So I have funny thing that Demonse 31 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: doesn't know. Last night, during halftime of the Knicks game, 32 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 2: It's like it's halftime. I've been on a bit of 33 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 2: a fortnight kick lately. I'm like, I think I have 34 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: just enough time during halftime to get a quick four 35 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 2: night game in in my office and I'll know when 36 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 2: the game's angs. I'll put it on the upper TVs 37 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 2: and like one minute after logging on, I get a 38 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 2: little alert, says DeMont. Your friend demands a bird is 39 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 2: I'm like, I wonder if he did the same thing. 40 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 2: I'm like, I wonder if he was like, all right, halftime, 41 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 2: let me get a little call of duty. I mean, 42 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: you're not a Fortnite guy. You're more of a call 43 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 2: of duty guy. But I even thought. 44 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 3: Of texting you. 45 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 4: Past halftime the. 46 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 2: Yeah and well right, Well, the thing is Fortnite can 47 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 2: be real fast, you can get the you can get 48 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 2: killed quickly. 49 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 3: Whatever. Good to see you. We have a ton to do. 50 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 2: We have a new three time MVP h Jalen Brunson. 51 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 2: The legend just grows. We'll get into all of that. Uh, 52 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: but first, here's what missed the cut. What missed the 53 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 2: cut for today's show is Charles Barkley says New York 54 00:02:55,639 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 2: City is overrated. However, he does love the as he 55 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 2: calls it, street meat. I'll tell you when I first 56 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: before I moved to New York. When I first I 57 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 2: did an internship for ESPN Radio in New York City 58 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: one summer of college, and coming from the Midwest, the 59 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 2: fact that I could just walk down the street and 60 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 2: get a hot dog or a kebab or a kinish 61 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 2: was one of my absolute favorite things about the city. 62 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 2: So I get white people who don't live here love 63 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 2: the food carts and just the hot you know, fresh 64 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: is maybe not the right word, but any food that 65 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 2: you are eating seconds after it was prepared is delicious. 66 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: That's like the entire key to Benni, Hannah and Habachi. Like, 67 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 2: I don't know that that is as great as it 68 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: tastes in any setting other than moments after it's on 69 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 2: the grill you're eating it. Travis Kelsey's gonna appear in 70 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: a new horror series, and there's officially an Office spin 71 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 2: off in the work. I think I'd love the Office, 72 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: but I've never seen a single episode of the English 73 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 2: version or the American version. All right, demanse, let's get 74 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 2: to the MVP news. Then we'll get to the playoff 75 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 2: MVP Jalen Brunson. 76 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 4: So, yeah, Jokers won his third MVP in four years. 77 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 4: So you started off off Jokich's bandwagon, then you jumped on, 78 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 4: and then it seems like you've jumped off after his 79 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 4: two bad games to Minnesota. And you said that you 80 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 4: would have voted Luca this year. So does that mean 81 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 4: in your eyes that Joker should be a zero time MVP. 82 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 2: No. 83 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 3: So here's the So. 84 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 2: If you look at how I say I would have 85 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 2: voted each of the last four years, it would appear 86 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 2: that I would have never voted for Joker, because what 87 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 2: I have said on TV is that CP three was 88 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 2: my MVP three years ago, Luca was my MVP two 89 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 2: years ago, Embiid was my MVP last year, and Luca 90 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 2: was my MVP this year. But had any of those 91 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 2: previous MVPs gone the way I thought they should have, 92 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: then my future MVP feelings would have changed. And I 93 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 2: know to some people that seems against the rules, like no, 94 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: it's this season in a vacuum only, but that is 95 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 2: simply not how it's ever been done. So if I, 96 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 2: if I were able to change history, so to speak, 97 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: the last four MVPs would have been Chris Paul, Luca, Joker, Joker. 98 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 2: So I one of the reasons that I did not think, 99 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 2: and Embiid would be the one, you know, without a 100 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: chair unfortunately. But the the reason that I did not 101 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 2: think Joker should have been the MVP last year was 102 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,119 Speaker 2: because of the president about guy winning three in a row, 103 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 2: particularly who had at that point in time had done nothing. However, 104 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 2: if coming off last year where he was the dominant 105 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 2: postseason force he was, and he had only had one 106 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 2: MVP to his name up to that point and Luca 107 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 2: already had one, then this year, I probably would have 108 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 2: vote voting voting voted for Joker. But here is what 109 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 2: I'm going to say about Joker and winning his third MVP. Okay, 110 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 2: the guys with two Giannis, Steph Duncan, Nash, Malone, Pettitt, 111 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,239 Speaker 2: He's now ascended past them. He is in this group. 112 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 2: Here are the guys with three, Him, Magic, Larry, and Moses. 113 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 2: The guys with four Wilton Lebron, the guys with five 114 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 2: Russell and Michael, and the only guy with six. So 115 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 2: I'm okay with that. He right now is a very 116 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 2: similar career of Moses, by the way, three MVPs Moses 117 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 2: went to two finals, one to one championship. But we 118 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 2: must also then reevaluate as we get new information. We 119 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,559 Speaker 2: are going to talk about Jalen Brunson in a moment. 120 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 2: If your feelings on Jalen Brunson are the same today 121 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 2: as they were a month ago, well then why even 122 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 2: have the games? If what he has done in this 123 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: postseason does not allow you to reevaluate and upgrade how 124 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: great of a player you think he is, then what 125 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 2: are the point of the games that works in both directions? 126 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 2: And if all of a sudden, when Joker for the 127 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 2: first time in a few years, is playing a fifty 128 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 2: plus win, well built, healthy team in the playoffs, is 129 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 2: struggling mightily. If that doesn't then allow you to reevaluate 130 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 2: certain assumptions we had about where he's ending in the pantheon, 131 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 2: then why have the games? Because going into this postseason, 132 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 2: the question with Joker was fairly and I was having it. 133 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: Is he going to run down Shack? Is he going 134 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 2: to end this postseason already ahead of a team? Could 135 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 2: he catch Bird though in the all time historical pantheon? 136 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 2: That's what and by the way, still is available to 137 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 2: him if they turn this around and win the championship. 138 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 2: But the flip side to that coin is if they 139 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 2: get rolled in round two by a twenty two year 140 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 2: old and by a guy who, previous to this moment 141 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 2: has always been considered a bad postseason performer, then we 142 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 2: must ask the question, did we anoint him ahead of 143 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 2: Yannis prematurely. 144 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,079 Speaker 4: Put the resume side? 145 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 3: Well? 146 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 2: Right, Well, then then we recalibrate again, right, exactly right. 147 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,719 Speaker 2: But we had the conversation around Jokic was head and 148 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 2: shoulders clear best player in the league. That is coming 149 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 2: into some question. I think because of what Ant and 150 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 2: Shay are doing to at least in question and the 151 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: guy of his era hands down. If you're Yannis, you're like, well, 152 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 2: if they get rolled this round, can we have the discussion? 153 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 2: He has three MVPs, now I have two. I have 154 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 2: a defensive. 155 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 3: Player of the Year award. 156 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 2: Though he has one legendary postseason run, I have one 157 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 2: legendary postseason run that arguably was not only as good, 158 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: but maybe better. Why are we sure he is the 159 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 2: alpha of this mini era? 160 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 3: That thing? 