00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,440

33
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: great pull. It was. I was at a wedding where

34
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: Lenny Pickett played in the band, and I was like

35
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 1: the biggest fan because a friend of mine worked on SNL,

36
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: and I was like, how did you get him on here? Anyway,

37
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: he's iconic. I work on SNL, paid him to play

38
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,679
Speaker 1: a gig. Technically, I'm like, oh okay, I thought it

39
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: was off. The strengthen relationship but anyway, Kelly Man, welcome

41
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: are your fan of? What's your what's your basketball fan history?

42
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: Where you grew up? Who you come up on? Where yet? Now?

43
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,959
Speaker 1: Spurban Chicago in Lafayette, Indiana right now, which is halfway between,

44
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: not halfway, it's closer to Indianapolis. But I'm a Bulls

45
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: guy in Chicago, So I was in my late twenties

46
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: and uh, for better words, the most embarrassing franchise the

47
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: last twenty five years is mine to call my own.

48
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:46,079
Speaker 1: I I bleed red and black and have games and say, yeah,

49
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 1: it's it's it's I think it has something to do

50
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: with all the zinc I've been taken in. But should

51
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: version to the luxury text. But yeah, I'm I'm I'm

52
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: a Bulls guy. Yeah, okay, okay, that's a little it's okay,

53
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 1: that's the right that's the right response. We've had to

54
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 1: back Bulls fans. It's just your like the third Bulls

55
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: fan that we've had in in recent weeks. And so no,

56
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 1: it's fine, it's great. The uniforms are nice, right, oh yeah,

57
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 1: oh yeah, iconic some of the best. Yeah you are

58
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: in Indiana, the scene of the crime that we're going

59
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: to get to on a little bit of the job dunk.

60
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: I mean these happened. These jaw breakers, as I've coined them,

61
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: and nobody else ever has are happening on a pretty

62
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: frequent basis. But oh oh yeah, M O R A

63
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: N T. I'm trying to do like that song with

64
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: jar Will and j LO when she's spelling are you Ellie?

65
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: And I thought it was a question if he was Ellie,

66
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: I'd rather than spelling are you Ellie? Are you Ellie?

67
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: I thought that was the thing, was like, are you Ellie?

68
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, who's Ellie? Is this a blind day? End

69
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: of the scene? Jaw rule? But okay, um, but yeah,

70
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: A question like, with your fandom being you know, like

71
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: talking about the game so much, are you able to

72
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: kind of have a healthy distance, are you still like

73
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: kind of caught up in your child fan mode? Or

74
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: you live and die by all the results. So I

75
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: can sit I can sit tight on press row and

76
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: not make it, not move a muscle and not raise

77
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: an eyebrow, even if Gilbert and running and this is

78
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 1: hitting a game winner in Kerfeinerck's face, not you know,

79
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: for me to to to, you know, lose Chicago's home

80
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: court advantage in the first round the playoffs. You know,

81
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 1: I can. I can handle my own stuff. I mean,

82
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: I should have been at that game. I had planned

83
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 1: on making a press cidential going in for that game.

84
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: I was all set up to go to that game.

85
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: Then a couple of days before I was just like,

86
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: We've got a lot of stuff to do around the house.

87
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: I haven't seen the wife in a while. I got

88
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: to take the tree down and I didn't go to

89
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: the game. I'm just very upset I did not have

90
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: that site to behold in person. Of course, while we're

91
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: on the subject, I may not have survived. So better

92
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: that I did not go to that game, because you know,

93
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: I'm getting up there in age and I don't know

94
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 1: how many sicks listening has left, and seeing on TV

95
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: was was close enough. So that was plenty. Yeah, it

96
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 1: was wonderful. You got to take the whole thing, and

97
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: you got to take the bench reaction in and we're

98
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: going to talk about it all. But should we talk

99
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: about should we talk about who's running the table of late? Yeah,

100
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: because you've got three teams that are kind of separating

101
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,359
Speaker 1: themselves a little bit. At West, you got the Nuggets

102
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: and Grizzlies. The grizz have won ten straight and the

103
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: Nuggets have won sixth straight. And then the Celtics won

104
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: seventh straight, largest point differential in the league at six

105
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: point five, best road record in the league. That's an

106
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: interesting thing that like things were trending in the direction

107
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: that like road versus home court advantage wasn't as big

108
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: a deal, and then this season it's just really really

109
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 1: reverted back. Yeah, it's weird. You think Darius Garland's road

110
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: home splits. It's very it's all very strange, like now

