Speaker 1: many of these left three. We discussed whether Lindsey seen
Speaker 1: here is the real meat Shield. We talked about Omer
Speaker 1: playing Mike like a damn fiddle, got into the Sanctuary reward,
Speaker 1: Survivor analogies, Mary Anne's chances of winning this thing island
Speaker 1: weather so much more so, I highly recommend you go
Speaker 1: check out No Bus. It has its own separate YouTube
Speaker 1: feed and podcast feed. Did you end up watching the
Speaker 1: episode test?
Speaker 2: I did nice and every single season. The ongoing joke
Speaker 2: here and no dunk. It's a good time to get it,
Speaker 2: perfect time. But now being in it, it's not even
Speaker 2: a joke. That's real.
Speaker 1: We've never been lying to you.
Speaker 4: It's a great time to get in.
Speaker 1: It's a very good time to get so you're into it. Okay, awesome,
Speaker 1: I'll check out no bus And before we get to
Speaker 1: your questions and comments, we haven't hit the beach here
Speaker 1: in so long. I checkedbus second. Wow, the last beach
Speaker 1: step in specific podcast?
Speaker 5: Well it was winter then close it a summer now
Speaker 5: maybe why?
Speaker 1: But before we get to the questions, really dip our
Speaker 1: toes in those sand. We've got some NBA news to
Speaker 1: quickly address here as we head into the playoff weekend.
Speaker 1: Dylan brooks Leary suspended for Game three versus the Warriors
Speaker 1: after the hard foul on Gary Peaton the second We debated.
Speaker 4: Whether he would get a game.
Speaker 1: Some of us thought, now, because he missed the basically
Speaker 1: the entirety of game too, maybe that's sort of the suspension.
Speaker 1: But in the end the league says no, Here you go.
Speaker 5: I think that's the right decision. Yeah, because this one
Speaker 5: was a pretty careless, sloppy play by Dylan Brooks. You know,
Speaker 5: sometimes in the heat of the moment things can happen.
Speaker 5: You can react. But when you take a running wind
Speaker 5: up and collatter into a guy, hit his head and
Speaker 5: he breaks his elbow, I don't think you really have
Speaker 5: got much of a defense there. I understand playoff basketball,
Speaker 5: you don't want to give up any easy baskets, but
Speaker 5: you certainly also don't want to end a guy season potentially,
Speaker 5: which may happen. I mean, obviously depends on how long
Speaker 5: the Warriors, but I believe Peyton's going to be missing
Speaker 5: up to six weeks here, which is significant time here.
Speaker 5: So I think it was a silly play. I think
Speaker 5: the league got it right. I think one game is
Speaker 5: enough that you heat people saying, well he should be
Speaker 5: at as long as the injured player is out, that's ridiculous.
Speaker 5: That's not gonna happen. But I believe, you know, he
Speaker 5: got ejected right call, and now he's going to miss
Speaker 5: a game for that anything that.
Speaker 2: Good, okay, and needed to have it before the injury.
Speaker 2: Before the injury news of Gary Payton which obviously is
Speaker 2: horrible having the season of his career. Still Dunmbrook should
Speaker 2: have been suspended immediately one game. Yeah, well, debate that whatever.
Speaker 2: At least he's suspended for sure and Memphis has to
Speaker 2: overcome something just like the Warriors do.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 1: Other news, Joel Embiid is listed as out for Game
Speaker 1: three versus the Heat tonight because of the concussion the
Speaker 1: facial injury, though Woes says there's progress that could be
Speaker 1: made to change his availability for tonight's game because he
Speaker 1: has yet to clear the NBA's concussion protocol and he
Speaker 1: can only be listed.
Speaker 4: As out until he does so.
Speaker 1: I guess in theory, what I was just saying is
Speaker 1: he could clear that at some point today and we
Speaker 1: could see dwell Embiid back for Game three. And we
Speaker 1: talked about it, like if he doesn't, if he doesn't
Speaker 1: play this series sweep. It's looking that way, so we'll
Speaker 1: find out. I mean, I think we're all hoping for
Speaker 1: tonight's scheme between six Ers and Heat in Philly that
Speaker 1: he gets cleared at some point he is healthy and
Speaker 1: good to go. Probably throws the mask on and tries
Speaker 1: to make this a more entertaining series.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're leaving the door open for him to potentially return.
Speaker 4: It's a little bit of hope, em but I think
Speaker 4: it's a little bit of gamesmanship as well. You don't
Speaker 4: want to rule him out and say completely that he's out, yeah,
Speaker 4: because then the Heat have to prepare for him potentially
Speaker 4: being available as well. So let's open Bead is available,
Speaker 4: because this series is not very exciting if he's not playing.
Speaker 2: Hope, it's a hell of a drug that's right, That's right.
Speaker 2: I will say, let's let's get on drugs here for
Speaker 2: a sec. Game three, let's say they go on the beach, so, well,
Speaker 2: they go home. There's the hope that Joel Embiid comes back.
Speaker 2: Even if he doesn't come back tonight, something's in the water.
Speaker 2: They have a good game. They could win one game
Speaker 2: at home, right with the crowd rocking, with George Niang
Speaker 2: getting hot, something could happen.
Speaker 4: Somebody hits some threes on the scene would help.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and maybe Les DeAndre Jordan. I know he wasn't
Speaker 2: the reason, but anyways, it could happen. Yeah, then game
Speaker 2: four and be comes back. Then it's two to one.
Speaker 2: You could send Squid. We could have a series.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, well we'll wait to find out. I'm sure
Speaker 1: as soon as we post today's show we'll know whether
Speaker 1: or not Joell and Beat is playing in game three.
Speaker 1: That's how it goes. Okay, let's hit the beach though
Speaker 1: some great questions. Keep them coming. No Dunks at the
Speaker 1: Athletic dot Com tweet him in at no Dunk Sync. First,
Speaker 1: one man, we're starting with a banger. We're starting with
Speaker 1: the one that gets the clicks. Donovan Mitchell for Paul George,
Speaker 1: who says, no, Utah will have to throw in pieces
Speaker 1: to make the money work, like Nikhil, Alexander Walker, Royce O'Neill.
Speaker 1: But let me know your thoughts. That's from Lachlan are
Speaker 1: Task Mitchell for PG, who says no.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, we talked about Rudy Gobert potentially demanding that
Speaker 2: one of them has to go. Earlier this week, there
Speaker 2: was that Sean O'Connell rumor out there. We asked, give
Speaker 2: us your trade suggestions. Lache Lanard, I think he did
Speaker 2: this a little hastily. I think he just threw this
Speaker 2: one together and threw it up there. But it's juicy,
Speaker 2: so I included it because I want to say it's
Speaker 2: one of those rare who says no, where both say no.
Speaker 2: I think I know, first glance, I think Donovan Mitchell younger,
Speaker 2: the Clippers probably say yes. But I think they would
Speaker 2: be a little wary of Kawhi just signed long term.
Speaker 2: Paul George said sign long term. They're okay with each other.
Speaker 2: I think they have this small, small little window here
Speaker 2: of trying to win a championship. They just went to
Speaker 2: a conference final. They know what each other brings, and
Speaker 2: I'm not sure, kwhy can entirely trust Donovan Mitchell to
Speaker 2: do what Paul George does. So I think there's would
Speaker 2: be a little hesitancy on the Clippers side. I think
Speaker 2: they're just going to go into next year with the
Speaker 2: idea that last year, this this past year, we were
Speaker 2: entirely injured the year before we made the conference finals.
Speaker 2: They just resigned Robert Covington to two years twenty four
Speaker 2: million dollars just yesterday. So I think they're gonna kind
Speaker 2: of stay status quo. Although I hear I hear the idea,
Speaker 2: it kind of makes sense, but I think the jazz
Speaker 2: from the jazz perspective, would you go for a now
Speaker 2: when now, right now, maybe win yesterday type of player
Speaker 2: and Paul George for Donovan Mitchell. It's an odd package,
Speaker 2: I think, And it's weird that in twenty eighteen I
Speaker 2: had this flashback when Paul George was a free agent.
Speaker 2: Don Mitchell said, yeah, I think I'm gonna try and
Speaker 2: get him to Utah. So if he got traded for
Speaker 2: each other, that would be weird. But I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't like it for some reason. From both sides.
Speaker 5: What do you think I think the Clippers would do this?
Speaker 5: I think I would say why not? Why not? Because
Speaker 5: because Ella's GM. Paul George is the better applied, no
Speaker 5: question about it. But there are some serious concerns about
Speaker 5: his health. You know, he missed fifty one games this season.
Speaker 5: He missed basically twenty eight the season before, and then
Speaker 5: before that he missed about another twenty as well. He
Speaker 5: obviously had that horrible injury nearly a decade ago. As well.
