Speaker 2: some more NBA Top Shot podcast, like down the line,

82
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 2: like well, you know, that was just like that was

83
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 2: just spur of the moment. Trey was opening a pack

84
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 2: because he had one, and we were like, who'd you get?

85
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 2: Who was the big pole last night? Was the big pole?

86
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 2: Spencer Bitcoin, din Wit him knee. I don't know if

87
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 2: you're getting a blockchain adjacent player in a blockchain game.

88
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 2: I think it must mean something.

89
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 7: True, true, true, but confusing. Well, yeah, it looked good.

90
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 7: It really looked good. While you're opening though, the visuals

91
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 7: looked fun, so I was kind of into it. And

92
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 7: then I saw Jordan Clarkson dunk from a couple of

93
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 7: years ago. What yeah, I mean you're training at Jordan Clarkson.

94
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 7: I can't wait to find out more about it.

95
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

96
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 4: Oh, Jordan Clarkson, the sixth Man of the Year, the

97
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 4: leading candidate, obviously the choice. The man will probab be

98
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,839
Speaker 4: the first unanimous six Man of the Year in NBA history.

99
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 2: I don't know.

100
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 4: I'm a completely unbiased observer here, but I would say

101
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 4: that Jordan Clarkson has been the man for the Jazz absolutely.

102
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 7: But his dunk from twenty nineteen is that valuable? I

103
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 7: don't know. Does it go up because he won an

104
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 7: award two years later?

105
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 2: Well, that's what Trey's trying to do. He's trying to

106
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 2: tell that price up. Yeah Clarkson here. Yeah, but we

107
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: might like reach out to people at NBA Top Shot

108
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 2: and like actually really try and figure out what's going

109
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 2: on and do maybe a better job than we did

110
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 2: have explaining it. Last night. I don't know. I gotta

Speaker 2: do here, and we get a weird one here. We've

122
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 2: been talking a lot about big beef with rebounds, and

123
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 2: then people were saying, well what about twenty assists? What's

124
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 2: that is that Apple sauce? Were like, sure, why not?

00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 2: put some roast beef and some apple sauce together and

00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 2: have the are you likely yellows? Do you have like

129
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 2: just things right by you that you can just grab

130
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 2: and put them in the screen.

131
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 7: Well, I have some items. Okay, I've got my apple

132
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 7: sauce here. It's in a squeeze it's in a little

133
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 7: squeeze pack because it's meant for a child's ready to go.

134
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 7: Now my Rby's roast beef it's on the way. It

135
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 7: should be here momentarily, like within a few minutes. You see.

136
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 7: That's a If you're on YouTube, you're seeing a photo

137
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 7: from my wife Danielle, who was first in line at

138
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 7: Arby's this morning at ten am.

139
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

140
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 7: Now I had to make a decision. First, they open

141
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 7: at ten am. We started our show here ten am Eastern.

142
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 7: I was gonna get one from last night. I couldn't

143
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 7: do that, couldn't do that to my intestine. So made

144
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 7: a change, made the move to get one fresh. It

145
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 7: opens at ten am and people are just piling on

146
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 7: the beef at ten am. I know Arby's is a

147
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 7: solid sandwich.

148
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 4: You know.

149
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 7: I got excited for it yesterday. Actually, I watched a

150
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 7: quick video from Justin Sutherland, who's a Fast Foodies guy.

151
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 7: He's one top chef before and he actually he does

152
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 7: a double order at Arby's. He gets a roast beef

153
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 7: sandwich and then gets a market fresh sandwich, which I

154
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 7: like to get too. I like the market fresh sandwich.

155
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 7: You know, it's one of those deli sandwiches. Although you

156
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 7: call it market fresh, it's kind of weird. What's the

157
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 7: rest of your menu not fresh? Anyway, I'm looking forward

158
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 7: to the beef being delivered here momentarily from al and

159
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 7: I'll throw the apple sauce on it.

160
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 6: Yeah.

161
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 2: I couldn't.

162
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 7: I couldn't do a twelve hour bea.

163
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 2: I just couldn't smart move. So this is incredible, Danielle.

164
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 2: You know, within the next ten to fifteen minutes hopefully

165
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 2: is going to arrive hand you an Arby's roast beef

166
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 2: sandwich live on the show here, and then you're gonna

167
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 2: throw the apple sauce on it. Yes, and chowed out. Okay, well,

168
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 2: I'm with.

169
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 4: Jubes Mason Junior in the stream team who says, I

170
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 4: think I believe in true love again.

171
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 2: It's very nice of Danielle.

172
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, delivery beef. That's incredible stuff.

173
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 7: Although you know Trey has been supporting these big beef performances,

174
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 7: so she she's already texted me and she said, I'm

175
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 7: sorry ahead of time, I got you a half pound

176
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,719
Speaker 7: roast beef sandwich. Oh, because it's been so it's been

177
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 7: talked about so much. There's regular double meat or half pound,

178
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 7: and since Trey has been talking about the meats, she

179
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 7: went for it. And I haven't eaten a thing today.

180
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 7: I've starved myself for this moment. Wow, we're going down

181
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 7: and here it is.

182
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Arby's knitting.

183
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 7: Arby's is never going to sponsor the show because they

184
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 7: get all this free pressed.

185
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 4: Yah.

186
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 2: I know this is ridiculous, you know, but anyway, let's

187
00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 2: do it.

188
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 7: Curly fries, Thank you, Daniel. Oh nice morning fries.

189
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 2: Okay, So apple sauce is going on this thing.

190
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, you guys, you know you guys start talking.

191
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 7: I'll get this thing dressed.

192
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, yeah, box and beef let's sauce. All right,

193
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 2: Apple sauce on a roast beef sandwich. I mean I

194
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 2: almost just say eating Arby's at ten am is a.

195
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 7: Pickup, absolutely, but they don't do breakfast anyway.

196
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 2: Go ahead, okay, yeah, let's get into the All Star

197
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 2: first returns while Task makes his sandwich. Here we have

198
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 2: the first round of fan voting for this year's NBA

199
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 2: All Start Game. We're gonna start out west where Lebron

200
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: James is on top for all the frontcourt players will

201
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 2: also leading the conference there in votes. Other forwards currently

202
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 2: the Joker, Yo Kitchen, second Kawhi and third Steph Curry

203
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 2: returns to the top spot for the guards after being

204
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 2: sidelined of course last season with the broken hand. He

205
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,959
Speaker 2: sits pretty comfortably ahead there of Luka Doncic, who is

206
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 2: pretty comfortably ahead of Damian Lillard in third. So it'd

207
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 2: be Lebron, the Joker, Kawhi, Curry, and Luca and we

208
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 2: are showing the top ten for the front court and

209
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 2: the guards from the West. First returns for anybody on

210
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 2: the stream team right now, So a few questions from

211
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 2: this and we'll get to the East. Biggest surprise Trey

212
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 2: from what we just saw there, where do you want

213
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 2: to go?

214
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 5: Well?

215
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 4: For me, the starters are perfect in the Western conference

216
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 4: as is right now, I have the same as my starters.

217
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 4: It looks like they're probably going to be locks, just

218
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 4: based on where the votes are and the totals. For

219
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 4: the people who are sitting just outside of the two

220
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 4: or the three. There might be a little bit of

221
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 4: a challenge there between Anthony Davis and Kawhi Leonard. I

222
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 4: think AD's like, what, one hundred thousand votes behind, Maybe

223
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 4: he can make that up.

224
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 2: But for the most part, these starters are perfect.

225
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 4: The biggest surprise to me, though, is in the Guard voting,

226
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 4: in particular John Morant at number four. For me, any

227
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 4: two of Steph Curry, Luka, Doncic, Damian Lillard, and Donovan Mitchell,

228
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,319
Speaker 4: any two of those four would be the starters in

229
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 4: the All Star Game. And I could be happy with

230
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 4: that because I think that all four of those guys

231
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 4: have put together All Star seasons so far. But when

232
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 4: you look at Jaw compared to Donovan Mitchell particularly, that's

233
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 4: the surprising thing to me. The Jazz are coming off

234
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 4: a huge win streak. They've been one of the best

235
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 4: teams in the in the league this year. Donovan Mitchell

236
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 4: obviously has previously been an All Star, He's won a

237
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 4: Dunk Contest. He's probably the most mainstream Jazz Man out there.

238
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 4: Whereas Memphis they're nine and eight, they're in a tiny market.

239
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 4: Jaws only played nine games, but I think this bodes

240
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 4: very well for Jazz chance to start an All Star

241
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 4: Game at some time in this career. If he's able

242
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 4: to be number four right now playing for a small

243
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 4: market team in a season where he hasn't had a

244
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 4: whole bunch of time on the court, hasn't had a

245
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 4: chance to pile up those highlights like we see.

246
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 2: Pretty cool stuff.

247
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 4: So yeah, I was a little surprised to see Ja

248
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 4: ahead Donovan Mitchell. I would obviously have Mitchell higher, but

249
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 4: a pleasant surprise.

250
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 2: I would say, yeah, yeah, Lee, Do you is there

251
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 2: anything that surprised you from these again first returns? Just

252
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 2: the fans here for the West.

253
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, not to go into the start is there,

254
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 3: but Christian Wood from the Houston Rockets is number eight

255
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 3: and Rudy Gobert is not in the top ten. I mean,

256
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 3: that's incredible. Rudy Gobert was an All Star last season.

257
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 3: The Jazz have had an incredible start to the season

258
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 3: to this point, and Christian Wood has been very good

259
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 3: down there in Houston, But the Rockets have been a

260
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 3: bit of an afterthought. They had the James Harden sort

261
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 3: of controversy to start the season, and now since he's

262
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 3: been traded, they've actually been playing pretty well, but they

263
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 3: just feel like they're off the radar, and it's very

264
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 3: sort of unusual to see a guy like Christian would

265
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: have that sort of an impact with the fans already,

266
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 3: even though he's been you know, heating threes and blocking

267
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 3: shots and doing lots of things. I'm just really surprised

268
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 3: to see him, especially he's number eight ahead of Brandon Ingram,

269
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 3: who was also an All Star last season. He's been

270
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 3: very good for the Pelicans, and I sort of expect Ingram.

271
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,599
Speaker 3: I don't know if I get Ingram and Zion in

272
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 3: the in the All Star Game, probably not, just because

273
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 3: of their record, but I thought he's been great. So

274
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 3: it's a very unusual thing to think for me to

275
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 3: see Christian would at number eight in the West front court.

276
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, it's very high. Tasks got to go to

277
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 2: you got to know, you know, the update on the

278
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 2: sandwich here and what you also think of these the

279
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 2: first returns here in the West.

280
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 7: Well, I do get up early along with JD.

281
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 2: I can't.

282
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 7: Oh, that's my fault.

283
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:06,839
Speaker 2: He's got too much.

284
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 7: That's my fault. That's I muted myself so you guys

285
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 7: didn't have to hear all my strundling. So I've unmuted myself.

286
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 7: I get up up. I got up pretty early with

287
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 7: JD in the morning to produce what you need to know.

288
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 7: So I'm hungry because I've starved myself since five am.

289
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 7: So this half beef, half half pound of beef, it's quite.

290
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 7: It's going down. The apple sauce is quite. The nice

291
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 7: sauce on.

292
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 2: It, I don't mind.

293
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a little skeets move, got this little sweetness

294
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 7: on his salty. So we're doing all right. This is

295
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 7: gonna be my only meal of the day. I'm pretty

296
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 7: sure it started off pretty well.

297
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 2: Roast beef.

298
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 7: Uh yeah, Wiggans and Wood at the seven and eight spot.

