nobody that that that takes all the all 508 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: the supplements because they always got bad stomachs. Uh me, 509 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: I probably want to sit next to either Security or 510 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: Tony Parker. Same thing, right, yeah, that same thing. They 511 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: both the logs. They both are gonna tell on me, 512 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 1: and I know I always had some green on me, 513 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, I want to sit next to the Security 514 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: of Tony Clark because they might tell him it's motherfucking 515 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: Jack used to just to smell like you would just 516 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 1: pour the weed into your backpack. With no ziplock and 517 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: nothing and just walk on the plane with that brand 518 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 1: Louis back. This poker didn't care about nothing anyway. Moving on, 519 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: I've grown next fan question at Max Petzer. Among NBA 520 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 1: legends who are no longer living, who do we wish 521 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: we could have had on our show? Oh, it's a 522 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: good question. I know who already got mine. Obviously I 523 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: would say Will Man, Come on, we had great minds, 524 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 1: thinking like baby, I would have to say Will. I 525 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: have a lot of questions for Will, especially when it 526 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 1: comes to women. I want to ask all these Uh. 527 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 1: I would have wanted to ask all those legendary rumors um. 528 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 1: And then obviously his greatness on the court. Um. So 529 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: that Yeah, that would be definitely be my pick. Yeah, 530 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: Will would be my pig to just just how interesting 531 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: Will was going a hundred points of life super least Yeah, 532 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, just before his time, everything 533 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: about Will. I mentioned it in this Thursday April we 534 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: dropped a really dope episode with our girl Genie Buss 535 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: enjoyed the teaser. How close was Kobe to the Clippers? 536 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 1: That really happened? Um? You know I never had that 537 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,199 Speaker 1: conversation with Kobe but there was a game where he 538 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: wore Clippers, right, yeah, not even the jersey. He wore 539 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: like the Colors. Yeah, like very subtle. And I'm like, 540 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: you know, I could see like he loves challenges, right, 541 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: and and that would have been like a right, So 542 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:47,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I I do think that was something that was, um, 543 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 1: you know, very possible. So you guys lose, could you 544 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: imagine that? Though? My god? Remember I remember they were 545 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: talking about they were going to build an arena out 546 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 1: in Orange County for me wouldn't have to travel now, 547 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 1: and like the Clippers put the full court press to 548 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: try to get Kobe, and I was just like, there's 549 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 1: no way this can happen. So that that was crazy. 550 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: I would give up everything you got to, including children. Yeah. 551 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: So you guys lose an oh eight, um to Boston, 552 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 1: come back the next year, beat Orlando and get a 553 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: chance for redemption in two thousand ten. Okay, yeah, so 554 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 1: like two thousand and eight, Now we were humiliated by 555 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 1: Boston in that game six. We had to like fly, 556 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: we barely won Game five, and now I have to 557 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:41,679 Speaker 1: go to Boston, to Boston and lose by thirty whatever points. 558 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: And so now I've got grumpy fill, you know, because 559 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 1: it's so hard to lose your last game with you know, 560 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: now it's going to stick with you the whole summer. 561 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: And but you know, Kobe had the Olympics, right, so 562 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 1: now he's got a chance to like redeem, get back 563 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: into beating somebody. And so of course they end up 564 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:11,479 Speaker 1: playing Spain and you know for the gold medal against Pal, 565 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: and you know there's it's on YouTube. I watched it recently. 566 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: Um him, you know, uh, just kind of leveling Pal 567 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 1: during the game and just kind of standing over him like, 568 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: you know, this is what needs to happen. Yeah, this 569 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: is Pal. You don't want to say, but Poal got bully. 