On 37 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 2: today's Pod, we're gonna rank the worst NBA City Edition jerseys. 38 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 2: We're gonna try. 39 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: It's gonna be tough to pick the worst. 40 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 2: I can't wait. Trey has a slam in tweet of 41 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 2: the night. Can't wait for that. And we got a 42 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 2: whole lot more, but first, let's play some sure or 43 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: false all right. On the eve of the NBA season, 44 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 2: Jannis Antetokoumpo and the Milwaukee Bucks agreed on a three 45 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: year one hundred and eighty six million dollar contract extension. 46 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 2: The deal includes a player option for the twenty seven 47 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 2: to twenty eight season. But trure false, Trey Yannis and 48 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 2: the Bucks agreeing to this big contract extension now on 49 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 2: the eve of the NBA season is shocking, tru or false? 50 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: I think it's true. A minor shock though, Like you 51 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: ever try licking the top of a nine volt battery? 52 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I have, actually right, It's just. 53 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: Like a tiny little shock. Yeah, And that's what this 54 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: is because you almost lied to us. He said, a 55 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: lot of money isn't important, but a lot of effing 56 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: money is very important. That's why I'm signing next summer. 57 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: That's what everybody else told us too, Bobby Mark's chief 58 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: among them, explaining how Giannis would be able to cash 59 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: in even bigger next summer. So it seemed like he 60 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: would wait for the bigger payday, but apparently by signing 61 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: this extension now he can sign two more extensions with 62 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: the Bucks further down the line. So three paydays also 63 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: is a good way to get a lot of affing money, 64 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: and one hundred and eighty six million that's a good 65 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: start as well. So I'm not shocked Giannis's back. Once 66 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: the Bucks made the move for Dame Lillard, it felt 67 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: very similar to when the Bucks made the move for 68 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: Drew Holliday the last time Giannis was up for an extension. 69 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: He obviously liked what they were doing. He obviously feels 70 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: like the Bucks championship window continues to be open. He's 71 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: basically locked in for four years now with Damian Lillard 72 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: has a player option for the twenty six to twenty 73 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: seven season that Giannis's contract extends through. But you just 74 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: got to tip your gigantic hat to John Horst. What 75 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: a clutch GM his superstar that they found in the 76 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: middle of the draft, has come up for extension twice. 77 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: He's made a little bit of noise about saying, I 78 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: want to win a championship and I want to do 79 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: it here in Milwaukee. Brought in the players that made 80 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: Giannis want to sign the deal. So now they go 81 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: into the season with none of this pressure over their heads. 82 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: Great stuff from the Bucks in Austin for Jianness a 83 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: minor shock. I think that's a great way to put it, 84 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: because you're right. 85 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 2: Yiannis told The New York Times are New York Times 86 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 2: that it would not make financial sense for him to 87 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 2: sign an extension until the offseason. He reiterated that at 88 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 2: Media Day in an interview, So we just thought, okay, yeah, 89 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 2: oh makes sense. He'll he will sign it come the summer. 90 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: But no, he gets it done now. 91 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. 92 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 2: Shout out to John Hors and the Bucks organization for 93 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: locking this up. I mean it does remove sort of 94 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 2: a question mark that could potentially have hung over a 95 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 2: Bucks season, let's say, with a slow start or an 96 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 2: injury to one of their guys, then it's all like, oh, 97 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 2: what's Gianna's gonna do? Is he happy with dame there? 98 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: Is he happy with this direction of the franchise? Well, 99 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: that's not really an issue. Now, let's break down his 100 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 2: current contract structure. Yiannis this season makes forty five point 101 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 2: six million. In twenty four to twenty five, it'll be 102 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 2: forty eight point eight. Now, in twenty five to twenty six, 103 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 2: he will make fifty seven point six million. That replaces 104 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 2: the fifty one point five million dollar player option that 105 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 2: he did have. In twenty six twenty seven, it's sixty 106 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 2: two million plus, and then in twenty seven to twenty 107 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 2: eight it's a just shy of sixty seven million. But 108 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,679 Speaker 2: that one is a player option. And you said it, Trey, 109 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 2: this contract extension might be setting up for the next 110 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 2: contract extension or deal. These guys, they're slick with it. 111 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 2: They're always looking like a contract to her head now 112 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 2: and when you're at the level of a Yannis, you 113 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 2: can you can afford to do that. 114 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely superstar summer for Yiannis on Totokumpo, flexing his 115 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: muscles in the media, getting his team to make a move. 116 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: You heard John Horst say it was a little bit 117 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: above not at all the comments that Yannis made about 118 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: needing somebody alongside him trying to win a championship, So 119 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: certainly that factored into their mind. And great stuff for 120 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: the Bucks. Now all they got to do is win 121 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,679 Speaker 1: some championship. Guess what. A lot of players sign extensions 122 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: and then leave. One of them is on Yannis's team 123 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 1: right now. 124 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 2: That is a good point. Just because he's signed the 125 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: contract extension does not mean that one he is there 126 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 2: for life. Yeah, he's talked about want he'd be in Milwaukee, 127 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 2: but he's also talked a ton about like, I want 128 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 2: to win championships and if it goes poorly or he 129 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 2: doesn't like the direction of the team or maybe the 130 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: their their age you know, comes back to bite him 131 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 2: in the ass, you know, specifically talking about Middleton and 132 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: Brooke and maybe even Lillard. Then maybe you know who knows. 