Speaker 3: Cup date two more quarterfinal games last night. First one,

15
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 3: you guys were on playback four the Hawks cucka rally

16
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 3: for the one O eight, one hundred victory over the

17
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 3: Knicks and a trip to the NBA Cup semifinals. Tas

18
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 3: Mellis can see the Hawks in Vegas, Babe, Yeah, baby.

19
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 4: I thought your cocka would have a little more flair

20
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 4: cook because the Hawks did.

21
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 3: It was an ugly game for of it, but man,

22
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 3: what a third quarter.

23
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 4: From it was a beautiful third quarter. I was surprised.

24
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 4: The next came out of that locker room and laid

25
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 4: a bit of a dud. They just did not have

26
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 4: the same fight that the Atlanta Hawks did, especially to

27
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 4: start the offensive end. First possession there by beyond the

28
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 4: three point line. The ball didn't enter the three point

29
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 4: line for twenty four seconds. The Hawks did a good

30
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,039
Speaker 4: job of pushing up every single possession, and they got

31
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 4: after it. On the offensive end, a lot of guys.

32
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 4: Trey Young started setting up guys with the Jalen Johnson,

33
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 4: the dunk Jalhen Johnson came alive. You saw a huge

34
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 4: blot from Zacharyrisachet turning into a Jalen Johnson and one

35
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 4: opportunity missed the free throw. But here comes Dyson Daniels

36
00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 4: for the tipping. I mean, I'm naming a bunch of

37
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 4: because all of their guys really truly performed to start

38
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 4: that quarter. A big problem not getting into the three

39
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 4: point line and not getting into their sets was Dyson

40
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 4: Daniels doing a pretty good job on Jaalen Yea. Jalen

41
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 4: Brunson shook Dyson Daniels in the corner like he was

42
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 4: shaking a dice in vacuum. Filter, he shook them. Dyson

43
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 4: Daniels looked like he got lost there, but he recovered

44
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 4: fast enough to block Brunson shot. I mean, I'm talking

45
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 4: about the effort and what they were doing out there,

46
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 4: because you don't see these type of numbers very often.

47
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 4: They grabbed forty percent of their misses. That's a freaking

48
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 4: huge job. Twenty two offensive rebounds for them, five from

49
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 4: a kong Wu, five from Dyson Daniels, four from Jalen

50
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 4: Johnson and Capella. I mean, the Knicks haven't allowed twenty

51
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,679
Speaker 4: offensive rebounds in Madison Square Garden in three and a

52
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 4: half years. And that was an overtime game. That just

53
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 4: doesn't happen very often. But there's so many guys we

54
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 4: trade matched it. As we're previewing the game, I'm mentioning

55
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 4: all the guys who are starting, but the bench players

56
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 4: after Resoawce showing to the bench for DeAndre Hunter. Jondre

57
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 4: Hunter's freaking playing great offense, but he's also a damn

58
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 4: good defender and he was getting it getting after it

59
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 4: on the offensive glass. I mean, holding the Knicks. He's Knicks.

60
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 4: Karl Antony Towns and Jalen brought to too one hundred

61
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 4: points on ninety nine possessions. One team wanted to go

62
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 4: to Vegas just a little bit more. It's true, I

63
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 4: was surprised to see how flat they were in that

64
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 4: third quarter because the Hawks were lousing in that first half.

65
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 4: Rye I couldn't shoot and.

66
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 3: That's what crazy to me was Like Mike Breen on

67
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 3: the broadcast kept saying, the Hawks haven't shot well, but

68
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 3: it's their defense that's kept them in the game. Yeap

69
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 3: before this season, tray that would have been followed by

70
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 3: the loudest said no one ever of all time. We

71
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 3: never say that about the Hawks over the last four

72
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 3: or five years, but it was true in this game.

73
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 3: It did keep them alive until the shots started falling

74
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 3: in the third quarter.

75
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: There yeah fifteen turnovers for the Knicks. Also, like tas mentioned,

76
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: twenty two offensive rebounds for the Hawks, they took eleven

77
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: more shots, and they ran all the time. I thought

78
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: in the same second half, on misses, on turnovers, even

79
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: on makes twenty to ten fast break points, they just

80
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: looked like the bigger, more athletic team out there. We've

81
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: seen similar things happen with Jalen Brunson. Right in the

82
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: sixer series. Last year he started sixteen for fifty five

83
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: from the field. That was Batoomb and Kelly Ubray were

84
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: kind of giving him trouble. Eventually he figured it out.

85
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 1: Ripped off a string of forty point games. That's in

86
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: a series. This is a one game elimination tournament, and

87
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 1: that's why it's so exciting. I was super impressed with

88
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: Trey Jung a tale of two trays. First half. They

89
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 1: were playing him to pass and he didn't expect it.

90
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: Twice in the first five minutes of the game, he

91
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 1: drives into the lane on a pick and roll. He's

92
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: trying to do the thing where he jumps up in

93
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: the air, the defender comes to him for the floater.

94
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: He drops it to Capella for a dunk or an

95
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: alley oop, but the Knicks played it smart. They backed

96
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: off Towns two steals right off of that. In the

97
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 1: second half, Trey come out looking to score. In the

98
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: third quarter, he went three to five from the field,

99
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: five assists, zero turnovers during that huge run. Then they

100
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: had to start blitzing him late and fourth quarter. Four assists,

101
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: zero turnovers through so many alley oops. They were getting

102
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: into the small, small picking rolls with either Daniels or

103
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: Jalen Johnson, both guys with double letter names. I never

104
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: really thought of it that way, but it was smart.

105
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: They would get the ball to those guys and they

106
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: were able to make plays for everybody else. That's the

107
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: benefit of having a couple of secondary playmakers. They never

108
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,359
Speaker 1: did that with the Jante Murray. That's just not his game.

109
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: But that is Jalen Johnson's game, that is Dyson daniels game.

110
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 1: They were making smart decisions. And then you mentioned DeAndre

111
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: Hunter is cut Michael Jordan. It was insane seeing him

112
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: go off like that in Madison Square Garden. He's sitting

113
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: catching shoot three pointers. If they switched the small guy

114
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: on him, put him in the basket, finish easily with

115
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: a dunk. He's catching alley oops. Super impressive. This is

116
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: like the best three week stretch he's ever had. This

117
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: is the best the Hawks have looked since Quinn Snyder

118
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: got to Atlanta. They're peaking right now. Bring the cup home. Well,

119
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: I can say.

120
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 3: When DeAndre Hunter, I guess bullied if you want to

121
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 3: call it, that campaign on the baseline and dumped it.

122
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 3: I did a spittick. I was like, whoa, it's one

123
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,799
Speaker 3: thing for DeAndre Hunter to be hitting some three pointers.

124
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 3: He's in a groove obviously a little more committed defensively.

125
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 3: You I can't remember many times Trey watching DeAndre Hunter,

126
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 3: who many times I've called maybe the most overrated player

127
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 3: in this league or the most disappointing player. Do that

128
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 3: that jumped out to me, like, holy crap, Yeah, he

129
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 3: is locked in this entire team. Is everybody contributing about that?

130
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 3: The Hunter? I think he had Charles Barkley saying this

131
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 3: guy's gonna be an All Star Nile is like a

132
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 3: quick turnaround for the hundred Hunter.

133
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: It feels like we've got a lot of war candidates

134
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: right now for the Hawks, because I'm like, if they

135
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: play this well until we get to the All Star break,

136
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: they're gonna have at least one All Star. Is it

137
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,720
Speaker 1: Trey Young, who you assume is the leader of the team,

138
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: or is it Jalen Johnson who's having an awesome season?

139
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: Is it DeAndre Hunter who him going to the bench

140
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: completely turned around the Hawks season? Then you get into

141
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: the MIP race. Is it Jalen Johnson or is it

142
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,039
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hunter? Deondre hunters in year six and suddenly he's good.

