14
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: dropped this week. We've had some beauties. On Tuesday, we

15
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,039
Speaker 1: talked with the ringers. Dan Devine did a deep dive

16
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 1: on the eight teams not headed to Disney to play

17
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 1: out the rest of the season. He was fantastic. On Wednesday,

18
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:19,479
Speaker 1: we discussed the NBA's extensive health and safety memo ahead

19
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 1: of resuming play at Disney World. Biggest takeaways, biggest concerns,

20
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 1: why Lee was gonna book the Red Hot Chili Peppers

21
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,199
Speaker 1: to come in and do a live show. So checked

22
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: great gig for sure, and then later on Wednesday, Wednesday afternoon,

23
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: we posted it Trey had an awesome one on one

24
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 1: interview with Disney expert Carl Weisel. Really recommend you check

25
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 1: that one out. She was great. She knows her stuff

26
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: when it comes to Disney World. So it was talking

27
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: about the hotels and possible set up where yeah, there

28
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: might be you know, paying part customers guests there in

29
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: or around some of those hotels where the NBA players

30
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: are really great stuff.

31
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 3: So, speaking of hotel skeets, which one are you choosing

32
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 3: to stay? And you want the fancy one, the Destino,

33
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 3: you want the iconic one, the Floridian, or the chill

34
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,279
Speaker 3: one the yacht club?

35
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: I think I want the yacht club. I want to chill.

36
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I want to be on the water,

37
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: you know. And exactly right, do they play yacht music too?

38
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 3: It's an exclusive for the yacht Rock Playlist, that would imagine.

39
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: I would hope, so I would hope. So, so go

40
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,519
Speaker 1: check out those especially those three podcasts from this week,

41
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: all really fun stuff. All right, let's do it?

42
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 4: What is up? No chunkers? On last week's NBA Predictions

43
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 4: Pod Lee was not into skinny Jokic and seemed to

44
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 4: really lean into the benefit of having some extra padding.

45
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 4: Lee was really trying to come up with someone who

46
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 4: got worse by getting more fit. It didn't come up

47
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 4: with the obvious choice. As a longtime Wolves fan, I

48
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 4: could not allow you to forget the sheer dominance of

49
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 4: thick Kevin Love. I distinctly remember a game in the

50
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 4: twenty ten eleven season where thick keV went for thirty

51
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 4: one and thirty one thirty one points, thirty one boards.

52
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 4: I was a wee high schooler during that season, but

53
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 4: this was the craziest line my meager mind could possibly handle.

54
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 4: I was convinced Love was our next Kevin Garnett and

55
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 4: was about to drag our franchise to the finals, peppering

56
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 4: in more thirty thirty games along the way. Now, Kevin

57
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 4: had a lot of good games, but my perception was

58
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 4: certainly inflated. So my question for you guys, has a

59
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 4: single performance ever giving you way too high of an

60
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 4: opinion of a player. I'll give you a couple of

61
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 4: my favorites as a Timberwolves fan Corey Brewer fifty one

62
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 4: points in twenty fourteen and Moe Williams fifty two points

63
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 4: in twenty fifteen. I don't have a clever sign off.

64
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 4: That's from Matt m Lee once you get this started. Since, yeah,

65
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: Nikolie Jokic lost a lot of weight. It appears during

66
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 4: the hiatus here he was still pretty fit twenty fish

67
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 4: but yeah, now he's skinny Yokic.

68
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

69
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 5: And also that you know Corey Brewer and Mo Williams,

70
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 5: both of those two weird fifty point guys in Minnesota.

71
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 5: Says something about if you want to go to Hey,

72
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,119
Speaker 5: if you want to go to get a fifty point game,

73
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 5: go to Minnesota. But the answer for me is, I'm

74
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 5: going to Game six two thousand and one, wrapped to sixers.

75
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 5: You obviously remember that series. That's when the Raptors in

76
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 5: Philadelphia had that incredible series. Now it's not Vince Carter

77
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 5: who was great, it's Moe Pete who had been up

78
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 5: and down in the playoffs, and he was he was

79
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 5: in the starting lineup and then he was on the

80
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 5: bench and Lenny Welcomes put him back into the starting

81
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 5: lineup for Game six, and he had seventeen points and

82
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 5: seven assists, now not huge numbers, but at the start

83
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 5: of the fourth quarter, the Sixers were only down by

84
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 5: two and Aaron McKee miss is a three that would

85
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 5: have given the lead, instead goes down the other end.

86
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 5: Mopete hits a three. Then the Raptors get a steal

87
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 5: at the other end, and mo hits another three, and

88
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 5: even though it was only an eight point game was

89
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 5: still about eleven minutes to go, it basically kind of

90
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 5: sealed the game for the Raptors, and I knew right

91
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 5: then and there I fell in love with mo Pete.

92
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 5: And there was actually there was actually a second game

93
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 5: because it was the following season early on and I

94
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 5: just started playing fantasy basketball for the first time, and

95
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 5: I didn't get mo Pete in the overnight draft, remember

96
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 5: those you couldn't like you had to sort of the

97
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 5: computer would do the random draft for you overnight. And

98
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 5: the next morning I thought, maybe I can pick him

99
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 5: up off waivers, but he wasn't on the waivers. He

100
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 5: was on another team, and he came ou and started

101
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 5: the season well, and he had a twenty six point

102
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 5: five or seven threes against the Jazz game. And after

103
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 5: that I was like, right, I've got to get Mo Pete.

104
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 5: I've got to go get him. So I swung a

105
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 5: six player deal to a quirement and I went back

106
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 5: into Yahoo history last night and I found the trade.

107
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

108
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I acquired Mo Pete, Jeff mcinneson, Pat Garrety,

109
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 5: and I gave up calm Alone, Stacy Jorgman, and Shannon Anderson.

110
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was incredible.

111
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 5: Now you guys know, when over I go to the

112
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 5: Hawks and the Raptors games, I've got my Mo Pete.

113
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 5: Jersey got two more pet jerseys. So call me Movernie

114
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 5: because I love Mo Pee.

115
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,559
Speaker 1: Last of the line, Oh my god.

116
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 4: Seventeen point seven assists in that games. Wow. Seven assists.

117
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 4: You wouldn't expect.

118
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 5: No, No, he started off the game really well and

119
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 5: then he kind of went quiet. But there was that

120
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 5: fourth quarter was it was just amazing. And yeah, I

121
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 5: love my Pete and I've loved it to this day.

122
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 5: And we saw him in Toronto. I kind of remember

123
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 5: who was a Tray? Was it?

124
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 2: Tray was old forbst.

125
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 4: There we were coming back from doing a show, right

126
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 4: from a live show, and Morris Peterson was hanging with

127
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 4: Bonzie Wells and who was a third was a j.

128
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 2: Y d Yeah, Jyd was it?

129
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: Yeah?

130
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 4: And Bonzie yeah yeah yeah, seventeen point seven. It says, wow,

131
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 4: phenomenal Morse Peterson. Now we we took a fantasy question

132
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 4: I believe last week from my man Rhino Sets and

133
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 4: now we're bringing our own personal fantasy question or fantasy

134
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 4: stories into player. The NBA has got to come back.

135
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 4: The NBA absolutely has to come back.

136
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 1: That This is one of the rare instances where because

137
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: I usually say, no one really cares about your dreams,

138
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: and no one definitely cares about your fantasy basketball team.

139
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: But that trade breakdown was absolutely hearing Pac Guaranty thrown

140
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: into the trade in a three for three.

141
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 3: Trains thrown in. Maybe he was the star of the trade.

142
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 3: Bring the point percentage for sure, but I mean that's

143
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 3: that's definitely a hint. Don't talk to your friends and

144
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 3: family about your fantasy team. Now, wait twenty years, people

145
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 3: will be into it. Then.

146
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that. I can't believe you found it.

147
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 1: I know, I know.

148
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 5: I just thought I wondered because I know that Yahoo

149
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 5: has your history of your team's in there, and then

150
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 5: I just clicked on something and had transactions, and it

151
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 5: was then I'm.

152
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 2: Like, oh my god, there it is.

