Speaker 3: Straight to YouTube. Yeah.

25
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 6: So uh yeah, we're gonna have to the only thing

26
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,960
Speaker 6: that's gonna we're gonna miss is that we can't put

27
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 6: up your comments, so we can read your comments. Okay, okay,

28
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 6: and uh Clipper Bros. Still trapped in streamyard, so we

29
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 6: may actually have to not do well. Let me we

30
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 6: I got time to figure it out. But yeah, it

31
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 6: should be fine, okay.

32
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and for those listening to the podcast, this is

33
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 2: like you won't even know what's going on here.

34
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 4: Yeah.

35
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe it's up a little later in your feed

36
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 2: than normal. But we did have some restarts when it

37
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 2: came to the to the stream streamyard slash YouTube.

38
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 3: We could turn YouTube comments on and be able to

39
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 3: put them on the stream like we did in the

40
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 3: old days.

41
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 4: But let's close this stream down started out.

42
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: Was when we were playing the first ad of the

43
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 2: show and it was you talking about Maple Waffle Magic Spoon.

44
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 4: You sounded very robotic, like a demon. Almost.

45
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, my ad raids are very professional. I'd like

46
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 7: to mix them up as well, though. I'd like to

47
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 7: create some sort of environment so the fans actually listen

48
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 7: and go out and buy magic Sman. You get five

49
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 7: dollars up right now magicsmod dot com slash no dunks

50
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,119
Speaker 7: And in fact, we've done it three times.

51
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 4: I was gonna start with mad Magic today.

52
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,440

63
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,639
Speaker 2: Nobody's wearing any today, but that's okay.

64
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 4: Do you feel weird wearing No Dunks Merch to the

65
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 4: Classic Factory. No, it's like a uniform, if anything. I

66
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 4: feel weird that I'm not wearing it, Okay, very one.

67
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 4: I was kind of like, is this like wearing a

68
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 4: band's T shirt to see them perform, because you don't

69
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 4: usually see a band wearing their own shirts when they're performing.

70
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 4: That's true, right, I mean, actually you do see it.

71
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 4: With the Grateful Debt a little bit. They'll wear a

72
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 4: tie die, but like, you don't see Scott's staff rocking

73
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 4: a Creed shirt when they're performing and he's got his

74
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 4: arms wide open. So I was a little hesitant. I

75
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 4: was like, am I gonna be able to wear a

76
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 4: No Dunk shirt in here? Like I would not wear

77
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 4: a shirt that says the Classic Factory If I'm sitting

78
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 4: right in front of the sign.

79
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 6: That Sat Jagger wore the Steel Wheels the Steel Wheels

80
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 6: shirt on stage for the Steel Wheels concert back in

81
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 6: eighty nine, I guess I have.

82
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 2: No problem doing it here in the Classic Factory a

83
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 2: live show, an All Star weekend or some other venue,

84
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 2: then I might hesitate to.

85
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 4: Wearing No Dunk.

86
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:11,839
Speaker 7: So I had a No Dunk's hoodie on the first

87
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 7: show any of the class great point, Yeah, I'll have

88
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 7: no problem wearing it.

89
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 6: Hey, we're selling T shirt, we're wearing them or so

90
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 6: I think that's why Mick was he put on the

91
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 6: worst one. So I bet they were like, hey, let's

92
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 6: get let's move these out of people were like I

93
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 6: literally heard people around me going I should have got

94
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 6: the one mix wearing and then they went up. So

95
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 6: it works, it works.

96
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 4: Well, what's our worst T shirt?

97
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 6: I'll be wearing it tomorrow.

98
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 3: Yeah shirt, let.

99
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,919
Speaker 4: Us know in the comments, what's our worst shirt. Yeah.

100
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 2: You can get your hoodies, your T shirts, your shorts,

101
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 2: your mugs, a bunch of stuff there at no Ducks

102
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,359
Speaker 2: dot Com. Okay, look, we wasted enough time here this morning.

103
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 2: Let's get into the games. We'll hit the beach later.

104
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 2: Let's start with Jahn Morant scoring twenty six. Grizzlies beat

105
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 2: the Calves for their sixth straight win. I thought this

106
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 2: was a really entertaining game, probably the best game of

107
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 2: the night. TK one are the big takeaways.

108
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 4: Shout out to Iron Eagle. Jaw Rules talks a lot

109
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:07,919
Speaker 4: about if this guy is the best point guard in

110
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 4: the league yesterday. The answer for me is still no.

111
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 4: But if you watch the last thirty seconds of Grizz Cads,

112
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,799
Speaker 4: you might be saying yeah. Jah finished with twenty six points,

113
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 4: five rebounds, six assists, two steals, and two blocks. But

114
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 4: that last thirty seconds was incredible hits, the hanging layup

115
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 4: over Mobley and Brandon Goodwin to go up two with

116
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 4: twenty nine seconds left. I don't know if his foot

117
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 4: touched the ground on the oh enough last week.

118
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 5: It happens almost every game with you.

119
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 4: The hangtime is crazy strength to get the ball up

120
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 4: to the rim and the touch to actually finished. That

121
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 4: was awesome. On the next play down, John gets a

122
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 4: steal and then it's enough a tough layup on the

123
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 4: fast break to go up four for the Grizzlies. A

124
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 4: little bit later, a couple of free throws to ice

125
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 4: it after another potential travel.

126
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 5: No potential, the one to get backward.

127
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, the old drag job. Nonetheless, that was awesome watching,

128
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 4: and like you're saying, Skeets, this was a really fun

129
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 4: game to watch, a really weird game to watch, if

130
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 4: I'm being quite honest. Three big guys on the court

131
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 4: for both teams almost the whole game, usually Adams Jackson

132
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 4: and Brandon Clark for the Grizzlies, Calves running out Jared Allen,

133
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 4: Evan Mobley, and then either one of Kevin Love or

134
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 4: Lowry Markinen. People are calling this a potential NBA Finals

135
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 4: preview for like twenty twenty four. The game will have

136
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 4: changed quite a bit if we're going with a six

137
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 4: big guys out of ten. But this was awesome to watch.

138
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 4: Jaw and Darius Garland basically going back and forth for

139
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 4: this whole game so totally lived up to the hype.

140
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 4: I don't know that I've ever been this hype for

141
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 4: a GRIZZLIESUS Calves game, but it totally paid off. Good

142
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 4: stuff last night.

143
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 3: It was wild that people were pumped on the internet

144
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 3: for a Grizzly Scavs game.

145
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 4: You said your wife was pumped watching this, Well, she.

146
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 3: Was mainly falling asleep. But the last five minutes, how

147
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 3: could you not be into it? She was owing and aweing.

148
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 3: Just a back and forth was great. And I assume

149
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 3: that people weren't necessarily watching forty eight minutes of Grizzlies Cavs,

150
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 3: you know, as casual fans rot the league. But yeah,

151
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 3: if you tune into the last few minutes, you saw

152
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 3: what Superstar Jaw is all about, both ends making it happen.

153
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 3: And I wonder if at some point the NBA is

154
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 3: going to start having to look at guys coming down

155
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 3: when they released the ball in their foot. It's not

156
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 3: it's not just job, but it's it seems like a

157
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 3: lot of guys when they get up there and yeah,

158
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 3: do they come down before they released it. I found

159
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 3: myself looking at a bunch of plays this year, like

160
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 3: did he come down? How the hell do you.

161
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 4: Got to though, if you're really trying to catch that,

162
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 4: Like like I was rewatching it this morning, trying to

163
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 4: get the perfect pause, and every time it would just

164
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 4: like frame out every time I was trying to see it.

165
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 4: So I don't I don't know if they were operating

166
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 4: with four K review monitors there and it's a caucus,

167
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 4: but it's impossible to tell because man, he was if

168
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 4: he got it off, which apparently he did, they didn't

169
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 4: call it.

170
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 5: That is so close you assume he gets it most

171
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 5: of the time.

172
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 7: I mean, it goes in his favor because it's very

173
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 7: rare that you see that call.

174
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 3: Mate.

175
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 7: Guys do come down, and it's like, if there's a

176
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 7: benefit of doubt, it usually goes with the guy who

177
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 7: shoots the ball. But that's what he did against the

178
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 7: Suns in that game, exactly the same thing. Basically goes

179
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 7: in and he just hangs in the air. He almost

180
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 7: waits for the jumper to sort of come down, and

181
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 7: then he releases it up. But that's just one of

182
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 7: the moves he's gotten. So it's you know, it's great

183
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 7: for him because he's winning games for a team and

184
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 7: this Actually, I just want to go back to one

185
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 7: other thing too with this game. This is the second

186
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 7: night of back to back of course here for the Grizzlies,

187
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 7: and I thought, even though you mentioned a lot of

188
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 7: big men out there, I thought the Cavs in the

189
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 7: first half half had a really strong advantage with Mobiley

190
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 7: and Jared Allen, especially in the pick and roll. Garland

191
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 7: would just throwing lives and Jared Allen was really dominant.

192
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 7: And in that second half, Alan and Mobley only combined

193
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 7: for fifteen points. I think that was a big change

194
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 7: in the game. I thought Brandon Clark did a much

195
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 7: better job defensively, because we know Jared Jackson is technically

196
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 7: a big, but he's not a great rim protecting sort

197
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 7: of defensive big. I thought that was a key sort

198
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,839
Speaker 7: of change here that Brandon Clark, and then also offensively,

199
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 7: Brandon Clarke was a.

200
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 5: Lot more active.

201
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 7: So that's where I think the game was decided there

202
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,079
Speaker 7: because it was the last three minutes that first half.

203
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 7: As eleven point lead, the Cavs looked like they were

204
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 7: in control. Couldn't close out that first half. And then

205
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 7: Brad Jones, who was filling in for Taylor Jenkins there,

206
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 7: I think made that adjustment and it had affected the

207
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 7: second half.

208
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Brad Jones, I had no idea he was

209
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 3: filling in for Teler Jenkins, but that was a sweet

210
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,440
Speaker 3: play call to get John Moran on the move and

211
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 3: get that Caves defense that is so fricking good moving.

212
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 3: And then Mobley had a lane, and yeah, I say

213
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 3: Mobiley had Alane Moran had a lane.

214
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,079
Speaker 4: Because as because we just saw mobile.

215
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, because I was sating as mad. No, because

216
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 3: I think if you're it's probably because like every defender,

217
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 3: if you're going into the Cavs, you're thinking Mobile's coming.

218
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 3: I was thinking about Mobiley coming if I'm Moran, uh

219
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 3: to go into that lane. But Mobley doesn't have the

220
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 3: hangtime of John Moran. It just that was he had

221
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 3: a just enough space and you just you have faith

222
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 3: in the shooter. I think that if you play basketball,

223
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 3: that you're gonna let the ball go before your toe

224
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 3: touches the ground, right, Like that's just like a thing

225
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 3: you do, so you kind of it's be hard to call.

226
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 3: It's hard to call, but but I feel like it

227
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,199
Speaker 3: came down and I don't know, it feels like guys

228
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 3: are just they're just pushing the boundaries. That's what it

229
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 3: feels like to me.

