00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: Yeah we are. Yeah.

15
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 2: No one has ever gone perfect on an All Star weekend.

16
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 2: Will this be the year where one guy nails them all?

17
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna find out. We're also gonna share some worst

18
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 1: of the week numbnees.

19
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, got another great batch and we got some

20
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 2: rapid fire fun at the end. But first, the NBA

21
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: on Thursday night, find the Utah Jazz five hundred thousand

22
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 2: dollars and the Indiana Pacers one hundred thousand dollars, with

23
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 2: the league saying both teams sat healthy players in recent games,

24
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 2: while noting that the moves compromise its integrity will not

25
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 2: be tolerated. Silver coming down here with some fines as

26
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 2: we get ready for All Star weekend. For those that

27
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 2: don't remember, don't know what I'm talking about. The Jazz

28
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: find came due to the team's actions in games against

29
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: the Magic on February seventh, that one was a loss

30
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 2: and the Miami Heat on February ninth, that one was

31
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 2: a win. During them Utah bench stars Lowry Markinen and

32
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 2: Jaron Jackson Junior for the fourth quarter, even though these

33
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 2: players were otherwise able to continue to play in the

34
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 2: outcomes of the games were thereafter in doubt, that's what

35
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 2: the league said. We can get to the Pacers part

36
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 2: of it all, but the Jazz is what everyone is

37
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 2: talking about because we had Jazz owner Ryan Smith with

38
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 2: his backwards cap no doubt on responding on X last

39
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: night with an eye roll emoji and the caption agreed

40
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 2: at disse. Also, we won the game in Miami and

41
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: got fined.

42
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: That makes sense. Bruh br I added the bro what

43
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: do you think?

44
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 2: What do you think her tasks of these fines again

45
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 2: coming down right before All Star weekend on the Jazz

46
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 2: and on the Pacers.

47
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, tough day for the Utah Jazz overall. Jaron Jackson

48
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 4: Junior has season ending surgery and now we're fighting you

49
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 4: five hundred k. I think it happens because their head coach,

50
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 4: Will Hardy was very clear that they were sitting guys

51
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 4: during games. Although I stand by the Jazz is owner,

52
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 4: their governor saying we won games and you didn't mention

53
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 4: the other game, the second game that they won. They

54
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,399
Speaker 4: literally won their last two games. Can Adam Silver basically

55
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 4: say hey, you guys need to play your guys in

56
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 4: fourth quarters. That's the issue here. You're basically telling owners,

57
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 4: you're telling coaches that guys need to play certain times

58
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 4: of a game.

59
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: How do you navigate that slippery slope? No doubt?

60
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I know. My man, Ryan Smith is his name,

61
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 4: owner of Qualtricks. Maybe they can throw that in in

62
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 4: the stats, in in the data, because that's all about data, Qualtricks.

63
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 3: All about debt.

64
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 5: I didn't know you guys were close me and Ryan,

65
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 5: my man.

66
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 4: It's such a generic name, first name Ryan, No doubt.

67
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 3: I don't know either way.

68
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 4: I find it odd that they're trying I thought that

69
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 4: that was circumventing the rules, basically sitting the guys in

70
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter, and that was okay, and they won

71
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 4: games because of that.

72
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 3: That's the odd part.

73
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 4: So I think it really comes down to their head

74
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 4: coach post game saying, yeah, we're sitting guys. We've got

75
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 4: we've got both great things working simultaneously. Our stars are playing.

76
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 4: Their stars were playing, but then they sit in the

77
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 4: fourth quarter. So yeah, to lose, but they just won

78
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 4: their last two games. Same with the Pacers. They got

79
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 4: both got fined after back to back games. I mean,

80
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 4: I know Pacers fans are saying, we're nine to nine

81
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 4: in our last eighteen. We're winning games right now.

82
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 5: I think it's understandable if Jazz fans feel some type

83
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 5: of way about this. They're basically playing their entire roster,

84
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 5: so they're developing, but they're also playing the guy they

85
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,039
Speaker 5: traded for in Jaron Jackson junior. There are just like

86
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 5: so many whatabouts, like the Kings are doing the exact

87
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 5: same thing here, But it basically comes down to the

88
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 5: Super Bowl and end of the NFL season, all eyes

89
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 5: on basketball and the biggest story was tanking. So Silver

90
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 5: had to do something because that's what the conduct detrimental

91
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 5: to the league says to me, don't make us look

92
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 5: like idiots. Yeah, and kind of the Jazz were flaunting rules.

93
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 2: I'll go one step further. The league announced these fines

94
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 2: when they did for Utah and Indiana, so Silver can

95
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 2: get up there at the All Star weekend podium in

96
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 2: the coming days and use them as sort of like

97
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 2: quote unquote wins during his press conference saying, yeah, we

98
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 2: don't like these headlines with the integrity of the game.

99
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 2: Is this and that, and that's why we came down

100
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 2: hard on them.

101
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 1: This is what it is.

102
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,559
Speaker 2: And then we have a every single podcasts and every

103
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 2: writer saying how do we fix tanking? And we've you know,

104
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 2: heard a million ways to fix tanking at this point.

105
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 2: I don't think a lot of them work.

106
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 1: If I'm being honest.

107
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 2: But that is all the news right now, Not that

108
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: the Pistons are the best team in the league, not

109
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 2: you know whatever, even MVP race, that's not even the

110
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 2: thing anymore. Not teams like getting into the playoffs or

111
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 2: the play in like the Hornets is a hot story.

112
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: It's just tanking, tanking, tanking, tanking, and it's so weird

113
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 2: because it's not new. This isn't new. The Raptors did

114
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 2: it last year. A lot of times. Other teams have

115
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,359
Speaker 2: done it with guys that could have played, and they

116
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: sat them down. I think what's different is this year

117
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 2: is just like maybe it's starting earlier. There's that like

118
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 2: really leaning into it because of this loaded draft and

119
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 2: h and again. Another part of it is like the

120
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 2: league needs something to talk about or people want something

121
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 2: to talk about, and they've like really latched onto this

122
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 2: for whatever reason more than other things like MVP races

123
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 2: or really great teams or something like that. I don't

124
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 2: know why that part is. But the league's like, Okay,

125
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 2: stop it. We got to analyze you now, Please don't

126
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 2: do it anymore. It's not going to change anything, obviously,

127
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 2: unless like the draft is completely abolished or there is

128
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 2: some drastic change. They're just like, stop doing it now.

129
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: Don't make this look dumb. Don't make us look dumb.

130
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: But I don't know, in a way, it almost makes

131
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 2: them look dumber silver in the league because I'm with you, guys.

132
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 2: This is the coaching part of it all is what

133
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 2: are you talking about? You can't tell us when we

134
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 2: can or can't play guys like I get the player

135
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 2: participation part. That was always a big part of like

136
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: nationally televised games, And this is a league that we

137
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 2: completely sell on stars. So then it looks bad when

138
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 2: we turn around and the stars aren't playing in nationally

139
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 2: televized games.

140
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: I get that.

141
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 2: I get that, but like within the game itself, you're

142
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:43,359
Speaker 2: going too far in my opinion.

143
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not only sold on stars, but it's based

144
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 4: on stars to win basketball games. And so it's understandable

145
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 4: that the Utah Jazz would like to make their odds

146
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 4: as good as possible, even though it hasn't worked out

147
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 4: for them the past several years. And as we noted,

148
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 4: even though you have the worst record in the NBA,

149
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 4: that team has not been able to get the number

150
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 4: one pick recently for the last several years, and the

151
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 4: Jazz have dropped down in the order. And you know,

152
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 4: the draft picks also questionable. As we saw yesterday, they

153
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 4: didn't play Larry Marketing, they didn't even play use of

154
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 4: Nurkic and their draft pick Kyle Philipowski got burned many time.

155
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, does anyone feel bad for use of nurkicen isn't

156
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: he in the same Boat of these other guys, Lowry

157
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: Market and jam Jackson, Jay he was playing in those games.

158
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 3: And he's playing for because he's a free agent.

159
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: He says nothing about him.

160
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 4: I don't worry about him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The other

161
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 4: things that mentioned him. Only times he was mentioned in

162
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 4: national media was us when he went on X after

163
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 4: that loss and he put up a photo of Lowry

164
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 4: Market and doing a shrug, which is like, hey, I

165
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 4: do want to play in the fourth quarter. He was

166
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 4: declaring what should be happening. Yeah, you guys are right

167
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 4: in that this is just a show for Adam Silver

168
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 4: to be able to document something. Although the Indian Pacers,

169
00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 4: I don't get it, and I don't like that.

170
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 3: Hundred thousand dollars.

171
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: Fine, yeah, okay.

172
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 2: They violated the player participation policy against the Jazz on

173
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 2: February third, That's what the NBA said. A league investigation

174
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 2: found that Pascal Siakam and two other pacer starters who

175
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: sat out the game could have played under the medical

176
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 2: standard in the policy. That was the one hundred thousand

177
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 2: dollars fine. Reasoning for there that was similar to correct

178
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 2: me if I'm wrong. The Jazz did get sort of

179
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 2: slapped on the risk last season that hundred k guys

180
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 2: could have been playing they were cleared to play whatever,

181
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 2: and other teams have had this too.

182
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 5: Yep, six hundred thousand dollars in fine so far for

183
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 5: sitting Lowry markinin for a fourth quarter, and then last

184
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 5: year as well. It's got to be the most tank

185
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 5: fines in history. Part of me things like, if you're

186
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 5: a Jazz fan, you show up, you want to see

187
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 5: Jared Jackson Junior and Lowry Marketing go as long as

188
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 5: they can and play an entire game. But also Jazz

189
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 5: are like top ten in attendance and their arenas going

190
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 5: crazy seeing Cody Williams and Isaiah Collier have good fourth quarters, right,

191
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,439
Speaker 5: So they don't actually seem to mind seeing all these

192
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 5: young guys play because these young guys playing for him

193
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,079
Speaker 5: for three years at this point.

194
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: So I don't know.

195
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 5: I just think Silver should find everybody who's doing it.

196
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 5: Like every team is tanking right now. It feels like,

197
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 5: especially these games when there are tanking team versus tanking team,

198
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 5: it's like who can sit the most players? Like, how

199
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 5: have the Kings dodged any.

200
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: Of this so far?

201
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 3: Yeah?

202
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,559
Speaker 1: And again nothing news that they just saying they just suck.

203
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 3: Yeah they do.

204
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

205
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

206
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 5: And also I mean they're like they're sitting DeRozan in

207
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 5: fourth quarters, they're pulling him for the stretch runs when

208
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 5: he's clearly their best player and their best clutch player.

209
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 3: Right, But that's not making headlines.

210
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: No, because they're losing anyways.

211
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt probably.

212
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 2: And again this is nothing new. It's I guess the

213
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 2: new part is that it's before the All Star break.

214
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: That's it.

215
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 2: This happens all the time in March and April with

216
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 2: not as many teams maybe and not that early. Yeah,

217
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 2: that's the big difference. And part of that is I

218
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 2: think a lot of these pick protections comes into play here,

219
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 2: and if they're going to change one thing, they maybe

220
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 2: get rid of them, because the two teams were talking

221
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 2: about have pick protections, where shit, if we're not bad enough,

222
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 2: we're losing it to Okay. See, we're seeing a lot

223
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 2: of reports that the reason this is really made headlines

224
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 2: is maybe OKAYC is going to the league and to writers, Hey,

225
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,839
Speaker 2: what the hell are the Utah Jazz doing. We want

226
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,959
Speaker 2: that pick, We need them, we want them to win,

227
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 2: So we get that pick because it falls out of

228
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 2: the top eight and then the pacer are the same thing.

229
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 2: They got the new one now because of the Zubats deal,

230
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 2: and it's like the well five to.

231
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 1: Nine windows, but the Jazz one multiple five. Yeah, yeah, right,

232
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 1: you're right.

233
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 4: They won their last two games before the fine pacers

234
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 4: two pacers two, right, and you think.

235
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: That's a huge part of it or should be. Yeah, yeah,

236
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: that's fair.

237
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, put it in the database. Put it in the database,

238
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 4: Ryan Smith, put it in qual tricks, and let's figure

239
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 4: it all out. Because I call them my best bad

240
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 4: Ryan Smith. I think I also have other guys who

241
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 4: wear backward hats in my algorithm, Mark Robert as well.

242
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 3: He's in an engineer making videos for kids out there.

243
00:10:59,120 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 1: Robert.

244
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, backwards hats.

245
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: Okay, hats three days in a row.

246
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 2: Maybe that was a subtle message to your buddy Ryan Smith.

247
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 4: Fay, I got you, man, Yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe Ryan

248
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 4: Smith and I both have dirty hair.

249
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 1: Oh that's why that was on?

250
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 3: Yeah unfortunately.

251
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, is that what Kelly Lynnox doing too?

252
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 3: Good? Questions?

253
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 5: Though his hair doesn't look the cleanest, he's got a

254
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 5: lot of it.

255
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow, what a pivot from tanking to backwards cast.

256
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 4: I'm done talking about tanking, because you're right, it is.

257
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 4: It does happen every single year. That has happened a

258
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 4: little bit earlier this season. That's based on where we're

259
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 4: going here. I'll start weekend coming up. Adam's got to

260
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 4: do something.

261
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 2: Right and you can't change that. You can't change the

262
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 2: draft rules this season. So the only thing he really

263
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 2: can do is try and like scare these owners, these coaches,

264
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 2: these teams until like, hey, stop doing it so blatantly.