299
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 7: Surprising for me, both those guys, Andrew Wigans the seventh highest.

300
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 7: I know you get that Warriors bump, but that's a

301
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 7: little surprising. And to see Christian a guy, yeah released

302
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,439
Speaker 7: twice in the last couple of years, and all of

303
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 7: a sudden a starter on the rockets. It's sort of

304
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 7: like that John Morant thing that Trey was talking about

305
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 7: at number four. For John Morant, it's great to see

306
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 7: a small market guy be up that high. And I

307
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 7: think we get to the east. Bradley Beal is sort

308
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 7: of similar, guys that you wouldn't think are going to

309
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 7: be up there, and votes Christian Wood is the same

310
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 7: are doing well because they're having good seasons. Even though

311
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 7: John Moran hasn't played a lot of Christian Wood's twenty

312
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 7: two to ten, I think that kind of flies under

313
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 7: the rail. His numbers are incredible and hopefully he'll be

314
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 7: all right from that ankle injury he sustained last night

315
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 7: while you guys were, uh, you guys were watching hardcore basketball.

316
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 7: So yeah, that that combo. There's just a lot of

317
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 7: guys that are up there that you wouldn't expect, and

318
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 7: I wouldn't expect so many votes as well. Just overall,

319
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 7: seeing this from Shamsharanja said, the NBA All Star fan

320
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 7: voting so far as up seventy percent compared to last year,

321
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 7: I just wouldn't say that's a lot.

322
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 2: Why what else? What else are we doing? Yeah?

323
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 7: Right, right, But all the talk last year about not

324
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 7: having great ratings and just to see like seventy percent,

325
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 7: what NBA is more popular than ever before, that's that's

326
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 7: come on, That's that's weird. But yeah, maybe maybe fans

327
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 7: are just getting used to voting, yeah, because it has

328
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 7: been a little bit complicated the last couple of years,

329
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 7: so now they're into this new format.

330
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 2: I don't know, do you think were you shock tray

331
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 2: that Zion is at sixth in the West, Like? Is

332
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 2: that like low? I actually thought he might be higher.

333
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 2: Is it high or low?

334
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 4: I don't know's It's really tough for me to say,

335
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 4: because when you look at the players that are ahead

336
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 4: of him, it's four guys from LA and Nikola Jokic,

337
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 4: who is an MVP candidate. So yeah, I mean, I

338
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 4: don't know. Let's compare totals here. He's got four hundred

339
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 4: and eleven thousand votes. Next rookie sort of or not rookie,

340
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 4: but guy who's really in the mix as well, John

341
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 4: Morant two hundred and fifty seven thousand votes. So yeah,

342
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 4: I mean, he's got more votes than Jimmy Butler. He's

343
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 4: got more votes Trey Young. I think it's just a

344
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 4: case of he's behind a lot of big market guys

345
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 4: and name players in the Western Conference. But I'm not

346
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 4: surprised to see him ahead a brandon Ingram. I think

347
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 4: it's only a matter of time before Zion's starting an

348
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 4: All Star game.

349
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 2: That's probably true. All right, So while this omission in

350
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 2: the Western Conference, Lee, you sort of already gave your answer.

351
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 2: It's Rudy Gobert to you, like, it's like he's not

352
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 2: even in the top ten. Is that most shocking or

353
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 2: do you want to make a case for your boy

354
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 2: Mike Conley because people are umping arms store Mike Conley

355
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 2: not being in the All Star discussion.

356
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 3: It would be pretty ironic if Mike Conley couldn't make

357
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 3: it as a gritten, grind, grizzly and this is sort

358
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 3: of second phase of his career. He's able to make

359
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 3: it with the Utah Jazz. I mean, they deserve two

360
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 3: All Stars based on their record and the way they've

361
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 3: been playing. I think Mitchell's the absolute locke. And who

362
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 3: is that second one? I mean, I think it has

363
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 3: to be Rudy Gobert. Conley will be in the conversation,

364
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 3: but he'll just miss out again in that western backcourt.

365
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 3: He's not going to overtake some of those guys that

366
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 3: we've seen, you know, like someone like Lillard who won't start.

367
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 3: He will be voted in by the coaches, of course,

368
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 3: you know. I mean, then Mitchell's up against someone like

369
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 3: a Devin Booker, you know, I think based on the

370
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 3: record and book has been a little bit in and

371
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 3: out of the lineup and the Sun started off hot

372
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 3: but cooled off a little bit, so he's probably ahead

373
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 3: of him. But I think the Jazz, you know Rudy Gobert,

374
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 3: he's the sort of guy who feels disrespected. He's talked

375
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 3: about that a lot, you know, being snubbed for awards,

376
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 3: being snubbed for the All Star Game twice before he

377
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 3: finally made it last season. So I think if he

378
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 3: doesn't get in, and he looks at these voting returns early,

379
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 3: he's like, people just don't respect what he brings to

380
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 3: the team and brings to the game. But I think,

381
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 3: like I say, I think he probably does get the vote.

382
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 3: Their coaches vote anyway, so I think he'll be fine.

383
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 3: He's never going to be a starter because he's just

384
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 3: not that popular, but I think the coaches respect his

385
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 3: game and what he brings to the Jazz.

386
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 2: Trey, is there a crazy omission in the Western Conference

387
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 2: to you that you're like, WHOA, I can't believe that

388
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:53,400
Speaker 2: guy's not there.

389
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 4: I don't know if about it crazy emission skeets, but

390
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 4: I did love to see Shay Gilders Alexander making the

391
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 4: top ten there at number I mean, obviously we've got

392
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 4: our bet for if he's going to be an All Star.

393
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,439
Speaker 4: This I think bodes well for him at least being

394
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 4: an All Star next year. And as you know, I've

395
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 4: invested in the Shay top shots, so I'm loving seeing.

396
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 2: Him on there.

397
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 4: The prices are going up, but I mean he's still

398
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 4: under one hundred thousand votes, which isn't very much, but

399
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 4: it's always nice to see your guys showing up in

400
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 4: the top tens. Who's somebody that missed out that you

401
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,919
Speaker 4: would expect? I guess it's gotta be Conley and Gobert,

402
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 4: just because the jazz have been so good.

403
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe dearon Fox too, just with what he's doing.

404
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, recently, just not to be in there task.

405
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 2: Is there anyone we're missing? As you really yeah, you're

406
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 2: really taken down. You seem to be really enjoying that

407
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 2: nice purpy sandwich.

408
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, thanks for noticing. I'm pretty happy. And it made

409
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 7: the decision not to get an old Arby sandwich from

410
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 7: last night. Yeah, I'm enjoying this.

411
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,640
Speaker 2: That is a lot of meat. It is they got

412
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:49,920
Speaker 2: the meats I heard, but man.

413
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure someone's even falling off as I eat it.

414
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,199
Speaker 7: That's for sure, it's gonna be a messy clean up

415
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 7: a little bit later. I think you guys got them all.

416
00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 7: You got them all.

417
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 2: Okay, well let's go to the Eastern car conference.

418
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 7: JD.

419
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 2: Throw it up, my man, Kevin Durant. He actually leads

420
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 2: all vote getters in the league. Yeah, more votes than Lebron,

421
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 2: with fellow Nets teammates Kyrie Irving and James Harden taking

422
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 2: the number two and three spots in the East backcourt respectively.

423
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 2: There behind Wizard star Bradley Beal. Yeah, Lee's been working

424
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 2: those Twitter votes, apparently, joining Katie in the front court.

425
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 2: Currently first returns Jannis and Joelle Embiid with over one

426
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 2: point five million votes each. Lot of votes here for

427
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 2: those three guys in the front court in the East,

428
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 2: Kadianness and Embiid and then yeah, Bradley Beal leading all

429
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 2: guards with Kyrie in second. So same question as I

430
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 2: asked with the West task get it started. Biggest surprise

431
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 2: from seeing all of these numbers here, where are you going?

432
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 7: It's right there, it's Bradley Beal at the top of

433
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 7: the guards list. That's a shocker to me. It's the

434
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 7: biggest shocker after looking at these early returns other than

435
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,360
Speaker 7: the fact that we're having an All Star game. That's

436
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 7: a shocker, but we'll get to that a little bit

437
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 7: later in WORSA the Week. Bradley Beal, the most popular

438
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 7: guard in the East is just put me off my

439
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 7: chair yesterday when I saw it because he was He's

440
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 7: just never all that high. He was eighth last year,

441
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 7: he was seventh the year before that, he was fifth

442
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 7: the year before that, and tenth the year before that.

443
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 7: I think the circumstances just played out perfectly for him

444
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 7: because it started when Kyrie Irving. Voting started when Kyrie

445
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 7: Irving was just kind of coming back from those couple

446
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 7: of weeks off, so he dropped a little bit. James

447
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 7: Harden spent time in the West, he came over and

448
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 7: maybe not looked at it as a starter. So they're

449
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 7: pretty close if you look at those numbers. Their vote

450
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 7: totals won two three, but they're all behind the top

451
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 7: three forwards in the Eastern Conference. So yes, Bradley Beal

452
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 7: is number one, but he's less popular than three forwards

453
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 7: in the starters in terms of Eastern Conference voting. So

454
00:20:52,960 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 7: this is difficulty. Oh yeah, I'm quite gaseous anyway, yeah,

455
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 7: it's in line with my thinking though. When I made

456
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 7: my selections for All Star starters, I made them just

457
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 7: in terms of the way in order of my thinking

458
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,640
Speaker 7: about them. Who am I thinking of as an Eastern

459
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 7: Conference All Star starter? Well, Bradley Beal is my first guard,

460
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 7: so that lines up with me and and I think

461
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 7: that's what people are doing too when they're when they're

462
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 7: looking at their ballots. I guess I'm a fan. I

463
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 7: guess I really am not much of an analyst. I'm

464
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 7: just a fan. But Bradley Beal at thirty five PPG,

465
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 7: this could be the time, especially you know with the

466
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 7: way that the voting breaks down the way, Yeah, the

467
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 7: media has to vote and the players have to vote

468
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 7: as well. Uh, it's going to be hard to knock

469
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 7: him out. I think I think he's just he's looked

470
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 7: at by everybody as such a great score. And then

471
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 7: you have those other scenarios with Kyrie and James Harden

472
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 7: that Kyrie wasn't playing James Harredy coming from the east,

473
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 7: so I Eric from the West. So I think I

474
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 7: think he's going to get in there. I think he's

475
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 7: going to be a starter. When all of a sudden

476
00:21:59,119 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 7: done well.

477
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 2: Debating it last week right on the Drop podcast Tray,

478
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 2: we were talking about is it bal or Trey Young?

479
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 2: You know, was what we were doing well. We all

480
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 2: had Galen Brown as our starter in the East in

481
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 2: the back court, and then we were trying to debate

482
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 2: who gets it and we had this discussion. We were like,

483
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 2: I said it right, I was like, who's going to

484
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 2: get more votes between these guys? Like, where's the popularity

485
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 2: for bial or Trey Young? We got a ton of

486
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 2: votes last year. I mean, Bill has almost a million

487
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 2: more votes than Trey Young. That's shocking too.

488
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was the shocking thing to me seeing the

489
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,959
Speaker 4: difference in votes between Bale and Trey Young. Considering that

490
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 4: Trey Young led the East Guards in voting last year

491
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,439
Speaker 4: every single result, you know, like first, second, third, returns,

492
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 4: and then obviously the game. The guy led in voting

493
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 4: last year. So to see him dropped to six, I

494
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 4: thought was surprising because it's been a little bit of

495
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 4: an up and down season. I guess for Trey Young,

496
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 4: you know, he came out of the gate really hot,

497
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 4: shooting a bunch of free throws.