161 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 2: Those questions come into play, just like for Yannis when 162 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 2: he won his title with a fifty piece in Game 163 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 2: six and at that point had two MVPs, a into 164 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 2: Player of the Year and look totally unstoppable. The conversations 165 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 2: we were having were could this guy end up being 166 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 2: one of the five greatest players of all time? 167 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 3: But since then. 168 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 2: He hasn't been out of Round two and he has 169 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 2: back to back Round one exits, so you recalibrate, that 170 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 2: is why. And this is the Jokic folks that have 171 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: gotten mad at me in the past when they're like, 172 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 2: you know, killed me for saying I needed to see 173 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 2: him do it on a postseason run and acted like 174 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 2: that was an unfair standard. It's the standard. It's always 175 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 2: been the standard. And now again, if we are just 176 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 2: being historically fair, we then also let's just assume, not 177 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 2: even assume, let's just say for the sake of argument, 178 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: that minnesot Of sweeps them. Okay, we now have some 179 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:12,959 Speaker 2: really uncomfortable lists. You would have fewest wins in a 180 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: playoffs in a season you won MVP. Here would be 181 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 2: the full list of guys who have four or less. 182 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 2: Michael Jordan once, Magic Johnson once, Tim Duncan wants, Dirk once, 183 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook once, Nikola Jokic three times. He already is 184 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 2: tied with Westbrook for fewest playoff wins in the season 185 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 2: you won an MVP with one. 186 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 3: Okay, I have another question. 187 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 2: The list of last forty years guy who got swept 188 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 2: out of the playoffs in the season he won league MVP. 189 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 2: That list right now is two names long, Magic Johnson, 190 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 2: and there's a semi asterisk on that little by his 191 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 2: name there. Because he got swept in the finals when 192 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 2: he got hurt five minutes into Game three and did 193 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 2: not play the rest of that game or the next game, 194 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 2: it still counts as him getting swept they were going 195 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 2: for a third straight title and the Pistons beat him, 196 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 2: swept him in the finals, but he got hurt. The 197 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 2: only other name on that list already is Joker's a 198 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 2: couple games away from that happening again, Does that mean 199 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 2: he's not neck and neck with Moses Malone for let 200 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 2: me do the greatest centers of all time? What's that list? 201 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 3: So for the am I leaving anyone out? Yeah? Uh? 202 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 2: Neck and neck with Moses Malone for the sixth greatest 203 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 2: center ever. No, he's already established that. But does that 204 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 2: set him back on cracking that top five greatest sinners ever? 205 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 2: Kareem Russell Wilt a team shack. Yeah, of course it does. 206 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 4: That. 207 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 2: These games matter in every direction. They turn Anthony Edwards 208 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 2: into maybe the face of the league. They make Jalen 209 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 2: Brunson a folk hero in a legend right. They make 210 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 2: you recalibrate what the hell you're going to do if 211 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 2: you're the Phoenix Suns. That's what this postseason is and 212 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 2: for Joker and I'm listen, i am not the. 213 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 3: A big thing that has. 214 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 2: Gone around this week on the internet is Wow, the 215 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 2: Nuggets with Joker have never beaten a. 216 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 3: Fifty win team in the playoffs. 217 00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 2: I have not proliferated that because I actually don't am 218 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 2: not that interested in that because I watched them last 219 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 2: year and I think they were going to Like, he 220 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:13,239 Speaker 2: shouldn't be penalized for the fact that Miami clipped Boston 221 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 2: in the conference finals and he didn't get an opportunity 222 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 2: to beat Boston because they would have rolled Boston. That 223 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 2: Nuggets team last year was a well oiled, healthy juggernaut, 224 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 2: and I give him full credit for that. So I'm 225 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 2: not I am not at all being like, oh, last 226 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 2: year's championship, what is it? 227 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 3: That's not how I feel. 228 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 2: I am saying it is not unfair to hold the 229 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 2: guy who just became one, two, three four, the ninth 230 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 2: player in league history to be named the MVP of 231 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 2: the league three or more times, to a high standard. 232 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 2: And that's what I'm going to hold him to. The 233 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 2: standard is the standard. It was not set by me. 234 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 2: It was set by history. And I just spent a 235 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 2: week hearing about how Lebron James missed box outs or 236 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 2: why Darvin Ham doesn't have a job. Because the standards 237 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 2: the standard for Lebron even in year twenty one, age 238 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 2: thirty nine, be better, find a way. Okay, peak of 239 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 2: your powers. Third MVP in four years. These kids in 240 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 2: Minnesota are making you look slow, are making you look 241 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: like you. 242 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 3: Don't have answers. 243 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 2: And so does that change how I feel about him historically? 244 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 3: No? 245 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 2: Does it pump the brakes on where he was being 246 00:16:54,440 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 2: elevated to historically? Of course it has to. And so 247 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 2: That's where I'm at on this. I don't think Demonse. 248 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 2: I know you think I'm a bit of a hater 249 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 2: on this. That's okay, tell like you just heard me 250 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 2: go for fifteen minutes, your thoughts on anything or everything 251 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 2: I just said. 252 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 4: I wonder how Daniel feels about this. 253 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 2: But Daniel, can I tell you real quick before you go, 254 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: Here's how I think Daniel feels. I don't think Daniel 255 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:28,919 Speaker 2: actually right now, maybe I'm wrong, has the luxury of 256 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 2: caring about the Jokis historic debate. He's right now in 257 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 2: the midst of a war for what he thought was 258 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 2: going to be a dynastic run he through hell or 259 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 2: high water. Daniel just needs the Nuggets to find a 260 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 2: way to win tomorrow night, and they win tomorrow night, 261 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 2: and he is all the way back. Like but right 262 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:56,120 Speaker 2: now he has massive unease about where we're at because 263 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 2: here and sorry, I asked your thoughts, and now I'm 264 00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 2: gonna talk again. 265 00:17:58,840 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 3: But then I'll get your talk. 266 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 2: Because here's the other uncomfortable thing about if not if 267 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 2: they lose this series, but if Denver gets swept. If 268 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 2: Denver gets swept, do they make a knee jerk change. 269 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 2: Do they try to retool something or do they just 270 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 2: say next year will be different. I don't know what 271 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 2: the right answer would be, But there's a world that exists. 272 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 2: This is what is so again interesting about the playoffs. 273 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 2: The Lakers, I think for a few days were like, well, 274 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,360 Speaker 2: I know we lost in five, but those games were close. 275 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,199 Speaker 2: Two came down to buzzer beaters, and the Nuggets are 276 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 2: gonna win the whole thing, so you know, we might 277 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 2: end up beating Maybe we were the third best team 278 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 2: in the league, right, But then now the Nuggets are 279 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 2: getting annihilated. 280 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a. 281 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 3: World that exists where the Timberwolves sweep the Nuggets. The 282 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 3: Timberwolves then lose to the winner of OKC Dallas, and 283 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 3: that team then loses to Boston. And if you're Denver, 284 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 3: you're like, wait a minute, the team that beat US 285 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 3: got beat by a team that then got beat How 286 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 3: close were we that? Right? 287 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 2: Like, it's now if the Timberwolves beat the Nuggets in 288 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 2: six and then go on to win the championship, you 289 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 2: feel differently. That's where all of this stuff matters. 290 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 4: But god, that's how that's how I feel about it. 291 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 4: I think that I think the Timberwolves are gonna take 292 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 4: it pretty far. And I hate saying that because they're 293 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 4: gonna end up dealing with the Celtics. But I think 294 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 4: when you look back at it, it'll just be a 295 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 4: story of like this, this dominant Timberwolves team and not 296 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 4: the Denver choke job. I think that the Timberwolves are 297 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 4: just legit, and I think that if they keep that 298 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 4: team together even next year, I think you'll still see 299 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 4: that it's a very real team. I mean, they've been 300 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 4: doing everything basically without Rigo Bert. I get it was 301 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 4: only it's only been two games, but but yeah, dude, 302 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 4: I think that I think the team's just scary. It's 303 00:19:58,720 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 4: a different beast. 