133 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 2: He then says once again. Yeah, he either says, hey, 134 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: get me some more help or I'm gonna go to 135 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: another team. But yeah, for right now, Bucks fans, I 136 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 2: mean just ecstatic. You got Damian Lillard this offseason and 137 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 2: then you just looked up locked up Yiannis here on 138 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 2: the night before the season tipped. That's incredible. 139 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, yeah, exactly. You know, the Bucks didn't do 140 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: a ton other than those moves, but those are pretty 141 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: sweet moves. And now you just got to see what 142 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: it looks like out on the court. Can't wait? 143 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: All right, So Jannis is off the uh I guess 144 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 2: hypothetical uh you know, trade target table for some of 145 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 2: these teams, because there probably were some squads say, oh man, 146 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 2: he hasn't sign an extension yet. Maybe maybe we can 147 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 2: go and get him. Well, not looking likely, but don't worry. 148 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 2: There's duel Embiid because according to the Philadelphia Inquirers Keith POMPEII, 149 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 2: the Knicks are willing to offer a package that includes 150 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 2: three key players, with Julius Randall, RJ. Barrett, Evan Fournier, 151 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 2: and Mitchell Robinson all available in exchange for dwell EMBIID 152 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: a trio from that group paired with two or three 153 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 2: first round picks. Again, this is coming from Keith Pompey, 154 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 2: So true or false the Knicks have an enticing trade 155 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 2: package for landing MVPMBIID. 156 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: Maybe it's true, but I'm going false because this is 157 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: not it. This is not an enticing trade package for 158 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: the seventy six ers. This is the kind of package 159 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: that Darryl Morey would love to get in return for 160 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: James Harden. The guy's holding out for multiple picks in 161 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: the first round and a quality player in Terrence Mann. 162 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,719 Speaker 1: And that's for a guy on the last year of 163 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: his contract at thirty four years of age, not a 164 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: reigning MVP. So of course the Knicks are willing to 165 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: part with these players. I mean Julius Randall, He's a 166 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: really good regular season player, has struggled in the playoffs 167 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: For the next RJ. Barrett, it's up to you your opinion. 168 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: He had a nice feb World Cup. His progress seems 169 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: to have stalled a little bit in the NBA, but 170 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: he's still young enough that you can convince yourself if 171 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: you're into that kind of player. I don't know if 172 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 1: Daryl Morey would be Mitchell Robinson. He's a nice starting center, 173 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: and then Evan forty a is just salary filler. But 174 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: it would all be about the picks that the Sixers 175 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: would be getting back from the Knicks, and I don't 176 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: know how exciting those picks would be. They would probably 177 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: the Knicks would probably want to include their Dallas first 178 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: round pick that they have that's top ten protected until 179 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, then it turns into second rounders. They 180 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: also have a Detroit pick that's top protected, top eighteen protected, 181 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: going down to top nine protections into twenty twenty seven. 182 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: They also have a Wizard's pick top twelve protected, goes 183 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: down to top eight protected in twenty twenty seven. Those 184 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: could all end up being second round picks. You would 185 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: be excited about maybe getting some Knicks picks further down 186 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: the line, you know, late twenty eight, twenty thirty, I'm 187 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: starting to see twenty thirty one show up in these 188 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: It looks ridiculous when you see but those ones could 189 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: be interesting because by then you have to figure embiat 190 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: is at the tail end of his career. But if 191 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: you're trading Embiid to the Knicks, their picks are going 192 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: to be at the end of the first round. So 193 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: I don't think this is a rebuilding type beat that 194 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: the Sixers will be getting back. And if you're moving 195 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: Joel Embiid, that is exactly what you want. So I 196 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: don't think this is a deal that the Sixers will 197 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: be interested in it at all. 198 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 2: How about the Timberwolves for Carl Anthony Towns, Oh, maybe 199 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 2: a little closer. It really depends on RJ. Barrett. When 200 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 2: I look at this package, like Julius Randall, you're right, 201 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 2: more of a regular season player, but an All NBA 202 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 2: regular season player and All Star. You know, Fournier, Okay, 203 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 2: that's shooting. You know, he's a vet, that's sort of nothing. 204 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 2: And then Mitchell Robinson, I like, I think he's actually, 205 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 2: you know, uh, was a huge part of the Knick success. 206 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 2: I mean I always talked about it last year when 207 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 2: the guy plays are actually pretty good, and then it's 208 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 2: the picks, of course, but it's RJ. Barrett. It's like, 209 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 2: can this guy really turn into an All Star level 210 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 2: player or is he just going to be sort of 211 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 2: a frustrating, sort of low efficiency player. He's still young enough. 212 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 2: I still have hope that he turned into a better player. 213 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 2: But yeah, that's the I mean, you would have to 214 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 2: convince yourself that RJ. Barrett is like a future All Star, 215 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 2: you know, a guy that can easily be the second 216 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 2: banana on a really good team. If you don't think that, 217 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 2: and a lot of people don't, then you're like, oh, 218 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: this is not all that sexy, especially when you went 219 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 2: through the picks and it would be more than that anyway. Yeah, 220 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 2: especially playing with Maury here. Just interesting. The timing of 221 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 2: this coming from POMPEII, Like I think late last night, 222 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 2: maybe early this morning. It was in an article about Harden. 223 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 2: I think the idea of being, well, holy crap, Harden, 224 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: is he going to play or not? Probably not? And 225 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 2: what impact that has on himb which we've talked about 226 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 2: for weeks. It feels like, now, so let's start thinking ahead. 227 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: What will these trade packages potentially look like? But sounds 228 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,559 Speaker 2: like you don't think this is the one. 229 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: This is not the one. But I think it's interesting 230 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: that we are starting to see Embid trade packages. Yeah, 231 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: the first night or the first morning of the regular season. 