498
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:51,360
Speaker 2: Struggled for a little bit, but.

499
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 4: He's up to twenty six a game, shooting forty two

500
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 4: percent from the field thirty six from three and obviously

501
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 4: the Hawks are better this year than they were last year. Yeah,

502
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 4: so I don't think Trey Young is really gotten worse.

503
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 4: He had a couple off weeks where he wasn't balling

504
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 4: to the full potential that he has. But uh, I

505
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 4: thought it would be a lot closer between these two.

506
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not surprised to see guys from bigger

507
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 4: markets show up ahead of Trey Young. Like, it's not

508
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 4: super surprising to me that Zach Levine would get more

509
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 4: votes just because he's a Chicago but guy versus a Hawk.

510
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 4: But to see the blowout from Bale to Trey Young

511
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 4: is a little bit of a shocker.

512
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 2: So so Lee, What's I mean, what's your secret man?

513
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,360
Speaker 2: Just really hitting those double vote days on Twitter for Bill?

514
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 3: I guess there's a bit of a sympathy vote out

515
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 3: there for bal that he's putting up these huge numbers,

516
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 3: you know, and but his team is struggling badly, and

517
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 3: people are like, well, Bill, is you know, more than

518
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 3: just a guy putting up huge numbers on a terrible team.

519
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 3: He's He's a legit star so, but being in that

520
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 3: Washington market, you know, you need all the help you

521
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 3: can get because it's just it's an overlooked market. That's

522
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 3: I think that has cost Bale in the past. I

523
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 3: think that's why it took him so long to even

524
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 3: make the All Star Game, because he was on the periphery.

525
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 3: But people don't see Washington is a big, sexy market

526
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 3: like a Chicago that seems to always get votes just

527
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 3: because it's the Bulls. So yeah, this is if this

528
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 3: does whole, this will be remarkable for Bill to be

529
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 3: the top vote getter for the back court. It could,

530
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 3: I mean, it could swing and we I mean it's

531
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 3: possible we could have three Nets starting the All Star

532
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,880
Speaker 3: team as well. It's possible if hard Oh.

533
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 2: I think I think it's actually likely. I think Harden

534
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 2: and Kyrie are both over tick Bill. Yeah, and the

535
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:27,360
Speaker 2: next time we do this, yeah.

536
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that that could happen. So that would

537
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 3: be weird. I mean the Nets, you know, like their

538
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 3: record isn't isn't great? I mean they what are they

539
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 3: right now? People don't care, no, I know, but the

540
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,880
Speaker 3: favorite players, Yeah, they're fourteen to nine. Actually they're better.

541
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 3: They because they felt like they were close to five hundred,

542
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 3: but they've gone on a bit of a bit of

543
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 3: win streak here.

544
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 2: But James, here's the question. Do the coaches pick Bill

545
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 2: if he doesn't make it as a starter. Yes, and

546
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 2: the Wizards are brutal, let's.

547
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 3: Say yes, I think yeah, yeah, Bill gets in. I

548
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 3: think he's in no matter what. Yeah, for sure. But

549
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 3: just like with James Harden for example, you know, his

550
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 3: his reputation at the early part of the season wasn't good.

551
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 3: That hasn't really affect to him though in terms of

552
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 3: garnering votes, because since he's been to Brooklyn, he's been

553
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 3: very good. He's looked engaged at teams and winning. He's

554
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 3: put up triple doubles. So you know, any sort of

555
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,640
Speaker 3: ground that he may have lost, he's made up very

556
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 3: very quickly there. So you know, because I talked about

557
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:14,880
Speaker 3: it last week, I said, you know, I'm not sure

558
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 3: they get three three players in Loost like and I'm

559
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 3: not sure they're deserving. But looking at it now, it's like, well,

560
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,719
Speaker 3: they're definitely going to get one starter for sure, and

561
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 3: then the other guy is probably going to get voted

562
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 3: in any way well or chosen by the coaches anyway,

563
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 3: so they probably will get three even if their record

564
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 3: isn't the best in the East.

565
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's right. If Durant somehow maintains his

566
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 2: number one status overall here, he would obviously unseat Lebron,

567
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 2: who's been the overall vote leader for five consecutive seasons,

568
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 2: which is pretty crazy seven years overall, I think for Lebron,

569
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 2: dating back to oh seven, Durant's been an ulster like

570
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 2: ten times, but he's never garnered the most votes, So

571
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 2: I think I think it's a little something to watch

572
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 2: if you care about that. A little fascinating to me

573
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 2: while this omission though, in the Eastern Conference, let's go

574
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 2: to you Lee, which you know you see the the

575
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 2: twenty nams is what we're given. Who can't you believe

576
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 2: is not there?

577
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 3: Well, Chris Middleton has been a two time All Star

578
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 3: and he's having a better season this season than he's

579
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 3: had those other two seasons. And the Bucks are second

580
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 3: in the East. They got off to a pretty hot start.

581
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 3: They've cooled down a little bit, but I think that's

582
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 3: also reflective of Chris Middleton's game. It's not a sexy game.

583
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 3: It's an old style game. It's a mid range game

584
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 3: that people just overlook. You know, Yannis is the one

585
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 3: who gets all the attention in Milwaukee, and rightfully, so

586
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 3: Yannis is going to be your starter in this All

587
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 3: Star Game. But the fact that Middleton didn't even get

588
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 3: more votes than Jeremy Grant, who's been good for the Pistons,

589
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 3: but it's on the Pistons and as Jeremy Grant is

590
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,439
Speaker 3: shocking to me. You know again, you usually guys, you know,

591
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,679
Speaker 3: we talk about how often they're a season behind. You know,

592
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 3: so Middleton could have had a great season one year,

593
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 3: doesn't get the recognition until the following season. But when

594
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 3: you've been a two time All Star and you're having

595
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 3: a better season than those All Star seasons, I mean,

596
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 3: it's his numbers are close, but I think, to me,

597
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 3: this is the best season that he's put together. I'm

598
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,879
Speaker 3: shocked that he's overlooked to that extent. Anyway. I mean,

599
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 3: Jeremy Grant, like I say, playing well, earning that contract,

600
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 3: but it's the Pistons and they stink. And I just

601
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 3: can't see how many people are really watching Pistons games

602
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 3: and highlights to give Jeremy Grant that bump over someone

603
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 3: who's you know, he's an All Star player and he's

604
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 3: a respected player, even if he doesn't have the most

605
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 3: athletic and highlight real plays in Chris Middleton.

606
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 2: Okay, what do you got tasks? Is there? You know

607
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 2: a name that you're a little shocked, isn't there? Well?

608
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 7: I was happy to see Jeremy Grant there though, amongst

609
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,880
Speaker 7: those top ten, just because he is having a career year.

610
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 7: He's having a really good season. But yeah, it definitely

611
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 7: plays into the market situation. The Bucks just aren't the

612
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 7: tops when it comes to headlines and all that, and

613
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 7: it goes back to last year, it goes back to

614
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 7: the year before that. Yeah, Yannis is voted in the

615
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 7: end by people who are you know, appreciate the game

616
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,679
Speaker 7: and watch the game. They vote him as MVP, But

617
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 7: when it comes to headlines weekend week out, they're overlooked.

618
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 7: There's no doubt Chris Middleton's overlooked. But I'm happy that.

619
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 7: I'm happy Jermy Grant's having a great year in Detroit

620
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,119
Speaker 7: and some people are recognizing him for it. And I

621
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 7: guess he gets the Detroit bump. I guess I guess

622
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 7: where there's a little fatigue is that people will see

623
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 7: Giannis I'm voting for him, might not vote for Chris Middleton,

624
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 7: And even with the nets, you know, I'll vote for Durant,

625
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 7: So there's probably less votes for Harden and Kyrie Irving.

626
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 7: They might not just want to stack it.

627
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that happens. Yeah, what about U Trey?

628
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 2: Is there anybody you're shocked on there?

629
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 4: I don't know if I would say shocked, but Tobias

630
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 4: Harris not making the voting is a little bit of surprise.

631
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 4: He's having a great season, He's had a bunch of highlights,

632
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 4: and the Sixers have been good. But Ben Simmons is

633
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 4: tenth in voting amongst guards. So if we're already talking

634
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 4: about these guys like Chris Middleton, who has been an

635
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,959
Speaker 4: All Star, who's playing on alongside Giannis, who probably has

636
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 4: a bigger profile than anybody on the Sixers, it's not

637
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 4: super surprising that Tobias Harris.

638
00:28:57,880 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 2: Wouldn't make the list.

639
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 4: But I think it ends the dream of him being

640
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 4: an All Star, Like he could definitely make it as

641
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 4: a reserve pick by the coaches, but it doesn't seem

642
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 4: like he has a lot of buzz right now.

643
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's right. I'm actually shocked like any

644
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 2: other forward has a vote. I mean, I guess Tatum

645
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 2: is a forward, but like it should just be the

646
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 2: three guys at the top. I mean, everybody should be

647
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 2: voting for those three guys, Katie Embiid and Gyanness. I

648
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 2: have that in the wrong order, but you know what

649
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 2: I'm talking about there, Like, I mean, those are your

650
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 2: three front court starters. It's like a no brainer. But

651
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 2: you know some guys that are obviously warranting some votes.

652
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 2: You got the two Celtics guys. Jillen Brown is not

653
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 2: as high as I think some people maybe thought ley.

654
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 2: So we were high on him of course, thinking he

655
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 2: should start, and I think he'll be there ultimately, but

656
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 2: you know, not getting a huge huge amount of votes.

657
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 8: No.

658
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 3: I mean but when you again look who's ahead of him,

659
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 3: I think that's probably about fair just because of those

660
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 3: other guys that got more attention to Jalen Brown. As

661
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 3: great as he's been this season, you know, he's not

662
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 3: a loud player. You know, he's got some good highlights,

663
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 3: some nice dunks and things like that, but he's a quiet,

664
00:29:58,400 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 3: hard working sort of a guy. And I think that

665
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 3: that probably is where these other guys stand out a

666
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 3: little bit more like Beal's had some great highlights, Kyrie Irving,

667
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 3: you know, when he gets going, it's great, and of

668
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 3: course James Harden, you know, he lights up the highlight

669
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 3: reels as well. So I'm actually I'm glad to see

670
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 3: Jalen sort of on that is the leader of that

671
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 3: next level because I think he's been much better than

672
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 3: everyone else below him this season. I mean, you know,

673
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 3: Zack Lavine being in Chicago really helps him, and that's

674
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 3: the sort of thing like with Jeremy Grant. If Jeremy

675
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 3: Grant was doing this for the Bulls, I could understand

676
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 3: why he would have such a big bump because Chicago

677
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 3: historically just always has guys. Yeah, yeah, you know, but

678
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 3: Detroit's not quite the same like that. But yeah, Jalen Brown,

679
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 3: I think he's in any way. I think I think

680
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 3: just because of the season he's had, the coaches will

681
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 3: recognize it that he's taken a huge leap this season.

682
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 3: And I had him on the team last season and

683
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 3: it was kind of down to him and Tatum. Well,

684
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 3: Tatum is a lock for me, and I think Brown

685
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 3: will be too.

686
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 2: Okay, So the All Star starters here. They're determined again

687
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 2: by fifty percent of the fan vote and then media

688
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 2: vote twenty five percent and player vote twenty five percent.