Speaker 5: He's a brilliant player, He's an All Star, you know,
Speaker 5: MVP candidate at his best. But I think his body
Speaker 5: is starting to let him down. He's thirty two years old.
Speaker 5: And also that pairing with Kawhi hasn't been great. It's
Speaker 5: been good at times, but it hasn't been great. And
Speaker 5: I think if you say, well, maybe we cash in
Speaker 5: and get the younger player with still some questions himself.
Speaker 5: Donovan no doubt about his leadership and his defense needs
Speaker 5: to work. But maybe he's just maybe a slightly better
Speaker 5: fit there with Kawi Lennard. Maybe not, who knows, but
Speaker 5: I think they just signed Paul George that five year
Speaker 5: extension for two hundred and twenty six. I think he's
Speaker 5: got about three years left after this, maybe four is
Speaker 5: I can't quite remember. But I just think if you're
Speaker 5: the Clippers, you think maybe why not, let's let's roll
Speaker 5: the dice here and see what younger. Yeah, I just
Speaker 5: sort of think that they might might think this is
Speaker 5: an opportunity for them, whereas Paul George, like thirty two
Speaker 5: is old but said not, oh if you get five
Speaker 5: good years out of himseltill. But I just wonder, you know, again,
Speaker 5: he's had all sorts of weird injuries and he continues
Speaker 5: to get injured. So maybe I feel the clip as
Speaker 5: you go, all right, all right, look.
Speaker 4: See I think the Clippers say no. I think the
Speaker 4: Clippers say no, like right away because you're way closer
Speaker 4: to a title with Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, I
Speaker 4: think than with Kawhi Leonard and Donovan Mitchell. One thing
Speaker 4: that I didn't ever think about until I saw this question.
Speaker 4: Donovan Mitchell. He's got two first names, just like Paul George.
Speaker 4: They're kind of the same guy. It's very much the
Speaker 4: Spider Man meme. You know, I don't think either of
Speaker 4: these guys are clear cut number ones, Paul George or
Speaker 4: Donovan Mitchell. They're also too good to be number twos.
Speaker 4: They're kind of one and a half. Yeah, but I
Speaker 4: think that Paul George and Kawhi is more of a
Speaker 4: title contender than Paul George or than Kawhi and Donovan Mitchell.
Speaker 4: And I think that if you're the Clippers, you say
Speaker 4: we just destroyed your team last year, like we just
Speaker 4: completely eviscerated your team, going by Donovan Mitchell, Now we're
Speaker 4: gonna trade for that guy, I don't think that happens.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm leaning towards sort of trace thinking here. I
Speaker 1: think of the two teams, I think the Clippers are
Speaker 1: more likely to say no in this scenario where the
Speaker 1: Jazz might be like, well, then Paul George is a
Speaker 1: good player. When he's healthy, he actually can play some defense.
Speaker 1: You know, we pair that with Rudy, maybe we're right
Speaker 1: back in the mix of things that they would be
Speaker 1: more likely because I also truly believe that the Jazz
Speaker 1: are gonna have to make a decision here Rudy or
Speaker 1: don in it like that's that's happened in this summer,
Speaker 1: and it's like, what's the best what's the best you know,
Speaker 1: direction for us to go with our franchise, like which
Speaker 1: one we are attaching to here in Mitchell or Gobert,
Speaker 1: And then obviously what's the best package we can get back?
Speaker 1: Because I don't think they're like leaning into like a
Speaker 1: blow it all up and let's you know, go worry
Speaker 1: and chase lottery balls and stuff like that in Utah,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't think. So they're gonna want like a pretty
Speaker 1: good return from one of these guys. So I would
Speaker 1: say the Clippers would be most likely saying no in
Speaker 1: this hypothetical.
Speaker 2: Lachlan, I said, you had just tossed that one together,
Speaker 2: But you know what, you got some good debate here
Speaker 2: on the show, And let me throw in another one
Speaker 2: that just came in under the wire for Rudy Gobert. Okay,
Speaker 2: because that was you know, the initial discussion. Are they
Speaker 2: going to trade Rudy? Are they going to trade Donovan Mitchell?
Speaker 2: As you said, probably one goes email from Jordan V
Speaker 2: came in. The Wolves jump in and receive Rudy Gobert.
Speaker 2: Utah receives D'Angelo Russell's expiring Jaden McDaniels and twenty twenty
Speaker 2: two and twenty twenty four first round picks. Let's say
Speaker 2: they're unprotected Jane McDaniel's. They you know, the most potential
Speaker 2: on this in this trade package, but a couple juicy
Speaker 2: picks there unless the Wolves are good and then they're
Speaker 2: sort of middle of the you know, first round twenty
Speaker 2: twenty two plus, Yeah, D'Angelo Russell. Who the Jazz could use?
Speaker 2: I suppose not at all. I will say Jordan feel.
Speaker 2: I will say Jordan V is a wolve sand It's
Speaker 2: pretty makes that makes some sense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, that's why I think you would do that trade.
Speaker 1: If you're Minnesota, Yes, giving up Dangel Russell.
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, very young guys that here.
Speaker 1: Is promising, but we're you know, who knows what the
Speaker 1: ceiling is on McDaniels and then you said a couple
Speaker 1: of picks. Yeah, you would be doing that for Gobar
Speaker 1: compair with Towns be fascinating.
Speaker 2: Right, that would be it would be fascinating. Yeah, he
Speaker 2: is a Wolves fan, yes, and the first round picks
Speaker 2: are listen, it depends on where you are in your timeline.
Speaker 2: The Jazz, I'm not sure they do the Paul George
Speaker 2: deal because I don't know if they want to get
Speaker 2: older and maybe they would do want to go younger
Speaker 2: with these for two first round picks, which would be
Speaker 2: a good haul because you don't see two first round
Speaker 2: picks that are unprotected come around that often. So anyway,
Speaker 2: moving on to the second question here, No duncan ruse
Speaker 2: first time, long time watching these playoffs got me wondering
Speaker 2: for the next ten years. You can pick one of
Speaker 2: these guards. Who you got, Jordan Poole, Tyres, Maxi or
Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson.
Speaker 4: I don't usually do these.
Speaker 1: But that's a good one, A good one.
Speaker 2: Three up in commerce. Thanks big fan. Keep up all
Speaker 2: the great work that's from Sam so Lee. Jordan Poole, Tyres,
Speaker 2: Maxie or Jalen.
Speaker 5: Bruns Yeah, yeah, great one, really good. I think They've
Speaker 5: all got a lot of potential there. I think I
Speaker 5: tried to sort of compare them, who can I see
Speaker 5: them being?
Speaker 1: Like, oh, I was going to bring that up, right, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: like best case scenario who they turn into?
Speaker 4: Yeah, go through that, Okay.
Speaker 5: I'll start with Jaylen Brunson because he had a fantastic
Speaker 5: series in the first round. He's called off obviously here
Speaker 5: against the Phoenix Suns. But I can see a sort
Speaker 5: of a Mike Conley career, a pretty reliable, steady hand. Ye,
Speaker 5: not super flashy, but you know what you're getting out
Speaker 5: of him. I think he's going to be a starter
Speaker 5: next season wherever he plays. Well. I guess maybe not
Speaker 5: if he's in Dalla Steel, but I can see him
Speaker 5: having started potential, but of a reliable hand.
Speaker 1: I've compared him to Van Vliet before, right, okay, like
Speaker 1: sort of like that might be his you know, is
Speaker 1: there an All Star or two in his future in
Speaker 1: the right role?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 5: Well? And I think Mike Conley works in that scenario
Speaker 5: that he was a one time but he probably could
Speaker 5: have been you know more than that. Tyris MAXI now
Speaker 5: look a tough one, but I can see him right now.
Speaker 5: I think he's more a scoring, shooting point guard rather
Speaker 5: than a distributing point guard. So I sort of look
Speaker 5: at him as like a Lou Williams of Jamal Crawford,
Speaker 5: sort of one of those guys who can go out
Speaker 5: there and get you a bucket, because that's what I've
Speaker 5: seen from him. He's fast, he's young, and all that.
Speaker 5: Right now, his shooting is good, and those guys are legends.
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, maybe not best defensive players, maybe
Speaker 5: not even like set up point guards, but great as
Speaker 5: far as doing what they're paid to do. And then
Speaker 5: Jordan Paul I came up with it is a little
Speaker 5: bit tougher for him, I thought, Because I do think
Speaker 5: it's Jordan Paul, He's going to be my answer. I
Speaker 5: think he's shown me the most all round game of
Speaker 5: these three with the highest ceiling I think as well,
Speaker 5: out of these three, I think he does have all
Speaker 5: star appearances in his future.
Speaker 4: I do, I mean jumped into the pot.
Speaker 5: I did. I did. I think he's a good shooter.