111
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: it matters all of a sudden. Yeah, this game against

112
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: the Hornets. I'm living in fear of Jayson Tatum. I

113
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: always live in Tatum has ruined my life. My team,

114
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: the seventies Sixers traded the ability to draft Jason Tatum

115
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,720
Speaker 1: for Mark l. Folts and gave like additional picks. I

116
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: believe I've never felt like the seventy sixers got the

117
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: better half of that deal. And so it's always it's

118
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: always stung a little bit every time he has proven

119
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: himself to be a generational talent. Yeah, I mean fifty

120
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: one points nine rebounds, five assists. One thing to note,

121
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what they have in the water in Charlotte,

122
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: but people show up. I mean embid fifty three twelve

123
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: and three on twenty thirty two shooting this year, Yokich

124
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: had that forty game, twenty seven rebounds tripled uple over there. Uh,

125
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: and then Jayson Tatum. Good things are happening, good things.

126
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 1: It's almost like Kai Jones place for the Hornets or something.

127
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 1: It's almost like, gee, I wonder what's happening now, But

128
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: let's it's probably some sort of hotel set up, or

129
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: maybe it's it's the bus, you know, like the eight

130
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: c M fees are like way lower in Charlotte than

131
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: other banks around there. Yet it can't be Kai Jones,

132
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: absolutely not. Jayson Tatum, by the way, number of fifty

133
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: point games scored in a Celtics uniform. There are five

134
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: players who have one game. Larry Bird has four games,

135
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: and Jason Tatum, who I believe is nineteen years old,

136
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: he's always so much younger than I expect him to be,

137
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: has five games already where he put up fifty or more.

138
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: It's unnerving. Yeah, there's no sign of them slowing down.

139
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: So whatever, they had that one little skid that like

140
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: teased some of us, but uh yeah, everything might fall

141
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: apart with them and the markets smart may not be happening.

142
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: That just that just gave some sort of hope. But

143
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: but no, and it's just you know, it's you can't

144
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: like them because they're the ceutic. Yeah yeah, but then

145
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,559
Speaker 1: it's like yeah then, but it's hard like as I watched,

146
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: oh my god, it they're so good. Your part to

147
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: be has like a morbid fascination. But yeah, I mean,

148
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: I won't be wearing a jersey anytime soon. Yeah. We'll

149
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,679
Speaker 1: link off to some of the highlights from that Tatum

150
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: game of fifty one, nine and five against the Hornets.

151
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: But if you need more evidence that Jayson Tatum is incredible,

152
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: uh yeah, well we'll link off to it. But man,

153
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: he looked like he could not miss, which was I

154
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: think that the scary part, which just felt like I

155
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: was like, oh, I'm going to wail everything to happen. Yeah,

156
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: they look like small shots. They look like he's so

157
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 1: strong now that when he gets up to that that

158
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: high point on his release, it doesn't look like a

159
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 1: twenty four ft shot. It looks like he's just going

160
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,839
Speaker 1: in for a free throw line pull up and and

161
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: it ain't fair for someone who's I think sixty eighteen

162
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 1: years old. Yeah, and this is a podcast that we

163
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: do in partnership with the NBA, and I think that

164
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,959
Speaker 1: that's a message that we're trying to send. It's not

165
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: fair and we need to do something about this. Jayson

166
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 1: Tatum guy, it's not it's not fair to the rest

167
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 1: of the league, to the fans, Nerf. Some of his

168
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: stats man like putting up date do a roster date, Yeah, Nerf,

169
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: some of those four on five should be should be

170
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 1: thought of. I think it's you know, especially teams around

171
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 1: the second half of the back to back. It's just

172
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: at some point you have to keep feelings in order.

173
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, Jason Tatums is just clearly unfair.

174
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 1: You're allowed to throw things at the ball when he

175
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: shoots it. I think would be maybe you know, get

176
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: the bench involved, you know what about them as sharp shooters.

177
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 1: You know. Again, anything that brings Kai Jones into this

178
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: I wanted to happen. He has, he has hornet hair,

179
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: and uh, yes, it needs we need more of him

180
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 1: on the court, even if it's only in a four

181
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: on five setting, right, So it feels like we're almost

182
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: saying that the Celtics are foregone conclusion nearly Celtics in Brooklyn.