153
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: We might have like just stumbled upon a new podcast

154
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: we have to record. We all go back into our

155
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: Yahoo's Sports Fantasy Basketball, you know, leagues, and see if

156
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: we can find our best and worst trades. Yeah, it'd

157
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: be something.

158
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 3: Speaking of that, you said you have two Mo Peterson jerseys.

159
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 3: I know you've got like a red jersey, and I

160
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 3: think the other one you have is a sleeveless T shirt.

161
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 3: Was that bought with sleeves or did you just the

162
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 3: side one day the pythons have got to bring.

163
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: No, no, no.

164
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 5: I picked it up in Toronto and one of those

165
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 5: discount shops. I think Mo was actually in the on

166
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 5: the on the hornets at this point. But yeah, I

167
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 5: grabbed it there on the discount right. But now I

168
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 5: wouldn't I wouldn't take the slaves off. I wouldn't take

169
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 5: my If it's slaveless, it's slavelessness.

170
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,119
Speaker 2: It's that slaves. I'm wearing nice sleeves.

171
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 3: You know. I respect the integrity of a shirt for sure.

172
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 2: I love a shosie as much as a slaveless. I

173
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: just whatever, whatever it got well.

174
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 4: I think I've been hugged in that sleeveless shirt. Yeah,

175
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 4: oh for sure. Not a cutoff. Not a cutoff.

176
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: I'll go next. That's a tough one to follow up.

177
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: That's a fantastic story there. I'll go with Brandon Jennings though,

178
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: you guys, I'm sure remember. I don't know if the

179
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 1: listeners do, But Brandon Jennings going for fifty five points

180
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: in just his seventh MB game was pretty damn amazing.

181
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: And I went back and watched the highlights from that game.

182
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: I had forgotten that he actually started like garbage. He

183
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 1: missed his first three shots and was benched for the

184
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 1: first quarter, like basically the rest of the first quarter.

185
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 1: And so he went for fifty five in three quarters.

186
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 1: And he had played really well even up until that

187
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 1: seventh game in his NBA career. He had was averaging

188
00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 1: like twenty one points per game. The Bucks were playing

189
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: really well too. I think there were four and two

190
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: and then they won. This game went to five and two.

191
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: He had dropped thirty two against the Nuggets a few

192
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 1: nights earlier. But the best part is he dropped fifty

193
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: five against his fellow rookie Steph Curry. And you know,

194
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: he just was a cool basketball player, just had the

195
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: way he moved was really neat, like sort of Van

196
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: Exel like I think a little bit. So you know,

197
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 1: I was all in. You know, a guy dropped fifty

198
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: five as a rookie and the way he plays. I

199
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: was like, hell, yeah, this is awesome man. You know

200
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: that was maybe his maybe his apex in his NBA

201
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: career had some you know, spot minutes, her spot moments

202
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 1: here or there. But one other thing I found I

203
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: can't I can't remember if we've done this before. Do

204
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 1: you know Jennings basketball reference nickname s? Anybody remember or

205
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: know it? Because I'm sure as hell never saw this

206
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: the pterodactyl. Ah yeah, it was like what I don't

207
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: ever remember him being called.

208
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 3: That, but there it is on that bad the Raptors

209
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 3: never signed them.

210
00:09:58,520 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: Yeah right right?

211
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 2: When was the last time you saw the Brandon Jennings

212
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 2: like highlights?

213
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: Do you remember? What do you mean?

214
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 2: Like like just that game?

215
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 5: Because I remember what stood out to me from that

216
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 5: game is how the Warriors is just not playing any defense.

217
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, I just watched it, I guess, yeah,

218
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,199
Speaker 1: yeah you remember? Yeah, Sorry, I thought you were setting

219
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,839
Speaker 1: me up for some weird like office joke or something.

220
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, I've given Brent joke. No, because I

221
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 2: remember that.

222
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 5: I remember that game well, I watched highlights of it.

223
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 5: I don't know, you know, not too long ago, I guess.

224
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 5: And it's just like I just remembered, Like the Warriors

225
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 5: are just standing around watching him just.

226
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 2: Jack up all these threes.

227
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 1: I mean he hit a ton of threes.

228
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 2: Yeahah, oh yeah, yeah, he caught fire.

229
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 4: I'll throw mine in here. Has a Raptors tie as well.

230
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 4: Not not Morris Peterson, but Terrence Ross scored fifty one

231
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 4: points as a member of the Toronto Raptors. Terrence Ross,

232
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 4: and he could do that again. He's coming off the

233
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,439
Speaker 4: bench for the Orlando Magic. He's just outside of the

234
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 4: sixth Man of the Year talk. He's been great in

235
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 4: his role. He hasn't started a game the last two

236
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 4: seasons coming off the bench for the Magic, but he's

237
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 4: averaging fifteen points per game. It's perfect in that role,

238
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 4: and I think he's found a spot in the NBA.

239
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 4: And who knows, Orlando could go to the playoffs on

240
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 4: that guy's back. Perhaps he's he's he is, It's perfect

241
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 4: for him and I can see why he scored fifty

242
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 4: one because he can get hot. I don't think I'll

243
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 4: ever get seven assists like Morris Peterson did that day.

244
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 4: He's a fireball. But you know, I want to comment

245
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 4: on the Kevin Love thing of a jig there with

246
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 4: the thirty thirty, think Kevin Love. There's a lot of

247
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 4: people out there who were saying on Twitter after Lee

248
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 4: was talking about Skinny, Oakich said, Kevin Love was better

249
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 4: in Minnesota when he was chubby. He was better, even

250
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 4: like a raptor like Chris Bosh. His numbers were better

251
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 4: when he was solo. But you know he got skinny

252
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 4: and then was able to win a championship even though

253
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 4: he was subdent for Richard Jefferson. Yeah, yeah, he was

254
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 4: still very good when he got his thirties and thirties.

255
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 4: That convinced Lebron to say, let's give up our number

256
00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 4: one pick and I'll come back to Cleveland. Because twenty fourteen,

257
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 4: when Kevin Love was also kind of ready to leave Minnesota,

258
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 4: Lebron had just timed out with Lebron going back to Cleveland,

259
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 4: but he needed somebody to come along, and he saw

260
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 4: the thick Kevin Love scoring points, so that helped him

261
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,839
Speaker 4: go back to Cleveland. They traded Wiggins for Kevin Love,

262
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 4: but then Skinny Love got the championship, even though Richard

263
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 4: Jefferson subbed in for him. Yeah, skinny skinny kay Love

264
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 4: was still pretty good. And he's on the down side

265
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 4: of his career, I guess, and then in his thirties here,

266
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 4: but still can get a thirty for thirty.

267
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: Yes, thick keV started getting turning into skinny keV in

268
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: Minnesota too. Definitely, that's the part that's like, you know,

269
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: sort of forgotten hearing this email. It wasn't just when

270
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 1: he went to Cleveland where he suddenly he was this

271
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 1: skinny dude that was happening in Minnesota. He was just

272
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: huge at the beginning of his career.

273
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and if it comes to Game seven of the

274
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 3: NBA Finals and your garden, Steph Curry, trust me, you're

275
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 3: gonna want skinny Kevin Love out there, not the rookie

276
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 3: Kevin Love blubber in his way all around at the

277
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 3: top of the key. For me, a guy that I

278
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 3: invested too much in after single game was Anthony Morrow.

279
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 3: He had thirty seven in his first career start as

280
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 3: an undrafted rookie, he had twenty five the next game.

281
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 3: I'm like, this guy is gonna be incredible. We're looking

282
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 3: at the new Vashon Leonard here.

283
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: People.

284
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 3: He led the NBA in three point percentage his rookie year,

285
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 3: and so every time a team would sign him I

286
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 3: would I'd be like, oh my goodness, they got Anthony Morrow.

287
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 3: This is really gonna help. This guy is a knockdown shooter,

288
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 3: and he was a great shooter. But basically every team

289
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 3: would put him out there, and if he wasn't making threes,

290
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 3: he was giving up a whole bunch of points on

291
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 3: the other end of the court. But he ended up

292
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 3: having a long career. He was a fine player, but

293
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 3: you know, he never reached that vaunted Vashan Leonard status.