Speaker 5: We've seen him passing, we've seen him rebound, would do
Speaker 5: all that. So I'm seeing a sort of a Kyle
Speaker 5: Lowry out of him.
Speaker 4: What didn't expect God, well, Kyle is the comparison for Yeah,
Speaker 4: but i'd see, but see, I didn't want to go
Speaker 4: that deep.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 5: I don't think he's I don't think he's MVP caliber
Speaker 5: myself right now. But Steph Curry was an MVP caliber
Speaker 5: in his second or third season either, so who knows.
Speaker 5: But I just think jordan' paul is coming along very
Speaker 5: nicely and his game is a little bit more rounded
Speaker 5: out of the out of the three of them, in
Speaker 5: the sense that I think he's the guy who can
Speaker 5: go for fifty. Well, Maxie could too. I don't think
Speaker 5: Jameen Brunson's that sort of a guy. I don't think.
Speaker 4: So he went for forty in a playoff, Yeah he did,
Speaker 4: he did, But and Ben Bleez fifty under.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but anyway, I probably not. I just think if
Speaker 5: I was, if I if I could pick one of
Speaker 5: those guys, I would be picking Jordan Pool first. I
Speaker 5: think I think he's got the most potential, the most talent,
Speaker 5: and the most all around to this to his game.
Speaker 1: It is a good question, Trey, you go next, I mean, Pool,
Speaker 1: Maxie or Brunson, And what did you think about the
Speaker 1: comparisons and Uh yeah, we'll take us through your thinking.
Speaker 4: With this, and it comes down to Pool and Maxie. For me,
Speaker 4: just because Brunson's a little bit older, I think he's
Speaker 4: got the lowest ceiling of these three. He's probably the
Speaker 4: best playmaker, probably like the most steady guy. Like, if
Speaker 4: you're going to make a bet on any of the
Speaker 4: three of these to have one All Star appearance, Brunson's
Speaker 4: maybe the guy that being sad, I'm going with Maxie,
Speaker 4: assuming that has shooting his percentage is actually for like,
Speaker 4: he shot forty two point seven percent from three this year. Right,
Speaker 4: if he can shoot forty three percent from three and
Speaker 4: be one of like the five fastest guys in the league,
Speaker 4: he's gonna score twenty a game pretty easily. Pool. I
Speaker 4: don't know what to make of him, man, Like, he's
Speaker 4: got the highest highs of these three. I think for
Speaker 4: sure he does. To me warrant Steph Curry comparisons for
Speaker 4: the way he plays, and for you know, he's kind
Speaker 4: of got the combination of being able to play off
Speaker 4: the ball, being able to handle the ball and pull
Speaker 4: from three, and then also having a lot of wiggle
Speaker 4: to get inside and finish inside. Doesn't play any sort
Speaker 4: of defense, which you know, fair enough, neither none of
Speaker 4: these three guys are lockdown defenders. Brunton's probably the best
Speaker 4: of the three. But Pool, I just don't know. You know,
Speaker 4: he was in the G League like a year ago.
Speaker 4: He'll have a game where he goes for thirty five
Speaker 4: and then he'll have an zero for ten game, And
Speaker 4: I don't know. I just think the Maxie is kind
Speaker 4: of right in the middle of being steady and also
Speaker 4: having a super high ceiling. So give me Tyrese Maxi, okay.
Speaker 1: For a comparison for him, and I think Sixers fans
Speaker 1: are gonna hope maybe it's not like continuing how they've
Speaker 1: started the crews, But like, what about Fox Starren Fox
Speaker 1: was like an actually really good three point shooter in
Speaker 1: his second year, Remember he was like a thirty eight
Speaker 1: percent three point shooter, and then it just like completely
Speaker 1: like fell off a cliff. One of the fastest guys
Speaker 1: in the league. Obviously a great player.
Speaker 4: I love him.
Speaker 1: Kent Kentucky connection there too. Uh, But can MAXI be
Speaker 1: a better shooter than.
Speaker 4: I think Max? He's probably already better than Fox for me,
Speaker 4: for me right now?
Speaker 1: Yes, Wow, I mean he's I mean he's only in
Speaker 1: the second year and he's uh proven so far that
Speaker 1: he's a better shooter than Fox, who's had really bad
Speaker 1: years after that second good year, that he was a
Speaker 1: good three point shooter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you believe in Maxie, you believe in this
Speaker 2: short playoff run in this regular season, and I do.
Speaker 2: I think Maxi is great, So I would pick him
Speaker 2: out of the three.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 2: Yeah, very difficult. But John Brunson that by far the oldest,
Speaker 2: you know, a full two years older than the other guys.
Speaker 2: I do like Pool and Maxi's ability to be off
Speaker 2: the ball. I mean, Maxy, you know, playing with James
Speaker 2: Harden has been really really good, and so put him
Speaker 2: on the ball, put him off the ball, and put
Speaker 2: him on the defensive end. I think he's shown that, Yeah,
Speaker 2: he can do it all. Really, Jordan Pool is very
Speaker 2: very capable of the defensive end. Maybe I'm in playoff
Speaker 2: mode and I think defense wins championships right now, but
Speaker 2: he is. He's a problem on that end. People are
Speaker 2: hunting him and that doesn't happen to Maxi and Brunson.
Speaker 2: The only thing he's a great player easily, h you know,
Speaker 2: Conley type is great, A great comparison. Yeah, just the age,
Speaker 2: and he really really has to have the ball in
Speaker 2: his hands, I think to be effective, although I'm sure
Speaker 2: he'll grow in that in that direction as well, because
Speaker 2: he does play decently with Luca. But a very good question,
Speaker 2: A very three solid player.
Speaker 1: Really good. I mean I think I go with Maxi too,
Speaker 1: But I love Brunson. I've talked about him a lot
Speaker 1: this season and then Pool. I mean I said he's
Speaker 1: going to win finals MVP.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you thought you were making somebody else say that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: True, but he's going to win finals m I'm getting
Speaker 1: at So, I mean, wow, how do you how do
Speaker 1: you turn down him?
Speaker 5: Imagine, Hey wins a fun as m V pain Stiff
Speaker 5: doesn't have one, while No.
Speaker 1: I would go Maxi though, of these three guys, I
Speaker 1: really like what I've seen from him in the playoffs for.
Speaker 4: Sure, and then all season long.
Speaker 1: I mean, guys already scoring eighteen points per game and
Speaker 1: he's not afraid of it, gets at it defensively too.
Speaker 4: He's definitely not afraid of the moment. It feels like,
Speaker 4: so give me him.
Speaker 2: That's a big part of it. We just haven't even
Speaker 2: seen dear in Fox in a postseason game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, that's right. I'm not I am not
Speaker 1: giving up on Fox. I think there is some comparisons there,
Speaker 1: especially when you look at like their early early starts
Speaker 1: to their career. Yeah, and Fox is on a garbage team,
Speaker 1: and you know, he's like, he's obviously fallen out of
Speaker 1: favor with a lot of people. But I think there's
Speaker 1: a lot of talent still there. But we'll see next one, sup,
Speaker 1: No dunks. What do you think is worse an airball
Speaker 1: or a shot that bounces off the side of the backboard.
Speaker 1: My first instinct was obviously off the side of the
Speaker 1: backboard because it looks bad, looks worse. But an airball
Speaker 1: results in a chant from the crowd. What do you
Speaker 1: think that's from Dylan?
Speaker 4: I wonder Dylan Brooks a couple of both of those,
Speaker 4: I guess.
Speaker 1: So there you go, trade this a great one airball
Speaker 1: or the like the one that just hits the side
Speaker 1: of the backboard.
Speaker 4: Last question was really tough to call. Which are you
Speaker 4: choosing between Maxie Pool and brunts? And this one is
Speaker 4: easy for me. I would much. I think it's much
Speaker 4: worse to hit the ball off the side of the
Speaker 4: glass than an airball. Airballs they're commonplace. I shot a
Speaker 4: million air balls in my life. Right shot one on Wednesday.
Speaker 4: In fact, like Dylan says, they happen so often they
Speaker 4: have their own chant. The other thing, with an airball,
Speaker 4: you can convince yourself you were close to making it
Speaker 4: on an air ball that was just short, you know,
Speaker 4: that was just six inches to three feet short, that
Speaker 4: was just six inches long. You also have a chance
Speaker 4: of getting the rebound underneath the hoop and getting an
Speaker 4: easy put back. Then you can do the hey, nice pass. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I saw you under there. All that stuff goes out
Speaker 4: the window. With a shot off the side of the glass.
Speaker 4: It's so embarrassing when you pull up from the corner
Speaker 4: and it goes straight corner of the glass George style.
Speaker 4: You feel like a fool. You feel like a complete idiot.