265
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: I think that's a big part of it too.

266
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 2: That's this like yes, when when Hardy was asked about

267
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 2: it in the postgame press conference that one game of like, hey,

268
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 2: did you ever think about putting the Loarry market in

269
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 2: daring Jackson Junior back in, It's like no, he basically

270
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 2: like like not even pretending like, ah, we thought about it,

271
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 2: but we liked what the young guys were doing, you know,

272
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 2: like just the even pretending to make up a reason

273
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 2: why we wanted to keep the young guys playing.

274
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 1: No.

275
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 2: No, but maybe the Jazz are going to, like, I

276
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 2: don't know, fight back here or like challenge this fine,

277
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 2: because Hardy has said too, like my team is saying

278
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 2: marketing is on a minute's restriction.

279
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:28,559
Speaker 6: And that.

280
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: So I don't know if they have some merit there

281
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 1: that they could play that card. They probably won't know.

282
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 4: They did just say Lowry mark for a game after

283
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 4: the hair slick back.

284
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: That's true.

285
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 3: This is true.

286
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 2: This is true. Yeah, here's a question for you before

287
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 2: we move on. Maybe people are doing it with our podcast,

288
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 2: because I know when I see tanking in any of

289
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 2: these other like NBA podcasts, I'm basically an immediate skip.

290
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 1: Do not give a shit.

291
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 2: You don't care about your wheel, don't care about abolishing

292
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 2: the AFT, don't care about it. I don't care. I

293
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 2: just I just don't. So I just like, all right,

294
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 2: I'm not going to listen to that part. You start

295
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 2: the next chapter.

296
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. Are you ever going to talk about

297
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: the games?

298
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 3: Just click to the next chapter.

299
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,319
Speaker 1: Okay, But maybe people are doing that right now.

300
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 4: Well, we have received a lot of emails from fans

301
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 4: talking about how they can fix tanking.

302
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, people love talking about this, Yes.

303
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 3: They do love talking about it.

304
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 4: Do they love hearing about it? I'm not sure, because

305
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 4: you're right, it's a skip for me too. I don't

306
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:26,719
Speaker 4: want to hear about it.

307
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it's the biggest story in the league,

308
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 5: so you're gonna hear about it, but uh, the solutions

309
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 5: to it are infuriating to me. Yeah, I'm like, okay,

310
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 5: just make a decision, or Adam Silver come out and say, yeah.

311
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: Tanking's fine. Would you care?

312
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 5: Mmm if you just knew ten teams were going to play,

313
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 5: would you care at all?

314
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 1: Or would you just skip?

315
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 5: Would you just skip?

316
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: This is the funny part.

317
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 2: Who we're watching these games to begin with is my

318
00:13:55,559 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 2: favorite part of everybody up and roar, yep, up and roar,

319
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,479
Speaker 2: up and uproar.

320
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, ske for sure. Commodation.

321
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, it's basically zero percent we're watching those games,

322
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 2: but they want to write about it, try and fix things.

323
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: I just guess what I'm getting at.

324
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 2: Is, like the All Star weekend, I'm a little concerned

325
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 2: that the league is going to go too extreme with

326
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 2: trying to fix something that I actually don't think needs

327
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 2: to be fixed. I think it's a perfect storm, Like

328
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 2: it's a weird year. I think there are a lot

329
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 2: of bad teams right now, and it's a loaded class

330
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 2: and it's going to be sort of like more to

331
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 2: this season. It's not good. I'm not saying it's great.

332
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 2: That these teams are like sitting a bunch of guys

333
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 2: maybe trying to throw games. But I don't think it's

334
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 2: something that's actually going to continue year after year after year, and.

335
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: Nor has it really Outside of THEEA.

336
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 5: It happens teams almost every year, not ten teams, not

337
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 5: till March.

338
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, but we don't care then, we never care.

339
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: People care.

340
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 5: I mean that's the wheel proposal was twelve years ago, right,

341
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 5: people care?

342
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: So why wouldn't the league have implemented it then?

343
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 5: Or they tried, they tried flattening the lottery its and

344
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 5: it didn't fix anything. Right, If if the prospects are

345
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 5: good enough, it's gonna happen, and it will just continue

346
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 5: to happen. It just we don't know if when the

347
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 5: prospects are good enough always It happened for Wemby, it

348
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 5: happened for Derek Lively, it happened for Patrick Ewing, like

349
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 5: it's happened for a long time, and it'll keep happening

350
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 5: because getting a great player is the most important thing

351
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 5: in basketball. If you get a top five pick, you've

352
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 5: got a chance to have a good franchise going forward. Yeah.

353
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, there are only three ways to improve your team,

354
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 2: the draft, a trade, free agency.

355
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 5: Free agency is dead exactly. There's one one off the

356
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 5: most important thing. Yeah, so people are going to try

357
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 5: and get the best players.

358
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, specifically in this year for sure.

359
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 5: Sometimes we can't just say this year, this year, this year,

360
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 5: because it does there is always a guy coming.

361
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 1: There's just always good.

362
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 3: It's not dead.

363
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not saying it's dead. I mean it won't

364
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 5: be as big of a deal next year. It wasn't

365
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 5: as big of a deal in the recess a year.

366
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 5: It was a big deal in the wemby year.

367
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

368
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's guys. It flatters. Yeah, sometimes it matters, sometimes

369
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 4: it doesn't. Reducing the schedule would help as well. I

370
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 4: think that's a.

371
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 3: Big part of it.

372
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 4: If there were sixty games, oh, there would be like

373
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 4: reduce it by twenty five percent, which is something that

374
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 4: the league would never do just because of money flying

375
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 4: front for each and every TV deal. That would change things,

376
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 4: that would help the integrity of each and every game,

377
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 4: simple as that.

378
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 1: But they're not cutting the league.

379
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 4: It's unlike it's very unlikely. Yeah, but you never know.

380
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 4: They just signed an eleven year TV deal. Maybe this

381
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 4: is the time the money is flown in.

382
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 3: Let's give it a try for the time.

383
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 2: They just paid billions and billions of dollars for large

384
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 2: inventory of games and such, and then now we're gonna

385
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 2: cut it.

386
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 4: Probably not, yeah, but still the people are still watching.

387
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 4: And even though you said who's watching, for example, Utah Portland, Yeah,

388
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 4: maybe the generic fan isn't, but the Utah Jazz fans

389
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 4: are the Portland trailblazer.

390
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, Utah Jazz fans are generally the ones not complaining

391
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 2: about this. Yeah, from what I've seen, it's everybody else

392
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 2: not watching the actual.

393
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 3: They won games and they also won. That's the weird thing.

394
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, that sucks the root for your team to lose. Yeah,

395
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 5: I mean that's a huge That's the biggest issue to

396
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,479
Speaker 5: me is like the Bulls finally decided to trade all

397
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 5: of their veterans and I'm I'm not interested in watching

398
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 5: my favorite team right now. I don't care to see

399
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 5: Anthony Simon's running around there with Patrick Williams. I know

400
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 5: they're trying to lose ye, and like every day I'm like, nice,

401
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 5: the Bucks won, that's great news for the Bulls.

402
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 1: They lost six in a row. I'm loving it.

403
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 3: That's stupid.

404
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a stupid way to watch basketball.

405
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, especially with kids who really they still live on

406
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 4: the idea that winning in sports is everything and.

407
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 5: It is the most important.

408
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, but then you could literally.

409
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: Say, you're incentivized.

410
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 3: I don't want to watch this game. I don't care. Why. Well,

411
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 3: because we're trying to lose.

412
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, were you guys watching the Raptors down the stretch

413
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 5: last year when they were So that's stupid, that's dumb.

414
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 2: I mean, we're I don't know, we're like not the

415
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 2: normal people here because we do this for a living

416
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 2: and we're commenting on all the other teams.

417
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: But you're right, there are people.

418
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 2: Most people are like, this is my team and this

419
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 2: is the only team I want to watch. But most

420
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 2: fans are wise enough to know, yeah, we can only

421
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 2: improve really in the draft lottery in a lot of cases,

422
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 2: in a lot of these small market teams. So because

423
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 2: the way it's set up, we're just incentivized to maybe lose.

424
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: Some of these games have a better.

425
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,479
Speaker 2: Chance, especially when the pick protections come into play for

426
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 2: sure for sure whether you're gonna lose the pick. All right, well,

427
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 2: let's move to some of last night's games. I'll just

428
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,439
Speaker 2: chuck them all at you here, We'll throw them on

429
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 2: the board. We had Ujman Jang powering the Bucks pass OKC.

430
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 2: Big win for Milwaukee. So if you're a Bulls fan,

431
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 2: that was huge.

432
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm loving this Bucks win, Blazers win. Great night

433
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 5: for the Bulls.

434
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 2: Holiday and Clinging got the Blazers past the Jazz and

435
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 2: Lebron James became the oldest player in NBA history with

436
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: a triple double.

437
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 1: See you later, Carl, Yeah, that's crazy to me.

438
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 5: I would have I would have guessed that Lebron was

439
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 5: the oldest guy to have a triple double. I think

440
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 5: everybody would have. And then I would have never in

441
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 5: a million years guess Carl alone. Yeah, forty years, one

442
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 5: hundred and twenty seven days. Carl Malone was, but Lebron

443
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 5: got them beat. Now forty one years and forty four days.

444
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 5: You'll forty four years old with the twenty eight, twelve,

445
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 5: and ten, any of those games you want to talk about.

446
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, first you got to say, unc still got

447
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 4: it in Lebron, and that's extremely impressive, simple as that.

448
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 4: I guess this means he's not retiring this season.

449
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 1: Why, well, he still got it? Why retire?

450
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 2: He says his body still got it, but it'll all

451
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 2: come down to whether his heart's still in it. All

452
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 2: those hours taking care of the bad right, pushing through.

453
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 1: He basically says, it's not a physical thing. I'm okay.

454
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 5: My game will never fall off.

455
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 1: Yeah.

456
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just like whether I want to do it

457
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 2: and love it and enjoy it.

458
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 5: It's the best of both worlds for Lebron. He's getting

459
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 5: two retirement tours. He's getting this one where people are like,

460
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 5: is he gonna leave? And then he's gonna get the

461
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 5: one where he finally decides to leave.

462
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, And remarkably, that is a great business for everyone

463
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 2: where Lebron comes and plays in your arena too, because

464
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 2: you can sell those tickets away. Right, This might be

465
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 2: the final game he plays here, and the next year

466
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 2: will most likely be the final game he plays here.

467
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they're playing against the team who didn't start

468
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 4: Cooper Fly. I didn't play Cooper Flag. He's got a.

469
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 3: Mid foot sprain.

470
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: No, don't believe it.

471
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 3: Don't believe it.

472
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 1: Nope, they're tanking. We literally could just do it with

473
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: every guy another player in cent of I still live. Yeah,

474
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 1: I'm kidding, but yeah, that's why I can get dangerous

475
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 1: or silly really quickly. But he didn't play and they

476
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: lost nine straight.

477
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 3: Now they have lost nine straight.

478
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 4: That's the first time they've lost nine straight since the

479
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 4: year nineteen ninety eight, when Michael Finley was playing for

480
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 4: them instead of grabbing a beer from Luka Dontrich's hand

481
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 4: before the NBA Finals as a member of the front office.

482
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 4: It's a long time, but they had guys leave this game.

483
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 4: It's bad. Najie Marshall left this game. Daniel Gafford left

484
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 4: this game. Kyrie Irvan is sitting there on the sideland

485
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 4: with the ball in his hands. It looks like he

486
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 4: wants to go out there and play, but he's also injured.

487
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 4: So yeah, this might be the point, the tipping point

488
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 4: for this team because they haven't been tanking because Cooper's

489
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 4: been out there. But at some point, does he have

490
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 4: to sit to give them the best option or the

491
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,199
Speaker 4: best opportunity to have a high draft feels like it.

492
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 3: I don't know.

493
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: I mean, they lost eight straight, but yeah.

494
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 3: With this one, yeah, yeah, yeah.

495
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 5: Their season was over when Anthony Davis got hurt and

496
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 5: then they traded him away for you know, some guys

497
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 5: who at least can play Chris Middleton weird to see

498
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 5: him coming off the bench, Marvin Bagley, but not guys

499
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 5: that are going to win. It always made sense for

500
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 5: the Mavericks to keep their pick this year and try

501
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 5: to make it as good as possible. So I like

502
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 5: Cooper will play in the last third of the season

503
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 5: for sure.

504
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, they are a little like you know, the Sacramento

505
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 4: Kings who just keep losing no matter what.

506
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 3: But again, lots of their guys are hurt.

507
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 4: But if you want Cooper to get out there for

508
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 4: the last, yeah, twenty five games or so. Here they're

509
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 4: nineteen and thirty five, so twenty eight, get him out there.

510
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 4: But if you want to bet on Conkin Nipple for

511
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 4: Rookie of the Year, I think it's a good time.

512
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 3: Well, okay, I was going to get to that.

513
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if Cooper wants to obviously win rooki

514
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 2: of the Year, he's going to play. He's not playing

515
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,119
Speaker 2: in the Rising Stars game, so he's going to be

516
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 2: missing All Star weekend here. But yeah, another loss and

517
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 2: Lebron makes history. Anything else on those other games.

518
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 4: We'll trip over to Milwaukee because this is a team

519
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 4: that is not tanking and people were questioning, well, maybe

520
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,360
Speaker 4: they're going to tank. They won five of six games.