143
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: That's amazing. Him going to the bench was so huge

144
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 1: because he's a decent defender. I wouldn't say he's a

145
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: good defender, but he's a good defender when he's on

146
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 1: the bench, and he's a good defender when he doesn't

147
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 1: have to guard the number one ball handler that's Dice

148
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: and Daniel's job.

149
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

150
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 3: And then and Hunter has a chance to win six

151
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 3: Man of the Year the way this is going too.

152
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh absolutely. And he was monstrous in this game,

153
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 4: just being able to outdo the Knixt bench. The Hawk's

154
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 4: bench was just so much better than the k next

155
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 4: bench for the Hawks. What a monstrous number. I mean,

156
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 4: DeAndre Hunter just looks like a different player coming off

157
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 4: the bench. He really literally looks like an All Star.

158
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 4: I think that's what Charles bark Lee is watching what

159
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 4: we did. And yeah, Trey Young is probably going to

160
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 4: get that accolade. But there this is a game like

161
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 4: many of their games where treeng doesn't shoot all that well.

162
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 4: He shot thirty six percent from the floor, but he

163
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 4: did good enough things setting up guys like four big

164
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 4: assists in the first few minutes of that third quarter

165
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 4: to start setting things up and Resachet goes to the bench.

166
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 4: As I said, DeAndre Hunter comes in, who plugged in

167
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 4: extremely well. And yakakong Wu comes in for Clin Capella

168
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 4: just look in a little past his age, but on

169
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 4: yakakong Wu was awesome, grabbing five offense arios Bob then

170
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 4: Badanovic comes on, had a huge recovery block in this game.

171
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 4: So those guys just had some serious effort. And you

172
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 4: probably think of the defense with this Atlanta Hawks team,

173
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 4: like the last few weeks, as you said, they've played

174
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 4: above their level, their top ten defense the last few weeks.

175
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 4: What you wouldn't think that? And you think Dyson Daniels

176
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 4: must have had a billion steals. He leads the league

177
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 4: in steels, he leads the league in deflections. He had

178
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 4: zero steals in this game. But he just played a

179
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 4: damn good job against Jalen Brunston. It was just there.

180
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 4: He was just there as that tertiary guy who I mean,

181
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 4: I thought the secondary playmaker was Jalen Johnson got it

182
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 4: going in that second half. Who's monstrous in that line

183
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 4: from him.

184
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 3: Is twenty one point fifteen seven assists. That's becoming like

185
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 3: very normal for him too. H couse type of numbers.

186
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,839
Speaker 4: Steels and a couple of blocks too. Yeah.

187
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 3: So Trey Young at the end of the game, after

188
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 3: you know they got the victory, he's got the ball

189
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 3: at half court, decides to shoot some dice there on

190
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 3: the Nick's logo in MSG playing a little craps, he said, quote,

191
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 3: I planned that one with my little brother a few

192
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 3: days ago. You could tell you how to chase yes,

193
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 3: because he was so almost fumbled what he was going

194
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 3: to do with the ball, what hand he was going

195
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 3: to shoot the dice with? But what did you think

196
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 3: of that? TK? And I guess he also had like

197
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 3: the point when he hit a bomb there in the

198
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 3: third quarner, when he had his little mini run. You

199
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 3: know he's leaning into being the villain in Madison Square Gun.

200
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was skipping after the DeAndre Hunter Alley oop.

201
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 1: Earlier in the day he had said, I don't like

202
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: being the villain.

203
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 4: What a liar.

204
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: The guy had a Vegas themed celebration plan with an

205
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 1: explanation for what was going on. Back to back eights,

206
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 1: good roles for Tray, But yeah, that was awesome. That's

207
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: why he's going to be a villain in Madison Square

208
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: Garden until he retires. Yeah, he really is the Regie

209
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: Miller of our generation. And it's craped Reggie was, but

210
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 1: this generation Regie Miller.

211
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 3: And I like it because so many times you're talking

212
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 3: about all these guys the brotherhood. They all love each

213
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 3: other and they dab each other up. And not that

214
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 3: they like the Knicks players hate Trey, but it's fun

215
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 3: to have a fan base that's like, not this guy, anybody,

216
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 3: but this guy. And look, he said he didn't eat.

217
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 3: It wasn't even a lights out trade game, but he

218
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 3: so obviously he's like leaned into being more of a playmaker,

219
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 3: picking his spots more and he hit. He started that

220
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 3: timely run and then of course finished it off.

221
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm kind of glad he was three of eleven

222
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 4: in the second half. He wasn't lights out because the

223
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 4: celebration when it came earlier, the oh I'm the iceman

224
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 4: who it came a little bit earlier and may have

225
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 4: got under the Knicks skin a little bit too early,

226
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 4: I think, But he was so damn good at setting

227
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 4: guys up. Nine assists in that second half, and he

228
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 4: adores being a villainy. I think he really loves it

229
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 4: because he's damn good at it. But he's also good

230
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 4: at setting up these guys, and now that they have

231
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 4: Jalen Johnson as a secondary playmaker at Dyson Daniels to

232
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 4: do that, and then off the bench come guys who

233
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 4: can score all of a sudden, DeAndre Hunter and bug Down.

234
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 4: They're a complete team.

235
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 3: So are the Hawks the surprise team here of the

236
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 3: tournament when you consider that they did knock off the

237
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 3: defending champ Celtics and the then NBA leading Cleveland Cavaliers

238
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 3: in the same group to reach this knockout stage and

239
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,599
Speaker 3: then to advance to Vegas. I know the Rockets have

240
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 3: a bit of a Cinderella run here too, but they've

241
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 3: been really good all year. Are the Hawks the Cinderella

242
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 3: Cup team?

243
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 4: I think so?

244
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: I did so I wonder what they're I should have checked,

245
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: But their record before Cup play even started, because it's

246
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: kind of been in concert with group plays starting in

247
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: the Cup. But they really turned it on here and

248
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: they've beaten like three of the best teams in the

249
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: Eastern Conference, any of which they could potentially see in

250
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: the playoffs further on down the road, right.

251
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 4: Like they could be the five.

252
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: Seed to any of these teams finishing in the four

253
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: or something like that. So cool, just a.

254
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 3: Point any other any other knick stots or anything like

255
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 3: that from what you saw from them, you know, foul

256
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 3: trouble for call Anthony talents. He had a monster line

257
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 3: in the end nineteen nineteen year. He talked about Brunson.

258
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 3: I think Daniels if he didn't turn the Brunsen burner

259
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 3: completely off, but he diminished it, flame went down. I

260
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 3: think he shot five or fifteen and he was in

261
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 3: a bit of a jail there all night.

262
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 4: Anything else, I mean, the Hawks defense was monstrous. I

263
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 4: think they are sort of like the Indiana Pacers were

264
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 4: last year going into the NBA Cup. There are this

265
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,839
Speaker 4: year's Pacers team being able to go to Vegas. That's

266
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 4: what feels like. Although the Pacers did it with offense

267
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 4: and the Hawks again holding the next to one hundred

268
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 4: points on ninety nine possessions, I would make them the

269
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 4: worst team in the league offensively. So that was just

270
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 4: a different, different lineup, a different setup than the Pacers.

271
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 4: Although I did want to see when Canthony Towns you know,

272
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 4: got into foul trouble or Jaylen Brunson wasn't having his game.

273
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 4: I wanted to see the mckel bridges. I know he

274
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 4: hasn't been that guy. He hasn't been what they thought

275
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 4: they were getting in Brooklyn, what they thought I guess

276
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 4: they're getting when they dropped all these draft picks for him,

277
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 4: But to take over a little bit, I mean, he

278
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 4: had a good game overall, but there need to be there,

279
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 4: needed to be another guy, and he was not that

280
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,959
Speaker 4: guy unfortunately. And obviously they want their defense come back,

281
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 4: and Mitch Robinson's gonna be a part of that. But yeah,

282
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 4: I just wanted to see a little bit more mckel

283
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 4: didn't happen.

284
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 3: Were you gonna be wearing that T shirt when you're

285
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 3: in Vegas walking around High five and all the Hawks

286
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 3: fans and in beautiful Nevana?