304 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 2: Well, so here is So here's another thing I love 305 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 2: about the NBA playoffs. No, I'm not saying anything you're 306 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 2: saying is wrong, but the NBA playoffs the way it 307 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,719 Speaker 2: works is when your team, or when a team wins 308 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:18,159 Speaker 2: a single game, let alone what Minnesota's done where they 309 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 2: haven't lost yet, you feel after the game like, I 310 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 2: don't think they're ever gonna lose again. I not just 311 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 2: this year but next year either, like why could. 312 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 3: Anyone beat them? 313 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 2: And then right and then whenever your team loses a game, 314 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 2: you're like, I mean this team is just broken, like 315 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 2: I don't know what and so it's a it, but 316 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 2: just the. 317 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 4: Fashion in which they've done this, I mean it's it's 318 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 4: two games and the second game was worse than the 319 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 4: first one. They're in Denver, they haven't lost yet. 320 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 3: Out go bear no correct all that's all. 321 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 2: That's very fair, all right? Do you want to well, 322 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 2: just real quick, do you think anything said about the 323 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,719 Speaker 2: Jokic is there anything else you want to talk about it? 324 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 2: That was unfair for you to move on to Jalen Brunson. 325 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 3: I do. 326 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 4: I do think you're slightly unfair to Jokic. I mean, 327 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 4: especially if you was given the fact that the guys 328 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 4: that you said should have gotten MVP over him the 329 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 4: years that they did, Jokic went further than them. If 330 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:25,679 Speaker 4: I'm not mistaken, no, you are mistaken. No, you are mistaken, Okay, 331 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 4: which he wanted. 332 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 2: The first year he won MVP, I was the only 333 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 2: person in America who said it should have been Chris Paul. 334 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 2: They then played Chris Paul in round two and Chris 335 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 2: Paul swept them in the playoffs. Okay, that was the 336 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 2: first year. The second year that he won MVP, and 337 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 2: I said Luca should have won it. Luca went to 338 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 2: the conference finals and Joker lost five in round one. Now, 339 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 2: in fairness, the team that beat Joker was Golden State, 340 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,919 Speaker 2: the same team that beat Luca last year. So no, 341 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 2: so that is not accurate about those years. Like I 342 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 2: just the it was now you vote before the playoffs. 343 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 2: I understand all of that, but go ahead. 344 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, I guess that's fair. Well, I think 345 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 4: we'll see. We'll see how it pans out with the 346 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 4: Timberwolves and and and Lay in the playoffs. 347 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I mean, I I think that right 348 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 2: now they look unbelievable. And right now you also ask 349 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 2: yourself how different would last season's postseason have been had 350 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 2: Minnesota not been without Jaden McDaniels Because he punched a 351 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 2: wall and broke his hand right before the playoffs and 352 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 2: without nas reed because he was hurt. Like Jade McDaniels 353 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 2: and nos reed right now, critical. 354 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 4: Piece, huge players, huge pieces for them now. 355 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 2: Also, Anthony Edwards is better than he was. There's a 356 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 2: lot of other factors, but yeah, okay, all right, let's 357 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 2: move on to Jalen Brunson. 358 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 4: Uh. Yes, So the Knicks came back, came back from 359 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 4: a down ten despite Brunson and Ogianinovi getting hurt. Jen 360 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 4: Jalen hurt, not Jalen hurts. Jalen brunts was able to 361 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 4: come back later, but he still doesn't look one hundred percent. 362 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 4: But that foot injury, it seems like the workload would 363 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 4: be getting to them at this point. Have you ever 364 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 4: seen have you ever seen a team with as much heart? 365 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 3: Sorry, no, you're fine. 366 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,199 Speaker 2: Uh, I mean it's almost impossible not to root for 367 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 2: the Knicks in my opinion if you're neutral. 368 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 3: Just the way they play. 369 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 2: The Villanova piece is amazing. Brunson at his size, doing 370 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 2: what he's doing, which is why now allow me to 371 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 2: complain for a moment. I've never been more infuriated watching 372 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 2: a broadcast than I was watching last night. 373 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 3: Okay, I get that. 374 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 2: Reggie Miller came back to New York and we have 375 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 2: to still just make a big deal about I'm sorry, 376 00:23:54,560 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 2: but one of the most historically overrated players of any era, 377 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 2: like Reggie, was a very good player who had some 378 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 2: great moments. He also Latrell Spreewell was there. He and 379 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 2: Spree played the same position in the same era. Spree 380 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 2: actually made a first or second team All NBA. Reggie 381 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 2: his whole career never did. And we're treating Reggie Miller 382 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 2: like this golden God. Fine, so be it. You look 383 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 2: up the numbers. It's like he was really good and 384 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 2: it was a clutch shooter and had some nice moments. 385 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 3: He was also eighteen three and three for his career, 386 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 3: so he can pump the brakes on a little of 387 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 3: the hey giography on him. But set that aside. And 388 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 3: I never pronounced that word properly. Uh, But. 389 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 2: Whatever said, whatever your plan on making this broadcast about 390 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 2: Reggie and Spike and the Knicks in the Garden has 391 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 2: to go out the window. When Jalen Brunson goes out 392 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 2: with a mysterious injury for a quarter and a half 393 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 2: and no one knows anything. I there was no updates. 394 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 2: They couldn't they weren't. They made no effort, it seemed, 395 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 2: to find the video of when the injury happened. They 396 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 2: just kept showing us the video of when they thought 397 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 2: the injury happened. 398 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 3: But it didn't. 399 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 2: He got hit in the groin on a play and 400 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 2: then played another four or five plays, then asked out 401 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 2: and then was gone and we got nothing on it. 402 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 2: Then later in the game, Og and Nanobi is on 403 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 2: a fast break, comes up, lame throws, the ball up 404 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 2: falls out of bounds. They don't acknowledge that that has 405 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 2: happened for two possessions. The Knicks are playing five on four. 406 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 2: They haven't said anything, and then they immediately diagnose Og. Oh, 407 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 2: it's just cramps. He'll be fine, Na Bro, he heard 408 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 2: his hamstring. Og might be done for the playoff. I 409 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 2: have no idea, but hamstrings are tricky. I have no 410 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 2: inside information there. 411 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,479 Speaker 3: But it wasn't cramps, Like, what are we doing? 412 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 2: Jalen brunts in Then after a foot injury that to 413 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 2: this moment, we got no. 414 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 3: Like, Oh, here's where it could have happened. 415 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 2: All you have is time scour every every piece of 416 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 2: footage you have of jailing from the beginning of the 417 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 2: game to the three minute mark of the first quarter 418 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 2: when he went out and see when he reacted to 419 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:40,199 Speaker 2: something with his foot, like, what are we doing? So 420 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 2: that was maddening, maddening from a viewer perspective. Now to 421 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 2: Jalen I, he would have had another forty What did 422 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 2: he end with? How many points did he end with? 423 00:26:55,240 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 2: Thirty two? The it might be, it might have been 424 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 2: twenty eight, might be thirty two. I'm gonna I'll pull 425 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 2: it up right now. Okay, neither twenty nine twenty nine, 426 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 2: but in thirty two minutes, because he so he usually 427 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 2: plays forty five, he had twenty nine to eighteen shots 428 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 2: made every key three and those three Villanova guys. Man 429 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 2: Heart is just an unbelievable winning player, just a total winner. 430 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 3: Can I demand? 431 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,439 Speaker 2: I'm gonna make Demonte laugh here because obviously the skill, 432 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 2: the size, all this stuff is. 433 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 3: Not on the part. But you know, Josh Hart reminds 434 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 3: me of. 435 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 2: Angs, Yes, exactly right, Like I don't know how you 436 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 2: do it, but you're just Angus was a guy, a 437 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,959 Speaker 2: wonderful young man that Demonse played high school basketball with. 438 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 2: But Angus was not that tall, was not that like skilled, 439 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 2: but just outworked everybody on every possession and what's just 440 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 2: a winner, you know, strong and tough, never complained in 441 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 2: a winner. 