23
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: on the Gram this morning, but we had a call yesterday.

24
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: We were talking to each other. Lee tried to call

25
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: in a couple of times, and we did see the

26
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 1: locks flowing out of like, uh, you know, a bucket hat.

27
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: I don't know another way to put it. My man

28
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 1: was wearing a bucket hat. He looked like he was

29
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: ready to be beach stepping, and yeah, I mean he

30
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 1: was letting those locks fly. Yeah.

31
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 3: Oh, he had just come off the beach. And I

32
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 3: would call that a sun hat, like.

33
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, for sure.

34
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 3: It is more of a brim on it, you know,

35
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 3: like a protective, protective brim.

36
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: But he was.

37
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 3: He had salt water all over and you could tell.

38
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: Yes, you know, all over that sunshirt.

39
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: And it was nice to know that someone had a

40
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 2: worst Wi Fi connection than I do, because, yeah, his

41
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,119
Speaker 2: Hotel Resorts WiFi was not all that strong. He could

42
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 2: barely even talk to us. He was just standing there

43
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 2: in a sun hat, dripping wet in his hotel room.

44
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 2: But it was good to see him anyway. Yeah, his

45
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: locks look crazy.

46
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: Wow, you're not killing his shoulders. Salt water, though it

47
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,640

Speaker 2: and then that's Mantres harral in there. Get full credit

74
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 2: for Agett. It's stuck man. They do some great camera

75
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 2: work with these wedgies. Hey, they just cut to it

76
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 2: right away, like, yeah, there it is, get that close up.

77
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 2: So yeah, number forty. Uh what this is like our

78
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: fourth or fifth in the past couple of nights. We're

79
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 2: rolling right now or on pace for fifty eight. We're

80
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 2: gonna shatter the modern Weggie record. You can lock that in.

81
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: I want to know, Trey and JD. Will we be

82
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 2: celebrating just hitting fifty wedgies because that was always the

83
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: goal or should we just wait at this point to

84
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 2: celebrate you know, the record breaking weggie which correct me

85
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 2: if I'm wrong, would be fifty two because fifty one

86
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 2: is the highest waver. Like, so what do you think, Trey?

87
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: I think we still got to celebrate fifty and then

88
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 1: we will re celebrate once we whatever the final record

89
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: ends up being, because I mean, if we're putting up

90
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: Weggie number Dorty here on April thirteenth, like we should

91
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: get over fifty two. You see the pace there, fifty eight.

92
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: I think it's a little inflated right now because we've

93
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: had a crazy week for Weggies in these past, you know,

94
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: seven to ten days or something like that. But yeah,

95
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: fifty is still a major accomplishment, right. It's like if

96
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 1: a baseball player were to hit sixty home runs, you're

97
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: still getting excited about sixty even though they got a hit. However,

98
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 1: many to beat Barry Bonds.

99
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 2: Okay, I like that, Yeah.

100
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 3: I do, But I think that we should. We made

101
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 3: a bit of a mistake when we celebrated the fifty

102
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 3: the last time because we went crazy, right it was

103
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 3: at the party to end all parties when that fiftieth came,

104
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 3: and then we got another one after and then it

105
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 3: was just like, oh yeah, by the way we got so,

106
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 3: you know, maybe a small celebration and then wait for

107
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 3: the record, because we're gonna break. We're gonna go, We're

108
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 3: gonna get fifty two. We have to, right yeah, I

109
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 3: mean at this point that this rate, I'm just I'm just.

110
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 2: Trying to figure out. Are we gonna hit fifty two

111
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 2: before we even hit the playoffs?

112
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 4: Wow?

113
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 2: Use playoff wedgies count, you know in all of this,

114
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,479
Speaker 2: like we're counting those to the season total. But could

115
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 2: we hit it before we even get there in a

116
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,919
Speaker 2: shortened season, it would be special. Right now, just enjoy

117
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 2: the ride, enjoy the wedgie of your crack because it's

118
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 2: incredible right now. Okay, let's get to the games. We'll

119
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 2: start with to scoring thirty two really entertaining late games.

120
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 2: Celtics edge the Blazers one sixteen, one fifteen. Tray. Where

121
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 2: do you want to start with this one?

122
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: You mentioned its keys. This was fun worth going back

123
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: and watching the last minute, So let's start that there.

124
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: Down to about a minute left, Dame Lillard finds CJ.

125
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,919
Speaker 1: McCollum in the corner. He knocks down to three. On

126
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: the other end, Jason Tatum goes, He draws a file,

127
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: hits a couple of free throws. Celtics now up by one.

128
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: Lillard misses on the next Portland possession. The Celtics go

129
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 1: to Tatum again, a massive three from the top of

130
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 1: the key, A nice little side step right over CJ.

131
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 2: McCollum.

132
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: That thing looked nice. Celtics up four, but it's not

133
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: over quite yet. Norm Powell hits an absolute bomb to

134
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: pull Portland within one. There's about five seconds left. Celtics

135
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: get it back. Marcus Smart goes to the line. He

136
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: misses the first, right misses the second on purpose. Yeah,

137
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: with three seconds left, you know it's a little risky, uh,

138
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: taking a chance that the Trailblazers could get the rebu

139
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: push it up court and maybe hit a half court shot.

140
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: This is Dame Lillard we're talking about here. I wouldn't

141
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 1: put anything passim. I saw him beat the Bulls on

142
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 1: a three pointer off a jump ball. He could do it,

143
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: but somehow the Celtics played great defense off the miss

144
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: free throw made it impossible for Lillard. He chucks up

145
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: a full court or not even close. Celtics wins. Celtics win.

146
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: Shout out to the Bean Town Boys all in. Although

147
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: a huge game for Tatum you mentioned at thirty two points,

148
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: he had eight in the fourth quarter, including that backbreaking three.

149
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: Ten of seventeen shooting, nine boards, five assists, and I

150
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: think it's fun to watch him and Carmelo Anthony have

151
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: a good game against each other since they have such

152
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: similar styles and their players that are kind of compared

153
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: to each other. Like we're saying, is Jason Tatum going

154
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: to be the new Carmelo Anthony And what's how is

155
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: his playmaking going to develop in the future to maybe

156
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: exceed what Melow did with the Knicks back in the day.

157
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: Great stuff though from Tatum. Four straight wins for Boston

158
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: there now up to fifth in the Eastern Conference, And

159
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: to me, the real key for this team right now

160
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: is Robert Williams. Seven and three. The Celtics are since

161
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: the trade deadline, that's when Robert Williams moved into the

162
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: starting line up. Daniel Tye went to the Bulls. He

163
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: had a nice game in that comeback against the Nuggets

164
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: and another one last night. Sixteen points, seven rebounds, eight

165
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: to twelve, shooting, four assists. Really nice from your center.

166
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: Gives them a little bit of athleticism, some vertical explosion,

167
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: a lob threat that you're not getting from Daniel Tye

168
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: or really anybody else on their roster. He puts that

169
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: pressure on the rim they don't get from their perimeter players.

170
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: Brad Stevens talked about it. There are a lot of

171
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: times that the perimeter guys kind of go east to west,

172
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: and Robert Williams is a downhill north to south player.

173
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: So when he's able to have an impact underneath the

174
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: rim and you know, drawing defenders in towards the rim,

175
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 1: that's great for the Celtics. When Robert Williams is able

176
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: to stay on the court when he's at his best,

177
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: so are the Celtics. He was great last night, Tatum

178
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: was great. Great performances honestly from the entire starting lineup

179
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,719
Speaker 1: for the Celtics. So a really nice win for the

180
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: Bean town boys.

181
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 5: Yeah.

182
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 2: Absolutely. I think Tatum after the game said, you know,

183
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 2: they're trending in the right direction, which is no doubt true.

184
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 2: They are heading up the Eastern Conference standings. And we've

185
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 2: talked about it a million times. You have one good week,

186
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 2: week and a half of basketball, especially in the East,

187
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 2: and you're going from you know, the eighth, ninth or

188
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 2: tenth spot all the way up to what'd you say

189
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 2: fifth here as of dort Day as we are now

190
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 2: celebrating it. But yeah, Robert Williams had a huge layup

191
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 2: with like around the two minute mark, and then he

192
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 2: had another tip in too that kept the Celtics in front.

193
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 2: So like some timely baskets as well, that was a big,

194
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 2: big victory, really fun game. Yeah, if you didn't watch

195
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 2: that one live because it was late and you're on

196
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 2: the East Coast or wherever you are in the world,

197
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 2: go at least watch like the highlights or the final

198
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 2: couple of minutes, like Trey said, back and forth, big

199
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 2: shot after big shot, because it looked like the Celtics

200
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 2: were going to like comfortably run away with it there too.