287
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 4: Which Hawks fans are going to be there? That is

288
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 4: the question, that's a question.

289
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 3: You might be the only one in a Hawks.

290
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: I don't know.

291
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 4: Well, there were some tree young fans in Madison Square Garden.

292
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 4: Now we're cheering, will they be getting on a plane

293
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 4: to go to Atlanta?

294
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 3: All right?

295
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 4: Trey brought it up yesterday that he's going to be

296
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 4: packing some Hawk stuff, So I thought of that, like, oh, yes,

297
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 4: I'm putting this on. I'm putting on my Malcolm Delaney jersey.

298
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 3: Wow, I know you'll be the only person in Yeah. Wow.

299
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 4: The Hawks unleash those uniforms with the patterns on them

300
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 4: in the in the vault. Yeah, those ones that they

301
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 4: had the mix and match shorts and jersey. It feels

302
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 4: like a billion years ago.

303
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 3: Is that? Is that a game used jersey? Why is

304
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 3: there a Malcolm Delaney jersey.

305
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 4: That I guess they were there practicing the printing process. Yes,

306
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 4: I mean that's a freebe at NBA team, That's what

307
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 4: that was.

308
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: They sent me. They sent me a Ben Simmons six

309
00:13:56,080 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 1: ers one same difference put that. But yeah, it's gonna

310
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: be a major Atlanta weekend. The Falcon's play Funday Night

311
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: football in Las Vegas. Wow against the Raiders.

312
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 3: So it was a Saturday.

313
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be Hawks now Sunday and Monday. I'll be

314
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: wearing my Sunday's gear courtesy and my guy Larry, who

315
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: was not coming. You thought maybe Larry was coming. He's

316
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: a guy that could have a Malcolm Delaney jersey. He's

317
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: not going to be there.

318
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 3: Should we bring waffle House or something like that with us?

319
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: They don't have one there.

320
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 3: I don't think so.

321
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, you could think they'd be a perfect place twenty four.

322
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 3: Hours, come on, yeah, I don't think they do.

323
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: It's open one day.

324
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 4: We got to get Grishammart to get us some tickets

325
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 4: for the Las Vegas football team.

326
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 3: He's not They're not coming easy. I had an update

327
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 3: last night.

328
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 4: On the football ticket.

329
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, on the football team he's got He's got two,

330
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 3: but that is for him and his son. Okay, okay,

331
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 3: he's working on others. I know he's got some exchange

332
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 3: programs going on with them. Tickets TVD, okay, TVD. I

333
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 3: mean we can also just buy them. I don't know

334
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 3: how much Hawks or it's like one hundred day gets

335
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 3: Raiders together? An't the Raiders garbage?

336
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like four hundred levels or one hundred.

337
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 3: Oh okay, okay, we'll find out.

338
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 4: I was looking.

339
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 3: Let's talk about the other game from last night in

340
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 3: the Association, the Rockets advancing to the to the semi finals,

341
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 3: excuse me, with a controversial finish which sort of left

342
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 3: the Warriors and their fan base, especially their coach, stunt.

343
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 3: We have the clip here. I'll set it up for everybody.

344
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 3: Warriors up by one. In the final seconds, Kurry misses

345
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 3: a three point attempt. There's a scramble for the loose ball.

346
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 3: Bodies hit the floor. Gary Payton the second, gets possession

347
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 3: of the rebound, but Van Vliet sort of slides on

348
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 3: top of him, so GP two flings it to Kaminga

349
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 3: at the free throw line. Kaminga and Jalen Green hit

350
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 3: the floor for the loose ball, and Kaminga is called

351
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 3: for a personal foul with three point five seconds left.

352
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 3: Steve Kerr in disbelief, new Steve Kerr meme has dropped.

353
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 3: Green would go to the line and bury both free

354
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 3: throws to give them the lead. And then they held

355
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 3: on at the end, you know, doing a good job

356
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 3: taking the ball from Curry, and well Curry got it,

357
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 3: flipped it right back to Pojemski and he was blocked

358
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 3: at the end. But curR very pissed off with this

359
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 3: call on Kaminga for that loose ball scrum. He said, quote,

360
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 3: I'm pissed off. I wanted to go to Las Vegas.

361
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 3: We wanted to win this Cup and we aren't going

362
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 3: because of a loose ball foul eighty feet from the

363
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 3: basket with the game on the line, I've never seen

364
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 3: anything like it in my life, and that was ridiculous.

365
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 3: He had a lot more to say. I think he

366
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 3: compared it to like they wouldn't call that like in

367
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 3: an elementary school game type of thing. He also said,

368
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 3: and I think the real reason why he was pissed off.

369
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 3: This game was a wrestling match for a majority of it.

370
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 3: There's not a lot of free throws. They were sort

371
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 3: of letting the boys play. And then you call this

372
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 3: sort of at the end. But what did you think

373
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 3: of the call from Bill Kennedy there on the foul?

374
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 3: I guess I'm cominga.

375
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 4: There, Oh, Billy. I did not agree. I thought, yes,

376
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 4: he grabbed his arm, I grab his shoulder. But that's

377
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 4: something you just don't call. And I understand why Steve

378
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,440
Speaker 4: said that. You don't see that called on the floor.

379
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,880
Speaker 4: You don't see whistles called like that. Steve thought about

380
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 4: her for a second, said oh, yeah, I did see

381
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 4: it thirty years ago in a game.

382
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yeah, cool, great, And then a lot of

383
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 3: Warriors fans saying, like, how was it much different than

384
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 3: what Van Vliet did to Gary Payton? The second sort

385
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 3: of you know, we see this a lot right, the

386
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 3: first guy hits the floor for the loose ball, grabs it, incomes,

387
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 3: the opposition sort of dives on the guy dog to

388
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 3: try and tie it up. Yeah, and a lot of

389
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 3: times you don't see it called. And that's, I guess, well,

390
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 3: pretty similar to what coming into John Green. Maybe he

391
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 3: was on his shoulder more, but yeah, it's it's shocking

392
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 3: and he was very upset.

393
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 4: Tray, I think he may have also just been upset

394
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 4: at his Warriors offense.

395
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 3: Yes he should be, and we can get into that,

396
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 3: but the call itself did decided in the end, at

397
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 3: least Jill and Green going to the free throw line track.

398
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think unfortunately, everybody's right here, Like.

399
00:17:58,200 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 3: I'm with you.

400
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: I think Bill Kennedy may the right call. That was

401
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,360
Speaker 1: a foul, especially the way he described it. He did

402
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,239
Speaker 1: like the r motion that kaminga dad and then you

403
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: watch back the replay and it's identical like he did,

404
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 1: like Bill Kennedy, incredible body control to be able to

405
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: do the exact same foul, but also could have been

406
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: a foul on Fred Vandleet doing the same thing to

407
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: Gary Payton the second and only nineteen total free throws. Yeah,

408
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: this game, including those two. This was a super physical game,

409
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: so kind of odd to see it not get called

410
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 1: on Fred Vandleet and then called seconds later on Jonathan Kaminga.

411
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: So unfortunately, when everybody's right, the call has to stay

412
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: the way it did, and it didn't go the way

413
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: that the Warriors wanted it.

414
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 3: So yeah, Bill Kennedy explained to a pool reporter after

415
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,640
Speaker 3: the game, quote, the defender makes contact with the neck

416
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 3: and shoulder area. Name of Bill, say his name Bill,

417
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 3: and they're warrning a personal foul to be called. That's

418
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 3: just thinking.

419
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 4: The referees are really expanding their vocabulary and what they're

420
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 4: saying on the mic. It feel like it feels like

421
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 4: they're almost becoming UFC referees in away like they are.

422
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 4: They're just explaining what they're saying, and they're really getting

423
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 4: into it. Uh and they're good at it. Uh. And

424
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 4: I think they could also have a third voice talking

425
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 4: to them from Secacas, from the replay center saying this

426
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 4: is what we're seeing. And then Bill Kennedy gets on

427
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 4: the mic in the entire arena, here's what he's saying.