294
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 1: No, no, that's a hell of a benchmark to reach,

295
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: for sure. All right, our next one here, this one's

296
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: really for you, Trey. This is a good one. Hey, howdy, Hi, No,

297
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: young bucks. I've been spending a lot of time in

298
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: Lockdown doing some online shopping. As I'm a basketball fan.

299
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: A lot of what draws my interest is nineties championship items,

300
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: including merch from all six of the Bowls Championship every

301
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: time a piece comes up, I assess whether or not

302
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: I could justify buying that particular year's merch for instance,

303
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: Oh it's their first title, or oh it's their last title.

304
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 1: And it sort of realized who in the world's favorite

305
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: bulls championship would be either the second or the fifth ones?

306
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: Do people really care about those particular titles? So the

307
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: question is which nineties bulls championship do you care about

308
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: the least? Turned it in, messed around, failed them. That's

309
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: from Sam a little twist to this question. Not your

310
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: favorite nineties bulls championship the one you care about the least.

311
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: What do you think? Trey?

312
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 3: Well, Sam pretty much nailed it. The second and the

313
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 3: fifth titles are the ones that get overlooked, probably just

314
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 3: because they're in the middle of both three peats. The

315
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 3: advantage that the second title has over the fifth one

316
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 3: is that the nineteen ninety two Bulls might be the

317
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 3: best bulls team that existed during these During this eight

318
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 3: year run that they had, you know, Michael Jordan was

319
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 3: pretty much at his physical peak. They'd just come off

320
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 3: of the first championship where he had kind of ascended

321
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 3: to widely recognized as the best player in the league

322
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 3: status and they were ready to take over. Ever, they

323
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 3: were just at their peak in nineteen ninety two. So

324
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 3: for me, if I'm looking at each title, it goes

325
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 3: ninety one very awesome, it was the first one. Ninety

326
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 3: two that's the best team. Ninety three for me, that's

327
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 3: probably my favorite of all of these championship teams. Ninety

328
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 3: six is the greatest, ninety eight is the last. Ninety

329
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 3: seven what do you say? Sixty nine wins nice and

330
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 3: it's pretty funny too. The one thing that is very

331
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 3: notable about the nineteen ninety seven season, even as we

332
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 3: saw in the Last Dance, they kind of skipped over

333
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 3: ninety seven season except for the flu game, which we

334
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 3: have now found out is the poison pizza game. So

335
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 3: I don't know. For me, it is probably between ninety

336
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 3: two and ninety seven. But ninety two the team is

337
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 3: so good, and I mean it's not like ninety seven

338
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 3: is a bad team. That's the second most wins the

339
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 3: Bulls ever had in a season, but it definitely gets

340
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 3: lost and I think it's probably a little bit they

341
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 3: played the Jazz in the ninety seven finals and then

342
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 3: again in the ninety eight finals that is wild.

343
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: You just saying that out loud. I had to be

344
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: reminded they won sixty nine games nice the year after

345
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: seventy two wins, and you're right, it's like.

346
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 3: And it came down to the very last game too.

347
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 3: I think Pippen had a three pointer in in the

348
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 3: last game of the season to beat the Knicks. They

349
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 3: were down by two and Pippin missed like a last

350
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 3: second three pointer that would have given them seventy wins,

351
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 3: would have tied the record for a home forty to

352
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 3: one record, but just rimmed out.

353
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 4: Well, all right, next one here, evening, gentlemen. Longtime fan

354
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 4: got a who says no for you guys, a base

355
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 4: deal of John Collins from the Hawks for Lowry Markinen

356
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 4: of the Bulls. It gives the Hawks another offensive option

357
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 4: and spacing with Capella in the lane. If Markinan wants

358
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 4: out of Chicago gives the Bulls a different high upside

359
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 4: big Maybe the Hawks don't want to pay Collins that

360
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 4: think Marketing's fit would be better. Thanks for keeping the

361
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 4: pods coming. That is from Kris. This interesting question, Chris.

362
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 4: It's the couple twenty seventeen draftees here market In seventh,

363
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 4: Collins nineteenth, so both up for a big extension potentially

364
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 4: this coming off season. Three years in the league average

365
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 4: about the same points per game their second year nineteen

366
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 4: points per game. But then Collins skyrocketed in year three,

367
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 4: went up to around twenty two, and marketing went down.

368
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 4: So everybody's stock of Collins is probably higher than lowry

369
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 4: marketing because of that year three. But I think both

370
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 4: teams say no. Now, you guys might disagree, but I

371
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 4: think the Hawks say no because they want to see

372
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 4: what they have. Trey Jung loves playing with John Collins.

373
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 4: Collins just had his best year. It's kind of understandable

374
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 4: why he'd say no. But on the bull side, I

375
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 4: think they would still say, hey, you know what, his

376
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 4: value isn't as low. Maybe we can sneak in a

377
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 4: bit of a lower extension right now coming off that

378
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 4: ho hum year under Jim Boylan, and I don't think

379
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 4: they've seen a ceiling. They want to see what they have.

380
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 4: He's a seven footer, he is bigger than John Collins.

381
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 4: I think he's a better defender than John Collins, and

382
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 4: he just had a bit of a whole hum year.

383
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 4: I think they want to see what this number seven

384
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 4: pick has come enough again a bad year with Jim Boylan,

385
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 4: but the year before he was showing what he had.

386
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,120
Speaker 4: So I don't know if you guys agree, but I'm

387
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 4: saying both would say no at this point.

388
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a tough one with marketing because I think

389
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 5: he needs a change of scenery, because I think he's

390
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 5: a good talented player, but he's in a bad situation

391
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,880
Speaker 5: under a bad coach there in Chicago. But I think

392
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 5: if you're the Hawks, I don't think you pull the

393
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 5: trigger either on this deal. I think you want to

394
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 5: see what you have in John Collins. John Collins, if

395
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 5: he can spread the floor a little bit and become

396
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 5: a better defender, then I think you want to hang

397
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 5: on to him because he and Tray have got some

398
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 5: good chemistry right now, and Lowry is going to be

399
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 5: more a flaw spreader. I don't think he's going to

400
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 5: be the guy who bangs inside as much. So it

401
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 5: is a bit of sort of you know, it's they're similar.

402
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 5: You know, they've both got a lot of potential, but

403
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:57,719
Speaker 5: you need to sort of see a little bit more

404
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 5: of it first. If I'm the Hawks again, based on

405
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 5: just what we've seen so far, I would hang on

406
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 5: to Collins.

407
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 2: Is he gonna get the max?

408
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: Maybe?

409
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 5: Maybe not, but with market and there's just a little

410
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 5: bit of a question mark as to whether or not

411
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,880
Speaker 5: he has got the wrong environment and if someone else

412
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 5: can get the best out of him, or if he's

413
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 5: just maybe not that good. I mean, I yeah, I'm

414
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 5: a little torn. I like him, but I think we

415
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 5: need to just see him in a different team. But

416
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 5: I certainly if I'm the Hawks, I wouldn't give up

417
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 5: John Collins for him right now.

418
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm right there with you, guys. I would be

419
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 3: thrilled if the Bulls could get John Collins for Lowry

420
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 3: markin In, which makes me think that the Hawks probably

421
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 3: wouldn't want to do it. The Bulls would be getting

422
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 3: the best player today in the in the trade if

423
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 3: Collins were to go to Chicago and Larry Markinen has

424
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:44,879
Speaker 3: had a little bit of trouble stand on the court

425
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 3: early in his career. But if you're if you're Travis Schlank,

426
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 3: you can at least make the pitch of saying, here's

427
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 3: a guy with a little bit more perimeter based game.

428
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 3: You know, Trey Young and Clint Capella will be running

429
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 3: the pick and roll a little bit more this year.

430
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 3: You can you can see the fit there if you're

431
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,640
Speaker 3: the Hawks. But task to saying, I'm sure the Bulls

432
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 3: are hoping that market and ceiling is higher. You know,

433
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 3: I think it wouldn't be outlandish to believe that John

434
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 3: Collins has reached his potential. He's a really solid player

435
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 3: and he's I think better than most people expected coming

436
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 3: out of college. Whereas Market and you see him and

437
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 3: you just hope that a coaching change could get him

438
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 3: to reach his potential, just like Collins has.