230
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 4: Pushing the boundaries with those floppers. Yeah, I mean you're

231
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 4: never gonna I feel like that call is never gonna

232
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 4: be called. Yeah, somebody coming down and their foot barely

233
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 4: touching before they get it off because what referees looking

234
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 4: at their feet? Yeah, yeah, you should be calling the

235
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 4: files up top off anything. But uh, that was fun

236
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 4: to see fifty eight points in the paint though. For

237
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 4: the Grizzlies playing against a gigantic lineup, that was pretty cool.

238
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 4: Speaking of four K cameras, just spit out of four

239
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 4: K spin bubble right there. Calves that lost four of

240
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 4: five and their next six are on the road. I

241
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 4: actually think they win that game last night if Ricky

242
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 4: Rubio is playing for a couple of reasons. Number one,

243
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 4: he's taller than Goodwin is on that first job Morant

244
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 4: lay up, and number two, no way he turns the

245
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 4: ball over like Goodwin did trying to pass the ball

246
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,839
Speaker 4: over to Garland there on the wing. That was a

247
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 4: pretty bad pass. So I think if you get a

248
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 4: little bit more size and a little bit more veteran savvy,

249
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,839
Speaker 4: probably take the w If you're Cleveland.

250
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 3: And since I asked for that mobiley clip, let me

251
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 3: talk about Mobiley here for a sec. I think if

252
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 3: there's any knock on Evan Mobley in this Rookie of

253
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 3: the Year race, it's another guy score more there. He

254
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 3: is actually fifth in scoring amongst rookies, which is surprising,

255
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 3: but I think he's gotten better. He was out with

256
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 3: the hell the safe protocols, and he came back. His

257
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 3: last five he's averaging twenty points on sixty percent shooting,

258
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 3: and if you're looking at the types of shots he's getting,

259
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 3: he looks like a seasoned vet now, like a big

260
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 3: that just can back down anybody and turn around and

261
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 3: hit shots over guys. He dunked on Miles Turner in

262
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 3: his five games. Since he's returned, he's doing a lot

263
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 3: of stuff. And he had that up and under beauty

264
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 3: scoop shot that the NBA put into a little medley

265
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 3: on their Instagram page with other greats of the game

266
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 3: with Steph Curry, with Kevin Durant, with Clyde Drexler, and

267
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 3: you see kuz gives him a high five after this

268
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 3: one because it's such a beauty play, and Kuzma was

269
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 3: asked about it after he said, of course I'm going

270
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 3: to high fight the guy after and up and under

271
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 3: like that. I just saw George Gervin in the fleshy

272
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 3: Kuzma bringing back the George Gervin, the iceman up and under.

273
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 3: But I think Mobile got better. He's he's wise beyond

274
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 3: his ears. He said when he sat out that he

275
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 3: learned a lot of things, and that he said, I

276
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 3: always knew I could do these type of things. More

277
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 3: of a mental mindset. I feel like your mindset is

278
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 3: definitely one of the main things that excel you or

279
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 3: declined you.

280
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 5: Wow.

281
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 3: And over the COVID break, I feel like I got

282
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 3: time to think about it and watch the games at

283
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 3: home and stuff and I like and stuff like that,

284
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 3: and so I feel that helped me. And we saw

285
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 3: the defense he had in this game. I think I

286
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 3: think that if he's getting better, and yeah, putting him

287
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 3: at the NBA is putting him in these little montages

288
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 3: with the greats. I believe in this guy. I believe

289
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 3: he's not gonna let go of the Rookie of the

290
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 3: Year race.

291
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 2: One thing from this game that I took away from was,

292
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 2: like we learned the last week that John rad is

293
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 2: guaranteed to be an All Star, and as being said,

294
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 2: maybe he's the best point in the league. We talked

295
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 2: on yesterday the show, but I'm still confused with the

296
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 2: Cavaliers and who their All Star is. And nothing was

297
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 2: like helped out in this game for me because you know, Rubio,

298
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 2: that was your prediction at the start of the season,

299
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 2: a crazy call from Tasks. You know he's out now,

300
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 2: so he's not even gonna be in consideration and he

301
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 2: probably was never gonna make it as it was, but

302
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 2: he was great for them. But it's like, is it

303
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 2: Garland or is it Jared Allen? Because both of those

304
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 2: guys you certainly and the way they play together, like

305
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 2: the high pick and roll. I mean, it's a dangerous combo.

306
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,319
Speaker 2: I'm not sure which one. I think it's gonna be

307
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 2: Jared Allen just because there's so many guards that are

308
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 2: gonna get consideration when it comes to picking our teams.

309
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 2: So we might do that on Friday's Drop podcast, by

310
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 2: the way, make our first pass at our all Star teams.

311
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: So I do think it's Jared Allen, but man Garland

312
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 2: is like just as important to the Cavs successor.

313
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 7: I think so yeah, I don't think they get too

314
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 7: but I'm going with Jared Allen as well. He's put

315
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 7: up really solid numbers this year, seventeen and ten right now,

316
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 7: shooting the ball well, and it's just been fantastic. I mean,

317
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 7: he really has been so important to what they do

318
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 7: at both ends.

319
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 5: Of the floor.

320
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 7: And it's also like the Calves, no one really expect

321
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 7: him to be in this position, so for them to

322
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 7: sort of vault in and already get two straight uway

323
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 7: is unlikely. Garland has been very, very good, and you

324
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 7: just saw the impact he had last Night's only just returned,

325
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 7: you know, hit some shots, making some play as well.

326
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 5: And JB.

327
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 7: Bigger Staff talks about alfter the game just how important

328
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 7: it is, because this is why they traded for Rondo.

329
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 7: They just need someone in the back court. Didn't really

330
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 7: get that from Goodwin. Of course, Garland can shoot.

331
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 4: You can spare no other guy that can create.

332
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 2: When Rubio is now out of this line up and

333
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 2: Sexton is out of this line up, there's nobody that

334
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 2: can really generate the place besides Garland. I mean, Love

335
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 2: is playing well. He's he's contributing on the boards and

336
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 2: shooting threes. Like you said, Alan and Mobili, but like

337
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 2: they're not. You can't give him the ball and say

338
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 2: go make something happen here or set something up for

339
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 2: somebody else.

340
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 3: That's Garland. I think as much as I've buried this

341
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 3: point and talked it into the ground, I think the

342
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 3: resiliency of the Cavs is fricking impressive. They've lost two

343
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 3: of their top three guards this season. Colin Sexton was

344
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 3: the leading scorer when he was out. Ricky Rubio you know,

345
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 3: was their leading sort of guard at the end of

346
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 3: games along with Darius Garland. They're both out for this season.

347
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 3: They're front line, all three guys in marketing, Alan and

348
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 3: Mobiley about a quarter of the games and Korro's out now,

349
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 3: Kevin Love missed the quarter of the games. Jeddi Osman

350
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 3: has been out, Dari Scarland was just out for a

351
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 3: good chunky games, And yeah, they're one in three without

352
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 3: him because they need guard play. Obviously, if you lose

353
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 3: your top three guards with him, Sexton and Rubio, you're

354
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 3: not gonna be great. And so yeah, they're desperate. I

355
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 3: think Brandon Goodwin has been good to fill in as

356
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 3: a backup guard. I think he's found himself a job.

357
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 3: But yeah, the other guys, you know, Kevin Pangos didn't

358
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 3: produce Garland and John Morant in that all ponytail matchup.

359
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 3: I mean, as you said, this could be twenty twenty

360
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 3: four's NBA Final. Perhaps those two dudes I think everybody

361
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 3: believes in. You know, they're Moran's on a different level

362
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 3: than Garland. But Garland he's got it too, man, He's

363
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 3: got everything in his bag.

364
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 4: I want to address a tweet we got. I guess

365
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 4: I got sort of last night. I guess it was

366
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 4: to the now Ducks account from DC the Snapper. I

367
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 4: listened to the podcast and anytime someone mentions Desmond Bane

368
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 4: as most improved player, Skeet says with disgust, second year player.

369
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 4: Can someone explain the rule amongst voters for not voting

370
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 4: for a second year player for MIP. Secondly, why is

371
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 4: it even a rule at all? Okay, well, it's not

372
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 4: a rule. It's not an official rule. It's my rule.

373
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 2: It's turned into a running bit at this point a

374
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 2: good decade plus of me getting upset that a second

375
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 2: year player is warranning consideration for for most Improved. The

376
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 2: point I always make is a second year player's progression

377
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 2: is to be expected, especially when they're young, like nineteen

378
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 2: twenty year old's like, yeah, they're going to improve being

379
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 2: in the league. And I love Desmonby. This is a

380
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 2: knock against him or all these other guys that have

381
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 2: improved in the second year. I just think it's I

382
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 2: think it gets a little silly, and the voters, for

383
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 2: whatever reason, over the last I don't know, like fifteen years,

384
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 2: have also felt that way because it it used to

385
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 2: go to guys that were in their second year. The

386
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 2: last though is like Monte Ellis back in like five

387
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 2: oh six as a second year player. So I just

388
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: think it's like some people want to go even further

389
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 2: with it and say you can't win MIP if you're

390
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 2: under the age of like twenty three, twenty four.

391
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 4: I don't go that far. I think a second.

392
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,439
Speaker 2: Player is obviously going to get more opportunity. They've been

393
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,679
Speaker 2: in the league, around the team, around these you know,

394
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 2: the coaching staffs and stuff like that, they're going to improve.

395
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 2: So I just like to take him out of the equation.

396
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 2: But he's awesome. He's been amazing, even though he got

397
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 2: somehow blocked by Mobile on a close out that he

398
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 2: was on the ground.

399
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 3: He just put his hand Upble was an incredible close

400
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 3: up for a seven foot But I agree second year

401
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 3: players are going to get better. I totally agree.

402
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 4: Don't. It's a problem, right, least improved player if you

403
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 4: don't improve it your second year. Here's the last thing

404
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 4: I'll say about the Calves. I think Dylan Windler looks

405
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 4: more like a Dean Wade and Dean Wade looks more

406
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 4: like a Dylan Windler. Maybe they should think about trading names. Wow,

407
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 4: I don't.

408
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 3: I think it would help.

409
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 4: I think it would help Dylan the Windler like he

410
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 4: would look like a cool Dean, whereas Dean Wade looks

411
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 4: like a dickhead Dean.

412
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 2: Right, Okay, just my thoughts, just a fact check myself.

413
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 4: Montale's six o seven.

414
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 3: I'll let you off.

415
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 2: Okay, do you want to do a crazy trivia? Can

416
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,880
Speaker 2: you name some of the other sophomore year m i

417
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 2: P winners? So second year it's tough, and it's all

418
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,439
Speaker 2: prior to Montelis.

419
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 5: Okay, you know these names, but yeah, good luck.

420
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 2: You have to not only know most Improved, no, no, uh,

421
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 2: you have to know who won the m i P

422
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:19,120
Speaker 2: and that they.

423
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 4: Were a second year.

424
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 3: They want it, Darryl Armstrong, I'll just give you the list.

425
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 2: Gilbert Arenas, okay, yes, and then some then it gets

426
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 2: like pretty well like you know these names, but older

427
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 2: guys Elvin Robertson apparently, Kevin Johnson, Kevin duckborcyc and Don

428
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 2: McClain and his American pie.

429
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 3: So there you go.

430
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 5: Eric.

431
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 3: Ronnie was good on the ones and the twos, the

432
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 3: year one and the year two.

433
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 4: I haven't had a good running joke.

434
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 3: Yeah's good to mix it.

