2

39
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 2: We look back at the busy NBA weekend. We do

40
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: winners and losers. Trey get us started here. Who's your

41
00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 2: big winner of the NBA weekend?

42
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 3: Look perfect weekend.

43
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 5: They lost to the Timberwolves on Friday, But the Orlando

44
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 5: Magic are my winners of the weekend because they got

45
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 5: one of their biggest wins of the season. I think

46
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 5: on Sunday afternoon, snapping the Calves sixteen game win streak

47
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 5: after Paala Boncaro hit a sixteen.

48
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 3: Foot or nice little push off simple jumper.

49
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 5: Calves missed a ton of threes in the last one

50
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 5: minute of this game, but a big win for Orlando,

51
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 5: who had lost five straight, including two to the Raptors

52
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 5: one to the Balls. Since then, they won three of

53
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 5: five on a road trip, including beating the Bucks in Milwaukee.

54
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 5: That's nice and the Calves in Cleveland. That's really really nice.

55
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 5: The turning point in this one was the end of

56
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,639
Speaker 5: the third quarter. Things were going the Calves way. They're

57
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 5: up eight. Three straight turnovers, though forced by the Magic,

58
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 5: turned into ten points for them. And then in the

59
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 5: fourth quarter they shot just well enough I thought to

60
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 5: kind of fend off Cleveland. Anthony Black hit a couple

61
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 5: of really timely three pointers in the fourth for Orlando.

62
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 5: You look down the road potential first round series here

63
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 5: assuming well, I mean, a lot of things have to

64
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 5: play out for an act Cleveland Orlando. But they faced

65
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 5: off last year in the playoffs, they could meet in

66
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 5: the one eight matchup again obviously advantaged Cleveland. Clearly, these

67
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 5: two teams have gone opposite ways since last year's playoffs,

68
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 5: but Orlando would make.

69
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 3: It pretty tough on Cleveland.

70
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 5: I do believe in a first round series just because

71
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 5: they've got great wing size in Boncaro and Franz Wagner,

72
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 5: neither of what who like played great, but do have

73
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 5: the size and the physicality to give a smaller Caves

74
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 5: team who didn't have that in Mobley yesterday gave them

75
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 5: some problems. I thought thirty four free throws attempted for Orlando,

76
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 5: eleven for Polo, six for Fronz. They just looked bigger

77
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 5: than DeAndre Hunter, who had a great look at a

78
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 5: three pointer from the corner and he went Paul George

79
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 5: mode off the top right corner of the back. That's

80
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 5: not what you're aiming for from the corner, but from

81
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 5: the Cave side of things. Like I said, no, Mobile,

82
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 5: they just won sixteen straight games and they had a

83
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 5: chance to win this.

84
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, the definitions all you can't win, all that went off,

85
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 2: but the magic picked at least I thought a good

86
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 2: day being on national television against a good team to

87
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 2: snap the win streak, to hit three pointers. I was

88
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 2: thinking like if you tuned into that game on the

89
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 2: weekend and you're like, oh, magic not bad thirteen to

90
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 2: thirty one forty two from deep. This team's pretty good, right.

91
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 2: They took this team to seven games last postseason. No,

92
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 2: that's not really the case. They can't hit a three

93
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 2: to save their life. But this one they hit more

94
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: than Cleveland and even Contavious Coldwell popeit won. That was

95
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: a timely one over on the wing, but good timing

96
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 2: if you just tuned in to see the magic for

97
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:23,239
Speaker 2: the first time.

98
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know how Casey CACP was that open.

99
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: Weird weird communication there from DeAndre Hunter and Donovan Mitchell.

100
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: What did they do it? I mean they just left

101
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: him wide open. Deandrender was having a problem guarding Paul Bunco.

102
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: That's where Evan Mobley would be right there guarding that

103
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: guy all night long. And Mobley now the favorite for

104
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: a Defensive Player of the Year. He's been doing it

105
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 1: for a long time and now he's probably gonna win

106
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: it the way things are going for the Cavs defensively. Yeah,

107
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: if DeAndre Nderds had a bad game two of eleven

108
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: from this one and uh and it was Donovan Mitchell's

109
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: first game back from m Groen Entry, so he was

110
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: a little off as well, but very off that DeAndre

111
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: Hunter's shot that hit the side of the backboard. Yeah,

112
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 1: it was just like, I guess he's just a little

113
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: bit too far in the corner and maybe didn't know

114
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,159
Speaker 1: he should be there. But weird.

115
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: The Magic were in scramble mode, like like they were

116
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 2: looks that they would have all season long. Knockdown, there's

117
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 2: no doubt, but at least they challenge these They have

118
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 2: guys screaming out. They talked about it on the broadcast,

119
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 2: how they are like a really elite defensive team the

120
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 2: Magic are. But yeah, I mean, then you kept seeing

121
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 2: Jared Allen just kept grabbing offensive rebound and kicking it out.

122
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 2: You think the next one's going in.

123
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 3: It didn't. He grabs another offensive rebound, kicks it out.

124
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 3: You think that one's going in. It didn't.

125
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 2: Because Mitchell missed a couple that you know he feels

126
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 2: comfortable taking. And maybe it was a little bit of

127
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 2: Russ just coming back hit a huge dunk in this game.

128
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I did, sir.

129
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 2: But yeah, I will say if they do somehow match

130
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 2: up in a one eight matchup, I don't think it

131
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: goes seven games this year.

132
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 3: Five seems good.

133
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 5: But the things that Orlando can do well are the

134
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 5: ways you could theoretically beat the Calves. Right, It's like

135
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 5: the Calves, despite the fact that usually they're playing two

136
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 5: seven foot they're kind of a finesse team. The ball

137
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 5: moves a lot, they're skinnier dudes. It's dribble handoffs, it's

138
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 5: an offense forward team. You got to be able to

139
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,239
Speaker 5: push them off their spots and get them out of rhythm,

140
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 5: which is something a team like Orlando can do. The

141
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 5: problem is keeping up scoring wise, So you look at

142
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 5: other teams in the league, it's like the Bucks have

143
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 5: good size, not necessarily perimeter size because Kuzma's kind of

144
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 5: their biggest guy out there, but the big one obviously

145
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 5: would be okay, see, okay, See, he's got wings who

146
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 5: are super physical. They foul everybody for forty eight minutes,

147
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 5: to the point where you just can't call fouls on

148
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 5: them every single time. So that could be a problem.

149
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 5: That's an NBA Finals matchup, but we're not to come

150
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 5: to that, so I think Cleveland would be happy to

151
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 5: address that in the final round of the playoffs if

152
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 5: it comes up.

153
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, Orlando's moving up shooting that ball. As you've brought

154
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 1: up up to thirty one point one percent on the season.

155
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: That's moving up. They were like thirty point five a

156
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: few weeks ago. So good, here they go.

157
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 3: Here they go, oh yeah, let's keep it going. Task.

158
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 3: Who do you have for a winner of the weekend?

159
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: Well, the showdown that happened in Detroit between Okasee and

160
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: the Pistons was a great one. Fans got their money's worth.

161
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: I mean they were just oohing and aweing every single

162
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: play that the Thunder were able to do. Now, they

163
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: didn't have a bunch of guys, no Chet, no Jalen Williams,

164
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: and they lost Lou Dorton in this game, but the

165
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: oohs and ahs from the crowd were very vocal. I

166
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: think Thunder fans are starting to accumulate throughout the United

167
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: States of America and say, wow, we're jumping on that wagon.

168
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: Because those people were in there to watch Shae throw

169
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: it up to heart and sheen with just the left

170
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: hand all you crush. There was a lot of oohs

171
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: and ahs. And then Shaye putting Beasley on skates. I

172
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: love it when a guy puts a guy on skates

173
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: and then decides as he tries to recover defensively to

174
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: go buy him again. Just two moves, just get you,

175
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: and then the threes with space that were happening out there.