201
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 2: And of course, you know the Blazers have a guy

202
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 2: named Damian Lillard who's like, we're not going down without

203
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 2: a fight. But Bladers have now lost five of their

204
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 2: last seven, so they're going in the opposite direction of

205
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 2: where the Celtics are going. But with that Tatum shot,

206
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 2: Trey the one that was the dagger, I know, we

207
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 2: got into the hyjenks there of the missing the free throw,

208
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 2: and it was a good call by Brad's He was

209
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 2: like he was like screaming, got smart after he missed

210
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 2: the first time, miss miss, miss miss, And uh yeah,

211
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 2: it wasn't enough time to obviously go the full length

212
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 2: to the court and get a good look. But is

213
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 2: that Tetum's signature move now, like that side step three?

214
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 2: I mean he goes to it all the time in

215
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 2: like sort of clutch situations. Look at JD racking it

216
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 2: up for us here like rack. No, this is his

217
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 2: I mean he's done this so many times, and sometimes

218
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 2: it banks in, sometimes he misses it, yeah, and then

219
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,959
Speaker 2: sometimes of course he splashes it. I feel like it's

220
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,119
Speaker 2: sort of his signature clutch.

221
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: Move at least it definitely is, And it's not surprising.

222
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 1: He's a good shooter and he's got size. So when

223
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,079
Speaker 1: there's a switch and you know he's got three or

224
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: four inches on CJ. McCollum, that's almost a guarantee that

225
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 1: you're at least gonna be getting a good shot up.

226
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: And you know, it can get frustrating watching perimeter players

227
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: and settle for jumpers. That's what it feels like a

228
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 1: lot of the time. But it's also a thing where

229
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 1: you are guaranteed to get a shot right. There's not

230
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 1: a guarantee if you're driving into the hoop. Maybe you

231
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: don't get a foul call and maybe somebody strips the

232
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: ball as they as they reach into help on your

233
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: drive something like that. It's a it's more of a

234
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 1: sure thing that you're at least gonna get a nice

235
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: attempt up. And when you're a good shooter like Tatum

236
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: and you've got that size advantage, like he doesn't even

237
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 1: see CJ. McCollum really challenging him. It's almost an open

238
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: shot for Jason Tatum. So he's got the handle for it,

239
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: he's got the skills and the shot to be able

240
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 1: to pull it off. Of course, you want him to

241
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: go to the hoop sometimes, but I mean that's gonna

242
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: be his bread and butter, as it often is for

243
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: a perimeter player.

244
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, if Lee was here, he'd be upset with that

245
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 2: shot selection because he's always talking about attack, attack, attack,

246
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 2: and he's right. But that's a great point that you said,

247
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 2: like you can attack, but things can happen because there's

248
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 2: just more bodies and hands in there, and maybe there's

249
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 2: a fumbling of the ball and maybe you get felt,

250
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 2: but there's no whistle. You're just guaranteed to get your

251
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 2: shot here. It is Kobe, like I will say with Tatum,

252
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 2: especially on like these sort of like game winning attempts

253
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,439
Speaker 2: or the dagger ones. He really leans into the Kobe

254
00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 2: factor of leaning back. He loves even extra space there

255
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 2: by on the jump shot doing like the classic Kobe fade.

256
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 2: But whatever, he knocked it down and he was pretty

257
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 2: special there. And the Celtics are rolling because Jaele Brown

258
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 2: had a decent game. Kemba who's playing really really well

259
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,199
Speaker 2: for them. So yeah, with Robert Williams as really their

260
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: only I mean, Tristan Thompson was okay in his spot

261
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 2: minutes in this game because he could match up with

262
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 2: a team like that, but Robert Williams if he could

263
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 2: stay on the floor. Yeah, they're a little different look

264
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,319
Speaker 2: and they're feeling good about themselves. All right, let's keep

265
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 2: it going though. Another team rolling. Paul George dominates the Pacers.

266
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 2: Remember when he used to play for Indiana it feels

267
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 2: like ten years ago, to help lead the Clippers to

268
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 2: their sixth straight victory. So yeah, out of night where

269
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 2: Tatum had it going, you sort of compared him to

270
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 2: Kamalo Anthony. Well, a lot of people throw out the

271
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 2: Tatum Paul George comparisons at times too. What do you

272
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 2: think of PG? And he's just on a tear right now,

273
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 2: No Kawhi in this for the second game in a row,

274
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 2: and he goes for thirty plus.

275
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: On fire right now is exactly right. Four straight games

276
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 1: for Paul George with thirty or more points, and I

277
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 1: think he would be the unanimous MVP if he got

278
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: to play the pay in Indiana. Every game brood all night.

279
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: Not a ton of fans there. Still went out and

280
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: smacked them thirty six, seven rebounds, eight assists, a couple

281
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 1: of steals. Paul George is now four and oh against

282
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: the Pacers in Indiana.

283
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 2: Pretty good.

284
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: Uh, No Kawhi Leonard for the Clippers. Still an easy win.

285
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: I thought for LA six straight now, uh for LA

286
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 1: four and oh with Rondo in the mix, And honestly,

287
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: you can see the effects already because the ball is

288
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: a moving for the Clippers. They had thirty four assists

289
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: last night. They hit thirteen threes. Those assists, man, those

290
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: are huge. This is a middle of the pack assist team.

291
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: With Kawhi Leonard and Paul George's they can obviously get

292
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: into a lot of one on one battles where it

293
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: feels like you know, my turn, your share, my turn,

294
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: your turn. But when the ball is moving. They look

295
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: a lot better. Paul George had a nice assist game,

296
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: five for Rondo, four for Reggie Jackson Reggie Jackson, four

297
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: for Luke Canard, and four for Patrick Patterson. What I

298
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: got surprised to even see Patrick Patterson out there. I'm like,

299
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: oh yeah, Patrick Patterson still getting me. That's audishing. The

300
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,680
Speaker 1: assists had four last night. Crazy postgame, Paul George said

301
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: the Reds are getting easier because everybody can shoot except

302
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: for Zoo. I thought that was a hilarious line. He's like,

303
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: we got a great shooting team except for the big guy.

304
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 1: So you know, Shaq was dying laugh and he's like, nah, man,

305
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 1: he's a beast in the paint, which he is. Zoo

306
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: Bots is a double double kind of guy, but he's

307
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: not shooting threes. So bars from Paul George. The other

308
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: thing I really liked from this game, Terrence Man caught

309
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: an alley oop on the fast break and you could

310
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: hear Iron Eagle perk up.

311
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 2: He's like, that was a man's jam.

312
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: He had been waiting his entire career for a guy

313
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: named Man to catch an alley oop on the fast break,

314
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: so we could drop his signature phrase and have it

315
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: mean something a little extra. Nice stuff from the Clippers,

316
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 1: great stuff from Iron Eagle.

317
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean PG was doing it all right. He

318
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 2: had the threes going, he had stopping on a dime,

319
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 2: hitting the step backs going. He had one of those.

320
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: One of those was an alley oop to Terrence Man.

321
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 2: He had another one I think too as well. And

322
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 2: then he had the double clutch two handed baseline done

323
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 2: from Paul George. That was I mean, you know, it's

324
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 2: not a dunk on someone like we've seen over the

325
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 2: last couple of days. We even had Caleb Martin Duncan

326
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 2: on another guy last night for the Hornets after Bridges

327
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 2: had just done it, maybe the dunk of the year.

328
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 2: But like the double clutch, like almost avoiding the block

329
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 2: is pretty damn special too. You could tell Paul George

330
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 2: was even hyped about that one. He's like, oh, yeah,

331
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 2: that was that was pretty nice there. So he's rolling.

332
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 2: I have a question with Paul George because a lot

333
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 2: of people don't care about him at all. They hate him. Actually,

334
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 2: if we're being honest, are you like rooting for him

335
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 2: at all in the playoffs, because, like we talked about

336
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 2: Hardens sort of having like a checkered I guess, questionable

337
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 2: playoff appearances at times, games at times where maybe he

338
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 2: has some disappointing ones. Chris Paul sort of gets lumped

339
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 2: in there too, obviously not going far to the finals

340
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 2: or stuff like that, despite being a Hall of Famer.

341
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: But like Paul.

342
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 2: George, like went out with what shooting four to sixteen

343
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 2: like a dot of a game seven after they blew

344
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 2: a three to one lead. I mean it was right

345
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 2: off the backboard. Yeah, it was bad, bad, bad bad.

346
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: And again, he's a lot of things that people are

347
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 2: left like scratching their heads. We've talked about it a

348
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 2: million times, like what are you doing, Paul George? Just

349
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 2: like just play ball. You're not making it any better

350
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 2: or easier on yourself with some of your comments sometimes.

351
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 2: But like he could really use like an awesome postseason run,

352
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 2: could he not hear? Because he does like these stretches

353
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 2: in regular seasons and then at times it goes disappearing

354
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 2: in the playoffs. Are you at all rooting for him?

355
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 2: And a weird I don't know if that's the right

356
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 2: way to put it.

357
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: You're trolling me right now? Well, are you testing me?

358
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: I little aledged this season. Nothing bad to say about

359
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: Paul George. The book is written. Am I rooting for him?