435
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 2: Up nice like uh, spinning from the Windler Windler to

436
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 2: Ronnie's side.

437
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of people know that inside joke a

438
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 3: little bit. Definitely spins it though.

439
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 2: Anything else from Cavs Grizzlies or do you want to

440
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,199
Speaker 2: just like save all of our thoughts on it for

441
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty fourth and say we'll save it.

442
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 4: Let's keep going. Then Lebron and Monk lead the Lakers

443
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 4: late rally past the Kings. Was the final scorer.

444
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 3: Tests well, yes, the Lebron show at the end in

445
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter and absolute delight him yelling at the

446
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 3: King's bench, us watching Lebron here, yeah and your thirty Yeah,

447
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 3: you're thirty cent of his life. As we say, you're

448
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,360
Speaker 3: thirty seven of his career, it feels like it. Yeah,

449
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 3: he's been around, he's doing it. Amazing stuff Westbrook, his

450
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 3: first game without a turnover and over five years, great

451
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 3: stuff there. So it all looks great when we're reading

452
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 3: the headlines, we're reading the stories. But it took a

453
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,679
Speaker 3: lot to beat the Sacramento Kings at home. And I

454
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 3: think that's, you know, the thing that we forget about

455
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 3: here that the Lakers are struggling defensively. They gave up

456
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 3: fifty percent from the floor from the three for the

457
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 3: Sacramento Kings. I think the good thing for the Lakers, though,

458
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,959
Speaker 3: is Malik Monk has really come around in the offseason

459
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 3: when they were letting go everybody from their team that

460
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 3: won the championship, everybody that could help out the young

461
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 3: guys and Kuzma, the depth as well with Cacp and

462
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,719
Speaker 3: Harrel and Caruso. The one guy that seems like they

463
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,679
Speaker 3: sort of recovered with was Malik Monk. This guy entering

464
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 3: his quote unquote prime had some big games last year

465
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 3: with the Charlotte Hornets, and maybe he could do that

466
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 3: for the Lakers, And right now he entered the starting lineup,

467
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,919
Speaker 3: and he has produced his last six He's gone twenty points,

468
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 3: twenty five, fifteen, eighteen, twenty two and twenty four last night,

469
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 3: big thing eleven in the fourth quarter to really help

470
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 3: out Lebron to finish this game. And maybe it's because

471
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 3: he's got no tattoos on his shooting arm. Because Nick

472
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 3: Young was asked about this. Dave mcmanman said, Hey, Nick Young,

473
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 3: what do you think about mister Monk going without tattoos

474
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 3: on his shooting arm. He bans them from his shooting arm.

475
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 3: Nick Young said, I'm mister Miag and he's LaRusso the

476
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 3: power of the note tatt on the right arm is

477
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 3: like wax on wax off for buckets. I don't know

478
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 3: what Nick Young is saying, but I wanted to include

479
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 3: that because, Yeah, I guess people are lumping Nick Young

480
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 3: and Malik Monk into that similar you know, six man

481
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 3: always going to shoot type of mindset, and I guess

482
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 3: they don't have tattoos on their right now.

483
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, Young didn't have tattoos on his shooting arm, though

484
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 2: I thought I saw reports that he added.

485
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 4: So yeah, I think he did twice the end of

486
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,880
Speaker 4: his career. But I think Monk's quote was that when

487
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,400
Speaker 4: he was seventeen, he heard Nick Young say he doesn't

488
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 4: get tattoos on his right arm because it's strictly for buckets.

489
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 4: So he started doing that as well, and he kind

490
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 4: of has followed in Nick Young's footsteps a little bit.

491
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 4: Nick Young was always pitched as a guy who could

492
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 4: win the dunk contest and three point contest. Obviously it

493
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 4: never happens. Same with Malik Monk, And like you said, Test,

494
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 4: he's been balling lately, double digits in ten of his

495
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 4: last fourteen games, even better in the last six twenty

496
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 4: twenty five, fifteen, eighteen, twenty two and twenty four last night.

497
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,120
Speaker 4: He's the only guard on the Lakers who can do

498
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 4: two things. Taylor Horton Tucker, he can drive every bout

499
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 4: Bradley sometimes, he can shoot. Wen Ellington, he can shoot.

500
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 4: Malik Monk can actually dribble the ball and hit a

501
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 4: wide open three pointer. He had a lot of wide

502
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 4: open threes last night. But if he's playing well, if

503
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 4: he's on a hot streak, a Nick Young lake Hart streak,

504
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 4: the Lakers at least have somebody else who can take

505
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 4: a little bit of responsibility for Lebron.

506
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 7: They've got so many old guys a Lakers. They need

507
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 7: these younger guys because Taylor and Horton Tucker did have

508
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 7: a good game last night. They need those guys to

509
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 7: produce because when Lebron, who has been playing great himself,

510
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 7: is carrying them like that, they just don't need him

511
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 7: to do that at this stage of the season. Dwight

512
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 7: actually had a good game for them to another old

513
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 7: guy coming off the bench there. So the Lakers fought

514
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 7: for this one. They grinded, they got the victory. Not

515
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 7: super convincing, but I think good signs for them that

516
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 7: Taylor Horton Tucker final hit a three. Hadn't been able

517
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 7: to do that for a while. And as you guys

518
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 7: mentioned them, Malik Munk giving them that production offensively, which

519
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 7: is what they desperately.

520
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 5: Need from somebody else. You know.

521
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,439
Speaker 7: You know, Westbrook's still going to get his and he

522
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 7: didn't turn it over last night, but they need these

523
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 7: the guy's contributing.

524
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 4: It didn't turn it over as a team yes night.

525
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 4: It wasn't just Westbrook, which I know gets all the

526
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,360
Speaker 4: headlines like, well he hasn't done that a long time,

527
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,120
Speaker 4: but yeah, five total and I think Lebron Todd was like, yeah,

528
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 4: we're not.

529
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 2: If we we're gonna have a chance to win the game,

530
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 2: we don't just keep tanning the ball over to the

531
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:14,360
Speaker 2: other team.

532
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 3: Still close though.

533
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 2: It was, I mean Lebron took over and yeah, like

534
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 2: you said, is uh dropping Uh, I'm still a motherfucking problem, basically,

535
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 2: I guess Tristan Thompson maybe specifically, but to the King's

536
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,399
Speaker 2: bench on the side there after he blew by Jones

537
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 2: and got it in at the rim.

538
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 4: Why are you laughing at that?

539
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 5: What was he picking on? Tristan?

540
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,639
Speaker 4: I mean their old buds. I assume he was in

541
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 4: his direction there.

542
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 5: We'd uh little call as well.

543
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 7: At the end there off the miss free throw with

544
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 7: the bit oh yeah, seconds to go the ball. The

545
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 7: King's had the ball, but the clock had already started

546
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 7: before they picked it up, hanging up.

547
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, the free throws missed, Fox doing the hole like

548
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 4: I'm not going to grab the ball yet to start

549
00:23:56,280 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 4: the clock, doesn't touch it. They start the clock. He realized,

550
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 4: is it right away? He says, well, well, I haven't

551
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 4: touched it.

552
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then the rest like okay, hold on, everybod

553
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 2: guess together they have a long, long.

554
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 4: Talk about it because they're trying to figure out I

555
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:10,360
Speaker 4: guess what do we do?

556
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, because originally they just said Kings ball out of bounce.

557
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 2: Right, But that's not the rules, not technically the rule

558
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 2: because they didn't have possession of the ball. Because it's

559
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 2: silly because it was going to be the King's ball,

560
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 2: because all the Lakers have gone back on defense. But

561
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 2: you're right by by the letter of the law. It

562
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 2: was like, well, I guess we have to jump it up,

563
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 2: and Elvin Gentries going, yeah.

564
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 7: It's not crazy at the refs, just the rule because

565
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 7: they're very dumb. Because the Kings, the Kings lose a

566
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 7: jump ball in any chance of maybe closing in a possesion,

567
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 7: then this.

568
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 3: Rule is fixed. It happened with the Chauncey billups against

569
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 3: the Magic Piston's magic like eight billion years ago. Why

570
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 3: wouldn't you just give the ball?

571
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that's rule.

572
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 7: Should the Lakers as well, should just be like you

573
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 7: know what I mean, because it wasn't like a contestant possession.

574
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 5: It's better for the spirit of the game to just say,

575
00:24:58,600 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 5: all right, yeah, you got so.

576
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 2: You would have liked Vogel and the Lakers to be

577
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 2: just put the put the clock back what it was when.

578
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 7: It gives the ball, because it's a dumb thing. But

579
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 7: I know, you know, winning means so.

580
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 3: Much to everyone.

581
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 5: You've gotta win and take every chance. But the Kings

582
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 5: didn't do anything wrong.

583
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 7: That's the that's the thing if they had made the mistake,

584
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 7: but it was the scores, you know, the timekeepers who started.

585
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 7: So it's you know, beyond the King's era. So in

586
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 7: that case, it should go back to the Kings. They

587
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 7: should just get clean possession of.

588
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 4: The ball on the table.

589
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,399
Speaker 5: It's just bothering me. Was the hair or something?

590
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 4: Maybe it was one of our spits.

591
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 2: Well, the silly part was it's like like fox not

592
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 2: touching it, hoping again. I guess that the ball is

593
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 2: magically going to go a little bit like into the

594
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 2: front court, which.

595
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 4: It's sort of. I guess it was bouncing the tiniest

596
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 4: bit towards the to the hoop.

597
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 3: Well, we have jump ball problems in this league. Even

598
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 3: wedgies become jump balls when we know it's who's the

599
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 3: ball is going to after wards, usually like the rebounders

600
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 3: right there, and then you just lose. You lose possession

601
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 3: of the ball.

602
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 4: Why so you think if I'm playing against you and

603
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 4: I stick a edgie.

604
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 3: And I'm ready to receive that rebound, you don't know

605
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 3: where that ball's going. Yeah, I do. It's just got wedge.

606
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 3: It's gonna go straight down.

607
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,120
Speaker 2: Interesting, I hadn't thought about that. So you don't want

608
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 2: even a jump all for a way.

609
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 3: Well, let's say, let's say, yeah, that's the thing. You

610
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 3: you shoot a three three point shot, right, We've got

611
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 3: five rebounders underneath wedge. I'm going to get the ball.

612
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 3: But now all of a sudden it's a jump ball.

613
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, but what if I don't hit it on?

614
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 2: What if I don't hit the rim an air ball

615
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 2: that always goes to the offensive player, feels like.

616
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 3: It would have gone out of bounds.

617
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 2: I think you gotta keep it for a wedge. But

618
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 2: this situation, this was I'm sort of with lee. They

619
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,479
Speaker 2: watched them and grabbed it. They didn't have possession yet,

620
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 2: So why would they get possession? Well because they because

621
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 2: it seemed like they were going to get If you

622
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 2: want possession, take it.

623
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,239
Speaker 7: Yeah, but that grab it. The home time keeper is

624
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 7: a little too quick on the trig out. They should

625
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 7: be paying attention that because they know it.

626
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 2: Was in Sacramento, so you can't say, no, it was sorry,

627
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 2: I mean California.

628
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 3: Maybe it's different.

629
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 4: We don't know where that's running the clot it.

630
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 7: Just say it just seems unfair that the Kings didn't

631
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:17,439
Speaker 7: at least get positioned out of it.