439
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: Yep, I think you guys knock that one out of

440
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: the park. I agree, it's a tough one. I'm like,

441
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 1: just even looking at this long term, I'm like, who

442
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 1: has a better career, John Collins or Lowry Markinen Like,

443
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: But at the end of it all, you know, fifteen

444
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: twenty years from now, I have no idea. I mean,

445
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: I could you could convince me either one of them

446
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 1: either like laps the other one in terms of like

447
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: success an All Star and All nbas and whatever success

448
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: going deep in the playoffs for either of them. I

449
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: have no clue because I do like both of them

450
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: as the players and the potential within both of them

451
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: to reach pretty incredible heights. So that's a tough one.

452
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 1: Collins for lowry market. And let's hear from you guys

453
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 1: out there. Let us know on Twitter at No dunk Sinc.

454
00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 1: Next one, Hey, No Jams. After listening to your podcast

455
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: about fan cutouts in Orlando, I finally solved how to

456
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: replicate home court advantage. Let's say it's Raptors nets in

457
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 1: the first round. For games one, two, five, and seven,

458
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: all the cutouts will have Raptors' shirts. For games three, four,

459
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,239
Speaker 1: and six, they'll have Nets shirts. You could do this

460
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:21,360
Speaker 1: for every series except a Lakers Clippers Conference Finals, where

461
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: the Clippers home games would have to be seventy percent

462
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 1: Lakers shirts. Hio. That's from Ryan in Toronto. Basically, what

463
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 1: Ryan is pitching here is a bunch of Lee Ellis's

464
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: in the stands. Those are the cutouts. They just flip

465
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: back and forth between the home court advantage here. I mean,

466
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 1: people are have a lot of opinions about cardboard cutouts,

467
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: is what I've come to learn. This is why we

468
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,160
Speaker 1: included it. Like, I'm sort of amazed how much the

469
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 1: fans think any of this matters to the players. I

470
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,360
Speaker 1: don't think it matters a lick. I don't think they

471
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,919
Speaker 1: care it all. We'll notice it all, Like it's not

472
00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: gonna because somebody's wearing a mo Peep jersey for this

473
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: cardboard kind of it's not gonna affect you know, Joe

474
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: Harris's three point shooting. I'm sorry, it's just not the

475
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: way it's gonna go. But Lee, what do you think?

476
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I think it's economical if you just have

477
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 5: the guy who can basically just twist.

478
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 2: Around, you know.

479
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, then then then he's cheering on the other team.

480
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 5: But yeah, it's funny you mentioned it, Like I'm the

481
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 5: same people have got so much to talk about with

482
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 5: these cardboard cutouts, as if we're going to care about

483
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 5: those after the first couple of days.

484
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:28,880
Speaker 2: Once games are back, no one's gonna care at all.

485
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 2: We just want to see the basketball.

486
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 5: So but yeah, I mean, he's basically just throwing in

487
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 5: a little Lakers Clippers gag there. I wanted to get

488
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 5: that one off. But yeah, I don't know what the

489
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 5: NBA should do, but if I was them, this would

490
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 5: certainly be low low low on the list of priorities

491
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 5: to get ready before the game start.

492
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: You can like see it now too. There would be

493
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,400
Speaker 1: a controversy where like they forgot to put the net

494
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 1: shirts on the codeboard, and like the Raptors had an advantage.

495
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,640
Speaker 1: Joh Man, I could see the headlines.

496
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 3: Now to hire somebody to sit behind the baskets with

497
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,919
Speaker 3: uh with the cardboard cutouts to move them back and

498
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 3: forth very quickly when the opposing team is shooting free things.

499
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, that's right. Anyway, keep the emails coming

500
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:12,719
Speaker 1: about the cardboard cutters.

501
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 3: We do.

502
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: We do enjoy them. It's silly as they might be.

503
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 4: Hey, it sounds like a good idea to me. Get

504
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 4: those colors in there for the home teams, get the

505
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 4: opposing ones in there. You know what I like is

506
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 4: that if you do zoom out and you do see

507
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 4: the quote unquote fans, at least the colors will be right. Yeah,

508
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 4: I think it'll just help. I don't I don't care

509
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 4: about the in game experience, but I do like seeing

510
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 4: those colors. You know, when you when you see a

511
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 4: playoff game and they've got the striped sections of the

512
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 4: team's colors, it looks great on television. I think the

513
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 4: colors will look good on TV if they get it

514
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 4: right if they get a nice solid printer, not some

515
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 4: cheap printer that you know, it's gotta gotta fade on

516
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 4: those on those on those blacks. I want a nice

517
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 4: midnight Brooklyn Net black on those jerseys.

518
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: And why don't we just virtually had the fans, then

519
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: we don't need these cardboard If you're if you're just

520
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: worried about the yeah, the television experience watching it at home,

521
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 1: then yeah, put them in virtually.

522
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 3: Have you seen the Bundesliga games? I guess not.

523
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:14,440
Speaker 4: They're great, They're so good, actually they're And and then

524
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 4: the next topic that people like talk about is the

525
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 4: piping in of the of the crowd noise. And there

526
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 4: was a Wall Street Journal article saying that people are

527
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,919
Speaker 4: generally liking the piping in of noise coming through their broadcast,

528
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 4: coming through the television. And it's not that they just

529
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,679
Speaker 4: pipe in forgive me JD. But you know what we

530
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 4: do for say what where we just throw in a

531
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,719
Speaker 4: bed track of basketball bedtrack, but they throw in the

532
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 4: pre recorded sound from a previous game, and it sounds

533
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 4: even sometimes the previous game that those two teams played,

534
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 4: and it sounds really really real, and it sounds good,

535
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 4: and I think it. I think it does add something. Oh, no,

536
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 4: television experience.

537
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 1: We we already talked about this. I'm definitely uh in

538
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 1: team audio camp being more important to the television product.

539
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: I think it really, he really is, So I could

540
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: see that adding a lot to the experience. Less I

541
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: care less about a cardboard cutout. But yeah, I mean

542
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: we talked about the announcers and all that, and if

543
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 1: they're gonna be there and if they can keep up

544
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 1: the energy and piping in that stuff. It's it's weird

545
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 1: when it's dead, just dead sounding. It's it just takes

546
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: away from the game oddly enough. So yeah, maybe that's

547
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 1: something they'll do if they're two K noises or not

548
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 1: I guess, or previously recorded noises. I don't know.

549
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 4: Hey, Lebron said he doesn't want to play in an

550
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 4: arena with no fans. I think after this he's gonna

551
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 4: say I don't want to play in an arena without

552
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 4: cardboard cutouts. They just add something till my next one. Here, Hello,

553
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 4: po dunks. I'm watching a highlight reel of underrated plays

554
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 4: from the past couple seasons, and I was pleasantly surprised

555
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,719
Speaker 4: to see Ben macklamore make the reel. I honestly hadn't

556
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 4: realized he's still in the league and putting up decent numbers.

557
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 4: When he was drafted, I swore he was going to

558
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 4: be what the Aaron Fox is now, but has since

559
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 4: faded into just being all right. He plays for the

560
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 4: Houston Rockets. By the way, if you didn't know Ben macklamore,

561
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:04,199
Speaker 4: my question, rather than naming underrated players, who are your

562
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:08,679
Speaker 4: most favorite average players from the past or present? You

563
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:13,439
Speaker 4: think of the average players, it's Phil in the plane, Illinois.

564
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, shout out to displanes.

565
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 3: Hopefully the flooding of the river is under control there.

566
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 3: I know it is pretty bad about a month ago.