428
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 4: So it's really changing. So that's that's fine. It's fine.

429
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 4: You know in a weird way that that was. It's

430
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 4: unfortunate that that's the way to.

431
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 3: No one wants to gain, nobody wants like that. That's

432
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 3: what her is getting accurate, is like you let these

433
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 3: guys go crazy for yeah, for forty seven minutes and

434
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 3: fifty seven seconds. Uh, and then suddenly we're gonna call

435
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 3: Like the guys are like, they're all hitting the floor

436
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 3: for the ball. Like even Kurr was like, give them

437
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 3: the time out. Yeah, Like, don't don't decide it, don't

438
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 3: call the foul, just say just say Rockets, time out,

439
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 3: give them the ball. At least you can at least

440
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,160
Speaker 3: sort of you can swallow that a little bit easier.

441
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 4: I think you can ridicule the Warriors and say, why

442
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 4: didn't you call a time out? Why didn't Garrett Why? Yes?

443
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 4: And Steve Kerr could have been called for technical I

444
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 4: mean the guy was on the floor basically arguing either way. Yeah,

445
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 4: it is unfortunate. At the same time, I was happy

446
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 4: to see defense for all those people who say, oh,

447
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 4: they don't play defense anymore. The last few minutes, those

448
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 4: Houston Rockets eight up the Golden State Warriors. They were

449
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 4: up seven points with three and a half minutes left,

450
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 4: and then they were outscored nine to one the rest

451
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 4: of the way, just because the Rockets were awesome. They

452
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 4: were so good at I mean possession after possession after possession.

453
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 4: Jalen Green was guarding Steph Curry ate him up, so

454
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 4: the ball gets to Draymond Green in the corner, comes

455
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 4: into the middle, misses a shot and the airball. Really

456
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 4: Next one, Curry couldn't get it off a shot shot

457
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,439
Speaker 4: clock violation. Next one, Draymond Green passed the cominga went

458
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 4: out of bounds unfortunately. Next one, Steph Curry missed a

459
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 4: step back three. Those kind of close. And then the

460
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 4: next one was the Brandon Pajemski shot that did not

461
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 4: go down. I mean they it was just miss miss

462
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 4: after missus. Houston was awesome.

463
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, that Draymond Green was a terrible turnover to the

464
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 3: cutting kaminga a couple possession apart. What do you think

465
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 3: of Steph Curry's shot that's getting some blowback here this morning,

466
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 3: Like what do you do in Steph, you know, pretty

467
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 3: early taking that shot. Any issue with the greatest shooter

468
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,879
Speaker 3: of all time taking the step back three or what

469
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 3: do you think I made?

470
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 4: It was a good look.

471
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 1: How many times has Steph Curry hit that shot and

472
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 1: then gone for the night night. That's what he was

473
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: trying to do. He was trying to end the game.

474
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: There should have ran the clock out because the ball

475
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 1: had been in the air long enough. If he held it,

476
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 1: the Warriors got the ball back twenty seven seconds left.

477
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:31,880
Speaker 1: Steph Curry has a lot of arc on his shot

478
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: by the time it hits the rim and rebounds off.

479
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 1: Think about how much time went off the clock in

480
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: the situation it did. They could have obviously won this

481
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: game had Curry hung on to the ball, or if

482
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: he shot the ball better in the fourth quarter one

483
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,400
Speaker 1: for four from the field. They got threes from kaminga

484
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,439
Speaker 1: from Pajenski, from Lindy Waters in the fourth quarter. The

485
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 1: support players showed up for the Warriors in this game.

486
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: Curry did not have a good game. If he plays

487
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 1: an average game, this is an easy win for Golden State.

488
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: But it was a turnover festival. He never looked comfortab well.

489
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: I didn't think he had a nice little moment in

490
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,919
Speaker 1: the third quarter where he had a couple of back

491
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 1: to back three point plays. I think that was nice,

492
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 1: But the Rockets were just all over the Warriors. Twenty

493
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 1: two turnovers for Golden State turned into thirty points for Houston.

494
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,360
Speaker 1: They forced six shot clock violations in this game.

495
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, incredible, so many in the fourth Yeah, there was

496
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 3: multiple Warriors shot clock violations. Great defense from the Rockets,

497
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 3: for sure.

498
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 4: You had literally those possessions that I went through. There's

499
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 4: two shot clock violations in the last three minutes. That's

500
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 4: defense man. And Steph Curry had an opportunity when I

501
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 4: said he couldn't get a step back three, he had

502
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 4: an opportunity to take one with a minute forty left

503
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 4: if he really just let it bomb from twenty eight feet,

504
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 4: if he was in that flow. But the Houston Rockets

505
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 4: did a freaking good job at making him feel uncomfortable

506
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 4: and that set the tone for the rest of the game.

507
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 4: And that's why Steph didn't shoot that and that's why

508
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 4: the Golden State Warriors didn't get loose. I mean, that's

509
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 4: why we all look and we say, Jimmy Butler could

510
00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 4: be used on that team, or you know, some sort

511
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 4: of third offensive player.

512
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 3: Could have been used in that football game last night.

513
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 3: For sure. He would have been loving that one for sure.

514
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 3: The way how physical they're playing. I mean, that's the thing.

515
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 3: My takeaways from both those games last night were one.

516
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 3: This cup worked, man, it just did. Like this is

517
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 3: mid December, and these teams, especially the Hawks, and the

518
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 3: way you saw the Rockets and how upset the Warriors

519
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 3: are here. They play hard. They are playing harder to

520
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 3: advance to Vegas, obviously get more money for some of

521
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 3: their guys to maybe win this thing. So that works.

522
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 3: And then you said it tasks like there's been a

523
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 3: lot of talk like I don't like the NBA anymore.

524
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 3: It's just teams bombing threes left and right. It's like

525
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 3: this has a little bit more of a playoff atmosphere

526
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 3: to it, where the defense is cranked up a little bit.

527
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 3: And now some of these are really good defensive teams.

528
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 3: So with the Hawks suddenly becoming one over the last

529
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 3: couple of weeks, that sort of that quiets those haters,

530
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:49,880
Speaker 3: I guess too a little bit. This is not that

531
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 3: this was not that. This was a bit of a

532
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 3: dog fight here.

533
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 4: The dads and the grandpas who watched basketball al must

534
00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 4: have liked this. It was ugly from both sides.

535
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 3: I was gonna say the basketball last night was not

536
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 3: pretty but in a weird way. It was entertaining.

537
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, yeah, and Golden s they played great. D

538
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,160
Speaker 4: I mean Draymond Green blocked Jalen Green in the corner

539
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 4: with two plus minutes left. That was Green on Green crime.

540
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 4: That was nice. Buddy healed, Buddy healed.

541
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: He was nice. Yeah.

542
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 4: I don't remember this many good defensive plays. I mean

543
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 4: he had a block from behind. Yeah, he stole it

544
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 4: from Sheng Gun when Sheng Gun didn't see him in

545
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 4: the sort of the backcourt. He poked a steal from

546
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 4: Shannggun on another opportunity. Who I thought was the monstrous

547
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 4: difference in this I was.

548
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,159
Speaker 3: Gonna say, let's get to Shenggon. He was too long

549
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,239
Speaker 3: on there. Twenty six points in thirty two minutes, ten

550
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,120
Speaker 3: of eighteen from the floor, six to seven at the line,

551
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 3: eleven boards, five assists, three steals. He had that one.

552
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 3: I guess that basket was on Looney right, that one

553
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 3: right down the stretch, just sort of like, no, I'm

554
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,919
Speaker 3: gonna get by you. I'm strong enough. He finished inside.

555
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 4: He was.

556
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 3: He was the difference maker in this game where there

557
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 3: wasn't a lot of points. He's been awesome. He's an

558
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:56,959
Speaker 3: all Star for the Houston Rockets.