183
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:49,319
Speaker 1: Brooklyn still still intrigued. Okay, when they had it going

184
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: in the playoffs before everybody got hurt, Like if they

185
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: can keep it going for the whole playoffs, and I

186
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: think they're pretty pretty tough to deal with. They still

187
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,079
Speaker 1: continue to look good even with Katie banged up. But

188
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: the Celtics look like I would say the Celtics are

189
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: a clearer pick to come out of their conference than

190
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: anybody out west. The grizz and the Nuggets are both

191
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: pretty hard to separate from one another. The Grizzlies have

192
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: the more recent kind of run and playoff experience. The

193
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: Nuggets had that one bubble run though, where they looked incredible,

194
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: got to the Western Conference finals, so I could I

195
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 1: could see absolutely lost his mind, right, Yeah, that was

196
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 1: that was some good shot making. Uh, We're we're kind

197
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: of unique here, Kelly on this podcast because we talked

198
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: about the importance of shot making and how good shot

199
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 1: making is in the NBA these days. You could put

200
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: a friendly wager on Brooklyn beating these Celtics and five

201
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 1: you would five close games where Kevin Durant hit six

202
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 1: of his two point shots. I mean, yeah, I took

203
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Is. It's just as hot as anything I've ever seen.

204
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: I'll go follow the Magic Johnson tweets about it, like you,

205
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,359
Speaker 1: there's no reason why we should be at all discounting

206
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: even without Nick Lackson's ascension, this team that just pulls

207
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 1: up for jumpers and does not miss them. Yeah, Magic

208
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,559
Speaker 1: Johnson some of my favorite hot takes. You know, a

209
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: hot take factory, one of one of the great tweeters, Katie,

210
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 1: who you like Between the Grizzlies and the Nuggets. Grizzlies

211
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: are so many different teams at once. Player goes down

212
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: and they're the best defensive team in the NBA and

213
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: a player that loves into the lineup and the best

214
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 1: three points you need team in the NBA, and a

215
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: player and in the middle of it as a JO

216
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 1: and sometimes he's not in the middle of it. So

217
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: I feel like they haven't shown me their greatest yet.

218
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: So I should say the Grizzlies. But Denver has a

219
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 1: full of smart and intelligent role players expertly put together

220
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: and then as the best player in basketball. Sorry that

221
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: the guy from Denver is the best player in basketball. Uh,

222
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Grizzlies because I don't know

223
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: what they're gonna even be like in May, right, Yeah,

224
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,319
Speaker 1: that's true. They're hard to prepare for, right, and that

225
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: they did seem to surprise some people in the playoff

226
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: flash year because of that, right, Like Joe went down

227
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 1: and they still got a gamer too. So let's talk

228
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: about that guy from Denver. Um. We are, of course

229
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: talking about uh Man, formerly known as the Joker, but

230
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,839
Speaker 1: will now be known as Big Honey. To me, I

231
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: didn't even know that was a nickname, but super producer

232
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: Jabari let me in on that and that that works

233
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,959
Speaker 1: much better. Yeah. It reminds me of like watching Greg

234
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: Maddox pitch at his height when like he wasn't throwing heat,

235
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: but it was just like everything was exactly on the

236
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: you know, pinpoint corner, and they were like, how come

237
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: these guys aren't just like rocking this dude and dead

238
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: glasses out there? You know? But Big Honey man, I

239
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: don't know. I can just watch him pass the ball

240
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: all day. Every every time we talk, we're like, did

241
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: you see that pass? You see that, but like his

242
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,599
Speaker 1: passing is unbelievable. And I know, if I think what

243
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: was I may it may have been the listener made

244
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 1: Paul Garaventa, one of y'all were reaching out and saying,

245
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: this is our vetus o bonus eracer. Well, yes, I mean,

246
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: obviously there's no shade rvy to Sabonus. But what we're

247
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: seeing with Yokich is like it's he's building on that,

248
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 1: and it's it's beautiful to watch the way he's doing

249
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: it is like we are seeing the next level. Yeah,

250
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: and the the league is so much more creative offensively

251
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: than it used to be because it's more spread out,

252
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: and yeah, I don't know, it's like it's like comparing

253
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: a Renaissance master and then like one of those dudes

254
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 1: who was painting when everything was like, you know, they

255
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: would paint babies that look like middle aged men. You know.

256
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: It's just like like like the Dark Ages painters, where

257
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: everyone just looks like middle aged men of various sizes,

258
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,679
Speaker 1: Like the Sabonis wasn't wasn't working with the same you know,

259
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: level of creativity and movement and spreading of the court

260
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: is putting up the Guernica you know, you know what

261
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: I mean. Alright, let's take a quick break. We'll come back.