632
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 3: That's all.

633
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 5: Of course, they still lost the game, and they probably

634
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 5: would have lost.

635
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 4: They probably were going to still lose the game.

636
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 2: Up with you on that because it was it was fun,

637
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,879
Speaker 2: I believe. Yeah, let's keep it going. Then Van Vliet

638
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 2: top thirty for the third straight game. Raptors crushed the Spurs.

639
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 2: Ah yeah, well yeah, god that.

640
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,120
Speaker 3: The Raptors are who we thought they were good.

641
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:38,199
Speaker 4: They're back good.

642
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 3: They're good. They're good. They got a bunch of guys

643
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 3: who can rely on each other as the number one guy.

644
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 3: You know, they don't have a number one guy. But

645
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 3: when Pascal Siakam, especially, it starts to play like this.

646
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 3: He's playing like not not not a number one that

647
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,400
Speaker 3: people anointed him as, or we're wondering whether he would

648
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 3: be that after the Kawhi Leonard run. But his last

649
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 3: five some while numbers twenty three points over eleven boards.

650
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 3: This guy Pascalia can getting at eleven point four rebounds,

651
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 3: six assists, block and steel. That's that's who he should be.

652
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 3: Give him the ball. Doubles come and then Freddy as

653
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 3: he mentioned, can play off the ball a little bit.

654
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 3: So there's a couple guys that are just good enough.

655
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 3: This is not a championship team, but they're good enough

656
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 3: to take some pressure off each other and then we

657
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 3: can see how good this team is. It just took

658
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 3: some months here and now they're five hundred, and that's

659
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,159
Speaker 3: not a bad thing, especially in the Eastern Conference. To

660
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 3: be number one, five hundred, I mean, that's an accomplishment,

661
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 3: I think, but number two. To just see who they

662
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 3: are at this point with the way the Eastern Conference

663
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 3: standings are breaking down, you know, they got a better

664
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 3: record than a lot of teams that we didn't expect

665
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 3: them to be better than the Nicks and the Celtics

666
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 3: and so Hawks at this point. Yeah, so listen, there's

667
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 3: just a bunch of good things with this team. Now.

668
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 3: It's like a basketball fans wet dream to look at

669
00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:01,239
Speaker 3: Pascal siakam ogn Andobi and Scottie Barnes as you're three, four, five, six,

670
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 3: nine guys those are your That's who they're playing is

671
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 3: with three four five with Fred and Gary Trent in

672
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 3: the backcourt, and Fred is benefiting from guys like Pascal

673
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 3: and Barnes being able to pick up the pace bring

674
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 3: the ball up and Fred is hanging out five six

675
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 3: feet behind the three point line and just banging them. Well,

676
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 3: we had seven triples last night, thirty straight in three games.

677
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 3: And I know we're gonna talk about Freddy Allstar. We're

678
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 3: gonna talk about him as a potential All Star recipient.

679
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 3: And our man Eric Kareen talked about it at on

680
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 3: the Athletic Today. It's possible Trey sac Lavine, Tomato Rosen

681
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 3: locks probably hard in the lock as well. That's four guys,

682
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 3: and then then he's at Fred's in the category with

683
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 3: the Jalen Browns and the Bradley Beals. But there's as

684
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 3: a fifth or sixth guard on the team. It's definitely doable.

685
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 3: Kareein put it as only the Rappers can hold him

686
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 3: back with their record, and I think that's true. If

687
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 3: they're you know, five six seven games about five hundred,

688
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 3: they probably get one. It's gonna be Fred. But if not,

689
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 3: then it's probably going to go to Jaylen Brown or

690
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 3: Bradley Beal or somebody like that. But Fred has been

691
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 3: ridiculous since Pascal has come along and taken the pressure

692
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 3: off him, and he talked about a preseason he said,

693
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 3: Kyle Lowry is gone. Now I have a chemistry with

694
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 3: Pascal Siakam. We can make this happen now that Kyle

695
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 3: has gone. But they haven't had a chance to work it.

696
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 3: So that's why I believe they are who he thought

697
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 3: they were. What does that mean? I don't know, but

698
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:27,719
Speaker 3: something like yeah, well yeah, yeah, yeah, where's the playoff

699
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 3: team in top six?

700
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 4: Now? The play in tournament's a playoff team? I see, no, no, no, no,

701
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 4: So you think they're going to get the top six

702
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 4: that scene?

703
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 2: I think if they're healthy, they're possibly in that mix. Yeah,

704
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 2: because because the Hawks and the Knicks are disappointing right now.

705
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 4: For sure, they're bumps laying right now ten and six

706
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 4: versus under five hundred teams, and all the teams they

707
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 4: beat on these three it's the Clippers without Paul George,

708
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 4: the next without Julius Randall, and the Spurs without Tim Duncans.

709
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 4: So beat some good teams. They got some good teams

710
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 4: coming up on the schedule next, and yeah, I think

711
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 4: Freddie All Star, he definitely has a chance. They play

712
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 4: the Bucks in Milwaukee tonight, where Freddy Alstar was born.

713
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 2: Some saying yeah again, I think we're going to be

714
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 2: doing that on Friday's Strop podcast making our picks.

715
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 4: Will you have him in consideration conversation.

716
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 7: Strong consideration, Yes, Matt Devlin, he sticks to his guns

717
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 7: too with a Freddie All Star. I think he's probably

718
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 7: seen a few of the quotes and critiques online, but

719
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 7: he yes, stays true to it. But no, I think

720
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 7: Freddy has been He's definitely in the I think he's

721
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 7: probably in the way he's been playing lately. And I

722
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 7: think the Raptors do get one. I think Pascal he

723
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 7: started off the season pretty slowly, but has definitely.

724
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 5: Started together there. And just look with Og they're back

725
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 5: as well.

726
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 4: The Raptors.

727
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 7: I don't think you have anyone in protocol right now,

728
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 7: so they should be able to beat these teams, especially

729
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 7: no Degonte Murray there last night for the Spurs, those

730
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 7: other shorthanded teams, they're at home. It is weird when

731
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 7: you see all these games in the United States and

732
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 7: then you go to Canada and it's completely empty empty. Yeah,

733
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 7: so different there, But that's it. I think the Raptors,

734
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 7: I mean they're not in a rebuilt mode right now.

735
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 7: They're in like, Okay, we've got to get into the

736
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 7: playoffs and then if everyone's healthy like that he's with

737
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 7: every team, there are a chance to close some problems.

738
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, for the third straight game, only family and friends

739
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 2: of the players were allowed inside the arena. But yeah,

740
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 2: looking very, very sparse, which was unfortunate for Toronto native

741
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 2: Josh Primo, who plays for the Spurs. He was expected

742
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 2: to have like hundreds of his friends and family there

743
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 2: for his first professional game in Canada, and in the end,

744
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 2: I think he had to reduce it to about twenty.

745
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 2: They were saying a bad number. Still, yeah, he got some,

746
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 2: he got some, Bernie. He had a pretty good game

747
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 2: as a he's very young, is he He's like just

748
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 2: turned nineteen. I think at the face, I think he

749
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 2: turned nineteen at the end of December. He might be

750
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 2: one of the younger guys in the league.

751
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 3: So yeah, they play him a little Welcome back to

752
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 3: Canada video the Team Canada video because he played for

753
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 3: Team Canada and he wants to play for and he

754
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 3: says he wants to be part of the Olympics team.

755
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 3: That's gotta be good for Nick Nurse, who is the

756
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 3: head coach. He's got to be pumped about that. Josh

757
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 3: Primo Saga stand up. Yeah he's from Saga.

758
00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, right right, yeah, yeah, I said Toronto native.

759
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 2: I'm putting that one on the Associated Press.

760
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure that's the same. I think Josh Prima.

761
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 3: What a name.

762
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 2: Oh, it's a good name. They're also speaking of good names.

763
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 2: I think it was Alex uh from the William lu Show,

764
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 2: is what I'm trying to say. Yeah, Alex Loong, thank you.

765
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 2: I can think of his last name. I always want

766
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 2: to call him Stephen Lebroad.

767
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 4: But Alex Long.

768
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 2: They're calling the Scotia Bank Arena Scotia Blank Arena when

769
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 2: there's no fans in there.

770
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, what do you think of that?

771
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 4: Yeah?

772
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 7: I saw miss Jerry sitting in the stand the other day.

773
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 7: I was gonna sort of meme something like that in

774
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 7: me when I talk cricket with the night Ounk's crew.

775
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 7: That's how it feels, you know, like you just it

776
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 7: is nice, yeah, ye.

777
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 5: By yourself, you know, in a bit of an island.

778
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 3: But uh yeah, yeah, it's cool talking about memes.

779
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 4: Games to talk about. You know, we can talk a

780
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 4: lot about memes if you want. R J.

781
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 2: Barrett thirty two, Julius rand A had a big return

782
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 2: as the Knicks beat the Pacers. You you can have

783
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 2: this one. This I can't stand watching. Yeah, Knicks fans

784
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 2: are happy because Barrett had an ask some first half and.

785
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 7: The rare comfortable home victory for the New York Nicks

786
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 7: where they're entire starting five except for Evanfornier, who did

787
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,279
Speaker 7: have a stinker, finished with a positive plus minus. That's

788
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 7: something that's been a real problem here for the Knicks

789
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:23,359
Speaker 7: this season. They start off to game slowly and their

790
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 7: bench has to come in and save. And that wasn't

791
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 7: really the case last night. Because you mentioned RJ. Barrett,

792
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 7: he's eltiso. I'm putting him on that team. I think

793
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 7: at times he looks fantastic out there. He can shoot

794
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 7: the three, he can get to the rim, he can

795
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 7: use his body, you can get inside. You just don't

796
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:39,839
Speaker 7: see it enough, and it certainly hasn't been the case

797
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,839
Speaker 7: this season. And then Julius randal As also you mentioned

798
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 7: they're back from protocols. Big third quarter. It was, you know,

799
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,919
Speaker 7: still a close enough game here. And what we've seen

800
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 7: from the Knicks this season, especially at home, they go

801
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 7: through a phase where either they dry up scoring or

802
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 7: they can't defend. It wasn't the case last night. Manual

803
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 7: quickly came off the bench. He gave him a bit

804
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,359
Speaker 7: of the spark. They got contributions. Mitchell Robinson coming off

805
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 7: the bench as well. I thought he was good there

806
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 7: last night. And then they closed out the game. That's

807
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 7: just not something that the Knicks have been able to do.

808
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 7: So very good sign there against the team that's missing

809
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 7: Malcolm Brogden. But other than that, they did have some

810
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 7: Bonus and Turner there too, you know, all star.

811
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, he had a huge dunk. Boy, Yeah, I think

812
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:21,399
Speaker 5: that was all he did.

813
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,360
Speaker 7: That pretty much was all he did. And talk about

814
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,280
Speaker 7: ten day call up guys with great names. Keifer Sucks

815
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 7: five foot eleven, drained four threes last night.

816
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 5: He looks like he's on.

817
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 7: Yeah, he looks small, he looks tiny out there, did

818
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 7: all his damage in the first half. They started him

819
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 7: and Dwayne Washington in the backcourts. So good to see

820
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 7: Lance Stevenson back for the Pacers again there last night,

821
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 7: but no, all things considered for the New York Knicks,

822
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 7: pretty impressive victory for them.