521
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 4: It's funny watching this team with Kevin Porter Junior as

522
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 4: their starting guard now Cam Thompas playing for a contract,

523
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 4: coming off the bench and executing. I mean, they outplayed

524
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 4: okay See. Obviously, Okay See has a lot of injuries.

525
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 4: I think, Okay so he's got something to worry about

526
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 4: here with Jalen Williams, now with a hamstring injury, hasn't

527
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 4: been able to stay right this entire season. I know

528
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 4: it's still a couple months away and he can still

529
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 4: get back and get right and Shay will be there.

530
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 3: But I think that is a legitimate worry.

531
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 2: You don't think I mean, I don't want to put

532
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 2: words to your mouth, but you don't think the Oklahoma

533
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 2: City Thunder can win another championship without a healthy Jilen Williams.

534
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:45,360
Speaker 3: I think I think that's fair.

535
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's their second best all handler, and so he's a.

536
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 2: Big storyline in the second half of the season. Yeah,

537
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 2: how he comes back, when he comes back, and how

538
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 2: he looks.

539
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think there was There's always other teams you

540
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 4: could say in the Western Conference they can do it

541
00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 4: at least I was, you know, I was. I was

542
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 4: big on Denver Hoho's head with time, a ton of

543
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 4: injuries before all these injuries for okay, see, but I

544
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 4: think it is a work either way. Milwaukee ain't tanking

545
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 4: five six wins. Are they going to make the playoffs?

546
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 4: Top six? Specifically?

547
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 1: No?

548
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 3: But can they make the play in? Oh?

549
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 4: Absolutely? Watching aj Green out there, Darry Bird. He's a

550
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,400
Speaker 4: catch and shoot type of guy. But he was five

551
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 4: of eleven from three yesterday and he had to create

552
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 4: a little bit, just just one dribble into that high

553
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 4: release was going down for him forty three percent on

554
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 4: seven threes per game this season. It's a career year

555
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 4: for him. I say him. I mentioned him because him

556
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 4: alongside Yeah, I said Kobo. When he comes back and

557
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 4: Miles Turner to go along with Ryan Rollins and Kevin

558
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 4: Porter Junior, who's only played about half the games for them,

559
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 4: he start to look at this team and say, hey,

560
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 4: do we want to play this team in a playoff series?

561
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 4: When they've got Uzman Jang coming off the bench, balling

562
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 4: in his old arena with Kuzma and Portos and Kem

563
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 4: Thomas playing for his NBA career out there, which is

564
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 4: scary at times for the Milwaukee Bucks. But it's tough teams,

565
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 4: especially with their schedule. They've got seventeen home games left,

566
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 4: only twelve road games. This team can easily make the

567
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 4: play in and subsequently the playoffs.

568
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: Who do you think they're catching Hawks?

569
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 3: Yeah?

570
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 5: I mean Hawks are in tenth. It's a game and

571
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 5: a half behind.

572
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, they can catch the Hawks.

573
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 4: I think we all said, oh, they're trading Tree Young

574
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 4: and this team was good before that, but they've never

575
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 4: been good for a full season without with or without

576
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 4: Tree Young, and so that's it's very different for them. Plus,

577
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 4: you know the whole Jonathan Minga thing. I think there's yeah,

578
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 4: lots of questions with that team. And yeah, it's it's

579
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,479
Speaker 4: the Hawks, and we'll see if the Hornets can keep

580
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 4: it up in nine, because I don't think that's a

581
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 4: lock lock, but obviously they're playing extremely well.

582
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 5: Coolest thing that happened last night was Nicolo Topich making

583
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,360
Speaker 5: his NBA debut. Drafted with a knee injury, sat out

584
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 5: all last season, had a testicular cancer diagnosis in the preseason,

585
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 5: underwent some treatment, and got his game back. Playing down

586
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 5: in the G League for the blue. I suppose finally

587
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 5: checked in, got an assist right away on a pretty

588
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 5: slick pass hit a jumper standing ovation.

589
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: That was awesome. Yeah, it was cool, very cool, very cool.

590
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, and okay, see it's awesome and it was good

591
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 4: to see usmind jangle back there. That was his team

592
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 4: where he played. I guess he's good with the sight lines.

593
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 4: I was bawling out there. What's his line? Nineteen points,

594
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 4: eleven board six assists, four blocks, and it'll back three

595
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 4: on his own.

596
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 2: He was in the running for a whoa boy, he

597
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 2: didn't get there. One of those Blazers is going to

598
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 2: get it. I'll tease that. Yeah, As they got the

599
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 2: big win.

600
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 4: And we did the mock draft for our expansion teams

601
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 4: a couple of days ago, because Seattle and Vegas are

602
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,880
Speaker 4: coming now. I projected maybe too early that I thought

603
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 4: maybe in twenty seven to twenty eight they'd come back.

604
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 4: Schamps came out and said, no, no, no, that's not happened

605
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 4: for years. I believe Shaan's in that it's not coming

606
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 4: four years. But my big point was Ousman Chang was unprotected.

607
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 4: Are you kidding me?

608
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 3: Over?

609
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 4: Andre Jackson Junior? Me, Keith, come on, get Ryan Smith

610
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 4: on there. He would make a smart move and say

611
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 4: Andrew Jackson, see you, Jercho Sims, see you. But it's

612
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 4: mine Jang. I mean, he looks like he looks like

613
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 4: a modern player if he gets a missed. But it's

614
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 4: a great pick in your expansion. Yeah, okay, Nicolotopic. Obviously

615
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,160
Speaker 4: the story there, and it was pretty cool.

616
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, thunderstarted twenty four and one and they're going into

617
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:21,919
Speaker 5: the All Star Break with the second best record.

618
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 1: I know, kind of unbelievable. I have a better winning person,

619
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: that's right.

620
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 4: Yes, we are all all talking seventy wins, seventy four wins?

621
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: What then? I keep coming back to it.

622
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 5: It was it was like sixty and a half maybe no,

623
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 5: I thought it was a little higher.

624
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 2: Let me see, yeah, sixty two and a half. And

625
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 2: I took the under yea. And of course they start

626
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 2: twenty four and one. I'm like, oh, I'm a stupid idiot.

627
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 2: You know, it's not They're probably gonna still get there.

628
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: I need twenty wins, twenty one wins to hit the over.

629
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 2: But it's not a lock now like it was there

630
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 2: at the after twenty five games. So we'll see, all right,

631
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 2: let's get to the real meat of today's Drop podcast,

632
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 2: all Star weekend predictions. We'll make our way through these,

633
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 2: we'll show you the odds from our good friends at

634
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 2: fan Duel.

635
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,639
Speaker 1: And you know, we'll make some predictions. Who's going to

636
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 1: win this stuff.

637
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 2: So let's start with the Rising Stars game Turney, whatever

638
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 2: the hell it is that goes down tonight nine pm Eastern.

639
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 2: So this one they keep sort of late. We got

640
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 2: three teams of rookies and sophomores, and then a G

641
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 2: League team lost a couple guys. I know, Team Mellow

642
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 2: lost Cooper Flag due to injury, and Team Tmack lost

643
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 2: two guys and aj Mitchell and Alex sar so a

644
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 2: couple other guys have been slotted in.

645
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 3: Again.

646
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 2: This is a game one at nine o'clock, then a

647
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 2: Game two at like close to ten, and then a

648
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,399
Speaker 2: Rising Stars Championship game between the winners of those two

649
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 2: teams at ten thirty. So I just wanted to show

650
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 2: you the odds for the winning team, please do. I'm

651
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 2: not showing you the rosters because there's been just too

652
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,919
Speaker 2: much turnover. But Team Mellow is the favorite, or they

653
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 2: were when I checked this last night at plus one

654
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 2: fifty five, and then you got Team t MAC plus

655
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 2: one seventy Team Vince plus two sixty Team Austin and

656
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 2: the G League team not great odds to win this

657
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 2: thing plus eight fifty. Who do you got? And I

658
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 2: want to know who do you have as your MVP

659
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 2: of the Rising Stars game? You got to start at

660
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 2: your tests.

661
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:13,439
Speaker 4: I'm taking Team t MAC and I think Conka Nipple

662
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,120
Speaker 4: can be the MVP of this game and then win

663
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 4: the three point contest on Saturday. We'll get to that,

664
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 4: but it's kind of like, uh, I made the same

665
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 4: prediction essentially for Stefan Castle last year. He did it

666
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 4: on Friday Night. Saturday Night, he was second to the

667
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 4: great Mac McClung in the dunk contest. So I like

668
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:36,719
Speaker 4: I like them, especially with Cooper being out for mister Mellow.

669
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 2: So Team t MAC and Conka Nipple as your MVP

670
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 2: of the Rising Stars? Where are you going, Trey?

671
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 5: I'm kind of surprised that Team Mellow has remained the

672
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 5: favorite even with Cooper going down. You would assume that,

673
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 5: I guess con he's Team t MAC.

674
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 4: He is the Team T Mac. Yeah, hello's got the guy.

675
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 4: He's got some guys exactly. I'm still going to pick

676
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 4: Team Mellow. I think they got a lot of ball handlers.

677
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 5: Shepherd, Castle, Harper, Fears Read Shepherd, MVP Tam.

678
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 2: Mellow is a good pick because I mean they sort

679
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 2: of get like an easier pathway. Nothing's given here. But

680
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 2: they do play Team Austin in the first game. Okay,

681
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 2: so they play the G League team. I mean Melo

682
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 2: beats them, Wil Harper versus Ron Harper?

683
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:17,959
Speaker 1: Is he in the G League game?

684
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 2: Oh yeah? And then they're working together on tomorrow night?

685
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 3: Wow? Wow?

686
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 4: You know the schedule? Do you know the schedule of

687
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 4: each game? So who plays the first game?

688
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 2: Team Austin versus Team Mellow. Then Team Vince versus Team

689
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 2: Team gotta have the cousins going to the Rising Stars

690
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 2: Championship game.

691
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 4: I always like the team that doesn't have to sit

692
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 4: from the first game to the championship game.

693
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 2: Oh interesting, That's why I like Team Vince. I want

694
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 2: Team Vince to win this thing. Great, all right, they

695
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 2: got edgecom Derek Queen, Keishawn George, who's Ellos, Cedric Coward.

696
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 2: I just like the makeup of their team here, not

697
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 2: the not the biggest team in the world, I'll admit,

698
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 2: but it's also one of these games where not a

699
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 2: lot of defenses being played. So I'll go VJ Edgecumbe

700
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 2: as my m v P pick.

701
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 3: It's a solid team. No one's taking the G League team.

702
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 5: No, sorry, Young Hanson will be playing right, I think

703
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 5: is in there too.

704
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 2: Yeah there's a couple. Yeah, there's a couple of funny ones.

705
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 2: Good way to squeeze them.

706
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 5: Okay, let's go podcasters though. That's exciting, man four podcasters

707
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 5: captaining those teams.

708
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 1: They should be podcasting while they do. They should live

709
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 1: stream and be great. Uh.

710
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 2: Three point contests stacked field for this. This is gonna

711
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 2: be the first event on Saturday Night. That's fun. They're

712
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 2: gonna like kick off the Saturday night festivities with this one.

713
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 2: We got a future Hall of Famer in Damian Lillard

714
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 2: making the surprise return here. Guys haven't played all season

715
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 2: and he is going to bomb away in the three

716
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 2: point contest. I got five current All Stars Booker Maxi, Mitchell, Murray,

717
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 2: Norman Powell, rookie of your favorite in Konka Nipple, and

718
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 2: Bobby Portis Junior who is shooting a really good percentage.

719
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 2: So Bobby another guy or two, But Bobby's in here,

720
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 2: maybe he'll surprise all of us. Let's show you the

721
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 2: odds because kon Knipple, Task is the favorite. You already

722
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 2: tipped your hand here, so he's plus three point thirty,

723
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 2: then Lillard plus four ten, Booker plus five fifty, and

724
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 2: then Murray and Maxi plus six hundred. I just cut

725
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 2: it off there after five guys, so you can take

726
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 2: the long shots if you want. We know Task is

727
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 2: going Knipple. You like the rooki here.

728
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 4: You got a rookie as the favorite in a three

729
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 4: point contest. I can shoot the rock absolutely, but to

730
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 4: give a rookie you as the favorite trying.

731
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: To I'd love to get back.

732
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 2: And I don't know how many times a guy in

733
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 2: his first three point contest wins it. I know it's happened,

734
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 2: but I wonder how many times, because it does feel

735
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 2: that there's guys that have come back, or you get

736
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 2: a little more familiarity with the racks and stuff like that.

737
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,719
Speaker 4: But this guy has been practicing. I've seen the tape. Oh,

738
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 4: I haven't seen that yet with I'm not sure when

739
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 4: it's from. It could be older, but I don't think

740
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 4: it really matters because he knows that that Rack is

741
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 4: going on the right side of it. And he's right.

742
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 4: He's practiced, he knows. We heard Del Curry, who's broadcaster

743
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 4: for the Charlotte Hornts. He was asked what tips would

744
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 4: you give to Konka Nipple. He said, make sure you

745
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 4: know what side of you the Rack is gonna go. Well,

746
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 4: he knows, man big, this is not Tori. Also, he said,

747
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 4: you don't got to warm up too much because you

748
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 4: got to get a lot of shots. Yeah, and listen,

749
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 4: Con knows how to take care of his bod. I

750
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 4: just think the way the way that he's come in,

751
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 4: he just he's obviously a very assertive guy, the way

752
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 4: he plays basketball, the way he gets after it. I

753
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 4: watched him in summer league and I wondered, Okay, is

754
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 4: this gonna translate? Is he going to play this hard

755
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 4: in the league. He does, but I think he knows

756
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 4: it did and I think he knows how to take

757
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 4: care of the bod. So all good and make some

758
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 4: money for your family. Who can bet on you at

759
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 4: plus three thirds? Now that is not inside information. You're

760
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 4: just betting on a winner. It sure feels like that

761
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 4: guy can win.