442 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 4: And he he hasn't are he hasn't seen the bench 443 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,399 Speaker 4: since his Villanova days. Do you think that he's killing 444 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 4: the whole load management debate? 445 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 2: Well, so here's the thing I know that there is. 446 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 2: Folks are like, wow, you know Tibbs really putting load 447 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 2: management to shame? Yes and no, because he also now 448 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 2: has had five guys get hurt. So Randall is out 449 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 2: and has been out, Bogdanovich got injured during the playoffs, 450 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 2: Mitchell Robinson has a stress fracture. He's out og as 451 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 2: a hamstring we'll see on him. And Jalen Brunson's got 452 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 2: a mysterious foot thing. So I don't know actually that 453 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 2: he's killing the load management thing because his players do 454 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 2: are unfortunately dropping. But I the and the Pacers complaining 455 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 2: after the game they sent to the league go ahead. 456 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 4: No, I just think if you're the Pacers in your 457 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 4: at this point in the postseason, I don't. I mean, 458 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 4: they're not here often. I just think that you'd want 459 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 4: to be able to say at the end of everything 460 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 4: that you did everything in your power to advance and 461 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 4: like complaining to the refs when you're at this stage, 462 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 4: when you're not here often, I just think is a waste. 463 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 2: And also sending seventy nine plays that you think they 464 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 2: got wrong in the first two games. Shut up, that's 465 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 2: too many the and it's just too seventy nine. 466 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 3: I mean, what are you doing? I mean, what are 467 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 3: we talking about? 468 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 2: Also Carlisle doing the small market blues when Okacs undefeated. 469 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 2: Minneapolis isn't exactly you know, Los Angeles they're undefeated. Denver 470 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 2: is medium sized market. They won the championship, like miss me. 471 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 2: With that, I think it's impossible to analyze this series 472 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 2: moving forward until we know more about OG and Jalen's injuries. 473 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: But I do not think it is impossible to say this. 474 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson has been the best player in this postseason. 475 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 2: With respect to Anthony Edwards, he has been the best 476 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 2: player in this postseason with the heaviest load, and he is, 477 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 2: to me now a minted superstar. 478 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 3: What I I'll give you. 479 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 2: We can go back and forth on names, but I 480 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 2: would rather have Jalen Brunson than Devin Booker. I would 481 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 2: rather have Jalen Brunson than Donovan Mitchell. I would rather 482 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 2: have Jalen Brunson right now than Jimmy Butler. I would 483 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 2: rather have Jalen Brunson than Damian Lillard. I would I 484 00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 2: just that is what this regular season and then postseason 485 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 2: has done, in my opinion for his standing. All right, Demonse, 486 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 2: let's move on. 487 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 4: All right, So demonte Bird lookalike Byron Scott went on 488 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 4: Undisputed and took a shot at Lebron yesterday. So we're 489 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 4: gonna take a look at what he said. For those 490 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 4: watching on YouTube, he. 491 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 3: Said, Yeah, I got it. Make Lebron the coach. 492 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 2: It's obvious to me, at least the He's making a 493 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 2: lot of decisions that are going on in this organization, 494 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 2: from a coaching standpoint to a player standpoint. So if 495 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 2: you're gonna allow him make those decisions, sit on the 496 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 2: bench and make those decisions as well, beat the head coach. 497 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 4: Go ahead. Yeah. So, in his saltiness, do you think 498 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 4: he actually provided the Lakers with their answer? 499 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 2: Okay, So here's the only thing I'm gonna ask. If 500 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 2: Lebron's always been the coach and the GM for the Lakers, 501 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 2: then I guess he does have six rings, just like 502 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 2: Michael because he gets one for playing and winning the championship, 503 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 2: one for building the team, and one for being the 504 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 2: head coach. This if Lebron's making all the decisions, then 505 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving would be a Laker and Tyler would be. 506 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 3: The head coach. 507 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 2: So again, I know folks love to do this math 508 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 2: of the things that work out for the Lakers. The 509 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 2: Lakers did and the things that don't, like the Westbrook 510 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 2: trade Lebron did, and when they that Lebron somehow has 511 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 2: firing power of coaches but not hiring power. All of 512 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 2: this self serving nonsense is fine. Uh do I think Lebron. 513 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 3: Here? Do I think he's going to be player coach? No? 514 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 3: Do I think that would have worked over the course 515 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:45,719 Speaker 3: of a season. 516 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 4: No? 517 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 2: Do I think unequivocally that if Lebron were a player 518 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 2: coach for that Nugget series that the Lakers would have 519 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 2: fared better. 520 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:00,040 Speaker 3: I do. 521 00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 2: Do I think Lebron is better, would be a better 522 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 2: player coach, was an actual coach? 523 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 4: Yes? Go ahead? Could you walking back? You said if 524 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 4: Lebron were the player coach and the Denver series it 525 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 4: would have went better? 526 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 2: As what you said, Yeah, I mean, if Lebron were 527 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 2: the player coach in the Denver series. I think that 528 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 2: when the multiple times in the third quarters when Denver 529 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 2: is going on their game changing runs, Lebron would have 530 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 2: called a timeout. I do think that. I don't think 531 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 2: against Denver Lebron would have trotted out the three guard 532 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 2: lineup that Darvin was obsessed with all year that never worked. 533 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 3: I do think that. 534 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 2: Now, do I think it? What are in between them 535 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 2: winning and losing the series? I? Probably not? But do 536 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 2: I think they would have been better coached in that 537 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 2: series with Lebron as the player coach? 538 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 3: Yes? Do I think he could do it? Anyone could 539 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,479 Speaker 3: do it over the course of a year. No, I 540 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 3: think the. 541 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 2: Leagues two different Bill Russell did it. I understand different league, 542 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 2: different film study, different responsibilities, all of that. All right, Uh, 543 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 2: let's go on to the MAVs thunder. 544 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, your lard Slovenian son looks like he needs to 545 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 4: stay off the SIGs and hookah. Two questions for you, 546 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 4: is Luca abound to have a bounce back game? I 547 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 4: kind of feeling to know what your great answer is 548 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 4: to that one? And of the MAVs screwed if he doesn't. 549 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 2: Yes, and yes, I do think he'll bounce back. And 550 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:35,360 Speaker 2: I also think they their only path is He's gotta 551 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,760 Speaker 2: be vintage playoff Luca go ahead to Monsey. 552 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I don't think that for the Mavericks 553 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 4: to be successful. I think what is a Kyrie and 554 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 4: Luca had to combine like thirty nine. I don't think 555 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:48,240 Speaker 4: that type. I don't think that can happen. 556 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,919 Speaker 2: No, it has to be closer to seven seventy honestly, Yeah, 557 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 2: for real. 558 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 3: Like this is that. 559 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 2: Luca's Kyrie's gotta get is gonna give you twenty five 560 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,800 Speaker 2: to thirty and Luca's got to give you thirty plus 561 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 2: with double digit assists and good Rebound's the only way 562 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 2: they don't have a good enough and Luca, by the way, 563 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 2: Game one was maybe the worst playoff game of his career. 564 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 2: It was the second fewest points the I think third, 565 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:24,399 Speaker 2: it was one of his third worst shooting percentage, fewest threes. 