232 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: We will see a lot more Joel Embiid trade packages 233 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 1: as this season goes on, and they will probably beat 234 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: this one. 235 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, next one here. This comes by way 236 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 2: of Zach Harper at the Athletic. He does his power 237 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 2: rankings every week. They got a new nice update this season. 238 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 2: Oh it looks. 239 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: Slick that powering nice modules. 240 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 2: Good work over there, team. But I bring this up 241 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 2: because in Zach Harper's Power Rankings at the Athletic, go toe, 242 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: Athletic dot com, slash no dumbs, get yourself a subscription. 243 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 2: He does the tiers and he has right now as 244 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 2: we get ready for tip off of this season, he 245 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 2: has six teams in the contender's tier. He's got the Nuggets, 246 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 2: the Bucks, the Celtics, the Lakers, the Warriors, and the Suns. 247 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 2: True or false, there are six legit NBA title contenders 248 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 2: heading into the season. 249 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: I feel like this is a standardized test question that's 250 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: trying to trip me up because it's true and false 251 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: at the same time. Go on, there are seven legit 252 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 1: title contenders. So false, but that does also mean that 253 00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: they are sick. 254 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: Okay, true, who is the seven The Miami Heat. 255 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: The Miami Heat, of course, and actually, if you want 256 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: to break it down, I think there are five legit 257 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 1: title contenders and then two that you have to give 258 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: respect to. I'm totally in on the Nuggets, the Bucks, 259 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 1: the Celtics, the Lakers, and the Suns as title contenders. 260 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 1: So just to me, coming into the preseason, coming into 261 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: the NBA season, the five best teams, but the Heat 262 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: have made it to the NBA Finals twice in the 263 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: past four years, were a shot away the other year. 264 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: It feels like they would come up short against most 265 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 1: of these teams, But who knows how healthy those teams are, 266 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: and if you can keep getting to the finals, I 267 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 1: gotta give you some respect. That's similar to the Warriors too. 268 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: I feel like they are rapidly aging. They're just getting 269 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: older and older. Chris Paul is now an important part 270 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: of their team, replacing Jordan Poole. I don't know what 271 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: the age difference is, but thirteen years something like that, 272 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: it's got to be. So they're definitely getting older. But 273 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: we just recently saw the Warriors win a championship two 274 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: seasons ago. Last year, a little bit of a title hangover, 275 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of a fighting hangover. It just didn't gel. 276 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: But the talent and obviously the championship, know how, it's 277 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: still there with the Warriors, so I gotta throw them 278 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: into the mix. So yeah, I think the Heat and 279 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: the Warriors are kind of a tier below, even though 280 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: we had it different on our tiers in the preseason here. 281 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: But I do think that there are seven teams coming 282 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: into this season, I wouldn't be surprised if they won 283 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: the championship. 284 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 2: What I love about this as an NBA fan is 285 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 2: it feels like this is maybe the second or third 286 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 2: year in a row where it does feel like there's five, six, 287 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 2: seven teams that have a legit case to actually go 288 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 2: all the way. Because you know, years ago it was 289 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 2: like it was two or three that list. You were 290 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 2: like you were really searching for like a third or 291 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 2: fourth team to try and talk yourself into if everything 292 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 2: breaks right. But now you're right, I mean six to 293 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 2: seven legit title contenders. The best thing about all those 294 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 2: teams is like, it's a disappointing season if they're not 295 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 2: holding the lob at the end. So that makes it exciting. 296 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 2: So all right, we're the most part, we're agreeing with 297 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 2: that one. 298 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: True. 299 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 2: Zach Harper sort of has it right. Trey wants the 300 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 2: Heat bumped up, wants that little orange color beside them. 301 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. It's interesting though, because I'm like against the other 302 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: five teams that are ahead of them, Denver, Milwaukee, Boston, LA, 303 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: and Phoenix, Like you would take all of those teams. 304 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: I do believe over the Heat, but they're a team 305 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: that makes moves and they're a team that just gets 306 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: better in the playoffs for whatever reason. 307 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 2: Next one here contract extensions. We had more after yesterday's show. 308 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 2: A few minor ones just quickly. A Congou signed a 309 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 2: four year, sixty two million dollar deal with the Hawks 310 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 2: and extension, Josh Green staying with the MAVs. There a 311 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 2: three year deal Cole Anthony Magic, Aaron NEI Smith the Pacers. 312 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 2: But probably the biggest one, or definitely the biggest one 313 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 2: tray maybe the most shocking one, the Timberwolves and Jaden 314 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 2: McDaniels agreeing to a five year, one hundred and thirty 315 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 2: six million dollar contract extension. True or false, Jada McDaniels 316 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 2: is worth this type of money. 