262
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,199
Speaker 1: We'll talk about some of the best performances we've seen.

263
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: We keep keep seeing stuff from this Lebron guy that

264
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: I think it's Lebron Lebron Um. So we're gonna come

265
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 1: back and talk about these great performances, including some from

266
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 1: le Bron. James. Well, we'll be right back, and we're

267
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: back and we'll catch up with the Wendy Race next week.

268
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it's gonna be what we're talking about. Yeah,

269
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: I mean, now that we're in the back half, you know,

270
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: I think there's a little more substance to that conversation.

271
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 1: But I would like to see the Pistons good. I'm

272
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 1: not gonna say who raised the idea that the Suns

273
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: should enter the race. Uh now they're one and nine

274
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: in their last ten um. It was not me, but

275
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: somebody raised that idea that the Suns might just want

276
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: to blow it up and try and try and make

277
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: some moves. I see a lot of their fans talking

278
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: about that right now. Um, but less talk about performances

279
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: of the week. Man, This guy Chrysler le Baron Hamaz,

280
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: let me tell you he is doing s forty nine

281
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:11,239
Speaker 1: forty eight points nine? Is this eight rebounds no turnovers

282
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: against Houston. Jabari did point out that we talked about

283
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if we talked about on the show,

284
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: but there was this locker room conversation a while back

285
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 1: where it looked like, you know, Darvin Hams trying to

286
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 1: get the team fired up, and Lebron is like, yeah,

287
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: we need let's get greedy boys, blah blah blah, and

288
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: the Russell Westbrook's like, hey, let's just try and have

289
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: a good time. Man. When loser draw, let's have fun

290
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: out there. And we didn't win at all following that

291
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: conversation until this game against Houston. Obviously, also shout out

292
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: to Opering Shingoon, Uh what what record did he said?

293
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: Whatever it was, it was him and Shack, congratulations. It's

294
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: fantastic And for anyone who hasn't like looked at some

295
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: Shingoon highlights, so Shangoon has been I think when we

296
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: were first talking about starting this podcast, super producer Jabari,

297
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: who's like real NBA stat just knows everything that's going

298
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 1: on in the league and like in the people pay

299
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 1: attention to the league and all, you know, he was

300
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: talking about Shangun and I finally started watching some clips

301
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: of this person. So he's the youngest center to ever

302
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: record a triple double in the first Houston Rocket to

303
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: do so since a team. When you watch him, first

304
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: of all, he doesn't like even really read that big.

305
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: He looks like a swingman size. I would say he's

306
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: six five. He's definitely bigger than that. But yeah, yeah,

307
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: if you you just like scan him, you're like, he

308
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: also is just doing these things in close quarters where

309
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to another non basketball sports reference, but

310
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: like it's like watching one of those mm A fighters

311
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: or like martial artists who's like real good at like

312
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: the close quarters like hands and like he has his

313
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: hand over yours and you don't realize the fights over

314
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 1: like grappling or something like grappling, Like he's just like

315
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: grappler man, Like all his footwork is wild, his hands

316
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: like just where he has his the placement of the

317
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: all again, it just feels like it shouldn't work as

318
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: well as it does. He's got that chuck daily hair

319
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: um and just you know he's not he's not reading.

320
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: Is like this person is going to strike fear in

321
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: your heart, but he's he's doing it out there, I

322
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: think gets people out of the way. He's got that

323
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 1: LaMarcus Aldridge, you know, rear end Paucosol rear end thing

324
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: where he can just he just you don't know how

325
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: he moves them out of the way, but it just

326
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: gets the job done. He's tremendous to watch the ball

327
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 1: flow throughout that offense. And I'm just happy he's on

328
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: the court enough to pull that stuff off, because I

329
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: was a worried with him coming out of international play,

330
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 1: was just going to foul all the time. But he's

331
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: he's just he grapples well and he stays. But I

332
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 1: don't want to make the same mistake that every other

333
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: NBA podcast is, And uh, pay all our attention to

334
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 1: Shinguon and none of it to Lebron. James So Lebron

335
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 1: over the last seven games thirty seven points, nine point

336
00:17:55,880 --> 00:18:00,479
Speaker 1: seven boards, eight point six assists on the back end

337
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,640
Speaker 1: of a back to back like that is the back

338
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 1: to back like this reminds me of when everyone's like,

339
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: well they just came into the bubble in better shape

340
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: and like more focused than everyone. It's like, yeah, that's

341
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 1: part of the that's part of the thing. And also

342
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: he's older than everyone and he's ready to do it

343
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 1: more than anyone. Like the fact that he is at

344
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,679
Speaker 1: this age, like has the advantage on the back end

345
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: of a back to back is wild. Yeah, and it's

346
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: wild too, Like the Jabbar was sharing, like, you know,

347
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 1: a tweet that was just saying, like, the youngest player

348
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 1: in NBA history to a thousand points Lebron, two thousand points, Lebron,

349
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 1: three thousand points, Lebron all the way to twenty thousand points.