360
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: Is what you're asking me? Yeah, you're crazy man, skeets. Okay,

361
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: I'm happy to see him balling out. I do like

362
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: when Paul George plays well because he's a fun player

363
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: to watch when he's on fire, and like you're saying,

364
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: he had that huge dunk on the same day as

365
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: as Miles Bridges, he had this double clutch. You can

366
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: tell he's in the in rhythm right now and he's

367
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: feeling pretty good. The legs are there, the shot is there.

368
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: I mean, here's a guy that can finish in the

369
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: top five and MVP voting, but there's gonna be a

370
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: spotlight on him in the playoffs. I've seen Paul George

371
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 1: have a lot of great regular seasons and it would

372
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: be nice to see him follow that up with an

373
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: incredible postseason to really shut me up. Yeah, am I

374
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 1: anticipating it? Only time will tell. I took a pledge.

375
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, like Pierre here in the stream team, he

376
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 2: says Paul George is the most overrated underrated player. Wrap

377
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 2: your head around that one. Is there any truth to that?

378
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 2: You think?

379
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. I don't know, man,

380
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:31,919
Speaker 1: I don't know what who I was supposed to tell you.

381
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: I think Paul George is the most elite three and

382
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,159
Speaker 1: D player in the league. That seems like a diss,

383
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: But the guy's an incredible three point shooter. He is

384
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 1: an incredible defender as well. He can elevate his game

385
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 1: to be a number one guy when like Kawhi Leonard

386
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: is sitting out, but he is made as a number

387
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: two guy. He is a perfect number two to fit

388
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: along another superstar who can but he can obviously sees

389
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,919
Speaker 1: the reins when he needs to. Is he the most

390
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 1: overrated underplayer under a player that's impossible to think of?

391
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 1: Is he perfectly rated? Seems like it.

392
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he's like you're basically saying, Ken, I mean, now,

393
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 2: this is really gonna test you, But he's a Pippen

394
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 2: light Is that fair? Like that's my role? Of course?

395
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: I think you're trying to kill me here, SKEATESH. Yeah,

396
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:18,679
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on here. Now you're comparing

397
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,679
Speaker 1: Paul George to Scottie Pippen.

398
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 2: Well, you just said, you just said he needs to

399
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 2: be a second wingy. You know, in the terms of

400
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 2: the ranking of a team, obviously Pippen was that. But

401
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 2: we saw pippin two go to next levels when Jordan

402
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 2: wasn't there this season he wasn't and you call him

403
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 2: a three and D guy. Now Pippen's not hitting the three,

404
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 2: but obviously defensive like stud on that end. So I'm

405
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 2: just making throwing it out here at you just see

406
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 2: what you'll do to it.

407
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: Think it's okay, Skates. I think I think it's fair.

408
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: I've said Paul George is a number two guy since Indiana,

409
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: Pippen one of the best number twos of all time.

410
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 1: So I will allow this. I will allow it. Oh man,

411
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 1: I'm feeling anxiety right now. My heart is like beating

412
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 1: out of my chest with these questions. You're asking me,

413
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,199
Speaker 1: am I rooting for Paul George? And is he like

414
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 1: a Chicago Bulls legend? What's next? Are you gonna try

415
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: and tell me that Paul George is the greatest basketball

416
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: player in the history of Chicago. I don't think so.

417
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 2: I would dare not say that. I just think it's

418
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 2: interesting to see the reaction, especially here in the stream team,

419
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 2: to all of these Paul George comments. And me just

420
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 2: asking you these hypotheticals. I am not saying these are

421
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 2: my hot takes. I'm just testing you and we will

422
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 2: see what Paul George can do come playoff time. Because really, again,

423
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 2: I know I keep saying it, it doesn't really matter

424
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,159
Speaker 2: with the Honist and the Bucks, and it doesn't really

425
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 2: matter with the Paul George and Kawhi and the Clippers

426
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 2: the regular season. That is, like do it in the playoffs,

427
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,199
Speaker 2: like go as far as you're expected to go. And

428
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,679
Speaker 2: until you do that, you're just always gonna have these

429
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 2: questions hanging over your head, and in Paul George's case,

430
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 2: you're gonna have a lot of the haters coming at

431
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:52,399
Speaker 2: you in the stream, team included.

432
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 1: They asked him postgame, would it be a disappointment if

433
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: you don't make the finals this year? Remember after they

434
00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: lost last year, he said that that was not a

435
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 1: winning a championship was not a goal, despite the fact

436
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 1: that the Clippers were a super team. He did say, yeah,

437
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,439
Speaker 1: they anticipate being the last team standing. To me, that

438
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,160
Speaker 1: means he's talking about winning a championship more so, even

439
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:14,879
Speaker 1: than just advancing to the finals. What's a solid season

440
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 1: for the Clippers Is it making the conference finals or

441
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 1: would that be a disappointment? Is making the finals the goal?

442
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: R I mean a championship the ultimate goal? But a

443
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 1: solid season would that only be if they actually get

444
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 1: to the NBA finals?

445
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting, Like is it finals or bust? I

446
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 2: don't think so, oddly enough, you know, look, you can't

447
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 2: go drop in a three one series lead. That would

448
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 2: be worse case scenario in whatever round that were to

449
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 2: happen in. I think conference finals with one hell of

450
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 2: a war against whoever they're against, is like a successful

451
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 2: season if that's where they went out. But yeah, I

452
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 2: mean they should be, as we're seeing here, one of

453
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 2: the legit title contenter, especially with what happened to the

454
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 2: Nuggets after Jamal Murray's injury. I mean that does open

455
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,159
Speaker 2: it up a little bit more for their chances to

456
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 2: go far and maybe have that battle with the Lakers

457
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 2: and you know who, you know, maybe the Jazz give

458
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 2: them trouble Son stuff like that. But yeah, I think

459
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 2: I think conference finals but not getting shell act. They

460
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 2: would have to be like a game or two from

461
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 2: going to the finals to still be a very successful season.

462
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 2: But maybe a successful season is Paul George playing like

463
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 2: a Scottie Pippen in a playoffs series. That is what

464
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 2: I'm getting out here. All right, We'll stop with the

465
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,360
Speaker 2: Paul George talk, though, I think it's fascinating. Our next

466
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 2: game here, Son's got a big knight from their bench.

467
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 2: They crushed the Heat one oh six eighty six. This

468
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 2: is just worth noting here because on a night when

469
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 2: Booker and Chris Paul and I don't believe this is

470
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 2: a typo, guys combine for seventeen points, the two of them,

471
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 2: those two like all star all NBA ish players, seventeen

472
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 2: points combined, and the Sun still win by twenty. I

473
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 2: mean it was the bench was awesome. Campaign fourteen points,

474
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 2: seven assists to help lead that bench to score sixty

475
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 2: five points total. And you had Cam Johnson chipping in fifteen,

476
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 2: Tory Craig fourteen Sarch thirteen, even Jaman Carter, who I

477
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 2: really like, like Jumon Carter is like your third sort

478
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 2: of like point guard. That's good, that's awesome, especially when

479
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 2: there's like maybe a guy like Chris Paul didn't have

480
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 2: it going that night and you can get him out

481
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 2: there with some of these other guys. He had nine points,

482
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 2: three three pointers. Anyway, the Suns get this great victory again,

483
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 2: totally flying under the radar. They won ten to their

484
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 2: last eleven, including three in a row, and they've improved

485
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 2: to what are like thirty nine and fifteen, thirty eight

486
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 2: and fifteen. I don't have it right in front of me,

487
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 2: but they're not too far behind the Utah Jazz. Who

488
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 2: I know how forty wins at this point. So just

489
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 2: an awesome victory again from the Suns. I did think

490
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 2: it was really fun to see Brian Windhorse. I was

491
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 2: watching this game on the Sun's broadcast. They had Brian

492
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 2: Windhorse in like a small box in the corner.

493
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: I saw that.

494
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, so they had him on and they're just like,

495
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:48,919
Speaker 2: you know, I guess they're just doing the classic thing

496
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,880
Speaker 2: of like, hey, what's the national media talking thinking about

497
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 2: the Suns? You know, where do they fall in the

498
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 2: power rankings and all that. So it was sort of cool.

499
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 2: But one of the questions Trey was Monty Williams, is

500
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 2: he the favorite right now for Coach of the Year.

501
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 2: And you know, we haven't actually done a lot of

502
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 2: like award talk with some of these other awards. Obviously

503
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,479
Speaker 2: we talk about the MVP race every three days here

504
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 2: on the show, But like, is it Monty Williams, is

505
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 2: it Quinn Snyder? Is it someone else that maybe you know,

506
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 2: like Tom Thibodeau, what he's done with the Knicks, Like

507
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 2: where would you have money Williams? Or now would he

508
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 2: get your vote if the season ended today as Coach

509
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 2: of the Year. This is a top five team offensively

510
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 2: and defensively, which is pretty m special. Third best net

511
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 2: rating in the league, Phoenix Suns. Is this all because

512
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 2: of MANI or does like too much credit then immediately

513
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 2: go to like a Chris Paul or even like a

514
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 2: j crowd like the Vets that are on the floor.

515
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 2: What do you think?

516
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, does having Chris Paul as a coach on the

517
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 1: floor jeopardizer coach of the Coach of the Year votes?