689
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 2: They're announced on TNT on February eighteenth, that's right around

690
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 2: the corner that's coming up. The reserves, which are voted

691
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 2: on by the coaches, is announced soon after that February

692
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 2: twenty third. So we'll be talking about this as we

693
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 2: move forward and we get the returns. You you dipped

694
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 2: into the fries and the curly fries.

695
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 7: No, no, no, I'm using them to get the meat

696
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 7: out of my teeth. Oh wow, because there's a lot

697
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 7: of meat. I'm not having fries this morning.

698
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 2: What no breakfast potato?

699
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 7: Huh that's yeah nice. No, I've got to have a code.

700
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 7: And it wasn't part of the pick and payoff there

701
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 7: here and are you.

702
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 2: Done the sandwich being used?

703
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 3: No?

704
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 2: Oh okay, I thought, yeah.

705
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 7: I know we lack our long pods here. I got

706
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 7: three quarters through.

707
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 3: It has been a sort of big, a one season

708
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 3: drop off than Pascal in your mind, I mean.

709
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,239
Speaker 2: I know, even in sight here.

710
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can bring the Pascal started last season, you know,

711
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 3: a drop off. Yeah, he's not going to even make

712
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 3: the team this season. I mean, he doesn't deserve it,

713
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 3: but it's quite quite the chine really for him.

714
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that's a great point. I don't think I've

715
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 2: said before, I don't think any Raps are going to

716
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 2: actually get in there. I don't think Lowry will, I

717
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 2: don't think family will definitely not sack him the way

718
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 2: he's played. Uh, you know, I could talk up og

719
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: if you want me to. You want to talk to

720
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 2: og Ah? What's you up to, Isaac?

721
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 4: It's been a long time though that the Raptors haven't

722
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 4: had an All Star, right, Lowery and de Ros that's

723
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 4: a long time ago at this point.

724
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, for sure. All right, let's get to worst

725
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 2: of the week. But before we do, quick word from

726
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 2: our sponsors. Okay, let's get too worst of the week,

727
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen.

728
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 6: The worst of the week.

729
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 7: What do you got tasting to me? Well, we've got

730
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 7: to start it off with the NBA. This is absolutely

731
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 7: incredible that we're having an All Star Game. It'll be

732
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 7: announced next week, all the details and all that, but

733
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 7: it's gonna happen on March seventh. And when I went

734
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 7: to the tweets and asked you people, what you think

735
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 7: should be Worse of the Week. We had a lot

736
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 7: We had a lot of people saying it should be

737
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 7: the NBA. Vikash Gaya wrote, did you do the All

738
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 7: Star Game yet? Because it's going to happen. Everybody is

739
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 7: going to be up in arms when they realize that

740
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 7: there's gonna be an All Star game played period and

741
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 7: it's already starting. You heard Lebron James last night say

742
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 7: he has zero interest, zero energy. He'll be there physically,

743
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 7: but he won't be there mentally.

744
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 6: This is bad.

745
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 2: I mean, that's not like like I mean, we're gonna

746
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 2: make some jokes about it, for sure, of course that's

747
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 2: what we do. But I couldn't believe this, I'll be honest, Like,

748
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 2: it's one thing for Darren Fox to say it's like stupid,

749
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 2: Like it's like, okay, Fox is like on the come up. Yeah,

750
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 2: maybe he's in the All Star conversation Lebron James literally

751
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,239
Speaker 2: coming out and saying this is dumb. Why are we

752
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 2: doing this? And I don't want to do it? He

753
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 2: called it kind of a slap in the face. Crazy task. Yeah,

754
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 2: I'm a I'm are you one hundred percent convinced this

755
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 2: game still happens? After Lebron says.

756
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 7: That yes, I'm convinced because I think he's been talked to.

757
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 7: I think he's said the Players Association has gone to

758
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 7: a bunch of their players and said, hey, this is happening.

759
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 7: Because Lebron, you know, it seeming like he had these

760
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 7: comments prepared, and that the end of it. He said,

761
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 7: I'll be there physically, but mentally, so he said he's

762
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 7: going to do it. Yeah, the same with Darren Fox

763
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 7: at the end of the clip he said, well, I'm going.

764
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 7: You know, if I get picked, I'm going because you

765
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 7: get fined and you have to go. And the Players

766
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 7: Association represents them and they made this deal. Lebron was

767
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 7: told before the season that there wasn't going to be

768
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,479
Speaker 7: an All Star Game, and so I think that's why

769
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 7: he kind of terms it a or calls it a

770
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 7: slap in the face, because, yeah, he had two months

771
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 7: off and now he's got to go play bass a

772
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 7: meaningless basketball game. No, no other league is doing this.

773
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 7: You know, we can talk about the regular season and

774
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:47,720
Speaker 7: starting that up in general and how that's kind of irresponsible,

775
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 7: but then you make the argument that hey, it does

776
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 7: put food on people's table. There are a lot of

777
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 7: people who are employed around sports leagues, but an All

778
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 7: Star game, that's a whole other level of greed. The

779
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 7: first first step of starting a regular season and starting

780
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 7: an NBA season, I mean it took a lot of

781
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 7: It took a lot of people risking a lot of

782
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 7: things to make it happen. But this all start thing,

783
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 7: it doesn't make any sense. Now. Some people will say, hey,

784
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 7: they're already playing, why can't they just go play another game?

785
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 7: But it's not just the players, it's them coming to

786
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,839
Speaker 7: a city. They're coming to Atlanta where we all live

787
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 7: in Open City, and you know, as we all do

788
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 7: covering so many All Star games, there's gonna be so

789
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 7: many fans in and around these hotels. There's gonna be

790
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 7: parties after parties, after party after party after party, and

791
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 7: I'm more concerned with those people were more concerned with

792
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 7: fans hanging out, and it just it just doesn't make sense.

793
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 7: It's irresmall. It's strictly about money, and obviously starting the

794
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 7: NBA was about money, but there's some arguments to be

795
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 7: made for that. You know, you didn't do the bubble

796
00:35:56,120 --> 00:36:01,280
Speaker 7: thing because it didn't make sense financially, and you're trying

797
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 7: this out, and they are I think, rectifying where everything

798
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 7: was going wrong in terms of all the Corona protocol

799
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 7: and guys contracting the virus. But this is too much.

800
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 7: I don't know how you can back this. This is

801
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 7: just bad optically for the league.

802
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you think, Trey, especially after Lebron's comments

803
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,319
Speaker 2: last night that may be caught you by surprise, maybe

804
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 2: they didn't, But what do you think of the chances

805
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 2: of this actually going down? I think it's definitely gonna happen.

806
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 4: I remember Lebron said he also didn't want to play

807
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 4: games with no fans in the stands, and obviously that

808
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 4: has been the case. But yeah, that's gonna happen. The

809
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:36,959
Speaker 4: money is there and that's the only reason the league

810
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 4: is doing it. Obviously it's a risk, and it's even

811
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 4: a risk I think for the league to be bringing

812
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 4: all the best players from the best teams in the

813
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,919
Speaker 4: league and possibly then having to the next week out

814
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 4: set all those guys down, or perhaps have games postponed

815
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 4: because the biggest stars in the league have contact tracing

816
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 4: or whatever the case may be in the future. But

817
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 4: it's gonna happen. It's definitely gonna happen unless players key

818
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,840
Speaker 4: keep speaking out about it for the next month, and

819
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 4: in which case maybe there's some sort of an effect.

820
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 4: I don't think that that will be the case, but

821
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 4: I don't know. A weird decision, and I'm just looking

822
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,880
Speaker 4: forward to another All Star being in a city that

823
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 4: we have a connection to and not getting an invite

824
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 4: to a celebrity game. I mean, clearly there's not gonna

825
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 4: be a celebrity game. We would say no to this one,

826
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 4: but it's gonna be very funny having it here and

827
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:22,720
Speaker 4: being like, well not again.

828
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, anything to add Herely.

829
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,439
Speaker 3: It's all about the bunts. But the bunts, the nice

830
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,720
Speaker 3: little learner, the buns and burner, the bunce.

831
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 4: Bunce definitely thought you meant buns like a baseball bunce.

832
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,280
Speaker 2: I thought he meant likens.

833
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 3: I didn't know where he was going. I thought, you,

834
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 3: that's a David Bread classic. I can't believe you didn't. Yeah,

835
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 3: what's the buns? I mean, of course it is.

836
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 2: Of course it is.

837
00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 3: There's absolutely no other logical reason behind this other than

838
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 3: there's an extra weekend here to make some money, sell

839
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 3: some stuff, and put it on TV. That's all it is.

840
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 3: You know, pretending it's got anything to do with entertaining

841
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 3: people or anything like that is completely false. It's all

842
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 3: about just making as much money, and because of all

843
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 3: the lost revenue from the last season and this season,

844
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 3: anywhere anything you can do to generate some more of

845
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 3: that revenue back, the league's going to do it. That's

846
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 3: clearly what it is. And if Lebron comes out and

847
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 3: says what he said, there's no way the NBA can say, Okay,

848
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 3: we won't have it. They can't give Lebron that sort

849
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 3: of power, you know, so they have to be the opposite.

850
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,880
Speaker 3: And like, you know, if the entire Players Association and

851
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 3: everyone says, okay, we're not going, we're not playing, then

852
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 3: that's a different story. But if someone like Lebron, you know, again,

853
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 3: he's a powerful person. His voice carries a lot of weight.

854
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 3: But if he just says this sucks, this is stupid,

855
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 3: we shouldn't be doing it, the NBA says, okay, we're

856
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 3: going to cancel it, that just makes the NBA in

857
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 3: itself then look like they're bowing to Lebron's pressure and

858
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 3: not everyone else's. But if Lebron calls up everybody and

859
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 3: he says, listen, just don't go abought this thing. We're

860
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 3: not going. Then there's a conversation to be had. But

861
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:07,319
Speaker 3: I don't think we're going to get it. We're going

862
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,760
Speaker 3: to get there because like we saw to start the season,

863
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 3: the players said, we didn't want to start before Martin

864
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 3: Luther King Day. The NBA said, well you're gonna it's

865
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,320
Speaker 3: gonna cost you five hundred million dollars, and everyone's like, okay,

866
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 3: then we'll play. It's fine. We're safe enough to do

867
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:20,280
Speaker 3: it a month earlier.

868
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 2: So yeah, okay, so that's that's obviously a nominee. There

869
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 2: tess the All Star Game in general, I guess for

870
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:27,879
Speaker 2: worst of the week.

871
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's not far shit. I don't know what you

872
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 7: guys are going to be doing that weekend here at Atlanta,

873
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,759
Speaker 7: but just you know, stay in kid me.

874
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be watching it probably live stream the whole weekend.

875
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 2: And this is the I mean, look, you know, I

876
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 2: see a lot of people on Twitter too say what

877
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 2: are we doing this? Well this is stupid. Well they're

878
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 2: probably the same people watching it. But you know, if

879
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 2: you really want to prove your point, I guess, don't

880
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,880
Speaker 2: watch it. Don't give them. You know, your money, your eyeballs,

881
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 2: your your support. But it is crazy, it's it's it's

882
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,439
Speaker 2: a pointless scheme and it's like only putting more people

883
00:39:58,480 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 2: at risk. I think that was a good way to

884
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 2: look at it. Task like it's even less so the

885
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 2: players is the issue. I mean, hopefully they're following the

886
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 2: safety protocols and they're not going out to Magic City

887
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 2: here in Atlanta. But it is all the being here

888
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 2: in Atlanta, being in Georgia. It's the parties, like you said,

889
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 2: it's the fanfare around it. That's where these are super

890
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,720
Speaker 2: you know, spreading events is could could really hurt people

891
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 2: down ad So that's that's a concern.

