<v Speaker 7>I don't know about when we're around other six to

0:02:29.080 --> 0:02:31.959
<v Speaker 7>eight year old I sent this to Laura as a joke.

0:02:32.040 --> 0:02:33.880
<v Speaker 7>I was like, look at this hilarious thing I found.

0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:37.400
<v Speaker 7>She was gonna order herself bones and me muscles. What

0:02:37.520 --> 0:02:40.720
<v Speaker 7>a cute coup didn't have her size and bones. So

0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:43.680
<v Speaker 7>I'm just walking around like bacon out there today. I'm

0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:47.320
<v Speaker 7>gonna go vote early today wearing this. That's gonna be awesome.

0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:50.320
<v Speaker 1>And what about you? What do you got anything in

0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:50.800
<v Speaker 1>the story?

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:54.960
<v Speaker 5>Oh? I got out of it this year hash hashtag blessed.

0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:57.040
<v Speaker 5>I feel so great and not having to do it.

0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:00.200
<v Speaker 5>I've done it for several years in a row, and uh,

0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:02.520
<v Speaker 5>this year the kids were so into their costumes they

0:03:02.520 --> 0:03:05.520
<v Speaker 5>didn't care about us. So it's great. We've already done

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:09.280
<v Speaker 5>a Halloween trick or treat thing in our neighborhood. Halloween

0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:12.880
<v Speaker 5>is over for us. God, it feels so good. It's

0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:14.680
<v Speaker 5>in the past. Man, it feels great.

0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:16.200
<v Speaker 1>It's one of those Halloween weekends.

0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:20.639
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, Halloween months. I've been at home depot looking

0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:23.360
<v Speaker 5>at Halloween decorations for the last six weeks. We go

0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:27.880
<v Speaker 5>every week one of my kids. People want to look

0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:31.320
<v Speaker 5>at the inflatables and we end up buying some piece

0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:32.120
<v Speaker 5>of crap.

<v Speaker 5>I love my decorations. One of the best houses in

0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:39.720

<v Speaker 1>People love it. Yeah, well, well, what's the what's the

<v Speaker 5>Chucky always went.

0:03:56.080 --> 0:04:01.360
<v Speaker 1>Screepy. We got lots to get to here. On today's podcast,

0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 1>we start with another Weggie Friday Night and guess where

0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:09.440
<v Speaker 1>it happened. Yeah, in Portland, our guy Lamar Hurd once

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:12.119
<v Speaker 1>again on the call, jose Simon Tea.

0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:14.280
<v Speaker 5>The way bounces ahead, the nurkids repples.

0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Into the land and.

0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:17.720
<v Speaker 5>Well wedged on the glass.

0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:20.040
<v Speaker 2>We have a Weddy.

<v Speaker 5>You had to wait until the officially calls.

0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:26.240
<v Speaker 1>It's got to be officer and we have a kissal

0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 1>word from Command Centered.

0:04:28.760 --> 0:04:34.200
<v Speaker 2>We have a web command center, Shane Goom chasing it down,

0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:38.840
<v Speaker 2>registering another one of Weggie tracker dot com.

0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:42.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, there it is, Yes, Radar.

0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:46.159
<v Speaker 1>Our fourth Weggie of the season. Are back to back

0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:50.640
<v Speaker 1>defensive Weggie from blocksh Eklund there on Nurk and Collaboro

0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:53.600
<v Speaker 1>and Hurd having some fun on the broadcast. You'll love

0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:56.839
<v Speaker 1>to see it. So not bad for start the season.

0:04:57.240 --> 0:05:01.240
<v Speaker 5>How many have the Blazers had over the last year plus.

0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:02.719
<v Speaker 1>Well, you can go check on you tracker dot com.

0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.640
<v Speaker 1>That's right, and it's by far the most. Yeah, it's amazing.

0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:11.360
<v Speaker 1>Winners of the NBA weekend Meetman Muscleman TK on zipping

0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:14.080
<v Speaker 1>oh business.

0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:16.680
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, when you get us started, I thought I'd have

0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 7>a lot more visibility.

0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:19.520
<v Speaker 1>It has eyes on it. You can't see through it

0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:19.840
<v Speaker 1>at all.

0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:23.120
<v Speaker 7>But it was a monster mash weekend for the Cleveland

0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:26.239
<v Speaker 7>Cavaliers and Donovan Mitchell. They beat the Celtics in ot

0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:29.680
<v Speaker 7>in Boston on Friday, a huge win. Forty one points

0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:32.520
<v Speaker 7>from Mitchell, forty one from Karris Lavert and it felt

0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:34.720
<v Speaker 7>like forty one highlights from Donovan.

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Mitchell in this one.

0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:37.960
<v Speaker 7>He followed that up by beating the Knicks at home

0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.960
<v Speaker 7>on Sunday, thirty eight points, twelve assists, eight threes for

0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:44.160
<v Speaker 7>Donovan Mitchell, a single point for Karris Lavert.

0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:44.960
<v Speaker 1>I do like that.

0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 7>Forty one and thirty eight for Mitchell, forty one and

0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:51.880
<v Speaker 7>one for Lavert buck Ys, eight threes from Kevin Love

0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 7>as well, and another six threes from Dean Wade. Twenty

0:05:54.720 --> 0:05:57.840
<v Speaker 7>two threes between Mitchell, Love and Wade. That'll get the

0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:00.520
<v Speaker 7>job done. The Calves now are five and one after

0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:04.400
<v Speaker 7>two weeks, sixth in offense, second in defense. It's them,

0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:06.360
<v Speaker 7>the Suns and the Blazers who are in the top

0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:08.640
<v Speaker 7>ten on both sides of the ball right now. If

0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:11.160
<v Speaker 7>you do that for a whole season, you're a championship contender.

0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:13.600
<v Speaker 7>We shall see as time goes on. They've got an

0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:16.640
<v Speaker 7>MVP candidate, no doubt right now and Donovan Mitchell thirty

0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:19.880
<v Speaker 7>to a game, five rebounds, seven assists. He's at fifty

0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:22.279
<v Speaker 7>percent from the field forty five from three to eighty

0:06:22.320 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 7>five at the line. He's the first guy since Wilt

0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:29.440
<v Speaker 7>Chamberlain to go for thirty plus points in five out

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.440
<v Speaker 7>of six of games with his new team. That's the

0:06:32.480 --> 0:06:33.360
<v Speaker 7>most Chilly.

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:35.279
<v Speaker 1>Piper, God, you hate those type of stats? What are

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:37.520
<v Speaker 1>you doing? I hate those type of stats and less

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:38.480
<v Speaker 1>the name is.

0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:41.080
<v Speaker 7>Wilt Chamberlain on there, because I mean Will Chamberlain puts

0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.320
<v Speaker 7>up the most ridiculous stats in NBA history, So if

0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:44.719
<v Speaker 7>you get on a board with him and you're the

0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:46.680
<v Speaker 7>only guy on a board, I'll give you credit for that.

0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:49.040
<v Speaker 7>And oh yeah, let's not forget that the Cavs will

0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:51.560
<v Speaker 7>eventually get Darius Garland back at some point. They've basically

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:54.760
<v Speaker 7>been doing this the whole season, missing their all star

0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:55.800
<v Speaker 7>guard from last year.

0:06:55.960 --> 0:06:57.640
<v Speaker 1>So you said maybe the.

0:06:57.600 --> 0:07:01.240
<v Speaker 7>Pelicans or last season's Grizzlies, it also could be the Cavs.

0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 7>They were kind of last season's Grizzlies as well, but

0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:05.600
<v Speaker 7>they're even more last season's Grizzlies.

0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:07.440
<v Speaker 1>It's still early days, but I.

0:07:07.480 --> 0:07:09.560
<v Speaker 7>Kind of underrated how quickly they would be able to

0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:11.239
<v Speaker 7>click and figure things out together.

0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:12.440
<v Speaker 1>They look awesome right now.

0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:16.360
<v Speaker 5>It is wild how quickly they've just integrated a superstar

0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:19.560
<v Speaker 5>into their lineup. And Donovan Mitchell is a superstar right now.

0:07:19.880 --> 0:07:23.040
<v Speaker 5>We throw that word around, but man, he has just

0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:27.000
<v Speaker 5>rebounded like no one really expected from his Utah days

0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:29.560
<v Speaker 5>to go back to that guy in the playoffs that

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 5>looked like he could carry your team. And so much

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:34.960
<v Speaker 5>kudos to that caz organization for allowing a guy to

0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:37.640
<v Speaker 5>come into us a good situation even though they weren't

0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:39.560
<v Speaker 5>a playoff team last year they won forty four games.

0:07:39.680 --> 0:07:42.800
<v Speaker 5>To just be a superstar. How many organizations and cultures

0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:45.960
<v Speaker 5>could do that. I don't think there's many at all.