559
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he would be there. All Star had

560
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: that beautiful dish as well, the no look to maybe

561
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,680
Speaker 1: Eason underneath the Easton or Thomas, I don't remember who

562
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 1: it was. Got to celebrate the three goggles. Yeah, you

563
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 1: know what that means? Good vision nowadays, that's the thing.

564
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,679
Speaker 4: Everybody who drops a good pass does that.

565
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 1: But I like it very pans Labyrinth, Yeah exactly, but man,

566
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 1: it's awesome. Also, watching Shengoon go against Draymond Green, that

567
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 1: was just cool to watch because Schengguon's a post up player.

568
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: We don't see a lot of post ups every single night,

569
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 1: so Draymond had to throw it back to like early

570
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: twenty tens playing post defense. That's where you see some

571
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: of the problems with the Rockets. It's like their best

572
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: offense down the stretch was We're trying to get post

573
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: buckets on Draymond Green. It wasn't happening. Suddenly Looney comes

574
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 1: in for a sub. Also, I didn't think the Rockets

575
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: want or the Warriors wanted to give up a three,

576
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 1: so they're like, we're not helping at all. Beautiful smitty

577
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: from Shnggun to finish at the rim. I also got

578
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: to get some credit to Jaalen Green. He didn't have

579
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: a good game, five for fifteen from the field, five turnovers,

580
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: made a huge hustle play, and two clutch free throws

581
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 1: to ice it after having a poor game. Those are

582
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,359
Speaker 1: those first two free throws of the night. I mean,

583
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: that guy probablyest thing. I should have got some calls

584
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: last night. Yeah, throwing his body into the lane and

585
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 1: hitting the ground time after time. That was great for

586
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 1: the Rockets to pull this off, to break the streak

587
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: against the Warriors by kind of being the tougher team.

588
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,439
Speaker 1: Like I thought, Tarry Easton was a great leader in

589
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: this one. They had that micd Up clip with him

590
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 1: where he's like insulting everybody, like we got to play

591
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 1: a little better, hit a big three in the fourth quarter.

592
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 1: He was the guy all over Steph Curry on the

593
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 1: inbounds play didn't give him any sort of room to

594
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 1: try any kind of shot. So good stuff up and

595
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: down the roster, I thought.

596
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 3: From Houston, and you saw the celebration after they pulled

597
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 3: out this victory. The crowd was hype, the players were hype,

598
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 3: and they now go on to Vegas. We've got the

599
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 3: bracket here for you. Our two matchups are set. We

600
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 3: do know that the Eastern Conference semifinals matchup will be

601
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 3: the first game on Saturday. As soon as we touched

602
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 3: down in Vegas, we're gonna have to hustle over there

603
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 3: to catch that verse that starts at like one thirty

604
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 3: local time, four thirty Eastern. But it's Bucks Hawks, and

605
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 3: then I guess we gotta leave the arena and then

606
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 3: come back in a little bit later for thunder Rockets.

607
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 3: You have a favorite in this task. You're still sticking

608
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 3: with Oka see to get it done, even though Houston

609
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 3: has beat them. Who are you picking to win the Cup?

610
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:09,399
Speaker 3: Perry call your shot?

611
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 4: Well, I'm excited to see the Hawks first and foremost.

612
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,919
Speaker 4: Getting off the airplane, I'm definitely gonna be wearing my

613
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,919
Speaker 4: Hawks gear. Wow, make sure everybody make sure you were

614
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,400
Speaker 4: your Hawks here because we don't have a lot of time.

615
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 3: Do you think you'll say something on the flight?

616
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 1: There's no hands.

617
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 3: Who's going to the NBA Cup game in Vegas today?

618
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 3: Where are the Hawks fans at?

619
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 4: What's the line? What's the Veggas line on that? There's

620
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 4: gonna be a lie you there's yeah, I will say

621
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 4: no chance plus yeah, plus ten plus ten thousand.

622
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 3: I could talk to them, you know, say something when

623
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 3: I get on. Okay, so are you're excited for the Hawks?

624
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,239
Speaker 3: You think the Hawk's gonna win this whole thing?

625
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 4: Well, who knows. I think they have a chance of

626
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 4: winning against Milwaukee Bucks.

627
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 3: They do against Tory and Prince of Darvin Ham undefeated

628
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 3: and cup playing good luck.

629
00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: Man Hawk's legends.

630
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, see, he's clearly the favorite.

631
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's look, it's one and done. It's sort

632
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 3: of like anything can happen in a basketball game. That's

633
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 3: why we have the best of seven series. You more

634
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 3: times than not get the better team advancing. But these

635
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,879
Speaker 3: are like you can go cold for a night. But

636
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 3: who you picking? TK?

637
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 1: I mean, the Thunder are the favorites. I think they're

638
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 1: gonna win. Okay, yeah, okay, but I'm looking forward to

639
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: that game Thunder Rocks.

640
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:22,160
Speaker 4: Here.

641
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: The question is, like, the Thunder have a couple of

642
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: go to guys. Like the Thunder and Rockets are very

643
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: similar teams to me, like the way they're built with long,

644
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 1: active defenders who are young, great defense. But on the

645
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,400
Speaker 1: other side, okay, se has an MVP candidate and a Superstar.

646
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: But look, so did the Warriors. He didn't show up

647
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 1: in the game. So if Shay has a poor shooting night,

648
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: Houston could do it.

649
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 3: All right, Very excited. We'll be in Vegas come Saturday.

650
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 3: We'll be doing a podcast soon after those two semi

651
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 3: final games, so obviously make sure you subscribe if you

652
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 3: haven't already.

653
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 4: Okay, very quick, drop some drop some notes on that game.

654
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 4: Rockets warrise alburn sheng Gun congratulating or shaking hands with

655
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 4: Draymond green after the game. Surprised. I did some some

656
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 4: mouth reading. I think albrin chen Good said, I love

657
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 4: your game. He gave a lot of respect to Draymont

658
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 4: Greene after they were going head to head battling on

659
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 4: the inside, So that's the respect. It's also showing how

660
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 4: shng Gun is.

661
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: He's grown.

662
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 4: He's really grown up. He looks like a different player

663
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 4: out there. Also, just randomly, did you see Pat Spencer

664
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 4: number sixty one for the Golden State Warriors wearing the

665
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 4: long sleeve undershirt under his jersey. Frankly, I thought that

666
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 4: was a fan for half a sex, right, I mean

667
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 4: not sure not to be racist, the racist play about

668
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 4: the white guy on the bench, but it did look

669
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 4: like that guy get there.

670
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 3: Yeah he played a couple of minutes.

671
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, why he did fine, But why you.

672
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 1: Don't got to play all your guys.

673
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's about it. I mean Albern schn guns, I

674
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 4: just had a note that on his free throw routine.

675
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 4: It's good for him how he kind of bounces it

676
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 4: in his fingers before he lets it rip. Like I

677
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 4: don't know, I kind of it would irk me with

678
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 4: the ball because I just I don't have the touch

679
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 4: that Alprin Shengun does. But he kind of just she

680
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 4: gets it on the tips of his fingers and then

681
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 4: he is ready to rip it and then he rips it.

682
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 4: You know, it's different. It's just different, that's all I

683
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 4: gotta say.

684
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 3: I don't know. He must be.

685
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 1: He's a good touch, wasn't it. Didn't the BA do

686
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: that too?

687
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 4: Like you like yeah yeah yeah, hand to hand.

688
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's uh, well, he's improved drastically from last year.

689
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 3: He was sub seventy percent. He's up to seventy seven percent.

690
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 3: Alprin Schngu, that'll do, keep keep tipping and fundling the ball.

691
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 4: I don't know.

692
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 3: All right, let's get to some news Toronto Raptors forward

693
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 3: Scottie Barnes has a sprained right ankle. That is confirmed.

694
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 3: The team announced it Wednesday. Uh, the injury will be

695
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 3: reassessed in a week and then updated as necessary after that,

696
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 3: but he's likely going to miss multiple weeks of action.