317 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: I'll go true because I think this will probably be true. 318 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: As time goes on nice leap last year for McDaniels 319 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: became a top five defender at the wing position. At 320 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: the very least, I think he finished third among fours 321 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: for voting. He was just barely outside of the All 322 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: defense for voting. He's only twenty three years old, and 323 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: most importantly, he shot thirty nine percent from three last season, 324 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: after thirty six and thirty one his first couple of 325 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: years in the league. So if McDaniels is able to 326 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: shoot near forty percent, even if he's in like thirty seven, 327 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: a little bit above league gaverage, he becomes a very 328 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: valuable player here. Thirty to thirty five million dollars per 329 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: year average annual value. That usually gets you like an 330 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: All Star fringe type character like a Julius Randall. The 331 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: twenty five to thirty million dollar range that Jade McDaniels 332 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: is in here, that gets you a plus player, and 333 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: I think that's what Jaden McDaniels is going to be. 334 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: Maybe he makes an All Star at some point in 335 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: his career. It'll be tough on the team he's on 336 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: right now, just because he's at best like their third 337 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: guy from a reputation standpoint, But he's well known on 338 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: the defensive end and gives you enough offensively. If he's 339 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: hitting threes, if he turns back into a thirty one 340 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: percent three point shooter, if this def deal looks a 341 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: little worse. But I've got some faith in him. He's 342 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: a really nice player. 343 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I lean towards true with this one as well. 344 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 2: My question is, is he already one of the best 345 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 2: three and D players in the NBA? Defensively, no doubt 346 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 2: you said it. He's already one of the best wing defenders. 347 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 2: He was in the running for all defensive honors even 348 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 2: last year, and he's so young, I assume he's going 349 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 2: to be making a lot of those teams. But the 350 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 2: three part of it is fascinating. You said thirty nine 351 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 2: point eight percent last season. That was a huge improvement 352 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 2: from the two seasons prior. So yeah, it sounds like 353 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 2: he's a three and D guy. But on the other hand, 354 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 2: pretty low volume shooting from the three point line three 355 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 2: point four attempts per game in today's game, that's that's 356 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 2: quite low. So you want to see that go up 357 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 2: and the efficiency obviously flirt around thirty seven to thirty 358 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 2: eight percent, then absolutely, But this is fascinating. The Timberwolves 359 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,959 Speaker 2: agree to a max roockey contract extension with Anthony Edwards 360 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 2: earlier in the offseason. Go bearn Towns are both on 361 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 2: super max deals. Nas Reed got paid, you know, three years, 362 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 2: forty two million as sort of a backup center, and 363 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 2: now you have this extension here with McDaniels. The Wolves 364 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 2: are going to be a luxury tax team for like 365 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 2: the first time in twenty years. I mean, new ownership 366 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,959 Speaker 2: coming in helps with that. But do they have a 367 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 2: team here we'll find out here in the season, but 368 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 2: that you feel comfortable being a luxury tax team paying 369 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 2: all that money to these guys if they're the seventh 370 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 2: or eight season, No, you don't. Probably. 371 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: I mean, a great season for the Timberwolves would be 372 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: finishing in the top four, huge, hosting a playoff series, 373 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 1: and even that is kind of a low bar for 374 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: a team that's going to be in the top ten 375 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: and payroll that's a second Apron team. So that was 376 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 1: one of my big takeaways from here is that Karl 377 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,439 Speaker 1: Anthony Towns is heavily on the market because it just 378 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 1: doesn't make sense to have four players in Go Beart, Cat, 379 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: nas Reed and McDaniels all in your front court. You 380 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 1: can't pay all those guys that money and then have 381 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 1: a supermax for Anthony Edwards as well. So it's like, yeah, 382 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 1: it would be awesome if Jaden McDaniels shoots more than 383 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: three threes a game, but the shots just aren't there. 384 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: Cat shoots a ton, Edwards shoots a ton. McDaniels is 385 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 1: a role player. So I think we'll see how this 386 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: season goes. For Minnesota. The pairing of Go baron Kat 387 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: should be a little bit better this season since they're 388 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: coming in with a full camp rather than Towns missing 389 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: time at the beginning of last season. But it feels 390 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: like the days are numbered for Carl in Minnesota. 391 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that probably is right. It's also, you know, smart 392 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 2: play by McDaniel's agents. I guess to wait and see 393 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 2: what Devin Vessel got with his contract extension. According to 394 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 2: John Krasinski at The Athletic, this negotiation between McDaniels and 395 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 2: the Wolves, it went back and forth, and you know, 396 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: they started these discussions in July, but the parameters of 397 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 2: the deal changed drastically when the Spurs signed Devin Vessel 398 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 2: to that five year, one hundred and thirty five million 399 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 2: dollars deal and maybe then they're like, hey, he's he's 400 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 2: a different player. He's better defensively than vessel is. I mean, 401 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 2: he's a better offensive player, but he's in the ballpark, 402 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 2: you know, similar age and all that, and you see 403 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 2: the growth and he's a huge locker room guy as well. 404 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean it was a shocking number. I'll 405 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,400 Speaker 2: admit I was like, WHOA, he's a good player, but man, 406 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 2: they got a lot of guys on those max deals now, big, 407 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 2: big money. 408 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: There, exactly, But he's also young and at a position 409 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: that people are going to be interested in as time 410 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: goes on. So a tradable contract down the road if 411 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: that's the case. But yeah, basically the same deal as 412 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: Devin Vessel, the same deal structure as McHale Bridges, but 413 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 1: he signed on the previous Caps. Sure it's a little 414 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: bit less money, but same percentages. And if it's like 415 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: between McHale, Bridges, McDaniels and Vessel, I'm definitely taking Bridges first, yes, 416 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: over either of those two guys, and then it's probably 417 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: a toss up between McDaniels and Vasselle. We've seen McDaniels 418 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: in a better situation. I think, uh, just because the 419 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: Timberwolves are trying to win, whereas Vesselle is kind of 420 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 1: getting his first chance now. So we'll see at the 421 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: end of the season. But I probably would lean vessell 422 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 1: I don't know. 423 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 2: That's a toss up, all right, Final one here in 424 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 2: truer false. According to Front Office Sports, Amazon is eyeing 425 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 2: an NBA game package for Tuesday or Thursday nights. The 