0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:52.400
<v Speaker 5>They've added a superstar to an incredible culture. I think

0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:54.960
<v Speaker 5>we forget. As you said, Darius Garland, he could be

0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:58.640
<v Speaker 5>the most sort of peeved about that, the most salty

0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:01.320
<v Speaker 5>about the emergence of another are just sort of taking over.

0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:05.560
<v Speaker 5>He's not there, obviously, but an incredible just guy, a

0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:09.920
<v Speaker 5>locker room presence. The way he is attacking the rim

0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.600
<v Speaker 5>every single time he gets into the lane, it's violent.

0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:16.320
<v Speaker 5>He is a new player in comparison to last year

0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:19.480
<v Speaker 5>with the Utah Jazz. That Cave Celtics game was just

0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:23.880
<v Speaker 5>crazy watching it live. The Celtics definitely missed Robert Williams

0:08:23.920 --> 0:08:27.040
<v Speaker 5>in that instance to be able to deal with a

0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:29.520
<v Speaker 5>relentless guy in Donna Mitchell. He looks like a new

0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:33.160
<v Speaker 5>player attacking the rim. Absolutely chef's kiss that Kris Slivert

0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:35.200
<v Speaker 5>went from forty plus in one game to one point

0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:39.240
<v Speaker 5>the other game, because that's Karslivert. Unfortunately, he's great one

0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:42.400
<v Speaker 5>game and sometimes he doesn't show up. But the fact

0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 5>that the Cavs have had a superstar to their mix

0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:46.760
<v Speaker 5>when they have two other All Stars plus a future

0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:51.720
<v Speaker 5>All Star and Evan Mobley, that is it's amazing. They

0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:54.120
<v Speaker 5>paid a lot for Donovan Mitchell. They paid so much

0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:57.760
<v Speaker 5>in the offseason and they are getting every pennies worth.

0:08:57.840 --> 0:09:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah right now, Yeah, We're going to see the result

0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:04.200
<v Speaker 1>the score from the Knicks game on Sunday with the Calves,

0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:06.960
<v Speaker 1>and you're gonna think it was an absolute blowout, one

0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.120
<v Speaker 1>twenty one to one away. It was the final score,

0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:11.959
<v Speaker 1>but it was so far from that. The Knicks were up,

0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:14.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, halfway through the fourth quarter, if I remember correctly,

0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:16.839
<v Speaker 1>it was a tight game. It was really entertaining game.

0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:19.199
<v Speaker 1>I know Fred Katz on the boulevard was tweeting left

0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.200
<v Speaker 1>and right about it. I was enjoying it. You know,

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Brunson was hitting big shots, they were sticking around, and

0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:27.200
<v Speaker 1>then just this explosion from Mitchell and Love. I think

0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:29.200
<v Speaker 1>they combined for like a twenty zero run where they

0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.800
<v Speaker 1>just could not miss threes, Dean Wade hitting a ton,

0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:34.920
<v Speaker 1>like Trey said, and it got us to this end result.

0:09:35.000 --> 0:09:36.880
<v Speaker 1>But you know, the Knicks put up a fight for

0:09:37.000 --> 0:09:39.560
<v Speaker 1>like a good forty two minutes. If you want to

0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:42.120
<v Speaker 1>call it that and it was just an onslaught from

0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:44.240
<v Speaker 1>the calves at the end, which was pretty special.

0:09:44.480 --> 0:09:48.600
<v Speaker 5>It was a cavalanche, Yeah, that's the word. Yea worldwide

0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:51.480
<v Speaker 5>threw out there. So that they did that a lot

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:55.120
<v Speaker 5>last year where the fourth quarters in that arena in

0:09:55.160 --> 0:09:57.640
<v Speaker 5>Cleveland just kind of came down on the other team

0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:01.080
<v Speaker 5>and the good vibes were were wild last year. You know,

0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:04.320
<v Speaker 5>smiles left and right, guys in the starting lineup, guys

0:10:04.320 --> 0:10:05.960
<v Speaker 5>in the bench. Is Kevin Love coming off the bench.

0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:09.280
<v Speaker 5>And that's carried over into this season. And so they

0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:11.960
<v Speaker 5>knew what kind of locker room they had when they

0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:15.360
<v Speaker 5>traded for Donovan mitchell It was only a couple months ago.

0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:20.320
<v Speaker 5>The entire basketball world was pretty down on Donovan Mitchells

0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:23.160
<v Speaker 5>as a player, as a leader, and you put him

0:10:23.160 --> 0:10:27.080
<v Speaker 5>into this situation and man, there's not many more players

0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:29.800
<v Speaker 5>that I love watching go into the lane like that.

0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:32.800
<v Speaker 5>I mean, because he's a smaller guy. He's been in

0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 5>the dunk contest before he won that thing. It wasn't

0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:38.880
<v Speaker 5>it's not that memorable of a dunk contest, but yeah,

0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:42.280
<v Speaker 5>it's violent the way he's going at the rim. It's fun, man,

0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:44.199
<v Speaker 5>It is fun just watching him and he takes over,

0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:45.800
<v Speaker 5>so him and Garland are gonna have to figure it

0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 5>out a little bit. But Garland is I think, pretty

0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:51.280
<v Speaker 5>comfortable in allowing Donovan Mitchell to be that number one guy.

0:10:51.360 --> 0:10:53.560
<v Speaker 5>So fifty wins on deck for this team. I don't

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:54.640
<v Speaker 5>think there's any doubt.

0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:56.559
<v Speaker 1>Do you think? And I heard them arguing or debating

0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:59.960
<v Speaker 1>this on the Athletic NBA Show podcasts. Are they contender?

0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:00.720
<v Speaker 5>Like?

0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:03.400
<v Speaker 1>Is this a legit team that could challenge for at

0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:06.319
<v Speaker 1>least a run to the NBA Finals? Are you putting

0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:09.160
<v Speaker 1>them there with the Bucks and a team like the

0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:11.560
<v Speaker 1>Celtics that they you know, just beat sweak out a

0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:14.440
<v Speaker 1>win or is that is that maybe one one step

0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:16.320
<v Speaker 1>too far this early in the season. What do you think?

0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:19.120
<v Speaker 7>I would think more so next season than this season.

0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:22.280
<v Speaker 7>It would have to be good matchups in the playoffs

0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:24.240
<v Speaker 7>for the Calves, but I could see them making a

0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:27.520
<v Speaker 7>run to the conference finals, similar to a Hawks team.

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.480
<v Speaker 1>Or to like the Mavericks last year.

0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:31.920
<v Speaker 7>I think they're going to have a tough time when

0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:35.760
<v Speaker 7>they're running up against big wings in a seven game series,

0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:38.440
<v Speaker 7>but during eighty two games during the regular season, they

0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:39.480
<v Speaker 7>could easily win fifty.

0:11:39.679 --> 0:11:43.560
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, They've got great little components to deal with Giannis

0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:46.640
<v Speaker 5>in their front line, so that that bodes well for

0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:49.200
<v Speaker 5>going into the finals with Jared Allen and Evan Mobile

0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:51.960
<v Speaker 5>if they can, if they can overcome that, I think

0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:54.240
<v Speaker 5>Evan Mobley on the offensive end, his growth is going

0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:58.280
<v Speaker 5>to be key to this because you know Jared Allen,

0:11:58.320 --> 0:11:59.600
<v Speaker 5>they can't just throw the ball to, but they can

0:11:59.640 --> 0:12:01.320
<v Speaker 5>throw the ball to Mitchell Garland. And if there's one

0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:03.280
<v Speaker 5>more guy, I think if Evan Mobley can be that guy.

0:12:03.280 --> 0:12:05.760
<v Speaker 5>And I said it last Friday, I said to watch

0:12:05.760 --> 0:12:07.480
<v Speaker 5>out these next few months. They are giving him the

0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:09.120
<v Speaker 5>ball and just allowing him to go one on one

0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:11.800
<v Speaker 5>because he's that freaking talented. So his growth I think

0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:16.520
<v Speaker 5>takes them from conference finalists, which they could achieve, to

0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:19.600
<v Speaker 5>NBA finalist. I think I think it's sort of on him.

0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:22.960
<v Speaker 5>But they bet on this future for like, as you said,

0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:24.360
<v Speaker 5>they could do it next year. They've bet on this

0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:27.640
<v Speaker 5>future for five years coming. They are so freaking young.

0:12:28.360 --> 0:12:30.320
<v Speaker 5>This is great. This is this is a really really

0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:31.760
<v Speaker 5>fun team that people should get behind.

0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:34.800
<v Speaker 1>All Right, Cavaliers. Big winner of the weekend tasks who

0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:35.400
<v Speaker 1>do you have next?