176
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: A few minutes left of Start, Thompson went flying back

177
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: and Shaye crushed that shot easily. I think it was

178
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: like twelve feet between Shae and Start Thompson. I mean,

179
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: we got to measure these distances. That was. They do

180
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: what she does. They track him, Yeah, they track him.

181
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: I don't really buy it, but anyways, I guess they

182
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: do yeah better ones. So how did they do that?

183
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: They just do the standard cameras.

184
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 2: I'm still trying to figure out dunk score many Shane

185
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 2: Sharp had a dunk score over one hundred last night.

186
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 2: It was a fine putback dunk. The guy can fly,

187
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: but like it was somehow like thirty points better than

188
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 2: Anthony Edwards who had a huge dunk.

189
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 3: Mitchell had that big one. Like they say, I'm still

190
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 3: doing my head in on dunk score. Man, you got

191
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 3: to figure out your own track.

192
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:33,199
Speaker 1: Well, the tawk guy or whatever that camera is called. Anyway,

193
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: they were just doing beautiful stuffup there and shape when

194
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: he went back af forgetting that space, he did the

195
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: mean face which he doesn't usually do. He keeps it

196
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: quite sort of emotionless out there. But yeah, even the

197
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: Pistons broadcasters Greg Kelser as he saw Isaiah Joe pull

198
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,239
Speaker 1: up for a deep three, he just said, ooh ah,

199
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: Isaiah and Joe would salute that. I don't know what

200
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: that really means, but it was funny. That's all he

201
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 1: could pay. Yeah, that's what it was. It sounds like

202
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:07,719
Speaker 1: a joke I would make anyways. Kason Wallace was awesome again.

203
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 5: Shake kills with Alexander. Two first names and one last

204
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 5: name thrown in the middle.

205
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 3: Sure, Wallace.

206
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: I mean it's more of a last name than a

207
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: first name, but it's fifty fifth.

208
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,319
Speaker 3: That's a good one way.

209
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: And these measurements are crazy in here right now where

210
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: Kasa Walls was awesome, he's starting before Jalen Williams. That's

211
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: the interesting thing about the Cason Wallace again we've been

212
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: talking about. He was awesome against the Boston Celtics last week.

213
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: In this game, you could see the left he finishes

214
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 1: a couple of times. He had an awesome dunk. He

215
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: splashed a couple threes, one to seal it with a

216
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: minute forty five left, as two guys went to Shay.

217
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: He was wide open, same sort of thing he did

218
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: against the Boston Celtics. He sealed it and he stole

219
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: it straight from kid bodying up a guy only at

220
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 1: six three. He looked great and he stole it from

221
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,719
Speaker 1: Kate twenty points nine to fifteen, three steals. Again, he's

222
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: just starting because of the injuries. But it's just so

223
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: much fun to see this Thunder team. It's ridiculous how

224
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 1: much this guy play in the playoffs. Probably ten minutes

225
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: a game, sometimes maybe twenty minutes a game. Sometimes it's

226
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 1: it's interesting because they lost lou Dordan. This one he

227
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: slipped and he heard his growing. Hopefully it's not too serious.

228
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: He missed the next game for the Thunder this past weekend,

229
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: but he tripped on a teammate's foot and it was

230
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 1: reviewed for the hostile act and that's why JB. Bickerstaff

231
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 1: he was mad. Yeah, the postgame press conference for coach JB. Bickerstaff,

232
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: there was a lot happening. There was a lot. Sorry,

233
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: sorry for all our podcast listeners who had to listen

234
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: to that, but I had to bang the desk like JB.

235
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: Bickerstaff did out there. What we saw tonight was disgusting.

236
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 1: He went off about the hostile act, which they measured

237
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: to because lou Dort stepped on his teammate's foot and

238
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: he went down, and they were worried that somehow, I

239
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: guess Isaiah Stewart was around and maybe it was Isaiah Stewart,

240
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: I don't know what, like he.

241
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 3: Was nearby he had to do something.

242
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, weird, they know, I'd mean that there was. It

243
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: was ratcheted up a little bit in terms of the refereeing,

244
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 1: just to see they were in the piss's worry house.

245
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: I wouldn't I wouldn't know what to call it. Here

246
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 1: was warrihouse. I know it's a weird, weird statement, but

247
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: they were. They were definitely very aware that the Detroit Pistons,

248
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: who are a very physical team a lot.

249
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 3: Yeah they both are, Yeah, which is great, makes for

250
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 3: a great basketball.

251
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 5: Yeah.

252
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 2: This was very weird though, this like this was poorly

253
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,199
Speaker 2: officiated game, Like this is this team I thought was

254
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 2: bad and then this is what kicked off. Then Kate

255
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 2: Cunningham getting tossed out.

256
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: Of the gate. Yeah, but Kate was extremely upset a

257
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: couple of times going at the referee.

258
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 2: I will I agree with that bad on the Pistons

259
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 2: either his teammates, coaching staff. They have to remove them

260
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 2: from that because he got his one tech for basically

261
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 2: telling the refs, you don't even know what you're doing

262
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 2: right now. You don't even know whether we're supposed to

263
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 2: be lining up. Why are you even looking at this

264
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 2: as a hostile review? So he was pissed off with them,

265
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,679
Speaker 2: and then yeah, somebody should have pulled them away. Now

266
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 2: I think they're like, it's Kate. He's not a hot head,

267
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 2: he's not that crazy, Like he doesn't do this right,

268
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 2: so he'll probably chill out, he'll be fine. But the

269
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 2: refs continued to keep screwing up and having no clue

270
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 2: what they were doing, to the point where it like

271
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 2: pissed off Kate, and he kept talking and saying, do

272
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 2: your fin job, and then he got the second one

273
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 2: and then he got tossed, which I mean like, sorry,

274
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 2: he was right, Caid was right. I know you don't

275
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 2: want to hear it, like, hey, you don't know how

276
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 2: to do your job, But they didn't know what they were.

277
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 3: Doing there, so the frustration building and then they toss them.

278
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: Kaid was extremely upset about not having guys beside the

279
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: free throw lane.

280
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 3: That's exactly right, because confused.

281
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 1: What happens out here, And he was going at one

282
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: particular RAF and he was swearing. He was mad. And

283
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:42,199
Speaker 1: Jamie Vickerstaff also didn't get a review for an elbow

284
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: that went up close to someone's face and he wanted

285
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: a hostile act review for that. So he was just very,

286
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: very mad, and he was very sweaty. I think we

287
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 1: need a Yeah he was.

288
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 2: He was, but he talks about like I get into

289
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 2: games as if I'm like a player around.

290
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was so sweaty.

291
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 1: We need a sweaty Coach of the Year award because

292
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: I thought Chauncey Billips would own this award. But then

293
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: you see what Jimmy Bickerstaff brought and I thought it

294
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: be him. How many tows does that guy go through

295
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 1: the game?

296
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 3: It is dripping.

297
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: It's between those two. Then Eric Spolstrak gets mad, but

298
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 1: not as mad. I don't know if there's any other

299
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: nominations out there. Let us know if there's any other nominees,

300
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 1: but for pure sweat person, I see a guy gushing

301
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: like we always talk about, you know, the sweatiest guys

302
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 1: an NBA history year, Pat Patrick Ewings. Yeah, coaches, where

303
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 1: are they? It's Billups because he gets mad to uh

304
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: and Jimmy Bickerstaff. You just see it on a guy's face.

305
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 1: I couldn't think of another one. Eric Spolstra again a

306
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: little bit, but I don't know.

307
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he didn't seem that sweaty to me. Yeah, maybe

308
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 3: it's because he's slick.

309
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 5: The sickness is like Tom Thibodo sweaty or is it

310
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 5: just a little bit of hair stays wet.