Speaker 4: Shout out to my guy Andrew Olson took one three
Speaker 4: point attempt in college right off the side of the class.
Speaker 4: That was awesome. We are going wild, so yeah for
Speaker 4: me off the backboard way worse than an airball.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, when you think about it, you're saying
Speaker 1: the airball like it can be straight, but it's just
Speaker 1: obviously like the sort I mean in a way when
Speaker 1: you accidentally bank in a three pointer, that's just the
Speaker 1: lucky man's air ball.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's exactly like you just did the opposite. You
Speaker 4: have it way too hard and somehow bounced in. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I think I think worse is off the side of
Speaker 4: the backboard.
Speaker 2: Agree or I totally agree. And watching the NBA game,
Speaker 2: airballs are happening a decent amount. They happen a couple
Speaker 2: of times a game from good shooter just because guys
Speaker 2: are bombing away from a little bit deeper, so they
Speaker 2: don't stand out as much as a ball off the
Speaker 2: side of the backboard. You can't rebound that if you
Speaker 2: want to look at it that way. Ye, the airballs.
Speaker 1: Airballs ninety percent of the time go to the offensive
Speaker 1: playoffs were on Twitter and it's like it feels like
Speaker 1: it that's a reach, but it generally feels like it
Speaker 1: goes to an offensive player game. Yeah, you know the
Speaker 1: defense is ready for it to get the ring.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right. No one, no one expects the airball
Speaker 5: coming in. You just have to be ready for it. Yeah,
Speaker 5: it's it's definitely the airball is more embarrassing. But you
Speaker 5: know what's more frustrating is more embarrassing. No, no, sorry,
Speaker 5: sorry sorry. The airball is less than the one off
Speaker 5: the back but the one off the backboard is more embarrassing.
Speaker 5: But you know what's more frustrating the shot that you
Speaker 5: get up that's got the perfect release, got the perfect
Speaker 5: back spin, it's accurate, it's online. You're almost back pedaling
Speaker 5: and then thumps off the back of the iron or something.
Speaker 4: Like how did that one miss? That was in?
Speaker 5: Yeah, but people don't know. You're more just like that
Speaker 5: was in how did that one miss? It's infuriating, it's infuriating.
Speaker 5: Happened on Wednesday night?
Speaker 1: You had It's.
Speaker 5: Get back guys. And I'm like, that's more frustrating because
Speaker 5: you're like, that looks good, it feels good, it's on
Speaker 5: its way. That's you just wait for the swish and
Speaker 5: then it just thumps off the iron.
Speaker 4: How do you feel about when you take a shot
Speaker 4: and it doesn't feel good at all coming out of
Speaker 4: your hands and that's almost.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you do the short or.
Speaker 1: No passes, the King of his own shots short left right,
Speaker 1: and I know you've done it before and it's gone
Speaker 1: in and you're like, yeah, I guess I was wrong
Speaker 1: with that one, not as left as I thought.
Speaker 5: I think that's more annoying for the other people because
Speaker 5: they're like, what'd you say that?
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't be like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know you're almost being cocky.
Speaker 5: Yeah you are? You are? You?
Speaker 1: Okay, I know you are. You are, first off, a
Speaker 1: great three point shooter. Ye're really good in the corners.
Speaker 1: Have you ever clanked it off the side of the back, Corse.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you do that, Yeah for sure. I mean the
Speaker 5: most embarrassing moment was when I had the two free
Speaker 5: throws and by point the game's over, So two free throws.
Speaker 4: And you claimed it off the side of the back
Speaker 4: but it was difficult.
Speaker 5: But it was international, so it was a one on one,
Speaker 5: so you've got to hit the first to get the second.
Speaker 5: I was like, this is the moment I wanted.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you love free throws.
Speaker 5: Absolutely bricked the first, didn't even hit iron, clunked it
Speaker 5: off the backboard. Oh my god. I was so upset.
Speaker 4: You're a practice free throw, I was.
Speaker 5: I was like, yeah, I was fourteen or something and
Speaker 5: I was playing in a men's league, and I was like,
Speaker 5: this is great. I'm gonna I'm gonna these babies throws
Speaker 5: and just thud off the backboard.
Speaker 4: Wow, that's right.
Speaker 5: And from that moment on, I've been practicing my free throws.
Speaker 5: All right.
Speaker 1: Well, let's hear from everybody out there in the stream, team,
Speaker 1: everybody listening to the podcast later. That is a fun
Speaker 1: question from Dylan. Airball or the shot that bounces off
Speaker 1: the side of the backboard, which one is worse? I mean,
Speaker 1: we didn't bring up the airball champ part. I mean
Speaker 1: that is it's that would suck if you're yeah, a
Speaker 1: professional basketball players.
Speaker 4: A good point. You get that airball chance.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but also though you got to you got to
Speaker 5: sort of do the what you say.
Speaker 1: You got tipped yeah, foul click.
Speaker 5: Yeah, point to the other guy you're supposed to be.
Speaker 5: You know, you're just deflecting at that point, deflecting.
Speaker 2: And also the defensive players have made it a habit
Speaker 2: now to duck out of the way when an air
Speaker 2: ball goes out of bounds. Devin Booker did it the
Speaker 2: other day. Yeah, serious, we'll.
Speaker 4: Watch out flying balls.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's you know, that's embarrassing. But still side of
Speaker 2: the backboard, it's like you don't want to touch that
Speaker 2: even if you're on that guy's team, you don't want
Speaker 2: to touch that ball. That's a dirty But.
Speaker 5: The defense is like now too small when it's like,
Speaker 5: well wait did that one? You know, yeah.
Speaker 4: That's good, good call. You ever bank in a three
Speaker 4: from the corner, like off the top corner of the glass.
Speaker 4: That's the weirdest feeling. Yeah, that's even worse than like
Speaker 4: banking went in from the top of the key. You're like,
Speaker 4: at least I aimed it straight on that one. It's like,
Speaker 4: you missed pretty bad, but you got a gift from
Speaker 4: the heaven, thank you. Mister. I've said this before.
Speaker 1: That happened at the game that was at in the
Speaker 1: Sky though Michael Jordan versus the Expansion Raptors. Uh, he
Speaker 1: goes I think accidentally. He hits like a baseline that
Speaker 1: they waved it off because it was too late. But
Speaker 1: he hits a baseline jumper that somehow goes off the glass,
Speaker 1: and I mean, like he's baseline.
Speaker 4: That's really weird. It's gonna happen like five times a year.
Speaker 4: Maybe that's like banked in shot from the baseline.
Speaker 2: Very weird.
Speaker 1: Do you think we'll ever see a player that comes
Speaker 1: into the league named Airball.
Speaker 4: Because then you could chant his name.
Speaker 1: Probably not cool.
Speaker 4: The last name.
Speaker 1: Is there anybody in the world last named Airball?
Speaker 4: I mean there's several balls in the end. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: lines to pay tribute to Michael Jordan. There in Chicago, you.
Speaker 2: Could see parents in the hospital room. What do you
Speaker 2: want to name your kid? Air bud All? I mean
Speaker 2: first name, last name. It probably wouldn't happen.
Speaker 4: They think they hear it as air ball.
Speaker 2: Airball, no problem, I said, air But I guess I'm
Speaker 2: tired of having a kid.
Speaker 1: Let's take our first break when we come back. We
Speaker 1: got a lot more.
Speaker 4: Questions to get to, So don't go anywhere.
Speaker 2: Back with no donks. Let's just jump right in another
Speaker 2: question here. Hey guys, I love the show and haven't
Speaker 2: missed one in years. Thank you for all that you do.
Speaker 2: Thank you. I want to hear your opinions on which
Speaker 2: player needs a new situation. Aside from Damian Lillard or
Speaker 2: Bradley Beal myself, I want to see Julius Randall on
Speaker 2: a team where he will have a strong ball handler
Speaker 2: and creator. What's your tick? Thanks to all that's from
Speaker 2: Dave in May and so Trey new situation? What you got.
Speaker 4: Just realize my reading comprehension skills.
Speaker 2: Is that why you chuckled?
Speaker 4: Wh yeah yeah, yeah yeah. Once you got to the
Speaker 4: part that says which player needs a new situation aside
Speaker 4: from Damian, Lillard or Bradley, I just saw three names
Speaker 4: in this and I thought we're choosing between the three
Speaker 4: and Lillard, Beal or Randall. So I was ready to
Speaker 4: take you back on a little journey through Twitter time.