518
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. This is always one of the toughest

519
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,719
Speaker 1: awards to decide on at the end of the season

520
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:54,120
Speaker 1: because there's always so many teams that have overachieved expectations.

521
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: Like you're saying the Grizzlies would be in the mix here,

522
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 1: the Knicks would be in the mix here with Tom Thibodeau,

523
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: but they're game over five hundred. I think what Monty

524
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 1: Williams and the Sons have done is incredibly impressive to

525
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: bring in a big time player and a high usage

526
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 1: player in Chris Paul and have him fit in perfectly.

527
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 1: A lot of that, certainly is Chris Paul being a

528
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,440
Speaker 1: great player and understanding how to make teams better wherever

529
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 1: he goes. But it would have been very easy for

530
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 1: the Sons to add a player like Chris Paul to

531
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: feel the pressure from that move to then try and

532
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,439
Speaker 1: follow up their eight to zero run in the bubble

533
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 1: last year and fall flat. But that hasn't happened at all.

534
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 1: The Suns have gotten better as the season has continued,

535
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: as we saw last night when they had an incredible

536
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: bench performance. They had five guys from the bench go

537
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 1: for double figures in the second half alone. There's a

538
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: ton of confidence amongst the Suns.

539
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 2: I think.

540
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: Eddie Johnson on the broadcast last night said that the

541
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 1: Sons have figured out the science of winning. Part of

542
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: that is Chris Paul bringing a little bit of his

543
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 1: leadership DNA, but a lot of it is Monty Williams

544
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: being there building the foundation and integrating Chris Paul and

545
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: just making it a seamless transition. So yeah, you can

546
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 1: definitely make a case for money Williams. He'll finish at

547
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: least top three, and I'm if you want to give

548
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 1: him Coach of the Year, goodbye me.

549
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough. I see a lot of people saying, well,

550
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 2: what about Steve Nash. I don't think Steve Nash is

551
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 2: gonna win Coach of the Year despite you know, obviously

552
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 2: with even a talented, talented team like juggling in guys

553
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 2: and finding some of these role players stepping up. It's impressive.

554
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 2: He'll get some votes, but I do not think he

555
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,360
Speaker 2: will win this. I think it's Quinn Snyder money Williams.

556
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 2: I mean I threw it out there sort of jokingly,

557
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 2: but maybe I was semi serious. With the Nate McMillan,

558
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 2: Will he get some votes with what he's done turning

559
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:34,679
Speaker 2: the Hawk season around, and think it's possible. And tom'sib

560
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 2: at all with the defense that he's got the next

561
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 2: playing and just being in a playoff race like if

562
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 2: they make like the if they're the sixth seed the

563
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 2: Knicks are and they're just in the playoffs, they're playing tournament. Man,

564
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 2: that's pretty damn impressive. Yeah, that's very, very impressive. So

565
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 2: we'll see Coach of the Year race. Some people don't

566
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 2: care at all, but I don't know. Money Williams has

567
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 2: got to be on the list, the short list. Chris Paul,

568
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,920
Speaker 2: by the way, had three steals in this game, pushed

569
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 2: him to two thousand, three hundred and eleven. He's fifth

570
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 2: all time in career steals, passed to Maurice Cheeks, who

571
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 2: was a fifth on that list. But he will not

572
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 2: be catching John Stockton, who is way, way wait ahead

573
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 2: of everybody at the number one spot. But good on

574
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 2: Chris Paul. All right. The other games notes that I'll

575
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 2: throw out your Trey Durant. The Nets beat the Timberwolves one,

576
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,479
Speaker 2: twenty seven to ninety seven in the rescheduled game. They

577
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 2: played that one in the afternoon. Durant looked awesome in

578
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 2: that kuzmanett at twenty four to help lift the Lakers pass.

579
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 2: These short handed Hornets won a one ninety three the

580
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 2: NBA leading Jazz. I looked it up forty one wins

581
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 2: for the Jazz, thirty nine for the Suns. The reason

582
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 2: I was hesitant it was really weird. Sometimes Basketball Reference,

583
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,360
Speaker 2: which is sort of my go to takes a while

584
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,479
Speaker 2: to update in the morning. That's right, you know, when

585
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,919
Speaker 2: we're getting ready for the show, it's somewhat earlier. Like

586
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 2: sometimes I'll get ready for WOA boy, and it like

587
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 2: won't update, like the best games from last night. It's like,

588
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 2: what's going on over there at basketball references? Like I

589
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 2: thought it was all just like I don't know, there's

590
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 2: not a human doing it right, Like they's pulling from

591
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 2: actual box scores. So I don't know why there's a

592
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 2: delay sometimes. But anyway, Jazz have forty one wins and

593
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 2: the Suns of thirty nine. Now, so the Jazz one again.

594
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 2: They beat the thunder who picked up their seventh straight loss.

595
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 2: But Dort time, baby, We'll get to him in a second.

596
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 2: And then a Bogdanovic and Capella led the Hawks pass

597
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 2: my wraps one oh seven, one o three. So yeah,

598
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 2: I know we're gonna get to uh, well, we got

599
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 2: some I was gonna call it dinner dinner beef, but

600
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 2: I guess it's breakfast beef here for us in a second.

601
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,159
Speaker 2: But Dort with the forty two points is pretty special.

602
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 2: Seven threes. It was only a second game back from

603
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 2: the concussion protocol. It kept him out for like seven games.

604
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 2: There just a reminder of Dort that this guy is

605
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 2: the best contract in the NBA by far, even if

606
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 2: he's not scoring forty two points because an elite lockdown defender.

607
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 2: And yes, the Jazz won the game. Don't get upset,

608
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,679
Speaker 2: Jazz fans, like you should beat the Thunder, don't get

609
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 2: me wrong. Even though you had to come back and

610
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 2: then you sort of gave it away a little bit,

611
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,160
Speaker 2: but you got the victory. But Dort one point five

612
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 2: million this year, one point seven million next year, one

613
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 2: point nine million in twenty twenty two to twenty three.

614
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 2: He turns twenty two years old next week. He is young,

615
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 2: so it's fun to celebrate Dort on Dort Day. Here,

616
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 2: April dorteenth. Incredible game, Like, this guy can score, he

617
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 2: kind of catch, he can He can get in the

618
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 2: rhythm to hit a bunch of threes, which obviously gets

619
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,439
Speaker 2: his scoring. If he took thirty one shots. Trade like

620
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 2: thoughts fleaning into the tank here, which you know is

621
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 2: the reason why Dort's taking thirty one shots. But the

622
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 2: guy was hitting you know, more than half them.

623
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, seven of eleven from three hilarious, three and seven

624
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 1: from the free throw line. Just step back, shoot your

625
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: free throws from the three. Why not? Maybe it'll go in.

626
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: But I don't know. When you see a guy like

627
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: Lou Dort score forty one points on thirty two attempts,

628
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: it just makes you think every NBA player could score

629
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: forty points if they really got this many attempts. It

630
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 1: was incredible from Dort. The guy's a tough matchup just

631
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: because of the strength he brings. But great stuff from Dort.

632
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 1: I love seeing him have a nice game because I

633
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 1: know it's going to go off in the stream team

634
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: the next day. So yeah, I also saw the thunder.

635
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 1: They tweeted out a clip from Lou Dort's game last

636
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: night and they said, cut.

637
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 2: My life in two pieces. This is my Lougans Dort.

638
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 2: I died. I saw that tweet too. I hope we

639
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 2: just didn't take g D's tweet the night there, but

640
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 2: my god, I was laughing. Also, the Jazz broadcast of

641
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 2: Matt Harpring on the call, he loves saying Dort just

642
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,239
Speaker 2: as much as we do. Every single time you can

643
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 2: drop on Dort, Dort Dort. He was doing so and

644
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 2: it's a you can see why. It's it's very very

645
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 2: contagious as the stream team literally just keeps treading Dort

646
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 2: and sports Center more like Dort Center. That's right, Scott,

647
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 2: A good one, good one, good one, Dort for sports Sure.

648
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 2: I love them all. People's Dort. Yes, that's a good

649
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 2: shirt too. That's a good shirt. Jesus, there's a lot

650
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 2: of Dort puns. Is this is just so fun. Before

651
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 2: we get to the big beef rookie Anthony Edwards after

652
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 2: the game, there was prior to the game, ra after theain.

653
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 2: It was after the game was asked Tuesday about Alex

654
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 2: Rodriguez being the you know in they the new Timberwolves owner,

655
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 2: and Edwards said, quote, I don't know who that is.

656
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 2: I know he's going to be the owner, but I

657
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 2: don't know anything about baseball. So he's a young kid,

658
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 2: like okay, so he's twenty, right whatever. And I don't

659
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 2: know when when was the last time Alex Rodriguez was

660
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 2: like socking dingers, you know, I don't know.

661
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 1: It's been five or six seasons that he's been retired

662
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: a little.