762
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 2: Okay, you got Con, You're you're a con head this

763
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 2: weekend for sure.

764
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, when you need a reason to get

765
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 4: behind the player, it's easy that way. Rising stars and

766
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 4: then on Saturday, good rhythm, done and done.

767
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 1: Oh that's great man, Yeah, that's great.

768
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 5: He's got a perfect release too. Yeah, like very tight.

769
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 5: Reminds me of Eric Gordon when he won. It's like

770
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 5: very compact, very replicable, good chance of winning. But this

771
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 5: is Damian Lillard's NBA Finals.

772
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: Oh here we go.

773
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is one game this year. I'm going to

774
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 5: pick Damian Lillard. What else has he been doing? Probably

775
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 5: just shooting off a rat.

776
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 1: Good point, it's a really good point.

777
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 2: Has he shot too much? And he's trying to make history?

778
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 2: I said this the other day. If Lillard goes on

779
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 2: to win this, it'd be his third three point contest

780
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 2: crown and that would tie him with Larry Bird and

781
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 2: Craig Hodges for the most all time. Wow, would still

782
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 2: have a chance to even meat that hypothetically, So okay,

783
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 2: you're going Dame. Yep, I'm going to tackle it like, yeah,

784
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 2: this is his season right here. Just to be different,

785
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 2: I do like the other three guys on the board.

786
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 2: I have to admit I guess they're all Kentucky guards,

787
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 2: aren't they. Yeah, give me Devin Booker because he's won

788
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 2: it before. He I think he's made a final and

789
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 2: another one before, and he like, is the worst shooter

790
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 2: this season of the entire field. Yeah, a lot of

791
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 2: people have pointed that out, us included. It's like, oh

792
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 2: my god, there's like eight guys on the Suns that

793
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 2: shoot better from three.

794
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 1: It does not matter. Guy can still shoot. These will

795
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: be the easiest looks he gets all year. Yeah that's right,

796
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 1: that's right. No double teams on these ones.

797
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 2: So I'll take Booker at plus five point fifty gets him,

798
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 2: can make some more money off of him.

799
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 1: Maybe.

800
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 5: I don't think this is a bet that's available, but

801
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 5: if it was, I would pick Donovan Mitchell to have

802
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 5: the highest score from any round.

803
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay, I like that I at first round

804
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:34,839
Speaker 1: or something.

805
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, which happens a lot too, see you

806
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:38,839
Speaker 2: cause someone put up a monster first round and then

807
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 2: they like, don't put up a great fine round.

808
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 3: This is eight shooters somewhere.

809
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 1: Eight shooters.

810
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 2: Top three advance to the final, and sometimes we have tiebreakers,

811
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 2: so I could come into play, all right, shooting stars

812
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,360
Speaker 2: that's right. The NBA Shooting Stars competition is back in

813
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 2: our life.

814
00:34:55,200 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: Where are you, Chris Bush? Where are you? Where are you?

815
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 2: Spurs rookie Dylan Harper and his brother Ron Harper Junior

816
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 2: and their father five time NBA champ Ron Harper Marquee

817
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 2: family team?

818
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: Is that safe to say the Harper's the Harper's Yeah,

819
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 1: I guess Ron Harper won a championship in LA not

820
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: for the Clippers, but for the Lakers, and he was

821
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 1: a Clipper. He was define definitely a Clipper. Yeah.

822
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,280
Speaker 2: Team All Star headlined by Scotty Barnes, Chet Holmgren, Rip Hamilton,

823
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 2: Team Nicks, Jalen Brunson, Karl Anthony Towns, Allen Houston, and

824
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:30,080
Speaker 2: Team Cameron, which is all Doochies Jalen Johnson, Canipple again

825
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 2: tasks are you going to be backing him for a

826
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 2: third time? And Corey mcghetti. Teams are given seventy seconds

827
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 2: to score points by hitting shots at seven locations on

828
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 2: the floor, each team member shooting in a set.

829
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:42,720
Speaker 1: Order at each spot.

830
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 2: So yeah, look, it's a shooting comp right, moving around

831
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:47,240
Speaker 2: the floor different spots.

832
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 1: Gotta knock him down. The odds they're out there. That's right.

833
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 2: Team Knicks were the favorite when I checked last night

834
00:35:55,640 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: plus one ninety, then the Duke team of Team Cameron

835
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 2: plus two forty, Team All Stars plus two ninety, and

836
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 2: then Team Harper coming in at plus three thirty for

837
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 2: the two bros. And Dad there, Tray, I'll start with

838
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:11,720
Speaker 2: you on this one Shooting Stars winner.

839
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 1: Which team are you backing?

840
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 5: Well, I'll first start by saying that Team Cameron is

841
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 5: pretty funny to put these Duke guys together, all of

842
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,920
Speaker 5: whom played one season a dude, it was like a

843
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:23,920
Speaker 5: huge deal when Corey mcghetty, he was like maybe the

844
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 5: first guy to leave after one season.

845
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: Playing at Duke. I came off the bench, and.

846
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 5: Miley Johnson played thirteen games.

847
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought Jalen Johnson and Duke didn't have the

848
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 2: greatest relationship.

849
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:36,400
Speaker 1: Maybe that's why it's Team Cameron.

850
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, Cameron Indoor, Bob going with the Knicks because I

851
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 5: think ron Or I think Alan Houston is the best

852
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 5: veteran shooter the four guys who are here. Yeah, okay,

853
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,359
Speaker 5: I guess he looks great. I mean I think we're

854
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 5: p Hamilton is still in shape as well.

855
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yes, I think so too.

856
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 5: I am looking forward to seeing Ron Harper Senior out there,

857
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 5: though he's not around that much. No, not nearly as

858
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:00,880
Speaker 5: much as some of these other guys. Like you see

859
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:04,319
Speaker 5: Alan Houston at Knicks games pretty regularly, I think, but

860
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,399
Speaker 5: not Ron Harper Senior. Okay, you're taking. I don't remember

861
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 5: him as much of a shooter back in the day either.

862
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 1: That's a good pick.

863
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 2: I mean, Carling the Towns is an elite big man shooter. Yeah,

864
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,919
Speaker 2: for sure, Brunson's Bronson and then yeah, Alan Houston in theory,

865
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 2: should be the best old guy, the old legend of

866
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 2: the group.

867
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 1: So it's good pick. Are you going Team Nicks.

868
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 4: Or Yeah, it's hard not to take the Knicks just

869
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 4: because of the shooters, because Alan Houston, we know that

870
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,399
Speaker 4: guy can shoot. Although, yeah, the under the radar team

871
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 4: is I think Scottie Barnes, Rip Hamilton and chettholmkred. I

872
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 4: know Rip Hamilton's in shape, seen him multiple times, shook

873
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 4: his hand. That hand that handshake seems like it's in

874
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 4: extremely good shape.

875
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:42,280
Speaker 5: And strong grip.

876
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, and we also lit a fire at Gordon Ramsey's

877
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 4: restaurant when I was in London with him in the.

878
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:48,280
Speaker 3: Year twenty eighteen.

879
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 4: He's ready to shoot, man, but it's difficult to take

880
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,360
Speaker 4: team Cameron at Corn mcghetty. As you said about Ron Harper,

881
00:37:56,360 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 4: both both those guys, Ron Harper senior in Cormacgetty not shooting.

882
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:03,880
Speaker 5: Really, Corey, I'll get to the free throw line. He's

883
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 5: a free throw who's gonna set screens for rip though? Yeah,

884
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 5: he wasn't really a three point shoot, but whatever.

885
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 1: Who's got the half court bomb?

886
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 7: Yeah?

887
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 1: Who's got the bomb? Yeah?

888
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:18,760
Speaker 4: Like the Cat Houston Bronson combo, it's hard to bet that's.

889
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: Three point or a half court shooter of the entire bunch, that's.

890
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 5: Very tough question to the Getty's jacked, so he's got

891
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 5: the distance.

892
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 1: No problem, you can easily get it there.

893
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,960
Speaker 3: But look, Scotty's strong, very strong.

894
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 1: I can see Scotty hitting a half court you know what.

895
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 3: Wouldn't be surprised to see Jayleen Brunson do it either.

896
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, mean, he's j they are professional. They can do it.

897
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 2: I mean if we can do a half court shot,

898
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 2: not on camera, but we can the cameras are off.

899
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: Wow, this is this is interesting.

900
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:45,880
Speaker 5: Towns has never made a half court shot in his

901
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 5: NBA career. Oh for seven. Scared to take him? People say, wow,

902
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 5: I am.

903
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 3: Going you got so what are you going to team next?

904
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 1: I want to switch it up. I'm going Team All Stars.

905
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 2: I'm going to back our guy, Scottie Barnes and check

906
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 2: home run and Rip Hamilton.

907
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 1: I believe in Rip Hamilton.

908
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,439
Speaker 2: We're gonna find out Rip Hamilton is a better shooter

909
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 2: than Allen Houston right.

910
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 5: Now, all right, I'm hesitating here, man, Jalen Brunson never

911
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 5: hit a half court shot in his NBA career.

912
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:15,359
Speaker 1: Damn one, oh for one.

913
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 3: That's surprising, just one.

914
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,160
Speaker 1: Scared to take him? What about Scotty Burns? Scotty check

915
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 1: me check.

916
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 5: I'm literally just looking at the basketball reference, like half court.

917
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 5: He used to be called heaves, but now they updated

918
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 5: it to half court. Oh, Scotty's knocked down one for fourteen.

919
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,799
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, Oh, let's it Rip, Yeah, they'll shoot it, Yeah,

920
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:37,439
Speaker 2: no problem, Okay, Dunk Contest. This is our final event

Speaker 2: in the afternoon local time.

925
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:47,879
Speaker 1: You're saying that too early to dunk.

926
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 5: Say it's too early to call it night. That's crazy,

927
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 5: but yeah, it might be too early to dunk evening.

928
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, but we got four new participants, and I hope

00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,319
Speaker 2: Johnson, I mean that could be Jaalen Johnson for crying

936
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 2: out loud, and obviously Richardson could be his dad Jason.

937
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,760
Speaker 1: But no, we got some newbies here.

938
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 2: As always, respect to these guys for going in it,

939
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 2: trying to put on a show.

940
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 1: We'll see. Expectations could not possibly be lower for this.

941
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 1: This might be.

942
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 2: It might be the weakest feel we've ever seen. We

943
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 2: have had some brutal ones, but this has got to be.

944
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:45,800
Speaker 5: There, right, Yeah, this was This is really tough because

945
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 5: at least it's like, Okay, Hi May Hawkes.

946
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: Wasn't a dunk contest.

947
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 5: You're like, what, Yeah, you can go back and you

948
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 5: can find it Hi May Hawkes high school dunk contest footage,

949
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 5: and he can fly like he's doing cool moves back

950
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 5: in high school. So I tried to replicate that with

951
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,319
Speaker 5: all these guys, and I don't even think they.

952
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: Were dunk contest in high school. Really, Keisha Johnson is

953
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 1: not in a dunk on I mean.

954
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 5: At least not videotape. It was tough, it was tough

955
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 5: to find. Yeah, but a lot of a lot of

956
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,839
Speaker 5: nice two handers from all these guys. Yeah, I mean,

957
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 5: Jackson Hayes probably has like the best tape of dunks.

958
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, he's game in game. Yeah.

959
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 3: Yeah.

960
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 4: You brought up a good uh, a good point about

961
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,840
Speaker 4: the photo we've got Jase Richardson. He ain't even dunking.

962
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: No, it looks like he's he's doing a rebounder.

963
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 4: But he hasn't had a handful.

964
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, he hasn't had Yeah. Yeah, it's like the fast

965
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 2: break variety obviously. And they were barely dunks. They looked

966
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 2: like Kyrie Irving dunking to me, I'm sorry that I

967
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:48,440
Speaker 2: have very low expectations for Chase. I hope I'm wrong, man, Chase,

968
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 2: shut me up.

969
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,319
Speaker 1: But who are you taking? Who you're taking.

970
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:53,279
Speaker 3: I think it's Carter Bright.

971
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 4: It feels like the most athletic guy coming into this season,

972
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 4: so I think geeking garry it into a dunk contest, ok,

973
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:03,800
Speaker 4: Carter Bright fair enough?

974
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I like key Shot Johnson and Carter Bryant in

975
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 5: the final. Yeah, those are my picks.

976
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,319
Speaker 1: I'll go key Shot. I'm with TK on this one.

977
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 1: I'm going to key Shot for no real reason. He

978
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 1: had a nice reverse this year.

979
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,400
Speaker 5: Okay, I saw good nice they did like best dunk's

980
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 5: key Shot Johnson's best dunks from the first half of

981
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 5: the season. I'm guessing they put all of them in. Yeah,

982
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 5: but one was nice. Okay. He's got a windmill on

983
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 5: a fast brand that was okay, and he had, like,

984
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 5: like I said, a reverse that was like maybe on

985
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:34,880
Speaker 5: a tip dunk, so it look pretty sweet.