Speaker 4: This is a tweet from Shan Sharanya. The Washington Wizards
Speaker 4: had a volatile practice within recent days, with verbal altercations
Speaker 4: among players and an exasperated Bradley Beal saying toward team officials,
Speaker 4: I've been dealing with this for seven years. That was
Speaker 4: November twenty eighteen, wow, four seasons ago. The Wizards since
Speaker 4: then have gone one hundred and twenty six and one
Speaker 4: hundred and eighty two. They've got one playoff appearance, which
Speaker 4: they lost four to one to the Sixers. So for me,
Speaker 4: even though this is the opposite of what Dave in
Speaker 4: Maine was asking, it's gotta be beale, like, get this
Speaker 4: guy to another team because right now he's eligible for
Speaker 4: a five year Super Max deal, which would mean another
Speaker 4: five years of should he stay or should he go?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 4: Yeah, good years as the number two with Wall not
Speaker 4: as good as the number one with kind of no
Speaker 4: number two alongside him. He's probably a one point five.
Speaker 4: I would like to see what he can do on
Speaker 4: another team. And I'm sorry for poorly reading your question. Yeah,
Speaker 4: not bad.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was fun.
Speaker 5: Well you yeah, well you know the question he eliminated
Speaker 5: of the obvious answers. That's fine, okay, Randall, Yes, I agree,
Speaker 5: but I'm going with the Aaron Fox we talked about him.
Speaker 5: I want him in a different situation. I think he's
Speaker 5: been good. His numbers actually weren't as bad as I
Speaker 5: thought they were last season. He didn't have a great season,
Speaker 5: they weren't actually that far off the season before, which
Speaker 5: we had a great individual season there. He's also got
Speaker 5: some injury concerns as well. He hasn't played more than
Speaker 5: sixty games in three seasons, so he's a young player.
Speaker 5: He needs to sort that out. But I just think
Speaker 5: after five seasons in Sacramento, he's going to have his
Speaker 5: fifteenth coach in the next season, when it's either Mark
Speaker 5: Jackson or Mike Brown. By the sounds of it. I
Speaker 5: think he deserves to go somewhere else. I think he's
Speaker 5: a good player, but you can't thrive in an atmosphere
Speaker 5: where you're having continual turnover of front office, coaching staff,
Speaker 5: bad teams, bad situation. He's you know, he's going to
Speaker 5: improve as well as defense and his more consistency's shooting
Speaker 5: that three pointer. But I would love to just see
Speaker 5: him go to a team where he's got some good
Speaker 5: players around him, a bit more of a solid foundation,
Speaker 5: and I think he could thrive. And I think I
Speaker 5: think he definitely has all stop potential, but he's not
Speaker 5: going to realize that in Sacramento.
Speaker 1: Both these situations, Bill and Fox, they got new big
Speaker 1: guys though, to play with, you know, if they stick
Speaker 1: around with their franchises, Beal with Porzingis and Fox with Sabonis.
Speaker 1: But I like the Deer and Fox answer a lot.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'd like to see him flourish in Sacramento
Speaker 1: if they could ever their shit together too. I mean, again,
Speaker 1: I'm buying all the Fox stock you have, but it's
Speaker 1: a good one.
Speaker 4: Do you have another one? Tough?
Speaker 2: I just want to note one thing. Bradley Beal said,
Speaker 2: he's been there for seven years. It was only six
Speaker 2: at that point because I looked it up. I wanted
Speaker 2: to see it. Did he get drafted in twenty eleven?
Speaker 2: Has he been there that long? Was twenty twelve. He's
Speaker 2: been there ten years already, ten fall seasons. And I
Speaker 2: went to go see how long he signed for. And
Speaker 2: he just has a player option for next year. And
Speaker 2: that's it all that talked. That he re signed in Washington.
Speaker 2: He's gonna be there forever. It was a real short deal.
Speaker 2: It was a one plus one, so he just had
Speaker 2: the one and here comes the other one. And I
Speaker 2: agree that beyond that, if they don't do if they
Speaker 2: don't change anything drastically, I mean, they may give it
Speaker 2: a little shot here with him and Porzingis, but I
Speaker 2: could see a deal being done.
Speaker 1: May playoff series, that's broadbly being one with the Wizards.
Speaker 4: I know they beat the Raptors.
Speaker 5: Yeah they be Oh so I think the Raptors the
Speaker 5: Hulks after that, So he may have.
Speaker 2: Been they lost to the Celtics that they got to
Speaker 2: the second round. It was a seven game series. They
Speaker 2: should have won. It should have gone to their own
Speaker 2: conference finals.
Speaker 4: So I don't know he looks like they won a
Speaker 4: series in fourteen, fifteen, now seventeen back.
Speaker 1: In actually more than I thought. I thought maybe one
Speaker 1: or two, but I guess you're saying three.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it looks like it again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, never made it out a second round.
Speaker 2: Give me Lennie Walker just to throw one in this one.
Speaker 2: So many guards on those on the San Antonis first.
Speaker 2: He's been there for four years, which we were. We
Speaker 2: were back calling one of his Summer League games back
Speaker 2: at NBA TV. He can look like a Hall of Famer.
Speaker 2: I'm guessing he wants to play elsewhere. After they were
Speaker 2: eliminated from the play in term, I think he only
Speaker 2: played seventeen minutes. He did a bunch of liking tweets
Speaker 2: that said he should have played more, he should have
Speaker 2: played more, and I'm yeah reading into that. But they
Speaker 2: have so many guards, and de Jontae Murray obviously is
Speaker 2: going to play a ton. Second year, Den Vessel played
Speaker 2: more than him, Derek White played more than he got
Speaker 2: traded in, and the Josh Richardson played more. They have
Speaker 2: another one in Josh.
Speaker 4: Primomo was playing on stretch.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Keldon Johnson, who you might play a different position,
Speaker 2: but he six or five, So uh yeah, I think
Speaker 2: Lonnie Walker's got got another destination in him at some point.
Speaker 1: Too many guards on the dance flow, Too many guards. Okay,
Speaker 1: next one, Hey, guys, love the show. I have a
Speaker 1: bold prediction. Then I'm one hundred percent convinced.
Speaker 4: Will happen this offseason. Listen to this.
Speaker 1: The Lakers will become the first team in NBA history
Speaker 1: to hire a woman as their head coach. Do you
Speaker 1: have any big predictions of your own for the NBA
Speaker 1: coaching carousel this offseason? Thanks so much, love the show.
Speaker 1: John from DC he is, I mean, that's a bold prediction.
Speaker 4: That's a bold prediction.
Speaker 1: I mean on two accounts, one that we finally get
Speaker 1: a woman head coach, and then he's saying it's.
Speaker 4: The Lakers as really the first team.
Speaker 1: So we'll see John, but task Yeah, do you have
Speaker 1: any other bold predictions when it comes to these the
Speaker 1: coaching positions.
Speaker 2: Yeah, not as bold as John. Hopefully it happens if
Speaker 2: it was the Los Angeles Lakers. Yeah, that would be
Speaker 2: an even more prominent story and it should happen. At
Speaker 2: some point. There's only three coaching vacancy yeah, yeah, so
Speaker 2: the Lakers being the most prominent, and yeah, we hinted
Speaker 2: at the Kings, who don't have one currently and the
Speaker 2: Charlotte Hornets. And my bold prediction, it's not the boldest
Speaker 2: of bold because this man has been a coach for
Speaker 2: a long time. But Mike D'Antoni is kind of just
Speaker 2: flown out of the radar for a bit. He was
Speaker 2: a Pelicans consultant this past year, he was a Nets
Speaker 2: assistant the year before that, and Rockets which before that.
Speaker 2: He's obviously been a coach for a very long time.
Speaker 2: He's seventy years old. We got to talk to him
Speaker 2: at Summer League the other year, Tray and I and
Speaker 2: coach is just in his blood. I think he's got
Speaker 2: he's got an itch to scratch. He's got to get back,
Speaker 2: whether it's the Hornets as he's been rumored to, uh
Speaker 2: be it. Definitely a leader in the clubhouse. It feels
Speaker 2: like as the as a guy who could coach there
Speaker 2: obviously with him and LaMelo Ball juicy stuff, I think
Speaker 2: I think he gets back back into the mix, but
Speaker 2: not all that bold. Gotta be honest, John from DC,
Speaker 2: I like your call better.
Speaker 1: So there are three open spots right now. But you
Speaker 1: said Hornets Kings and Lakers could be more though coming.
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't know what's happening with Quin Snyder
Speaker 1: in the Jazz right that one.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they sort of said they're going to keep him,
Speaker 5: though I think I know that can change, but the
Speaker 5: sort of first initial response was like he's our guide.
Speaker 1: I would say, who's another potential? The doctor the doc
Speaker 1: Rivers in Philadelphia is a solid one and uh.
Speaker 2: Tibbs, I guess or not?
Speaker 4: Tis do seem like not a lot of buzz? Can
Speaker 4: you start running out of them after those?