697
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 3: You're shaking your head.

698
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 4: This is this is phenomenal. I mean phenomenally in a

699
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 4: bad way, obviously, But to keep seeing these that's the

700
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 4: phenomenal part. To keep seeing an injury after an injury,

701
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 4: it's like a death by a thousand cuts. I mean

702
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 4: it's over and over and over and over again.

703
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, the whole freaking team.

704
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 4: I wanted to see their top three guys in Barnes,

705
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 4: Quickly and Barrett play together. They haven't played in ten

706
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 4: months together. They made these big moves to try and

707
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 4: see what younger players could do. Again, that's a long

708
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:42,719
Speaker 4: time to not play together. And this season after Quickly

709
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 4: went down in the first game, he went under it

710
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 4: was over sort of Daris Garland and then fell to

711
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 4: the ground. And then after that pelvic injury, he heard

712
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 4: his ucl his elbow. That the classic baseball injury that's

713
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 4: going around right now.

714
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, he's played like two and a half games, yeah, quickly, so.

715
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 4: They haven't other sarring point guard Scutie Parton's in and out,

716
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 4: you know, broke the orbital when Jokic smacked him in

717
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 4: the face, unfortunately, and with his goggles there he turns

718
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 4: on his ankle. I mean, this is it's over and

719
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 4: over and Rgie Bird has been awesome, but there's a

720
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 4: there's a bit of a drop off. I know, guys

721
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 4: are Jonathan Mobile has been great, Greaty Dick has been

722
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 4: great at times. Shed's been great at times. He's got

723
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,959
Speaker 4: a lot of guys chipping in. So I do feel

724
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 4: like this is one of the better teams that towards

725
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 4: the bottom of the standings. It's just just painful to

726
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 4: see it over and over and over and over and

727
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 4: over and over and over and over and over and

728
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 4: over again. Is I feel like Mike Brown doing that

729
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 4: press conference, I repeating myself after possession, Yeah, possession after possession,

730
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 4: because it is injury after injury after injury.

731
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 3: And Barnes was when he was out there setting career

732
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 3: highs and points and rebounds assists, he was averaging like

733
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 3: twenty one, eight and eight basically, and his three pointer

734
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 3: had been coming around as of late too, so that

735
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 3: was nice. But you know he's gone again, Tray. They

736
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 3: went two and nine without him, those eleven games he

737
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 3: missed with the fracture to the face that included a

738
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 3: tough road strike, a five game road trip. Excuse me,

739
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 3: but you know Davion Mitchell now basically will get the

740
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 3: start at point guard because that's sort of what Barnes

741
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 3: is and you go from there. But yeah, no quickly,

742
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 3: I guess they got Kelly Olynnock back from his back injury.

743
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 3: But Cowboy Bruce Brown hasn't mounted up once, has left

744
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 3: a saloon, so you know he's recovering from a knee surgery.

745
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 3: It's just a disappointing ear for the raps.

746
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's sad. We're gonna miss Bruce Brown at Cowboy

747
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: Christmas in Las Vegas. It ends on Saturday when.

748
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 3: We arrive Cowboy Christmas. Go on that.

749
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 1: Well, it's the World Rodeo Finals in Las Vegas, right

750
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: December fifth through fourteenth. If I'm not mistaken, do you

751
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 1: think do you think Bruce Brown knew that heading into

752
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 1: like group play, Yes.

753
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 3: And he was like, guys, you gotta get me to Vegas.

754
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 3: Get me to Vegas.

755
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: I'm already packed, let's go. So sad for him, sad

756
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 1: for the Raptors. A lot of bad luck injuries for Barnes.

757
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: He missed the end of last season right with a

758
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 1: broken hand, Like that's a freak injury. Getting hit in

759
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 1: the face, broken face that is to landing on a foot,

760
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 1: bad stuff. Good for the Raptors draft pick. I think

761
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 1: will remain in the bottom five.

762
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 3: This is true. This is true. Uh, go to tankathon

763
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 3: dot com every day and give it one sim I've

764
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 3: won once for the Raptors to get Cooper flag, so

765
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 3: more times than not, the Raptors are dropping. So yeah,

766
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,439
Speaker 3: that's never good. But you know, I have bad luck,

767
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 3: so who knows.

768
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 4: I think Bruce Brown could take a flight and get

769
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 4: to Las Vegas while he's not playing if he wanted to,

770
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:24,319
Speaker 4: right to go.

771
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: That's actually a good point. They got time off, right,

772
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:27,439
Speaker 1: lots of time off they do.

773
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:29,359
Speaker 3: They do so much time off.

774
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 4: Just a quick flight to go see the Rodeos or whatever.

775
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 4: I guess can we ask grish that?

776
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, Jesus, why not go ahead?

777
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 4: We have we have days in Vegas between the semifinals

778
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 4: and the finals. I know there won't be a rodeo

779
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 4: going on, but we do have two hours in between

780
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 4: each of the semi finals.

781
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 3: Right right, right? Well, are you gonna go see the

782
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 3: Grand Canyon or something like that? You want to go?

783
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 3: I want to take a helicopter ride. I don't think,

784
00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 3: but I.

785
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 4: Thought we're gonna a TV. There are some rumors up there.

786
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 3: Well, we always talk about doing go karts that we

787
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 3: never do. Maybe this is the year we finally go

788
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 3: do go karts?

789
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:07,439
Speaker 4: JD.

790
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 3: What do you think? Come on?

791
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm in.

792
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:12,279
Speaker 1: We say that every year.

793
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta lead it.

794
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 4: Oh, I have to let it all right, We're.

795
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 3: Going going cart and sweet I'll be there all right.

796
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,320
Speaker 3: Other piece of news here in a poll of forty

797
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 3: executives around the NBA conducted by the Athletics, Sam Amic,

798
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 3: John Hollinger, Mike Forkinoff the Oklahoma City Thunder Front Office

799
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 3: voted as the league's best with three hundred and fifty

800
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 3: four total points, Celtics finishing second with two point fifty

801
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 3: in points. You know, we're doing the whole like ten

802
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,240
Speaker 3: points for first place, like seven points or second stuff

803
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 3: like that. He coming third one hundred and fourteen points.

804
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 3: The execs were Presidents General managers VP's assistant GMS Trey,

805
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 3: were you surprised at all with the Thunder sort of

806
00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 3: running away with this anonymous poll for these other execs

807
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 3: as the best front office or sort of what you expected?

808
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: How did they not get every vote for first place?

809
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 3: They appeared on thirty nine of the forty ballots and

810
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:11,919
Speaker 3: received twenty nine first place votes.

811
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 4: Yeah.

812
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 1: I think they shore got forty first place votes. Okay,

813
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,360
Speaker 1: they've got an MVP candidate, they're the best team in

814
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: the Western Conference, and they've got the best stash of

815
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,799
Speaker 1: future draft assets. They've got three players that literally any

816
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 1: team would want on their team, and Shay chet and

817
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 1: Jalen Williams. So I think they are clearly the best

818
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 1: front office in the game right now.

819
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 3: Yeah. Within the article, it says Sam Presty's latest Thunder

820
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 3: creation is capable of two things that are typically impossible

821
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:40,399
Speaker 3: to accomplish at the same time, title contention and extreme

822
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 3: flexibility for the future because of all the young talent

823
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 3: and all of the draft picks. And they are one

824
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 3: of the best teams in the league already.

825
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 4: Here, they're stocked for the future. As Trey said, I mean,

826
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 4: the cupboard is full, it's literally flooding with picks the

827
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 4: Boston at number two. It's understandable. Oh yeah, I mean

828
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:02,839
Speaker 4: it is. Working around the Margins. They did a great

829
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 4: job for Brad Stevens and those. He came in with

830
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 4: Jalen Brown and Jason Natum already on the team. Yeah,

831
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 4: Danny Aingel did that. Brad Stevens comes in and worked

832
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,880
Speaker 4: again the Margins to get Drew Holliday, to get Derek White,

833
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 4: so to.