663
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,959
Speaker 2: Bit, so, I mean, is was Anthony Edwards trolling us

664
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 2: here a little bit? Like you know he is? He

665
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 2: is a hilarious quote machine already like he is gold,

666
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 2: like he is just he's so hilariously honest that it

667
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 2: makes for like such a refreshing interview because he either

668
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 2: is like, yeah, messing around with everybody, or he's just

669
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 2: doesn't care enough, or I don't know what it is.

670
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 2: But do you believe him that he doesn't know who

671
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 2: Alex Rodriguez is? What I'm getting out here, like, do

672
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 2: you truly believe that I don't know?

673
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. I saw the clip also going around

674
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: of him in the preseason, apparently saying if I would

675
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: have stuck with baseball, I could have made it to

676
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: the major leagues. And this one is a hilarious interview

677
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: because the interviewer is like really, He's like, yeah, I

678
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: played third base, shortstop, pitcher, in center field. And she's like, oh,

679
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: those are the premier positions. He's like, yeah, and I

680
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 1: batted fourth and fifth. What does that mean? She's like,

681
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: that's the cleanup here. He's like, that's right, clean up

682
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: and aisle three. No man knows about baseball, and he

683
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 1: is super quotable. He has to know a little bit

684
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 1: about Alex Rodriguez. He knows who Alex Rodriguez is. This

685
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: news that A Rod was gonna be buying part of

686
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: the Timberwolves. It broke not last night. It wasn't like

687
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: he's getting caught off guard about this. He would have

688
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: had a chance at least to look up A Rod.

689
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: You know, A Rod's not a hard guy to find.

690
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,479
Speaker 1: He does media stuff, He's still active on the internet

691
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 1: and obviously a legend in the baseball game. I think

692
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 1: he's fooling a little bit here, and it was hilarious.

693
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 2: Oh it's I mean, if he is fooling, he's uh

694
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 2: a pretty damn good actor, because it's like believable that

695
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 2: he doesn't know who Alex Rodriguez. And also maybe that

696
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 2: is the case, like maybe, I mean, I guess.

697
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 5: It is.

698
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 2: It just strange that you could play baseball when you

699
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 2: were younger, obviously at a time when Alex Rodriguez was

700
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 2: one of the better players in the game, like whether

701
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 2: or not you liked him, but you would think you

702
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 2: would just know enough about the sport maybe that you

703
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 2: were playing or you're boasting that you were good enough

704
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 2: to play quite well at a higher level, but not

705
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 2: know like the players in the league. Like it'd be

706
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 2: like it'd be like a younger version of you and me.

707
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 2: I guess playing basketball like on a youth team, but

708
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 2: not knowing, like obviously not Jordan, Like Alex Rodriguez is

709
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 2: not that high, but like, who would it be? Like

710
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 2: what would be the equivalent? I'm trying to think, like the.

711
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:53,719
Speaker 1: Nineties basketball is equivalent of Alex Rodriguez. Yeah, Reggie Miller

712
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 1: is Like is it Reggie Miller? I mean he played

713
00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: in a much smaller market Indiana versus New York, right,

714
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: I mean like a Hall of Fame player who has

715
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 1: a lot of classic moments.

716
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 4: I don't know.

717
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: Maybe they should have asked him about an Atlanta Brave.

718
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: They'd be like, are you are you familiar with Andrelton Simmons?

719
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: He was a Gold Glove shortstop when you were living

720
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 1: here in Georgia as well. Oh sure, Andleton number nineteen,

721
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: one of the greatest arms in the league. I don't know,

722
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't know. It seems impossible to me

723
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: that an athlete would not know about it.

724
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 2: I know, I don't know, but then again, you know

725
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 2: about doctor Alex Rodriguez from Inman Park. You don't know anything.

726
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 2: Anthony Others oh Man Fox five coming up on Fox

727
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 2: five all right, so let's get to what continues to

728
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 2: be You know, we talk about how great this season

729
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 2: has been for the Wedgies, but I mean arguably just

730
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 2: as good for Big Beef. Though I know we first

731
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 2: just started tracking it this year, but it feels like

732
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 2: we're getting more of these games than I don't know,

733
00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 2: the last couple.

734
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,160
Speaker 1: Of years, at least, no doubt. I've been busy. He

735
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: at the butcher shop this week, and Clint Capella had

736
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 1: me back on the block last night, slicing and dicing

737
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:17,800
Speaker 1: jd roll that beautiful beef footage. Clint Cappella had twenty

738
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,879
Speaker 1: one rebounds. That's a lot of roast beef. Unfortunately, there

739
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: was an interruption in the beef supply chain. I could

740
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 1: only find one. Nonetheless, did you see his quote? We

741
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:43,760
Speaker 1: got a beef beef, no dunks. We love roast beef,

742
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:47,839
Speaker 1: which is rebounds.

743
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 2: What's going on here? What do you mean?

744
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 1: Man? He was a Basketball Reference didn't update their stats.

745
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 1: My beef guy didn't come through with the ball liifs either.

746
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 1: Oh what a bummer. I was up last night refreshing

747
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 1: the box score, refreshing, refreshing. When is that twenty one

748
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: gonna turn blue, so I can rip all these clips

749
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 1: and slice up that beef. Never happened. I went to

750
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 1: bed thinking, all right, the beef will be there in

751
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 1: the morning. Nope, nope, beef.

752
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 5: Huh.

753
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 1: Kind of a bummer, But I don't know. Beefs are

754
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 1: hard to find. Rebound highlights are hard to find if

755
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: they're not coming from no duk. So I watched a

756
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 1: couple of Cappella highlight mixes from last night. Yeah, that's

757
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: all there was was that one tip in there. But nonetheless,

758
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: he still gave us a great quote about it. He said,

759
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 1: I think I'm the best rebounder in the game. You

760
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:37,800
Speaker 1: don't hear that very often, but he's got a claim.

761
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: That's his third beef of the season, right behind andis

762
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 1: Cancer and Rudy Gobar, tied with Yonas Valenciunas and Andre Drummond.

763
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 1: Capella is also leading the league in rebounds per game

764
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 1: right now. He's first in total rebound percentage first and

765
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:54,399
Speaker 1: offensive and defensive rebounding percentage. I have the numbers. He's

766
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 1: the best beefer out there.

767
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 2: Wow, all right, well what's going So this makes more

768
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 2: sense with this basketball repeat not updating as early as

769
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 2: it usually does. There was a something was up with

770
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 2: the technology that the league was using last night that

771
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 2: was delaying everything beef included the beef's gonna go bad.

772
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 2: You can't leave beef like hanging down after a game. Yeah, Jesus,

773
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 2: I don't know. Unless it's packed in like a freshly box,

774
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:25,399
Speaker 2: maybe that can last a little bit longer. But interesting, interesting, Okay, well,

775
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 2: congrats to congrats to Compella on his other beef. And yeah,

776
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 2: our twentieth volume of Big Beef this season. I mean,

777
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 2: are you going to continue this in the playoffs? I

778
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 2: guess big Beef in the playoffs that's even more special.

779
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 2: That's tough.

780
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: Probably little postseason beef, little prime rid, that's it's nice.

781
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: Of course I'll continue it. I wonder how high we'll

782
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,280
Speaker 1: get on the number. There are twenty two twenty rebound

783
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,239
Speaker 1: games this season. We've had a couple of double ups

784
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 1: in the volumes. But shout out to Adam Lefgo. He

785
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,759
Speaker 1: dropped that's a lot of roast beef on TNT last night.

786
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 1: I've been messaging with him for the entire season. He's like,

787
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 1: someday there's gonna be a twenty rebound game on a

788
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: Tuesday finally happen. Yes, shout out to Adam Leftgo, Thanks

789
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:07,839
Speaker 1: for listening. Thanks for dropping a big beef. Now, maybe

790
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: talk to somebody about releasing those clips. Bequeath the beef.

791
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:12,280
Speaker 1: You need to see the rebounds.

792
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,479
Speaker 2: Come man, bequeath the beef. Yeah, shout out to Leftgo.

793
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 2: That was awesome. I saw people tweeting about that. Great stuff.

794
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 2: All Right, we're gonna hit the beach here in a second,

795
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,399
Speaker 2: tease you a little bit for today's Later Beach Devon

796
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 2: podcast three pm Eastern on YouTube if you want to

797
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 2: join us life for that. But first, all right, we're

798
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,240
Speaker 2: jealous of Ley down on a real beach. So let's

799
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 2: just pretend we're kicking the sand around, splashing it around

800
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 2: the little water while we read some emails and tweets. Yeah,

801
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 2: that was a really weird intro to that, I understand it.

802
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 2: That's okay. You know, you do this a million times.

803
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 2: You try and keep it creative, and sometimes weird things

804
00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 2: come out of your mouth. That's just the way it is. Guys.

805
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:04,879
Speaker 2: All my god, this monster from the sea the ls.