0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:38.400
<v Speaker 5>Well, just to piggyback on that. I think anyone who

0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:42.160
<v Speaker 5>sells dunk posters or still yeah they make them. Yeah,

0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:44.319
<v Speaker 5>there's purveyors of dunk posters. What are kids going to

0:12:44.360 --> 0:12:46.839
<v Speaker 5>have on their walls? Just NFTs? I mean you need,

0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:48.440
<v Speaker 5>you still need, you still need posters.

0:12:48.800 --> 0:12:48.959
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:53.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, if you're selling posters, you're selling n FTS. You're

0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:57.720
<v Speaker 5>selling desktop backgrounds for your computer. This was a good weekend.

0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:01.360
<v Speaker 5>There were great dunks out there. Let's go, let's go.

0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:04.240
<v Speaker 5>Let's start with Donovan Mitchell just to piggyback there, because

0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:07.160
<v Speaker 5>he had a monster on Luke Cornette of the Celtics

0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:10.800
<v Speaker 5>on Friday night. This is a foot difference between these

0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:14.080
<v Speaker 5>two humans, and he was able to just go over

0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:16.880
<v Speaker 5>Luke Cornett. I think we have a different angle JD.

0:13:16.960 --> 0:13:19.920
<v Speaker 5>If you're watching on YouTube, this one's more poster like

0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:23.760
<v Speaker 5>with Evan Mobley in the background as he's on the rise. Like,

0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:26.520
<v Speaker 5>I think this one is better because Luke Cornett is

0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:29.719
<v Speaker 5>over the rim and Donovan Mitchell is gonna get up

0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:33.360
<v Speaker 5>over Luke Cornett. You know, Donovan Mitchell does have a

0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:36.120
<v Speaker 5>little bit more hang time than just Au Cornett.

0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:40.760
<v Speaker 1>So anyway, that's like a classic Donovan Mitchell dunk post too.

0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:42.720
<v Speaker 1>His legs do that. Oh yeah, it looks like he's

0:13:42.800 --> 0:13:43.720
<v Speaker 1>running upstairs.

0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:47.079
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, he is hanging in the air. Is this is

0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:49.960
<v Speaker 5>a fun time if you're watching Cavs games. But in

0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:53.199
<v Speaker 5>that same game, another great poster from the other side,

0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:59.120
<v Speaker 5>Jalen Brown on Donovan Mitchell. This one was violent and

0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:04.080
<v Speaker 5>he added the cat gonna get this framed because he is, uh,

0:14:04.440 --> 0:14:06.480
<v Speaker 5>he is. That one was wild. He had Kevin Love

0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.480
<v Speaker 5>in the background there. And then Donovan Mitchell posted this

0:14:09.520 --> 0:14:15.880
<v Speaker 5>photo on Instagram. It's Jalen Brown kind of peering over

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:19.440
<v Speaker 5>a wall with the caption, bro won't leave me alone

0:14:19.480 --> 0:14:21.880
<v Speaker 5>because I think this is from the past. They appear

0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:24.560
<v Speaker 5>to be friends, Donovid Mitchell and Jalen Brown. But yeah,

0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:29.160
<v Speaker 5>Jalen Brown just absolutely gave it to Yeah. It was.

0:14:29.200 --> 0:14:31.080
<v Speaker 5>It was an incredible as a two on one fast

0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:35.520
<v Speaker 5>breakdown that they executed absolutely perfectly. And at least Donvin

0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:37.400
<v Speaker 5>Mitchell went to go block that thing, but Jalen Brown

0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:40.360
<v Speaker 5>just gave it to him. So posters. I was just thinking,

0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:43.360
<v Speaker 5>my posters are coming back and now in that one game, uh,

0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:45.680
<v Speaker 5>and then we had on Yaka and kong Wu who

0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.520
<v Speaker 5>I grabbed this still it's not a it's not a

0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:52.080
<v Speaker 5>beautiful still. You know, if you if you're, if you're

0:14:52.240 --> 0:14:57.000
<v Speaker 5>if you're gonna you're right, there's gonna be some way. Yeah,

0:14:57.120 --> 0:14:59.320
<v Speaker 5>one of the photoshop boys or Jerome is gonna have

0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:01.880
<v Speaker 5>to get on this to to create you know. I

0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:04.800
<v Speaker 5>just photoshop the ball in there. It's just a little blurry,

0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:09.480
<v Speaker 5>but anyways, it looks like Aka is riding Janistkumpo. He

0:15:09.640 --> 0:15:12.560
<v Speaker 5>had to put back dunk over his Nigerian brother there.

0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:15.520
<v Speaker 5>So that was a very cool moment. I thought watching

0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:18.480
<v Speaker 5>that live Andka has got he's got some big dunks

0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:23.000
<v Speaker 5>in his short NBA career. I could have thrown in

0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:26.000
<v Speaker 5>a shade and sharp his first career, first career start

0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:30.120
<v Speaker 5>that got future. Yeah, buying it, buying it. First career

0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:33.520
<v Speaker 5>start for the Blazers. Had three big dunks on Friday nights.

0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:38.000
<v Speaker 5>So it's a good time for high flyers in the league, nifters,

0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:42.640
<v Speaker 5>n f tears, as some called poster sellers. Whoever it was,

0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:44.800
<v Speaker 5>it was a really good weekend for high flyers for sure.

0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:46.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean Mitchell had won in the Knicks game too.

0:15:47.160 --> 0:15:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean the dunk itself wasn't on anybody, and he

0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:51.440
<v Speaker 1>actually just got it over the rim, but it was

0:15:51.480 --> 0:15:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the way he set it up with the spin in

0:15:53.040 --> 0:15:54.240
<v Speaker 1>the lane and then throwing it down.

0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:55.480
<v Speaker 5>It was huge.

0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:58.080
<v Speaker 1>It was huge, all right. My winner of the weekend.

0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I gotta go with Tyrese, Maxi and the seventy six

0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:05.760
<v Speaker 1>ers in general. Trey frank nine hundred twelve five to

0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:09.240
<v Speaker 1>two OHO tweeted this in Frank did Yeah, Sixers got

0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:11.680
<v Speaker 1>to be a winner of the weekend. They successfully completed

0:16:11.760 --> 0:16:15.480
<v Speaker 1>the no dunks back to back Friday win versus the Raptors,

0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Saturday win versus the Bulls. Frank numbers, Frankie numbers, you

0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:22.520
<v Speaker 1>got us. You're right. They took care of the no

0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:25.040
<v Speaker 1>dunks teams. Sixers did and they needed this as they

0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:28.160
<v Speaker 1>started slowly this season. But Maxi on Friday night versus

0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 1>the Raps pretty special. No one beat in the lineup

0:16:31.640 --> 0:16:33.920
<v Speaker 1>was out with the sore knee. Harden didn't do a

0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:35.840
<v Speaker 1>whole lot, and it didn't matter. Sixers took care of

0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:38.360
<v Speaker 1>business because Maxie couldn't miss. He had twenty seven points

0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:40.240
<v Speaker 1>in the first half. He was a perfect ten for ten,

0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:43.040
<v Speaker 1>ten for ten, knocking down all seven of his threes

0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:45.040
<v Speaker 1>there in the first half, and then it sort of

0:16:45.040 --> 0:16:48.000
<v Speaker 1>continued in the second half. Reps were hanging around, hanging around,

0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:50.520
<v Speaker 1>and then when they're trying to make that last push,

0:16:50.600 --> 0:16:52.400
<v Speaker 1>he said no, no, no, not tonight. He scored ten

0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:55.080
<v Speaker 1>points Maxi did in like a minute to put the

0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:57.520
<v Speaker 1>game out of reach. So added all up forty four

0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:00.760
<v Speaker 1>points on fifteen to twenty shooting nine to three pointers,

0:17:00.800 --> 0:17:03.160
<v Speaker 1>made eight boards, four assists, a steal. He was a

0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:05.880
<v Speaker 1>plus twenty nine in this game. And for all those

0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:08.200
<v Speaker 1>people I know, some of you here at the table

0:17:08.240 --> 0:17:11.159
<v Speaker 1>that were picking Maxi as a potential am IP or

0:17:11.200 --> 0:17:14.679
<v Speaker 1>even a first time All Star, you're looking like a

0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:18.320
<v Speaker 1>strong selection there in the preseason because this guy's unbelievable

0:17:18.359 --> 0:17:22.560
<v Speaker 1>and he owns the Raptors. Fred van Vliet is honestly

0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:24.520
<v Speaker 1>one of the better defenders at the point guard position

0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:27.440
<v Speaker 1>in this league. It doesn't matter Maxi destroys him every

0:17:27.440 --> 0:17:29.600
<v Speaker 1>time they play, to the point where you know you

0:17:29.680 --> 0:17:33.160
<v Speaker 1>got guys like Will Lou with the Raptors show saying nurse,

0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:36.880
<v Speaker 1>try something else, like he can't stop them. Put somebody long.