823
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, they got a big home stretch, I think. Coming

824
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 2: up to Tips, was asked about it. That's right, and

825
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:56,400
Speaker 2: he was like, it doesn't mean.

826
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 5: Anything one game at a time, look ahead.

827
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 3: Ice, but there they're eighteen and twenty and at this

828
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 3: point last year they're nineteen and nineteen through thirty eight games,

829
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 3: so it's only one game back, but it feels like

830
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,759
Speaker 3: they're like ten games back at what they were last year,

831
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 3: so it can be optimistic about Julius Randall has not

832
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,720
Speaker 3: found himself these first couple months, but watch him yesterday.

833
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 3: He looked like old school Julius Randall, which is last

834
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,359
Speaker 3: year Julius Randall. That's not really old school last year

835
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 3: Julius Randall, who didn't shoot well.

836
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 4: Skeezy said, you didn't really like watching this game. I'm

837
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 4: with you, and even the Associated Press was This was

838
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 4: in the Associated Press recap. The New York Indiana rivalry

839
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 4: in the mid to late nineteen nineties was among the

840
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 4: NBA's must see matchups. This game was far from from

841
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,360
Speaker 4: Associated Even.

842
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:50,319
Speaker 5: ESPN weren't watching.

843
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 7: They've updated it now, but for the longest time they had.

844
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,319
Speaker 7: The final score is New York's one hundred and four

845
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,399
Speaker 7: Indiana seventy four.

846
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,720
Speaker 5: That at a thirty point lowout. I noticed that this morning.

847
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 5: I was like, I was watching you know, that wasn't

848
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 5: that big? Yeah?

849
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 3: Big?

850
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 5: But anyway, I've corrected it now.

851
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 3: Yeah it's rough.

852
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the Pacers, let's pray they move one

853
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 2: of these guys at the deadline.

854
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,839
Speaker 4: They can't. They can't stick with this. I know guys

855
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 4: are out, Like He's like Warren of course still out

856
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 4: and all that, but he's yeah, you know, this.

857
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 3: Game was an MSG doesn't don't you like watching games

858
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:20,399
Speaker 3: in MS?

859
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:22,400
Speaker 4: I am just really not a fan of watching the

860
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 4: Pacers right now, especially when they're missing some of their

861
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 4: other key guys.

862
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 7: But the merchandise we have that's in the form of

863
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 7: the paces it's great, So I go.

864
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 4: I should wear.

865
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 3: It's an upside down Pacers logo. We got to do handstands.

866
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:41,280
Speaker 3: If they get good, we got to do a handstand

867
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:42,800
Speaker 3: So the Pacers logo is upright.

868
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 4: Well, I don't know how to do a hand stander,

869
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 4: but I'm not worried because they're not gonna.

870
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 3: But yeah, the Associated Press are they just they're looking

871
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 3: for hits these days. Associated Press is digging these everybody

872
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:57,840
Speaker 3: needs clicks.

873
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,160
Speaker 2: Final game from last night, because there was only five on.

874
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,720
Speaker 2: Devin Booker scored thirty three to help lead the Sons

875
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 2: to the one twenty three to one to ten victory

876
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 2: over the Pelicans.

877
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:06,240
Speaker 5: Uh.

878
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 2: One note I had from this just because we had

879
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 2: just talked about who's the best point guard in the

880
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 2: league on yesterday's show, and nobody brought up, if I

881
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 2: remember correctly, Chris Paul's name, And at this point of

882
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 2: his career, like getting up there in age, you could

883
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 2: see why, like you're like, you're not gonna be You're

884
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 2: not gonna be starting a franchise of course at this

885
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 2: point around Chris Paul. But meg my god, the guy

886
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,760
Speaker 2: is still awesome. He is like Lebron in this way.

887
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 2: And in this game he had five assists in the

888
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 2: final six minutes to help seal the victory. It was

889
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,320
Speaker 2: a close game. I think the Pelicans had cut it

890
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 2: to two, yeah, and then they just blew the doors

891
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 2: off of this game. The Sons did, led by Chris

892
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 2: Paul and three of those assists going to Bismack beyond

893
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 2: the book, tweeted, and I think he's right. It's hard

894
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 2: to think of a greater illustration of Chris Paul's greatness

895
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 2: than the fact that Bismack has scored double figures in

896
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 2: both of his son's appearances. Yeah, he is on the

897
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 2: Sun's roster and contributing. And if you watch last night's game,

898
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 2: or at least the fourth quarter, it's put him in

899
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 2: a high pick and roll. Chris Paul had just flashed

900
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 2: to the red man, He's going to find you, and

901
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 2: that happened three times and helped put away this game.

902
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 4: He had a good game, sixteen points, six poorts, three assists.

903
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 2: He has a couple of really nice assists late too,

904
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 2: shooters in the corner.

905
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 7: Yes to assist three, two steals, three blocks as well.

906
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 7: But Bismack is obviously kept himself in great shape. He

907
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:21,279
Speaker 7: may be able to hang on to a team here,

908
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,359
Speaker 7: even the Suns. I mean, you stash him right now

909
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 7: for the rest of the season.

910
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 5: If he could win, you.

911
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 2: God, they're gonna have like five really good big guys

912
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 2: because why Dylan smith Is actually said, we play well

913
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 2: for them with opportunity, and then all the guys that

914
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 2: are out right now Deander eight and Jamaal McGee and

915
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 2: Frank the Tank.

916
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,359
Speaker 7: I guess yeah, yeah, I mean I would probably Well,

917
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,479
Speaker 7: I know it's probably keep being caught in the moment,

918
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:44,800
Speaker 7: but I think he's more energetic and athletic than Frank.

919
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 4: Well, it just shows you he needs a point guard, yeah,

920
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 4: like Lowry when he was with the Raptors, or Chris

921
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 4: Paul here again, like he.

922
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 2: Can set a high pick and roll to the net. Yes,

923
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 2: you need a point guard that can find him.

924
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 4: I guess I didn't know which was more surprising that

925
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,320
Speaker 4: he had back to back double digit game so that

926
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 4: Bismack Biambo is only twenty nine years old. Yeah, I

927
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 4: thought he played for the Raptors ten years ago. And

928
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 4: then I also thought he played for the Hornets for

929
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 4: ten seasons. Like he's got to be fifty years old

930
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 4: at this time. He's got a real line like balding.

931
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 4: His hairline goes way back. Crazy. Yeah, no, he's not

932
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,439
Speaker 4: how I thought he was older than twenty they said,

933
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 4: And I had to go check Basketball Reference, like there's

934
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 4: no way, there's no way that's possibly true but factual. Yeah,

935
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 4: anything for else from this game from the.

936
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 3: Suns, I guess you just hope that Jalen Smith becomes

937
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 3: a player. He's probably best known as the guy who

938
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 3: was drafted before Tyrese Haliburton last year. They decided to

939
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 3: go with Jalen Smith in twenty twenty, and he hasn't

940
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 3: had many moments other than a huge dunk on Mason

941
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 3: Plumley the other day and wearing those glasses, but he

942
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 3: is getting up and throwing down. He looked if there's

943
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 3: a good partner for him. It's also Chris Paul just

944
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 3: helping him out. So hopefully he comes around and becomes

945
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 3: a bit of a thing for the Phoenix Suns, who

946
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 3: have some good problems being that they have DeAndre Ayton

947
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 3: and JaVale McGhee, and hopefully Jaln Smith can be a

948
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 3: player too.

949
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 4: Excellent sons wing play too.

950
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 2: I just wanted to point out mckilbridge's twenty three points,

951
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 2: nine to thirteen shooting and then helped keep brandon Ingram

952
00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:18,920
Speaker 2: to a very quiet game because he's one of the

953
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 2: best defenders in the league. And then Cam Johnson eighteen points,

954
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 2: five to three, six boards and a plus thirty five

955
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 2: on the evening and hit one of those big bombs

956
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 2: to sort of seal the deal. So quality win here

957
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,799
Speaker 2: from the Suns Pelicans. The Pelicans had a little wasn't

958
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,319
Speaker 2: there like a week there? We were starting to get

959
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,799
Speaker 2: excited about them again, like, oh, they're back in the

960
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 2: play in race.

961
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 4: They've Yeah, now it feels like they're.

962
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 2: Sort of falling back to earth, yeah a little bit.

963
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:43,920
Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna take our first break when we

964
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:45,839
Speaker 2: come back. We'll hit the beach to answer a few

965
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 2: of your questions. Don't go anywhere, all right, back with

966
00:41:49,080 --> 00:42:02,319
Speaker 2: No Dunks. Let's hit the beach. Answer a few questions. Yeah,

967
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:04,399
Speaker 2: step it on the beach because it's the only place

968
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 2: to go to read your emails and tweets. Send them

969
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,319
Speaker 2: in No Dunks at the Athletic dot Com, tweet him

970
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 2: in at No Dunks, Inc. Or if you feeling extra spicy,

971
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 2: leave them in the YouTube comments below this video, because

972
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 2: Lee goes through every show, looks at every comment and

973
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:20,280
Speaker 2: pulls the good questions.

974
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:22,359
Speaker 5: Is that's right? Right? Every time?

975
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:22,720
Speaker 3: Good?

976
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 4: All right? First, one good day. No Dunks. Work has

977
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 4: required me to be living in a hotel for the

978
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 4: past few weeks. Fortunately, the previous occupant of the room

979
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 4: left the TV logged into their YouTube premium account who

980
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 4: I've been enjoying the ad free content and of course

981
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 4: I had to subscribe them to no Dunks. I love it.

982
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 2: Uh My question, what is something you've found in your

983
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 2: hotel room from the previous guest? Or what is something

984
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 2: that you've left behind? Thanks for always pumping out classics.

985
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 2: That's from Jacob, who then writes a confused Celtics.

986
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:57,360
Speaker 4: Fan from Australia.

987
00:42:57,719 --> 00:42:58,359
Speaker 5: So there you go.

988
00:42:59,200 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 4: So you have an answer to.

989
00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:01,240
Speaker 5: This, Yes, I have two answers.

990
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:03,399
Speaker 7: Actually, yeah, do you remember when we the very first

991
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,720
Speaker 7: time we went to Vegas For the first two nights,

992
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 7: we stayed at the Cosmo and then we moved to

993
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 7: the MGM Family Hotel.

994
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, bit of a downgrade.

995
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 5: Yeah it was. It was when we get to the Cosmo.

996
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:16,919
Speaker 7: Every time you walk in, it's like you're walking into

997
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 7: a bachelor or bachelorette party. There's just people, no matter

998
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:21,800
Speaker 7: what time of the day it was. And that and

999
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 7: I thought, okay, this is not a bad vibe. I

1000
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 7: get in my room first day in Vegas. You know,

1001
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,360
Speaker 7: I'm unpacking, I look under these you know, something catches

1002
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,279
Speaker 7: my under the bed, an open condom wrapper, and I'm

1003
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 7: just like, oh, my god, I don't know, this is gross,

1004
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 7: you know, just the rapper the not the actual condom,

1005
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,320
Speaker 7: which is no better, I guess.

1006
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:43,840
Speaker 4: But yeah, I think so.

1007
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 5: I mean, how fresh is that? You know? Like anyway,

1008
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 5: so I was like, I.