834
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 3: Get Horford, to get Porzingis. Yeah, that's a lot of

835
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 3: moves there too. Add to that to what they became

836
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 3: a championship team around Brown and Tatum. For sure.

837
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 4: It's nice to see Memphis on there.

838
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: Miami, Yeah, I think Miami the Bullet deserves to be third.

839
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,880
Speaker 3: That's interesting. So they yeah, they're in third spot. Is

840
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 3: that just sort of reputation. I guess that's the pat

841
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 3: Riley's been there forever. Obviously he won some championships. He's

842
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:40,760
Speaker 3: been there since ninety five, I think the head boss

843
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 3: and so to win three championships and make it to

844
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:46,399
Speaker 3: seven finals. Yeah, just sort of consistently year after year

845
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,399
Speaker 3: being in the mix. For the most part, I think

846
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 3: that's what it is.

847
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:50,919
Speaker 1: That's a one hundred percent. It is because you can't

848
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,239
Speaker 1: name a Heat transaction in the last two years. That's good.

849
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: They didn't do the Dame trade. They traded for Terry Rose.

850
00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:58,839
Speaker 1: Here he comes off the bench. Now they drafted hawk

851
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 1: as Nice.

852
00:37:59,680 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 4: Nice.

853
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 1: We had a good rookie season, hasn't done much this year.

854
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 1: Yovic hasn't really developed. They are awesome at finding guys

855
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 1: on the scrap heap, but the biggest success they've had

856
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 1: with that one recently is Max Strus and he's on

857
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 1: the Cavaliers. Also Gabe Vincent. He's not on the team

858
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: anymore either, But they do have a long track record

859
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 1: of being awesome with pat Riley there. Eric Spolstro Bino

860
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 1: is one of the top coaches in the league. But

861
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think that in twenty twenty four to

862
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 1: twenty five, the Heat are one of the best front offices.

863
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 4: Right now, yeah, this, this Spolster move is one of

864
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 4: pat Riley's greatest moves, just hiring bez Eric Spolstra, who

865
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 4: turned teams into NBA finalists. Obviously Jimmy did that, a

866
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:40,280
Speaker 4: lot of players did that, but Eric Spolstra has been awesome.

867
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 4: I was a little disappointed to see not to not

868
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 4: see the Atlanta Hawks on there. Just a little bit

869
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 4: of tip to Landry Fields being able to acquire quality

870
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 4: players while at the same time undoing past mistakes by

871
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:59,760
Speaker 4: going and getting Dyson Daniels and undoing the Jontey Murray

872
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:03,439
Speaker 4: move of giving draft pick after draft pick after draft

873
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 4: pick for to John tat Murray, you know, prior to

874
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,799
Speaker 4: him getting the job as GM. It's a great move.

875
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 4: Giving away John Collins to unleash Jalen Johnson. It's a

876
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 4: great move. So that's helped.

877
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 3: Oh, if you do this poll again next year it's

878
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,240
Speaker 3: the yeah and the Hawks make a run here or whatever,

879
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 3: then maybe he gets a little bit of yeah. But

880
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 3: Grizzlies and Wolves were the only other teams that received

881
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,320
Speaker 3: at least one first place vote outside of those top three.

882
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: I actually think the Rockets should be in the top

883
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,279
Speaker 1: ten as well. Okay, a fourth and record night right

884
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 1: now and only okay, SE has better team building going on.

885
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: The Rockets have a like the second biggest pile of

886
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,359
Speaker 1: draft picks waiting. They're obviously a good team right now.

887
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: But okay, SE's a little bit ahead because like we said,

888
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: they got all stars already on their roster, and there's

889
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:47,359
Speaker 1: maybe one on the Houston roster.

890
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, and have already at least previously been to the

891
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:50,840
Speaker 3: postseason one series.

892
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 4: Yes, Raphael Stone and did it again when he signed

893
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:57,879
Speaker 4: that Christian Wood three to whatever it was, twenty five year.

894
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 4: I thought that was a great deal. Didn't worry. But

895
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 4: he's made some good deals. Obviously. They look like this

896
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 4: team that are like Oka see B level, you know,

897
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,439
Speaker 4: a step down, but that same type of team.

898
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 3: All right, final piece of news here, the NBA and

899
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 3: FOEBA are in quote a serious conversation about starting a

900
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:21,280
Speaker 3: new European league, which would likely try to draw top

901
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 3: clubs and compete with the existing EuroLeague. The head of

902
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 3: the international governing body for basketball said, quote, the next

903
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 3: month will show where we are headed in this matter.

904
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 3: He was doing his like sort of annual press conference,

905
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,319
Speaker 3: and this is where this came up. So exploring the

906
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 3: idea of a whole other league, European league backed by

907
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:45,759
Speaker 3: the NBA to possibly compete here with EuroLeague. They have

908
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,920
Speaker 3: any takeaways from this article from Joe Varden at The Athletic.

909
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 4: Well, The thought is that the NBA is good at

910
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 4: globalizing the game and better at putting it on every

911
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 4: social media stream than the euro League has been I mean,

912
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 4: will still exist and still be what it is. But

913
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 4: the NBA is damn good at winning the social stream battle.

914
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 4: I mean, that's part of it. They're trying to globalize

915
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 4: the game. Hence why they go and get Amazon to

916
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 4: be part of this. I mean they're they're they're very

917
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 4: good at that. So that's what part of the comments

918
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 4: were from from my man Andreas Zoglis, who is my

919
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:28,760
Speaker 4: my Greek brother from other mother but right, yeah, the baby.

920
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 4: He basically said, we just need to publicize ourselves more,

921
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 4: and that's where they would get the NBA evolved. Now,

922
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 4: I don't know how a secondary league works exactly, like

923
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 4: how where which teams that that's just a little bit more.

924
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 4: It's a little too so well, look.

925
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 3: For those that don't know, your league is, I mean,

926
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:53,000
Speaker 3: I guess arguably the best league besides the NBA in

927
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 3: the world. It consists of eight team of the continents

928
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:02,399
Speaker 3: continents best teams including team permanent members, and then five

929
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 3: teams that get in by way of qualifying. So we're

930
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 3: talking like your your more permanent members are like your

931
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 3: sort of powerhouse clubs of your League be a FC

932
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:11,840
Speaker 3: Barcelona and Real Madrid and stuff like that, and I

933
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:15,400
Speaker 3: guess they're shareholders in your league, and then they operate

934
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 3: under a license. But that license is expiring in twenty

935
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:20,280
Speaker 3: five twenty six, and a lot of them have not signed.

936
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,280
Speaker 3: So maybe there's an opening here that FOBA is seeing

937
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,879
Speaker 3: and they're seeing dollar dollar bills here and saying, hey,

938
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 3: there's a lot of money to be made over here

939
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 3: in European basketball. NBA, you want in because you're struggling

940
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 3: to grow the game domestically because of the mighty Football

941
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 3: International is the way to go?

942
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 4: Oh, they are growing the game domestically. Did you see

943
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 4: the new TV deal?

944
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 3: TV deal? For sure? The next decade for NBA is

945
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 3: the growth is going to come internationally more than here.

946
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 3: How can it not because there's untapped markets. This is

947
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 3: act example. This is this is what I'm seeing or

948
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 3: reading into. It's like Silver is seeing, like, oh yeah,

949
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 3: there's an opportunity here. Euro League is leaving a lot

950
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 3: of money left on the table. That's what the FOBA.

951
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 1: Okay, so how does building up the EuroLeague and European

952
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 1: basketball help the NBA.

953
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,799
Speaker 3: Well, Silver has openly talked about how he loves the

954
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,879
Speaker 3: European Academy for players and stuff like that to grow

955
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,479
Speaker 3: the game that way. He always talks about that because

956
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 3: he has an infatuation with the soccer development and that's

957
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 3: sort of more of the European way even in basketball

958
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 3: with these clubs. So there's that part.