567
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 3: The river. They're always floods. That's why it's called displanes. Anyways,

568
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 3: if you're talking about average players, there's a couple of

569
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 3: qualities you need. You want more from the player when

570
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 3: you have them on your team, but you're still happy

571
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,360
Speaker 3: to have them. They're gonna have some star flashes where

572
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 3: they have really huge games, but they're also gonna have

573
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 3: some games where you're like, where is this guy? But

574
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 3: most important to me a boring, boring name. You gotta

575
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 3: have a boring name. For this. So I've got a

576
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 3: current guy and a former guy who I was thrilled

577
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 3: to see when I looked up on Basketball Reference. Both

578
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 3: had career peers of fifteen, the definition of average. Here

579
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 3: are your players, George Hill, Joe Smith.

580
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw in to Gary Heris, Dude, here you go.

581
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 1: He's he's got a PR career thirteen point one. But

582
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: I think he fits your criteria there, Tray, Yeah, those

583
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 1: are those are good. Those are really good. George Hill,

584
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: Joe Smith, and and Gary Harris.

585
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 5: I don't have this guy's PR. But Ryan Anderson basically

586
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 5: was pretty average. All he would do is shoot threes

587
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 5: and that was it. He was terrible as a defender,

588
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 5: couldn't really rebound, couldn't really do anything.

589
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,120
Speaker 2: But man, he could light it up every now and again.

590
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 5: And you'd see those games where it just go for

591
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 5: thirty five, hit seven or eight threes and he looked great,

592
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 5: but man he was. He did nothing else on the court.

593
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 1: A career PR of sixteen point five.

594
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 2: Ryan perfect. He's got the name, he's got the PR,

595
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 2: so he fits.

596
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: Right in there. He did win an award, though.

597
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 2: Is that most most improved?

598
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 1: Wasn't It was that yeah, that's right.

599
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll throw in a couple. Evan Turner I think

600
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 4: is so mister solid average, just does everything, okay, but

601
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 4: he can do it. He can do everything. And branded

602
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:02,640
Speaker 4: bass another one not too tall, plays the mid range,

603
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 4: can't can't get out too far from the hoop. That

604
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 4: does everything solid.

605
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: I'll tell you right now, a lot of those names

606
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: have been in some fantasy basketball thrown in a sweeten

607
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 1: the pot a little bit. I'll give you Ryan Anderson.

608
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: He wants some three point shooting on your team.

609
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 5: Oh, if you want to talk fantasy plays like that,

610
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 5: that's a Marcus Fiza right there on the book.

611
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, way back in the day. All right, next

612
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,360
Speaker 1: one here, hey, all thrunks. Blake Griffin's career has been

613
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: quite unexpected and turbulent, with many ups and downs, but

614
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: what is really striking is how his reputation and persona

615
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: has appeared to change in his two different teams. When

616
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 1: he was in LA, he was known for his high

617
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 1: flying dunks and showtime highlots indicative for Hollywood. Now in Detroit,

618
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: he's doing more of a working man's game, mostly below

619
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: the rim and accomplished through grit and determination rather than

620
00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: flash indicative of the blue collar Midwest. Of course, this

621
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: is due to his deteriorating health and age, but I

622
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: also find it fascinating how the on court realignment reflected

623
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: the off court setting. Can you think of any other

624
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 1: players whose reputation changed dramatically in a way that aligned

625
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: with a change of teams and or cities. That interesting

626
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: question is from Ben Lead. Had somebody come to mind?

627
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, so when I think of the grittin Grind

628
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 5: Grizzlies as four players that pop out, Mark Gasol, Mike Conley,

629
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 5: Tony Allen, and Zach Randolph and Randolph, Zach is my

630
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 5: answer here because when he went to Memphis, he kind

631
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 5: of had started bouncing around his career already, from Portland

632
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 5: to the Knicks and the Clippers, and he was a

633
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 5: bit of a malcontent that, you know, a guy who

634
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 5: could score, but he didn't really seem to fit anywhere.

635
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 5: And now I can't think of him as anything other

636
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 5: than a Grizzly really for his career, because when he

637
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 5: went there, he became this lovable member, you know, who

638
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 5: fit the grittin grind mentality perfectly. You know, he's sort

639
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 5: of a soft, gentle guy, but he used to like

640
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 5: to get into it as well physically, you know, he

641
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 5: used to use his body to go on score and

642
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 5: that was the thing about his scoring, Like for a

643
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 5: guy who could really not jump, he was an amazing

644
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 5: player to be able to go in and get baskets anytime.

645
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 5: We want a classic dinkers and dumpers guy, so you know,

646
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 5: And and there was there's a couple of moments there

647
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 5: where you see him interacting with fans. Is that one

648
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 5: with the kid that the down syndrome kid there where

649
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 5: it's just like your heart melts every time you see it.

650
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 5: And I just think that was sort of what summed

651
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 5: up Zach, you know, like a tough as nails competitor,

652
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 5: but there this gentle, cuddly, lovable guy as well, And

653
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,959
Speaker 5: he certainly wasn't that when he arrived in Memphis. It

654
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 5: was more like, you know, he could end up playing

655
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 5: for another five or six different teams before his career

656
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 5: was over. But now I think of him totally as

657
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 5: a grizzly h.

658
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: That's a really good one.

659
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 3: Oh, let me ask you one. I don't know if

660
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't know where I actually stand

661
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 3: on this one. How about when Carmelo Anthony went from

662
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 3: Denver to New York, did his reputation change at all?

663
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 3: I mean, he was certainly a rising star when he

664
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 3: was with the Nuggets, you know, was leading under the playoffs,

665
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 3: they had that great nine run, and then he goes

666
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 3: to New York where he gets to true superstar status,

667
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 3: but was never able really to get a winning team

668
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 3: around him except for a couple of seasons here and there.

669
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 3: So I don't know, I mean, did his reputation really

670
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 3: change or was we kind of still the same guy

671
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 3: all the way through?

672
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's tough. I think my answer is similar to

673
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,479
Speaker 1: that too, because I'm not convinced it's great either. Rashid

674
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: Wallace sort of was always sort of the same guy,

675
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 1: but his reputation of course changed, like you know, leading

676
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: the league in text and all that in Portland and

677
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 1: bouncing around a little and of course landing then in

678
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: Detroit and fitting in perfectly with that sort of blue

679
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: collar again type team, and then it was just like

680
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: now it just makes more sense him there, you know,

681
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: as almost like a pseudo leader. I don't know, Yeah,

682
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: it's sort of like Carmelo. It's not a great answer.

683
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: I don't think but there's a part of it that

684
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 1: maybe checks out.

685
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 2: You know, what about what about Carl Lowry even for you?

686
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 5: I mean yeah, yeah, like he was on his way

687
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 5: out and no one was really going to miss him

688
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 5: until that tray got rescinded or fell through. And now

689
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 5: he's like, retire his number and give him a statue.

690
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 5: You know, he's loved in Toronto now, and you know,

691
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 5: he didn't want to be there when he first arrived,

692
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 5: and and but then things turned around for him. It

693
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 5: wasn't wasn't sort of straight away, but eventually he got

694
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 5: there and now he's like he's king of the city.

695
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: You know, no true, and that sort of fits in

696
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 1: a city Lake Toronto, exact with me. But Maple Leaf

697
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 1: fans that they loved like those scrappy guys, like the

698
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: undersized guys that puts their body on the line, you

699
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: know like whatever. I mean, I'm not a hockey genius

700
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: or anything like whatever, Like the city loves those guys.

701
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: And that's sort of Lowry, is that sort of version.

702
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 5: He became an All NBA player and All Star just

703
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 5: through his work ethic and his hustle and yeah, yeah,

704
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 5: you know, so yeah, all.

705
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 4: Right, next one here, good day, no flunks today. I

706
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 4: had myself a Leelis day. I went for a walk

707
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 4: in thongs double pluggers lely That is that another term

708
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 4: for sandals?

709
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's what they call them in like

710
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 5: Sydney and New South Wales. Around there in Victoria, we don't.

711
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 5: We just call them straight up thongs. But uh, you

712
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 5: know the ones where you just slide your foot in.

713
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 5: There's nothing at the back there and just there's the

714
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 5: plug between the big foot and the you know samp.

715
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, flip flop.