311
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 2: I think it's more like the guys like bicker Staff,

312
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 2: who's really every session he's barking out. He's like trying

313
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 2: to like he's almost like a college coach. Yeah, those

314
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 2: animated college coaches that are like going up and down

315
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 2: the sideline.

316
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 3: Oh way.

317
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 2: I had no problem with his like complaints after banging

318
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 2: the table. He's like sticking up for his guys and

319
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 2: like they are building or have built this identity too,

320
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 2: Like we're not pushovers anymore. We're gonna play with an edge,

321
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 2: you know. I don't think it's like bad boys ere Pistons.

322
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 2: But in today's NBA, where everybody's love you dovey, they're

323
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 2: you know, they're going to bat for each other, so

324
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 2: I didn't I didn't mind that, and I do think

325
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 2: the officials were like, they looked like deer in headlights,

326
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 2: a couple of those guys, so they were like, what's

327
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 2: going on? They were confused with the checking and lighting

328
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 2: up and all that, and like, okay, Kate should have stopped.

329
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 2: And again I think that's on another guy to like

330
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 2: pull him away, get him out of there, let him

331
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 2: cool down.

332
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 3: But you don't want to see a star player get

333
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 3: tossed for that.

334
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: No, and Jim Bickerstaff was clear to say we're doing

335
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: something that is good for the league in playing physical,

336
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: and I understand the referees may want to keep it

337
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: toned down. And I think he named Mark. I think

338
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: he said one official's name. I think I believe it

339
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: was Mark, and he said I said that officials first

340
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: name once and that I guess Scott under his skin.

341
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: But yeah, it is the it is the Pistons, and

342
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: I suppose the referees just weren't.

343
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 2: Happy these two teams play again. I think I think

344
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 2: we have the Thunder Pistons once more on the docket.

345
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure because the Thunder are now twenty four

346
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 2: and one.

347
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 3: Against the Eastern Conference.

348
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 2: They have five games remaining Sixers, Hornets, Pacers, Bulls, and

349
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 2: Pistons yea, and you know, very easily could win all

350
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 2: five of those, and I think that would set like

351
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 2: the all time win percentage against an opposing conference since

352
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 2: they did realignment back in whatever.

353
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 3: Like yeah, the crazy stats.

354
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: And the first game or excuse me, the next game

355
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 1: would definitely be in Okay see obviously because you only

356
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: played once in the other conferences, barn, But those fans

357
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: had a great game. Yeah, great Saturday night game that

358
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: was super fun. And I know we're talking about all

359
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 1: the tensions, but the play was awesome and Pissons to

360
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 1: be able to fight in this game to keep it

361
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: close until the end, although Jayalen Duran dunked and they

362
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: had to repair the rim for several minutes, which was

363
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 1: oh painful to watch. To see a level, I always.

364
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 2: Feel bad for those guys under the most pressure exactly.

365
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, tough, tough bringing out that level out there. Get

366
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: not a ladder.

367
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 2: I would just always be like, yeah, it's fine, all right,

368
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 2: so that's a winner, just that thunder Pistons showdown. Maybe

369
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 2: besides the officiating, I'd like to give a winner of

370
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 2: the weekend to the Rockets, who I thought had themselves

371
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 2: a nice little Friday and Saturday, maybe a nice little

372
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 2: Sunday too, I don't know. Hit the home depot, get

373
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 2: some flooring, maybe hit bed, bath and beyond.

374
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 3: Who knows.

375
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 2: But on Friday night, Tari Easton scored a career high

376
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 2: thirty points to lead Houston to an easy one thirty

377
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 2: three ninety six win over the depleted Dallas Mavericks. So

378
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: nothing to get all that excited about out you're playing,

379
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 2: you know, the Mavericks who are down to like basically

380
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 2: US three playing for them. But Houston, I just liked that.

381
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 2: It was never in doubt. They led by double digits

382
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 2: most of the night. Most of their startup didn't have

383
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 2: to play the fourth quarter. It was just an ass kicking.

384
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 2: They dominated the glass twenty nine second chance points to

385
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 2: two for Dallas in that game.

386
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 3: Don't see that all that often, So that was good.

387
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,120
Speaker 2: And then on Saturday they followed up in a back

388
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 2: to back Jalen Green scored twenty eight points. He is

389
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,199
Speaker 2: on his annual March Madness heater right now, you know,

390
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 2: Mickey Mouse March, whatever you want to call it. This

391
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 2: guy's cooking, and the Rockets extended their win streak to

392
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 2: six straight with the one to seventeen to one to

393
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 2: fourteen win over the Bowl, so a lot closer. I

394
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 2: thought the big takeaway from this one was especially the

395
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 2: first half play of Fred van Vliet, because this guy

396
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 2: recently came back. He had twenty one first half points

397
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 2: for Houston, so that was really good. And here are

398
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 2: you have Houston now taking advantage of their schedule. They've

399
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 2: had a lot of home games where they're really winning

400
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 2: a lot of them, and they've moved to forty three

401
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 2: and twenty five on the season, actually in the second

402
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 2: spot in the West, holding tiebreakers over the Grizzlies and

403
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 2: Nuggets right now, so they're all tied exact same record,

404
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 2: but Houston has the number two seeds, So impressive stuff.

405
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,400
Speaker 2: A lot of us thought maybe they would drop, maybe

406
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 2: they'd fall, and they're hanging in there and having just

407
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 2: honestly an awesome season. They're going to be flirting with

408
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,239
Speaker 2: a flirting with a fifty win season here when it's

409
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 2: all said and done.

410
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 5: You get to fifty wins by beating bad teams, and

411
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 5: that's what they're doing to beat the Pelicans twice, the

412
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,159
Speaker 5: Magic Suns, and then the Mavericks and Bulls. Like you're saying,

413
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 5: but they've got tiebreaker advantages over the Nuggets. I think

414
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 5: right now they've maybe only played one time and they

415
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,400
Speaker 5: already locked it in against the Grizzlies, so looking good

416
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 5: from hanging on to the second seed perspective, I would

417
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 5: just say, I don't really know what to make of

418
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 5: this Rockets team right now, because, like you're saying, Fred

419
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 5: VanVleet just came back, awesome, but Amn Thompson just went

420
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,159
Speaker 5: out as well. Jabari Smith just came back, But they

421
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 5: haven't been able to actually figure out what their starting

422
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 5: lineup is going to be going forward. So nice to

423
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 5: see them stacking up wins when they need to be

424
00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 5: getting these wins because they're all going to matter from

425
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 5: a counting standpoint. Down the butt, we got the seventy

426
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 5: six ers, next.

427
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 3: The Magic, the Heat.

428
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 5: They could obviously keep this role, and I guess their

429
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 5: next big game is on the twenty third.

430
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 3: Against the Nuggets.

431
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 5: Like that's a big measuring stitch and I'm gonna be

432
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 5: big for tie breakers as well. I did see Jeff

433
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 5: Green had another big dunk in this one. Against the Bulls.

434
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 5: He completely froze Patrick Williams with the pump fake from

435
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 5: the corner. Pump faked and held the ball up there

436
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 5: for a split second. Williams goes flying by statue of

437
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 5: Liberty dunk for Jeff Green once again, like the most

438
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 5: ridiculous looking pumping I've ever seen.

439
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 3: It looked like a joke, but it worked.

440
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 2: I would add that Elprin Shenggun had a pretty good

441
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 2: weekend two. He played well, and this surprised me. And

442
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 2: I know they're a great defensive team. The rocketar Elprin

443
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 2: Shenggun has the fifth lowest defensive rating in the NBA

444
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 2: right now. It's like OKC guys Hartenstein, j Dubb SGA

445
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 2: and then Jared Allen and then it's Shen Gun and

446
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 2: I think Anthony Davis won maybe still in the mix,

447
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 2: but he's obviously missed a ton of games at this point.