570 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: Pal got punked a lot. But Kobe took that ship personal, 571 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: and Kobe had a it was always out of love, 572 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: but he was tough on Pal because he saw how 573 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: great Poal was. And I think Power spoke on how 574 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: Kobe kind of molded him kind of into a different 575 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: mindset because Power was always so talented. But I remember Boston, 576 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: they just tried to punk kg Perk all them dues 577 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: and that's what they did. And Kobe fucking hated that ship. 578 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: So when it happened the Olymics. I remember that, and 579 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: I was just like, pow, this is what the fund 580 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: needed to happen. But I saw that in the locker 581 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: room sometimes, like he would be hard on Pal because 582 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: he knew how great Pot was. He was just such 583 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: a nice guy, and Kobe didn't like that. On the 584 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: court it can be nice. Well then then he when 585 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: you know we were getting ready for that next season, 586 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: Kobe hung his gold medal in Pal's locker just to 587 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: remind him. Right. So now we you know, we get 588 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: back to the NBA Finals, but it's against Orlando, and um, 589 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: it's funny because you know, um, you know, we ended 590 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 1: up afterwards having Dwight Howard on our team and that 591 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: was you know, Orlando was Dwight Howard's team at that 592 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: time and we're playing them in the finals, and um, 593 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: you know, it was just it was great to be 594 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: redeemed and win that championship. So now the following year, um, 595 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 1: we get back to the NBA Finals and this time 596 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: it is against Boston and it is, um, you know, 597 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: the way things should have been, and no, but having 598 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: it go to a game seven, Um, you know you 599 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: couldn't have written it any better. That's what's so great 600 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 1: about sports is it's it's so dramatic and ironic and 601 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: emotional and hysterical, and it just every different kind of 602 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: emotion you can imagine. Yeah, and so beating them was 603 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: was super sweet and um you know that was in 604 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: closing this segment out, we got quick hitters. First step 605 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: Paul George five straight thirty point games. He's averaging thirty 606 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 1: three over his last five majority without Kawai Kwai just 607 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: returned last night. Clippers are eight in one over this span. Jack, 608 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: Will he be able to do it in the playoffs? 609 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: He was very see areous when he looked in the 610 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: camera on the show in the preseason excuse me in 611 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: in the summertime and said, he's on one this year 612 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: and he hasn't let us down. Now. I think I 613 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: think he's on one. I think the plus is having 614 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 1: Rondo because a lot of those possessions where they're doing 615 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: pick and rolls and they're trying to do too much 616 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: of trying to get that shot off, Rondo gonna bring 617 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: the ball up and give it right to him on 618 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: that block, right to him in they sweet spot, you 619 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So a lot of shots he's 620 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: taken right taken now are gonna be higher percentage shots 621 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: and shots you know in his range and Kauai to 622 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: They're both gonna get a lot of post ups, more 623 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: shots where they will have to create where they could 624 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: just go straight to the basket. So, um, I think 625 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: he can do it, you know what I say. Like 626 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: I said, with the additional Rondo, these guys gonna get 627 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: the ball the sweet spots and they won't have to 628 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: do too much off the dribble and that, and that's 629 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: definitely beneficial for guys like Paul and Kauai going specially 630 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: going to the playoffs. Yeah, I definitely thought the biggest 631 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 1: pickup UM was drumming with the Lakers, but the next 632 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: biggest pickup was Rondo. And as we mentioned earlier, it's 633 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: not even so much as numbers. His you know, his 634 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: numbers six and a half points five re els, but 635 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: it's just his experience, his calming, his understanding of where 636 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: to get the guys the ball where they wanted, when 637 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: they wanted, and then taking some playmaking pressure off both 638 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: Kauai and PG. So the answer your question, yeah, I 639 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: think PG can keep this rolling. I'm excited to see 640 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: him keep this rolling because I think the Clippers got 641 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: a great shot again. I think the Clippers got another 642 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: great shot. Uh. And this is gonna be a big 643 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: season because this is you know, last year, you know, 644 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: like they said it wasn't it wasn't make or break 645 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: for them. Um. I don't necessarily think this year's make 646 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 1: or break, but it's gonna be ugly, uh, because you 647 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: don't get too many chances, you know, playing next door 648 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: to the Lakers. So um, you know, excited to see 649 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 1: what this team could do healthy uh in the playoffs. 