986
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 2: What did you guys make of reports that mac McClung

987
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:41,319
Speaker 2: was saying the league was saying, like a lot of

988
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 2: guys didn't want to go in the dunk contests if

989
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:44,839
Speaker 2: they knew you were going back in it.

990
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: He was recently talking about this.

991
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:48,359
Speaker 2: Like he was getting it. Almost sounded like they kept

992
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,960
Speaker 2: like calling him back. They're like, all right, man, we

993
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 2: sort of want you in it, but maybe this player

994
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 2: won't go in if you're in Okay, okay, Like I

995
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 2: don't know that's what he said.

996
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 5: I believe them, Yeah, because I don't want to go

997
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 5: into that guy's going to jump over a million things. Yeah,

998
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,359
Speaker 5: I's gonna jump over that point.

999
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, it seemed that way when he was asked about

1000
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 4: it a few weeks ago why he wasn't going because

1001
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 4: he said that he's got four great dunks prepared and

1002
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:14,880
Speaker 4: that he was going to release video of it after

1003
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 4: the dunk contest, So he's going to show us that

1004
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 4: he could have won it.

1005
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 2: Let's see what you got, man, Like, I know he

1006
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 2: would never do this. He seems like too nice a guy.

1007
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:26,360
Speaker 2: Probably his appreciative of the NBA in the league. But

1008
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 2: like he could have like a simul cast like or

1009
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 2: a simultaneous dunk contest going on during this, like you

1010
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 2: would get millions of yep.

1011
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:36,359
Speaker 3: Wow, like the Super Bowl halftime show.

1012
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, basically he could do that, but not nearly a

1013
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:43,560
Speaker 2: shitty as the other one, not the real one. But

1014
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 2: just saying he won't do it, but I guess I'll

1015
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 2: just drop him.

1016
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 3: Right aft if he did it at the same time.

1017
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 3: He couldn't do that, so disrespectful to the league where.

1018
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: He's playing millions of it.

1019
00:43:54,960 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, the turning point US Dunk Contest star magnet.

1020
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:04,759
Speaker 1: I don't think no.

1021
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:06,879
Speaker 5: Unfortunately, he's the perfect guy for that.

1022
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 2: Sunday's All Star Game, we go to the grande of

1023
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 2: them all.

1024
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 1: This one. We got some news with this one. Yesterday.

1025
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 2: Spurs guard Dearon Fox was selected to the All Star

1026
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:24,239
Speaker 2: Game as an injury replacement for your honest Fox will

1027
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 2: play for the USA Stripes team. Miami's Norman Powell, who

1028
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:32,360
Speaker 2: has ties to Jamaica his father, I believe born in Jamaica,

1029
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,680
Speaker 2: will move over from the USA Stripes team to fill

1030
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 2: the open spot on the Team World roster. I'm sorry,

1031
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 2: I can't even say this with a straight face. All

1032
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 2: of this so stupid.

1033
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 1: I can't believe.

1034
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 2: But Cat and Norman they both found their way to

1035
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 2: the World team in the end. We were wondering for

1036
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,439
Speaker 2: months how they were going to handle that, and they

1037
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,399
Speaker 2: got there in the end. So the USA Stars team

1038
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,880
Speaker 2: is basically the younger American Stars. USA Stripes team is

1039
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 2: sort of the older heads like your Lebron's and your

1040
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 2: Kevin Durantz I guess those are Kawhi. I guess those

1041
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 2: are the main old guys of the Bunch, and then

1042
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 2: World Team obviously the international guys. There's the odds task

1043
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,799
Speaker 2: USA Stripes the favorites to win this thing plus one

1044
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 2: fifty five on FanDuel World plus one sixty USA Stars

1045
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:24,040
Speaker 2: plus two hundred.

1046
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: Where are you going?

1047
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 2: And let's hear well, I can just show you. Let'

1048
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,880
Speaker 2: show you the MVP odds as well, because here are

1049
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 2: your favorites right now. You've got Wemba Yama the favorite

1050
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:35,520
Speaker 2: plus four to ten, and then it's a big fall

1051
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 2: off Jalen Brown plus nine hundred, Tyrese Maxey plus one thousand,

1052
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,520
Speaker 2: Booker Brunson, Jamal Murray plus eleven hundred. So I want

1053
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 2: the winner and an MVP from U, sir.

1054
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:48,920
Speaker 3: Well, the USA Stripes is gonna win this thing. Kither stacked, and.

1055
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 4: They've got guys who want to go out there and

1056
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 4: be the all star MVP, like Donovan Mitchell, Jalen Brown,

1057
00:45:56,160 --> 00:46:00,360
Speaker 4: there's a Jalen Bronson out there, there's Kawhi Leonard before

1058
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:01,280
Speaker 4: playing in his.

1059
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 3: Home arena, he gets asleep in his own bed and

1060
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 3: get out there and play. I'm taking team stripes.

1061
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 1: I think that's okay, wow.

1062
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 2: Okay, that's some And you that that goes with your

1063
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 2: thinking of like playing later, you've brought that up, you

1064
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:17,360
Speaker 2: don't like the first game that's World versus USA Stars.

1065
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 2: Winning team takes on the stripes. Losing team then takes

1066
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:21,400
Speaker 2: on the stripes in the third game.

1067
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:24,400
Speaker 4: And then we had definitely worried about guys playing a

1068
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 4: game and then having to sit there and rests because

1069
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 4: it happened last year. If it's it's easy to forget

1070
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 4: what that All Star Game was because it was very

1071
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,640
Speaker 4: much a concert in between.

1072
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 3: There's so many things happened in between the games.

1073
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,359
Speaker 4: We were lied to, I shouldn't say lied to, because

1074
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 4: Joe Dumars, off the front off at NBA NBA head Offs,

1075
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:49,080
Speaker 4: came in on our show, not came in zoomed and

1076
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,879
Speaker 4: told us that they've got to taken care of there's

1077
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,440
Speaker 4: not going to be these big gaps. He didn't really know.

1078
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,839
Speaker 4: He just said they'll take care of it. And we

1079
00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:58,480
Speaker 4: saw mister Beast, we saw Tant.

1080
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 3: It was way too long. So I do like the fact.

1081
00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:03,399
Speaker 1: You think they're going to be quicker this year.

1082
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 4: Well yeah, yeah, yeah, because this year unlike last year

1083
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,279
Speaker 4: when they could just go along with the TV broadcast.

1084
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 4: There's Olympics to show out.

1085
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 2: That's right, my man. It's a great point. They need

1086
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,040
Speaker 2: to stick to the schedule a little better, so hopefully

1087
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 2: that means less time between breaks. Okay, So you have

1088
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:26,000
Speaker 2: the USA Stripes, the ogs, let's call them, and.

1089
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 1: You had your m VP. Yeah, I'll go Dono Okay,

1090
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:30,319
Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell.

1091
00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,759
Speaker 5: Come on, man, oh wow, I was gonna pick the

1092
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:34,120
Speaker 5: stripes in I was gonna pick Donovan.

1093
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 1: I'll do it. Yeah, but it's not as fun.

1094
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:39,680
Speaker 4: I'll take John Brown. I'll take John Brown. I'm okay.

1095
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,839
Speaker 4: I mean Mitchell wasn't even on the board for adds.

1096
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 5: I know he's plus fourteen Huntress at least little shock.

1097
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1098
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 2: Okay, so you are taking the stripes and Donovan Mitchell, okay, Trey, Okay.

1099
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,279
Speaker 5: First thing I'll say is I did really like Kevin

1100
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:58,320
Speaker 5: Durant calling out NICOLEA. Jokicch and Luka Dontrid. She's like,

1101
00:47:58,360 --> 00:47:59,880
Speaker 5: you don't think us old guys are gonna play as

1102
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 5: the Europeans. Why they don't take it seriously? Nobody ever

1103
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:03,799
Speaker 5: brings them up.

1104
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 1: We do, Yeah, we did.

1105
00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 5: Kevin bringing up every single time. I also wonder is

1106
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 5: Luca even playing. He hasn't played what the last five games,

1107
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:16,800
Speaker 5: and I don't think so. Yeah, so another name down

1108
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 5: for the World team.

1109
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 1: I do like that.

1110
00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 5: Victor wen Binyama came out and said I'm gonna play hard.

1111
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,600
Speaker 5: So they're like, well, he's the favorite for MVP. Yeah,

1112
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:26,439
Speaker 5: he actually cares.

1113
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:27,719
Speaker 1: He did play hard last year.

1114
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:32,280
Speaker 2: He did play hard last year, harder than most.

1115
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,759
Speaker 5: Tyrese Maxi is on the stars. He is all right,

1116
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:38,920
Speaker 5: I'll pick the stars in Maxi.

1117
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:42,080
Speaker 2: Okay, going with a little speedy guard hit a bunch

1118
00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:42,439
Speaker 2: of three.

1119
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:45,160
Speaker 3: Can we edit that part out and you can do

1120
00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:46,000
Speaker 3: it first and I can do.

1121
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:48,880
Speaker 1: That's all good, just like some variants.

1122
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,799
Speaker 4: I will say this about Durant's comments about Team International,

1123
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,759
Speaker 4: yannistad to GOOPO wanted us a versus the world.

1124
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,960
Speaker 3: He was super pumped to play it. He tweeted about it.

1125
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:00,680
Speaker 3: Let's do this last year.

1126
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, there wasn't an image that someone created of Luca

1127
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 4: and Jokic and all that. And then he was asked

1128
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 4: about it at a press conference, he said, oh, yeah,

1129
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:12,400
Speaker 4: I would love Luca nuclear Jokic and Shay and me

1130
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:15,279
Speaker 4: on the same team and no disrespect to other guys.

1131
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 4: I can't think of off the top of my head

1132
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:20,440
Speaker 4: who's being very, very very respecful to everybody on team

1133
00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 4: and arsity. But he wanted to play, and watching these

1134
00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:25,600
Speaker 4: guys play in person, there is one guy who does

1135
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,680
Speaker 4: get down and ready to play defense in these games,

1136
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:33,360
Speaker 4: and it's Giannest So he can't play, unfortunately, disappointing.

1137
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:35,680
Speaker 2: Part three guys, if Luca doesn't play, that they're now

1138
00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 2: missing Sga is not playing in this game. He actually,

1139
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:40,319
Speaker 2: you know, sort of takes this thing a little bit

1140
00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,319
Speaker 2: more serious or it did last year. You brought up

1141
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:44,440
Speaker 2: you honest, that's a good point. And then maybe Luca, No,

1142
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:46,200
Speaker 2: he doesn't take this serious at all, So that's probably

1143
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,200
Speaker 2: that's the that's a positive for Team World. That's who

1144
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:50,759
Speaker 2: I'm taking, baby, I'll take the World team in the end,

1145
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,880
Speaker 2: and I'll take Victor women Yama. I won't overthink this one.

1146
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:55,600
Speaker 2: If they win, he's gonna.

1147
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 3: Go now, sorry, why is that a reason to take Tea?

1148
00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:59,200
Speaker 1: Because Luca sucks in these and doesn't give a shit.

1149
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:01,840
Speaker 2: Uh huh, So he's probably not going to play, Okay,

1150
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:03,520
Speaker 2: So that's good for the rest of the mergat Yeah,

1151
00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 2: because I mean it's more minutes for Jamal Murray, Dannyovdia whatever.

1152
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:07,480
Speaker 1: Just like trying harder.

1153
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 2: Okay, it's really gonna come down to what does Yokic do?

1154
00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 2: Gonna ully gag his way through this. The funniest outcome

1155
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:18,920
Speaker 2: would be to me Karl Anthony Towns or Norman Powell

1156
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:22,319
Speaker 2: winning m VP for Team World, because then people will.

1157
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:24,880
Speaker 1: Go, what the hell, man, you're sot of American? Are

1158
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:29,320
Speaker 1: you not right here? Okay? Whatever Cat could I could see.

1159
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 2: I could squint and see Cat putting up a ton

1160
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,240
Speaker 2: of points, hit a bunch of threes, bunch of easy

1161
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 2: buckets around the room.

1162
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:37,919
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, Yannis did mention Kat I'm playing on Team

1163
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 4: World because I guess Y just knows everybody who plays

1164
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 4: for their their country. And yeah, Kat always plays for

1165
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,400
Speaker 4: Dominic Republic. Norman Pal's playing for Jamaica next year. I

1166
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:52,080
Speaker 4: looked it up in the World Cup qualifiers. So that's

1167
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:54,399
Speaker 4: cool with everybody. Well, Donovan Mitchell, I think is gonna

1168
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:56,960
Speaker 4: win MVP this year because he can win it on

1169
00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 4: Team International next year because he's going to play for

1170
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:02,600
Speaker 4: Team Panama eventually, as he said.

1171
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,319
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's that's another reason. But I don't like.

1172
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:08,640
Speaker 4: The stars just because they got Anthony Edwards. Mean you're

1173
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:11,200
Speaker 4: mentioning the guys that don't play.

1174
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 5: He's third from last for winning. Oh wait, no he's not.

1175
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 5: These are not sorted.

1176
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 1: What is my odds? He's plus two thousands, So yeah,

1177
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:22,319
Speaker 1: that's sort of pretty low though in a game like this, yeah,

1178
00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:24,600
Speaker 1: to be awesome, we remind.

1179
00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 2: People like this is not East versus West forty eight

1180
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:31,480
Speaker 2: minutes here, like these are like quick twelve.

1181
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 1: Minute games, quick twelve verse like Kurt.