0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:39.840
<v Speaker 1>Garun On may throw something different at him, because Maxi

0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:41.919
<v Speaker 1>just gets whatever he wants against this team. But that

0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:44.120
<v Speaker 1>was big any thoughts there on the Friday Night victory

0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:45.440
<v Speaker 1>or MAXI starting the season that he.

0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:48.800
<v Speaker 5>Has well, yeah, I didn't pick him as most improved

0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:52.160
<v Speaker 5>like Trey did. I was already heavy on the Sixers

0:17:52.400 --> 0:17:54.800
<v Speaker 5>number one seed Joel and beat MVP, so I slowed

0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:58.119
<v Speaker 5>down with my MIP call. But how good could this

0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:01.320
<v Speaker 5>guy be when he is given the I just worry

0:18:01.359 --> 0:18:03.879
<v Speaker 5>for the Philadelphia to have any six Ers because the

0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:06.400
<v Speaker 5>similar question was brought up with Ben Simmons a couple

0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:08.399
<v Speaker 5>of years ago when Joel Embiid was out of the lineup.

0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:11.479
<v Speaker 5>Ben Simmons had a forty plus point game and he

0:18:11.520 --> 0:18:13.240
<v Speaker 5>was allowed to just go into the lane and do

0:18:13.280 --> 0:18:15.600
<v Speaker 5>what he wants. And they haven't been able to get

0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:17.280
<v Speaker 5>the most out of Tyrese Maxey because of the way

0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:19.679
<v Speaker 5>they play. They play one of the slowest paces in

0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:22.720
<v Speaker 5>years in the NBA. And I just wonder if Tyres

0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:24.960
<v Speaker 5>Maxy gets that lane and he's able to do what

0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:26.680
<v Speaker 5>he wants and able to handle the ball a little

0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:28.919
<v Speaker 5>bit more and Harden gives him a little bit more control,

0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:31.280
<v Speaker 5>how good he could be. They just haven't found the

0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:35.360
<v Speaker 5>balance quite yet, because this guy has some great some

0:18:35.400 --> 0:18:37.440
<v Speaker 5>great peaks, but he also has some valleys because he's

0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:40.000
<v Speaker 5>just not part of the game. Yes, it doesn't feel

0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:40.600
<v Speaker 5>like so they're not.

0:18:40.680 --> 0:18:42.959
<v Speaker 1>I think he's done an incredible job of he's been

0:18:43.119 --> 0:18:45.000
<v Speaker 1>trying to find his role with this team that has

0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:47.040
<v Speaker 1>him beat and then even harder now twenty three per

0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:48.240
<v Speaker 1>game on fifty percent shooting.

0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:50.200
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and I'm with you, they're not even using him

0:18:50.320 --> 0:18:53.199
<v Speaker 7>to the Maxi that they could be. He's incredible, and

0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:56.800
<v Speaker 7>they need his speed because of how slowly they play.

0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:59.280
<v Speaker 7>So there are definitely some balance issues I think with

0:18:59.320 --> 0:19:01.920
<v Speaker 7>the Sixers with Embiid is the number one guy you

0:19:01.960 --> 0:19:04.840
<v Speaker 7>would think, but Harden is back to almost Houston sort

0:19:04.840 --> 0:19:07.080
<v Speaker 7>of Harden, so he wants more of the possessions. And

0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:09.080
<v Speaker 7>max he's getting better and better every single year, so

0:19:09.119 --> 0:19:11.159
<v Speaker 7>he wants more possessions. It'll take a little bit of

0:19:11.200 --> 0:19:14.760
<v Speaker 7>time to figure it out. Not totally confident Doc Rivers

0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:17.639
<v Speaker 7>is the guy to map out the layout of the court,

0:19:17.760 --> 0:19:20.720
<v Speaker 7>but I've been encouraged with Maxi's start, even if he

0:19:20.760 --> 0:19:22.880
<v Speaker 7>hasn't totally caught the league by fire.

0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Outside of this Raptors game. Yeah, And then after the

0:19:24.800 --> 0:19:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Raptors game on Friday night, they go to Chicago take

0:19:26.720 --> 0:19:29.680
<v Speaker 1>on your bulls. And for the twelfth consecutive time, it

0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:32.480
<v Speaker 1>caught me by surprise. The Sixers beat the Bulls. Embiid.

0:19:32.960 --> 0:19:34.760
<v Speaker 1>He came back and had twenty five and hit a

0:19:34.800 --> 0:19:37.240
<v Speaker 1>big big three that he was open on late. That

0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:39.600
<v Speaker 1>was the one to push them over the edge. And

0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Sixers improved the three and four. And if you have

0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:44.360
<v Speaker 1>any thoughts on the Bulls game there, Embiid has never

0:19:44.440 --> 0:19:46.880
<v Speaker 1>lost to the Bulls so ever. I was not surprised

0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:48.960
<v Speaker 1>to see that. But you know, Joannis had never lost

0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:51.640
<v Speaker 1>to the balls until the playoffs last year. So save

0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:52.360
<v Speaker 1>it for April.

0:19:52.400 --> 0:19:54.879
<v Speaker 5>There you go, ye, and I'm glad. We we'll skim

0:19:54.920 --> 0:19:57.600
<v Speaker 5>over that. We'll skim over Fred van Vliet also, he

0:19:57.640 --> 0:19:59.960
<v Speaker 5>was oer for eleven in that game against Tyrese Maxie.

0:20:00.560 --> 0:20:01.360
<v Speaker 5>That was an odd one.

0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:04.480
<v Speaker 1>I thought we were gonna get the van Validat suffering

0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:06.280
<v Speaker 1>from injury X after that game.

0:20:06.480 --> 0:20:06.879
<v Speaker 5>We didn't.

0:20:06.880 --> 0:20:08.439
<v Speaker 1>We didn't. He just got his ass handed to him.

0:20:08.440 --> 0:20:11.400
<v Speaker 1>Had a really off night there, Trey. Let's keep it going.

0:20:11.760 --> 0:20:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Hold of the round we got for winning the weekend.

0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:15.800
<v Speaker 7>A couple of nice wins for the San Antonio Spurs

0:20:15.840 --> 0:20:19.200
<v Speaker 7>this weekend. Let's just say here, they beat the Chicago

0:20:19.280 --> 0:20:22.560
<v Speaker 7>Bulls on Friday. Unfortunately a fun fourth quarter in this game.

0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:25.040
<v Speaker 7>The Bulls right now just can't win on the weekends,

0:20:25.119 --> 0:20:27.280
<v Speaker 7>that's the problem. They beat Chicago one hundred and twenty

0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:29.359
<v Speaker 7>nine to one hundred and twenty four. Keep that number

0:20:29.359 --> 0:20:32.080
<v Speaker 7>in your brain. Spurs also held on to beat the

0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:35.520
<v Speaker 7>Timberwolves on Sunday night one hundred to seven to ninety eight,

0:20:35.560 --> 0:20:37.520
<v Speaker 7>the first time this season that Minnesota has been under

0:20:37.520 --> 0:20:40.800
<v Speaker 7>one hundred points. I do think, however, that the Timberwolves

0:20:40.840 --> 0:20:43.560
<v Speaker 7>win is the outlier for San Antonio here because they've

0:20:43.600 --> 0:20:46.280
<v Speaker 7>been winning with offense and pace tenth in the league

0:20:46.359 --> 0:20:48.920
<v Speaker 7>right now. In offense, the Spurs are they're playing at

0:20:48.920 --> 0:20:51.040
<v Speaker 7>the third fastest pace in the league, and they're shooting

0:20:51.080 --> 0:20:53.600
<v Speaker 7>a ton of threes sixth in makes in the early

0:20:53.680 --> 0:20:56.640
<v Speaker 7>days of the season. Right now, Kelton Johnson has really

0:20:56.640 --> 0:20:58.560
<v Speaker 7>been the man for this team. He was great all weekend.

0:20:58.600 --> 0:21:00.960
<v Speaker 7>Thirty three against the Bulls. He had threes twenty five

0:21:00.960 --> 0:21:04.399
<v Speaker 7>against the Timberwolves, another five threes twenty four per game

0:21:04.640 --> 0:21:06.760
<v Speaker 7>on forty five from the field, forty three from three.