350
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 1: And you see these comments from people that are like,

351
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,159
Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean unfair advantage. Kids, He's been

352
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 1: doing it since he was eighteen, So like, let's adjust

353
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: that a little bit, Like as if that is like

354
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: would niggate what he's achieving. It's like, no, he's actually

355
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: so good that he is able to begin putting the

356
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: numbers down at that age. Not oh man, he bought

357
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: his way into the league or something, Miles, that's his

358
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 1: privilege being that good at basketball from a their young age.

359
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 1: You know, he was kind of he had an advantage,

360
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: and that's not fair. Again, the NBA needs to step

361
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: in and do something because this guy's got an advantage.

362
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,640
Speaker 1: Over everyone, and he's at it for a long time

363
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: and it's not fair. What's good as a child? I

364
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: feel like I'm giving a speech that like a Brad

365
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: Bird character would and like the incredible. But um, it

366
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: was kind of heartwarming and endearing to see Jabari Smith Jr.

367
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,360
Speaker 1: Talking to him. I think it was like right off

368
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 1: the tip, like first play of the game. Uh. I

369
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: think we have the audio from it. Yeah, just coming

370
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: up and being like you played with my daddy and

371
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: you get if you listen closely here, I'm like, hey, man,

372
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: are you trying to make you feel older? Hey, you

373
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: played with just my dad first, your first NBA game

374
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: ever Sacramento. You feel ha ha ha ha. And then

375
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: Lebron doun't. Moments later, right before the half, Lebron is

376
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: bringing it up the court and credit to this young

377
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: man because he really he's like, you know what, I'm

378
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,360
Speaker 1: gonna show him how dedicated I am on defense, only

379
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: for Lebron James to be like, you know, I've been

380
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 1: doing this since you were literally born, young man. Now

381
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: get out my way. That's just like the second or

382
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 1: third really three points down search Barie Smith looking for

383
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 1: some help. Yeah, we better call your daddy. We do

384
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 1: have to commend. As Lebron was making his way to

385
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 1: the rim, you Sawmond Garuba maybe challenge, maybe challenge, and

386
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 1: then at the last minute he decided, you know what,

387
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: I don't need to be on a poster or even

388
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:03,639
Speaker 1: near a highlight. But I do want to give it

389
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: up to him because he thought for a second right here,

390
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: he decided to gather jump and then he actually was

391
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 1: like no, no, no, we gotta get out of the circle,

392
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: you know, because otherwise that's a charge or that's not

393
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: a charge. No, this is so Superducer Javari was saying

394
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 1: that he made a good business decision. Yeah, I think

395
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: I think we need to find the right player in

396
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: the NBA to name that. That should be their nickname,

397
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: like street clothes, like business decision. Is the player who

398
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: just always is like smart enough to get out of

399
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: the way. Yeah, but like not appear on posters. He's

400
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: like the Forrest Gump of Dunk posters. Like he's in

401
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: all the posters. He's he's because he decided running the

402
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 1: other way. But yeah, he's exactly. I mean, should we

403
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 1: talk about somebody who made a poor business decision? Yeah?

404
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: I probably should. Oh, John Marant. I mean, we might

405
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 1: as get to this dunk. Oh boy, should we just

406
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: watch it once to remember what we saw. Let's let's

407
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: do it against McConnell. Okay, we need multiple angles. The

408
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 1: most cocked back a ball has ever been. Look at

409
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 1: the bench. The bench. It turned into a single celled organism. Yeah.

410
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 1: The reaction is so wonderful. Yeah, because you got like

411
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 1: somebody holding everybody back. Is it Baine who's holding everybody back?