1182
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 2: And I hate this and bugsby to no end, Like

1183
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 2: Curry was the MVP of last year's All Star Game.

1184
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,520
Speaker 1: He scored twelve points. He scored twelve points in the

1185
00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:44,719
Speaker 1: final game because it was like to forty one or

1186
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 1: whatever the hell it was.

1187
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 2: He hit like four four threes and that was enough,

1188
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 2: had a couple of steals. It's like, I just can't

1189
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:53,520
Speaker 2: stand that. It just like ruins it for some reason.

1190
00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 4: For is it better for you that they're playing twelve

1191
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 4: minutes this year? As it goes to a number two number.

1192
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:02,440
Speaker 2: Maybe it's gonna be still. How many points is the

1193
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:08,320
Speaker 2: MVP gonna put up in the final game? Yeah, maybe twenty,

1194
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:13,440
Speaker 2: maybe that's a lot. Yeah, so wemby, good luck to you, sir.

1195
00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 5: Do you think they'll follow FIBA rules where if you

1196
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:19,279
Speaker 5: play for one All Star nationality you can't ever switch teams.

1197
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,840
Speaker 5: That should be a Donovan will be stuck as a

1198
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:23,040
Speaker 5: USA player forever.

1199
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:24,240
Speaker 1: Here's the real question.

1200
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:28,400
Speaker 2: Will we have this exact same format next year in Phoenix?

1201
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 2: Will we have USA stars and stripes in world.

1202
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,520
Speaker 1: Exact a mundo? Yeah, exact a munda. I don't think so.

1203
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:38,280
Speaker 5: I don't either, But we haven't had James Jones campaigning

1204
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:40,520
Speaker 5: telling us it's gonna be good. They would roll Joe

1205
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:43,759
Speaker 5: Dumars out there every year. Yea, Joe go out and

1206
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 5: tell him to play hard. They're gonna play hard, and

1207
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:46,840
Speaker 5: then they don't play hard.

1208
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 1: James Jones is like, I ain't doing that.

1209
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 2: Back to basketball Indianapolis here, that will never be tapped.

1210
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 2: We're going back to hardcore competitive bas East versus West,

1211
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 2: and it was the worst start.

1212
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:03,400
Speaker 1: It was like two hundred and eleven times.

1213
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:08,840
Speaker 4: I think they find a way to get multiple countries

1214
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:11,560
Speaker 4: involved somehow. It's kind of difficult to do, but you

1215
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:15,279
Speaker 4: can get Canada, Canada, US, Australia, a bunch of the

1216
00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 4: Serbia like a five on five kind of.

1217
00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:17,400
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1218
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:21,040
Speaker 2: God says this is just for the Olympic year. Here

1219
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:25,000
Speaker 2: that the international flavor. Yeah, maybe we go back to

1220
00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:25,520
Speaker 2: something else.

1221
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:28,719
Speaker 4: They're copying the Hockey four Nations tournament from last year,

1222
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:30,960
Speaker 4: which worked awesome with a Finland.

1223
00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:33,160
Speaker 3: You know, I think we can find a way.

1224
00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 4: I don't think we can find a finished team for NBA.

1225
00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 1: Mika Murinin.

1226
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:40,480
Speaker 3: Get Mika Murinin.

1227
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, play, we want to see him. We want to

1228
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:45,239
Speaker 1: see him play. Bought him in the dunk contest. Why not.

1229
00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:49,399
Speaker 5: The new Remus Kurtonitis sorts.

1230
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 2: Good poll Lithuanian legend apparently played in the NBL. I

1231
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,160
Speaker 2: saw people tweeting on us.

1232
00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 5: Yeah he's the coach of the coach of Lithuania's national team.

1233
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:00,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't know that. Yeah, I think you shaved

1234
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 1: his mustache though. Unfortunately, Oh terrible the eighties.

1235
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:06,880
Speaker 2: So here's what we're gonna be doing this weekend. Guys,

1236
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 2: We're gonna be watching all this stuff live. So we

1237
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:12,960
Speaker 2: are gonna be having some fun hanging out here in

1238
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,920
Speaker 2: the Classic Factory. Hopefully we'll be your second screen as

1239
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:17,520

1299
00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:03,200

1300
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:05,719
Speaker 4: set up the Bulls Celtics game.

1301
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:11,680

Speaker 3: How does he not know that?

1306
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:24,560
Speaker 1: It's late at night?

1307
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:24,800
Speaker 3: Man?

1308
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 1: Just for that voice over work, he sounded tired.

1309
00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:31,600
Speaker 3: What are you talking about? He said?

1310
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,560
Speaker 1: That guy sounded older star.

1311
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, he k he kind of sounds like our old

1312
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:40,400
Speaker 4: friend who came into the NBA TV studios.

1313
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 5: Vaneral right right does a little bit, But that's not

1314
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 5: him anyways.

1315
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,400
Speaker 3: He doesn't write that himself. Somebody writes it for him.

1316
00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:48,160
Speaker 1: That's true.

1317
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 4: Either way, you should know that's his fourth time. He's

1318
00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:54,560
Speaker 4: being this guy's finals MVP. Might be going to Turkey

1319
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:56,800
Speaker 4: to fix his hair. That's what you should be saying

1320
00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 4: about this guy.

1321
00:57:58,520 --> 00:57:59,000
Speaker 3: Just weird.

1322
00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:02,760
Speaker 4: Just that's the NBA app, that's the most respected app

1323
00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:05,640
Speaker 4: for this game. You want integrity, You say that this

1324
00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:06,720
Speaker 4: guy is a four time Allster.

1325
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:07,400
Speaker 1: She wants silver.

1326
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:11,880
Speaker 5: To find this guy on hundred thousands, that's what you're saying.

1327
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:17,120
Speaker 2: Be hilarious. Game sent Tasta All Star Weekend to the

1328
00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:21,160
Speaker 2: Silver Press conference. The first question everybody think it's gonna

1329
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:26,680
Speaker 2: be a tanking or anything else in test is like,

1330
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:28,680
Speaker 2: what are you gonna do about that guy that said

1331
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:30,400
Speaker 2: Jayleen Brown was a one time All Star.

1332
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:36,120
Speaker 4: You want premiere exposures, Adam, You want everybody to do

1333
00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:38,960
Speaker 4: things properly on the NBA app. Yeah, that's a great question,

1334
00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:41,400
Speaker 4: and it was. I think that is written for him probably,

1335
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:45,120
Speaker 4: you know, just like at every TV station sports TV

1336
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:47,800
Speaker 4: station or I don't think he writes it himself, but

1337
00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:50,440
Speaker 4: if he did, that's even worse. You just go to

1338
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:54,320
Speaker 4: his to the Jalen Brown on Basketball Reference.

1339
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:57,040
Speaker 1: Some intern wrote probably one time All Star.

1340
00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:59,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, or well, he says first time All Star exactly,

1341
00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:02,480
Speaker 5: first time? So is that this is Jalen Browns first

1342
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:03,120
Speaker 5: time as a starter?

1343
00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:05,440
Speaker 3: Right? Oh, maybe his first time All Star.

1344
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:07,920
Speaker 1: You got to read the full copy. That's probably what

1345
00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:08,280
Speaker 1: it is.

1346
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:12,360
Speaker 4: He missed the words starter. Okay, good point, very good point. Yeah,

1347
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:14,920
Speaker 4: and this will be this will be Jaylen Brown's fifth

1348
00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:19,480
Speaker 4: time as an All Star. So yeah, there's no excuse

1349
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 4: that it was fourth and then it sounded like first.

1350
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,720
Speaker 3: Anyway, You're right, there could.

1351
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:25,960
Speaker 5: Be a little bit more quality control going into these recaps.

1352
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,240
Speaker 5: I'll say I saw I saw a game a couple

1353
00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:31,640
Speaker 5: of weeks ago between the Memphis Grizzlies and the Sacramento Grizzlies.

1354
00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:38,160
Speaker 1: Hey, let me guess you one Memphis.

1355
00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:42,160
Speaker 5: Of course, Sacramento isn't one in a month, so you're right.

1356
00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:46,600
Speaker 4: Second Worst of the Week nominee. This NBA writer had

1357
00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:51,320
Speaker 4: his laptop broken by a flying T shirt in an arena.

1358
00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:56,560
Speaker 4: A T shirt canyon in Phoenix broke our man, Tony Jones,

1359
00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:59,760
Speaker 4: our former colleague at the Athletic because it took out

1360
00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:03,280
Speaker 4: his laptop. This is Tony Jones' tweet. He said, this

1361
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:06,240
Speaker 4: T shirt shot in the canon toss in the fourth quarter.

1362
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 4: Killed my laptop. It hit the computer, and then the

1363
01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:11,880
Speaker 4: computer hit me in the face. What It scratched my

1364
01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 4: beloved laptop clear across the screen. No story from me tonight.

1365
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:19,240
Speaker 4: He can't do the story. And then a second photo,

1366
01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 4: which is part of a tweet from Tony Jones showing

1367
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:23,840
Speaker 4: his broken laptop.

1368
01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:26,240
Speaker 3: It kind of smashed by this T shirt.

1369
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 1: How did this happen?

1370
01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:30,240
Speaker 3: How the hell did the laptop his face?

1371
01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:34,400
Speaker 1: That's a great question. It's like looking at his game

1372
01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:41,600
Speaker 1: story like this bang T shirt cancer, Like that's the

1373
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 1: only way that could happen.

1374
01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:43,000
Speaker 3: It's weird.

1375
01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 4: If you want to see the broken laptop and Skeet's

1376
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:47,880
Speaker 4: holding a laptop to his face and make sure you

1379
01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 4: second Bowl in Phoenix.

1380
01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:56,440
Speaker 3: But it looked like he wasn't close to the car.

1381
01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:59,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he was probably so first ring there.

Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean those cannons are propulsive.

1384
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:09,360
Speaker 3: They're going to the Bowl these days, they are.

1385

Speaker 2: I think if if a T shirt fired out of

1395
01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:57,080
Speaker 2: a cannon, obviously at pretty high speeds, just hit the

1396
01:01:57,120 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 2: back of your laptop in the right spot, obviously, I

1397
01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:02,479
Speaker 2: think it would do that. I think it would glitch,

1398
01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:05,400
Speaker 2: like if I punched one of your laptops right, like,

1399
01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:06,400
Speaker 2: let me hold the laptop.

1400
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 1: Yeh, screen even though it's weird coming from the other side. So,

1401
01:02:10,880 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 1: but the face part is strange.

1402
01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:13,120
Speaker 3: It is strange.

1403
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:15,400
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe he means it. No, I was gonna say

1404
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:17,080
Speaker 2: it like hit his laptop and then the teacher.

1405
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:17,560
Speaker 1: Hit him in the face.

1406
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:19,440
Speaker 3: But yeah, he said it.

1407
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:21,680
Speaker 1: Let's get Tony on do good thirty minutes on this. Yeah,

1408
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:23,760
Speaker 1: we got a lot of questions.

1409
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,440
Speaker 4: Third Worst of the Week nominee probably the blooper of

1410
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,440
Speaker 4: the season from the Los Angeles Clippers because the guy

1411
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:33,320
Speaker 4: Jordan Miller, he's inbounding the ball and then you can

1412
01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:36,640
Speaker 4: see that Chris Dunn is just letting it roll because

1413
01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:38,800
Speaker 4: there's fourteen seconds left on the clock. You know, I

1414
01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:40,920
Speaker 4: mentioned time because he's trying to save time, so the

1415
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:42,760
Speaker 4: clock doesn't start till he picks it up. But then

1416
01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:44,640
Speaker 4: he says, hey, Jordan Miller, you go pick it up,

1417
01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:48,800
Speaker 4: but he just inbounded. Chris, you can't do that.

1418
01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:50,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, who do you blame there?

1419
01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:54,320
Speaker 2: Because you want to blame the guy Jordan Miller because

1420
01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:56,600
Speaker 2: he did the infraction, But it's sort of Chris done,

1421
01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:56,920
Speaker 2: is it not?

1422
01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:57,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, like he.

1423
01:02:57,720 --> 01:02:59,720
Speaker 2: Did inbound it to you and then you just left

1424
01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 2: it right You've already gone, so you just touched it

1425
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:03,720
Speaker 2: picked it up.

1426
01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:06,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then you had a brain fart. He must

1427
01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 4: have a brain fart not picking it up and deciding

1428
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:12,439
Speaker 4: you run the play, Jordan Miller, or maybe not, maybe

1429
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:12,880
Speaker 4: you just had a.

1430
01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:15,240
Speaker 1: Whole points at him, grab that Look at is that

1431
01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:17,120
Speaker 1: schen good in the back point And you can't do that.

1432
01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:19,400
Speaker 1: You can't do that. That's a real pickup basketball move

1433
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:21,840
Speaker 1: right there? To bring pick up hoops? How many times

1434
01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:25,000
Speaker 1: have people done that. Yeah, nobody cares to bring it up.

1435
01:03:25,040 --> 01:03:25,600
Speaker 3: Just bring it up.

1436
01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:28,560
Speaker 1: You all lives.

1437
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:32,760
Speaker 2: Exactly, exactly good nominees, really good. Where would you go

1438
01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:36,760
Speaker 2: if you had to vote courses the week? You really

1439
01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 2: didn't like this voiceover guy's disrespectful.