1009
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,359
Speaker 7: Was actually okay to move because I was like, get

1010
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 7: us out of this place. You know, this is that o'

1011
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:56,279
Speaker 7: day anyway. So that's one answer. The second answer was

1012
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 7: just recently on my when I was in Holland in

1013
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,439
Speaker 7: the and I was having to get my computer set

1014
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 7: up to do the show, and so you know, I'm

1015
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:08,479
Speaker 7: logging into the hotel Wi Fi and it was pretty good.

1016
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,400
Speaker 7: But I called down and I said, do you guys,

1017
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 7: you guys have it like a better Wi Fi, maybe

1018
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 7: a corporate WiFi. And the guy was like, no, but

1019
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,359
Speaker 7: we can maybe hard wire you in if you want.

1020
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 7: And I was like, yes, please do that. But then

1021
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 7: I couldn't find my little FireWire thing that you know

1022
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 7: you can plug in for that. Fortunately the hotel they

1023
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,040
Speaker 7: rang around from one of their partner hotels, got me

1024
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:41,560
Speaker 7: a hot wire fire whatever it's called. Anyway, Yeah, they

1025
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:43,919
Speaker 7: got me and they connected me up and the Wi

1026
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:48,280
Speaker 7: Fi was absolutely perfect. There streaming from the hotel in Amsterdam,

1027
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 7: and afterwards I was like, oh man, I need this

1028
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 7: hot wire fire. So I actually nicked it for the

1029
00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,959
Speaker 7: rest of the trip because I knew I was coming

1030
00:44:58,000 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 7: back to that hotel because we were flying out of

1031
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:01,879
Speaker 7: ams there. But I didn't want to have to risk,

1032
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:03,600
Speaker 7: like what if I go to another one and they

1033
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 7: don't have and I can't do it because most hotels

1034
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 7: have that the hard wire connection these days. So I

1035
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 7: actually stole it, but I didn't really stole. It was

1036
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,239
Speaker 7: a borrow steal without telling them about it.

1037
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 5: You gave it back when I came back. I circled back.

1038
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 7: We did one more show that I connected and plugged

1039
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,759
Speaker 7: it in, and then I left it there. So I

1040
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 7: was like Robin Hood in a way. You didn't go

1041
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:27,799
Speaker 7: down to the front a woman that really went, oh yeah,

1042
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:29,840
Speaker 7: he was the maintenance guy. I was sort of looking

1043
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 7: for him on my way to the you know, breakfast

1044
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:32,839
Speaker 7: and stuff like that.

1045
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 3: But that helps you out. Yeah wow, that's great guy.

1046
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:37,359
Speaker 5: Really great guy there. Yeah.

1047
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 7: So yeah, So so I sort of, you know, I

1048
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 7: created something and then I ended up leaving it behind anyway,

1049
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:46,360
Speaker 7: So I didn't steal it, but I borrowed.

1050
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:48,319
Speaker 4: It, borrowed it. You really did borrow it. One of

1051
00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 4: my I mean, you know, one of my sayings, ABC

1052
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:53,319
Speaker 4: always bring chargers, but I've been thinking maybe you don't

1053
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 4: need to bring things like that. If you're going to

1054
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 4: a hotel, just ask people. I've left those You're going

1055
00:45:58,200 --> 00:45:59,919
Speaker 4: to find a dongle or a hart while Yeah.

1056
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 7: Problem and that Lego Land in fact getting the corporate

1057
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:06,120
Speaker 7: WiFi because I said, listen, i'm working. They gave me

1058
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 7: a special They said, yeah, man, put this one in your.

1059
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:09,400
Speaker 4: Computer and met out a Lego.

1060
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 5: So it certainly helps to ask just say, hey, can

1061
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:13,920
Speaker 5: I have the good stuff?

1062
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:16,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, you had to sit. You had to see this

1063
00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 3: hand motion that leaders did at the table. So like

1064
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 3: Anita left to right, like filling up your gas tank. Well,

1065
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 3: just like the operator of the condo went straighter with

1066
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 3: the phone noise.

1067
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 7: You've got to just do the Wi Fi speed checks

1068
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,040
Speaker 7: and you know, because then when I when I, you know,

1069
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 7: do the connect with JD.

1070
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 5: It's like I'm going to know in advance whether or

1071
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,360
Speaker 5: not it should work. And if I see that needle

1072
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,719
Speaker 5: go strong to the right, then I'm usually.

1073
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 2: So you also asked the people at Lego Land or

1074
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:49,560
Speaker 2: Lego Hotel.

1075
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:52,359
Speaker 4: Actually they're souped up wi Fi.

1076
00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1077
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 7: I just said to him and said, you don't have

1078
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 7: a corporate WiFi, do you, because most of the time

1079
00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 7: the Wi Fi they give you is the free stuff

1080
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,719
Speaker 7: that's not good. And the lady said, yeah, we do.

1081
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 7: He go have this, and she gave me a different

1082
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:04,880
Speaker 7: coat and I plugged it in. It was perfect.

1083
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 4: Oh but so you did pay for it? No?

1084
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 5: No, no, no, no, I think I think I'm working.

1085
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 4: I'm working someone that's stayed in our hotel that's working. Well,

1086
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 4: here you go on the house.

1087
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:21,480
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1088
00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 4: Well good, I'm glad something good answers everybody else. You

1089
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,440
Speaker 4: inspired me. I actually forgot that. I once went to

1090
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 4: a game in Denver when we were doing the starters,

1091
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 4: and I did a game there for whatever reason, as

1092
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 4: like a you know, like a game time reporter or

1093
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 4: something like that. I ended up sitting next to Eduardo Nahara,

1094
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,520
Speaker 4: who was a scout. He left behind his phone charger

1095
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:45,840
Speaker 4: and I took it and I still have it. I

1096
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:47,600
Speaker 4: don't think it works though, Maybe that's why you left

1097
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:51,120
Speaker 4: it behind. It was a ship charger, not the good stuff.

1098
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,960
Speaker 4: I should have wardo for the good stuff. But I

1099
00:47:54,000 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 4: also found a condom as at the Cosmo. Gone at

1100
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:06,120
Speaker 4: the Cosmo, I only found the innerds, not the rapper, Yeah,

1101
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 4: not the wrapper if the.

1102
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 7: Brand yeah, or you know they connected and now they

1103
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 7: come up to my room, bring a condom and he.

1104
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:22,239
Speaker 4: Put old on. Let's talk this. You want to say

1105
00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:24,400
Speaker 4: that at one points what was in your room at

1106
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,879
Speaker 4: the Coso? Got a call to go to another room,

1107
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,920
Speaker 4: bring a conco person decided let me open this up.

1108
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 4: Throws the wrapper under your bed. I guess puts the condo.

1109
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:38,359
Speaker 7: I don't think you put it on pre I think

1110
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:43,640
Speaker 7: he just got it out of the package, brought it up.

1111
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:55,560
Speaker 8: You asked me, all right, maybe good condy any good answers?

1112
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 5: Oh?

1113
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 4: Man, I mean what's under your bed at the Cosmo?

1114
00:48:59,040 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 4: Did you find?

1115
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:04,319
Speaker 3: There should be no no way to put anything under

1116
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:06,879
Speaker 3: a bed at a hotel. They should all be walled off,

1117
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,319
Speaker 3: you know, because there's nothing good can come from that.

1118
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:14,320
Speaker 3: Like you know, obviously in Vegas too, people aren't happy.

1119
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,719
Speaker 3: I've been with guys in Vegas that have not been

1120
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 3: very in not had a great experience on the casino floor,

1121
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,320
Speaker 3: and then the thoughts, some negative thoughts looking out the window.

1122
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 3: I wouldn't I wouldn't you know there's a bed there?

1123
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:30,879
Speaker 3: Not so good? I would, I would, I would wall

1124
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:33,000
Speaker 3: it off. If I was the hotel manager, I'd say

1125
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 3: no more of that. It's that's that's happened at the

1126
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,279
Speaker 3: Luxor many of the times. They've got a lot of

1127
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,879
Speaker 3: balconies looking out, you know, the pyramid, the Luxor there

1128
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,400
Speaker 3: pyramid looking out onto the casino floor. I guess that

1129
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,720
Speaker 3: they may have rectified that. But there are suicides that happened,

1130
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 3: so anyway.

1131
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:50,680
Speaker 4: That's I get that part. But are people killing themself

1132
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:51,720
Speaker 4: under the well?

1133
00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:55,000
Speaker 3: You never know what if you could. There's been many

1134
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:55,520
Speaker 3: an accident.

1135
00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:58,279
Speaker 2: All right, You're only going to find some pretty girl

1136
00:49:58,360 --> 00:49:58,960
Speaker 2: stuff under there.

1137
00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 3: Probably, Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Calm doms Yeah, I'll

1138
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 3: stay away from my store. I mean, I last week,

1139
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 3: I'll admit this. I think I got to get this

1140
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 3: off my chest because you said you stole that, and

1141
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 3: Trey said he stole a charger. We were at a

1142
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:20,320
Speaker 3: local base. That was a pune attempt.

1143
00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:23,880
Speaker 4: Ja.

1144
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:26,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's another one. You have to see

1145
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:28,160
Speaker 3: it because it's an a Jane.

1146
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:28,800
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1147
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:32,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the real deja vu of the deja Rosa. Well,

1148
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:36,840
Speaker 3: last week. We're at a bagel shop. We ordered once

1149
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 3: from the counter from my two children, ordered a second

1150
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:43,320
Speaker 3: time because my daughter Zoe first didn't seem like she

1151
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 3: wanted to eat. Second time, She's like, oh yeah, I

1152
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:48,880
Speaker 3: want tuna, right, So I overpay for a tuna sandwich,

1153
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:51,040
Speaker 3: which is they don't even have on the menu. It's

1154
00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:53,759
Speaker 3: they just grabbed their tuna which they've already packaged in

1155
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,719
Speaker 3: a little plastic to go container and then throw it

1156
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:58,800
Speaker 3: on the sandwich. And it was an expensive sandwich. That's

1157
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,359
Speaker 3: the point of this. And then I walk away and

1158
00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:03,920
Speaker 3: then I needed to get another tuna because we waste

1159
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:07,960
Speaker 3: spilled all over the place. The lineup was huge. I

1160
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 3: just went and nicked a little tuna container, didn't go

1161
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 3: pay for it. There was a huge line, it was busy.

1162
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 3: We overpaid like a bunch of things. We go there

1163
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 3: a lot. Am I gonna go back and say, hey,

1164
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 3: I nicked that tuna container. I just went and grabbed it.

1165
00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 9: I just had to go. I just I had a

1166
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:26,799
Speaker 9: kid who needed to eat tuna. Write that second and

1167
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,840
Speaker 9: you feel like because you paid so much for it,

1168
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,240
Speaker 9: I definitely overpaid for it. It was like a sandwich

1169
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 9: plus a tuna and no one knew what to do,

1170
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 9: and I'm like, tuna, it's not a tuna.

1171
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:38,719
Speaker 3: That's not a tuna. And I tried to do it.

1172
00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:43,160
Speaker 3: Ar sports nigger anyway, Anyways, I got it out of there,

1173
00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 3: but uh yeah, yeah, let's move on's Hey, Tips and Trunks,

1174
00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:51,439
Speaker 3: longtime listener from the Bjay days. Thanks for the best,

1175
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 3: most consistently great NBA podcast out there. Loving that athletic

1176
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:58,640
Speaker 3: subscription even though I missed your amazing ad reads, I've

1177
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 3: got a new Ooh Ben Simmons trade for you. Hello.