806
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 2: So for all you podcast listeners, we're showing a photo

807
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 2: of Lee and his long locks and his snorkel equipment

808
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 2: down in. Where the hell is this guy? By the way,

809
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 2: Turks and Caicos. I believe that's where it's right. Yeah,

810
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 2: that's right and Cacos. Oh man, he is having the

811
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 2: time of his life. Looks like he does. Got some

812
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 2: sunscreen on there. I'm pretty happy with that. Maybe a

813
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:27,320
Speaker 2: rash guard there as well, so shout out to Lely. Wow. Okay,

814
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 2: first question as we hit the beach here, I just

815
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 2: want I just.

816
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 1: Wish we had Kevin Harlan drop so we can.

817
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 2: He does look like a creature from the sea there.

818
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,799
Speaker 1: Does it surprising to see Lee with his glasses off? Right? Like,

819
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 1: that's the thing for me is you can focus so

820
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 1: much more on those gorgeous locks.

821
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. Do you think those those goggles there are Felix Grace?

822
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:55,280
Speaker 2: Is that possible?

823
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:57,919
Speaker 1: Even there's no way he can see his shirt because

824
00:38:57,920 --> 00:38:58,960
Speaker 1: it blocks all the blue white.

825
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 2: I mean, if anybody he's to be wearing Felix grays

826
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 2: while we're on the beach, it's us because that's where

827
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 2: we always go to read emails and so it makes sense. Yeah,

828
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 2: I gotta still filter out that blue light. Okay, Hey, guys,

829
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 2: first question here, big fan of the show. Since the

830
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,400
Speaker 2: starter's days like You Think You, Thank You, the MVP

831
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:19,320
Speaker 2: race is still pretty wide open, but I'm hoping Jokic

832
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 2: wins it because it would be awesome to see a

833
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 2: former second round pick win the award. Technically speaking, the

834
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 2: only second rounder to win the award was Willis Reid

835
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,959
Speaker 2: in nineteen seventy, but he was the tenth overall pick.

836
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 2: There were only nine teams in the league when he

837
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 2: was drafted. In sixty four, Jokic was picked forty first overall.

838
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,440
Speaker 2: I do forget about that. In other words, a Jokic

839
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 2: MVP would be a first for the modern MBA personally,

840
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 2: given the rise of analytics and the global reach of

841
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,799
Speaker 2: scouts nowadays, I think Jokic could set a record that

842
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 2: stands the test of time as the lowest draft pick

843
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 2: to ever win MVP. Do you think Jokic will go

844
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 2: down as the best second round pick ever? Thanks as

845
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 2: from Dirk all the way from the Netherlands, it's a

846
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 2: good question. I do forget a lot of the time

847
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:06,920
Speaker 2: that Yolkich was a second round pick and then he

848
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 2: went forty first overall. If he wins it, maybe even

849
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 2: even if he doesn't, Trey is it possiblely Yokic does

850
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 2: go down as the best second round pick ever.

851
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 1: It's certainly possible. I was just thinking recently about I

852
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:22,720
Speaker 1: remember seeing Jokic in his first Summer League. I remember

853
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 1: him vividly throwing a sick pass from the right wing.

854
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,839
Speaker 1: Then I went and looked everything up. Who is this guy?

855
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,400
Speaker 2: He's behind Jeoffrey Laverne.

856
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: On the depth chart. Must just be some project. I

857
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: wonder if we'll ever hear from him again. I just

858
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 1: thought he was some dude. You know, there's a lot

859
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 1: of skilled seven footers out there, but there aren't a

860
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: lot of them who actually turn into incredible players who

861
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 1: make a run at the MVP. Obviously, Jokic did that.

862
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 1: He's got some competition, though, for the best second round

863
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,760
Speaker 1: picks ever. Draymond Green is in the mix. Three time champ,

864
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,879
Speaker 1: three time All Star, two time All NBA Defensive Player

865
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 1: of the Year, five time All Defense member. Mark Gasol

866
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: also in the mix. YEP champ, All Star, three times

867
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 1: All NBA, twice Defensive Player of the Year again and

868
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: only one time All Defense. Must have been the area

869
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 1: one DPO y or is that not right? No?

870
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 2: I don't think it is.

871
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's exactly right. So he had two

872
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,520
Speaker 1: honored defensive seasons. But I think the guy you would

873
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: probably pick as the best second round draft pick ever

874
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,319
Speaker 1: currently Manu Jenobli. Four time champ, two time All Star,

875
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 1: two time All NBA sixth Man of the Year, obviously

876
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 1: a Spurs legend. These guys are all champions, and they

877
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: all have individual accolades. Jokic is twenty six right now.

878
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 1: He's already a three time All Star, already a two

879
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 1: time All NBA player. He's going to be adding to

880
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: that number this season. Obviously, he'll be first team All NBA,

881
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 1: and he has a chance, like you said, Skeets at

882
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,880
Speaker 1: the ultimate individual accolade, getting that MVP title. Will be

883
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,799
Speaker 1: tough this season without Murray, but he's only twenty six.

884
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 1: He's got the time. I don't think Jokic is there

885
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 1: quite yet, but it's certainly in play, and he also

886
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 1: has the factor added for him that Draymond and Manu

887
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 1: do where they're kind of like the best known at something,

888
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: you know, like Monogenobili is probably the best sixth man

889
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 1: of his generation. Draymond is maybe the most versatile defender

890
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: of his generation and really ushered in the wave, a

891
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 1: small ball five who makes your team ultra switchable. Jokic

892
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 1: is gonna have that being the best passing big man ever.

893
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: So when it's all said and done, I think it's

894
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,359
Speaker 1: quite likely that Jokic is the best second round pick ever.

895
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 2: I think you just knocked that one out of the park.

896
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 2: I agree with everything you're saying. I think still it's Ginobili.

897
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,520
Speaker 2: But then I think in terms of just ranking them

898
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 2: just overall talent and like ceiling, I think it is jokicch.

899
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:38,920
Speaker 2: Like I think jokicch is a better basketball player than

900
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 2: Draymond Green, but Draymond Green, of course has more accoleades

901
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 2: because he's got the championships and stuff like that. I

902
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,319
Speaker 2: think the interesting one if he didn't get injured and

903
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,479
Speaker 2: he had like that three year window window that where

904
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 2: he was like on fire. Gilbert Arenas looks like, you know,

905
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 2: he was gonna be at a time it looked like

906
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:55,799
Speaker 2: he was gonna be like a guy that was gonna

907
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 2: be like an eight or nine time All NBA player.

908
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 2: Obviously came up short there. Paul Millsap is not like

909
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 2: on the level of some of these guys. Maybe he's

910
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 2: closer to like a Marcus All a little bit, and

911
00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 2: he's probably even still below him. But a second round

912
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,839
Speaker 2: pick has had a long, long career and has made

913
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,880
Speaker 2: All Star teams and has put up points and has

914
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 2: you know, again, played really well for a long time

915
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 2: being a second round pick. But yeah, Genobili one, yolkicch two.

916
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,480
Speaker 2: But man, I definitely think it's possible that you could

917
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 2: go down as the best second rounder of all time,

918
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 2: especially with an MVP or two, a championship or two,

919
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 2: like as the best player like, because that's the thing.

920
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 2: Janobili was never He's Draymond Green like in the sense

921
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,320
Speaker 2: he was on great teams and he was unbelievable player,

922
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 2: but probably never probably never the best player on that squad.

923
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 2: I mean he's playing with Tim Duncan, for crying out loud.

924
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,000
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, exactly. We never got to see man who

925
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: have his own team, which if he did, you're you're

926
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,360
Speaker 1: talking about more al NBA and more All Star appearances.

927
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: The guy was making All Star games coming off the bench.

928
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 1: Very crazy.

929
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 2: That's well, all right, great question there from Dirk. One

930
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 2: more here Trey Again, like I said, we got so

931
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 2: many good ones, we can't get to all of them.

932
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 2: On Today's Beach Stem podcast. But let's get this one

933
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 2: in here. Hey, I know Dunkers.

934
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:02,760
Speaker 1: I was out on a run the other day listening

935
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,359
Speaker 1: to a No Dunk's classic and I saw this sign

936
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 1: that said Lemon Sweet Rules are back. As I read that,

937
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,839
Speaker 1: I heard Tk's voice yell it, which I just did.

938
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 1: So here's my question. What podcasts are shows? Have you

939
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,799
Speaker 1: listened to enough times that you hear specific voices from

940
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 1: those shows say things in your head? And what other

941
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 1: foods do you wish? We're back? Thanks you for the

942
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 1: awesome podcast. I started watching the Starters in eighth grade.

943
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:32,359
Speaker 1: I have been a loyal listener and fan ever since.

944
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,319
Speaker 1: Skeets actually inspired me to start running two. Hey turn up,

945
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,480
Speaker 1: love you guys. Awesome. That's from Caitlin JD. What you

946
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: got for us?

947
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:45,520
Speaker 3: Yeah? So for I guess three or four weeks about

948
00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 3: a month ago, Lincoln would walk around constantly saying this phrase.

949
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 1: Here it is, do all look luck?

950
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 5: I note what a jpeg is? I just womp a

951
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,239
Speaker 5: picture of a goddang hot dog.

952
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 2: Oh good, too good?