0:21:07.240 --> 0:21:10.480
<v Speaker 7>He looks skinnier like they called him big body. Keldon

0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:12.480
<v Speaker 7>Johnson for the past couple of seasons. He had a

0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:15.119
<v Speaker 7>twenty rebound game, but they said he lost twenty pounds

0:21:15.160 --> 0:21:18.040
<v Speaker 7>coming into this season. His face looks way different. He

0:21:18.080 --> 0:21:20.960
<v Speaker 7>looks quicker, but he's still a really strong guy. Kind

0:21:21.000 --> 0:21:22.639
<v Speaker 7>of flings the ball when he shoots it. You know,

0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:24.679
<v Speaker 7>he's got a little bit of a catapult release. But

0:21:24.880 --> 0:21:27.920
<v Speaker 7>it's money right now. So great weekend for the Spurs

0:21:27.960 --> 0:21:30.600
<v Speaker 7>on the court, considering they had a bunch of off

0:21:30.600 --> 0:21:33.200
<v Speaker 7>court drama with Josh Primo being released for being a creep.

0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah I mean, and they acted quickly by all accounts

0:21:36.240 --> 0:21:38.320
<v Speaker 1>of Spurs did. Primo was a tolth pick for those

0:21:38.359 --> 0:21:40.560
<v Speaker 1>who don't know last year's draft twenty twenty one. He's

0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:44.000
<v Speaker 1>nineteen years old, and Spurs waived him surprisingly on Friday.

0:21:44.000 --> 0:21:47.160
<v Speaker 1>Cut everybody buy surprise was like what. ESPN sighting sources

0:21:47.200 --> 0:21:51.720
<v Speaker 1>reported that Primo after had multiple alleged instances of him

0:21:51.760 --> 0:21:54.959
<v Speaker 1>exposing himself to women. San Antonio Express News also confirm

0:21:55.040 --> 0:21:59.440
<v Speaker 1>that Primo had a statement soon after that saying he's,

0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:02.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, seek help to deal with previous trauma that

0:22:02.600 --> 0:22:06.720
<v Speaker 1>he suffered and this so Spurs moving very quickly here

0:22:06.800 --> 0:22:10.200
<v Speaker 1>tasks and rightfully so if you know these are these

0:22:10.280 --> 0:22:12.679
<v Speaker 1>multiple legends are true, and I would assume they sort

0:22:12.720 --> 0:22:13.160
<v Speaker 1>of are here.

0:22:13.640 --> 0:22:16.800
<v Speaker 5>Yes, we hadn't heard a thing about them prior to

0:22:16.960 --> 0:22:20.560
<v Speaker 5>Josh Primo being released and yeah, just entering his second season,

0:22:21.280 --> 0:22:25.600
<v Speaker 5>it seemed obviously very odd. Took everyone by Spries. They

0:22:25.680 --> 0:22:29.240
<v Speaker 5>just gave him his player option as well, exercised that

0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:32.159
<v Speaker 5>player option for his fourth year, and have moved on

0:22:32.240 --> 0:22:34.840
<v Speaker 5>very quickly. So hopefully Josh Primo, as the Spurs said

0:22:34.840 --> 0:22:37.960
<v Speaker 5>in their release, gets the help that he needs and

0:22:38.280 --> 0:22:42.160
<v Speaker 5>corrects his life real quick. That was unbelievable, I thought.

0:22:42.440 --> 0:22:45.080
<v Speaker 5>In a different way. What was also unbelievable that Wolves

0:22:45.080 --> 0:22:49.720
<v Speaker 5>and Spurs playing three times in a week like they

0:22:49.720 --> 0:22:51.440
<v Speaker 5>had it back to back, and now they're playing again

0:22:51.560 --> 0:22:54.119
<v Speaker 5>on Sunday and the Spurs beat them two out of

0:22:54.160 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 5>three times in the same way where they just weren't

0:22:57.680 --> 0:23:00.640
<v Speaker 5>all that intense defensively, And we talked about it last

0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:03.760
<v Speaker 5>week and the same thing just happened again on Sunday

0:23:04.200 --> 0:23:06.399
<v Speaker 5>and Karl Anthony Town's after the game saying, yeah, we

0:23:06.600 --> 0:23:11.359
<v Speaker 5>just weren't weren't strong, weren't energetic, didn't have the defensive intensity.

0:23:12.040 --> 0:23:13.879
<v Speaker 5>Chris Finch saying it was sort of us are on

0:23:13.960 --> 0:23:16.080
<v Speaker 5>the ball defense, which you know, well, people, if you

0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:19.480
<v Speaker 5>want a quick solution or a quick reason why that's happened,

0:23:19.520 --> 0:23:22.040
<v Speaker 5>Patrick Beverly is gone, and maybe they don't have that

0:23:22.600 --> 0:23:24.960
<v Speaker 5>defense intensity on the perimeter anymore. They don't have the

0:23:25.000 --> 0:23:28.399
<v Speaker 5>intensity throughout the lineup, even though people thought Rudy Gobert

0:23:28.440 --> 0:23:32.160
<v Speaker 5>would correct that. So, yeah, they're a team that's fine

0:23:32.200 --> 0:23:34.560
<v Speaker 5>overall in terms of the record, but when you watch them,

0:23:34.600 --> 0:23:36.720
<v Speaker 5>it isn't fun to watch. And it was interesting to

0:23:36.720 --> 0:23:38.760
<v Speaker 5>see at the end of the game Greg Popovich go

0:23:38.840 --> 0:23:41.640
<v Speaker 5>up to Karl Anthony Towns and have a pretty long

0:23:41.680 --> 0:23:45.040
<v Speaker 5>pow wow. He got into Karl Anthony Town's ear, and

0:23:45.320 --> 0:23:48.160
<v Speaker 5>you know, when Greg speaks, I'm sure Karl Anthony Towns listens.

0:23:48.600 --> 0:23:50.880
<v Speaker 5>Carlington Towns thought he was going for quick handshake and out,

0:23:51.359 --> 0:23:54.880
<v Speaker 5>but Greg pulled the man, let me listen, Son, your

0:23:55.080 --> 0:23:59.200
<v Speaker 5>you have the ability, you have all the God given

0:23:59.280 --> 0:24:03.280
<v Speaker 5>tools and whatever whatever else is. I shouldn't correct that.

0:24:03.359 --> 0:24:05.639
<v Speaker 5>I shouldn't correct that. I sound like an analyst. I

0:24:05.640 --> 0:24:08.040
<v Speaker 5>sound like Mark Jackson saying, and he said when he

0:24:08.080 --> 0:24:10.000
<v Speaker 5>went up for his three point shot, you know like

0:24:10.040 --> 0:24:12.200
<v Speaker 5>I'm putting the words in Pop's mouth, but I assume

0:24:12.359 --> 0:24:15.320
<v Speaker 5>it was, hey, Carl, let's get this together. You are

0:24:16.119 --> 0:24:19.720
<v Speaker 5>you have it all? So yeah, the Wolves start has

0:24:19.760 --> 0:24:21.480
<v Speaker 5>been even though the record again is.

0:24:21.560 --> 0:24:24.119
<v Speaker 1>They beat the Lakers luckily on what was that Friday night?

0:24:24.359 --> 0:24:27.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, they squeezed one out and yeah that didn't look

0:24:27.640 --> 0:24:29.880
<v Speaker 5>all that good either, But Anthony Davis wasn't in that game,

0:24:30.040 --> 0:24:32.080
<v Speaker 5>So we won't harp on the Wolves too much. We

0:24:32.119 --> 0:24:33.920
<v Speaker 5>did it last week, but not a great start for them.

0:24:33.960 --> 0:24:35.680
<v Speaker 1>Who else you got then for a winner of the weekend.

0:24:35.800 --> 0:24:36.600
<v Speaker 4>Let's go another game.

0:24:36.720 --> 0:24:40.399
<v Speaker 5>Another small market team here with the Oklahoma City Thunder

0:24:40.400 --> 0:24:43.080
<v Speaker 5>that people weren't expecting a lot of this season, sort

0:24:43.080 --> 0:24:46.520
<v Speaker 5>of like the San Antonio Spurs. They're three and three, baby,

0:24:46.560 --> 0:24:49.960
<v Speaker 5>they have won three straight and they are not a pushover.

0:24:50.040 --> 0:24:53.800
<v Speaker 5>Anytime you see them on the basketball floor, they're gonna defend.

0:24:53.800 --> 0:24:57.359
<v Speaker 5>They have the sixth best defense, and that comeback that

0:24:57.400 --> 0:24:59.760
<v Speaker 5>they had this weekend against the Mavericks Saturday, it was

0:25:00.160 --> 0:25:03.320
<v Speaker 5>all about defense. This is a pretty unique team because

0:25:03.560 --> 0:25:07.040
<v Speaker 5>they can't shoot, but they're still winning. This is a

0:25:07.080 --> 0:25:09.520
<v Speaker 5>stat here because their defense is getting it done. I

0:25:09.600 --> 0:25:11.600
<v Speaker 5>like this stat. Last season there were seventy two games

0:25:11.640 --> 0:25:15.160
<v Speaker 5>where a team shot twenty percent or worse from three,

0:25:15.520 --> 0:25:18.560
<v Speaker 5>those teams were eight and sixty four in those games.