716
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay. While wearing a retro jersey ninety six Sonics

Speaker 4: debt left shrimp, I popped a pack of cards and

718
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 4: cooked some bacon on the bobby. I'd have bought some

719
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 4: ribs off the street, but I couldn't find any. Cheers

720

Speaker 4: to Ulie you Ozzie bloody legend. Is there a question, yeah,

721
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 4: bloody end, my question, if you could live a day

722
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 4: in the life of any NBA player, who would it be?

723
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 4: And why crank it up? Love your guts, ripper. That's

724
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 4: from Mick in Tasmania, Australia.

725
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 2: Thanks for sending that in, Uncle Mick, appreciate it.

726
00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. So in Tasmania they call thongs. Oh yeah, dump

727
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: pluggers lately. Yeah yeah, Well I'll answer this first. Yeah,

728
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: if you could live the day in the life of

729
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 1: NBA player, I want to fly, guys, I would I

730
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:13,919
Speaker 1: just would love to be able to, you know, jump

731
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 1: forty inches in the air and throw down. So I

732
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: want a guy that looks like he's just he's just

733
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 1: walking on air. And that's to me in the league. Currently,

734
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: no one looks as cool and appears at times to

735
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: jump higher than Derek Jones Jr. So I would want

736
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 1: to be him for a day and just be able

737
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:35,400
Speaker 1: to dunk like crazy and jump over people and you know,

738
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: catch lobs off the glass and go between my legs

739
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. That's you know, you could pick

740
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: a guy that's like a sharp shot like Steph Curry.

741
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 1: You can pick You go different million different ways with

742
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: this one. But I want to I want to be

743
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 1: able to soar. Give me Derek Jones Junior your airplane jobs.

744
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 4: I'd want to be Nick Young. Remember Swaggy Pete. That

745
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 4: guy just doesn't give a sheet. He is just so carefree.

746
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 4: Even this week he's looking for an NBA job. There's

747
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 4: a video of him practicing shooting because he's ready to

748
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,319
Speaker 4: be picked up, and teams can pick up guys who

749
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,880
Speaker 4: weren't on a team this season, like Nick Young for Orlando.

750
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 4: So he's firing away in this video, and he's wearing

751
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 4: these big, baggy shorts. They would sort of look like

752
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 4: Zuba shorts. They're not basketball shorts. They've got pockets. It's

753
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 4: pretty clear the guy's performing for a job, and he's

754
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,479
Speaker 4: performing in these shorts that belong nowhere near a basketball court.

755
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 4: But that's how Nick Young rolls. And he's going to

756
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,800
Speaker 4: get a job because of it, because he's so confident

757
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 4: in his shorts wearing and his shot making ability. And

758
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,399
Speaker 4: he was banging him home too. I think somebody will

759
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 4: pick him up just to have him on their bench.

760
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good question. I mean Nick Young was

761
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 3: a talented player. He's thirty five years old now. But

762
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 3: we've got these expanded rosters for the Orlando restart. You

763
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 3: wonder what kind of players that you know have kind

764
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 3: of been on the fringes of the league. We'll get

765
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 3: pulled back in just to be available for these extra games.

766
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 4: Wow, it's thirty five. I thought he was a lot younger,

767
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 4: just because he's so youthful and jeeful.

768
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, what you guys got Lee well.

769
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 5: Along with same sort of lines era as a nick

770
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 5: young guy who really doesn't seem to get too worked

771
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 5: up over everything. Steven Adams, I think I think he'd

772
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 5: be great to be for a day because you know,

773
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 5: like right now, he actually seems happy and content and

774
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 5: enjoys life and nobody else does. And he just seems

775
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 5: to be pretty chilled about everything, you know, like he

776
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 5: had a good couple of runs there with the Thunder

777
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,880
Speaker 5: and they're back in the contention again this year, and

778
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 5: he just seems to me the sort of guy who

779
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:34,479
Speaker 5: doesn't really get too bothered by too much.

780
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:35,879
Speaker 2: And that is.

781
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: You now, you basically are Steven Adams wants to grow

782
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 1: eleven inches, that's all you're saying.

783
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:47,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, Adams, Well that's a compliment. I love Stevie. I

784
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 2: think he's great, you know, but.

785
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,840
Speaker 1: You're all seem stressed out to me, man.

786
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 2: Like, well, you know, everyone's got.

787
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 1: A dog on the bow. I guarantee you Stephen Adams

788
00:36:58,480 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 1: do the same thing.

789
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 2: I know.

790
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:01,840
Speaker 5: And I wonder I wonder if he went back to

791
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 5: New Zealand or if he stayed in Oklahoma City. Well

792
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 5: the shut down was on.

793
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.

794
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 3: I don't know.

795
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 1: What about you, Trey Boban for sure?

796
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 3: Oh, you're the modern day Andre the Giant. Everything you

797
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 3: do would be awesome, Like going swimming as Boban awesome,

798
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,320
Speaker 3: going hiking through the woods as Boban, that'd be awesome.

799
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,359
Speaker 3: Seeing what you can fit in, seeing what you can reach.

800
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 3: The guy's seven foot four, three hundred pounds. Andre the

801
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 3: Giant wasn't even seven foot four, but he was listed

802
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,720
Speaker 3: at seven foot four. You're the real Andrea the Giant.

803
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, flying as Bobon maybe not as awesome.

804
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. I would like to have a local

805
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 3: day as Bobons.

806
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 1: We got a lot more questions still tackle here, but

807
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,400
Speaker 1: before we do, a quick word from our sponsors.

808
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,879
Speaker 2: Routines. We all have them, we all need them.

809

Speaker 5: It's what keeps us on track like a balanced beam

810
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 5: of life. One of the most important routines is our

811
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,720
Speaker 5: personal hygiene practice shower, wash, scrub, and rinse. It's a staple,

812
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 5: and for some a post shower facial moisturizer too. Our

813
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,600

Speaker 4: Can't wait?

879
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 1: Okay, next one? Hey No Dunks Gang. Firstly, thank you

880
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:27,320
Speaker 1: so much for keeping the podcast going during the pandemic.

881
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: It keeps my walks to and from work interesting. Secondly,

882
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 1: I'm from England. Here football also known as soccer Rain's

883
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,640
Speaker 1: supreme and basketball really is a minor sport. Due to

884
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,280
Speaker 1: time differences, it can be tough to catch NBA games.

885
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,680
Speaker 1: I've been following basketball for about four years now and

886
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,360
Speaker 1: the team I chose to support is the Detroit Pistons

887
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: because I'm a big fan of Blake Griffin. Few of

888
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 1: my friends have started following basketball after watching the Last Dance,

889
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 1: so the next natural step is for them to pick

890
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 1: a team to try and follow my question, what would

891
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,359
Speaker 1: your critter be to picking a new team? And who

892
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: would it be? Keep it classy crew that is from

893
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 1: Connor all the way over in England tasks what do

894
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 1: you think? We get this question? You know frequently about

895
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 1: I'm new to the sport or why should I or

896
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 1: how do I pick a team? What do you think?

897
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:15,879
Speaker 1: For Connor's buddies here?

898
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 4: Well, I'm gonna tell you who to pick right now

899
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,720
Speaker 4: changes every year. You pick somebody that's a team that's bad,

900
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 4: very important. You want a team on the upswing, you

901
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 4: don't want to be a front runner. Pick the Minnesota

902
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 4: Timberwolves right now, and after going through the delete eight

903
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 4: the teams that aren't going to Orlando with Dan Devine

904
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 4: on our pot a few days ago, he convinced me

905
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 4: of this. It's it's you also want a team that's

906
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 4: not a storied franchise. You know, you can be the

907
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 4: hipster basketball fan. You can be there when it's not

908
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:51,720
Speaker 4: as as pristine or as rewarding as you know having

909
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 4: gone through all these championships. So get them on the

910
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 4: on the ground level. But it's also a fun team

911
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,360
Speaker 4: to watch. Their offense is going to be incredible. I

912
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 4: forgot for I got some of the numbers that they

913
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 4: put up. With D'Angelo Russell on the floor, adding Karl

914
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,239
Speaker 4: Anthony Towns when he's healthy, and Malik Beasley, it's going

915
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 4: to be a fun watch, especially because they've got a

916
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 4: great broadcast crew Dave Benz and Jim Peterson on the mic.