448
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 2: That's really impressive because for a guy as young as

449
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 2: he is, that a lot of people have said, can

450
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 2: you really have a good team, a good defensive team

451
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 2: with him as your big I mean, he's proving that

452
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 2: you can. You got to have other pieces around him,

453
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 2: but you know, he takes care of the glass and

454
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 2: all that. And he's of course a great offensive player,

455
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 2: is a much better offensive player than a defensive player.

456
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 2: But he's not really a liability, so I just want

457
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 2: to get him a little love for that.

458
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 1: Definitely his best season on the defensive edge. Em Udoka

459
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,959
Speaker 1: has him going hard and it's so fitting. I am

460
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: going to talk about a play with Alpern Shangun and

461
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 1: that guy you just mentioned, Anthony Davis a little bit later,

462
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: very interested in that. You mentioned Jeff Green's dunk at

463
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: the Statue of Liberty. There's got to be a meme

464
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: out there, video produced a bald Statue of Liberty, you know,

465
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: like because it's it's because it's like the super bald

466
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 1: guy dunks it with the Statue of Liberty. Like somebody's

467
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: made that video. I can't wait to see it because

468
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: he's gotten balder here.

469
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:53,479
Speaker 6: That doesn't usually go the other way, No, it doesn't,

470
00:20:53,680 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 6: but here is Dayne Rooney.

471
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 3: That's true, it's true.

472
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 1: Maybe Lebron Duran will be interesting anyway. He's at a

473
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 1: billion good dunks, but nothing with a bald. Nothing was

474
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: a really really bald look Jeff Green, like the you

475
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: know the montage that's why.

476
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 2: The mixtape is going to be amazing because you're gonna

477
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 2: see him age as you put together the Jeff Green

478
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,120
Speaker 2: Super Mixtape, at least his hair.

479
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, but there's not too many bald with him. I'm saying, okay,

480
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: like the last couple of years, correcting like he's almost

481
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: done or something.

482
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, just wait until he goes completely gray, looking

483
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 5: like Katino Mobley out there.

484
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 2: All right, So Rockets get a winner of the weekend.

485
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 2: Let's do another round back to UTK.

486
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 3: I got the Memphis Grizzlies.

487
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 5: They did lose to Cleveland on Friday, that's when the

488
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 5: clubs still had their streak going. But in back end

489
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 5: they got Jared Jackson Junior back after five games out.

490
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 5: He went for thirteen three thirteen points, three rebounds, forced deals,

491
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 5: in a couple of blocks. But I'm giving them a

492
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 5: winner for their victory. On Saturday. They completely destroyed the

493
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 5: Miami Heat on the second night of a back to

494
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,160
Speaker 5: back No Jammer ramp for the Grizzlies, and they led

495
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,199
Speaker 5: the entire game. Jared Jackson Junior was awesome in this one,

496
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 5: thirty one points, six rebounds, and two blocks. Like I said,

497
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 5: he only missed five games Grizzlies went four and one,

498
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 5: and Jeron Jackson Junior I think is still live for

499
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 5: awards right now.

500
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 3: He's played sixty one games this season.

501
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 5: I thought he was gonna be out for much longer

502
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,360
Speaker 5: with this injury, so he's gonna be eligible for awards.

503
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 5: He was the leader for Defensive Player of the Year

504
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 5: when he went out with the injury. I guess Mobley

505
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 5: was just resting on Sunday. It's not like a major

506
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 5: injury for him, so I think that's still a race

507
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 5: to be decided here in the last fifteen games of

508
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 5: the season. He's still got an outside shot at all NBA.

509
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 5: I would say as well. I think he was pretty

510
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 5: close to being like a third team All NBA guy.

511
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 5: And we'll see if the Grizzlies are able to keep

512
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 5: things going. Like I said, they led the entire night

513
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 5: against the Miami Heat, outscored him seventy two to fifty.

514
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 3: In the points in the.

515
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 5: Paint, Zach Edy had twelve, Brandon Clark had twelve, and

516
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 5: Desmond Bain had ten rebounds. That was interesting to me,

517
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 5: so I looked it up. He's had ten rebounds nine

518
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 5: or more times nine times in his career.

519
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 3: Three times in March.

520
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 5: I guess this guy's will Mickey Mouse March rebounder ran

521
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 5: out those short arms getting in there. He at his

522
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 5: career high sixteen like a week ago or something like that.

523
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,360
Speaker 5: But yeah, I guess Desmond Bane dB does board. Also postgame,

524
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 5: they retired Tony Allen's jersey. Yeah, yeah, that guy invented

525
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 5: grittin grind.

526
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: Literally, no way they're going to lose, No way they're

527
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: going to lose a game, right. They were bopping for

528
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: Tony Allen. Lupe Fiasco performed at halftime. A good halftime show.

529
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: Damn yeah, just.

530
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 3: Kind of connection I suppose.

531
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not sure, but they loved it out there.

532
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 3: Was doing halftime shows.

533
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 4: Ey, it was good.

534
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: Okay, superstar a lots lots. He wasn't going full song

535
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: for each of them. You know, he played the heck

536
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 1: give you a Taste played this, but yeah, the crowd

537
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: was rocking. I like the jacket that Zach Randolph handed

538
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 1: him pre game, pretty stuff, but yeah, the crowd was

539
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:06,199
Speaker 1: ready for Tony Allen. Unfortunately, this Grizzlies defense is just

540
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: it hasn't been the same watching them. They're not into

541
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: it every single possession like they have been the nineteenth

542
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 1: best defense since January first, any good enough, they're tenth

543
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 1: best defense overall. But they've just dropped off the last

544
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: couple months. And it's not just Jaron Jackson Junior being out.

545
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 1: I mean, he was just out for five games and

546
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 1: now he's back and looks great. They just don't look

547
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: the same to me. So they're not a defense team.

548
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 5: No. Yeah, And you think of the Grizzlies as like

549
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 5: a grit and grind team, but they are definitely an

550
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 5: offense first team. And I think like a larger part

551
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 5: of that is Jared Jackson Junior, Like the guy's become

552
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 5: an awesome offensive player. It's weird to see him and

553
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 5: Bam out of Bio. They're like very similar guys, switchy defensively,

554
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,120
Speaker 5: good rim protection, not great rebounders. But Jaron Jackson Junior

555
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 5: has ten times the offensive game that Bam out of

556
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 5: Bayo does at this.

557
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,360
Speaker 2: Point, it's crazy to think you wouldn't have Probably if

558
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 2: you were picking between the two a couple of years ago,

559
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 2: I don't think you would go that direction. Back to

560
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 2: Tony Allen, that means three of the four GrITT and

561
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 2: grind Grizzlies boys have had their jerseys retired, right, yeah,

562
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,199
Speaker 2: Tony Allen, marcusol Zach Randoff, and then we're waiting on

563
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 2: Mike Conley still playing.

564
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 1: They'll get it, He'll get it done.

565
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 2: So his number eventually will go up there, all right,

566
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 2: Chris sticking in that awesome race there again. Yeah, that

567
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 2: two three four in the Western Conference with the Rockets,

568
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 2: as we showed some love to already.

569
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 1: It's a race man.

570
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, back to you though, tasks, who's your other

571
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 2: winner of the weekend?

572
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: Christophs Porzingis and the Boston Celtics overall. But christophs Porzingis

573
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: coming back because he had that viral illness that he

574
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 1: didn't know what he had exactly. He said it was

575
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: bronchitis or something like that. That really just set him

576
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,159
Speaker 1: back because he was laid out and then he was

577
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: just so fatigued every workout he had, every time he

578
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,160
Speaker 1: tried to come back. He tried to come back against

579
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 1: the Lost Angeles Lakers where he was in warm ups

580
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,959
Speaker 1: and was ready for that big game, but then he

581
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 1: was just too fatigued. He said, I can't do it.