1440
01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:43,959
Speaker 4: I think I think the NBA as a whole, they're

1441
01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 4: trying to improve, they're trying to and they're trying to

1442
01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:49,680
Speaker 4: battle Instagram because this is a highlight league as absolutely,

1443
01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,080
Speaker 4: they're trying to battle because they voice, they use the

1444
01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:55,560
Speaker 4: voice of the broadcasters more. You know, they do that,

1445
01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:57,920
Speaker 4: which is nice.

1446
01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:00,680
Speaker 3: So's the funniest one is a last one?

1447
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:02,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, great blooper.

1448
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 4: It's a bloop that would have been a weekend who

1449
01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:06,160
Speaker 4: see or whatever?

1450
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:07,800

1507
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:42,160
Speaker 5: I saw one this week from the Blazers that was like,

1508
01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:44,800
Speaker 5: what do you know more about than anybody on the team,

1509
01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:48,360
Speaker 5: And Donovan Klingon said fishing in Chipotle and I was like,

1510
01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:50,800
Speaker 5: I love this guy so much.

1511
01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:53,240

Speaker 2: your boy drilling.

1514
01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:01,919
Speaker 5: On the roof, blocking shots, audishing and then he goes

1515
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:03,880
Speaker 5: home and tries to catch a bass and eat a giant.

1516
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:06,360
Speaker 1: Great stuff.

1517
01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:09,200
Speaker 4: That was funny because he said fishing, and then somebody

1518
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:11,280
Speaker 4: else came into the shot and he said what do

1519
01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:12,000

1520
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:13,680
Speaker 3: And the guy said fishing. Yeah, that's right.

1521
01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:18,200

Speaker 1: Donovan Clinging gets whoa boy? Pick him? Standings no game

1523
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:22,600
Speaker 1: to pick from tonight?

1524
01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:25,000
Speaker 2: We are not picking the Rising Stars game because he

1525
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:28,320
Speaker 2: sort of can because there's too many teams, So what

1526
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:28,760
Speaker 2: would we do?

1527
01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:31,480
Speaker 1: I guess we could have picked a celebrity game. I

1528
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:33,760
Speaker 1: don't know. Is there a line on that. I'm not sure.

1529
01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:36,480
Speaker 1: I saw my first shams clip though. He was playing

1530
01:07:36,480 --> 01:07:37,640
Speaker 1: defense against somebody.

1531
01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:39,880
Speaker 2: Oh don't see that one. I saw one where he's

1532
01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 2: hitting a bunch of shots. He's got a decent looking release. Yeah,

1533
01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:43,720
Speaker 2: shoo's okay.

1534
01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:47,080
Speaker 4: I saw the commercial bit for one where he's doing

1535
01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:49,360
Speaker 4: the thing on the phone, puts the phone literally on

1536
01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:51,920
Speaker 4: the basketball floor, gets a ball and shoots.

1537
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:53,800
Speaker 1: I hate nice.

1538
01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:54,520
Speaker 3: He can do it all.

1539
01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:57,240
Speaker 2: So no game, and we'll take a little pause here

1540
01:07:57,480 --> 01:07:59,600
Speaker 2: when it comes to picking games for about a week

1541
01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:02,200
Speaker 2: or so because we don't get back to real basketball

1542
01:08:02,280 --> 01:08:04,880
Speaker 2: until next Thursday night. But here's the standings in February.

1543
01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:07,440

1544
01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 2: the Jazz. Yeah, there was for a good chunk of it.

1545
01:08:09,760 --> 01:08:11,640
Speaker 2: I thought they were going to cover and got a

1546
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:12,800
Speaker 2: little out of hands at the end.

1547
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:13,840
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah.

1548
01:08:13,840 --> 01:08:16,320
Speaker 2: So I'm four and five, so is Trey and Task

1549
01:08:16,400 --> 01:08:17,800
Speaker 2: in the lead at six and three. So it's a

1550
01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:20,400
Speaker 2: nice battle here. It's still we'll still have a decent

1551
01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:22,000
Speaker 2: amount of time once we get back. We have like

1552
01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:23,639
Speaker 2: a week or nights, okay, seven nights.

1553
01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:24,439
Speaker 1: There you go, there you go.

1554
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:29,200
Speaker 2: So those are the standings in our pick up. It's

1555
01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:31,439
Speaker 2: the drop, which means we always do rapid fire. I

1556
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:33,760
Speaker 2: got the questions this week, these guys and JD have

1557
01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:37,040
Speaker 2: the answers. Let's get into it first, one white chocolate himself.

1558
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 2: Jason Williams says, Jared McCain needs to get his shit

1559
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:42,479
Speaker 2: together and delete.

1560
01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,679
Speaker 1: Is TikTok now that he's on the Oklahoma City Thunder. Okay,

1561
01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:47,360
Speaker 1: eas easy, white chocolate.

1562
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:49,919
Speaker 2: But I want to know what's an app or service

1563
01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:53,560
Speaker 2: you probably should delete, but you won't.

1564
01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:57,000
Speaker 4: I won't delete the playback app, which is how we

1565
01:08:57,120 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 4: used to watch games together with fans.

1566
01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:03,400
Speaker 3: Two reasons. You know, it's a I'm a little sentimental,

1567
01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:05,920
Speaker 3: and the second reason is it's gonna come back one day.

1568
01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:07,200
Speaker 3: It might be in a different form.

1569
01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:09,960
Speaker 4: Might have to delete that one and download something else,

1570
01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:12,320
Speaker 4: but it'll be back. It'll be back, and it's just

1571
01:09:12,360 --> 01:09:15,439
Speaker 4: a good idea. It's it's been an idea forever for

1572
01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:17,280
Speaker 4: people to watch games together. So it makes sense.

1573
01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:19,960
Speaker 1: It was a good app. And I see it, and

1574
01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:21,120
Speaker 1: I see I.

1575
01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:23,599
Speaker 4: Don't need it, but you're staying on the keep it

1576
01:09:23,640 --> 01:09:26,519
Speaker 4: and my bookmark is still there for playback on my computer,

1577
01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:29,840
Speaker 4: still keeping it there. You know, it's on the little

1578
01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:32,960
Speaker 4: little bar the bar bookmark thing app.

1579
01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 3: Think no not app.

1580
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:36,960
Speaker 1: It was unfortunate that it closed down, for sure. What

1581
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:39,080
Speaker 1: about you TK, I wrote down playback as well.

1582
01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:41,400
Speaker 5: I actually opened the app yesterday and all it does

1583
01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:44,080
Speaker 5: is just open and stay at a plane screen with

1584
01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:45,439
Speaker 5: our little swirly guy on.

1585
01:09:45,479 --> 01:09:48,280
Speaker 1: It looks beautiful, nice logo. It's a nice logo, a

1586
01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:49,080
Speaker 1: nice looking app.

1587
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:49,840
Speaker 3: You guys.

1588
01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:53,080
Speaker 1: Really it doesn't do anything. It doesn't do anything at all.

1589
01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:57,000
Speaker 5: But also I guess Twitter, Sure that's just a time suck,

1590
01:09:57,080 --> 01:09:57,679
Speaker 5: But I'm going.

1591
01:09:57,560 --> 01:09:58,120
Speaker 1: Down with the ship.

1592
01:09:58,120 --> 01:10:02,920
Speaker 5: I'll never There's no better way to get NBA news,

1593
01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:06,240
Speaker 5: no better way to say see random highlights unfortunately.

1594
01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:09,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I'm.

1595
01:10:09,680 --> 01:10:13,320
Speaker 5: Stupidly locked into this dumb app. I just saw you

1596
01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 5: recently started following account. I just did too. I think

1597
01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:20,840
Speaker 5: it's fairly new NBA replays underscore. I think at the end.

1598
01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:25,920
Speaker 2: Basically just leaning into like old cool clips for iconic

1599
01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:27,479
Speaker 2: games or big moments.

1600
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:28,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all it is.

1601
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:30,920
Speaker 2: That's it, and it's uh it feels like a good

1602
01:10:30,920 --> 01:10:33,720
Speaker 2: follow if you're still on that app. Yeah, JD, what's

1603
01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:36,400
Speaker 2: an app? Or service that you should delete but you won't.

1604
01:10:36,880 --> 01:10:39,679
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I basically I've deleted playback.

1605
01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:42,479
Speaker 6: Sorry guys, Sorry, that's alright. It was done.

1606
01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:45,519
Speaker 1: I thought it was done, was done. You're right.

1607
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:47,120
Speaker 3: I opened it again just to see it.

1608
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:53,320
Speaker 4: It says for me, thank you for the great times, something.

1609
01:10:56,000 --> 01:10:56,400
Speaker 1: Amazing.

1610
01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:02,840
Speaker 7: But my answer is probably Facebook. I mean, I'd never

1611
01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:04,759
Speaker 7: go on it, but it's like, how am I gonna

1612
01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:06,679
Speaker 7: keep in touch with Bill from the starters?

1613
01:11:06,720 --> 01:11:07,160
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?

1614
01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:11,519
Speaker 6: Like, sure, that's it, Like that's my only real connection.

1615
01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:11,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1616
01:11:11,880 --> 01:11:15,320
Speaker 2: We post all our stuff to our note young Facebook page. Still, yeah,

1617
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:18,920
Speaker 2: you know it's not the biggest community over there, but yeah, yeah.

1618
01:11:18,560 --> 01:11:21,519
Speaker 6: And you know, but I got family on there and

1619
01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:22,559
Speaker 6: who I never see.

1620
01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:25,840
Speaker 2: So I mean I'm on Facebook probably more than any

1621
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:28,920
Speaker 2: of us, with maybe the posting to our page or

1622
01:11:29,160 --> 01:11:30,360
Speaker 2: just I'm just on it more.

1623
01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:34,080
Speaker 1: You think X is bad or crazy? You think some

1624
01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:36,000
Speaker 1: of these other one, Oh my god, it's there is

1625
01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:40,679
Speaker 1: the weirdest shit going on on Facebook, like AI slop

1626
01:11:40,720 --> 01:11:46,440
Speaker 1: and like obviously faith news, and it's a minefield. It's unbelievable.

1627
01:11:46,840 --> 01:11:49,280
Speaker 1: It makes X look normal. I'm telling you, it's like

1628
01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:52,800
Speaker 1: and that's crazy. That's half all bots, like it's it's

1629
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:54,120
Speaker 1: weird in Facebook.

1630
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:57,360
Speaker 2: But then it's like, oh, yeah, there's my my friend's

1631
01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 2: mom taking a photo of her plate of food right

1632
01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:00,519
Speaker 2: up to that.

1633
01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:01,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a nice looking plate.

1634
01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:02,519
Speaker 6: Francis, Yeah exactly.

1635
01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:02,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1636
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:04,599
Speaker 7: But if you linger on the wrong thing and you

1637
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,160
Speaker 7: only have to like linger on it for a second

1638
01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:07,679
Speaker 7: or moment.

1639
01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:08,960
Speaker 1: And then it's all here you go, you want more

1640
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:09,160
Speaker 1: of that?

1641

1643
01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:19,040
Speaker 7: week straight because I stopped, like what is this? Okay,

1644
01:12:19,160 --> 01:12:20,719
Speaker 7: all right, moved on and then.

1645
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 6: It was like nothing but just girls and mechanical bulls.

1646
01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:25,920
Speaker 7: And then I was like, okay, it's kind of cool,

1647
01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:26,599
Speaker 7: I guess, and.

1648

01:14:53,680 --> 01:14:54,679
Speaker 1: That was pretty cool.

1703
01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:58,160
Speaker 5: I also like the re emergence on my favorite app

1704
01:14:58,560 --> 01:14:59,799
Speaker 5: Twitter of the guy.

1705
01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:01,440
Speaker 1: Smack his nuts into the game.

1706
01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:04,559
Speaker 3: The games.

1707
01:15:04,680 --> 01:15:07,040
Speaker 5: But I do like seeing it and listening to it.

1708
01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:10,640
Speaker 5: Now that one's one that the algorithm can feed me

1709
01:15:10,640 --> 01:15:13,280
Speaker 5: as many times as possible because I'll always click in.

1710
01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:17,920
Speaker 5: But ultimately for me, Minion's guy oh Thomas Lawrence Guarino

1711
01:15:18,040 --> 01:15:21,760
Speaker 5: Sabat of Spain went through a lot of issues to

1712
01:15:21,800 --> 01:15:26,320
Speaker 5: be able to I stayed to a Minion song while

1713
01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:29,839
Speaker 5: dressed as but he did it.

1714
01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:31,880
Speaker 1: They said he couldn't do it, but he did it.

1715
01:15:32,040 --> 01:15:35,160
Speaker 1: He got the copyright clearance and it was crazy.

1716
01:15:35,520 --> 01:15:39,439
Speaker 5: It's just Minion's singing a song, not like a Minion's

1717
01:15:39,479 --> 01:15:43,639
Speaker 5: theme song. Literally Minion vocals pumping through the crowd while

1718
01:15:43,680 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 5: this grown man is dressed as very funny.

1719
01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:51,040
Speaker 2: To go back to your awesome guy crashing his nuts

1720
01:15:51,040 --> 01:15:54,360
Speaker 2: into the gate downhill ski clip? What is the Mount

1721
01:15:54,439 --> 01:15:57,719
Speaker 2: rushmore of Olympic clips that every four years come around

1722
01:15:57,720 --> 01:16:00,400
Speaker 2: and you're happy about that one is one. The other

1723
01:16:00,439 --> 01:16:05,360
Speaker 2: one sind six zero getting upset ice dancing judges from way.