Speaker 5: I think teams has got probably twenty to thirty games
Speaker 5: off next season to correct that thing. If he can
Speaker 5: get them at least minimum five hundred, he probably can
Speaker 5: hang on. But they get off to a four and
Speaker 5: sixteen start something, he's probably gone, but sounds like he's
Speaker 5: staying for now.
Speaker 4: I saw.
Speaker 1: I think it was Billy Boy Bill Simmons tweeting the
Speaker 1: most fun NBA summer coaching outcomes would be D'Antoni with
Speaker 1: the Hornets, Mark Jackson with the Kings, Doc Rivers with
Speaker 1: the Lakers, and then g Right.
Speaker 4: With the Sixers. College coach. Then that's what Billy Boy
Speaker 4: is saying.
Speaker 2: Just screams fun.
Speaker 4: I mean nothing more.
Speaker 1: Than Mark Jackson coaching the Kings. But yeah, what do
Speaker 1: you think any bold predictions when it comes to any
Speaker 1: of these Well.
Speaker 5: The D'Antoni connection with Mitch Kupchak is being rumored about Charlotte,
Speaker 5: but I think the Hornets and D'Antoni is a proven coach.
Speaker 5: You know his team's going to play really good offense.
Speaker 5: But that's certainly not the issue with Charlotte. Their offense
Speaker 5: is pretty good. They get out and score. I think
Speaker 5: they need someone and they need the personnel to be
Speaker 5: able to do it. But I think their focus has
Speaker 5: to be on a defense first team because you saw
Speaker 5: the Horners can score one hundred and fifty but can
Speaker 5: see one hundred and sixty. So that's the thing. And
Speaker 5: you know, D'Antoni has been great, but I think for
Speaker 5: a youngish team, you need someone who can maybe connect
Speaker 5: a little more to these younger players and also install
Speaker 5: a defensive mindset first.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of these guys are they're oldies. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know, D'Antoni, Mark Doc Trey got any bold coaching predictions?
Speaker 4: My bold coaching prediction is that Quinn Snyder doesn't coach
Speaker 4: next season. He just had hip replacement surgery. There was
Speaker 4: a lot of buzz during the season about would he
Speaker 4: be a potential Lakers coach, would the Jazz want to
Speaker 4: move on from him, like LI say, And it seems
Speaker 4: a little bit like they would still be interested in
Speaker 4: keeping him. The Jazz aren't a franchise that changes coaches
Speaker 4: a lot, but it did seem to just kind of
Speaker 4: come out of nowhere the idea that Quinn Snader could
Speaker 4: possibly not be coaching the Jazz next season. They had
Speaker 4: a stressful season, a disappointing season. If he's already unsure
Speaker 4: and he's rehabbing from a major injury, I could see
Speaker 4: him deciding to take a year off before figuring out
Speaker 4: the next move.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he'll get another job as totally kind of whenever
Speaker 5: he's ready sort of thing. So he could definitely afford
Speaker 5: to take a year off.
Speaker 1: I guess my bold prediction will be heading into next season.
Speaker 1: If the Nets got off to a brutal start, couldn't
Speaker 1: Ash be gone? If the Hawks got off to another
Speaker 1: brutal start, could.
Speaker 4: Nate McMillan be gone?
Speaker 1: Could if the Blazers got off to a garbage start?
Speaker 1: You know, is it a short run for Chauncey Billups.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll just throw that into the middle.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he may have a bit of leeway considering the
Speaker 5: moving forward with things, you know, in a different direction.
Speaker 5: The Litlard situation is probably a big factor there as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, that's but if he's back and h and
Speaker 1: stuff like that. I mean, there's expectations and if you
Speaker 1: got to switch up something. We always say it, if
Speaker 1: you get off to the garbage start, it's like, well
Speaker 1: you're not getting rid of all the players at this point,
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to do something. So good stuff there from.
Speaker 4: Who was that job?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I definitely you mentioned some of the situations that
Speaker 2: ended poorly there Portland Brooklyn. I was going through the
Speaker 2: thirty teams and wondering all those coaches there because those
Speaker 2: ones I thought, Portland's still there, you Chauncey, Bob's just
Speaker 2: just signed five years, right, so that's he's probably he's
Speaker 2: probably a bit of a leash and they love him.
Speaker 2: Although the team has not performed.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, well but that you also were like, let's
Speaker 5: tank this season.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I think of the three I said, he is the
Speaker 1: most likely to still be there for a year or
Speaker 1: two or whatever until they can like figure out where,
Speaker 1: you know, where that team is going.
Speaker 4: But Nash, who else?
Speaker 1: I mean Doc of course, obviously Quinn Snyder, and then
Speaker 1: I think Nate night Millan. I don't think he would
Speaker 1: have the longest leash in the world. That's true with
Speaker 1: some expectations there in Atlanta.
Speaker 2: Yeah, only three. That's three vacancies. It's got to be
Speaker 2: a low for an offseason that it can increase.
Speaker 1: To me, it always goes through these weird cycles. It
Speaker 1: feels like where there's like ten and then there's like
Speaker 1: three ten.
Speaker 4: It's like it feels like we've had a lot of
Speaker 4: change over recently, even though like at the bottom of
Speaker 4: the standings, almost every team has a fairly new coach
Speaker 4: except for kind of Detroit.
Speaker 2: In cases it's like a wave. I guess we are
Speaker 2: at the beach, well, speaking to beaches. I know, dunk
Speaker 2: a Rose. It's not dunk Rose, dunkle Rose. I discovered
Speaker 2: you two years ago just as Lockdown was starting in
Speaker 2: the UK. Listening to your pod kept me somewhat sane
Speaker 2: when we were only allowed out once a day for exercise.
Speaker 2: Really big fan, thanks for the daily laughs. I love
Speaker 2: two things. First, I love basketball. Second, I love the
Speaker 2: ocean and coast. I am a professor in coastal oceanography
Speaker 2: at the University of Southampton UK. I researched coastal processes
Speaker 2: for a living.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 2: So whenever you do beach step in, my first thought.
Speaker 4: Which beach?
Speaker 2: Which is your favorite beach worldwide? That's from Ivan h
Speaker 2: in Southampton, UK.
Speaker 1: Never heard anybody say I love the coast like just
Speaker 1: like that specific but it makes sense seeing what he does. Yes,
Speaker 1: what beach are you on in that? In the opening clip,
Speaker 1: Grace Bear one of the best?
Speaker 5: It is absolutely there.
Speaker 1: It is like considered one of the best beaches in
Speaker 1: the world.
Speaker 5: Yes, yes it is you disagree?
Speaker 1: Disagree?
Speaker 5: No, no, no, no, it is beau It's just one
Speaker 5: of those where where did you see that rating for it?
Speaker 5: Because there are so many.
Speaker 4: Probably exactly.
Speaker 5: Tourism beaches are great, love beaches. Where are my beaches at?
Speaker 5: Because the funny thing is growing up in Australia, all right,
Speaker 5: and then living in North America. As soon as people
Speaker 5: hear from Australia, they assume you're a beach balm, surfy
Speaker 5: like on the beach. I grew up in a little town.
Speaker 5: You know, we had city beaches which were not very
Speaker 5: pleasant because there was a lot of ocean traffic coming
Speaker 5: through there, so they went wavy. It was like kind
Speaker 5: of gross. And then when we went there be.
Speaker 1: Like living on the lake erie or yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: And then when we would go away camping, we would
Speaker 5: go down to the coast, which is further down south
Speaker 5: in Victoria, where it would get freezing down there. And
Speaker 5: so even in summer my memories of when we were
Speaker 5: kids and would go to the beach, it was like
Speaker 5: about a kilometer walk from the like shore to the water.
Speaker 5: Anyway you're in the water.
Speaker 2: It's freeze.
Speaker 5: I remember, I remember going to the water. Why do
Speaker 5: people love the beach so much? It's not that pleasant.
Speaker 5: It's like you're you're super hot and you're outside, you
Speaker 5: go in the water and you're like this is cold now.
Speaker 5: So yeah, it wasn't until I sort of went up
Speaker 5: to Northern Australia, Queensland and even I don't know if
Speaker 5: you actually you and JD might have been to Bondai Beach.
Speaker 1: Have you guys been there at all? I've you've been
Speaker 1: to a weight Heaven Beach.
Speaker 5: In Queensland, yeah, Wit Sundays, yes, yes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is like unbelievable. It looks thick. Yeah, like
Speaker 4: the photos. Have you been there?
Speaker 5: J D Buondai, I've been. Yeah, I actually haven't been
Speaker 5: to Bandaid.
Speaker 6: But it isn't Binet Beach like in Sydney's in Sydney, yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 6: it's cool because there's cities right there awesome, like whatever,
Speaker 6: Port Saide Town or whatever.
Speaker 1: It's like Barcelona that way. It's like wow, I mean
Speaker 1: a cool city.