426 00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 2: goal is to create the NBA version of Thursday Night Football, 427 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 2: which currently streams on the e commerce giant. The NBA 428 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 2: is seeking an estimated fifty billion yes that's with a 429 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 2: B to seventy five billion for its next cycle here 430 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 2: of long term media. Right, so my truerfils question trufils, 431 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 2: the NBA and Amazon are headed towards a one billion 432 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 2: dollar streaming partnership. Here, I guess what I'm getting at is, 433 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 2: do you think Amazon will be included in this next 434 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 2: you know, television slash streaming deal. 435 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: You're telling me Jeff Bezos is going doctor evil mode. 436 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: I offer you one billion dollars, pets, his cat, bald 437 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: head and everything. This is obviously true. 438 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 2: Yep. 439 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: Live sports is very valuable and if you read some 440 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 1: of the press around this next deal that the NBA 441 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: is looking for. There are a lot of people interested, 442 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: not just Amazon, but Apple in the next as well. 443 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 1: Maybe NBC tries to get in the streaming game. The 444 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: NBA is quite aware that there are fewer and fewer 445 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: people watching over TV linear TV, so streaming you gotta 446 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: get in now. But it's even more important for the 447 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 1: future when the kids who have grown up never having 448 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: a cable subscription are paying the bills, you know, so 449 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 1: you got to get in. I think there are about 450 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: nine hundred games that haven't been sold to ESPN or 451 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: to Turner, so you can have two a week that 452 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: are on or on Amazon's Firestick or whatever it is. 453 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. The league is still, of course negotiating 454 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 2: with their incumbent media rightes partners, you know, Walt Disney's 455 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 2: ESPN and then Warner brother Discoveries Sports, T and T. 456 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 2: They're still gonna be a part of this, I believe 457 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 2: going forward. But yeah, why won't they carve out a 458 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 2: piece of these games a night, even be it. I 459 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 2: don't think it'd be Thursday night. That would be a 460 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 2: little strange unless T and T is moving off of that. 461 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 2: But yeah, like a Tuesday night. Why wouldn't that be 462 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 2: like the Marquee Night or they try and make it 463 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 2: a Markee night. Are those potential in season tournament games nights? 464 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: It's Tuesdays and Fridays. 465 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 2: I believe it is. It's like, I mean, I'm you know, 466 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 2: I'm saying it with a smirk on my face. But 467 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 2: you could see why the NBA would love that, of course, 468 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 2: like to like make those games a little more marquee. 469 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 2: Maybe they're on Amazon or be at Apple or help me, 470 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 2: I don't know, Google, Netflix. We'll see. Because I think 471 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 2: this deal it's going to be like three to five 472 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 2: media partners. I don't think it's going to be just 473 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 2: obviously the two you know, media giants. It's going to 474 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 2: be some of these streaming guys as well. 475 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: Streamers are getting in the mix. And you're right that 476 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,880 Speaker 1: Amazon hosted the WNBA Commissioner Cup. I know at least 477 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: the finals was exclusively on Amazon, so there's a relationship 478 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: there already, and they're doing I mean, that's their nd 479 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: season tournament, so no difference. That could definitely be where 480 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: it lives. I think that the NBA, though, would be 481 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 1: a little hesitant to do that right away. Because then 482 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of people have Amazon Prime, A 483 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: lot of people do have fire sticks. You can go 484 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: watch Thursday night football at a bar. I don't know 485 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 1: how they have that setup, but you can do it 486 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: through Amazon. But also, would they want to have all 487 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: of these in season tournaments, which they're trying to blow 488 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 1: up as a big deal, put in an exclusive of 489 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: site that not everybody has, even though a lot of 490 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: people do. I don't know about that, but it makes 491 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 1: sense considering the previous relationships. 492 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, within this Front Office Sports article, you know, their 493 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 2: sources say the NBA is intrigued by Amazon's ability to 494 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 2: draw an audience seven years younger than the NFL's legacy 495 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 2: TV partners. They were talking about the idea that these games, 496 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 2: these football games on Amazon are drawing a much much 497 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 2: younger audience than they are on normal television, which makes 498 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 2: sense because these are the people that are leaning into it. 499 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 2: You just hope whatever this deal is, like, you wonder 500 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 2: how confusing it's gonna be. Like already with football, it's 501 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 2: like where is the game? Who's got it? Do I 502 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 2: have that subscription? Whatever? Are we gonna be going there? 503 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 2: With the NBA? I mean probably if what I'm saying 504 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 2: is gonna happen here. There's gonna be like three, four 505 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 2: or five spots and you're gonna have to figure out 506 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 2: where the games are. 507 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna be confusing. I was out this weekend 508 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: and I had a buddy who was super excited that 509 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: Max was gonna be streaming NBA games. I was like, oh, yeah, 510 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: I forgot maxis streaming national games. So that's another way, uh, 511 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: that people can watch. Yeah, there's a lot of them, 512 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:09,239 Speaker 1: but man, it gets confusing. And one thing I'm sure that, uh, 513 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: the companies love that the corporations love is you watch 514 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: a lot more commercials with streaming because you're like, yes, 515 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: this is this is a hassle. I'm watching Monday night. 516 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,199 Speaker 1: Flip over to the Fox Sports app to try and 517 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: watch Game seven. Nah, I'll just sit and watch yeah 518 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 1: through this stupid ad. 519 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 2: That's a great puss. 520 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: It's so frustrating to flip between apps. It's not as 521 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: easy as flipping between channels. 522 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 2: It's like, we got you here on YouTube because we 523 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 2: gotta take a break.