566 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 3: He's ever made. 567 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 2: It was terrible, Like it wasn't just like bad by 568 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:28,959 Speaker 2: Lucas standards, he was actually bad. 569 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 3: Uh, And so. 570 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, they the the through line for this MAVs team 571 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 2: is Luca's gotta be lebron with the Caps. Kyrie's there, 572 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 2: Kyrie's gotta be Kyrie, and Luca's gotta be controlling everything 573 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 2: and then hitting open three point shooters, and they got 574 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,360 Speaker 2: to hit the shots. Now, I believe in Luca, and 575 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna do what people want to do for 576 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 2: Jamal Murray, which is Jamal Murray. When he's brilliant in 577 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 2: Game five against the Lakers, he's brilliant. And when he's 578 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 2: bad in Game one and two against the Thunder or 579 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,839 Speaker 2: against the Tea Wolves, he's hurt. I've been down that 580 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 2: road in twenty sixteen with Steph Curry, and it was 581 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 2: one of the most annoying storylines I'd ever seen. In 582 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, Steph did get dinged and missed time, and 583 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 2: then he came back and in his first game back 584 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 2: in the playoffs, he had forty points, including a record 585 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 2: that stands to this day, seventeen points in overtime and 586 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 2: literally screamed, I'm back. And then the very next game 587 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 2: was awesome. And then the beginning of the series against OKC, 588 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 2: he really struggled and everyone's like, oh, Steph's hurt. You can't, guys, guys, 589 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 2: we all know he's hurt. And then in Game seven 590 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 2: against Okay, see was brilliant. They're like, oh, Steph's back, 591 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 2: he's great. And then in the beginning of the finals 592 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 2: against the Calves, Steph was or the game four, the 593 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 2: big game to go up three one against the Calves, 594 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,360 Speaker 2: he was great. We were like, man, Steph Curry's back. 595 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,320 Speaker 2: And then the final three games against the Calves, he's struggling, 596 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 2: and I. 597 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 3: Was like, oh, he's hurt. 598 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 2: You can't do that. We can't do though. When he's great, 599 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,399 Speaker 2: he's great, and when he's not he's hurt. Is Luca 600 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 2: one hundred percent? Probably not, But Luca was kicked ass 601 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,879 Speaker 2: in Game six against the Clippers. So I'm not gonna 602 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 2: sit here and be like, oh, but now he's not 603 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 2: playing well, it's because he's hurt. 604 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 3: And people are trying to do the same thing with 605 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 3: Jamal Murray. I don't like it. 606 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 2: Uh, Luca's gotta be better. If he's not awesome, they 607 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 2: can't win. If he is awesome, they can. I think 608 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,879 Speaker 2: he'll be awesome. Quick break right back, what's right? 609 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 3: All right? Welcome back in what's right? With Nick? Right 610 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 3: real quick? I'm just seeing on my timeline Jadon Daniels 611 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 3: and Malik neighbors the LSU quarterback and wide receiver who 612 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 3: are now Washington's quarterback and the Giants wide receiver. We're 613 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 3: on Keyshawn's pod and all facts. No breaks is what 614 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:20,439 Speaker 3: it's called. 615 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 2: And we just put out the clip of them saying 616 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 2: they have a ten thousand dollars bet between them on 617 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 2: who wins Offensive Rookie of the Year. 618 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 3: I don't, guys, I don't think that's allowed. I think 619 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 3: that's considered gambling on the NFL. I think it's totally 620 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 3: fine and not a problem. But I also, like I 621 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 3: wouldn't say that publicly, and I wouldn't. 622 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:49,479 Speaker 4: I don't. 623 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,720 Speaker 3: I don't think that's allowed, guys. 624 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:59,240 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. I mean, it's been up for eighteen hours, 625 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 2: so like. 626 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:08,839 Speaker 3: I I don't for the camera, Yeah, that's I think 627 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 3: what you gotta say. I just don't think that's allowed. 628 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,440 Speaker 3: I'd yeah, I don't know. 629 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,280 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to get anyone, and I can't imagine 630 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 2: they would actually get in trouble. But I don't think 631 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 2: you're I don't think anything involving. 632 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:27,399 Speaker 3: For professional football. They want your betting on if you're 633 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 3: playing professional football. I'm just I just I just think 634 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 3: that all right to Mona. 635 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,759 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, so Uh. Historically for a team to win 636 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 4: a finals, they have to take their playoff slumps. Uh. 637 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 4: But Minnesota and Okasee are both undefeated and look like 638 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:48,880 Speaker 4: the real deal despite being inexperience and young. Uh. Do 639 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,439 Speaker 4: you think this is the year that that historical mold 640 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 4: is broken? 641 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:59,280 Speaker 2: So it would be more broken from a team standpoint 642 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 2: of OKC does it? OKC is the youngest team to 643 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 2: ever win a single game in Round two. They're the 644 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 2: second youngest team to ever win a single series. That 645 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 2: team winning a title seems impossible, but we talked about 646 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,759 Speaker 2: this on the TV show yesterday. The only thing, the 647 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 2: only argument against them is the experience argument. Top five offense, 648 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 2: top five defense. They don't turn the ball over, they 649 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 2: have the best three point shooting in basketball. 650 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 3: The only thing they do. 651 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 2: Poorly is rebound. I don't think they're gonna win the title. 652 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 2: Like the way this should work, Demons is Boston should 653 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 2: win the title if Denver gets popped. This is all 654 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,880 Speaker 2: on a silver platter for Boston. You're either playing a 655 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 2: MAVs team. 656 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 4: That is that end of how easy it was for 657 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 4: the Celtics though, Oh nobody cares about that. 658 00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:01,280 Speaker 3: Nobody cares about that the title. You win the title. 659 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 2: The only time people I think care about that is 660 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 2: if in the finals the other team's best players suffered 661 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 2: debilitating injury. Yeah, like the I do look at that 662 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 2: Raptors Championship as good for them for getting there and surviving. 663 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 2: But when Klay Thompson blows out his knee and Kevin 664 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 2: Durant plays eleven minutes in the series and Pops's achilles. 665 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,840 Speaker 3: Do I think they were the best team? 666 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 2: No? 667 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? 668 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 2: Like the I don't, But nobody cares about path like 669 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 2: the and the Celtics earned the path might be in 670 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 2: the one seede being so the the the That's the 671 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 2: way it should work this year because if you play 672 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 2: the MAVs, you have six of the eight best. 673 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:53,760 Speaker 3: Players in the series. 674 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 2: If you play the Timberwolves you have the ability to 675 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,719 Speaker 2: kind of play five out in a way that could 676 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 2: really give them trouble and maybe play Rudy off the floor. 677 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 2: And if you play the Thunder you have all the experience. 678 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I wouldn't look. 679 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 3: At it as that is. 680 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 4: The Celtics don't win, it just opens up a whole 681 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 4: new like can for the NBA I just feel like 682 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 4: everything will just be recalibrated. 683 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 2: One right, and the only the only world where the 684 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 2: Celtics could have not won the title given the playoff 685 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 2: bracket and felt good about their season was if Denver 686 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 2: beat them, If you're playing the defending champs, if Jokic 687 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 2: is there, if he just elevates to another level, it's like, 688 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 2: all right, like you know what I mean, we're playing 689 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 2: an all time great player and at the peak of 690 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 2: his powers. But if twenty two year old Anthony Edwards dust, 691 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 2: you gotta. 692 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 4: The argument with this Cltics the entire time. Like when 693 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 4: they I mean when they got to the finals, it's like, oh, 694 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 4: they're not experienced. They've been here yep and. 695 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and now they have exactly And it's a weird 696 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 2: spot because, like, I like, the Celtics are your team. 697 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,280 Speaker 3: They play a playoff game tonight. 698 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 2: My guess is you're not even that excited for it 699 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 2: because it feels. 700 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 4: Like I'm way more doubt into other series than I 701 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,399 Speaker 4: am the Celtics. I mean this, this whole if I'm 702 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 4: being honest, this whole playoff runt. I've been watching more 703 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:31,240 Speaker 4: of other teams watched the Celtics. 704 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, because right, because it's like, all right, they're obviously 705 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 2: gonna beat Miami without Jimmy, They're obviously gonna beat Cleveland. 