953
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 3: I know. And I didn't even know that he had

954
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 3: watched King of the Hill, and I don't think that

955
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 3: he had watched King of the Hill. It was just

956
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:17,120
Speaker 3: he came across that meme and he was just always

957
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 3: saying it, always making me laugh. And you know, if

958
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,719
Speaker 3: you watch the show, you know that I used I

959
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 3: used that as a cold open a couple of weeks

960
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:29,440
Speaker 3: ago and it was just so random. And but you know,

961
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 3: it's been nothing but King of the Hill around here

962
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:36,040
Speaker 3: the last month and a half, just because we started

963
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 3: watching it because of that. And it holds up, by

964
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,759
Speaker 3: the way, it's like a twenty year old over twenty

965
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,680
Speaker 3: year old show and it still holds up. But so yeah,

966
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,719
Speaker 3: he just walks around going Bobby, you know, I can't

967
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 3: do it.

968
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:47,919
Speaker 1: Like he's so good.

969
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 2: Honestly, play that clip again because I that is spot on,

970
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 2: especially if you're just listening to the podcast. Tell me

971
00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 2: this is not a hank here?

972
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,759
Speaker 5: Do all look like one? What the jpeg is? I

973
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,799
Speaker 5: just fought a picture of a god dang honk dog.

974
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:08,319
Speaker 1: That's so good?

975
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:10,160
Speaker 2: Is good?

976
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 4: Yeah?

977
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:11,880
Speaker 2: Okay?

978
00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,920
Speaker 3: So anyways, aund a lot a King of the Hill

979
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 3: and it's great. I can't kill one of the all

980
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 3: time classic characters. It's the it's the what you know,

981
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 3: like really emphasizing that age and the second part of

982
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,600
Speaker 3: the question or the first part of seconds the food,

983
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:32,759
Speaker 3: second part about the food. So not me, but my

984
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 3: wife Rachel. Every time we talk about getting ice cream.

985
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,719
Speaker 3: Back in two thousand and three, when X two came out,

986
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 3: that's the sequel to X men, Baskin Robbins had they

987
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,080
Speaker 3: released this ice cream. What is it called. It's called

988
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 3: X Mint, right, so it's like Oreo mint, like with

989
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,879
Speaker 3: a blue mint in it. So every time she's like,

990
00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 3: we got to find this X ment Like it's lasted

991
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,960
Speaker 3: for literally three months in two thousand and three and

992
00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 3: it's and it's it's it's gone. We've never been able

993
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 3: to find it. But it's basically Oreo mint. But I

994
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:12,000
Speaker 3: found this picture of it and it looks fucking disgusting.

995
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 3: Look at it.

996
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 2: It looks so gross.

997
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:16,759
Speaker 1: A black and blue ice cream.

998
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:19,359
Speaker 3: I don't know, Yeah, but oh my god, it's this

999
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:22,800
Speaker 3: is her literally her favorite ice cream of all time. Wow,

1000
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,160
Speaker 3: And we wish it would come back, I guess, but

1001
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,240
Speaker 3: man it it definitely tastes a lot better than.

1002
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:30,399
Speaker 1: Ah.

1003
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 2: Wow, god, I am. I am glad you put your

1004
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,360
Speaker 2: hand up, Judie to answer this question, because you just

1005
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,279
Speaker 2: knocked it out of the park with both parts of

1006
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 2: the trade. Do you have anything either of those two

1007
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:41,319
Speaker 2: questions from Caitlin.

1008
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: Jason Concepsio and I've listened to a ton of his

1009
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,880
Speaker 1: podcast most recent Wise, when I was doing my Marvel rewatch,

1010
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 1: I was listening to Binge mode Ye at the same time,

1011
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,359
Speaker 1: So you know, there were times when things would line

1012
00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:55,919
Speaker 1: up perfectly for me. A couple of them were during

1013
00:47:55,960 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 1: the Doctor Strange episode the villain is MoMu and like

1014
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 1: Benedict Cumberbatch walks in and he's like dormmu. So I

1015
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 1: was just saying dor momo because Jason just kept doing

1016
00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 1: this bit for the longest time. Another one that I

1017
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 1: picked up that I really liked from him was his

1018
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 1: smart Hulk from Endgame. You know when Bruce Banner has

1019
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 1: kind of mastered being in between Banner and the Hulk,

1020
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,920
Speaker 1: and he's wearing glasses and it feels like.

1021
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 2: He just keeps saying biker in suliv.

1022
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. I thought Jason nailed that one as well.

1023
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: So those are two that stuck out to me from

1024
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 1: the past six months or so.

1025
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:43,360
Speaker 2: Dor MoMu, I'm hearing a bargain mine with the like

1026
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:47,240
Speaker 2: the podcast question. Part of this is actually by Osmosis.

1027
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 2: It's not even a podcast that I listened to, but

1028
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:51,280
Speaker 2: I sort of half listened to because Nora at times

1029
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:53,719
Speaker 2: is playing it throughout the house if she's cooking, and

1030
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 2: it's my favorite Murder, which is obviously a hugely popular podcast.

1031
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 2: She's been listening to it forever. A murder, you know.

1032
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,960
Speaker 2: And Georgia hard Stark. If I think I have the

1033
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:06,920
Speaker 2: right woman, that there's two of them that that hosts it,

1034
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:12,040
Speaker 2: that always says, or always ends every episode asking her cat, Elvis,

1035
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 2: do you want a cookie? She always asks her cat.

1036
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,880
Speaker 2: I believe the cat is the cat has passed away now,

1037
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,880
Speaker 2: but I think they continue to play the clip in

1038
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,839
Speaker 2: the cat's honor, in Elvis's honor. But I'm always like,

1039
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,799
Speaker 2: anytime there's a cookie, I'm saying, Elvis, do you want

1040
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,400
Speaker 2: a cook? To to like whoever's around, even to myself

1041
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 2: if I'm just helping myself to a cookie, I make

1042
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,239
Speaker 2: sure to say it. So that's a that's a strange one.

1043
00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 2: And it's again it's like I've never actually downloaded the

1044
00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:39,880
Speaker 2: podcast and listened to it myself. It's just from playing

1045
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,680
Speaker 2: in the house for the last like whatever ten years

1046
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:43,399
Speaker 2: or whatever long they've been going five years or something

1047
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:46,120
Speaker 2: like that, So that's mine. As for a food that

1048
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:49,760
Speaker 2: I wish was back, well, it's more of a drink.

1049
00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:54,359
Speaker 2: I've told you guys before. Canada dry raspberry ginger ale

1050
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,760
Speaker 2: a seasonal beverage that should be year round. I'm convinced

1051
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:02,000
Speaker 2: they stopped making it. I'm sure it's back out there somewhere.

1052
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,359
Speaker 2: Maybe it's on Amazon. I don't know, but I would

1053
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 2: just remember a time growing up in Canada where it

1054
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,640
Speaker 2: would start showing up in the stores around the holidays,

1055
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 2: of course, and it was a great, great ginger ale

1056
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,759
Speaker 2: with that raspberry flavor, and then they really leaned into

1057
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:18,440
Speaker 2: the cranberry and I guess that was selling more than

1058
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 2: the raspberry because I think they just got rid of

1059
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,799
Speaker 2: it in Canada. So yeah, if you find Canada dry

1060
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,479
Speaker 2: raspberry ginger all buy yourself want and thank me later.

1061
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 2: It's I don't even know if they still make it,

1062
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 2: but I wish it was back in my life. I'll

1063
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 2: tell you that it's delicious. Oh I love it. Ginger

1064
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:34,680
Speaker 2: Ale man underrated.

1065
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 1: Overall, ginger ale is good and most of the flavors

1066
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:40,239
Speaker 1: I feel like that they come out as variants are

1067
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:44,560
Speaker 1: usually pretty good. Yes, you know, I guess unfortunately, Cranberry

1068
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,279
Speaker 1: has won the berry battle over raspberry. I think so

1069
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:50,280
Speaker 1: certainly more often put into you know, like a random

1070
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 1: drink and whatever, maybe a cran sprite or a cran

1071
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:56,399
Speaker 1: seven up or whatever it is. Cran You never eat

1072
00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 1: a cranberry by itself, very rare, but you often see

1073
00:50:59,239 --> 00:50:59,839
Speaker 1: it in a drink.

1074
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:05,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, big cran taking down a little raspberry. So

1075
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 2: let's uh, let's hear your answers to Caitlin's great questions.

1076
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:13,920
Speaker 2: There two questions in one email. Let us know in

1077
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:17,399
Speaker 2: the YouTube comments below. We got tweeted the night still

1078
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 2: but first JAD tweet of the.

1079
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:24,520
Speaker 4: Night tweet out the night.

1080
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 2: Wow.

1081
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:33,799
Speaker 3: Well, Tassie came through for me this morning. He just randomly,

1082
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 3: he knew, he instinctively knew that I wasn't going to

1083
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,200
Speaker 3: be ready for this, so he sent me this tweet,

1084
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:40,320
Speaker 3: So shout out to Tassy.

1085
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:41,759
Speaker 2: And it's from.