1724
01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:08,879
Speaker 1: Back in the day just watched it. Still a banger,

1725
01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:11,800
Speaker 1: it's still amazing. And then I'm sure we got to

1726
01:16:11,800 --> 01:16:13,160
Speaker 1: find some other ones that we could add.

1727
01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:13,519
Speaker 3: To that list.

1728
01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:15,800
Speaker 2: But yeah, you don't need to wait every four years

1729
01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:16,800
Speaker 2: for these, is what we're saying.

1730
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:18,920
Speaker 1: Sure sprinkles in every four months for all week here.

1731
01:16:19,439 --> 01:16:21,559
Speaker 1: What about you, JD. Favorite moment or story from the

1732
01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:22,519
Speaker 1: Winter Olympic Games.

1733
01:16:22,600 --> 01:16:25,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm not proud of this one, and this is

1734
01:16:25,680 --> 01:16:28,840
Speaker 7: a peek into my soul. It's along the same lines

1735
01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:32,120
Speaker 7: as the guy hitting his nuts on the barrier there.

1736
01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:35,000
Speaker 7: But I had a rough week, and I'm also I'm

1737
01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:36,240
Speaker 7: going to clear my throat a little.

1738
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:37,360
Speaker 3: I had a rough week.

1739
01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:37,759
Speaker 6: Also.

1740
01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:41,320
Speaker 7: I love this country, but I'm Canadian. I root against

1741
01:16:41,320 --> 01:16:45,880
Speaker 7: the US, you know, and it's been a rough week.

1742
01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:49,360
Speaker 7: And I just watched our girls go down five nothing.

1743
01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:51,400
Speaker 6: To the US, then.

1744
01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:56,360
Speaker 7: US US Hockey or the US beat US, and then

1745
01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:59,599
Speaker 7: I needed to win, guys, And I was watching speed

1746
01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:05,120
Speaker 7: skata and then Corin's daughter walked into my life and

1747
01:17:05,160 --> 01:17:09,400
Speaker 7: crashed three times, and it was I took such pleasure

1748
01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:12,960
Speaker 7: in that. I'm not proud of it, proud, I'm not proud,

1749
01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:15,800
Speaker 7: but I felt bad immediately after.

1750
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:20,000
Speaker 6: But god damn it was. It was very sweet to watch.

1751
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:22,639
Speaker 7: Three times this girl felt I love people falling down

1752
01:17:22,680 --> 01:17:27,559
Speaker 7: to you things that my algorithm is full of that

1753
01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:31,760
Speaker 7: as well. Nobody got hurt. But you know, this poor girl,

1754
01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:35,000
Speaker 7: so she's American. She's American, and she felt three times

1755
01:17:35,040 --> 01:17:39,679
Speaker 7: like in the relay and in her own race, every

1756
01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:42,400
Speaker 7: race that I saw her in within an hour she

1757
01:17:42,479 --> 01:17:46,320
Speaker 7: crashed and it was just brutal to watch. But I

1758
01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:49,880
Speaker 7: took such pleasure in it. And I'm a bad person.

1759
01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:52,840
Speaker 7: I am a bad person. But you know it didn't

1760
01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:55,400
Speaker 7: lead to a Canadian winning. I don't even know. I

1761
01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:57,519
Speaker 7: didn't even watch the end of the speed skating. It

1762
01:17:57,560 --> 01:18:00,639
Speaker 7: was like, okay, that's a way and that turn off

1763
01:18:00,640 --> 01:18:00,920
Speaker 7: the TV.

1764
01:18:01,680 --> 01:18:05,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it has been the greatest Winter Olympics for our

1765
01:18:05,200 --> 01:18:08,240
Speaker 2: Canadian team. Do we even have a gold yet? I

1766
01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:11,759
Speaker 2: don't think so. I got a couple silvers and bronzes,

1767
01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:15,280
Speaker 2: but not the greatest one. Italy's got the host country

1768
01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:18,840
Speaker 2: bump right now. Man, they're at the standings in total medals.

1769
01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:19,960
Speaker 1: I know Norway has more goals.

1770
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:21,960
Speaker 4: I thought I thought Norway was up there, and my

1771
01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:23,840
Speaker 4: daughter kept telling me, no, it's Italy, it's Italy.

1772
01:18:23,920 --> 01:18:26,799
Speaker 3: I said, no, let's check the standing.

1773
01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:30,799
Speaker 2: I think you think the leader should be with gold

1774
01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:32,439
Speaker 2: at the top or total medals.

1775
01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:35,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, that always comes down to that uh final one.

1776
01:18:35,400 --> 01:18:37,920
Speaker 2: Here fun article from The Athletic this week that highlights

Speaker 1: I tried.

1828
01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:10,160
Speaker 2: It wouldn't work. What about you, TK, what's something you've

1829
01:21:10,160 --> 01:21:12,719
Speaker 2: only done once in your life? Winter Olympics tie in curling?

1830
01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:13,559
Speaker 3: Oh?

1831
01:21:13,760 --> 01:21:17,160
Speaker 5: When did curling one time? Oh yeah, too much training,

1832
01:21:17,880 --> 01:21:19,000
Speaker 5: too much training before.

1833
01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:19,960
Speaker 1: They let you touch the rocks.

1834
01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:22,240
Speaker 5: I had to learn how to slide before I touched

1835
01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:24,200
Speaker 5: the rocks. I would love to go to pick up curling.

1836
01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:27,160
Speaker 5: I'm sure that was happening. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, where

1837
01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:30,400
Speaker 5: you can just you know, just throwing stones left and right.

1838
01:21:30,479 --> 01:21:32,839
Speaker 1: I felt like we barely got to play a game. Yeah,

1839
01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:36,759
Speaker 1: and it was tough. It's so difficult. Yeah, it looks easy,

1840
01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:37,160
Speaker 1: I think.

1841
01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:39,599
Speaker 2: You know, if you have any sort of hand eye coordination,

1842
01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:40,599
Speaker 2: you're like, oh, this will be easy.

1843
01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:43,000
Speaker 1: It is not to get that weight right.

1844
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:45,760
Speaker 5: To get the weight right, to get the curves, and

1845
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:49,519
Speaker 5: then even simple things like when you're watching curling, these

1846
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:53,120
Speaker 5: curlers are just gliding on the ice one foot only

1847
01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:59,680
Speaker 5: slipping on their pads. Long push offsh.

1848
01:21:57,920 --> 01:22:00,800
Speaker 1: Did you fall? I don't remember. Pick a little tumble.

1849
01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:03,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, I wasn't moving quick enough to be falling, probably,

1850
01:22:04,200 --> 01:22:05,120
Speaker 5: But I would like to go.

1851
01:22:05,120 --> 01:22:06,559
Speaker 3: Back, super fun.

1852
01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:06,800
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1853
01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:08,160
Speaker 3: I can't believe they have him here in Atlanta.

1854
01:22:08,160 --> 01:22:10,120
Speaker 1: Man, Yeah, yeah, yeah it was. It was here. It

01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:24,639
Speaker 7: Never very good, never again.

1862
01:22:25,200 --> 01:22:26,640
Speaker 1: Well how old are the kids?

1863
01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:28,320
Speaker 6: Too young? Probably too young?

1864
01:22:28,479 --> 01:22:28,880

1865
01:22:28,960 --> 01:22:31,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, it was so much work, right, you know, and

1866
01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:34,439
Speaker 7: a pissed down rain. And then after that, like people

1867
01:22:34,479 --> 01:22:34,880
Speaker 7: were like.

1868
01:22:34,920 --> 01:22:36,800
Speaker 6: Man, I don't want to go. I'm like, I'm totally

1869
01:22:36,840 --> 01:22:37,800
Speaker 6: fine with just.

1870
01:22:37,760 --> 01:22:38,959
Speaker 1: A bad first experience.

1871
01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:42,679
Speaker 7: It was yeah, I mean it was fine, but it's

1872
01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:47,360
Speaker 7: just like, yeah, it's like a chore, so much, just

1873
01:22:47,400 --> 01:22:47,800
Speaker 7: a chore.

1874
01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:50,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but now you're like, you could have gone later,

1875
01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:51,719
Speaker 2: and like, yeah, boys are older, they could.

1876
01:22:51,560 --> 01:22:53,000
Speaker 3: Just do most of Yeah, exactly right.

1877
01:22:53,120 --> 01:22:57,000
Speaker 1: So I don't know. You can you can invite tasses

1878
01:22:57,040 --> 01:22:58,799
Speaker 1: electrician can help with the fire.

1879
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:00,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, he doesn't. Sounds incompetent.

1880
01:23:03,520 --> 01:23:09,679
Speaker 1: He's all looks listen, no steak, that's right, that's right, it's.

1881
01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:11,760
Speaker 3: Not an h. I didn't call the h back guy.

1882
01:23:12,040 --> 01:23:14,080
Speaker 2: Why didn't you call the h I guess it's a

1883
01:23:14,080 --> 01:23:20,960
Speaker 2: fair this you want to fixed, no problem, but I

1884
01:23:20,960 --> 01:23:22,360
Speaker 2: don't want that guy like Roger.

1885
01:23:23,880 --> 01:23:27,519
Speaker 4: I guess how much an HVAC guy would charge versus

1886
01:23:27,960 --> 01:23:30,519
Speaker 4: hot electrician guy just for his time.

1887
01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:32,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess it's twice as much. Maybe I

1888
01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:32,880
Speaker 1: don't know.

1889
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:35,880
Speaker 3: I don't know, probably three times as much. It's way more. Yeah,

1890
01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:38,080
Speaker 3: but a problem.

1891
01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:42,400
Speaker 1: But at least I gave one hundred and fifty dollars

1892
01:23:42,439 --> 01:23:43,960
Speaker 1: to a hot guy. Exactly.

1893
01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:47,680
Speaker 4: It was a hondo, just an well, I guess he

1894
01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:54,520
Speaker 4: just said the other fifty.

1895
01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:58,200
Speaker 1: What a story. That's rapid fire not so.

1896
01:23:58,280 --> 01:24:01,439
Speaker 2: Rapid, but uh, it was a classic, or help make

1897
01:24:01,479 --> 01:24:04,040
Speaker 2: a classic at least. Before we go, we have one

1898
01:24:04,240 --> 01:24:07,200
Speaker 2: founding member to shout out a late.

1899
01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:09,720
Speaker 1: Addition to the team. We found him, but he's on

1900
01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:10,360
Speaker 1: the squad.

1901
01:24:10,439 --> 01:24:18,360
Speaker 2: Nonetheless, let's give it up for Jason by substack founding

1902
01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:21,160
Speaker 2: member never too late to become one guy's link in

1903
01:24:21,240 --> 01:24:24,320
Speaker 2: the show notes to either be a founding member or

1904
01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:27,160
Speaker 2: to just be a paid subscriber or just a few

1905
01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:30,560
Speaker 2: free subscriber if you want as well. But paid subscribers

1906
01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:33,760
Speaker 2: get ad free episodes of this very show email to

1907
01:24:33,800 --> 01:24:35,960
Speaker 2: them every day. So that's a big perk right there,

1908
01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:42,920
Speaker 2: for five dollars a month in my opinion, Yeah, yeah,

1909
01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:46,000
Speaker 2: I agree, that's a great person. It's a pretty pretty

1910
01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:48,240
Speaker 2: good deal. I mean, would you rather give one hundred

1911
01:24:48,240 --> 01:24:50,960
Speaker 2: dollars to a hot electrician that can't fix anything or.

1912
01:24:57,680 --> 01:25:00,679
Speaker 1: You gotta get in there to fix something. The cameras

1913
01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:03,760
Speaker 1: the flickered yesterday during a show at some point, I

1914
01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:04,040
Speaker 1: don't know.

1915
01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:06,080
Speaker 3: If I just hit up for our guy, he'll be

1916
01:25:06,120 --> 01:25:07,120
Speaker 3: back here.

1917
01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:11,160
Speaker 1: He'll be here in here, just keep the cameras roll. Whatever.

Speaker 2: judge in the dunk contest and we had that scoop.

1957
01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:54,960
Speaker 1: Do you hear me? Chauan's we had that. We sat

1958
01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:59,040
Speaker 1: on that because we respected our guy bones and said

1959
01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:03,400
Speaker 1: don't tell it. We said we got you bones, and

1960
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:07,080

Speaker 2: The judges other than Brent DOMINIQ Quilkins, Brent, Barry johna

1963
01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:21,400
Speaker 2: blank on the other ones, they're pretty good names. I

1964
01:27:21,439 --> 01:27:23,599
Speaker 2: think they're like legends of the maybe.

1965
01:27:23,520 --> 01:27:26,200
Speaker 1: Dwight Howard, Nate Robbins. So no, there go, there go.

1966
01:27:26,280 --> 01:27:28,360

1967
01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:31,240
Speaker 1: have a fifth that you can actually vote on. I

1968
01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:37,360
Speaker 1: saw either Drew Ski, Jesser and sorry one other.

1969
01:27:38,280 --> 01:27:41,680

1974
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:51,880
Speaker 2: that's like a representative of the fan vote. I think

1975
01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:54,240
Speaker 2: I think that's all they do. I don't think they

1976
01:27:54,320 --> 01:27:59,360
Speaker 2: actually vote. They're just there as a representative for all right.

1977
01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:01,679
Speaker 1: I don't know who won the vote. But I'm saying

1978
01:28:01,720 --> 01:28:03,479
Speaker 1: you could literally vote on which of those.

1979
01:28:03,439 --> 01:28:06,000