582
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: So he set out even more games. Something going on

583
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,119
Speaker 1: in that body. But he's back against the Nats. He

584
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,879
Speaker 1: had twenty four points in thirty one minutes. They bumped

585
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,199
Speaker 1: up that minute's restriction to get him out there as

586
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 1: much as possible. I mean, he just looked great. First

587
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 1: play a pick and roll to him, he goes eurostep.

588
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: It's a role. And the fact is he played inside

589
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: a ton this whole thing that people are all talking

590
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: about with the Boston Celtics are just a three point

591
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 1: shooting team. They can do the other thing. He did

592
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 1: so many things, pick and roll, catch and dunk, catch

593
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 1: and shoot over small defender of course, a pull up jumper,

594
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: pretend that dribble, handoff and drive in. He had a

595
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: huge dunk on day Ron sharp eight of nine on twos,

596
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: seven of eight in the paint. And the Celtics only

597
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: shot thirty eight threes, which is ten below their average

598
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: number of threes below their average but even last year,

599
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: so the Nets shot way more. And the thing with

600
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: Chris as porzingis out there, even with Al Horford out

601
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: rest you can rest an old guy. I think that's allowed.

602
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: And they just went to the double bigs, which is

603
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: going to be ideal playing against even Mobiley and Jared

604
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 1: Allen if he needed in that sort of series. So

605
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 1: it's with Luke Cornette in this instance eight minutes and

606
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 1: then another seven with numash K And also as far

607
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: as the Celtics go. I didn't realize this is I

608
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 1: think too deep in the record category for me. But

609
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 1: Peyton Pritchard set the NBA single season record for three

610
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 1: portners coming off a bench. That's something you'll never remember.

611
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: I think. I think that's that's a little too much.

612
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 1: But anyway, two hundred nineteen, which is like starter threes,

613
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:22,919
Speaker 1: that's crazy.

614
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,120
Speaker 2: It's a lot of threes to nineteen off the bench. Yeah,

615
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 2: still what fifteen plus games to go?

616
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, because he's never never had an instance where he

617
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:31,719
Speaker 1: was the starter.

618
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 2: You know, that wasn't you guys were debating, you know,

619
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,160
Speaker 2: is the where are we at with the defensive player

620
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 2: of the year? I g has Pritchard run away with

621
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 2: six man of the year is easily have a chance

622
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 2: still anyone else I'm.

623
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 3: Forgetting Easy's got two hundred and sixty four threes this season.

624
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 1: I guess a lot of them starting.

625
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 3: He started fourteen games. Okay, Okay, wow, how many it's

626
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 3: got to be close.

627
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: It's got to be very Yeah, And who had the

628
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:53,919
Speaker 2: uh who had the previous record?

629
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: Was it?

630
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 3: The Golden Arm himself is something like that, isn't it?

631
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: Wayne Wayne?

632
00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 2: Wayne Wayne had a ton off the bench for the

633
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 2: he way back in the day. I think so you'd

634
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 2: have to fetch it on that. But all right, good

635
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,679
Speaker 2: stuff Porzingis. I keep thinking something you said last week.

636
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,640
Speaker 2: I believe tk like last year the Celtics won championship

637
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 2: basically without Porzingis, and this year for them to repeat,

638
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 2: they're gonna need Porzingis. And I think that's true. I

639
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 2: don't think that's a far fetched that they need him

640
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,479
Speaker 2: at this elite level. Gives you that inside outside game.

641
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 2: He's obviously a great defensive player too. He's huge, and

642
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 2: he's be a big difference maker, no doubt for them

643
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,439
Speaker 2: and their chances to get by Cleveland and get back

644
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 2: to the finals and maybe win again.

645
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 5: He's a switch killer, and that's the main way the

646
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 5: Celtics get twos is by going to Porzingis in the

647
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 5: post when they switch these actions out on the perimeter,

648
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 5: because you can't give up a three. Obviously, he's a

649
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 5: good shooter as well, but he's become a great post

650
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 5: player and just money basically from fifteen feet in, So, yeah,

651
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 5: Porzingis is able to be healthy. Yeah what he says like,

652
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 5: I didn't know if it was bronchitis or pneumonia, so

653
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 5: just sounds like I'm nasty.

654
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 4: Cold on the most part. But yeah, he was laid

655
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 4: up and.

656
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 5: Got enough time to get his legs underneath him into

657
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 5: the playoffs, which means he'll be fresh for the playoffs

658
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 5: for the most part.

659
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good. And that is why the Cavs got

660
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hunter because they have obviously Alan and Mobley, but

661
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: they play the switch and they want to be able

662
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 1: to switch and guard Chriss Borzingis and it just wasn't

663
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 1: happening with Max Strews or Isaac Corra or Dean Wade.

664
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 1: So that's what they went with. Here's your stat for

665
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 1: Malik Beasley. It's two to oh one off the bench

666
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 1: in sixty three as a starter, so he's cooking in

667
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 1: those games. Fourteen games, so that's yeah, four per game

668
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: essentially as a starter.

669
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, keep your eye on that. Few other NBA

670
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 2: weekend winners. Draymond Green, he put the Knicks to sleep.

671
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 2: Did you see him do the step I did night

672
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 2: night on.

673
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 3: The dagger layup.

674
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 2: It's a little different than the dagger three that were

675
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 2: used to see it from Curry when he puts the

676
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 2: team to sleep, but he did drop it. And the

677
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 2: look the Warriors stay winning. I just want to bring

678
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 2: that up. They're fourteen and three since the trade deadline,

679
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 2: number five offense, number two defense.

680
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 3: This has worked perfectly in the mix.

681
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 2: You sort of have to start considering them as a

682
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 2: potential team to at least go very far in the

683
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 2: West if not represented.

684
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 3: So they stay winning. So did the Wolves.

685
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 5: I thought, hold on, I thought it was a sweet

686
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 5: win for the Warriors because we just saw him beat

687
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 5: the Kings and they scored like one hundred and forty points. Yes,

688
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 5: they're like, we won with offense. And then they beat

689
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 5: the Knicks by playing.

690
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 2: Awesome ninety seven ninety four. Yeah, yeah, completely different styte

691
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 2: of style. Yeah. The Wolves also stayed hot. Now they

692
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 2: crushed the Jazz by twenty six points on Sunday for their.

693
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 3: Eighth straight victory.

694
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 2: Edwards amazing forty one points for this guy, and Minnesota

695
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 2: pulls themselves closer to the Warriors for the number six seed.

696
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 2: So though, now suddenly Minnesota is back in the mix

697
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 2: here trying to just get into the playoffs. Both these

698
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 2: teams right now. I mean again, we're talking to the

699
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 2: top of the West, as loaded as it is with

700
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 2: especially ok see, but now like now, the teams in

701
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 2: the sixth and seventh spot are two of the best

702
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 2: teams at least over the last two weeks or so,

703
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 2: or maybe even since the deadline.

704
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 3: That just makes for even more.

705
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 2: Explosive matchups and battles wherever we get anything to add

706
00:30:59,200 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 2: on Minnesota.

707
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 1: In Minnesota, yeah, well they should get to a double

708
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: digit win streak. They should be able to do that

709
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 1: with their schedule and that they're all home games, similar

710
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: to the Warriors, but the Wolf's schedule is easier. Now

711
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: the Warriors have Nuggets foxed Raptors, Yeah they should be

712
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: able to handle that as well, but the Timberwolves is

713
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 1: even easier. So yeah, they're not going to stop losing.

714
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 5: The only weird thing that happened in the Western Conference

715
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 5: is the Nuggets losing to the Wizards, Yes for the

716
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 5: second time this season. If they meet in the finals,

717
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 5: I'm going Wizards, look out.

718
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, Wizards are technically not eliminated yet from the play.

719
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 4: That's right, That's right.

720
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 2: That was my final winner Jordan Poole that huge shot Nuggets.

721
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 2: I think they called it a thirty five footer in

722
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 2: the end, and yeah, they somehow beat them twice this season.