706 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,720 Speaker 2: And then you know what I mean, next round they 707 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 2: could be playing a Knicks team that has nobody left 708 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 2: or a Pacers Like I. 709 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 4: Mean, like if it is exactly rather it or not be. 710 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,760 Speaker 2: But yeah, and so I the so it's a weird 711 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 2: spot the Okay, all right, let's move on to a game. 712 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 2: It's a new game we're playing called Moving the Needle 713 00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 2: Dog Edition dog Ometer. 714 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 3: Okay, try, this is a real test. 715 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,720 Speaker 4: Oh so Yeah. Everybody likes to say their favorite players 716 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 4: have that dog in them, but if we're being honest, 717 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 4: some players are more toy poodle than pitbull. So, in 718 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 4: honor of the Westminster Dog Show coming to Fox early 719 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,839 Speaker 4: next week, let's take a look at how much dog 720 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 4: these playoffs starts have inside of them. First off, we 721 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:28,319 Speaker 4: got we got my guy, Jason Tatum. Jason Tatum has 722 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 4: led the Celtics to the conference finals in four of 723 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,920 Speaker 4: the last six years, but Tatum has has bad, bad 724 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,359 Speaker 4: shooting Knights and has only scored twenty four points once 725 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 4: in these playoffs. On a scale of pup to hound, 726 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 4: how much does Tatum? How much dog does Jason Tatum 727 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:42,839 Speaker 4: have inside of him? 728 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 3: Oh? 729 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:49,919 Speaker 2: Look, demon say the the the hound is Dexter. Yeah, 730 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 2: our dog on the far right. But so here's the thing. 731 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna put him like a squirrel over the left, 732 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 2: put him right in the middle, because we have seen. 733 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 2: Listen Tatum's Game six against Giannis, Yeah is all time? 734 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 2: His Game seven against Philly last year? 735 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 3: Was it Philly? 736 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:18,240 Speaker 2: I think it was, Yeah is all time. But here's 737 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 2: the other thing. The And this is where Celtic Celtics 738 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 2: fans get so mad at Colin Cowherd because he's like 739 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:32,239 Speaker 2: he basically calls Tatum a B plus a minus and 740 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 2: that he'll never be in A plus. He'll never be 741 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 2: like that guy. But I think he's right. And the 742 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 2: evidence I would bring you is this, even the best 743 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:48,600 Speaker 2: player in the world, joker can be bad, downright bad 744 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:51,719 Speaker 2: in a playoff game like he was Game two. Everybody 745 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 2: has bad games, but the best guys when they're in 746 00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 2: their prime, never have a string of them in a 747 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:06,919 Speaker 2: row in the postseason. And Tatum, you could argue, he's 748 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 2: played six playoff games this year, he's played up to 749 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:13,719 Speaker 2: his standard in one of them the last four he's 750 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:17,240 Speaker 2: six of sixteen, five of fourteen, four of nine, seven 751 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,399 Speaker 2: of nineteen, and he's averaging less than twenty points. That's 752 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 2: a four game stretch. 753 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,439 Speaker 4: You say he's the guy with the best supporting cast ever, 754 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 4: though like it's more. 755 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,720 Speaker 2: I mean, yes, but he's got the best supporting cast 756 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 2: of everybody. But so here's the thing that doesn't explain 757 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 2: the inefficiency, that would explain low point totals. But when 758 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 2: he's taking shots, he's trying to make them. And so 759 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:49,720 Speaker 2: I just the worry I would have if I were you, Demonse, 760 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 2: is this, no matter who comes out of the West, 761 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 2: they're gonna have the best player in the series. 762 00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 3: And say, Luca Joker. 763 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 2: There's only like five six guys in the league that 764 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:08,760 Speaker 2: are hands down better than Tatum, but they're all left 765 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 2: in the Western Conference, And so you're not you can 766 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 2: win without. 767 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 4: Having all those players are better? Right you said all 768 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:17,439 Speaker 4: those players are Okay. 769 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:20,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. One of those four guys 770 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:24,880 Speaker 2: is going to be in the finals. Aunt, Shae, Luca Joker. 771 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:27,760 Speaker 2: They're all better than Tatum. 772 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:28,719 Speaker 3: They just are. 773 00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 4: So I think that's a little recency bias right there. 774 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 4: But Uh, you on you saying that all of them 775 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 4: are okay except for except for a joker, but an 776 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:46,880 Speaker 4: in Shae and who's the other one you mentioned? Luca 777 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 4: okay fair. 778 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 2: Better than Tatum his whole career. The I know you don't, 779 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,400 Speaker 2: but that's fine. I mean, An just finished second in 780 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 2: MVP voting. I'm sorry, Shae just finished second MVP voting. 781 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 3: And Ant is. 782 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:02,759 Speaker 2: Been light in the world on fire that you're right 783 00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 2: that this year people thought Tatum was better than Ant, 784 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:08,760 Speaker 2: not than Shay, but then Ant. 785 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:10,799 Speaker 3: But I don't think that. 786 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 2: I don't. I think Ants a killer in away. Tatum's 787 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:15,920 Speaker 2: not sorry, I just do. 788 00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 4: All right? Next? All right, Secondly, we'll go with Jamal Murray, 789 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 4: whose pockets are one hundred thousand lighter. After throwing that 790 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:27,399 Speaker 4: hot pack on the on the court, you called him 791 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 4: a baby, but let's not forget he's also arguably the 792 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:33,520 Speaker 4: greatest playoff riser ever on a scale of pupp to hound. 793 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 4: How much dog does Jamal Murray having him. 794 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,560 Speaker 2: Well, were about to find out right now. I'll put 795 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 2: him in the yellow so, you know, closer to hound 796 00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,799 Speaker 2: than pup for people that are listening. Uh, but let's 797 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 2: go see how he looks. In Game three, the guy 798 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:56,920 Speaker 2: won't I have been really uh disenchanted, I don't know 799 00:48:56,960 --> 00:49:01,360 Speaker 2: if that's the right word, but disappointed with his antics 800 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:06,840 Speaker 2: and his comments and lack of accountability, uh for that 801 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:08,279 Speaker 2: nonsense in game too. 802 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:10,920 Speaker 3: And he hasn't been very good flatly. 803 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 4: Uh. 804 00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:14,880 Speaker 2: The Lakers series bizarre because he was only great in 805 00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:17,239 Speaker 2: one game. He didn't play a good series, but he 806 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 2: had two game wins, and so right, I mean the 807 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:23,400 Speaker 2: two game winners, like you just wipe everything away. But 808 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,799 Speaker 2: then in these two games he's been whiny, he's been complaining, 809 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 2: and so yeah, we'll see, let's see. I reserve the 810 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 2: right to change that opinion. 811 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,480 Speaker 3: All right, is this the most? 812 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 4: Like? How often is this not the most that players 813 00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 4: and coaches have have whined about reffing in the postseason? 814 00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:44,799 Speaker 4: Is it? Is it at a high or is it 815 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:46,320 Speaker 4: just about the standard? 816 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:50,320 Speaker 2: I would say it's most, but it's more than usual. 817 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:54,919 Speaker 2: Doc Rivers is an all time you know, ref complainer guy. 818 00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:59,000 Speaker 2: There are certain coaches that try to work the refs. 819 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:03,000 Speaker 3: In the media. I do. I do think that there 820 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:08,719 Speaker 3: is higher more than usual, but not the most. 821 00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:10,759 Speaker 4: You think it has anything to do with the new 822 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 4: rule changes? 823 00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:16,319 Speaker 2: That im, well, that aren't official rule changes. Yes, I 824 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 2: do think that, like that they change the rules mid 825 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 2: season without actually changing the rules and started letting people 826 00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 2: play more physical. I also think what is frustrating guys 827 00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:32,440 Speaker 2: is if you watch Dallas OKC, it was officiated like 828 00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,760 Speaker 2: how games were officiated the first week of the regular season, 829 00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:38,920 Speaker 2: and if you had just watched Minnesota Denver, it was 830 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:42,080 Speaker 2: officiated like it was happening in a prison, And so 831 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,879 Speaker 2: it's like, well, do we know like what rules we're 832 00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 2: going to be playing by now? The reason I actually 833 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 2: thought both games were fine was because they were officiated 834 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 2: consistently within the game, you know what I mean. Like 835 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:03,040 Speaker 2: Dallas OKAC had a very tight whistle from the very 836 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:06,880 Speaker 2: beginning to the very end, and Minnesota Denver had no whistle. 