892
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 7: So yeah, An, Yeah, there's gonna be fans in the arena.

893
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 7: You know, it's not gonna be a full arena, but

894
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 7: there will be fans at the bottom. There will be

895
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 7: corporate seats sold, because that's already happening in Atlanta. We

896
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 7: saw the scenario last year or last week with old

897
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 7: steroid ass as Lebron put it. You know, in the

898
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 7: front row, there's gonna be some fans there, there's gonna

899
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 7: be seats sold, And yeah, it's not so much concern

900
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 7: about the players because they should be responsible, but who knows.

901
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 7: It's also their All Star break, you know. WOJ reported

902
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 7: last night that during the also break, players will be

903
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 7: allowed to travel in the United States and about in

904
00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 7: US territories, not abroad, just so they don't have problems

905
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:05,319
Speaker 7: coming back. But that leads to other problems. It's who

906
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 7: knows what's going to happen in the second half of

907
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 7: the season. It's it's just strange to me, you know.

908
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 7: You you want to say the science leads and all that.

909
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 7: Obviously the science didn't lead making the decision in December,

910
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,320
Speaker 7: but this is just this is a whole other level

911
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 7: to me. And the players are going to play. I

912
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 7: think lebron was consulted. I think lebron knew the fact

913
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:24,840
Speaker 7: that he said, I'm playing. I'm not going to be

914
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 7: there mentally, but I'm going to be there physically. And

915
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 7: they're doing this, They're they're taking sort of precautions by

916
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,920
Speaker 7: saying it's going to be one night. It's not going

917
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 7: to be you know, a Friday, Saturday, Sunday thing that

918
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:37,920
Speaker 7: they're going to be in and out, or you're not

919
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,880
Speaker 7: going to have the Rising Stars Challenge, You're not going

920
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 7: to have some of the other things, like a celebrity

921
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,560
Speaker 7: game that we won't be in, so yeah, but still

922
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 7: it's not those aren't concessions they should just what's the point.

923
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 7: It's just it's all about the Greenbacks or the Buns

924
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,759
Speaker 7: and Burners.

925
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 2: The Buns, the Buns. Do we know what they're doing.

926
00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 2: They're doing an East versus West game, right, We're just

927
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,879
Speaker 2: going to that, Like it sounds like we're not drafting teams, right, yeah,

928
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 2: I think that's the last report I saw. And then

929
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 2: also like are we doing the elam ending again? Are

930
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 2: we just playing a shorter game? Like I guess we

931
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 2: don't know the details yet? And like when when is

932
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,440
Speaker 2: this dunk contest and three point contests happening? Is one

933
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 2: of them before the game?

934
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 3: Lead?

935
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:21,800
Speaker 2: Is the dunk contest at halftime of the All Star Games?

936
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,239
Speaker 3: I would guess. I mean, I know they're saying it's

937
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 3: one not but I'm guessing those are going to be

938
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:28,359
Speaker 3: on a separate night. I'm guessing a Friday night.

939
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, it's.

940
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,879
Speaker 3: Also together on the same day. Yeah, well, I get,

941
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 3: I mean it has to be like three o'clock in

942
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 3: the afternoon, then, doesn't that I mean because they there

943
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:35,879
Speaker 3: could be some.

944
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 2: I mean, my guess is they do the three point

945
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 2: contest before the game, and why wouldn't you just have

946
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 2: the dunk contest at halftime?

947
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 4: Ye?

948
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:50,399
Speaker 2: Players, It's all right.

949
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 7: Let's move on. Second nominee, the Minnesota Timberwolves. It's happened

950
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 7: so many times during worst of the week and we

951
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,879
Speaker 7: got so many tweets about it. John Ford writes, you

952
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 7: guessed it. It's the Temples and the tweet steak kept coming.

953
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 7: Wolves fourth quarter collapse against the Spurs was ridiculous. It's true,

954
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:16,360
Speaker 7: and another one as always, it's gotta be my Wolves. Yes, Josh,

955
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,400
Speaker 7: totally Josh, I totally bely. But it wasn't all that

956
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,080
Speaker 7: bad this past week. But it's just there. Wolves fans

957
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 7: are just in this perpetual state of saddom. I mean,

958
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 7: that's the way it's going to be this season. It

959
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 7: wasn't that bad because number one pick Anthony Edwards did

960
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,280
Speaker 7: some starting is looking pretty good getting into the starting lineup.

961
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 7: They beat the Calves, but that blow up, blow up

962
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 7: up sixteen Wednesday on the Spurs in the fourth quarter

963
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 7: and they just fell apart. So the Wolves every week

964
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:47,240
Speaker 7: they're going to be in here every stinking.

965
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 2: Week, sending our best to Joe Mandy right now.

966
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 4: At least timber Wolves fans seem to be congenial about it.

967
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 4: They're like, as always, it's us, Yes, indeed we are

968
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 4: the worst of the week. We get it. Yeah, a

969
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 4: bad one for the timber Wolves. But like you're saying,

970
00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 4: Tess Anthony Edwards, at least he looks exciting.

971
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:05,680
Speaker 7: Mm hmm.

972
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 2: It might be in the dunk content. It might be

973
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 2: in the dunk contest. Throw it out there, all right.

974
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 7: Last nominee here is the Raptors Norman Powell. He missed

975
00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:18,320
Speaker 7: it dunk versus the Orlando Magic. It was a breakaway

976
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,839
Speaker 7: dunk and he wanted to do a little boating and showing.

977
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:24,919
Speaker 2: High game too.

978
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:29,479
Speaker 7: Yes see, yeah, it's a close game and he's trying

979
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 7: to put it away with it dunk and he misses

980
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 7: by a mile. Oh yeah, it would have been a

981
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 7: nice dunk.

982
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:37,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, would have been pretty good.

983
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:40,360
Speaker 7: And we missed this on our YouTube whoopsies video that

984
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 7: you guys should check out. So I wanted to squeeze

985
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 7: it in this week. Some fall through the cracks.

986
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it happens a lot of whoopsies in the in

987
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 2: the League over a week. You gotta let us know

988
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 2: if you see a whoopsie, and some of you have

989
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 2: been great at it, you know, tweeting on us, letting

990
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 2: us know on Instagram. Keep doing that because we're trying

991
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 2: to keep up with all these whoopsies and all the

992
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 2: loops and the hoops. Man, they can get by it.

993
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 4: You're right, tak can Norm Powell not palma basketball? Because

994
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 4: remember he had that huge dunk against the Pacers, and

995
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 4: even in that one, it's kind of like wobbling in

996
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,080
Speaker 4: his hand and he's always trying to come from over top.

997
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:09,959
Speaker 4: Guess it is probably just a matter of time before

998
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 4: he joinked one off the back there.

999
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:16,480
Speaker 2: Who's got smaller feet, Trey Kirby or Norman Powell? Guarantee?

1000
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 4: I have smaller feet than Norman Powell. I mean, but

1001
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 4: I can almost pull paula basketball. The hands are average.

1002
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:25,960
Speaker 2: Average decently, Yeah, yeah, just average.

1003
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 7: We got to measure that. I think you guys are

1004
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 7: the same size. I mean he's not.

1005
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. Okay, So those are the knobs.

1006
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 2: It sounds like the All Star Game is probably running

1007
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:37,359
Speaker 2: away with this week's.

1008
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:39,800
Speaker 7: It seems that way. It seems that way the stream

1009
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 7: team is agreeing. Yeah, it's the little bokers. I guess

1010
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 7: we'll all be watching. But is there gonna be a fallout?

1011
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:52,360
Speaker 7: Do do fans? Do fans stop watching basketball because of

1012
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 7: this decision? I mean yeah, it's unlikely to that would happen, but.

1013
00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:01,320
Speaker 3: People people, people will watch anything just to watch something.

1014
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 3: So I think it's one of those things they're just

1015
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,239
Speaker 3: going to go, oh, well they did it, let's just

1016
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 3: watch it anyway. No, I mean that's what it is.

1017
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:12,439
Speaker 3: It's just putting that content on, isn't it like get

1018
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,440
Speaker 3: something on the TV keep people's attention.

1019
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,839
Speaker 7: I just mean more long, long term. There's an off

1020
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 7: like like you know, the the NFL has done some

1021
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 7: things in the past few years that have turned people off. Yeah,

1022
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 7: and this I don't.

1023
00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 3: Think this is that extreme, but yeah, it's disappointing though

1024
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 3: as basketball fans for me anyway, see them go to

1025
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 3: the extremes of like, you know, like you're not allowed

1026
00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,840
Speaker 3: to hug or you're not allowed to dap up the

1027
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 3: guy you were just sweating on and breathing on for

1028
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:43,919
Speaker 3: the last forty eight minutes and not allowed to after

1029
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,040
Speaker 3: the game, No handshakes, nothing like that. But we're also

1030
00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:50,360
Speaker 3: going to get everyone together to play a completely meaningless

1031
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 3: game and have a completely meaningless dunk contest and three

1032
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:57,360
Speaker 3: point shoot out, because it's just there's just absolutely no

1033
00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:59,840
Speaker 3: point to doing it. It just seems like it's like

1034
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:02,440
Speaker 3: we're desperate for the cash though, that's why we're doing it,

1035
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 3: So we're gonna We're gonna go ahead with it. And

1036
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,759
Speaker 3: then again, you know, George Hill was one who spoke

1037
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:10,040
Speaker 3: at early like, you know, when you're traveling around and

1038
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,840
Speaker 3: you're not even allowed to leave your hotel room, you know,

1039
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 3: but then you're going to put together an event like

1040
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 3: this in a state that hasn't done a good job.

1041
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,399
Speaker 3: I mean, the entire country hasn't done a good job

1042
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 3: with the coronavirus, but this has been one of the

1043
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 3: worst states, and it's like we're putting it together anyway.

1044
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,320
Speaker 3: It seems like it's like, well, we we can sort

1045
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:30,880
Speaker 3: of take a calculated risk that you know, maybe a

1046
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 3: few people will get it, but ultimately the money that

1047
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 3: we make from it is going to be worth it.

1048
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:36,400
Speaker 3: That's that's what it feels like to me.

1049
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 7: The NFL didn't even do the Pro Bowl, And don't

1050
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 7: get me wrong, I want to watch them suit up

1051
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,880
Speaker 7: in Hawaii or whatever. They No, I wouldn't, But.

1052
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 2: The last time you watched a Pro Ball, have you.

1053
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 3: Ever thought stopped I thought they stopped.

1054
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:51,919
Speaker 2: Feeling back in the day.

1055
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 4: Back in the day would be like, man, you're seeing

1056
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:57,120
Speaker 4: Steve Young throwing it out there to Andre Rising.

1057
00:47:57,239 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 2: This is ridiculous. I remember a punter got laid out

1058
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 2: right in the Probram. I think you're right, Yeah, that

1059
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:05,840
Speaker 2: was a cool clip. I don't know who it was.

1060
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:07,799
Speaker 2: I have no idea who did the hit, but just

1061
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 2: Sean Taylor, maybe Sean Taylor, maybe me blasted a guy.

1062
00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:12,480
Speaker 2: I don't know that sounds right, or we're gonna say

1063
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:13,439
Speaker 2: late built Pro Bowl.

1064
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,279
Speaker 3: I thought they stopped doing it, but I think they did.

1065
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,759
Speaker 2: I think they they stopped going to Hawaii.

1066
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Florida.

1067
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:25,839
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, all right, Pro Bowl? Okay, great stuff. Good

1068
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 2: worst of the week. Let's uh, let's get to tweet

1069
00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,520
Speaker 2: of the night. But before we do, gotta pay the

1070
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 2: bills here, man, what do we got j D?