723
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 2: The Wizards beat the Nuggets crazy. He was awesome in

724
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter. Pool every shot was insane. He had

725
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 2: nineteen points. Alex Shar had a great game, his best

726
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 2: game of his young career at thirty four points against

727
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 2: your kitch of all people.

728
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 3: So very weird. They're two to zero.

729
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 2: Against Denver and those are like those could be losses

730
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 2: that obviously matter in terms of like who the hell

731
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 2: they're playing in a first round matchup.

732
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 1: Jordan Poole said, just get me the ball. That's what

733
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 1: he called I need. He was right, the sime ball. Yeah,

734
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: n that was deep.

735
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 2: All right, let's go from winners to losers, Trey, where

736
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 2: you're starting well.

737
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 5: Outside of my Jazz, the oldest team in the NBA

738
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 5: is the Miami Heat. Seven straight losses after going oh

739
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 5: and to this weekend. They've scored ninety one points in

740
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 5: a loss to the Celtics on Friday, followed that up

741
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 5: by scoring ninety one points and a loss to the

742
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 5: Grizzlies on Sunday. Weren't even competitive against the Grizzlies. Like

743
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 5: we mentioned earlier, So with regards to the Boston game,

744
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 5: only fourteen points in the fourth quarter for Miami. I

745
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 5: think it was the fourth time this season they'd scored

746
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 5: fifteen or fewer in the fourth quarter. That's hard to do.

747
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 5: I think there were three separate three minute stretches in

748
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 5: this one that Miami did not score. They have to

749
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 5: work so hard to score the first three quarters, and it

750
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 5: just feels like they completely run out of steam in

751
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 5: the fourth quarter. Since the All Star break, they're twenty

752
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 5: fifth in offensive rating, thirtieth and fourth quarter offensive rating

753
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 5: and Eric Spolstra, he's just out there sweating and searching.

754
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 5: Davion Mitchell started, then they started on Friday. They started

755
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 5: Jim Hawkes for Mitchell, and then they're like, whatever, let's

756
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 5: play our defense lineup and started khalil Ware for him

757
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 5: Hawkas and then they gave up seventy two points in

758
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,719
Speaker 5: the paint despite playing Bam and khalil Ware. They just

759
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 5: aren't a fun team to watch right now. Offensively, they're brutal.

760
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 5: Like Heroes having a great season. He's been awesome this year.

761
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 5: But if Tyler hero is the number One guy, You're

762
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 5: a bottom ten offense, is what it's turning out to be.

763
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 5: Down to ninth in the Eastern Conference are Miami. They're

764
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 5: only a game up on the Bulls, which is good

765
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 5: for their pick one through fourteen protected they would get

766
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 5: to keep it right now, but bad for their season

767
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:53,239
Speaker 5: because they're trying to win and it ain't happening and

768
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 5: nobody has an answer. Like every postgame, it's basically like,

769
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 5: I don't know what we're trying to do, well, how

770
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 5: do we win?

771
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 3: We'll figure it out, and they haven't figured it out.

772
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 3: They are such a tough watch.

773
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 2: They play so slow as it is, they obviously struggle offensively.

774
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's just because we've had these

775
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 2: like tournament games, you know, over the weekend and last

776
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 2: week and now we're getting into March madness. They feel

777
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 2: like watching a college basketball peak by times where you're

778
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,919
Speaker 2: just like, oh my god, this is a brutal type

779
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 2: of basketball because it's so difficult and there's just no

780
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 2: rhythm to them. So some similarities to that maybe Wisconsin

781
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 2: Michigan game that I watched a little bit of and

782
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 2: then you know, had this heat game on before that

783
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:34,800
Speaker 2: on the weekend.

784
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 3: Not good for Miami. Hold they're gonna be on the plane.

785
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 2: I mean, they're still gonna be there, but I don't

786
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 2: think it's gonna be for long now.

787
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 1: Either. As Khalil wears chance at Rookie of the Year,

788
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 1: I thought he after the that good run that he

789
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: had and he Danny jumped up to the Rookie of

790
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: the Year odds as the number one Rookie of the

791
00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 1: year odd Nope, ain't gonna work for him either, because

792
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: there are they're flashes for him. But yeah, there's just

793
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 1: no guys to go with. If you're looking for an offense,

794
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 1: it's not Terry rose Ere. Unfortunately, he was terrible, terrible.

795
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 5: They're scary Terry for a different reason.

796
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's is there some sort of connection with the

797
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:21,800
Speaker 1: investigation going on there, because I mean there's there's something

798
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 1: troubling with Terry rose Heer. He just doesn't look like

799
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:28,720
Speaker 1: himself at all. He looks terrible. And yeah, the himay

800
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: Hawk has experiment. I wish they had gone to it

801
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: earlier this season and just started the dude. But anyways,

802
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,359
Speaker 1: that's from the outside looking in. Yeah, it looks very bad.

803
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,959
Speaker 1: Who is going to win brook of the year, nobody.

804
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 3: Probably Castle. Yeah, I think it's going to be Castle.

805
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think narrative is Castle.

806
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's played, he's play yeah, yeah, yeah. He's averaging

807
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,879
Speaker 2: fourteen three, three and a half. You want to call

808
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 2: it that. Obviously, Jalen Wells has had a really good

809
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,479
Speaker 2: season for the Grizzlies too. The numbers are a little

810
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 2: bit less than Castles. Alex was turning it on here

811
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 2: as of late.

812
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 3: Same as a little bit.

813
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 2: So we'll see. We'll see there, all right, Tassa. Who

814
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 2: else do you have for a loser?

815
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 1: Oh? Well, the Dallas Mavericks. Yeah, it's the fans are

816
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 1: already feeling pain. But then it came became full circle

817
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 1: playing against the Rockets on Friday, because they played the

818
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 1: Rockets their first game after getting Anthony Davis, and in

819
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: that first quarter Anthony Davis pushed Alpern Shangun out of

820
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 1: the way and just dumped it and he screamed, I'm here.

821
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 1: Then two quarters later he was gone. Yeah, yeah, he

822
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,879
Speaker 1: was done and he hasn't played since. Against the Rockets.

823
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 1: There's a lot of lack of size that was very apparent.

824
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 1: They got killed on the board's almost doubled sixty seven

825
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 1: to thirty four. They have no Davis, no Gafford, no

826
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 1: Derek Lively, so that's a reason why why. Yeah, but

827
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,760
Speaker 1: they only had nine players healthy and then Dante Exon

828
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:02,839
Speaker 1: goes out, so they finish with eight XM broke his hand,

829
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 1: probably gone for the entire season, so the guard spot

830
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: has become extremely weak. To go along with Kyrie Irving

831
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,240
Speaker 1: being out, they only had one starter from that February

832
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: eighth game against the Houston Rockets started this one, Klay Thompson.

833
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 1: Nobody's playing, but they still might be in the player.

834
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 3: Suck.

835
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:28,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and their schedule is extremely tough, so it's difficult

836
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: to make up that gap for the Suns.

837
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 3: Let's not sleep on the Kings being absolute garbage either.

838
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Like the MAVs could stay in the plane,

839
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,480
Speaker 2: the Sons could get in, but it could be the

840
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,879
Speaker 2: King's falling up because they can't take control of their

841
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:40,439
Speaker 2: spot either.

842
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the King or excuse me, the MAVs might

843
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,720
Speaker 1: get some guys back. It might happen, but anyway.

844
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's brutal when you see like it's getting shared.

845
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 2: It feels like every game now the Dallas Mavericks like

846
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:53,280
Speaker 2: injury report.

847
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, now you add like you said, it's like, holy crap.

848
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 3: That is wild.

849
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 2: On top of of course trading Luca at the deadline,

850
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 2: Fans still booing Nico Harrison respect to them, still sticking

851
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 2: with that.

852
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 3: I love a hot tip to them.

853
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 2: If I had a green Chief hat on right now,

854
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 2: I would absolutely tip that.