917
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,719
Speaker 4: And I think they could get good very soon with

918
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 4: Gerson Rosas he's got a vision in the front office.

919
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 4: I think they've got all the components for a new

920
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 4: fan to jump on board.

921
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

922
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 5: No, I think you want to pick a team that

923
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,560
Speaker 5: you know is consistently sort of close without being like

924
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 5: a total bandwagon team. And they've got a star right now.

925
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,800
Speaker 5: It's the Portland Trailblazers. They've always got really cool uniforms,

926
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:37,960
Speaker 5: they've always got a really cool court. They're an easy

927
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 5: team to cheer for, and again they're not like you know,

928
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 5: you're not going to be jumping on them where they're

929
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:43,759
Speaker 5: just about to win a championship. There could be some

930
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:45,920
Speaker 5: lean years ahead as well, but I think the Blazers

931
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 5: are always competitive and just a fun team to cheer for,

932
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 5: So that would be the team that I would.

933
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 4: Pick for me.

934
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 3: You just need to choose who you like better between

935
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 3: Zion Williamson and Luca Dances. If you like Zion, be

936
00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 3: a Pelicans fan. If you like Luca you're a Mavericks fan.

937
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 3: Both gonna be superstars. Both of their teams are solid

938
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,439
Speaker 3: but not great. You're still going to be early, they're

939
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 3: still on the upswing, and you're getting in while they're young.

940
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:09,920
Speaker 3: You're gonna be happy. If you choose either of those guys.

941
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 1: I would throw one more name and team into what

942
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,799
Speaker 1: you're saying there, Trey, throw Ja Morant in the mix too.

943
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: Maybe you're a Jamrant fan, and then you can get

944
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,880
Speaker 1: on the Grizzlies bandwagon right now. But I like that idea, Zion,

945
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,319
Speaker 1: Luca or Jaw. You can't go wrong. You're gonna be

946
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: a fan of one of those guys. Look your set,

947
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,760
Speaker 1: so good luck, Connor. Let us know who your buddies

948
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:28,359
Speaker 1: end up picking.

949
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 4: Next question, Hey, no chunks with respect to the semi

950
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 4: pro puke cut. It's from our film Session episode a

951
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 4: couple of weeks ago. I recently got a job at

952
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 4: a hardware store. For confidentiality's sake, we'll make up a

953
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 4: name and call it Chrome Depot. During my shift the

954
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 4: other day, I made a real boneheaded rookie mistake involving

955
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 4: a bunch of concrete powder. Again, for confidentiality's sake, we'll

956
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 4: leave it at that. When's the time you guys have

957
00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:02,760
Speaker 4: made or witnessed a major rookie mistake, basketball related or otherwise.

958
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:07,959
Speaker 4: Earn up, buy some ties, wash them. That's from Chris

959
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:12,239
Speaker 4: sets you ever, you ever made or witnessed a major

960
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 4: rookie mistake.

961
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 1: I'll just go with rookie mistakes I've made. Yeah, I've

962
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:17,719
Speaker 1: witnessed them, but I'll just go with ones i've made.

963
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 1: I think I've told a lot of these stories before

964
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 1: on the podcast, so I'll keep it super quick. Three

965
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 1: came to mind rookie mistakes. My first All Star weekend

966
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 1: didn't go well trying to get there because I was

967
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:33,240
Speaker 1: an idiot, and I missed my connection flight in Charlotte

968
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 1: because I needed a power outlet to do some work

969
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 1: on my computer. So I went down a couple of gates.

970
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 1: You know, I thought I would stroll up five minutes

971
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,239
Speaker 1: before the connection flight, and when I did, they had

972
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 1: already taken off, and I couldn't believe it. I was like,

973
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 1: you guys actually leave early. They're like, yeah, you know,

974
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 1: we made the call, you didn't come. I was like,

975
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 1: oh my god. So that one, I've told that story

976
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 1: a long time ago. Second one, probably my first Boston

977
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,319
Speaker 1: Marathon for sure, was a rookie mistake. And that's what

978
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:00,839
Speaker 1: a lot of people say it's going to be. You're

979
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 1: gonna go out way too fast because it's a good

980
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 1: downhill for the first part of it, and then you

981
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 1: start hitting the heartbreak hills and all that, and you know,

982
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,239
Speaker 1: kick the snot out of me. So I will be

983
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:13,840
Speaker 1: hopefully better prepared if I ever get a chance to

984
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:15,879
Speaker 1: run the Boston Marathon. Again. And then the last one

985
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 1: I shared not too long ago, my first attempt at

986
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:23,680
Speaker 1: making bacon on the barbecue lee, you know, absolutely brutal.

987
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 1: I left it for five seconds. I went inside to

988
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:29,400
Speaker 1: grab something, and then sure enough it was my barbecue

989
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 1: was in flames. So those three things, I get all

990
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:37,480
Speaker 1: stories already shared. Those are all rookie mistakes, the worst.

991
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 4: What about you, guys, I'll throw something in here because

992
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 4: something was on flames for me as well. I threw

993
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:46,839
Speaker 4: a bag of popcorn into the microwave on top of

994
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 4: the plastic cover shield. Yeah. I mean, if the plastic

995
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:53,959
Speaker 4: cover shield thing is going to light on fire, what's

996
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,640
Speaker 4: it in there for anyways? Just to get it out

997
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:58,719
Speaker 4: of there. Yeah, so it lit on fire because it

998
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 4: was a little too long in there. You will, you know,

999
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 4: you leave it. It's just a strange thing. What's the scientific

1000
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,399
Speaker 4: explanation for that? Because the plastic cover sits in there

1001
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 4: and it covers whatever you want to cover, but nothing

1002
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 4: can be touching it. Is that how science works? Or

1003
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 4: there's a time limit on it?

1004
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:18,319
Speaker 1: How does it work?

1005
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:18,720
Speaker 3: You guys?

1006
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:19,400
Speaker 2: Explain to me?

1007
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:21,879
Speaker 3: How do microwaves work? Is one of the all time

1008
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 3: great questions.

1009
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,560
Speaker 1: So you're saying, oh, see, I sort of when you

1010
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: first said the popcorn, I was like, oh, you accidentally

1011
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:30,759
Speaker 1: kept like the plastic wrapper. But you're saying that thing

1012
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,319
Speaker 1: you usually put over food to heat up like that,

1013
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 1: the thing that lives in the microwave basically right, like

1014
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,040
Speaker 1: to cover your food. Wow, you had that over the

1015
00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 1: popcorn and back.

1016
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 4: Con No, no, no, it was on the popcorn on

1017
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 4: top of the plastic car Oh.

1018
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 1: Fascinating. So it's like the heat from the kernels, you know,

1019
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,280
Speaker 1: on that I don't know that's telling.

1020
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 3: The hot bag. It must have been a real hot bag.

1021
00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:56,520
Speaker 4: Colonel Sanders. I have no idea.

1022
00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 1: I'm going through some microwave troubles right now too, Nora

1023
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:02,919
Speaker 1: about the It's like really heavy plates and I don't

1024
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,200
Speaker 1: know what's going on. But we found these new plates

1025
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 1: they like blow the fuse on the microwave or like

1026
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:13,080
Speaker 1: the outlet. There's something in these plates that triggers this.

1027
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,279
Speaker 1: I guess what appears to be like maybe is a

1028
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 1: crappy microwave where it like shorts out, Yeah, but it

1029
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 1: doesn't happen with the other plates. It's the weirdest thing. Yeah,

1030
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:22,920
Speaker 1: So microwaves, you're right, how do they work? Man?