It's 548 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 2: actually very funny and they had him on and it 549 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 2: was an enlightening interview. Say it was fascinating, guy. Anyway. 550 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 2: One of the segments pick your poison. Uh, you know, 551 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 2: you're you're presented a couple things and you got to 552 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,040 Speaker 2: pick the best of the worst. And hey, we I 553 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 2: thought it would be perfect for these new NBA City 554 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 2: Edition jerseys. And instead of showing you all thirty at once, 555 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 2: we have broken them down into divisions. Let's start with 556 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,360 Speaker 2: the Atlantic division. Here are the new NBA city jerseys. 557 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 2: We got Boston, we got the nets, a funky little 558 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 2: font there, the Knicks. You need three D glasses for those, 559 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 2: the Sixers with the City of Brotherly Love. There's a 560 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 2: lot of text there. And then Toronto with the sort 561 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 2: of baby poo gold shout out to the boy. So 562 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:37,959 Speaker 2: we're picking our poison here, Trey, what's the best of 563 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 2: the worst. When it comes to the Lantic division, I 564 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 2: love this, Skeates. 565 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 1: We used to do this every night in college. We 566 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: would have bunk talk, all the boys hanging in the bunks. 567 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: We would either do street Cred rankings, which is like 568 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: the coolest things you did that week to see where 569 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: you ranked compared to everybody else, an early progenitor of 570 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: the Riz rankings. Yes, or other nights we would do 571 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: Pick your Poison, where we literally just for hours come 572 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: up with terrible scenarios to see how it pays off. 573 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 1: There was always a secret option hemlock and in case 574 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 1: you wanted to take the Socrates route out of things. Okay, 575 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: you see a lot of hemlock on this one. For me, 576 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: in the Atlantic division, I think I like the Knicks 577 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: the best. I don't know why. The double vision thing 578 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: is pretty weird with the white New York on top 579 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 1: of the orange New York. It's very nineties inspired. I 580 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: think with the black side panels that they wore during 581 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: the ewing years. I think there's pin stripes on this 582 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: as well, like a pretty faint pin stripe. But I'm 583 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: just comparing it to the others. 584 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you're saying it's the least offensive, it feels 585 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 2: like the most like the Knicks normal Jersey. 586 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree. 587 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm torn between the Knicks and Boston as the 588 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 2: best of the worst here. I mean, no, thank you 589 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 2: to the Nets one. I know that's uh, Who's that's 590 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 2: cause of the artists of that one, The City of 591 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,959 Speaker 2: Brotherly Love. Oh my god, that's a bad Josey. 592 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: That one's pretty bad there. One last year was cool, 593 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: like the white one that was very similar, But the 594 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: fonts are just off on this one. I like Boston's too. 595 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: The general design I think is all right, but there's 596 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: wood paneling on the side. 597 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 2: You don't like the wood Yeah, people are gonna. 598 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: Call these the Woodies. Okay, they wearing the Woodies tonight. 599 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: Last year it was diamond armpits. 600 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 2: And and Toronto's Yeah sure, I mean, you know, sort 601 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 2: of throwback to the the their their zigzag, you know, 602 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: pinstripes from the og Raptors' uniforms. But I just something 603 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 2: about the color. It's not It doesn't sit right with me. 604 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: I'm just hoping they're not shiny. 605 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think they As long as. 606 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: It's like a matte gold, it might be less offensive. 607 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm going Boston, You're going the Knicks. Yeah, goodness, 608 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 2: as uh as the best of the worst. Okay, let's 609 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 2: move it to the Central Division. We got Chicago mailing 610 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 2: it in, just putting Chicago vertically down the side of 611 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 2: their Jersey Cleveland, going with the land here these maroon 612 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 2: colored jerseys. There's a little drip there on the five 613 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 2: of the four of Donovan Mitchell's numbers. That dripping. I 614 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 2: don't know what Detroit, I get your five checked? Going 615 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 2: with the bad boys like font on theirs. Uh, the 616 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 2: Indiana Pacers out of nowhere with the graffiti style down 617 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 2: the sides and the font sort of I guess graffiti 618 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 2: like if you want to call it that. And then 619 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 2: Milwaukee with some more blue joints. You got the green 620 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 2: trim there. There's a cool sort of pattern on that 621 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 2: one as well. Anyway, pick your poison. What's the best 622 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 2: of the worst in the Central. 623 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: I think the least defensive is probably Detroit's. It's pretty 624 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: simple and the script is like modeled off their eighties 625 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: early nineties warm ups, the Dennis Rodman warm ups. I 626 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: love the skull and cross bowl that's cool on the side. Yeah, 627 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: that's sweet. I can't believe I'm gonna pick this skeets, 628 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: But I think my favorite of this bunch is the 629 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: Indiana Pacers. It's so ridiculous. It literally looks like somebody 630 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: drew the zero of the number for Benedict Mathren looks 631 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: like somebody drew it on MS paint. Yeah, as does 632 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: the Indie. To be quite honest, it looks so so 633 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: weird that you can't believe it's real. It looks like 634 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: somebody put one in as a joke, like, haha, I 635 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: made this one on my on my nineteen ninety five 636 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: acircum yeah, and slipped it in. 637 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 2: It's I believe the Pacers were one of the last 638 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 2: leaks here too, So it does feel like like twenty 639 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 2: nine of these city edition jerseys were done and they 640 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 2: were like emailing Indiana like where's yours? You haven't sent 641 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 2: it in yet, and like some temp was like, oh shit, 642 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 2: we forgot to do that, and you're like and then 643 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 2: here you go. Enjoy this crazy Yeah, I'm picking between 644 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 2: Detroit and I don't mind Milwaukee's, even though it feels 645 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 2: like it's almost should be Minnesota's with the colorways. But 646 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 2: those are two of my favorites here. The land is, 647 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 2: I mean, it's not offensive. It's similar to the ones 648 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 2: they had that were white. It's hard to read the 649 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 2: land though, Yeah, what do you think about your bulls? 650 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 1: You're not impressed.

The te o plus 671 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: the mint is kind of a weird combination, but I 672 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: think that one's fine. Orlando Magic it looks like a 673 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys jersey to me. Yeah, the navy blue. Obviously 674 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: they brought back the star, but it's silver, so give 675 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: gives cowboy vibes totally.