0:25:19.080 --> 0:25:21.639
<v Speaker 5>Can't shoot the three. Everybody's talking about the math these days.

0:25:21.880 --> 0:25:24.400
<v Speaker 5>You lose games eight and sixty four. Okay, So here's

0:25:24.440 --> 0:25:26.919
<v Speaker 5>two to zero in games like that so far this season.

0:25:27.000 --> 0:25:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Just bad shooting where they shots and.

0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:33.280
<v Speaker 5>They won because they can defend all baby cakes. Thank

0:25:33.320 --> 0:25:36.720
<v Speaker 5>you on Twitter for that stat. But the final four

0:25:36.760 --> 0:25:40.119
<v Speaker 5>to fourteen minutes of the final four to fourteen of

0:25:40.160 --> 0:25:43.359
<v Speaker 5>the fourth against the Mavericks on Saturday, the MAVs were

0:25:43.440 --> 0:25:45.800
<v Speaker 5>up sixteen four to fourteen left and the MAVs only

0:25:45.800 --> 0:25:47.520
<v Speaker 5>scored two points the rest of the way. In the

0:25:47.560 --> 0:25:51.280
<v Speaker 5>fourth quarter, lou Dort was guarding Luka Doncic down the

0:25:51.280 --> 0:25:54.720
<v Speaker 5>stretch and then Luca was asked postgame, how about that,

0:25:54.760 --> 0:25:57.560
<v Speaker 5>lou Dort, huh, and he said, well, he is one

0:25:57.600 --> 0:26:02.840
<v Speaker 5>of the top three defenders in the game. Wow podcast, Yeah,

0:26:02.960 --> 0:26:05.600
<v Speaker 5>very very good for Yeah, maybe it's Straymond Green who

0:26:05.600 --> 0:26:07.399
<v Speaker 5>has a podcast that is the other one of the

0:26:07.480 --> 0:26:11.479
<v Speaker 5>other top three. Luca did not elaborate, he wasn't asked,

0:26:11.520 --> 0:26:13.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't think. But a great compliment for Ludor who

0:26:13.880 --> 0:26:16.480
<v Speaker 5>was guarding Luca. Also, you know one of the great

0:26:16.480 --> 0:26:19.720
<v Speaker 5>defenders on ok SEE their best player Shay Gills, is

0:26:19.760 --> 0:26:22.320
<v Speaker 5>Alexander Skeets. He might not be waiting too long for

0:26:22.359 --> 0:26:23.240
<v Speaker 5>that All Star.

0:26:23.480 --> 0:26:25.560
<v Speaker 1>If they stay five hundred, you can lock him in

0:26:25.600 --> 0:26:27.639
<v Speaker 1>as an All Star. My god, it's just gonna be

0:26:27.680 --> 0:26:29.520
<v Speaker 1>the record because he's on fire right now.

0:26:29.560 --> 0:26:32.280
<v Speaker 5>This guy is fun. In that game, he was thirty

0:26:32.320 --> 0:26:34.439
<v Speaker 5>eight points, six s, boards, nine and sis, two steals,

0:26:34.480 --> 0:26:36.440
<v Speaker 5>one block, eight for eight from the line. He hasn't

0:26:36.440 --> 0:26:38.760
<v Speaker 5>missed a free throw this season, and he only took

0:26:38.800 --> 0:26:42.600
<v Speaker 5>two threes. He's Andre Miller like he's a little old school.

0:26:42.680 --> 0:26:45.600
<v Speaker 5>He knows that he can't shoot the three all that well,

0:26:45.640 --> 0:26:48.439
<v Speaker 5>and he's so squamy he can get wherever he wants.

0:26:48.520 --> 0:26:49.080
<v Speaker 4>He can.

0:26:49.560 --> 0:26:53.320
<v Speaker 5>So he's averaging thirty one on the season, fifty and

0:26:53.440 --> 0:26:56.439
<v Speaker 5>thirty seven in terms of his percentages, seven assists, two

0:26:56.440 --> 0:26:58.800
<v Speaker 5>point four steals, and one point two blocks one point

0:26:58.840 --> 0:27:01.080
<v Speaker 5>two blocks with this guy per game. So he scored

0:27:01.080 --> 0:27:03.760
<v Speaker 5>twenty four between twenty four and thirty eight in each

0:27:03.800 --> 0:27:07.080
<v Speaker 5>of his five games. Are those are fun sort of

0:27:07.320 --> 0:27:10.280
<v Speaker 5>top end guys on this team, But Sam Presty has

0:27:10.320 --> 0:27:12.960
<v Speaker 5>built it up pretty well, I mean, they didn't have

0:27:13.080 --> 0:27:17.040
<v Speaker 5>Josh Giddey on Saturday. Didn't matter. Isaiah Joe came in

0:27:17.080 --> 0:27:20.560
<v Speaker 5>at last four thirty and yeah, where did you come from?

0:27:20.760 --> 0:27:24.240
<v Speaker 5>He came from Philly. But he hasn't he hasn't played

0:27:24.240 --> 0:27:27.360
<v Speaker 5>a lot in this league. He hadn't played the entire game.

0:27:27.359 --> 0:27:30.400
<v Speaker 5>Four thirty left in the fourth quarter, Hey, Isaiah, get

0:27:30.400 --> 0:27:33.920
<v Speaker 5>in there. He scored seven in the last few minutes

0:27:33.960 --> 0:27:36.600
<v Speaker 5>of regulation, then eight in overtime for his fifteen points.

0:27:36.680 --> 0:27:39.520
<v Speaker 5>Jalen Williams came back. He hadn't played since the first

0:27:39.520 --> 0:27:42.520
<v Speaker 5>game of the season. He was injured, broke that orbital bone.

0:27:42.560 --> 0:27:45.000
<v Speaker 5>He's playing with a mask. Looks weird. He hates it,

0:27:45.240 --> 0:27:47.720
<v Speaker 5>but he was key in the fourth. He had thirteen overall.

0:27:48.000 --> 0:27:50.880
<v Speaker 5>So this over under win total projected at twenty three

0:27:50.960 --> 0:27:54.240
<v Speaker 5>and a half for this team. Overs looking good right now.

0:27:54.760 --> 0:27:58.119
<v Speaker 5>The Spurs, I guess too, Yeah, no doubt. Yeah, Like,

0:27:58.200 --> 0:28:00.120
<v Speaker 5>what is going on with these three teams?

0:28:00.560 --> 0:28:03.399
<v Speaker 1>Even the Hornets, I mean are like a lot of

0:28:03.480 --> 0:28:05.399
<v Speaker 1>us thought myself for sure, thought they might be the

0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:08.280
<v Speaker 1>worst team in the league. And they're they're scrappy pulling

0:28:08.320 --> 0:28:11.800
<v Speaker 1>out some wins here. Yeah, so incredible start. By from

0:28:11.800 --> 0:28:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Shay here though, and the Thunder and Spurs. I'm glad

0:28:14.240 --> 0:28:16.159
<v Speaker 1>we're showing some love to these small market teams that

0:28:16.280 --> 0:28:17.080
<v Speaker 1>we get talked about.

0:28:17.240 --> 0:28:19.720
<v Speaker 5>We'll get to the mass falling apart there a little

0:28:19.760 --> 0:28:24.240
<v Speaker 5>bit at the end. But at the same time, Okay,

0:28:24.280 --> 0:28:25.280
<v Speaker 5>see's tough to play against.

0:28:25.320 --> 0:28:28.720
<v Speaker 1>The are some mini winners. I'm gonna throw them at you, guys.

0:28:29.520 --> 0:28:31.800
<v Speaker 1>The Bucks have to be continue to be a winner

0:28:31.800 --> 0:28:33.439
<v Speaker 1>of the weekend because they're still ndefeated. They're the only

0:28:33.520 --> 0:28:35.840
<v Speaker 1>undefeated team in the league. And the Hawks put up

0:28:35.840 --> 0:28:38.040
<v Speaker 1>a fight against them on Saturday night, and the night

0:28:38.080 --> 0:28:40.400
<v Speaker 1>before they took care of the Knicks. So they just

0:28:40.480 --> 0:28:42.760
<v Speaker 1>keep winning. They look like the best team in the league.

0:28:43.360 --> 0:28:45.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, they don't even have like their full squad

0:28:45.840 --> 0:28:47.400
<v Speaker 1>here and they're taking care of business. So the Bucks

0:28:47.400 --> 0:28:49.240
<v Speaker 1>a winner of the weekend. Got to show some love

0:28:49.280 --> 0:28:52.040
<v Speaker 1>to all the teams that got their first w this weekend.