1071
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,440
Speaker 5: Before we do that, it's gonna it's gonna be weird

1072
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,440

00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,919
Speaker 4: This is incredible stuff. When you think classics, the first

1122
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:06,600

1156

Speaker 5: before a poutine eating contest.

1159
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,719
Speaker 2: Well, look, you should be happy one. We're not going

1161
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:52,359

1162
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,480
Speaker 2: need to really blast this. What I don't think I

1163
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,600
Speaker 2: will say, like the apple sauce on a roast beef,

1164
00:52:57,640 --> 00:52:59,759
Speaker 2: we thought might be a little crazi or zadier than

1165
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:01,600
Speaker 2: it is, but you seem to really just like it.

1166
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:03,520
Speaker 2: I mean, so maybe that just backfired on us. Now

1167
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:06,280
Speaker 2: I'm intrigued. I'm putting apple sauce on it, right.

1233
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 4: on their most popular and successful singles. No not No Dunks.

1234
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,120
Speaker 4: If you want the deep cuts on youtubes hidden gems,

1235
00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:34,040
Speaker 4: look no further. No Dunks also avoids the pitfall of

1236
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:38,520
Speaker 4: getting two bogged down in bono talk. Occasional digressions into

1237
00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:41,640

1254
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:35,880
Speaker 4: Our last review from Moe par jg R best Around.

1255
00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:37,680
Speaker 2: It was a night like any other.

1256
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,040
Speaker 4: I woke up around four am to take a pee,

1257
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,920
Speaker 4: and I thought, okay, I guess now is my chance

1258
00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 4: to try my mate Lee's recommendation Hot Life takes pee backwards.

1259
00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 4: As I'm mounting my toilet like Gary about to hop

1260
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:53,640
Speaker 4: on a mechanical ball, I think about how long I've

1261
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:56,600
Speaker 4: been listening to these guys. Grant Land, wasn't it back

1262
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,200
Speaker 4: in the TVJ days? Then the Starters and a short

1263
00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:03,480
Speaker 4: lived free Age now legitimately their most innovative no dunks.

1264
00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:06,160
Speaker 4: As I was finishing my business and standing up. I

1265
00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:09,120
Speaker 4: smashed my face off a shell. My wife had recently

1266
00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:13,160
Speaker 4: asked me to hang knocking it some random decor and

1267
00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:15,960
Speaker 4: some rolls of toilet paper everywhere. I now have a

1268
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:18,560
Speaker 4: black eye. Five out of five I would try it again.

1269
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:20,960
Speaker 4: I love you guys from Lake in Illinois. Shout out

1270
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:23,920
Speaker 4: to you, Mopar Wow. Shout out to everybody for the

1271
00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:26,200
Speaker 4: five star reviews there. You gotta be careful when you're

1272
00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 4: trying for the first time the leap. I guess when

1273
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:29,800
Speaker 4: you mount the toilet backwards.

1274
00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,200
Speaker 3: Like yeah, I mean, it was an accidental thing that

1275
00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 3: I sort of stumbled upon. But is Lake in anywhere

1276
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:36,640
Speaker 3: near you train and Plano there.

1277
00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,280
Speaker 2: Lake in Illinois? I actually don't know where that is.

1278
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:42,600
Speaker 2: Let me do a quick little googs googs here. You've

1279
00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:44,960
Speaker 2: never injured yourself doing a leap though, No.

1280
00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 3: But what I did do the other I don't know

1281
00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:49,400
Speaker 3: a couple of nights ago is I went for the

1282
00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:52,960
Speaker 3: p and I kicked over the toilet roll hold a stand,

1283
00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:56,280
Speaker 3: which is this metal thing knocked onto the ground, and

1284
00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:58,200
Speaker 3: you know, like you've got your wife sleeping, and I'm like,

1285
00:58:58,280 --> 00:59:00,320
Speaker 3: oh my god, I've probably just woken up her up,

1286
00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:02,640
Speaker 3: you know, for no reason. You never want to wake

1287
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:05,200
Speaker 3: up your wife just for no reason, you know, especially

1288
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:05,680
Speaker 3: like three in.

00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:07,160
Speaker 2: Them more was a lay fact for you.

1290
00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:10,000
Speaker 3: It is it is, It is like you know, because

1291
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:11,600
Speaker 3: if you wake them up and they can't get back

1292
00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:13,640
Speaker 3: to sleep, and you just because you were too clumsy

1293
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 3: in the night taking a pee. Ah, it's just awful.

1294
00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 2: It's all worried about you, what you're doing in the

1295
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 2: middle of the night. The technique, no, because I feel

1296
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:26,120
Speaker 2: like you're like that gift going around like from an

1297
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 2: info for a show where someone's like with the hoses, Yeah,

1298

1299
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:31,760
Speaker 2: middle of.

1300
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 3: The That's what I felt like, Yeah, yeah, but nah,

1301
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:37,680
Speaker 3: but I got there at the end. It's only happened

1302
00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:39,880
Speaker 3: once or twice. But you know, when you like, I say,

1303
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:42,720
Speaker 3: when your wife's sleeping, do not wake her up. That's

1304
00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:43,040
Speaker 3: a life.

1305
00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:45,080
Speaker 2: Did you wake up Roxy last night? But she's like,

1307
00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:52,800

1308
00:59:52,840 --> 00:59:56,120
Speaker 3: the kitchen and I thought, you know, I'll be up

1309
00:59:56,160 --> 00:59:58,640
Speaker 3: until I don't know, eleven o'clock. Maybe here. I didn't

1310
00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:01,680
Speaker 3: think we're going too late. So I didn't move to

1311
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 3: like the basement where it would have been. You know,

1312
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:05,480
Speaker 3: there was no way she would have heard us. I thought,

1313
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 3: I'll just stay here, but I just get weird. Another

1314

Speaker 2: say good night, and then stuck around for another ninety minutes.

1318
01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 3: I said, I felt like I was had a party

1319
01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:25,080
Speaker 3: and I couldn't leave, even though there was nobody in

1320
01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:27,200
Speaker 3: my house. All I had to do was belower the flat,

1321
01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:29,000
Speaker 3: the laptop, and I was out.

1322
01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:29,560

1338
01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:12,360
Speaker 2: A lot of blowouts there last night. We actually picked

1344
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:29,640
Speaker 2: and the Grizzlies were favorites at home one and a

1345
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:33,200
Speaker 2: half small line, Lee, I told you, man, you swerved.

1346
01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:35,920
Speaker 2: The swerve is perfect in the month of February. And

1347
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 2: what does the swerve mean. It means when just one

1348
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:39,840
Speaker 2: guy goes with one team and everybody else back to

1349
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 2: the other team. It's perfect. It's worked every time. And

1350
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:45,080
Speaker 2: you had the Rockets, you got the w that's your

1351
01:01:45,120 --> 01:01:47,440
Speaker 2: first victory. You're one in three tastes one and three.

1352
01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:49,480
Speaker 2: He had the Grizzlies loss. I had the Grizzlies. I'm

1353
01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:51,400
Speaker 2: two and two and Trey my man, still looking for

1354
01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:51,920
Speaker 2: his first win.

1355
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:54,160
Speaker 4: Here, you gotta let me pick last. I gotta get

1356
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:54,960
Speaker 4: the chance to swerve.

1357
01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:56,640
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, that's.

1358
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,720
Speaker 3: See, that's the thing. I actually think I picked first yesterday,

1359
01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:02,120
Speaker 3: So it wasn't technically a swim. It was yeah, I mean.

1360
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:08,280
Speaker 2: Gentlemen, gentleman, So tasa. Obviously a lot of games on

1361
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:09,960
Speaker 2: where we focusing on today.

1362
01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:12,800
Speaker 7: We got a big one on ESPN the Celtics visiting

1363
01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,720
Speaker 7: the Los Angeles Clippers, who are coming home after a

1364
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:19,160
Speaker 7: long road trip, and the Clippers are favored by five

1365
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:21,760
Speaker 7: and a half points. They're coming home after a six

1366
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:25,040
Speaker 7: game trip while Boston is on their long trip out

1367
01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:27,400
Speaker 7: West the second game or third game, I think of

1368
01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:28,840
Speaker 7: their of their trip. So it's a five and a

1369
01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:33,600
Speaker 7: half point spread. You're picking the winner. Let's be honest.

1370
01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 7: Let's be honest here, who you got?

1371
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:36,800
Speaker 1: Uh not?

1372
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:39,160
Speaker 7: Starting with Trey Lee go go first?

1373
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:39,600
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1374
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 3: So this this line. I looked at that and I

1375
01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:44,440
Speaker 3: thought that's a little bit juicy, I thought, But I

1376
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:48,200
Speaker 3: think it's that juicy because Jalen Brown is questionable and

1377
01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:51,720
Speaker 3: there's no update on him. So I'm gonna take I'm

1378
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:55,080
Speaker 3: gonna make my bet assuming Jalen Brown is out. Okay,

1379
01:02:55,560 --> 01:02:58,320
Speaker 3: Kember is probably back, Marcus Smart is still out, and

1380
01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 3: I'm taking the Clippers at six points. I think Jalen

1381
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:04,000
Speaker 3: Brown makes that big a difference. If he plays, I

1382
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:06,120
Speaker 3: would switch back to the Celtics, but you can't do

1383
01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:07,680
Speaker 3: that in this game. You got to pick what you

1384
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,520
Speaker 3: know at the time, and I'm gonna assume that Brown

1385
01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:13,200
Speaker 3: doesn't play. I'm taking the Clippers at five and a half.

1386
01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:17,880
Speaker 2: It skeets, Yeah, tough one, tough one, tough one. I'm

1387
01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 2: gonna go to the Celtics. I don't know. I feel

1388
01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:22,480
Speaker 2: like maybe this is a maybe it's a swerve. Maybe

1389
01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:24,120
Speaker 2: it's not. We'll find out from you guys in a second,

1390
01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:27,600
Speaker 2: but I think I think Boston can keep this close.

1391
01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:29,040
Speaker 2: You know, they had a bad loss there the other

1392
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 2: night against the Kings, and the no Jalen that does

1393
01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:35,040
Speaker 2: worry me. That's a that's not good. But well, he's questionable,

1394
01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:38,280
Speaker 2: he's questionable. He might play, and honestly, more times than not,

1395
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:40,600
Speaker 2: we've seen this happen. You know, a star player is

1396
01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:42,560
Speaker 2: not playing or whatever, and you think that team's gonna

1397
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:44,920
Speaker 2: get absolutely hammered, and actually the opposite happens a lot

1398
01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:46,840
Speaker 2: of the time. Teams like maybe take their foot off

1399
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:48,440
Speaker 2: the gas. They think it's gonna mean he's a victory.

1400
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:50,160
Speaker 2: All these guys that are playing for minutes, they get

1401
01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:52,960
Speaker 2: an opportunity. They're playing a little harder. Maybe the defense there. Anyway,

1402
01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:55,120
Speaker 2: I'll take the Celtics to cover. I still think the

1403
01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:56,880
Speaker 2: Clippers win this game. But give me the give me

1404
01:03:56,920 --> 01:03:58,240
Speaker 2: the five and a half? Is that what I get there?

1405
01:03:58,240 --> 01:03:58,520
Speaker 3: Testing?

1406
01:03:58,800 --> 01:03:59,080
Speaker 7: Yes?

1407
01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:00,840
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yah, take Boston.