837 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 3: From the very beginning to the very end. 838 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:11,880 Speaker 2: The all right, that is also the other concern for 839 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 2: OKAC is what if they don't get the whistle. So 840 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:20,279 Speaker 2: Shae Shay this year, this is an unbelievable stat. Shay 841 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:23,680 Speaker 2: this year shot the exact same number of free throws 842 00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:30,759 Speaker 2: as Lebron and Paul George combined. Those two guys played 843 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 2: one hundred and forty five games. Between the two of them, 844 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:36,280 Speaker 2: Shay played seventy five. I think he shot the exactly 845 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 2: so he. 846 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:42,840 Speaker 4: Hands down better than Tatum. By the way, I. 847 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,280 Speaker 2: Think he is better than Tatum, but I'm just saying 848 00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 2: a lot of that is relying on his ability to 849 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,800 Speaker 2: get to the line, and if he's not getting the whistle, 850 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:52,720 Speaker 2: I wonder how that's gonna impact him all right. 851 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 4: Next, most people may associate Donovan Mitchell with more with 852 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 4: an Iraq name than a dog. Stopped him from becoming 853 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 4: a top ten point points per game score over the 854 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:07,040 Speaker 4: playoffs on a scale of Scooby Doo to air Bud? 855 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,240 Speaker 4: How much dog is a ton of Mitchell have inside 856 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 4: of him? 857 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:12,759 Speaker 3: Why is hold on? Why so air Bud's the best? 858 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm confused on Scooby Doo w being not dog? 859 00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:17,319 Speaker 3: Yeah? 860 00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 2: I terrible ranking system guys, he's cowardly. Shut up, Daniel, 861 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,640 Speaker 2: what do you know about Scooby Doo? You're too young? 862 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 2: They called Scooby do How many crimes have you solved? 863 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:32,399 Speaker 1: Uh? 864 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,719 Speaker 3: I'm I'm I'm gonna say. 865 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:41,520 Speaker 2: On offense, he's ultimate dog and on defense even in 866 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:44,440 Speaker 2: the playoffs, he's a total pop. And it's why I 867 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 2: can't totally get on board with Donovan Mitchell the superstar. 868 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:53,440 Speaker 2: But on offense, he's unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable and has been 869 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 2: his whole career. All right, let's go to Anthony Edwards. 870 00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 4: Uh, former Georgia Bulldog. Anthony Edwards taking the league by storm. 871 00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:03,880 Speaker 4: He's talking to that talk and he's also backing it 872 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:07,080 Speaker 4: up on a scale of cats. A Georgia bulldog. How 873 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,399 Speaker 4: much dog does Anthony Edwards having side of him? 874 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 3: Is this even a question? 875 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 4: Yeah? 876 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:19,680 Speaker 3: Full blown bulldog. This guy is so much fun. 877 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 4: Malonaise or something? 878 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 3: What what did you say? 879 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:25,279 Speaker 4: A malonnaise melaniese? 880 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,080 Speaker 3: Oh? Is that like a big, strong dog? 881 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 4: You know? More do? It's like a German shepherd, but 882 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:33,720 Speaker 4: like their faces are more blacked out. I think cops 883 00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 4: use him? 884 00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:41,280 Speaker 2: Oh a Belgian shepherd?

Let's not call him a cop dog. 887 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:56,160 Speaker 2: But yeah, but but yeah, tough, like a angry Doberman 888 00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:57,239 Speaker 2: Junkyard dog. 889 00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:01,480 Speaker 3: I love god, I love watching him. All right, let's go. 890 00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 4: Last year, you said Dexter has no place that the 891 00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:05,760 Speaker 4: Dog Show. 892 00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:07,320 Speaker 3: Oh wait, no, you're skipping the Thunder. 893 00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:11,160 Speaker 4: Hold on, hold on, crap, no, no disrespect. After every 894 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,799 Speaker 4: win the Thunder do their own core interviewed together and 895 00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 4: ended by barking such dorks on a scale of cat 896 00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:21,600 Speaker 4: to Michael J. Fox and teen Wolves, how much dog 897 00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 4: does the Thunder have inside of them? 898 00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,160 Speaker 2: Okay, first of all, this is a little unfair to 899 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,600 Speaker 2: Cat now Karl Anthony Towns because he is showing some 900 00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:33,799 Speaker 2: real fight here. But yeah, the Thunders grouping or I 901 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 2: got it on. I'm going to sound like a bit 902 00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 2: of a hater and I kind of want someone. 903 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:39,279 Speaker 3: To beat them. 904 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:42,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I hope it's Luca. It's just a little 905 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 2: too high schooling. And I know they're young, and I 906 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,719 Speaker 2: know lot of fun. Man, they are having a lot 907 00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:51,959 Speaker 2: of fun with it. And I know that's why he said. 908 00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,520 Speaker 2: I know, I'm being a bit of a hater here. 909 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:58,480 Speaker 4: I mean I saw him or like a quote from 910 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:00,640 Speaker 4: one of the guys, but it's like they are the only, 911 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 4: like the only group of guys that are aware of 912 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 4: what they're doing. Like, dude, you're making millions of dollars 913 00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:09,600 Speaker 4: to play basketball? 914 00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:15,239 Speaker 2: Uh? J Williams is quote No, so Jalen Williams Is 915 00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 2: quote is a great one where he's like he was 916 00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:21,759 Speaker 2: asked about something and he was like, man, I get 917 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 2: paid millions of dollars to play basketball. And also you 918 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 2: got to keep in mind Jalen Williams' career, Demanse, Jalen Williams, 919 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:37,799 Speaker 2: three star kid. His only offers were Nevada, Hofstra and 920 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:43,400 Speaker 2: Santa Clara. He went to Santa Clara and you know, 921 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 2: was not on a lot of people's radar until the 922 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 2: very end of his collegiate career. And now he's, uh, 923 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:58,319 Speaker 2: the second best player on the number one seed, you know, 924 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 2: the Oklahoma City Thunder. And so he is, I think, 925 00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 2: really over the moon at what's happened. And that is 926 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:10,320 Speaker 2: great scouting by them, by the way, Sam Thrusting and company. 927 00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:11,800 Speaker 3: All right, last one, Demanse. 928 00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:14,960 Speaker 4: All right, so last year you said Dexter has no 929 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:18,160 Speaker 4: place at the dog show. Well, let's let's take a look. 930 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:22,120 Speaker 3: Here's why my client was not invited to Westminster. He's 931 00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:23,920 Speaker 3: one of the dumbest animals ever to live. 932 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,280 Speaker 4: He's really he's not great. 933 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 3: I mean, I understand no dogs are brilliant, but our 934 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:37,720 Speaker 3: dog is cartoonishly stupid. Oh yeah, go ahead, demanse. 935 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:40,759 Speaker 4: So, do you think he's improved his draft stock since 936 00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:41,279 Speaker 4: last year? 937 00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:46,320 Speaker 2: No, I mean he's he's he's sweeter now than he 938 00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:51,840 Speaker 2: used to be. He's a little less like insane, but 939 00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:56,759 Speaker 2: he's still pretty nuts and he is just real. I 940 00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:58,759 Speaker 2: don't know if I've told this story on the air 941 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,400 Speaker 2: or not, but I'll tell it real quick and then 942 00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 2: we'll move on when I say he's dumb. Every morning, 943 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:11,200 Speaker 2: every morning, I get up and. 944 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:13,640 Speaker 3: I take him out, and I give. 945 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 2: Him fresh water and fresh food, and he hangs out 946 00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:22,280 Speaker 2: until I go to work, and then every day when 947 00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:26,960 Speaker 2: I get home from work, that water and food are 948 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:31,240 Speaker 2: sitting there untouched, no matter if I get home at 949 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:34,360 Speaker 2: four forty five or seven thirty at night. 950 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:38,040 Speaker 3: And then the moment I walk in the. 951 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:43,000 Speaker 2: Door, I take him out, and then he ravenously eats 952 00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 2: and drinks everything he had, and I give him more 953 00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:48,920 Speaker 2: water and he drinks it up because he is starving 954 00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:56,600 Speaker 2: and so thirsty. And I think it is because if 955 00:57:56,720 --> 00:58:00,240 Speaker 2: I'm not there, he hasn't yet figured out that I 956 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:03,960 Speaker 2: always come back. And I think he's like, this might 957 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 2: have to last me the rest of my life, so 958 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 2: I can't no matter how hungry or thirsty, I am, 959 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 2: I can't eat it or well, so that does involve 960 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:18,920 Speaker 2: a level of thinking. But also after three years, you 961 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:23,520 Speaker 2: haven't realized, buddy, I'm always coming back. I mean, this 962 00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 2: poor guy is just sitting there so thirsty and hungry 963 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 2: and won't touch the food. 964 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:33,440 Speaker 3: And that's just I mean, he's just, I mean he's 965 00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 3: I love him. I love him, But I know it's 966 00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:41,360 Speaker 3: been a while. You haven't seen him since Thanksgiving? 967 00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a while.