Speaker 4: The beach is right there.
Speaker 6: They walk over people surfing right right there.
Speaker 2: It's great. Yeah.
Speaker 6: Have you been at Port Douglas, Yes, yeah, it's I
Speaker 6: don't actually remember you guys.
Speaker 5: Douglas Beach from what I remember, not super wavy, very
Speaker 5: like a humid up there. The water is great. Yeah,
Speaker 5: beach is fine. But I think the best beach that
Speaker 5: I've been to in Australia is near Syny's in Manly,
Speaker 5: a little place just out of Sydney.
Speaker 2: There.
Speaker 5: The water there is beautiful, refreshing, not freezing cold. Also
Speaker 5: close to the sort of city center of Sydney there,
Speaker 5: but just that beautiful place.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: The thing about Northern Australia is you can't go in
Speaker 6: the water during the summer because there's stingers right.
Speaker 5: Well, because of several reasons. Yea, stingers, sharks, crocodiles. When
Speaker 5: we're the first time I took my wife for Roxanne,
Speaker 5: We're in Port Douglas. We're swimming along. Then all of
Speaker 5: a sudden, the guys on the megaphone like everyone out
Speaker 5: of the water, everyone, and I'm like, I'm like, what
Speaker 5: for and just get out, just get out. And you
Speaker 5: see a guy up there looking out like this, we
Speaker 5: can see a crocodile just over there. I'm like, you kidding,
Speaker 5: Like what a cliche that is? You know, my wife's
Speaker 5: first time to Australia. Get out of the water, you
Speaker 5: might get killed. Well that's right, people, people, it's not
Speaker 5: really like that, is it. And I'm like nah, then
Speaker 5: there's like you know, get out anyway. So for me,
Speaker 5: So your favorite beach, my favorite beach, and so so Brazil.
Speaker 5: Rio has got the reputation like okay, we've got the
Speaker 5: you know, most beautiful city of the beautiful beaches. And
Speaker 5: it's true, it is true, like Rio's two beaches, Coca
Speaker 5: Comana Epanima Beach like spectacular because the water is great,
Speaker 5: temperatures beautiful, the sand is nice and there's also so
Speaker 5: much action going on as well that they play. They
Speaker 5: play this game down there called foot volley right where
Speaker 5: it's volleyball but soccer, so you don't use your hands.
Speaker 5: This is the most incredible skill I've ever seen any
Speaker 5: splake it with their and you know, catching off their
Speaker 5: chests and heading it over and stuff like that, and
Speaker 5: it's going bopping back and forth like that. Unbelievable stuff.
Speaker 5: But the whole atmosphere, the whole vibe down there is spectacling.
Speaker 5: And I was there for New Years Eve, so the
Speaker 5: whole city was like really going to move to party.
Speaker 5: It was beautiful, beautiful, But unfortunately I didn't get any
Speaker 5: photos of this because they say, you know, you've gotta
Speaker 5: be careful on the beach, don't take any valuables down there.
Speaker 5: Because I was. I was last night. I'm like, because
Speaker 5: I was like, I didn't take it. I didn't take
Speaker 5: my camera.
Speaker 4: It didn't matter.
Speaker 5: They came into my room anyway, nick my stuff.
Speaker 4: I probably would have been safe. Don't take anything to
Speaker 4: the beach while.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but yeah, anyway, I just remember the whole like
Speaker 5: the whole experience of it was was was really really awesome,
Speaker 5: so good one.
Speaker 6: You know why that's so in in like implanted in
Speaker 6: your brain because you didn't take a camera.
Speaker 5: Pictures.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well this was the old film camera as well,
Speaker 5: so you know you have I had a little pouch
Speaker 5: and everything like that.
Speaker 4: But these are those were great beaches. Play basically you
Speaker 4: just played geo. What about this beach? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Do you have another beach you'd like to throw it
Speaker 1: into the mix.
Speaker 2: I think every beach has been named, every beach in
Speaker 2: the on what about.
Speaker 4: Your your home beautiful beach?
Speaker 2: Yes, everywhere in Greece is beautiful. Mediterranean sea if you
Speaker 2: happen to be on the beach is beautiful. I've met
Speaker 2: Barcelona is an incredible one.
Speaker 1: Barcelona's a good one. I just think one's cool because
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, the city is right there.
Speaker 5: Those are those are pretty.
Speaker 2: Fun and rambling on the rambles and then you just
Speaker 2: jump jump on out of the beach. Yeah. Any beach
Speaker 2: where there's great pool or water side eating, that's the
Speaker 2: most important thing, like good gazebos or whatever you want
Speaker 2: to call it. It could be it could it could
Speaker 2: be really crappy, like nobody wants to eat and sand.
Speaker 2: But if you've got really good ability to transition from
Speaker 2: sand to a seat and eat. Yeah, oh done that
Speaker 2: in Israel is so good, and Tel Aviv so good.
Speaker 2: Life is good.
Speaker 5: I think I stumbled across vegeted vegetarianism increase increased.
Speaker 4: Factually I did. I did because I dropped it on
Speaker 4: the beach.
Speaker 5: I was on the beach and we went to one
Speaker 5: of these, one of those beautiful cafes, and the salad
Speaker 5: they brought out, the salad for someone.
Speaker 4: I said, what is that.
Speaker 2: Telling you?
Speaker 4: I'm telling you crazier than the time that you brought
Speaker 4: to me. It was back to no, I'm telling you,
Speaker 4: And I said, I first got out of.
Speaker 5: Scat and I said I want that. And I said
Speaker 5: how many meetings? And no, I said, all right, I mean,
Speaker 5: I mean I'm going for this out of salad, out
Speaker 5: of salad without me unbelievable, unbelieving here, crazy stuff.
Speaker 6: In the land of discoveredarian I.
Speaker 5: Was like, Wow, what a moment this is in my
Speaker 5: Life's a bad funny thing about grease though. In Athens
Speaker 5: don't go out for a meal at night. If Panathonakos
Speaker 5: or Olympiakos are playing in the champions like, waiters don't
Speaker 5: want to know you there they don't want to. The
Speaker 5: game's on. They're just like right and you said, like
Speaker 5: I'm ready, and the guys go, what do you want?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I love that type of service actually, especially
Speaker 1: like us.
Speaker 4: They're just pissed.
Speaker 2: Respect it.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Did you see Kevin Durant' video at Olympia Basketball.
Speaker 5: I know he's in your that Olympia Coast.
Speaker 2: Game and yeah there's there's flares.
Speaker 4: Yeah crazy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's like this is the end of the world.
Speaker 2: You can hear on the in Greek is telling everybody
Speaker 2: to get that fuck away from those people. One side
Speaker 2: of the building looks like it's on fire. Wow, with
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant is filming it. Love he was there. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he's a game. Yeah cool.
Speaker 1: I will just add to this beach conversation, it's a
Speaker 1: different type of beach because I mean, think most of
Speaker 1: the beaches we're talking about, like just those just well
Speaker 1: great Spay is like twelve miles right, just pure stand
Speaker 1: all that. But I love like a coastal beach too.
Speaker 1: Like you gotta like it's an adventure to get down
Speaker 1: to you know what I mean, a lot of stairs,
Speaker 1: it's a hell a lot of work to get there.
Speaker 1: But then Once you're down there, it's like you're so isolated,
Speaker 1: like the Elgarve in Portugal, like southern part of Portugal.
Speaker 1: A lot of beautiful beaches like that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, a deserted yeah, like a dirt trail to get there.
Speaker 6: Saint Martin, Yeah, yeah, yeah, Kubacoe been there.
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you where.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's sort of the I think it's the northeastern
Speaker 6: part of the island on the Dutch side. Uh is
Speaker 6: it on it? Well anyways, it's uh, you have to
Speaker 6: well I haven't been there since nineteen ninety nine, but
Speaker 6: you you had to go down. There's just a guy
Speaker 6: with a cooler selling a bottle of beer for a
Speaker 6: dollar kind of thing. Clothing optional, great waves and like Limestone,
Speaker 6: like there's no restaurants, there's nothing. Yeah, just like a
Speaker 6: guy with a cart on your way in and then
Speaker 6: the dudes just selling beers that are their coolers. Those
Speaker 6: are the best.
Speaker 1: And if you're going to those beaches, like you're going
Speaker 1: to the beaches, yeah we got because it's a chore
Speaker 1: to get to some of them. Yeah, And probably because
Speaker 1: of that, there's less kids at those type of beaches
Speaker 1: because yeah, you're venturing down with all your crap.
Speaker 2: Some serious waves. I'm sure some.
Speaker 1: Good beaches, great beaches, any other beaches that Yeah, a
Speaker 1: lot of great beasts.