412
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: I think so. I love I love the holding everyone

413
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 1: back like something tragic or horrible has happened, just like

414
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: you're you're leaning on the other people for supports. Please

415
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 1: don't hurt yourself. Don't hurt you, don't don't get don't

416
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: jump into the fray. The firefighters do the job. Yeah. Yeah,

417
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 1: it's like it's like the Mystic River. Yeah exactly. But yeah,

418
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: I like I like how. Even John Ray tweeted afterwards

419
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: he said he quote tweeted the video said jump with

420
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 1: me if you want to go viral um, which again,

421
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 1: I think that's the point. Mr Jalen Smith, maybe that

422
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: wasn't the best business decision you could have made, but look, hey,

423
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: not all of us find ourselves j Smith. Yeah, right,

424
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,679
Speaker 1: also known for becoming a single sell the organism on defense.

425
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 1: Sometimes it gets into some trouble with coach. Yeah, I'm

426
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: gonna say I was not a big business decision in

427
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 1: my in my career, I played against Dan get Zurich,

428
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 1: who you know, my from U c l A. Base

429
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: went on to play U c l A. I was,

430
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 1: you know, I was the two on my team. But

431
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 1: I also was like, you know, the defender, and I

432
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: was like, no, I got him. I got him, coach,

433
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: And I got dunked on like I thought that was

00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:05,400
Speaker 1: getting me points like I got so many times repeatedly embarrassingly.

435
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: It was like Rocky you know how he's just like

436
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 1: like he's eating punches like it's his job. Like he

00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 1: like the like the judges on the side there, Like, man,

Speaker 1: That's Jordan, Jonathan Bander, Lebron James and Dan Gya Zerry

442
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: the greatest. I remember in eighth grade, DJ Strawberry almost

443
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:39,640
Speaker 1: dunked on us in our basketball game. Yeah, that was strawberries. Yeah, yeah,

447
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: I had new basketball shoes. I was ready to play

455
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 1: when you came in, you're like, am I hearing like

456
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 1: a basketball game being played through a styrofoam cup? Because

457
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 1: when the ball hit the floors, like like it wasn't

458
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 1: that snap of it here? And the way those games

459
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: or points should have counted. Thank you, vacate those games,

460
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: thank you. Then c double steps in. It is like

461
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 1: nobody who played in any of these games can go

462
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 1: to a n C double a school. It's it's illegal.

463
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: Academic pursuit you are not allowed to. Just I'm trying

464
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: to engauge, like come up with the thinking that arrives

465
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 1: at that, because like the worst thing to fall on

466
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: and have rub against your body when you're like running

467
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 1: at full speed is carpet. And they were like, you

468
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: know what would be good for people a contact sport

469
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: where you fall down a lot, especially when Dan get

470
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 1: Zurich is dunking all over you. Carpet. Let's let's go

471
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: with that. Yeah, I don't know ory friction. Yeah, it's weird.

472
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: It's it was just jim floor carpeting because like it

473
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: was one of those things that had all their lines

474
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: on it, like like a I don't know, it must

475
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: have been discount or something. Anyway, do we want to

476
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: talk about our teams going against one another? Jack that

477
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 1: almost ruined us? I mean it was, it was a

478
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: good game. I mean, it's just it was like the

479
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: hard bit was that clear foul on Russell Westbrook by

480
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 1: Joel Embiid, But then the league's like, according to our analysis,

481
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: that's not a foul, and like Lakers fans like that

482
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: from games. We're dying over here. But you know what,

483
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 1: it all melted away because Like I said, Joel Embiid

484
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: is a gunner, so you know he also supports the

485
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 1: right football club. So eleven from Joel Lebron continue to

486
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 1: look incredible reach thirty K not a great close out

487
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: for it wasn't great. It wasn't great, but look, it

488
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 1: is what it is. So this is why I like,

489
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: I'm doing that Homer Simpson bush gift or I'm wearing

490
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: my Lakers uniform as I go back. Yeah, all right,

491
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 1: should we take one more break and come back and

492
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 1: do the rapid fire. Let's talk about some questions after this.

493
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:38,719
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and we're back and guess what, y'all as

494
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: I smashed my microphone about the studio, it's time to

495
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 1: close this episode out with the rapid fire round up.

496
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: I was gonna guess that I should have said it.

497
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 1: I just well, right now, but I told you you

498
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 1: don't get points because you knew it was going to happen.

499
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:55,360
Speaker 1: We went out anyway. Let's let's get to the point though.

500
00:27:55,440 --> 00:28:00,119
Speaker 1: This is the most fast paced rapid questioning segment are

00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: with my first question. Here we go, Kelly. Is Jalen

524
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: Rose's hairline too good to be true? No, it's true.

525
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 1: He's from Michigan. Okay, we like to helines. We can't

526
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: fathom it. It's just so hard to process great legs hair.