959
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, to get amongst the grassroots and to get into

960
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:32,480
Speaker 4: the eyeballs of kids. Yes, that makes sense. Yeah, I

961
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 4: just don't know how the teams in league actually works.

962
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:37,839
Speaker 4: Like the NFL has tried NFL Europe in the past,

963
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 4: it hasn't succeeded, but basketball is a global game, so

964
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:43,000
Speaker 4: I could see it.

965
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,680
Speaker 3: Any other thoughts on this? You think this is realistic?

966
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 3: I guess do you see this actually happening here where

967
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 3: the NBA and FOBA create a whole other league to

968
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 3: compete against your league and maybe take some of these

969
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 3: teams that I listed?

970
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,279
Speaker 1: Yeah? Maybe, I guess if there's money to be made.

971
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,319
Speaker 1: The NBA knows how to make money. That seems to

972
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 1: be one of their strengths. But I'm like they tried

973
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 1: G League Ignite because they were jealous of developmental programs

974
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:08,400
Speaker 1: overseas and top notch players going other places, and that

975
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,440
Speaker 1: didn't work out at all. They had no developmental system,

976
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,000
Speaker 1: and they're like, this is actually hurting players, even though

977
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,399
Speaker 1: most of the ignite guys are pretty solid. It turns out,

978
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,279
Speaker 1: so I don't know what that's all about. I hope

979
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,760
Speaker 1: what happens is that this somehow leads to the NBA

980
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,279
Speaker 1: taking stuff from FOBA and becoming more feeble, like from

981
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,680
Speaker 1: the not just the development, but the physicality, the strategy,

982
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 1: the lack of timeouts at the end, and not the

983
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,719
Speaker 1: other way where the FOBA game becomes more like the NBA,

984
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,799
Speaker 1: because that would be a major downgrade. The other thing

985
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 1: that is interest me is that like maybe this down

986
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 1: the road leads to NBA teams playing against European teams

987
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,240
Speaker 1: in games that matter.

988
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I could see that happen. I think the

989
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:52,319
Speaker 4: tournament sort of fantasy kind of works a little bit

990
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:57,280
Speaker 4: more rather than like these intense leagues or a secondary league,

991
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 4: but more of like a branch for the for the

992
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,320
Speaker 4: NBA guys who don't make it here, you know, to

993
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 4: go and play there and then playing these tournaments with

994
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 4: the early I don't think they're going to steal your

995
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:10,879
Speaker 4: league teams. I don't think that can happen. I don't

996
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:12,719
Speaker 4: think it should happen. I think the Early League is

997
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:16,080
Speaker 4: big and functioning and functioning extremely well, so I do

998
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 4: see it more of as a branch like the G

999
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 4: League Ignite were until. I think what happened to the

1000
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 4: G League Knite was the NIL deals that killed them

1001
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,359
Speaker 4: the IMA image and likeness players were able to sign

1002
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:28,120
Speaker 4: and make more money.

1003
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 1: I thought that's why they started the G League Ignite

1004
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 1: was because of the NIL deals. They wanted to give

1005
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: NBA level prospects a way to make money like they

1006
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,919
Speaker 1: would in college. But then the development didn't go well

1007
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:40,719
Speaker 1: for them when they were playing specifically for the G

1008
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 1: League because like they're the Ignite team was like what

1009
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,680
Speaker 1: two and twenty five or something last year the Buzzells team.

1010
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, the developments wasn't good. But then the college money

1011
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,560
Speaker 4: and the NIL money turned up on notch. I mean

1012
00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 4: it went, it went so big it it definitely strengthened

1013
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 4: like the WNBA and players who can actually go get

1014
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 4: paid otherwise from outside their leagues.

1015
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:03,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, but if it's all money, then they could

1016
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,319
Speaker 1: invest the money that they would be using to start

1017
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 1: this league, which is obviously going to be expensive. They

1018
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 1: could pay the Jilliagate Night Moore, if they wanted to

1019
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:12,800
Speaker 1: get on the nil levels. It just I don't understand

1020
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,839
Speaker 1: why they're doing this except for that they can.

1021
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why. I don't think they're going to put

1022
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 4: too much stock, too much money in it. And I

1023
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 4: think it's more just like another G league where you

1024
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:29,080
Speaker 4: play games occasionally in front of these European cities, like tournament,

1025
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,840
Speaker 4: more of a tournament rather than like a league year round.

1026
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 4: I think it's yeah, all.

1027
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 3: Right, let's get to our pick them game for tonight.

1028
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 3: There's only three games on tonight, sort of a very

1029
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 3: weird schedule this week. It's Piston Celtics, It's Raptors at Heat,

1030
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,239
Speaker 3: and then it's our pickham game task Kings at Pelicans.

1031
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, the lines are all pretty juicy, they're pretty big.

1032
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 4: The Celtics favored by twelve and a half at home

1033
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 4: of the Pistons, Heat favored by ten and a half

1034
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,279
Speaker 4: at home. So the Scottie Barnes list Toronto Raptors unfortunately,

1035
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 4: so I went with the other close line, the only

1036
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 4: close line, the Sacramento Kings favored by five and a

1037
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 4: half in New Orleans. That's the closest line you can

1038
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:10,279
Speaker 4: get tray the only one to take the New Orleans

1039
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 4: Pelicans at home plus five and a half. Now, the

1040
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 4: Pelicans have been playing all right, I know, because of

1041
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:19,719
Speaker 4: their season, even worse than Thronto Raptors in terms of injuries.

1042
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:21,759
Speaker 4: Makes it feel like they're not playing all that good.

1043
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:25,160
Speaker 4: Their last three games, they beat the Phoenix Suns, then

1044
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,840
Speaker 4: they lost to the Thunder obviously a fantastic name, a

1045
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:32,520
Speaker 4: fantastic team by ten, and only by five to the Spurs,

1046
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 4: so they would have covered that if it had the

1047
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:38,320
Speaker 4: same line. In a really really, really weird small stat

1048
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 4: the Pelicans were six and o versus the Kings last

1049
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:42,719
Speaker 4: season six and.

1050
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:46,399
Speaker 3: Oh yeah they beat them on the road in the

1051
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 3: quarter final game.

1052
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, the quarterfinal game, and then they ended up playing

1053
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 4: them in the playing game for the actual playoffs, so

1054
00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:56,439
Speaker 4: they got it. So they had an extra game during

1055
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 4: the regular season to make it a five number because

1056
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 4: they were just scheduled for four, but because they played

1057
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 4: in these in Germany, became five, and they play them

1058
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 4: in the plane and became six. So I'm thrown. I mean,

1059
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 4: that's not really a part of the season, that sixth

1060
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 4: the game counts us, damn it, it does. It does it,

1061
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 4: so I can understand why Tray is the only one

1062
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:15,319
Speaker 4: taking The Pelicans got their.

1063
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,200
Speaker 3: Number, and you got some points to play with plus

1064
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 3: five and a half at home everybody else?

1065
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:23,560
Speaker 4: Did you pick it just because everybody else was un Sacramento.

1066
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's spout to be though. That always wins.

1067
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're in great.

1068
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1069
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 3: I thought, hey, you're probably a game clear of a shaft.

1070
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:33,400
Speaker 3: The lost last night. Yeah, incredibly, the Warriors covered.

1071
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:36,680
Speaker 4: Yeahs a one and a half point line.

1072
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,000
Speaker 1: My last two losses and pick them have been the

1073
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,239
Speaker 1: team that I picked, winning and not covering by one point.

1074
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1075
00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:42,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, Lakers.

1076
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 3: It's so funny you go through stretches. That was happening

1077
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 3: to me the last month. I kept losing by one

1078
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,000
Speaker 3: point on the wrong side. Now I got the horseshoe

1079
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:51,799
Speaker 3: up my ass and I keep winning these Yeah, by

1080
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 3: one point.

1081
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:55,360
Speaker 4: I picked the Atlanta Hawks. Yeah. Yeah, you're picking the

1082
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:56,959
Speaker 4: lucky teams just like that works.

1083
00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:59,400