Correct? 977 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 2: And also if the Nuggets the the Nuggets played okay 978 00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 2: see late in the year and SGA hit a game 979 00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:26,160 Speaker 2: winner with a second left, Yeah, like, there are a 980 00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 2: lot of ways for the Nuggets to be the one 981 00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:30,160 Speaker 2: seed and not be dealing with this. And by the way, 982 00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:34,280 Speaker 2: shout out to Bradley Hammond, who was on our stream 983 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:37,280 Speaker 2: before we went live, so we wanted to let his 984 00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 2: question be up first. I Yeah, I mean, I do 985 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 2: think there is some redemption here. Demons for the regular 986 00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 2: season and the Lakers screwing around the first fifty games 987 00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 2: and starts well, yeah, I mean they didn't start their 988 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:55,960 Speaker 2: best lineup until game fifty. 989 00:59:56,400 --> 00:59:57,200 Speaker 3: Just seems dumb. 990 00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 2: But you guys, people can ask darbnham about it and 991 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:04,440 Speaker 2: end up having to fight for their lives just to 992 01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 2: you know, get out of the ten spot all year. 993 01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:10,760 Speaker 2: The Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of the 994 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,720 Speaker 2: regular season and the Knicks fighting for that two seed 995 01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:18,800 Speaker 2: getting it dealing with Philly. Yes, I agree with that entirely. 996 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 3: All right. 997 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 4: Next, Caleb w asked which player currently which player currently 998 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:27,760 Speaker 4: remaining will have the biggest legacy legacy boost if they 999 01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 4: were to win the championship. Brunson. Huh, it's like just 1000 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,440 Speaker 4: considering with what I mean. 1001 01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:41,440 Speaker 3: No, I mean it is Brunson. 1002 01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:43,840 Speaker 2: I guess I don't think they can win the title, 1003 01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:47,040 Speaker 2: but yeah, I mean it would be Brunson that I 1004 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 2: think second place would be Luca. If Luca wins the title, 1005 01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 2: then he's twenty five. You're you start looking at him 1006 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:00,560 Speaker 2: as does he have a claim that he's the best 1007 01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:01,960 Speaker 2: player in the league. 1008 01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 3: It's the only you know what I mean, Well, he's 1009 01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:05,000 Speaker 3: twenty two? 1010 01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:06,960 Speaker 4: Are you saying because he? 1011 01:01:07,080 --> 01:01:12,520 Speaker 3: I mean, I I guess so, Ant. I feel like 1012 01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 3: Ant and say are younger than Luca. 1013 01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 2: I feel like, right now, Luca is almost old enough 1014 01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:25,520 Speaker 2: to a point to where he starts to catch some 1015 01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:29,240 Speaker 2: shrapnel for not having been to a finals, you know 1016 01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:33,160 Speaker 2: what I mean? So it is Luca winning the title. 1017 01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:36,280 Speaker 2: Dead's all that, and he has acclaimed best player in 1018 01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:40,760 Speaker 2: the league. Ant already is like he's found money. But yeah, 1019 01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 2: I mean, Ant, we've never seen a guy aunt's age 1020 01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:46,360 Speaker 2: be the best player on a champion. The best twenty 1021 01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:49,040 Speaker 2: two year old season we ever saw was Lebron and No. 1022 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:52,480 Speaker 2: Seven getting that team to the finals. Kobe was awesome 1023 01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:55,400 Speaker 2: at twenty two and won a title, but he obviously. 1024 01:01:55,120 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 4: Was the beloe An age. He's like barely a year older. 1025 01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:04,720 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, because Luca, Luca came in so young. That's 1026 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:08,320 Speaker 2: a good point as well. Uh so they're oh so gosh, 1027 01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 2: I thought. 1028 01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:13,160 Speaker 4: I think for Luca, it's just his legacy, but I 1029 01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:15,280 Speaker 4: think would have the bigger legacy boost. 1030 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 2: You know what, I think you're right, you know what, 1031 01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:20,520 Speaker 2: You're you're right about that about what it would do. 1032 01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:25,040 Speaker 2: The other guy sneaky, what it is Tatum? Yeah, if 1033 01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:28,480 Speaker 2: Tatum gets a finals MVP, like what you know what? 1034 01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 2: Now they win the title and Derek White gets the 1035 01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 2: finals MVP, it's it doesn't hurt Tatum obviously still. 1036 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:36,440 Speaker 4: Channel, but it's a different story. 1037 01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 3: All right, Let's go to the next one. 1038 01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:43,640 Speaker 4: Kyle, Kyle, nuts and ass Nick, what do you think 1039 01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:46,439 Speaker 4: the biggest immediate impacts of the new TV deal will 1040 01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:50,000 Speaker 4: be impact on the players, networks, organizations, et cetera. 1041 01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 3: Uh. 1042 01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:54,440 Speaker 2: I think the biggest impact is going to be people 1043 01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:59,120 Speaker 2: getting really mad on TV when the guy first guy 1044 01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:02,760 Speaker 2: signs an that's more than eighty two million dollars a year. 1045 01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 4: It is gonna be so obnoxious. 1046 01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:07,080 Speaker 3: Get more than a million dollars a game. 1047 01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:09,880 Speaker 2: That's there's gonna be no real impact other than the 1048 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,200 Speaker 2: superstar salaries are gonna be bananas. 1049 01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 3: But they earned it. Guys. People are like, why do 1050 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:17,400 Speaker 3: they make so much more than football players? Because there's 1051 01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 3: less of them guys, these twelve man teams a fifteen 1052 01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 3: man team. It's not complicated. It's just they play a 1053 01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:25,880 Speaker 3: bunch of games and there's not a lot of players. 1054 01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:32,080 Speaker 3: All right, next change d these two together. Chain P said, 1055 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:35,520 Speaker 3: let's play Fortnite. Where are we dropping in? Craig Barnett 1056 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 3: question for Nick?

But now 1066 01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 3: ranked solo is a thing. 1067 01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:16,120 Speaker 2: And I'm I mean, I'm trying to pat myself on 1068 01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:19,720 Speaker 2: the back, but I'm platinum too.

There's a little island 1090 01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:20,360 Speaker 2: with a house on it, and that island has a 1091 01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 2: bunch of bots in it, and one of them has 1092 01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:25,640 Speaker 2: a key card into a safe that has like really 1093 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:28,560 Speaker 2: good weapons. So I try to drop there to kill 1094 01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:31,160 Speaker 2: that guy immediately so I can be weaponed up. Or 1095 01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:34,600 Speaker 2: at the very top of the map, there's an island, 1096 01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:36,960 Speaker 2: but a lot of people drop there because the Star 1097 01:05:37,040 --> 01:05:39,920 Speaker 2: Wars guys are there, and if you can kill those 1098 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:43,200 Speaker 2: guys you get these sick weapons.