1178
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:05,480
Speaker 3: One trade I have yet to hear is Ben Simmons

1179
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 3: for Buddy Healed, Harrison Barnes and picks with the Sacramento Kings.

1180
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:12,719
Speaker 3: Danny Green probably gets thrown in for his salary. The

1181
00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:15,640
Speaker 3: depth would allow the Sixers to stand the hunt for

1182
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:19,480
Speaker 3: a big name with tradable positive contracts that they get

1183
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:23,360
Speaker 3: back from the Kings, and the Kings get the best

1184
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 3: player here with Ben Simmons. So what do you think

1185
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:28,600
Speaker 3: about that one trey that's from Mark.

1186
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:29,799
Speaker 5: H I love it.

1187
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:33,280
Speaker 4: If I'm the Sixers, you're getting two shooters and Buddy

1188
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 4: Healed and Harrison Barnes, both of them would be in

1189
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,080
Speaker 4: your rotation and you're getting picks, and you're giving up

1190
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,800
Speaker 4: Danny Green, who you know is a good luck charm

1191
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,399
Speaker 4: for sure, and you know Ben Simmons, who hasn't played

1192
00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:46,200
Speaker 4: for a while. It would make Tobias Harris expendable, which

1193
00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:49,719
Speaker 4: is probably good because bringing in Healed and Barnes you

1194
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,160
Speaker 4: probably still need somebody who can make plays. You know,

1195
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 4: those guys are scores first and foremost. But for the Kings,

1196
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 4: this feels like you're giving up a lot for Ben

1197
00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 4: Simmons because Buddy he or Harrison Barnes could be in

1198
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 4: their own deals. You know, you're getting more picks back,

1199
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 4: maybe something like that another player, But Healed and Barnes

1200
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:10,279
Speaker 4: are probably the most likely to be traded from the Kings.

1201
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:14,960
Speaker 4: I would think much rather keep Fox, Halliburton, Mitchell, those

1202
00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 4: kind of guys. So this is maybe close to a deal,

1203
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:20,480
Speaker 4: and I kind of think the Sixers should ask for

1204
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 4: a similar package, though I'm sure they're setting their sites

1205
00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:25,240
Speaker 4: a lot higher than Healed and Harrison.

1206
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:28,839
Speaker 7: What do you think, Lee, Yeah, I think though if

1207
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:31,000
Speaker 7: that's on the table, I think the Sixers probably look

1208
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,680
Speaker 7: at that because that's what Daryl Morey wants. More shooting,

1209
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 7: around mbid and you get that and you get that professional,

1210
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:39,960
Speaker 7: that solid pro Harrison Barnes there, who you know, he's

1211
00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:41,879
Speaker 7: a bit frustrating at times, but I think he comes

1212
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:45,600
Speaker 7: in and gives them another veteran because of you know,

1213
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,320
Speaker 7: Tobias Harris. It's a little bit of overlap there, but

1214
00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:50,879
Speaker 7: I think I think that's fine. And Buddy, I mean,

1215
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,680
Speaker 7: Buddy liked a tweet that someone said, hey, you should

1216
00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:54,359
Speaker 7: be traded to the.

1217
00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:56,440
Speaker 5: Sixers, so we know he would fit in with the

1218
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,719
Speaker 5: way that they play. As far as the Kings though,

1219
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,000
Speaker 5: like this, this is the whole problem I sort of

1220
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 5: still see with Ben Simmons is like, Okay, he needs

1221
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:04,800
Speaker 5: the ball in his hand, so that means Fox is

1222
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:06,400
Speaker 5: going to be off the ball. Is Fox going to

1223
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:07,120
Speaker 5: be comfortable like that?

1224
00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:09,239
Speaker 7: I don't think that's where you want Fox most not.

1225
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:11,200
Speaker 7: I think you want it in his hand if you're

1226
00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:14,239
Speaker 7: going forward with danon Fox, if you've decided you're going

1227
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,400
Speaker 7: to move on from the Aaron Fox, and sure, maybe

1228
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:17,879
Speaker 7: then you can bring him in and then and then

1229
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,320
Speaker 7: trade him on one with someone. I just don't think

1230
00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 7: offensively that's a great backcourt. Defensively, Simmons is an enormous

1231
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:28,480
Speaker 7: upgrade and he does provide something there, but looks to

1232
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:31,000
Speaker 7: me a little bit of a little bit of clutter

1233
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:32,440
Speaker 7: there on the front court side.

1234
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:35,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess the fit is a little redundant. But

1235
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,120
Speaker 3: if you're the Kings and you're looking at from this perspective,

1236
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:39,280
Speaker 3: are we going to get a better player than Ben Simmons?

1237
00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:43,239
Speaker 3: Maybe not some let's just splurge all our guys, and yeah,

1238
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:45,919
Speaker 3: maybe it's it's a little much as Tree said, maybe

1239
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:49,120
Speaker 3: you try and get two players and two different trades.

1240
00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:50,719
Speaker 3: If you're looking at Tree Buddy Hill and looking to

1241
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:54,040
Speaker 3: treat Harrison Barnes, which kind of makes sense, but you know,

1242
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:55,759
Speaker 3: maybe you're just looking for the best player. Maybe we

1243
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:58,200
Speaker 3: just want to start and from the six Ers perspective though, yeah,

1244
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,600
Speaker 3: I just wonder if it's almost a bunch of good players.

1245
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:04,360
Speaker 3: Now you have on the perimeter with Harrison Barnes and

1246
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,480
Speaker 3: Buddy Healed, and then you played Tobias Harrison Curry with

1247
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:11,240
Speaker 3: them or Tyres Maxi, and then you still have Matist Steibel,

1248
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:13,840
Speaker 3: Like are you taking it up a level? Like it

1249
00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:17,160
Speaker 3: sort of makes sense, but who's going to be like

1250
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,600
Speaker 3: the go to perimeter guy that they still need in

1251
00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:21,719
Speaker 3: the playoffs around Joel Embiid. I don't know if it

1252
00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,399
Speaker 3: comes from one of those guys, but logically, I mean,

1253
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:26,319
Speaker 3: you kind of you already have that. You kind of

1254
00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:30,120
Speaker 3: have Harrison Barnes in Tobias Harris, you know, those similar

1255
00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:32,880
Speaker 3: type of guys. But maybe Harrison you can rely on

1256
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:35,880
Speaker 3: a little bit more. But you'd probably be who are

1257
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:37,759
Speaker 3: you gonna play? I guess is the question when it

1258
00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:39,560
Speaker 3: comes to that. So I don't know. It's a tough

1259
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:41,120
Speaker 3: one for Philly, but I can see the Kings doing

1260
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:41,480
Speaker 3: it more.

1261
00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:43,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kings having interest in a player that can play

1262
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 2: defenses for sure is wise. But I get what you

1263
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:48,880
Speaker 2: guys are saying. You don't want to give up too

1264
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:51,280
Speaker 2: much in return. And the fit with Fox is interesting.

1265
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:54,120
Speaker 2: Could they make it work? But I like him on

1266
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,560
Speaker 2: a team like this. I'll be honest. Ben Simmons not

1267
00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:59,560
Speaker 2: playing right now for Philadelphia Simisers, I'd love to see him.

1268
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:00,839
Speaker 4: That would be his team.

1269
00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:02,480
Speaker 2: I'd be like, in a way, be like, here you go,

1270
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,560
Speaker 2: let's he what you can do. But yeah, that's a

1271
00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,320
Speaker 2: little too much. Going back from Mark's proposal, I think

1272
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:12,719
Speaker 2: thanks Mark. Final one, this one's story time here and

1273
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,680
Speaker 2: I'm gonna warn you. We're gonna show you a photo.

1274
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:17,240
Speaker 2: It's gonna make you sick.

1275
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:21,440
Speaker 4: I tested it out last night. I said, Nora, what

1276
00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 4: do you think of this? Look at this?

1277
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:27,480
Speaker 2: And she got sick all over the place. Yeah, you

1278
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 2: don't show yet, Jada everywhere. Don't show you yet. This

1279
00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:33,239
Speaker 2: is a storytime here from Andy C quote. I never

1280
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:36,720
Speaker 2: thought I would be in a place to share this story,

1281
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:41,279
Speaker 2: but Darryl Armstrong's feet are now a relevant topic. Yeah,

1282
00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:43,360
Speaker 2: because we were discussing them the other day here on

1283
00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 2: the show. Back in two thousand and eight, I was

1284
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:49,040
Speaker 2: working a celebrity golf tournament for Hornets then Bobcats president

1285
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:52,879
Speaker 2: Fred Whitfield's charity. The Attorney was sponsored by Jordan and Nike,

1286
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,040
Speaker 2: so there was a ton of giveaways and swag for

1287
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:58,400
Speaker 2: everyone invited. Darryl Armstrong was one of the celebrity guests

1288
00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,799
Speaker 2: and for whatever reason, he didn't bring any shoes and

1289
00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:05,480
Speaker 2: he had only worn sandals to the event. After the

1290
00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:08,520
Speaker 2: golf tourney, there was a formal after party in the

1291
00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:11,719
Speaker 2: hotel ballroom, and the only shoes Daryl had were the

1292
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:14,759
Speaker 2: free golf shoes we gave him when he checked in

1293
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,840
Speaker 2: for his tea time that morning. So Daryl Armstrong showed

1294
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:21,400
Speaker 2: up on the dance floor in a linen suit and

1295
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:25,640
Speaker 2: his free and his free golf spikes and absolutely thrashed

1296
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:30,600
Speaker 2: the floor. Daryl Armstrong hitting the Cupid shuffle in some

1297
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:35,000
Speaker 2: golf spikes is the reason we host celebrity golf tournaments.

1298
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,400
Speaker 2: It's from Andy C. That's a great story. So happy

1299
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:41,480
Speaker 2: you got a chance to share it. Love the visual.

1300
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:43,960
Speaker 2: I love the visual of any person dancing on a

1301
00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:46,560
Speaker 2: dance floor golf spikes, like the sound that would make

1302
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:51,400
Speaker 2: it so slippery, too dangerous of course if you step

1303
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:56,200
Speaker 2: on somebody. But we didn't show Daryl's Armstrong's feet when

1304
00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 2: we were first talking about the other show, and it's

1305
00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:01,439
Speaker 2: for good reason. But I think today has been such

1306
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:03,640
Speaker 2: a shit show as it is, No why don't we

1307
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 2: just lean fully into it? So JD, I think you

1308
00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:10,160
Speaker 2: have the photo here they are so for those listening,

1309
00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:15,000
Speaker 2: I mean, the best way to describe this is his

1310
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 2: It's as if his feet were like his giant toe

1311
00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 2: is Hodor and he's carrying brand.

1312
00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:31,440
Speaker 10: His middle toe is because the second toe is immediately

1313
00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:36,840
Speaker 10: over this giant smashed big toe and it's a it's

1314
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,080
Speaker 10: it's a look, so there it is.

1315
00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:43,480
Speaker 4: Sarah Gray says, I thought it was gonna be way worse. Right,

1316
00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:44,560
Speaker 4: this is a bad foot.