1031
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 3: How do they work? I went to college with a

1032
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 3: girl whose party trick was, you know, it'd be like

1033
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:28,880
Speaker 3: two in the morning and she would just put a

1034
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,080
Speaker 3: bunch of CDs into the microwave so you could see

1035
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 3: like flames and sparks shooting off of them. I was like,

1036
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,799
Speaker 3: I don't know if you should be doing this, but

1037
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:38,920
Speaker 3: it's pretty crazy to watch. It's like when you go

1038
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:40,839
Speaker 3: to like a science museum and they've got like one

1039
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 3: of those, you know, one of those balls, and you

1040
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 3: touch it and it shoots like the little like the

1041
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:46,919
Speaker 3: little plasm out towards your fingers and it looks really

1042
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:49,319
Speaker 3: really cool and scientific. It was that, but also a

1043
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 3: little bit terrifying that this is going on in a

1044
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:53,280
Speaker 3: thing that's supposed to be cooking your food.

1045
00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it's like you might burn down your house

1046
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:56,960
Speaker 1: doing that.

1047
00:48:57,239 --> 00:48:57,479
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1048
00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 1: So we're not recommending.

1049
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,919
Speaker 3: Through that would be a rookie mistake. Your CDs don't

1050
00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:05,239
Speaker 3: go in your microwave. Yeah, But I released my I

1051
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 3: released my own puke cut Once upon a Time in

1052
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:09,319
Speaker 3: a rookie mistake. It was one of the first times

1053
00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:12,320
Speaker 3: I ever put a dip in. I put in a

1054
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 3: lot of dip, and for like the first twenty seconds

1055
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,279
Speaker 3: probably it was awesome. It was like you smoked five

1056
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 3: hundred cigarettes at the exact same time, and it was

1057
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 3: just so heavy. And then it turned immediately. I was like,

1058
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:25,799
Speaker 3: I gotta get outside. I gotta get outside right now.

1059
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 3: And then as soon as I did, the floodgates open.

1060
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 3: It was disgusting. It was disgusting, as is dipping.

1061
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:38,760
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, lee ah, Well that that would just remind

1062
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 5: me of the time with Manos and Titos when I

1063
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:44,400
Speaker 5: tried the bottle bomb the first time and God vomited

1064
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 5: forever half of that. Yep, rookie mistake sucked. Way too hot,

1065
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 5: way too hot.

1066
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:55,319
Speaker 6: Ged anything, mistakes seen, and if there's a mistake to

1067
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 6: be made, I have made it as a rookie. Actually

1068
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:02,360
Speaker 6: jump on escape. Oh yeah, skateboard. I finally got the

1069
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:05,240
Speaker 6: longboard and landed right on my ass within two minutes

1070
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:09,239
Speaker 6: of writing it again, So that was great, But I mean,

1071
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:11,799
Speaker 6: get in the hang of it a little bit. But yeah,

1072
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:15,440
Speaker 6: our first year. I listened finally to Matt Austin on

1073
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:20,400
Speaker 6: phil Chair Talk's podcast for The Fishbulb, and he was

1074
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 6: talking about our first year at NBA TV and that

1075
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 6: entire year. It was one massive rookie mistake. I mean,

1076
00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 6: you name it, I did it. And the biggest thing

1077
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:38,600
Speaker 6: I started calling it getting caught watching the show. Because

1078
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 6: if you're when you're a studio director, you have to

1079
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:45,400
Speaker 6: keep talking, you have to keep like, you know, calling

1080
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 6: the shots and stuff. But occasionally I would just start

1081
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,600

Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure.

1090
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:12,360
Speaker 5: Well, I guess those shows, those shows don't exist anywhere anymore,

1091
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 5: I do.

1092
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:17,600
Speaker 6: They thankfully not. What the first year, the first year, Yeah,

1093
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:19,640

1094
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 6: to record them, or the or the NBA. TV was

1095
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 6: just like they did us a kindness by by just

1096
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:28,920
Speaker 6: blowing them away, I guess.

1097
00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and right that was pre YouTube us putting

1098
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:34,080
Speaker 1: this up because those yeah, those were hour shows too.

1099
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:38,719
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Yeah, that's for the best for sure.

1100
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 1: All Right, we got one more here. Let's end with

1101
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:45,040
Speaker 1: this one. Hey, no dunk a use longtime listener, first

1102
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 1: time email or here. When COVID nineteen started, I wanted

1103
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 1: to do my part, and so a buddy and I

1104
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:53,360
Speaker 1: created Bag of Bluer, a bag of goodies from small

1105
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:56,480
Speaker 1: local businesses here on Bluor Street in Toronto. We've been

1106
00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:58,279
Speaker 1: delivering these to our neighbors over the last couple of

1107
00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 1: months and it seems to be helping the businesses get

1108
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:03,719
Speaker 1: through this tough time. Got two questions. Firstly, I know

1109
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,720
Speaker 1: you have a strong following in the great city of Toronto,

1110
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:07,360
Speaker 1: so I'm wondering if you can shut us out. I know,

1111
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:10,680
Speaker 1: Dunks Www dot Bag of Bloor dot ca.

1112
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 3: There you go.

1113
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,440
Speaker 1: All proceeds go to supporting the businesses and any leftovers

1114
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,080
Speaker 1: are being donated to a local women's shelter. That's great

1115
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:22,920
Speaker 1: stuff there. Secondly, where's the first spot local or not

1116
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 1: that you guys are going to go out and eat

1117
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:28,840
Speaker 1: at when you're able to do that? Again? Thanks for

00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 1: That's from Nick. Where you going Lee when it's safe

1120
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 1: to do so?

1121
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:35,759
Speaker 3: Here?

1122
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:38,800
Speaker 5: And well, I mean there's obviously a ton of restaurants

1123
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:40,279
Speaker 5: just up the road from my place, you know, the

1124
00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:41,320
Speaker 5: Persian one, Soufi's.

1125
00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:43,319
Speaker 2: I can't wait to go there, but you know, like

1126
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:44,239
Speaker 2: that'll be easy to do.

1127
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:46,600
Speaker 5: I'm actually dying to go back to Toronto to hit

1128
00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 5: up Barn Me Boys and Libreto Pizza because remember we

1129
00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:53,520
Speaker 5: were supposed to do a show before COVID hit and

1130
00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:57,279
Speaker 5: everyone got quarantined, and I already had basically ordered my

1131
00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 5: duck Barn Me from Barnbay Boys. I was ready for it,

1132
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 5: and uh and uh yeah, So I'm still just hankering

1133
00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:07,440
Speaker 5: for that. So that's it next time. I don't know

1134
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:08,920
Speaker 5: when it will be. It might not be for another year,

1135
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:11,680
Speaker 5: who knows. But that's the first place I'm going. And

1136
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:13,680
Speaker 5: then Libretto on the dan Forth for their pizza that

1137
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:15,719
Speaker 5: actually I like the duck pizza there too. Something about

1138
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 5: ducks in Toronto.

1139
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:19,880
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is. But and I'm a vegetarian,

1140
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:22,680
Speaker 2: so that really doesn't make any sense, are you.

1141
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,000
Speaker 5: I know I'm a.

1142
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,759
Speaker 2: Terrible vegetarian, but I am a vegetarian.

1143
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:32,880
Speaker 3: No you're not.

1144
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 1: That's not how it works, all right.

1145
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:39,719
Speaker 3: I'm going to folk Art on a Friday, no doubt,

1146
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:41,839

1162
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 4: to a restaurant that's also open for takeout, but it

1163
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 4: just ain't the same. I'm going for a nice hot

1166
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:43,799
Speaker 4: do boo, but probably not.

1167
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 1: I'm I'm coming at this a little differently. Like the

1168
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:50,040
Speaker 1: food you can, for the most part, still get like

1169
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,880
Speaker 1: you said, like you can get the delivery. But I

1170
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 1: want to go to a bar and have a damn drink,

1171
00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:58,759
Speaker 1: especially like you know, a specialty cocktail something that like

1172
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:00,920
Speaker 1: I couldn't whip that but at home. So I'm going

1173
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:02,480
Speaker 1: to go to Kimball House, which you can get great

1174
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 1: food there as well, but i want to hit the

1175
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:07,720
Speaker 1: bar at Kimball House and get some damn good drinks,

1176
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:10,399
Speaker 1: which I'm sure you can get delivered too. But that's

1177
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:12,239
Speaker 1: it's just not of course, it's just not the same

1178
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:13,839
Speaker 1: as sitting at the bar.

1179
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 6: They have that like the caraff of old fashions.