Speaker 4: Beaches on the Pacific Coast Highway, we saw a lot
Speaker 4: of awesome ones. It's like just cool when you're dry
Speaker 4: down the road and it's like ocean to one side,
Speaker 4: gigantic mountains to the other, and you got to figure
Speaker 4: out a way to get there. But tass, you mentioned
Speaker 4: it the worst part of the beach, it's the sand.
Speaker 4: So how about a beach with no sand? Schoolhouse Beach,
Speaker 4: Washington Island, Wisconsin, all smooth limestone rocks. There's only like
Speaker 4: a handful of these pebble beaches in the world, and
Speaker 4: for whatever reason, one of them is in Wisconsin. Local
Speaker 4: laws prevent you from taking the stones off the beach
Speaker 4: because glaciers put them there. I do have a picture
Speaker 4: of some burs hanging out.
Speaker 6: All right.
Speaker 4: But yeah, this thing is cool and crisp and clean.
Speaker 4: It's slippery when you get into the water, when you're
Speaker 4: when you're on the on the shore, you're probably gonna
Speaker 4: want to wear sandals because it's a it's very pinchity pinchity.
Speaker 4: But once you get into the sand or into the
Speaker 4: into the water. It's a little slippery because of all
Speaker 4: of the gigantic rocks underneath. But man, it's weird. It's
Speaker 4: just weird to be walking on rocks and then you're
Speaker 4: in the beach.
Speaker 6: Keep talking about that's okay.
Speaker 4: I sent it late. I sent it to myself instead
Speaker 4: of sending it to you. A little bit of a
Speaker 4: little bit of a botch, A little bit of a
Speaker 4: bit of a botch on my part. But but big
Speaker 4: old limestone in Door County, Wisconsin. It's also really cold.
Speaker 4: It's also really really cold in the in the water
Speaker 4: because it's probably Lake Michigan. I don't know, I don't
Speaker 4: know exactly, but I would assume that's the one that's
Speaker 4: stretching there.
Speaker 2: So what about I mean, we're killing some time. What
Speaker 2: about Pebble Beach in California. You guys been there.
Speaker 1: There, we go see you look at these smooth stone Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can just yeah, you can just I can picture
Speaker 1: somebody trying to walk across that without a sandals.
Speaker 4: Yeah you do. You make a little fishing trap there.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah. You know. That's the other good thing is
Speaker 4: that you're just gonna make a lot of structures because
Speaker 4: there's gigantic rocks. My buddy Adam specifically likes to just
Speaker 4: pick up the biggest thing you can find at all times.
Speaker 4: Whenever he finds like, I'm going to pick up some
Speaker 4: big rocks. I think he was trying to make a bathtub.
Speaker 1: Wow, Wisconsin, Wisconsin.
Speaker 4: Beach, Wisconsin Beach, schoolhouse beach there.
Speaker 1: It is all right, let's take one more break, but
Speaker 1: when we come back, don't go anywhere. We have an
Speaker 1: incredible thing to show you. Tast teased it the other day,

Speaker 4: put you in the mood.
Speaker 5: I couldn't tell you a single bad bunny.
Speaker 1: Do you know what he looks like?
Speaker 4: If I if I showed that, I think so. He
Speaker 4: doesn't look like a bunny.
Speaker 5: I'm guessing he's.
Speaker 4: He's a rapper.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, okay, final one here, we had to show
Speaker 1: this to you as we start wrapping up Beach step in.
Speaker 1: Hello again, donkey boys. I mean I emailed a while
Speaker 1: back teasing you as a tattoo you guys would enjoy. Well,
Speaker 1: the time has come, and as a fellow basketball sico,
Speaker 1: I wanted to permanently express my love for the game
Speaker 1: and how it's gotten me through tough times, example finding
Speaker 1: myself stuck in life a lot. I felt the wedgie
Speaker 1: and we're showing you the tattoo here on YouTube. I
Speaker 1: felt this wedgie symbolizes that, you know, the being stuck
Speaker 1: in life, and you guys inspired me when I was
Speaker 1: coming up with a design that is from Matt b
Speaker 1: Matt Barrios incredible. He take it, taking the the wedgie
Speaker 1: design that we had on the T shirts are there
Speaker 1: over at no dunks dot com and putting it right
Speaker 1: there on his arm and I got to say, that
Speaker 1: looks great.
Speaker 4: Yeah, very cool. I like it on the front of
Speaker 4: the bicep. Is what it looks like here from Matt.
Speaker 6: Oh interesting. I thought it was the tricep.
Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, I guess it could be.
Speaker 1: I thought it was his forearm. But no, no, you
Speaker 1: guys are right, because there's the creek.
Speaker 6: It looks like I think you're right it is the bicet.
Speaker 4: Wow, it's weird that I thought it was. Well, what
Speaker 4: do you think? You let you like it? Trey JD
Speaker 4: fan of this. It might get one yourself.
Speaker 6: I have no tattoos, so I don't know. It would
Speaker 6: be stupid for me to get a wedgie test works.
Speaker 4: You also have the appearance of a guy that looks
Speaker 4: like he has tattoos.
Speaker 6: I'm sure you've heard that it's more cutting edge to
Speaker 6: not have any tatoo.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you veered, you swerved.
Speaker 6: Here punk over here, and.
Speaker 4: You're obviously uh clean, very clear.
Speaker 1: How many how many No Dunks? I threw that in
Speaker 1: your quotes? Tattoos do we have?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 4: What are we up to? Three?
Speaker 5: Yes? Well one has two though, that's right Liz. Liz
Speaker 5: has the Stata's generic logo, and then she has the
Speaker 5: me right, and then old As has got the very
Speaker 5: solid play on his sort of trip right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so we're up to four No Dunk tattoos
Speaker 1: in the world.
Speaker 7: Wild stuff any other maybe, uh, ideas you could like
Speaker 7: suggest for somebody like a no Dunks inspired tattoo tray,
Speaker 7: Like I mean, you know, big b four, Uh, that's all.
Speaker 4: You got, Like you could get a beef you could
Speaker 4: get like a meat emoji on you, but I don't
Speaker 4: think people would know right away that it's for us.
Speaker 4: So maybe you would have to have like a little
Speaker 4: Andre Drummond grabbing the meat emoji. Suddenly you got an
Speaker 4: Andre drumming tattoo. And yeah, I wouldn't hey, look I'll
Speaker 4: throw it out into the world. Wouldn't mind seeing a
Speaker 4: temper boy tattoo? Yeah, especially that little logo we have
Speaker 4: on one of our t shirts. That's good. That's a good.
Speaker 4: That's good. Right, you're the angry guy your up run,
Speaker 4: you should get one.
Speaker 6: Yeah, the Pooh God, the old poo God T shirt,
Speaker 6: that would be a great tattoo. Yeah, he had angel
Speaker 6: wings toilet paper sort of flying around.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: I think there's Latin on it.
Speaker 4: Yep, there is.
Speaker 1: I have that T shirt somewhere, so I'll try and
Speaker 1: find ad one too.
Speaker 4: Maybe that like just the drawing of Lee doing the
Speaker 4: thumbs up with a but like his mouth is extra wide.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah, I like the pick. I always tweeted
Speaker 1: every once in a while. I think it's one of
Speaker 1: the funnier bits we did where we got everybody to
Speaker 1: put their thumbs into the shot in the face and
Speaker 1: it's like it feels like there's like fifteen thumbs.
Speaker 5: That was early dies.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, a good call from Eric Koon here in
Speaker 4: the stream team. Wasn't there somebody that had a basketball
Speaker 4: turn up? Oh yeah, you guys, awesome, it was there was.
Speaker 4: That's good.
Speaker 1: Came up to five.
Speaker 4: Yeap pocket dog tattoo I see suggested here from Bomb
Speaker 4: that'd be nice.
Speaker 6: I think someone should get tasked doing the Raptors win.
Speaker 1: Oh, the one I always post with the one thumb.
Speaker 6: That'd be great.
Speaker 4: Raptor on his shirt for a that's a good one too.
Speaker 1: Just giving you so many ideas. I've been thinking about
Speaker 1: getting tattooed, but you're right, idiot, Like at a certain
Speaker 1: point now it's like I guess you you sort of go.
Speaker 5: Why Dwyane White zincd up these things?
Speaker 4: This is a new development.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he got it recently, he's got one, Like I
Speaker 5: know he's got that. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Hey, because he because he's like, I always have my
Speaker 4: shirt off, so.
Speaker 5: I put cool because I remember him saying, like, you know,
Speaker 5: because he was really in the major tat hera and
Speaker 5: he was like they just weren't for me. Dwight Howard
Speaker 5: bit the same, right Howard went from nothing to like
Speaker 5: just cut overed.

Speaker 6: I just want like all sleeps.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, what about the J. J.
Speaker 5: Reddick one sleeve?