1317
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:48,400
Speaker 3: That's a bad It's like the big toe is hiding

1318
00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:51,320
Speaker 3: under the bed of that second It looks like it's

1319
00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:53,760
Speaker 3: hiding and it's scared, and that second toe is protecting

1320
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:54,320
Speaker 3: the big.

1321
00:58:54,440 --> 00:59:00,120
Speaker 7: One of those dopes with big underbit. The is it.

1322
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:03,240
Speaker 6: There's a bunch, there's a there's a massive there's a

1323
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:04,600
Speaker 6: boxer kind of thing.

1324
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:07,320
Speaker 2: It looks like the second toe to me is like

1325
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,360
Speaker 2: on Jeopardy, ready to press the butzer.

1326
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 4: That's pretty.

1327
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:14,920
Speaker 3: But he broke his big toe, I guess, and it

1328
00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:18,800
Speaker 3: just it's directed directing that way, right, I don't point

1329
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:19,240
Speaker 3: and right.

1330
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:24,160
Speaker 2: It's one wild Yeah, there is apologies to everyone out there,

1331
00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:25,320
Speaker 2: but thank you for the story.

1332
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:27,960
Speaker 3: Thank you for the story. I wonder if anyone went

1333
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:30,800
Speaker 3: up to Darryl and said, hey, can you take off

1334
00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:35,640
Speaker 3: the spikes in because they're they're removable at time, just

1335
00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:38,320
Speaker 3: unscrew them and just dancing what looked like dress shoots.

1336
00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:42,680
Speaker 3: But maybe it was too late. Maybe he was doing

1337
00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:45,280
Speaker 3: the cubid shuffle, so we probably like.

1338
00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 4: He's a caffeine. He's like killing it out there. Man.

Speaker 2: Little sweaty I am though, and we only like really

1357
01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:54,280
Speaker 2: worked out for like twenty minutes.

1358
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:55,840
Speaker 3: But I remember it doesn't look sweaty at all.

1359
01:00:57,040 --> 01:01:00,120
Speaker 4: Was coaching me? Yeah, yeah, yeah, so he was put

1360
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,640
Speaker 4: me throw a workout. Okay, that's why that last poty

1361
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:05,040
Speaker 4: was showing me, showing me how to throw a left jab.

1362
01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,000
Speaker 3: It looks a good spot to throw.

1363
01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:12,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is like like a dungeon. Yeah, yeah, you

1364
01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:12,960
Speaker 4: got a good punch.

1365
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:14,880
Speaker 3: Skits no.

1366
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:20,360
Speaker 4: Respect, Like I have so much respect for box Yeah,

1367
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:22,640
Speaker 4: Like it's just like I said the other day, like

1368
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:27,400
Speaker 4: just just just shadow boxing for fifteen minutes you're exhausted. Yeah,

1369
01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 4: and then I remember you had me like you put

1370
01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:32,080
Speaker 4: like a like a skipping rope up and I was

1371
01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:34,760
Speaker 4: like having to like ducker and then you know, just

1372
01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:35,280
Speaker 4: a week.

1373
01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1374
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:40,920
Speaker 7: I went to a boxing match once in Manchester. Actually

1375
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 7: it was Costazoo versus Ricky Hatton right, and it was

1376
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,560
Speaker 7: a massive, massive fight and I had really good ground

1377
01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:52,200
Speaker 7: floor level seats. Actually, I couldn't believe just how many times,

1378
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:54,640
Speaker 7: like seeing an event live is always different than when

1379
01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:56,400
Speaker 7: you seeing it on TV. Just how many times these

1380
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:58,280
Speaker 7: guys punch each other in the face and their heads

1381
01:01:58,320 --> 01:01:59,720
Speaker 7: just like bobbing back like that.

1382
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:01,919
Speaker 5: They went eleven rounds. It's fight.

1383
01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:05,120
Speaker 7: I was exhausted from just watching it because it's just

1384
01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:08,760
Speaker 7: like nonsense. You know what on TV you think, oh,

1385
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:10,400
Speaker 7: that's not too bad. That's a jab, that's a little

1386
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:11,160
Speaker 7: bit live.

1387
01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 4: It's just bad. No, I don't think that. But yeah,

1388
01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:17,520
Speaker 4: when I'm watching boxing, I'm thinking not too bad getting

1389
01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:20,040
Speaker 4: punched in trying to punch back smooth. But I just

1390
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:20,760
Speaker 4: think you.

1391
01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,480
Speaker 5: See more like little jabs and you think, oh, there's

1392
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:23,160
Speaker 5: not much to that.

1393
01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:25,600
Speaker 7: But in person, that's like this guy just cracked this

1394
01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:27,600
Speaker 7: other guy in the jaw in the face and he's

1395
01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:29,919
Speaker 7: just like, oh, oh he's back, and then he gets

1396
01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:31,920
Speaker 7: back and yeah, he's going at it.

1397
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:35,280
Speaker 4: So it would be a fun pick of payoff if

1398
01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:39,000
Speaker 4: we could do it here, just like my punch. We

1399
01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:41,280
Speaker 4: got a bob over there. Yeah, I'm mob over there.

1400
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:47,160
Speaker 4: Somebody could could box shadow box the entire Yeah, people

1401
01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:50,680
Speaker 4: would love hearing in the background a little bit. But

1402
01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:52,840
Speaker 4: it's funny you mentioned that you went to a boxing

1403
01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:55,080
Speaker 4: match once. I thought you were mentioning the time that

1404
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:59,680
Speaker 4: you fight against the kangaro Just is it really a

1405
01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:02,880

01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:04,280
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.

1407
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:06,480
Speaker 7: Well remember there's that great little clip out there over

1408
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:09,280
Speaker 7: the Australian guy when the kangaroo's got his dog, he

1409
01:03:09,360 --> 01:03:09,920
Speaker 7: goes over.

1410
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 5: And he shapes up. Yes, and the Kangaroo's got to

1411
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 5: look on his face like what did you do that for? Man?

1412
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 5: And he left?

1413
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:19,520

01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:22,280

Speaker 4: Well, it's crazy, but.

1417

1418
01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:29,280

Speaker 7: You see them working out selfies, but no, I mean, yeah,

1420
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,080
Speaker 7: I've just never gotten that close to one.

1421
01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:44,120
Speaker 3: Really smart, it's intimidy, yeah it is. Yeah, but there's

1422
01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,600
Speaker 3: even a metal behind lee there that's hanging, so it

1423
01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 3: definitely looks like a boxing.

1424
01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:51,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's got his fists, you know, really bald up

1425
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:54,360
Speaker 4: hands look ginormous in this one as well.

1426
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:58,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, you look, this was the next card, the room

1429
01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:05,600
Speaker 4: Have had that? Well, there was like that. There was

1430
01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:07,520
Speaker 4: like a big like a week or a month, it

1431
01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:09,479
Speaker 4: felt like where there was all these videos of these

1432
01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:12,800
Speaker 4: scary rus like you said, like remember they would like

1433
01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:14,760
Speaker 4: come up to people's window and they're like tap it

1434
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:18,200
Speaker 4: on the window, sizing people up. I guess it was.

1435
01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:22,480
Speaker 4: It was in the news all right, in the ruse.

1436
01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:28,120
Speaker 4: The people who brought you news. Here's our last boxing picture,

1437
01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:32,720
Speaker 4: Mattiel with his giant Benny the ball gloves. I'm still

1438
01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:36,600
Speaker 4: trying to track down the video. It's not good in

1439
01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:39,280
Speaker 4: the old Kirby household. This morning, me storming around trying

1440
01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:42,120
Speaker 4: to find the external hard drive that has a picture

1441
01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:45,120
Speaker 4: of Matt and Benny boxing. I think it's probably corrupted

1442
01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:47,840
Speaker 4: the file anyways, But luckily task came through in the

1443
01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:51,080
Speaker 4: clutch with this picture of Matt's some gigantic gloves.

1444
01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:53,640
Speaker 2: Now, what do you remember from this photo? Like Matt

1445
01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:57,000
Speaker 2: wanted this photo taken? I feel like I don't think

1446
01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:00,040
Speaker 2: like which I thought, which he doesn't do often. I

1447
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:02,320
Speaker 2: remember that being o He's like, yeah, let me, let'll

1448
01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:03,400
Speaker 2: get a pick word in these.

1449
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:04,760
Speaker 4: That's what I remember.

1450
01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:09,080
Speaker 3: But like Trey's hard drive, it's a little foggy. My

1451
01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:13,640
Speaker 3: brain's a little corrupted from that particular hallway there. Why

1452
01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:15,240
Speaker 3: were we in the hallway? I guess Benny was just

1453
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:17,080
Speaker 3: taking us around for the filming.

1454
01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:19,880
Speaker 4: Visions of course, yeah right, but.

1455
01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:22,000
Speaker 3: Yeah did he did he throw some with Benny? I

1456
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:22,920
Speaker 3: don't really remember.

1457
01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:26,160
Speaker 4: There's a video of them like standing side by side

1458
01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:31,840
Speaker 4: and they're both like like nineteen twenties, right, Okay, all right,

1459
01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:37,680
Speaker 4: so that's the happy boxing Pics day everybody, every January fifth.

1462
01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:44,800
Speaker 4: these funny classes.

1463
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:49,120
Speaker 2: All right, let's get to pick the results from last night.

1464
01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:52,240
Speaker 2: Grizzlies Calves was the game. It turned out to be

1465
01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,760
Speaker 2: an awesome game. Like we said, Cleveland was favored by

1466
01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:56,320
Speaker 2: two and a half. We were trying to figure that out.

1467
01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:58,480
Speaker 2: We were like, maybe they got that backwards.

1468
01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:01,520
Speaker 4: It should be Grizzly' favorite and half road Warriors the Grizzlies,

1469
01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:04,920
Speaker 4: and it really should have been not Memphis covered money

1470
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:07,480
Speaker 4: line hit and that's a victory once again for me

1471
01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:11,400
Speaker 4: and Leley. We're the road Warriors. Are you Hawk or Animal?

1472
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 5: All right?

1473
01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:19,480
Speaker 4: I'm Animal? And that's a loss for Trey. Yeah, you

1474
01:06:19,560 --> 01:06:22,240
Speaker 4: got forced into that one, and task got the w

1475
01:06:22,360 --> 01:06:24,120
Speaker 4: as well taken the Grizzlies. So what's tonight's game?

1476
01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:27,120
Speaker 3: Eleven games on the sket but a lot of big spreads,

1477
01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:31,480
Speaker 3: very big spreads, but some tiny ones down way later

1478
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:34,960
Speaker 3: on this evening. A great one on ESPN Jazz Nuggets

1479
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:38,000
Speaker 3: three and a half point spread, the Heat Trailblazer is

1480
01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:39,640
Speaker 3: just a one and a half point spread in Portland,

1481
01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:41,760
Speaker 3: and then the Hawks Kings, which we are picking the

1482
01:06:41,760 --> 01:06:45,800
Speaker 3: Hawks strike LA. Recently, the Kings played till the end

1483
01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:48,440
Speaker 3: of the game with the Los Angeles Likers and surprisingly

1484
01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:50,760
Speaker 3: they are one and a half point favorite at home,

1485
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 3: even though they're coming off of back to back and

1486
01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:55,360
Speaker 3: just like yesterday, maybe you guys will be the road

1498
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:29,440
Speaker 2: the Hawks and you get a little wiggle room there.

1499