1408
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,600
Speaker 7: It sure happens when stars don't play that obviously, that

1409
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:07,000
Speaker 7: happened last night. No Dame and no CJ. McCollum and

1410
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:11,040
Speaker 7: Blazers win in Philly. Right right, here's another life hack,

1411
01:04:11,280 --> 01:04:13,840
Speaker 7: but it's a basketball hack. When a team comes back

1412
01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:16,200
Speaker 7: from a long trip, they don't play too well that

1413
01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:18,840
Speaker 7: first game. So I'm gonna take Boston. I'm gonna take

1414
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,360
Speaker 7: Boston on the road here, keep it close at least.

1415
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:23,480
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, Trey, where are you going?

1416
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 6: Uh?

1417
01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:27,080
Speaker 2: Two Boston's and a Clipper? I don't know which makes

1418
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:30,240
Speaker 2: me trace swervy give me the Clippers either.

1419
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:33,000
Speaker 4: The swerve works, and it is considered a swerve where

1420
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:36,480
Speaker 4: I have a perfect zero to five weeks anyway, good stuff.

1421
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:38,280
Speaker 2: All right? All right, so yeah, we're split on this one.

1422
01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:39,840
Speaker 2: Two of us with the clips, two of us with

1423
01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:41,880
Speaker 2: the Celtics show, us in the Bean Town Boys show

1424
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:46,080
Speaker 2: to Isaac and the Clippers fandom. Okay, let's wrap this

1425
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:48,160
Speaker 2: up with a little rapid fire fun. JD of the

1426
01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:51,000
Speaker 2: honor this week, I'm hitting us with the questions.

1427
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:51,160
Speaker 7: How about it?

1428
01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:53,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, so this week we found out that Jared Dudley

1429
01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:57,320
Speaker 5: has written a book about the NBA bubble. To call

1430
01:04:57,360 --> 01:05:00,800
Speaker 5: it a book, though, might be a bit of a stretch. Uh,

1431
01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:02,760
Speaker 5: it's forty two pages long.

1432
01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 6: Is that really a book? More of a pdf?

1433
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 5: We were saying, maybe a pamphlet, manifesto. I don't know,

1434
01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:13,080
Speaker 5: But you know what, it's probably exactly the length that

1435
01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 5: Jared needed to tell us about his experience. What's in

1436
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:19,640
Speaker 5: an era or event in your life that you could

1437
01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:22,840
Speaker 5: squeeze or a stretch into forty two pages?

1438
01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:26,439
Speaker 2: Skeets, I won't overthink this last night's NBA Half hour

1439
01:05:26,880 --> 01:05:30,880
Speaker 2: or sure, I think I just stole somebody's answer, absolutely perfect,

1440
01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:35,440
Speaker 2: Like it felt like forty two pages for sure, whatever

1441
01:05:35,440 --> 01:05:36,880
Speaker 2: the heck that means. It was a lot of fun,

1442
01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:38,560
Speaker 2: though there was like chapters too. I mean we had

1443
01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:41,480
Speaker 2: a we had a top shot chapter. We obviously had

1444
01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:43,680
Speaker 2: the Mattio catching up with him chapter, or we had

1445
01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:46,640
Speaker 2: the Singing chapter. We had the Blair Witch Project chapter,

1446
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 2: we had the Macon Eggs chapter. I mean it it's

1447
01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:51,520
Speaker 2: like a book. So that's my answer. Sorry if I

1448
01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:52,080
Speaker 2: stole it there.

1449
01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:53,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, you got to get in there and tag that

1450
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:54,320
Speaker 6: thing today.

1451
01:05:54,920 --> 01:06:03,400
Speaker 2: Oh god, maybe maybe on the way. Don't do that

1452
01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:05,520
Speaker 2: for me. Hey, somebody out there, do me a favor.

1453
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:08,200
Speaker 2: Talk to me offline here and help me out with

1454
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:09,320
Speaker 2: those times.

1455
01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:10,520
Speaker 6: Y all right, Tazzy.

1456
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:14,520
Speaker 7: Well, when I broke my leg in two thousand and eight,

1457
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,360
Speaker 7: I make that six month period into a book. I

1458
01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:20,680
Speaker 7: think that there's enough there. First of all, you know,

1459
01:06:20,800 --> 01:06:24,720
Speaker 7: being on the baseball field lying down with all my

1460
01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:27,200
Speaker 7: buddies looking over me and me looking up at them,

1461
01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:28,920
Speaker 7: and I have one guy telling me to get on

1462
01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:32,080
Speaker 7: my back because he wanted to assess my broken leg.

1463
01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 7: I've got a broken leg. I don't want to lie

1464
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:36,880
Speaker 7: on my back. But anyway, it went on and on,

1465
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:40,120
Speaker 7: learning to walk again. For the fantastic nurses I had

1466
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:42,919
Speaker 7: when I took those percocets in the hospital, I saw

1467
01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:46,120
Speaker 7: the white light, thought I was gone going back to

1468
01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:49,680
Speaker 7: talk to those nurses again. Yeah, learning to walk doing

1469
01:06:49,720 --> 01:06:51,760
Speaker 7: this show was our first year of video and yeah,

1470
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:55,640
Speaker 7: two thousand and eight, hobbling up there and crutches and

1471
01:06:55,760 --> 01:06:59,280
Speaker 7: dancing like Elvis, Elvis coming back here early on in

1472
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:03,919
Speaker 7: our in our show way back when. Yeah, there's there's

1473
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:07,840
Speaker 7: just chapter after chapter after chapter here. So yeah, we

1474
01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:09,120
Speaker 7: can we can pull that off.

1475
01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:10,160
Speaker 8: We can pull that off.

1476
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:12,160
Speaker 7: And I quit my job at the end of it too,

1477
01:07:12,240 --> 01:07:14,720
Speaker 7: That's that's a big part of it. Quit TSN. They

1478
01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:17,120
Speaker 7: paid me for six months, thanks very much, and then

1479
01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:19,920
Speaker 7: I quit before I had to go back. What an

1480
01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 7: a hole I am? So yeah, I think I can

1481
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,680
Speaker 7: probably get forty three pages out of that, I think, Yeah.

1482
01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:29,120
Speaker 6: I think so late.

1483
01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:32,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, and I saw this question and I thought,

1484
01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:35,480
Speaker 3: I mean, Tas wasn't on the on the call last night,

1485
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:36,840
Speaker 3: so I thought, he's probably not going to say it,

1486
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:40,200
Speaker 3: And I thought, A Betskeets does say it. But then

1487
01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:41,960
Speaker 3: I thought, you know what, look Bing Gulliver wrote a

1488
01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:43,720
Speaker 3: book down in the bubble. Jared Dudley wrote a book

1489
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:45,080
Speaker 3: in the bubble, So why can't I just have the

1490
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:50,160
Speaker 3: same answer as all.

1491
01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:48,960
Speaker 2: Right, all right.

1492
01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:50,880
Speaker 3: You know, I missed the first hour or so. I

1493
01:07:50,920 --> 01:07:53,200
Speaker 3: can't remember when I joined there, So I'm just going

1494
01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:55,640
Speaker 3: to take the exact same answer from a different angle.

1495
01:07:55,640 --> 01:07:59,320
Speaker 2: There's kets despite your writing a book right now?

1496
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:01,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, but that's not going to be forty

1497
01:08:01,160 --> 01:08:03,120
Speaker 3: two pages. It's going to be. It's gonna be.

1498
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:04,800
Speaker 2: Is that going to be a chapter in your book?

1499
01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:07,520
Speaker 2: We did four and a half hours on the live stream.

1500
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:10,080
Speaker 3: I mean it might be now, it might be because I

1501
01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:12,000
Speaker 3: don't know if there's ever been a live stream like

1502
01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:14,560
Speaker 3: that long outdate before it.

1503
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:20,760
Speaker 2: I mean, oh yeah, yeah, were setting records last I.

1504
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 3: Think we're setting records. I think so like we be

1505
01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:25,120
Speaker 3: live for you? Yeah think, I don't know.

1506
01:08:25,400 --> 01:08:29,080
Speaker 6: It was great, perfect and that'll do you answer?

1507
01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:34,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, okay, you guys want to go for the record, Yeah,

1508
01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:36,800
Speaker 4: go for the record. The longest live stream is two

1509
01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:40,320
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty nine hours, forty six minutes and forty

1510
01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:43,280
Speaker 4: five seconds, set in December of twenty twenty.

1511
01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:45,639
Speaker 2: Oh wow, it's there for the taking.

1512
01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:46,040
Speaker 6: Wow.

1513
01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:48,040
Speaker 2: Well, I don't think we got to go for that,

1514
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:49,519
Speaker 2: though I did say I think I said it on

1515
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 2: last night's show. At some point we got to do

1516
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:55,160
Speaker 2: a fun like twenty four hour like charity drive like

1517
01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:57,320
Speaker 2: live stream, and we got it. We got enough bits,

1518
01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,639
Speaker 2: we know enough people, we can make enough segments happen.

1519
01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:01,840
Speaker 2: Should I think it would be a you know, it'd

1520
01:09:01,880 --> 01:09:03,400
Speaker 2: be hell by the end of it, but it'd be fun.

1521
01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:07,120
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, I think, Well, we'll think about that later.

1522
01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:08,439
Speaker 6: Yeah, let's do that. Let's do it.

1523
01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:11,479
Speaker 5: Okay, next one, This one's gonna Stanley. A brand news

1524
01:09:11,520 --> 01:09:15,680
Speaker 5: segment debuted this week on NBA TV's Center Court. It

1525
01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:20,839
Speaker 5: featured Grant Hill opening a pack of basketball cards.

1526
01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:22,080
Speaker 6: Called ripping packs.

1527
01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:26,240
Speaker 5: Sounds familiar, and just a day later, good friend of

1528
01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:29,960
Speaker 5: the show, Amir Blumenfeld, took to Instagram live to open

1529
01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:32,760
Speaker 5: a case of basketball cards and he just straight up

1530
01:09:32,760 --> 01:09:37,960
Speaker 5: called it popin packs. That sounds really familiar. But you

1531
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:41,800
Speaker 5: know what it happens. Ideas are out there in the ether.

1532
01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:46,280
Speaker 5: Sometimes it's act by accidents, sometimes it's on purpose. But

1533
01:09:46,439 --> 01:09:50,240
Speaker 5: whether it's an idea, a heart, or merchandise, tell us

1534
01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:52,479
Speaker 5: about a time you stole somethings skeets.

1535
01:09:53,240 --> 01:09:56,559
Speaker 2: I've shared this story before. Shout out to my buddy Grish,

1536
01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:58,360
Speaker 2: who I like when I say mighty buddy Grish, the

1537
01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:03,719
Speaker 2: stream team says our buddy Grish, Grish's everybody's I stole

1538
01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:07,080
Speaker 2: him when we were younger. Still so weird. I did this.

1539
01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:09,320
Speaker 2: His birthday was coming up, and I stole him with

1540
01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:12,799
Speaker 2: Kevin Johnson rookie card from a from a card shop.

1541
01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:16,120
Speaker 2: I didn't do things like that, so it was just

1542
01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:18,600
Speaker 2: a weird, weird thing. I just saw an opening and

1543
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:20,240
Speaker 2: I was like, you know, it's easy to steal. I

1544
01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:22,160
Speaker 2: guess I'll take it for him. He liked Kevin Johnson

1545
01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:24,760
Speaker 2: and it was a rookie card and here you go, Wow,

1546
01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:27,439
Speaker 2: really strange. You know, I don't feel good about that.

1547
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:28,000
Speaker 2: Don't do that.

1548
01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:29,720
Speaker 6: Does he still have it?