0:28:52.040 --> 0:28:54.560
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about the Orlando Magic, We're talking about the

0:28:54.600 --> 0:28:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Sacramento Kings, yeah, and the Los Angeles Lakers. Tasks. They

0:28:59.560 --> 0:29:01.360
<v Speaker 1>all get their first win, and a big part of

0:29:01.400 --> 0:29:04.160
<v Speaker 1>that last two games actually with the Lakers, Russell Westbrook,

0:29:04.200 --> 0:29:07.040
<v Speaker 1>you've been calling for it coming off the bench. And

0:29:07.360 --> 0:29:10.720
<v Speaker 1>yesterday there on Sunday, eighteen points eight boards, eight assists, uh,

0:29:10.760 --> 0:29:13.200
<v Speaker 1>and they were pumped and they gave Darvin Ham. They

0:29:13.240 --> 0:29:15.760
<v Speaker 1>poured water on Darvin Ham, sort of like a sloppy steak.

0:29:15.800 --> 0:29:20.400
<v Speaker 1>When you think about it, Dangerous Night's crew called the Lakers.

0:29:22.040 --> 0:29:29.760
<v Speaker 7>I love like that tight white shirt with the yeah.

0:29:29.560 --> 0:29:31.640
<v Speaker 1>On the happy cho yeah exactly.

0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:34.160
<v Speaker 5>That would have been great. They could have turned around

0:29:34.160 --> 0:29:37.320
<v Speaker 5>and gone out in l a Halloween.

0:29:37.640 --> 0:29:44.080
<v Speaker 1>A suiot chicken lee. The Lakers used to be a

0:29:44.080 --> 0:29:49.960
<v Speaker 1>piece of ships. Could change, that's the motto. So anyway,

0:29:49.960 --> 0:29:52.080
<v Speaker 1>they all got their first victory. There anything about the

0:29:52.120 --> 0:29:53.840
<v Speaker 1>Westbrook part of it all, because you have been saying

0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:54.360
<v Speaker 1>this for a while.

0:29:54.880 --> 0:29:56.200
<v Speaker 5>Doesn't he look so much happy?

0:29:56.320 --> 0:29:56.760
<v Speaker 1>What's happy?

0:29:57.120 --> 0:29:57.560
<v Speaker 4>No doubt.

0:29:57.840 --> 0:29:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean he could just play.

0:29:58.800 --> 0:30:00.800
<v Speaker 5>Like himself a little bit more in his hands when

0:30:00.840 --> 0:30:02.400
<v Speaker 5>he comes off the bench. So I think it just

0:30:02.480 --> 0:30:06.000
<v Speaker 5>makes sense. And he had his most efficient night of

0:30:06.000 --> 0:30:09.440
<v Speaker 5>the season hanging out in the corners after touching the ball.

0:30:09.480 --> 0:30:11.479
<v Speaker 5>I think, just just getting comfortable with the ball. Then

0:30:11.480 --> 0:30:12.960
<v Speaker 5>he goes to the corner, and then that three point

0:30:12.960 --> 0:30:15.320
<v Speaker 5>percentage I think will go up just because you know

0:30:15.400 --> 0:30:18.240
<v Speaker 5>he's just in the game war you see, it happens

0:30:18.360 --> 0:30:20.400
<v Speaker 5>in every NBA game. A player gets a little bit

0:30:20.400 --> 0:30:22.960
<v Speaker 5>more confidence, see the balls goes through, just is a

0:30:23.000 --> 0:30:25.800
<v Speaker 5>little more bit more comfortable. And yeah, they look like

0:30:25.920 --> 0:30:30.680
<v Speaker 5>an entirely different squad. After one w they are one

0:30:30.720 --> 0:30:31.360
<v Speaker 5>in five.

0:30:31.560 --> 0:30:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah the recorded it.

0:30:34.040 --> 0:30:37.360
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but yeah they needed it. But I don't know

0:30:37.760 --> 0:30:40.280
<v Speaker 5>the fact that they've been playing hard defensively, like this

0:30:40.320 --> 0:30:42.320
<v Speaker 5>team is still altogether. We'll get to another one in

0:30:42.400 --> 0:30:44.360
<v Speaker 5>five team, you know, after a quick break, we get

0:30:44.400 --> 0:30:47.080
<v Speaker 5>to the losers of the weekend, where it looks entirely

0:30:47.120 --> 0:30:49.640
<v Speaker 5>different the way they play basketball. I know the Lakers

0:30:49.760 --> 0:30:52.560
<v Speaker 5>don't have lasers and don't have shooting and don't have anyone,

0:30:52.880 --> 0:30:56.840
<v Speaker 5>you know, really to compliment what Anthony Davis and Lebron

0:30:56.920 --> 0:31:00.320
<v Speaker 5>James are. But at least they're playing hard. Iran has

0:31:00.360 --> 0:31:02.040
<v Speaker 5>them playing hard in the fact that they're you know,

0:31:02.120 --> 0:31:05.040
<v Speaker 5>splashing him at the after the game they're in the

0:31:05.040 --> 0:31:10.880
<v Speaker 5>locker room. That's best one in five team in NBA history.

0:31:10.920 --> 0:31:11.640
<v Speaker 1>What a take?

0:31:11.920 --> 0:31:13.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't know, but I think that's true.

0:31:13.960 --> 0:31:16.200
<v Speaker 1>They got a thirteen three. That's just gonnay, that's the

0:31:16.240 --> 0:31:16.560
<v Speaker 1>big thing.

0:31:16.640 --> 0:31:19.719
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, they've been good defensively, they're playing hard defensively. They

0:31:19.760 --> 0:31:21.960
<v Speaker 7>can score inside with Lebron and Ad it's just a

0:31:22.000 --> 0:31:24.280
<v Speaker 7>matter of are they going to make shots from the outside.

0:31:24.400 --> 0:31:27.560
<v Speaker 7>Thirteen for thirty forty three percent. That's like a week

0:31:27.560 --> 0:31:30.640
<v Speaker 7>of basketball games for the Lakers usually, So shout out

0:31:30.640 --> 0:31:32.680
<v Speaker 7>to them taking it down the best one in five

0:31:32.720 --> 0:31:34.719
<v Speaker 7>team in the NBA. I would love to see some

0:31:34.720 --> 0:31:35.240
<v Speaker 7>stats on that.

0:31:35.360 --> 0:31:40.640

<v Speaker 5>about Themarga Rozze, Well he joined the even more exclusive club.

0:33:07.840 --> 0:33:11.280
<v Speaker 5>About of twenty thousand point scores who aren't in the hall,

0:33:11.360 --> 0:33:14.480
<v Speaker 5>you're Tom Chambers, you're Antoine Jamison.

0:33:14.600 --> 0:33:15.960
<v Speaker 1>Got to save that man. We got to say that.

0:33:17.560 --> 0:33:19.280
<v Speaker 5>There's just a few of those. There's just a few

0:33:19.320 --> 0:33:20.240
<v Speaker 5>of those great.

0:33:20.280 --> 0:33:22.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we've talked about it, like, is the bar

0:33:22.400 --> 0:33:24.040
<v Speaker 1>just gonna it's gonna go higher, It's going to have

0:33:24.080 --> 0:33:26.520
<v Speaker 1>to go higher. I'm gonna have to final piece of

0:33:26.520 --> 0:33:29.640
<v Speaker 1>news here and a winner for Boyon. Bogdanovitch signed a

0:33:29.640 --> 0:33:33.440
<v Speaker 1>two year, thirty nine point one million dollar extension with

0:33:33.480 --> 0:33:36.320
<v Speaker 1>the Pistons. UH. For those that don't know, he arrived

0:33:36.320 --> 0:33:39.840
<v Speaker 1>from the Jazz in the preseason by way of a trade.

0:33:40.000 --> 0:33:41.880
<v Speaker 1>He was entering the final year of his contract here

0:33:42.040 --> 0:33:45.560
<v Speaker 1>earning a nineteen point five million and he's off to

0:33:45.600 --> 0:33:48.360
<v Speaker 1>an incredible start for Detroit and they're winning some games.

0:33:48.520 --> 0:33:51.800
<v Speaker 1>He's averaged twenty three points. Bogdanovic has on fifty two

0:33:51.840 --> 0:33:54.200
<v Speaker 1>point six percent shooting from the floor and fifty one

0:33:54.240 --> 0:33:58.000
<v Speaker 1>percent from deep on over seven attempts per game. He's

0:33:58.080 --> 0:34:02.040
<v Speaker 1>trying to lets it fly and and the Pistons decide

0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:04.720
<v Speaker 1>to give him the extension here first, were you shocked

0:34:04.720 --> 0:34:06.240
<v Speaker 1>at all by this because we had talked about, like

0:34:06.560 --> 0:34:08.920
<v Speaker 1>this might just be a slick move from Detroit to

0:34:09.000 --> 0:34:12.440
<v Speaker 1>like have a potential guy that they can move at

0:34:12.440 --> 0:34:14.480
<v Speaker 1>the deadline and get more back than what they gave

0:34:14.560 --> 0:34:16.160
<v Speaker 1>up to get him, like maybe a pick or something

0:34:16.200 --> 0:34:16.400
<v Speaker 1>like that.