855
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 3: Stick with it. He's gotta get booed for the rest

856
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 3: of his life. I know, probably posthumously as well.

857
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 4: Bolls fans do it.

858
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:23,880
Speaker 3: Bull fans did it to a guy that helped to

859
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 3: win six titles.

860
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly exactly. The Maps get it like the Maps

861
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,919
Speaker 4: right now, it's like literally roll a die and that's

862
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 4: going to be their leading scorer for the night.

863
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:35,760
Speaker 3: It was PJ. Washington.

864
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:39,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, twenty nine, he's back. Yeah, one game with Braymon Williams.

865
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 5: Just if you play, you might be the leading scorer

866
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,240
Speaker 5: for the Dallas Mavericks. But I think Sons ultimate losers

867
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 5: because if they can't catch the Mavericks, that's honestly ridiculous.

868
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 5: The hardest thing about the schedule for the Phoenix Suns

869
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 5: is that there's fourteen games left and they don't want.

870
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 3: To play any of them.

871
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, they're done.

872
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 5: They're trying to lose. They're like, we cannot play even

873
00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 5: a single more play in game.

874
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 1: Uh you heard PJ. Washington after the game say, we're

875
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 1: sick and tired of the fans calling for Nico Harrison's job.

876
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 3: You want to you want that to stop just fireing?

877
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 2: Then if that is a really big deal, don't worry.

878
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah he called it. He said. He vocally

879
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: yelled back at a fan apparently and said, we're tired

880
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 1: of it.

881
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 2: Okay, No, especially with what Luca had some good moments

882
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 2: over the weekend too. I guess could have maybe considered

883
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 2: the Lakers. I guess they lost to the Nuggets in

884
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 2: that first game on the weekend. Jamal Murray hit the

885
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 2: Big three.

886
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:42,319
Speaker 3: But yeah he did. Austin Reeves, man, he's bowling right now.

887
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 1: Uh.

888
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 2: Well, it's funny we brought up the bulls there in

889
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 2: the championship titles and banners because, uh, my loser the weekend.

890
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 2: This might be a first. I gotta give it to

891
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:52,839
Speaker 2: the heavy metal band Disturbed.

892
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 3: We talked about.

893
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 2: This, I told you guys about this last week, but

894
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 2: we got some follow up because two weekends ago, the

895
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 2: heavy man band Disturbed, they took their tour to their

896
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,760
Speaker 2: hometown of Chicago. That's where they formed in the mid nineties,

897
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 2: and they brought major pyrotechnics to the United Center.

898
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,320
Speaker 3: Someone named Zach, a fail of the show, sent this

899
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:13,800
Speaker 3: into it US.

900
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 2: Some footage, no joke, like, they have some pyrotechnics, a

901
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 2: lot of fire and then they pan up there and

902
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 2: you can see the banners Championship banners, I don't know,

903
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 2: getting an effect somehow, probably from the heat more than anything,

904
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 2: because they have been damaged where I told you last week.

905
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 2: They took them down, but they were gonna get them

906
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 2: right back up, not anymore. The United Center had to

907
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 2: release a statement Friday afternoon that the staff discovered minor

908
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 2: damage to the banners and they're gonna be down for

909
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:45,920
Speaker 2: the rest of the season. They just took all six down, removed.

910
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:46,320
Speaker 3: From the rafters.

911
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:50,319
Speaker 2: Now get Yeah, my gut says it's more heat than

912
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:51,319
Speaker 2: like actually like.

913
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:53,360
Speaker 3: Flames on the banners.

914
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 2: Maybe they're like crankling at the bottom chart or something.

915
00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, but those are some That's a crazy

916
00:40:59,040 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 2: stage set up.

917
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 5: There, astir I know, like a huge arena. I mean,

918
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:06,919
Speaker 5: people are seeing disturbing you to put on a show

919
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 5: like that. I guess that is a homecoming show.

920
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 3: It is cool.

921
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, so anyway, we will not have those bands up

922
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 2: there for the rest of the year.

923
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, for people who are listening, that was a lot

924
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: of flames.

925
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:20,240
Speaker 3: There's a lot of flames.

926
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought that would be an outdoor stage when

927
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 1: I just saw the flames going on. I mean that

928
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 1: is has like five layers of the place, like towers

929
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: of flames.

930
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 2: And I was just gonna say, like when you go

931
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:32,959
Speaker 2: to a Hawks game, go to any NBA game, because

932
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 2: a lot of them do it, you know, like during

933
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 2: player introductions at some point they're like, yeah, like drop

934
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 2: the flames off, usually the top of the shot clock

935
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 2: or maybe the big scoreboard.

936
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 3: And even if like your.

937
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 2: Thirty rows backs, well you get a little blast, you

938
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 2: get a little it's very warm. So I'm like imagine that,

939
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 2: no wonder these things are all probably charred or warped

940
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 2: or something like that.

941
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 7: Yeah, and they're way up there. They're so far out there.

942
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:03,720
Speaker 7: We bet up to those those banners up there. Hopefully

943
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:06,359
Speaker 7: they can just find the same people who made them,

944
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 7: because if it's like one that's messed up and you

945
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:10,320
Speaker 7: fix it, it's gonna look different.

946
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 2: That's what I was thinking, And I was like, I

947
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 2: was like, no way, they had to take down all six.

948
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 2: But I'm like, you sort of have to if one

949
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 2: or two gets damaged. It's almost weirder if you just

950
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 2: took down you know, the ninety two title banner.

951
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I leave the rest.

952
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 2: Something about that weird, Like there's such like, you know,

953
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 2: the six or together, at least the three and the three.

954
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 3: It's got thirty years of patina up there. You know,

955
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 3: you gotta clean them all.

956
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 5: It's like I damaged the door in my kitchen yesterday

957
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 5: updating sensors. So I was like, Okay, I gotta paint

958
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 5: this part of the door. Yeah, but then it's like

959
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 5: I'm gonna paint one part of the door. Suddenly I'm

960
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:44,239
Speaker 5: painting an entire hole.

961
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,759
Speaker 3: Oh no, you had to put a new sensor. Yeah, yeah,

962
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:52,280
Speaker 3: I had Jack and Carrol's.

963
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 5: We updated it to Trey and Laura.

964
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 4: That was a whole thing, and I knew it.

965
00:42:58,239 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 3: I knew it.

966
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 5: I was like, hopefully this doesn't damage anything. When I

967
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 5: pull off the first censor, I just heeled the way.

968
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,399
Speaker 5: But now my door looks great, just like these banners are.

969
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,239
Speaker 5: You know'd be awesome as getting a new banner to

970
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 5: hang next to them. There are six that have been

971
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 5: up there for thirty years.

972
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:15,959
Speaker 3: Nothing else.

973
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 4: No, no, let's get a new one.

974
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, hey you, I saw.

975
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 5: Chat GPT says the Bulls are going to win their

976
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 5: next title in twenty one.

977
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:28,359
Speaker 3: Oh one, twenty one oh one, twenty one oh one.

978
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:30,360
Speaker 3: I did see that going around.

979
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 5: They did, Ah, here's gonna win the next seventy five

980
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 5: championship as the Raptors have one coming.

981
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 3: In like the next twenty years.

982
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 4: This much more, much sooner than the Bulls do.

983
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,879
Speaker 5: I was that was sad that even the computers, they're

984
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,400
Speaker 5: not going to win one until you are one hundred

985
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 5: and eighteen years old. The Guangdong Tigers won one before

986
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 5: the balls.

987
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 1: Don't believe everything. You're here because I've heard every time

988
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,720
Speaker 1: somebody does a simply save ad it's so easy to install.

989
00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 1: I don't buy it anymore.

990
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 3: Just have to paint your doors.

991
00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 2: You You referenced the song last week when I brought

992
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,839
Speaker 2: this story up down with the sickness Disturbed song.