527
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 1: It's it's it's all that fresh air. Oh you go

528
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: to the Detroit, Canada border. Oh my gosh, it's just

529
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: like looking at the Sea of tom Born, Midwest where

530
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 1: it's at paper. I gotta tell you love, love, the whole,

531
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: whole whole. Look, he's Jalen Rose has never looked on cool, Yeah,

532
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: but trulier, and he has no reason to avoid baldness

533
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: because he looks great bald the became famous. Can't have

534
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 1: it always, is what we're saying. Kelly, he can't have it.

535
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 1: It's infuriating. But but if anyone's earned it. Yeah, that's

536
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 1: true again. All right, let's keep it moving, Kelly. No

537
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: of that. I mean, you have Twitter for making a

538
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 1: pizza joke or something like that at him one day,

539
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: so you know I shouldn't be on his side, but

540
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: not come on, he'said a tremendous broadcaster and had a

541
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: wonderful player. Yeah, and that hair. So I feel like

542
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: I'm looking at like images from the James Webb telescope. Wait,

543
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 1: does he have like some spicy pizza takes? Yeah? What happened?

544
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: Were getting any techno signatures? Uh? No, I just thought

545
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 1: I made it. I made a joke about his draft

546
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 1: analysis that had him comparing different types of pizzas to

547
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 1: one another, and uh, apparently it's too popular for his tastes.

548
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 1: I thought he g rated and very funny. But you know,

549
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 1: these people are under a lot of stress on draft. Yeah. Uh,

550
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: and Kelly. Look, and while I do love that personal anecdote,

551
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: we really do have to keep things moving, which is

552
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: why I'm gonna ask you this next question. Contender, verse

553
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: is pretender? Are you ready? And this is for the

554
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: title as currently constituted, And the title is the NBA title,

555
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: the National Basketball Association Championships that's currently cost Here we go, Nuggets, Oh,

556
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 1: absolute contender, Okay, the Allans Pelicans, pretender, Wow, I have

557
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: to see. I respect their defensive intensity. You think that

558
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 1: guys like Dison and Trey and or grow between now

559
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: and then? As I can put any team over the top,

560
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 1: and I need to see a little more playmaking from c. J. McCollough.

561
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: It's totally trust Okay, okay, you know what shot making?

562
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 1: Shot making? Yeah, that's why I trust Denver. You know

563
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: that game when are the yok unfurled the other night?

564
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 1: That's just king shot maker. That took longer than some

565
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 1: baseball games. Uh. And also a wise man by the

566
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 1: name of Alice Cooper taught me how to pronounce this.

567
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 1: But the Bucks of Millie Wauke absolute concenter, absolute consenter,

568
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 1: not because of the the What do the bass players

569
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: say the three socialist mayors that they've elected. Uh, they're

570
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: they're they're a champion at the bit because they feel

571
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: like they were wronged by a wet spot in the

572
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: United Center floor. And for this I cannot blame them.

573
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 1: They are they are a frightening basketball team in all regards.

574
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 1: And Brook Lopez is having an outsize defensive season that

575
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 1: I wish we'll get more and more recognition. Um, all right,

576
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: you have the chance to win ten thousand dollars by

577
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 1: making a layup with each hand dollars to make five

578
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: or five free throws, where one thousand dollars to make

579
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: at least four or five from deep. You are shooting

580
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: at the Spurs game that broke the record for attendance,

581
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: and the crowd is not on your side. Um, they

582
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 1: know you're not from Texas. Uh, they they are hostile.

583
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: Which challenge are you taking? I'm gonna have to take

584
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 1: the layouts. I'm sorry. I'm not a shooter. I'm not

585
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: here to shoot. I'm here to set screens and defend

586
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: and rebound. Okay, And it's not my fault that all

587
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: my teammates left me on court here to make tend

588
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 1: the brand. But that's what I want to do. Unless

589
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: the Texans don't get angry. The worst they do is

590
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 1: they call your boss and they're still really friendly to you.

591
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: So I can't you know, I can't really imagine all

592
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: those texts sixty two thousand or whatever it was. That

593
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,040

00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: Oh and it is. It is one of those uh

597
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 1: backyard basketball hoops where you can just like drill it

598
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: against the just throw it as hard as you can

599
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: and then dropped straight up top straight up, stop just

600
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: straight away because it absorbs all the energy because all

601
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 1: the screws are loosens, like my like how full it

602
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 1: just dropped like yeah, you just gotta hit the square man.