1086
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:48,160
Speaker 3: It's from Yuki Nagasato, who plays for Racing Louisville FC

1087
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:52,920
Speaker 3: in the NWSL, and it reads, I learned today what

1088
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 3: is dad ass? A friend said I'm gonna bring that

1089
00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 3: ass when another one said I'll bring red one and

1090
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,440
Speaker 3: dat ass as well, and I was like, okay, is

1091
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:06,720
Speaker 3: that drink or is it food? I found this picture

1092
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:10,480
Speaker 3: which is a picture of an ass that says dat ass.

1093
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:14,879
Speaker 3: And I found this picture and figured it out later.

1094
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 3: They will bring their butt shrug emojis. Of course they will, right,

1095
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:22,120
Speaker 3: of course they will bring their butts. And you know,

1096
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:27,080
Speaker 3: as a as an immigrant to this country who speaks

1097
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:32,120
Speaker 3: English fluently, I mean it's it's a lot already, but

1098
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:35,320
Speaker 3: to come to this country and not speak the language

1099
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:38,399
Speaker 3: in all seriousness, it's just shout out to everybody who

1100
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:42,719
Speaker 3: had to learn English and navigate how complicated it is

1101
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,640
Speaker 3: with this slang and stuff. It's just, uh, you know,

1102
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 3: but a great tweet, and uh, you know I love

1103
00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:50,280
Speaker 3: that picture.

1104
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, the picture really takes it to the next level. Yeah,

1105
00:52:56,120 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 2: it's like, uh, I mean, you alls don't need the

1106
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 2: picture for the tween, but now it's a nice chef's

1107
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,920
Speaker 2: kiss there on this tweet. Absolutely all right ass. So

1108
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:09,880
Speaker 2: I mean I don't even know if I knew this.

1109
00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:13,960
Speaker 2: They're just saying I'm coming, like I'm bringing that ass

1110
00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:15,360
Speaker 2: as I'm bringing myself.

1111
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:17,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's just it. I kind of don't

1112
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 3: get it either, unless it's like saying I'm going to

1113
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:26,359
Speaker 3: bring my girlfriend or my boyfriend or my significant other,

1114
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:29,200
Speaker 3: you know, like or that ass over there. I mean,

1115
00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 3: it's hard, it's hard to understand. I mean, but she's

1116
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:34,359
Speaker 3: she's like, well, of course you're going to bring your ass,

1117
00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:38,040
Speaker 3: like you're coming past to your body, so you know,

1118
00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:39,719
Speaker 3: of course you're bringing it.

1119
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 2: It's hold top of let me just fire up a

1120
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:45,720
Speaker 2: fifteen minute lesson on babble. I think I have a

1121
00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 2: bad ass episode that I was saving for later. Let's

1122
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:52,520
Speaker 2: get into it. Okay, Wow, that's a weird tweet of

1123
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:56,160
Speaker 2: the night. Weird. But if task was helping you out,

1124
00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:58,360
Speaker 2: then it all makes a little bit more sense.

1125
00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:00,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, alright.

1126
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 2: Pick the results from last night Celtics Blazers Boston was

1127
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,239
Speaker 2: favored by one and a half. They got the win,

1128
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,040
Speaker 2: but they did not win in the pickum. That is

1129
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:13,480
Speaker 2: a tough l for Trey Kirby by far the worst

1130
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 2: type of loss, right, Trey, And when it comes to

1131
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:17,240
Speaker 2: pick them, like, oh man, you had the right team,

1132
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 2: but it's such a tiny line that the Blazers actually cover.

1133
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:24,719
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, what are you gonna do,

1134
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,719
Speaker 1: especially when you got Marcus smart going to the free

1135
00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:29,399
Speaker 1: throw line. Yeah, he's got two free throws to make, right,

1136
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:33,160
Speaker 1: he missed the first one, not on purpose, and then

1137
00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:35,600
Speaker 1: once you see Brad Stevens yelling at him, miss this

1138
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:38,080
Speaker 1: next one, miss this next one, You're like, okay, mark

1139
00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:40,200
Speaker 1: that down as an l sorry.

1140
00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:42,440
Speaker 2: Well yeah, and then even sometimes we've seen people try

1141
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,360
Speaker 2: miss free throws and they hit them, so it's like

1142
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 2: still in play for you to get the victory. But anyway,

1143
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:48,880
Speaker 2: Trey's doing okay, he's six and three here in the

1144
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:52,399
Speaker 2: month of April. Task got it right. I got it right,

1145
00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:54,680
Speaker 2: and so did Lee by way of jd All taking

1146
00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 2: the Blazers to cover and like we pulled it out

1147
00:54:56,640 --> 00:54:58,680
Speaker 2: of our asses there, we pulled it out of our

1148
00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:01,640
Speaker 2: dead asses there on that. So Tasta six and three,

1149
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:03,439
Speaker 2: Lee five and four. I'm three and six. I'm still

1150
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 2: quite behind. Tonight's game, Mavericks at Grizzlies Dallas is favored

1151
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:11,959
Speaker 2: by two and a half between these two teams, sort

1152
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:15,760
Speaker 2: of near the lower end of the Western Conference playoff races.

1153
00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:18,160
Speaker 2: Right now, let's find out who Tass has first. Judy,

1154
00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 2: let's go to him.

1155
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 4: Okay, Oh, I'm looking forward to this one because MAVs

1156
00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:26,320
Speaker 4: Grizzlies is a potential play in tournament. Preview, Luka Dancic

1157
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,839
Speaker 4: said he doesn't get the play in tournament. Then Mark

1158
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,239
Speaker 4: Cuban backed up his Superstars words and said it's a

1159
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,440
Speaker 4: dumb idea. Well, if they don't want to be in

1160
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:36,280
Speaker 4: the play in tournament, they're gonna have to win some games.

1161
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 4: I think they'll back up their words in this one.

1162
00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:40,520
Speaker 2: Give me the MAVs, all right. I like his reasoning.

1163
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 2: He takes Dallas to win by three or more. Trey,

1164
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:43,920
Speaker 2: where are you going with this one?

1165
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:46,799
Speaker 1: Yeah? I'm with Tassy on this one. Mavericks have been

1166
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 1: playing pretty well. I'm guessing that Porzingis is going to

1167
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:52,000
Speaker 1: be back in the lineup. I would say this is

1168
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,840
Speaker 1: a potential big beef game for Yons Valen Tunis he

1169
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:57,080
Speaker 1: could easily go for a twenty board kind of nights.

1170
00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,680
Speaker 1: But you know, with all the noise that the MAVs

1171
00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:02,960
Speaker 1: have been making about how they feel about the playing tournament,

1172
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:04,359
Speaker 1: winning the game is a good way to get out

1173
00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 1: of it.

1174
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:07,920
Speaker 2: Give me Dallas, all right. I will go with the Grizzlies.

1175
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 2: You know I've talked them up here a lot on

1176
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:12,680
Speaker 2: the show. I love this second half run. I think

1177
00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 2: you're right. Valentunis versus Porzingis is an interesting matchup. I mean,

1178
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:20,000
Speaker 2: they can both give each other problems. So who's who

1179
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:22,480
Speaker 2: comes out victorious in that battle? If KP is playing,

1180
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:24,600
Speaker 2: can like the three ball or at least stretching the

1181
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,040
Speaker 2: floor and bringing Valentunas out sort of take him off

1182
00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:29,359
Speaker 2: the floor. Or can JV like just body him up

1183
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,239
Speaker 2: and throw him around, get him and foul trouble and

1184
00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:34,080
Speaker 2: maybe that helps the Grizzlies. I'll go with Memphis plus

1185
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:35,720
Speaker 2: two and a half. I don't know is John Morant.

1186
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 2: I assume he's playing in this game, right, Yeah, because

1187
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:42,239
Speaker 2: he was playing his last team going down those roops,

1188
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 2: he should be good to go. So Memphis plus two

1189
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 2: and a half? JD, who do you like?

1190
00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:49,880
Speaker 3: Yeah? For Lee, I am going to not pick Memphis

1191
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:54,120
Speaker 3: because they let me down, let us down. So I'm

1192
00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:58,879
Speaker 3: gonna go with the Grizzlies for good old Lilyquaman.

1193
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:02,840
Speaker 2: Hold on, you just said you're you're not you're not

1194
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:05,359
Speaker 2: picking You said you're not picking Memphis, but you're going

1195
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:05,680
Speaker 2: with the Grid.

1196
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:07,600
Speaker 3: Did I say that I meant, I meant, I meant

1197
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 3: to say Mavericks I'm not picking the Mavericks. I'm picking

1198
00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 3: the Grizzlies.

1199
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:19,360
Speaker 2: Okay, one more time on Aquaman Aquaman Incredible, Org JD.

1200
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:22,640
Speaker 2: You're killing it today, all right, So once again, Lee,

1201
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,240
Speaker 2: Slash JD and I have the Grizzlies plus two and

1202
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,680
Speaker 2: a half and taskin Trey. Who are the leaders right now?

1203
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:29,240
Speaker 2: In April? They got Dallas win by three or more.

1204
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,720