But what is supposed to be 687 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: the references for District of Columbia. 688 00:33:59,240 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 2: I don't know. 689 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: Like first I was like, is it because of the 690 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: Statue of Liberty turning from copper to that greenish color? 691 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: And then I was like, oh, wait, that's in a 692 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: completely different state and location in the United States. I 693 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 1: have no idea. 694 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, somebody, Penny, somebody said it. It's a Washington Post 695 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 2: reference what Ben Gulliver on the back. 696 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:22,839 Speaker 1: That's why it looks like a Blazer's jersey a little bit. 697 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, make it a make a jersey at a lego 698 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 2: and then we're talking all right, so yeah we're going 699 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 2: buzz city. I don't mind ne Orlando one. But now 700 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,399 Speaker 2: that you said they look like cowboys jerseys, I can't 701 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 2: stop thinking. 702 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a Dak Prescott jersey. 703 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 2: That's right. Okay, let's go to the west end, the 704 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 2: Northwest Division, the Denver numbers there with the five, two eight. Oh, 705 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 2: that's a Nuggets jersey. Guys, the Minnesota Timberwolves with their 706 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 2: lake joints. Okay, see, you can't really see it there 707 00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 2: in the image we have, but there's a lot of 708 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,879 Speaker 2: like sort of I don't know, are they I don't 709 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,919 Speaker 2: even know how to describe it. Photos I guess are 710 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,760 Speaker 2: like designs. I guess I should say in the black, 711 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 2: like within the black. It's not really popping right now 712 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 2: for me. Rip City with some plaid there for the 713 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 2: Blazers and then Utah Jazz Purple Mountain joints, yep, pick 714 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 2: a poison. 715 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: Well, we've talked about the Timberwolves ones a lot. They're 716 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 1: still good, and when you see him compared to the 717 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: other thirty ones, you're like, Okay, that might be the 718 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,479 Speaker 1: best one here. I think the Jazz is awesome, looks great. 719 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: They're kind of rating, you know, basically going with a 720 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: throwback design but updating it for currently. But I think 721 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: those look incredible. But if you're talking about the three, 722 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: the Nuggets, the Thunder and the Rip City, I mean, 723 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 1: I guess I don't know if you gots choose between 724 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 1: those ones. I'm leaning towards Portland because it's got shoulder 725 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,399 Speaker 1: plaids on the back, which is a funny joke for us. 726 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: But I don't know, I don't know if you can 727 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 1: choose between those three. 728 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, my buddy Grish, Your buddy Grish are Buddy Grish. 729 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 2: He likes to tell us that he invented shoulder plaids, 730 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 2: and I think he might have. This is this is 731 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 2: years ago. This is over a decade ago, maybe two decades. 732 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 2: At this point, he for some reason thought it would 733 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,280 Speaker 2: be cool, I guess, to get his mom to stitch 734 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 2: plaid on the shoulders of his T shirts. And he 735 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 2: created shoulder plaids, and he tried to make it a look. 736 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 2: He had our friend Paul as one of the models. 737 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 2: And you know, there was a short window where these 738 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 2: were being worn. They weren't to a Summer League show 739 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 2: that we had in Vegas. I think they got on camera. Yeah, 740 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 2: they were showing off the shoulder plaids. Yeah, they're pointing 741 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 2: out peak a tractus is there anyway? So we sent 742 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,280 Speaker 2: this to Grish and he was, I mean he was ecstatic. 743 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 2: People were wondering if he was getting a percentage from 744 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 2: the rips in the sales, because yeah, you can't see 745 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 2: it right here on the front, but on the back 746 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 2: there you see that little red bleeding through their shoulder 747 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 2: plaids on a jersey. Yeah. So for that reason, that 748 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 2: reason alone, I gotta take it. I can't believe the 749 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 2: day is come. Grisha created a. 750 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 1: Fashion Stateuma Henderson, Yeah, for sure, you'd love it. 751 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 2: No, you're right though. It's it's the Wolves and the 752 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 2: jazz and uh, I mean these nuggets one, these are 753 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,760 Speaker 2: these are just in See, these are the defending NBA champions. 754 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 2: They're gonna be forced to wear this hunk of shit. 755 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 2: Five to eight, Oh, flip it upside down eight. Five 756 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 2: to two. Um, did I have that right? Yeah? 757 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: Two? 758 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 2: Five? 759 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,319 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, you're right five too, because it would be. 760 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 2: Upside now yes, yes, yes, brutal, brutal stuff. What are 761 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 2: they doing? 762 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: I would almost get that as like if I could 763 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: get a custom jersey number thirteen Kirby, because then it 764 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 1: would have my basketball number, my football number, and Brad 765 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: Miller's number on it. So good for me, maybe good 766 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,680 Speaker 1: for you as well, because it looks like a runner's bit. 767 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 2: That's what people. Yeah, yeah, running the New York Marathon 768 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 2: there in that one? Is there a Denver Marathon? For sure? 769 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 2: I think i'd probably have run with a five to 770 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 2: eight oh on my chest before. 771 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 1: Wow, that's a Denver marathon. It would be an altitude yeah, 772 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: all be downhill on mountains, so good, just roll up. 773 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 2: Into a ball like your sonic the Hedgehog. Okay, so 774 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 2: yeah we like we like the walls, we like the 775 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 2: jazz and yeah we got some love for Rip City 776 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 2: and they're weird plaid shoulders okay. The Pacific Division, San 777 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 2: Francisco going up hill. Speaking of hills, Yeah, it is wavy. 778 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:21,879 Speaker 2: It almost looks like an. 779 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: Error, but it's not. 780 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 2: The clips with pretty generic looking Jersey here got the 781 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 2: little basketball on the eye. The Los Angeles Lakers. I 782 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,800 Speaker 2: guess they're paying homage to an old Jersey, weird triangle 783 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 2: sort of format there with the Los Angeles. We got 784 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 2: the Spanish Valley joints for the Suns, which I have 785 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 2: compared to Taco Bell the Colors there and then the Kings, 