00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 1: I gotta say, ZERK didn't want to see me on

604
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: that basketball on my home court then then when because

605
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 1: he would have broken broken the rim after the first

606
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: dunk and then we would have been done. You like

607
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: NBA jam, I love it, Okay, unless you're playing Charlotte,

608
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 1: then I get really upset. It seems like me to me,

609
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 1: they were a little overrated on that game, but you know,

610
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 1: the high powered, high powered you you couldn't usually were

611
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: like you can't have Zoe and LJ. But it's just

612
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: like you gotta be your dues, you know how Just

613
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: to me, they were just you know, too young, but

614
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,720
Speaker 1: that you know, I was an old thirteen year old. Okay,

615
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,360
Speaker 1: well then how about this? Who is your ultimate NBA

616
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 1: J M duo? And don't say m j M Pitt

617
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 1: Come on, it's it's it's the What was the RP

618
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 1: that only had VJ and Horace? Was that a thing?

619
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 1: I think I remember that? Yeah, yeah, I love that

620
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,760
Speaker 1: but that's just modern NBA right there. That's more freeze

621
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: and stretch chords. So you know, if you're looking to

622
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: slam a jam and get you know, on fire and

623
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,359
Speaker 1: the flag on all those nineties things, fine, But if

624
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 1: you're looking to make some points for possession trying to

625
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: look at your offensive efficiency through the riff, you're gonna

626
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 1: go with Courts. You're gonna go with b J gonna

627
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: through a sensible NBA jam game. That's my approach. You

628
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: guys want to slam a jam, go ahead. Yeah, And

629
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 1: I do think it was a statistical advantage to get

630
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:04,839
Speaker 1: on fire personally, but I don't know you can put

631
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,399
Speaker 1: together an all time four man dunk contests. Let's get

632
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: your list Thence Carter, Fence, Carter, Vince Carter, Okay, Freddie Jones,

633
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: Desmond Mason. It would probably be Chris car and Deep

634
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,839
Speaker 1: maybe Mike Finley because I'd like to see those guys

635
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 1: get another dump test chance because if you go him

636
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: on YouTube, you know Mike Finley that the cart wheel.

637
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,320
Speaker 1: Chris Carr was way better than he than he performed.

638
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 1: Fred Jones won it, but he was still better than that,

639
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 1: and doesn't Mason's just fun to watch jump. So I'm

640
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 1: gonna go with those four unheralded times. Love that love

641
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 1: the cart wheel. And here's my question for you. You

642
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: can go back in time and watch any single NBA

643
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: game from throughout history live in person. Which game are

644
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: you choosing to be at? I would go Game two

645
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,400
Speaker 1: of the six Eastern Conference Finals, where up on the

646
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:03,440
Speaker 1: Chicago Bulls came back from any team point episode at

647
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,320
Speaker 1: halftime to overtake him. I feel like that is not

648
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 1: to put any dispersions on Doc Rivers and Bob Neil's

649
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:13,360
Speaker 1: call for TVBS, which was which was wonderful, But you

650
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,320
Speaker 1: know that that seem to be like the front Tuesday

651
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:19,319
Speaker 1: Night from the burgeoning Chicago spring. So probably that one,

652
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: the Wilt one is always enticing. But I don't want

653
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:25,879
Speaker 1: to see a lot of free throws. No one wants

654
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: to see that. I mean, okay, Grady hit free things,

655
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 1: get out of here. Yeah, I want to see Dennis

656
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 1: Scott missing threes and never come back from that. All right.

657
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: And finally, and I want to make it clear to everyone,

658
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 1: I'm not weeping openly at this point. So anybody who

659
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 1: said that I put pressure on the guests by weeping openly.

660
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,800
Speaker 1: I'm hiding the fact that I'm weeping. The question is

661
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 1: Jack or Miles. It's gonna be Jack because of the tees,

662
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: the way they blend into his cheekbones. It's just listening. Yeah,

663
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 1: cool run here. I'm on a freaking run here. Sorry,

664
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:06,879
Speaker 1: I don't know if the viewers can kind of wait,

665
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:10,720
Speaker 1: doesn't it to be consecutive? Stopped crying. It's actually gotten

666
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,280
Speaker 1: worse since we switched to Mike's five times. This is jewels.

667
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 1: Tears are missing it up. He's biting his fists. This

668
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 1: is okay. I don't know if they end every show

669
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,920
Speaker 1: like this, but it's quite spectable. But yeah, Jack, it's

670
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: definitely Jack cool Man. All right, Kelly, Well, thanks so