650 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell out at least a week with the spraying ankle. 651 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: Gobert and Connley also sat recently against the Lakers. On 652 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: the injury report, Mitchell's missed four games this season. The 653 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: Jazz are seven and eight all time without Mitchell. Do 654 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: you see the Jazz sliding at all if Mitchell doesn't 655 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,479 Speaker 1: return in the next week or two, Yeah, I do. 656 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 1: He's a big part of their success, the leading score 657 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: on their team, and uh, he does a lot for 658 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: the team. Is the leader. Obviously Connie can also lead 659 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: the team, but scoring wise is all Donovan Mitchell. So 660 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: this team is definitely gonna slide. They're gonna have to 661 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: find out what they're scoring. It's gonna come from. I 662 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: think Jordan's gonna have to step up and and do 663 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: more than what he's been doing off the bench coming 664 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: into a starting role. So we'll see. But hey, it's 665 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: just bad timing for the UTA Jazz. Yeah, you know, 666 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: Jordan Clarkson most likely is gonna win six Man of 667 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: the Year. He had a big game the other night 668 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: against the Lakers. It's gonna be interesting to see um. 669 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: Like I said, for some reason, I I'm just gonna 670 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: have to see the you know what you talk of 671 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: do in the playoffs. I was, you know, saying before 672 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: the trade deadline, I thought this team would have been 673 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: a great if you would have picked up you know, 674 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: you know, someone who could really score, make a move, 675 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: and everyone thought I was crazy, But I just don't know, 676 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: like for a situation like this. Although Mitchell is gonna return, 677 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 1: if they don't have him, they're shot, you know what 678 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: I mean. So it's gonna be interesting to you know, 679 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: hopefully he gets healthy soon and come back and pick 680 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: up where he left off because he's had a great 681 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: season as well. Next step, there's been a Jabari Parker's signing. 682 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: He made his Boston Celtics debut on Friday, where he 683 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,439 Speaker 1: scored eleven points, going five or six from the field 684 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: in sixteen minutes. Jack, I really like this dude coming 685 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:18,319 Speaker 1: into the league, and I'm not sure if it's just 686 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 1: been injury or the White situation, but if he can somehow, 687 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 1: you know, find his game, I definitely think he'll be 688 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: a good addition, um given the Celtics depth going into 689 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 1: the playoffs, because the kid is strong, skilled, you know, 690 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 1: a good offensive game. But I think he's just been 691 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 1: riddled by injury his whole career. Yeah, I mean, I 692 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: agree with you, Matt. He's been going through a lot 693 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: of injury wise, and I thought he was gonna be 694 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: able to to ball out in Chicago when he went 695 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 1: when he went to Chicago, you know, But in this 696 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 1: position he's in now, all you have to do is 697 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 1: catch finished the rebound, you know. And I think as 698 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 1: talented at as he is, he's gonna he's gonna do 699 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: that with flying colors because you can drop the ball 700 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: to him in certain possessions, he can get his own bucket. 701 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 1: So being able to just catch and finish. Now with 702 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 1: with two young stars on the wings, it's a good 703 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: position for him, and I think he can play a 704 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 1: big role with them, you know, especially in the playoffs. 705 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 1: I completely agree. I think this is a great pickup. 706 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 1: I hope he can stay healthy and and and give 707 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 1: them a boost to that front line because, like you said, 708 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: he's someone that works well on that in that baseline 709 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 1: mid range area and definitely could be a boost for 710 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: the Celtics come playoff time. Jack, we got some breaking 711 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:27,359 Speaker 1: news bro fresh off the wire chat Holmgren, who will 712 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: will be uh in the Iverson Classic game next month. 713 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 1: We will be coaching number one player in the country. 714 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: Projected number one pick of the draft has just committed. 715 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: Ticken Zaga, who just made a national championship running fell short. 716 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: Jenleen Sugs is most likely out of here, so they 717 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: replaced him with a number one player in the country. 718 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 1: Thoughts on this dope, man, I haven't seen too much 719 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: of this kid, but you've been hot.