786 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 2: you know, again paying homage to an old Jersey. The 787 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 2: Rochester Royals, I believe with that look with the King 788 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 2: sort of down the side, so pick your. 789 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 1: Poison Suns is awesome. It looks great. I think it'll 790 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: look really cool on court. Yeah, well they were tonight, 791 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:02,400 Speaker 1: probably not for a season opener, but that'll look cool 792 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 1: because they always do a really good job. I feel 793 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 1: like with their having their court match these weird jerseys, 794 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,240 Speaker 1: so I think that'll looks sweet. The King's is pretty 795 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: good to me. We've seen them wear something similar for 796 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,360 Speaker 1: a lot of these throwing it back to the Royals days. 797 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: But my favorite of the bunch, and I don't even 798 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 1: hate it, Skeets. I like the San Francisco Warriors. I 799 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 1: kind of don't mind the waviness of it, and I 800 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: understand the reference because when you're in San Francisco. There's 801 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,360 Speaker 1: hills everywhere. Man, it's crazy, and I don't know, I 802 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 1: thought there was last year. Remember they had like, I 803 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 1: think a weird rose pattern down at the point. Don't 804 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 1: know it would stick up from the shorts. Very weird look. 805 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: But I did think the black and gold looked pretty 806 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 1: solid for the Warriors, So I'm in on this one. 807 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 2: Those are rolling hills there though, and I remember steep 808 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 2: hills in San Francisco. You want it even mooring, yeah, 809 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 2: forty five degree angle. I showed more of these and 810 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,880 Speaker 2: she immediately was like, that's a mistake, right, Like they 811 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 2: screwed up. Did you pick the wrong one? Like it 812 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 2: was an error because it does look so you know, 813 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 2: think of a jersey where it had the font, the 814 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 2: team name, that wiggly yeah. I mean it's it's weird. 815 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 2: I can't say. 816 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:09,919 Speaker 1: I like it kind of looks like that emoji where 817 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 1: it's like, oh, yeah. 818 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,879 Speaker 2: That's true. This is a rough bunch. But I lean 819 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 2: towards the Sons and Kings, like you. I hate these 820 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 2: Lakers ones too. I know that again there it's like 821 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 2: a bit of a throwback or a nod to the past. 822 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 2: I think that looks so stupid the way that that's designed. 823 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 1: The color is more of the problem for me. I 824 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 1: don't like the black Ford literally no reason. The design 825 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 1: is unusual though. It looks like an old shirt, like 826 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: an old nineteen fifties or sixties shirt before they'd actually 827 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 1: it justaks some arch design. 828 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 2: It looks cluttered. It looks like there's so much on 829 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 2: the front of that jersey because there is. 830 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 1: Are lots of anglees on that one. 831 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, all right, final one here Southwest Division. The 832 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 2: Dallas Mavericks with like a you know, a seventies style font. 833 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 2: I want to call that, I don't know. We got 834 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,760 Speaker 2: each town for the Rockets with their white jerseys. Memphis 835 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 2: going with the barcode Look. Uh they've had that that 836 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 2: design on the on their shorts before I remember, so 837 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 2: they put it up on their on their chest now. Uh. 838 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 2: New Orleans going with this sort of what people are 839 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 2: calling like a voodoo theme I guess instead of their 840 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 2: normal Mardi Gras, like they're black and got some neon 841 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,919 Speaker 2: green there. And then San Antonio, uh in a way 842 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 2: paying homage to like the World Fair. No, no, what 843 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 2: a burger I think the world Fare that they had 844 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 2: and like back in the sixties or. 845 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 1: Something like that. Anyway, Yeah, of course. 846 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 2: Pick your poison. When it comes to the final division. 847 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 1: Here in the Southwest, that's the best division. These are fine, 848 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 1: These are all fine. Yeah, that might be actually rights. 849 00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:47,879 Speaker 2: Wow. 850 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, congratulations on all fine. I kind of like the 851 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 1: Nola leaning into the voodoo look of things. It's a 852 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,879 Speaker 1: little underwhelming. Doesn't really go with what they're wearing at all. 853 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 2: That could look cool on a custom court, I. 854 00:41:58,840 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: Think it'll look cool. 855 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,960 Speaker 2: That would look awesome. Yeah, almost like a glow in 856 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 2: the dark with that green. Yeah, neat. 857 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 1: But my favorite is the San Antonio what a Burger's. 858 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,399 Speaker 1: If I were to get a Victor Webbin Yama jersey, 859 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 1: it would probably be this one. I'm a sucker for 860 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: orange obviously, and them using it as an accent color 861 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,400 Speaker 1: is pretty smart. And you do not see brown on 862 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 1: the jersey all that often. I do believe that's a 863 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 1: brown wordmark, right That San Antonio looks brown to me. 864 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:27,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's got some some brown tint to it. Yeah. 865 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 1: Who wears brown jerseys? The Padres, Cleveland browns, Cleveland. 866 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 2: Brown good point. Yeah, let us know in the stream 867 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 2: team any other teams that wear Brown. 868 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 1: NBA team, that's Warren Brown. That's a tough one to 869 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:39,440 Speaker 1: think of. 870 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm trying to think of even any 871 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 2: old San Diego Clippers, but they didn't wear Brown. No, 872 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 2: I don't know any Brown's out there. Okay, So you 873 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 2: like this division the most? Yeah, I think it's all right, 874 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:56,479 Speaker 2: It's okay. I would pick I would love to see 875 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,439 Speaker 2: those those voodoo nolas on a custom court, Like I said, 876 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:04,240 Speaker 2: I think that could cool. I don't mind the mass Yeah, yeah, exactly, 877 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,239 Speaker 2: I don't mind them. I guess maybe it looks great 878 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 2: with the seventy seven there number all right there it is. 879 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 2: Stream team was chiming in here on all of those going. 880 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 2: I mean there was a lot of Man, these all suck. 881 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 2: Whoa what are these who gave up?

In the end. 888 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: I think maybe three had over a five. 889 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 2: Five.