993
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 3: Do you know any other Disturbed song?

994
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 5: I think they did. I think they did a biscuit

995
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 5: coup or no, no, no.

996
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:19,280
Speaker 1: The banners.

997
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 5: I think they did a Pink Floyd cover. Wish Your

998
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 5: Hero was that? Or behind Blue Eyes? That might have

999
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:27,280
Speaker 5: been like biscuit Sound of Silence?

1000
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:27,759
Speaker 3: Is that a song?

1001
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:28,800
Speaker 4: The Sound of Silence?

1002
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:30,440
Speaker 2: That's what I was looking so what I thought you

1003
00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 2: might get. I didn't know any of these other ones.

1004
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 3: It's down with the sickness for me. Disturbing, I guess

1005
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 3: was the headliner for this?

1006
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 4: Yeah new metal?

1007
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, seven seven Dust I think performed. There's a couple.

1008
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 5: Literally, this just sounds like the pregame mixtape for my

1009
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:49,719
Speaker 5: high school football team.

1010
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 3: You had this Disturbers on it, I'm sure.

1011
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:59,359
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, tough guys, serious drowning pool remember that?

1012
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:06,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, bodies at the floor. Oh yeah, that was This

1013
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 3: sounds like an awesome show man.

1014
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 4: We gotta go to this.

1015
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:10,319
Speaker 1: Oh that was crazy.

1016
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 3: Something tells me they're not going to be touring through

1017
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:15,239
Speaker 3: Atlanta with Disturbed. I don't know. I just don't think

1018
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:19,400
Speaker 3: they're coming right there. Probably the South they pick and

1019
00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:20,359
Speaker 3: choose to come to the.

1020
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 1: South types of music metals takes off here though. We

1021
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:29,439
Speaker 1: got our friends, ourful ear old friends, Rick Kamlon, Todd Crow.

1022
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 2: They love their metal, yeah, but they usually had, didn't

1023
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:33,799
Speaker 2: they have to drive to I know you're right, they

1024
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:34,319
Speaker 2: would have some.

1025
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 1: Shows, but they'd be outdoor shows. If there was flames everywhere, No,

1026
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:39,360
Speaker 1: I don't know where it was, but it feels like

1027
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:43,480
Speaker 1: it was at the Lakewood Amphitheater. It wouldn't happen light

1028
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 1: up the State Farm Arena with flames like that. That

1029
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 1: was ridiculous. I'm interested to see how this banner is damaged.

1030
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 3: So, yeah, show us the photos. Yeah, why are they

1031
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 3: showing it to us? Yeah, let's see what happened. I mean,

1032
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 3: I didn't.

1033
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 2: I do respect that video from Zach though, where you

1034
00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,760
Speaker 2: see at least it's like it's waving and being affected.

1035
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 3: So thank you, Zach. They're coming to Duluth, Gas South

1036
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 3: Arena Ian they were coming to Atlanta.

1037
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 4: Man, they're dodging us.

1038
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 2: All right, let's get to pick them for Monday night.

1039
00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 2: There's a lot of games on tonight. Task where are

1040
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 2: we going?

1041
00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 1: It was an easy decision, Denver versus Golden State. Why

1042
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 1: the heck not minus five and a half for the

1043
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: Golden State Wars an ESPN game. I hope Richard Jefferson

1044
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 1: is on the call. Seems to be a former teammate

1045
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 1: of Nikola Jokic. He spent his last season there in Denver.

1046
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:36,720
Speaker 1: Former teammate of Jamal Murray. Michael Malone was the coach.

1047
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 1: He could tell us why Michael Malone doesn't like to

1048
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 1: be called Mike Malone.

1049
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 5: Here's also a former teammate, Steph Curry, right, wasn't He

1050
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 5: wasn't Richard Jefferson telling that story because I think he

1051
00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:49,239
Speaker 5: was on the broadcast for Warriors versus Nicks. Yeah, and

1052
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 5: he had like I think he was a Warrior maybe

1053
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:52,319
Speaker 5: when Curry was a rookie or.

1054
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,319
Speaker 3: Something like that. It wasn't that long ago something like that.

1055
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 1: They snuck him in there.

1056
00:46:57,239 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was there in twenty eleven twelve, came over

1057
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 2: that season and then played the next season.

1058
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:06,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I forgot. We'll have some stories. I'm sure

1059
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:09,920
Speaker 1: understandable that the three of you guys took Golden State

1060
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 1: to cover that five and a half I got Denver

1061
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 1: to cover. I think there'll be a little upset for

1062
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:18,319
Speaker 1: how they lost to the Washington Wizards, and uh yeah,

1063
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 1: we should get a close game, although Golden State and

1064
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 1: the way they play offense will score a lot of points.

1065
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:27,640
Speaker 1: I do think in this game but so should Denver.

1066
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:31,799
Speaker 2: I mean, you'll catch generally owns them, but it'll be fun.

1067
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 2: I don't remember Richard Jefferson.

1068
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,720
Speaker 3: Playing for the Bucks. Played a full season for the Bucks,

1069
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,359
Speaker 3: an average of twenty points per game, twenty a game.

1070
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 3: What after Jefferson a lot of teams.

1071
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:45,120
Speaker 2: I think there's a forgotten year because it's after his

1072
00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:47,120
Speaker 2: long New Jersey stint. And then he went to the

1073
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,319
Speaker 2: Spurs and I remember that. But he played one full

1074
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 2: season with the Bucks, all eighty two games.

1075
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:53,279
Speaker 3: What a guy?

1076
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:54,040
Speaker 5: What a guy?

1077
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:54,560
Speaker 3: All right?

1078
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 2: So you got the Nuggets keep it close, everybody else

1079
00:47:56,680 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 2: taking the Warriors to cover. We got a new podcast

1080
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:05,160
Speaker 2: on the Athletic Network, or at least a revamped podcast.

1081
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,400
Speaker 2: No rest in the world of women's hoops.

1082
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:08,719
Speaker 1: Man.

1083
00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 2: We go from Ncuba straight to the WNBA Draft, and

1084
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,680
Speaker 2: that season you got unrivaled of course going on. I

1085
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 2: believe the playoffs have started for that. No shortage of excitement,

1086
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 2: which is why the Athletic has launched no off season,

1087
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 2: that revamped women's basketball podcast featuring a lot of our friends,

00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 5: see it got a guy named Wolf. Yeah, seven foot

1114
00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,719
Speaker 5: handles the ball. Yeah yeah, I did watch a little

1115

Speaker 5: bit of it. I was like, okay, he was fired up.

1116
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:42,960
Speaker 5: But you guys are a fifth seed. I saw despite

1117
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 5: winning that that conference.

1118
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:46,840
Speaker 4: Again they had I think they got hot in the tournament.

1119
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 5: They had a pretty poor close to the end of

1120
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 5: the regular season before getting into tournament time.

1121
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 3: And then you know it's only it's one game any

1122
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 3: team that's right.

1123
00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 2: And the SEC talking about the South here fourteen teams.

1124
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,000
Speaker 3: I think that's a record. Yeah for a conference. Now,

1125
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 3: that's crazy. But it's just like it's the entire bracket.

1126
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:08,319
Speaker 3: They should put them all on one side.

1127
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:10,160
Speaker 5: The SEC is so good at all of their football

1128
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:11,360
Speaker 5: schools are good at basketball.

1129
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:12,360
Speaker 3: Now, it's like Auburn.

1130
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:16,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, Georgia is in this in turn, I think they're

1131
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,160
Speaker 2: at Nights Tech didn't make it.

1132
00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 3: I don't think that they I know they're not.

1133
00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:20,279
Speaker 1: I don't think so.

1134
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:24,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, yeah, cool basketball. That's the time to watch it.

1135
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:26,680
Speaker 1: It would be a home game for Georgia if they

1136
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:30,319
Speaker 1: make it to the Sweet sixteen. I guess they're having

1137