1549
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:30,760
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1550
01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:33,599
Speaker 2: I don't think so he should. I mean, it's everybody

1551
01:10:33,640 --> 01:10:35,519
Speaker 2: keeps telling me we're in a card craze right now.

1552
01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:39,240
Speaker 2: What Kevin Johnson though maybe not a card you n

1553
01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:41,280
Speaker 2: I don't think so, don't think so.

1554
01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:44,280
Speaker 4: And I think that's why the prices are pretty low. Probably, yeah,

1555
01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:46,080
Speaker 4: I just threw a quick guy through a quick google.

1556
01:10:46,160 --> 01:10:47,840
Speaker 4: Forty dollars for a rookie card.

1557
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:49,880
Speaker 2: Wow, so higher than I thought.

1558
01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:50,200
Speaker 7: It was.

1559
01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:54,960
Speaker 4: Okay, well, ten years ago I would imagine, yeah.

1560
01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:56,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it probably was Okay, so that's my I mean,

1561
01:10:56,960 --> 01:10:58,720
Speaker 2: so I've told that story before. It's a weird thing,

1562
01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:00,559
Speaker 2: but I stole it. That's like one of there. It's

1563
01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:02,040
Speaker 2: one of the only things I've ever stole in my life.

1564
01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:07,640
Speaker 7: That's strange, crazy Tess Well, I steal the sayings of

1565
01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:11,920
Speaker 7: our man mo Vernie all the time. Once upon a

1566
01:11:11,960 --> 01:11:14,840
Speaker 7: time he found out that we talked about him on

1567
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:17,360
Speaker 7: our show and he said, oh, I didn't know that.

1568
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:20,679
Speaker 7: So to so many things I say, oh, I didn't

1569
01:11:20,720 --> 01:11:25,439
Speaker 7: know that. He once went to some somewhere where there

1570
01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:28,599
Speaker 7: was a display with grass on it, and he said,

1571
01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:32,160
Speaker 7: let's go see some grass. So every time I say

1572
01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:34,840
Speaker 7: the word grass to my daughter, let's go play on

1573
01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:40,479
Speaker 7: the grass. And now she says it too. She loves it.

1574
01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:45,000
Speaker 7: Once he was at Canadians actor Russell Peter's house and

1575
01:11:45,560 --> 01:11:49,599
Speaker 7: he's he's a model of kiss, like a wax figures

1576
01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:52,599
Speaker 7: of kiss. And he said, WHOA, Russell Peters really loves kiss.

1577
01:11:53,960 --> 01:11:57,280
Speaker 7: So you know, I mix that in Russell Peters really

1578
01:11:57,280 --> 01:11:59,160
Speaker 7: loved kids. I don't know. I just say a lot

1579
01:11:59,200 --> 01:12:01,320
Speaker 7: of his sayings. He does know that, he doesn't know that,

1580
01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:02,920
Speaker 7: But I say a lot of good things.

1581
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,040
Speaker 6: This one it's going to about a long night.

1582
01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:08,800
Speaker 7: I'm gonna stalk up on energy.

1583
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:12,559
Speaker 2: Of course, you guys did that last night. We say

1584
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:15,679
Speaker 2: them all the time, all the time, somebody is stalking

1585
01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:19,640
Speaker 2: up on energy. Anytime you need energy.

1586
01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:22,640
Speaker 5: I always just say the way he said wow that

1587
01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:24,960
Speaker 5: time when he sees like, uh, he sees like a

1588
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:28,120
Speaker 5: pig roast or something. He arrived at a patio, turned

1589
01:12:28,120 --> 01:12:39,240
Speaker 5: around the corner and it was just like wow, classic, really.

1590
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:47,920
Speaker 3: Wow, this one feels a little dirty. And it's probably

1591
01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:51,080
Speaker 3: probably probably gonna surprise a few people out there when

1592
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:54,320
Speaker 3: I confess to it, But uh, what the hell, let's

1593
01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:57,720
Speaker 3: do it. So I guess it would say last or

1594
01:12:57,720 --> 01:13:01,120
Speaker 3: second last year at NBA TV, and they started running

1595
01:13:01,160 --> 01:13:04,920
Speaker 3: a nightly segment that the sort of highlighted teamwork and

1596
01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:08,000
Speaker 3: ball movement. It wasn't like dunks and alliupes and things

1597
01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:09,880
Speaker 3: like that. It was just like teamwork. It was a

1598
01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:12,960
Speaker 3: segment that was kind of highlighting and celebrating fundamentals of

1599
01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:17,519
Speaker 3: the game. So about four years before that, I just

1600
01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:19,160
Speaker 3: had a feeling they were going to come up with

1601
01:13:19,200 --> 01:13:23,200
Speaker 3: a segment like that, So I actually stole this new

1602
01:13:23,280 --> 01:13:27,920
Speaker 3: segment preemptively from them, hoping nobody would notice, and I

1603
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:30,559
Speaker 3: renamed it, even got a few T shirts made up,

1604
01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:33,800
Speaker 3: I got a hat made up of it, and it

1605
01:13:33,880 --> 01:13:36,720
Speaker 3: was just a complete ripoff of this play that was

1606
01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:42,960
Speaker 3: coming four years later. So when they came, when they

1607
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:44,880
Speaker 3: actually announced it and they said, you know, this is

1608
01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:46,640
Speaker 3: our new segment called heads up Play of the Night,

1609
01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:49,040
Speaker 3: I thought, oh my god, I'm busted. I am so buffed.

1610
01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:51,879
Speaker 3: I am screwed. Yeah yeah, yeah, I am absolutely screwed.

1611
01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:54,240
Speaker 3: But nobody said a thing.

1612
01:13:55,320 --> 01:13:57,680
Speaker 2: Nobody even seemed to notice.

1613
01:13:57,760 --> 01:13:58,760
Speaker 3: It was crazy.

1614
01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:02,360
Speaker 2: It was so crazy because I just.

1615
01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:06,080
Speaker 3: I completely ripped this off, started doing it every night

1616
01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:09,680
Speaker 3: on our show, sticking out my thumbs and everything, you know,

1617
01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:12,960
Speaker 3: in advance of knowing this was coming. And when it happened,

1618
01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:15,439
Speaker 3: I was I was like, I'm gonna get caught in

1619
01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:17,840
Speaker 3: the office for sure here, and I didn't. I just

1620
01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:21,320
Speaker 3: got away with her. It was incredible. It was so incredible.

1621
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:24,240
Speaker 2: The original preestwerd.

1622
01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:26,680
Speaker 4: This.

1623
01:14:28,680 --> 01:14:31,799
Speaker 5: I am very impressed to how you committed to that, Bentley.

1624
01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:32,360
Speaker 6: That was great.

1625
01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:34,000
Speaker 7: That was very good.

1626
01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:37,560
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to somebody on the desk like, I

1627
01:14:37,560 --> 01:14:40,000
Speaker 2: hope it's our buddy and Joy Greenberg start dropping Movernie

1628
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:42,160
Speaker 2: references during the show.

1629
01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:48,520
Speaker 5: Wow wow, all right, and the last one. I apologize

1630
01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:52,360
Speaker 5: for this. I am definitely phoning this last one in

1631
01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:56,880
Speaker 5: break Out the Hummus, break Out the Uncooked Carrots. The

1632
01:14:57,000 --> 01:15:00,479
Speaker 5: super Bowl is this week, and Chiefs versus the Bucks?

1633
01:15:00,880 --> 01:15:03,400
Speaker 6: Who you got in the big Game, skeets.

1634
01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:07,479
Speaker 2: I like the Chiefs. Give me the over. I'm putting

1635
01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:11,599
Speaker 2: money on Brady and Mahomes to both throw over three

1636
01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:14,960
Speaker 2: hundred plus yards. Yeah, oh yeah, bad MGM. I think

1637
01:15:14,960 --> 01:15:18,599
Speaker 2: it's plus one sixty five, I said in an ad read. Yeah,

1638
01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:20,680
Speaker 2: I like the Chiefs. I like the Chiefs. I'm not

1639
01:15:20,760 --> 01:15:23,160
Speaker 2: cheering for Tom Brady. No thanks, Yeah, yeah, I.

1640
01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:24,400
Speaker 6: Understand that's gonna had task.

1641
01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:26,800
Speaker 7: That's funny. Did you say that an ad red Because

1642
01:15:26,800 --> 01:15:30,040
Speaker 7: I did as well. I said the exact same bet.

1643
01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:31,639
Speaker 7: So it's gonna win for sure.

1644
01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:34,000
Speaker 2: So we're gonna hit let's go great Rich, there you.

1645
01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:38,600
Speaker 7: Go, done, bad MGM. I'm cheering for Patrick Mahomes, so

1646
01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:41,400
Speaker 7: that's for sure. Okay, I'm cheering for Patrick Mahomes. Let's

1647
01:15:41,439 --> 01:15:46,400
Speaker 7: go Chiefs. Does he play for the Chiefs? Let's go Chiefs, Leley.

1648
01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:50,160
Speaker 3: I sort of want Tom Brady to win again just

1649
01:15:50,160 --> 01:15:53,679
Speaker 3: because It's like, I think it's sort of exposes Bill

1650
01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:55,760
Speaker 3: Bilichick as not being that great.

1651
01:15:57,040 --> 01:15:59,320
Speaker 2: What a spicy chief Like.

1652
01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:01,200
Speaker 3: The Patriots did even make the playoffs this year?

1653
01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:03,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, Oh got them?

1654
01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:04,200
Speaker 3: Did they? No?

1655
01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:04,760
Speaker 7: They did?

1656
01:16:05,240 --> 01:16:07,439
Speaker 3: And he goes to Tampa Bay, who, as far as

1657
01:16:07,479 --> 01:16:10,000
Speaker 3: I know, we're a bit of a sad sack franchise

1658
01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:13,200
Speaker 3: and they're probably gonna win? Are they favorite?

1659
01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,200
Speaker 4: It's a three point line on bad MGM right now

1660
01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:18,640
Speaker 4: for the Chiefs.

1661
01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:21,640
Speaker 7: And Tampa.

1662
01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:25,519
Speaker 3: But yeah, I sort of I don't love Tom Brady.

1663
01:16:25,560 --> 01:16:27,840
Speaker 3: I don't hate him either, so I'm sort of like

1664
01:16:27,920 --> 01:16:30,280
Speaker 3: it'd be great for him, you know, to go and

1665
01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:32,960
Speaker 3: win that Super Bowl and say, oh, yeah, so it

1666
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:34,040
Speaker 3: was all him? Who wasn't Bill?

1667
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:34,559
Speaker 2: Right?

1668
01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:35,439
Speaker 3: Big Bill?

1669
01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:38,799
Speaker 2: Are you excited about the halftime performance?

1670
01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:39,599
Speaker 3: Who's performing?

1671
01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:40,000
Speaker 7: Oh?

1672
01:16:40,040 --> 01:16:40,720
Speaker 2: You don't even know?

1673
01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:43,840
Speaker 7: No, even I know this is it?

1674
01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:44,599
Speaker 6: Is it the weekend?

1675
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:47,960
Speaker 2: That's right? Oh yeah, I guess he's not excited. He's

1676
01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:51,400
Speaker 2: Lee's apparently put seven million dollars of his own money

1677
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:52,120
Speaker 2: into the production.

1678
01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:56,320
Speaker 3: What a cheap organization. The NFL is, pay up, man.

1679
01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:59,400
Speaker 3: They make more money than anybody, and someone's got to

1680
01:16:59,439 --> 01:17:02,880
Speaker 3: pay to form at the Super Bowl. Well, oh my god.