0:34:16.480 --> 0:34:18.560
<v Speaker 5>But seemed like an asset play when they got him

0:34:18.560 --> 0:34:19.360
<v Speaker 5>from Utah.

0:34:20.040 --> 0:34:22.680
<v Speaker 1>But it could still be. It could still Yeah, I

0:34:22.719 --> 0:34:24.400
<v Speaker 1>think the second year James Edward, the third for the

0:34:24.440 --> 0:34:25.880
<v Speaker 1>athletic side is partially guaranteed.

0:34:26.280 --> 0:34:28.600
<v Speaker 5>It seems like they're they're trying to win next year

0:34:28.719 --> 0:34:31.600
<v Speaker 5>or the year after. Yeah. Yeah, and he fits the bill.

0:34:31.719 --> 0:34:34.960
<v Speaker 5>He's a winning player. I know, he's kind of I

0:34:35.000 --> 0:34:37.040
<v Speaker 5>don't know if the word is overlooked, I guess in

0:34:37.080 --> 0:34:40.360
<v Speaker 5>the NBA, but he's a he's a great third, complimentary player.

0:34:40.480 --> 0:34:43.640
<v Speaker 5>If you know, Caid can take it to the next level.

0:34:44.360 --> 0:34:46.960
<v Speaker 5>He's he's had an incredible career. He's had to guard

0:34:47.040 --> 0:34:49.839
<v Speaker 5>Lebron when he was with the Pacers. He's a guy

0:34:49.880 --> 0:34:52.440
<v Speaker 5>who was drafted at the beginning of the second round

0:34:52.560 --> 0:34:56.680
<v Speaker 5>and then has after starting or after staying in Europe

0:34:56.719 --> 0:34:58.279
<v Speaker 5>for a few years. His played like it was going

0:34:58.320 --> 0:34:59.560
<v Speaker 5>to be over a decade here.

0:35:00.160 --> 0:35:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. He didn't come to the league until he was

0:35:01.680 --> 0:35:02.319
<v Speaker 1>like twenty five.

0:35:02.400 --> 0:35:04.799
<v Speaker 5>Yeahs old. Yeah, and then so this will pay him,

0:35:04.880 --> 0:35:06.880
<v Speaker 5>you know if that last year is guaranteed through the

0:35:06.880 --> 0:35:09.000
<v Speaker 5>age of thirty six. The guy is just a baller.

0:35:09.040 --> 0:35:13.120
<v Speaker 5>He'll take on the defensive assignments. He's he's a tough dude,

0:35:13.320 --> 0:35:16.279
<v Speaker 5>and he'll score over twenty a game, yeah, efficiently.

0:35:16.680 --> 0:35:19.040
<v Speaker 1>So that's a twenty million dollar player in So are they.

0:35:18.920 --> 0:35:21.160
<v Speaker 5>Trying are they trying to win? Are they playing the

0:35:21.200 --> 0:35:23.440
<v Speaker 5>long game? I guess they think that kid can take

0:35:23.480 --> 0:35:25.920
<v Speaker 5>that next step and he can be there for them.

0:35:25.960 --> 0:35:27.359
<v Speaker 5>I guess they could trade him at any time too,

0:35:27.400 --> 0:35:28.680
<v Speaker 5>because that's a tradable.

0:35:28.920 --> 0:35:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Tradable contract.

0:35:29.600 --> 0:35:32.239
<v Speaker 7>It's a fine contract for like you're saying, a third

0:35:32.280 --> 0:35:34.880
<v Speaker 7>option that can start for probably most teams if they

0:35:34.880 --> 0:35:38.080
<v Speaker 7>don't have a lockdown like this is our number three guy.

0:35:38.480 --> 0:35:40.000
<v Speaker 7>So yeah, this is a This is good stuff, and

0:35:40.040 --> 0:35:41.440
<v Speaker 7>Kaid's turned it on a little bit. He had a

0:35:41.480 --> 0:35:43.840
<v Speaker 7>really nice weekend after starting slow the first week of

0:35:43.880 --> 0:35:46.120
<v Speaker 7>the season. And I certainly think that this could be

0:35:46.160 --> 0:35:48.799
<v Speaker 7>traded down the line if they wanted next season. Maybe

0:35:48.840 --> 0:35:50.799
<v Speaker 7>even makes it easier saying, hey, look you got him

0:35:50.800 --> 0:35:52.040
<v Speaker 7>for another two years after this.

0:35:52.480 --> 0:35:52.719
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:35:52.920 --> 0:35:54.680
<v Speaker 1>Also, the Pistons were set to have a ton of

0:35:54.680 --> 0:35:57.360
<v Speaker 1>cap space this offseason, and even with this extension, I

0:35:57.440 --> 0:36:01.239
<v Speaker 1>think they have tons of financial flexible and wiggle room

0:36:01.320 --> 0:36:04.520
<v Speaker 1>to add more free agents or to make trades. And

0:36:04.800 --> 0:36:07.240
<v Speaker 1>they probably honestly were looking at like the free agent

0:36:07.440 --> 0:36:10.560
<v Speaker 1>class coming up to and we're not wowed by it,

0:36:11.360 --> 0:36:14.080
<v Speaker 1>especially when you consider all of the rookie extensions that

0:36:14.120 --> 0:36:18.000
<v Speaker 1>we saw in Barrettpool Hero Hunter. I mean they're you know,

0:36:18.040 --> 0:36:20.600
<v Speaker 1>they're off the market now and they're thinking, I don't

0:36:20.600 --> 0:36:22.320
<v Speaker 1>think we're gonna do better than this, so we'll just

0:36:22.360 --> 0:36:24.279
<v Speaker 1>lock him up at the price he basically is at now.

0:36:24.560 --> 0:36:26.640
<v Speaker 1>And he's delivering for them too. I mean, that's the thing.

0:36:27.120 --> 0:36:30.440
<v Speaker 1>It's an incredible start from the season. So there you go, Agdanovich,

0:36:30.480 --> 0:36:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Winter of the Weekend getting paid a little bit more.

0:36:33.040 --> 0:36:35.040
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna take our first break when we come back.

0:36:35.400 --> 0:36:39.239

0:36:50.680 --> 0:36:53.480
<v Speaker 1>thousand people watching, there's like one hundred and fifty likes.

<v Speaker 1>and losers of the Weekend, which we now go to

<v Speaker 1>and task. My man, oh boy, here we go. Get

0:37:03.800 --> 0:37:07.000
<v Speaker 1>us started with your big loser of the NBA Weekend.

0:37:07.160 --> 0:37:09.800
<v Speaker 5>I got this, Brooklyn nets one let's do this one.

0:37:10.080 --> 0:37:11.920
<v Speaker 5>To me, it started on the basketball floor. I was

0:37:11.960 --> 0:37:14.560
<v Speaker 5>watching that game against the Indiana Pacers on Saturday, and

0:37:14.600 --> 0:37:17.880
<v Speaker 5>it felt like rock bottom for this one in five team.

0:37:18.520 --> 0:37:20.480
<v Speaker 5>I don't know what rock bottom is for this Brooklyn

0:37:20.480 --> 0:37:23.479
<v Speaker 5>Nets team. I don't We may have not gotten there yet.

0:37:23.480 --> 0:37:26.120
<v Speaker 5>But the way that Kevin Durant was hanging his head

0:37:26.800 --> 0:37:29.680
<v Speaker 5>was just emotionally drained. It felt like coming off the bench,

0:37:30.200 --> 0:37:32.319
<v Speaker 5>this dude is just scoring thirty plus per game and

0:37:32.320 --> 0:37:37.319
<v Speaker 5>they just keep on losing. He is, Yeah, it's it's

0:37:37.800 --> 0:37:42.239
<v Speaker 5>entirely my size here, my noise is here. It just

0:37:42.600 --> 0:37:45.080
<v Speaker 5>it is exactly what's going on with the Brooklyn Nets, Like,

0:37:45.120 --> 0:37:48.279
<v Speaker 5>what is going on there? They must be extremely frustrated.

0:37:49.080 --> 0:37:50.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't want to play body language doctor, but I

0:37:50.920 --> 0:37:52.920
<v Speaker 5>got to. I got to with Kevin Durant. He just

0:37:52.960 --> 0:37:56.200
<v Speaker 5>looks like he's not into it.

0:37:55.400 --> 0:37:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Going through the motions.

0:37:56.480 --> 0:38:00.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean he's scoring points, yeah yeah, yeah, But

0:38:00.280 --> 0:38:03.160
<v Speaker 5>I think you've got to be frustrated, you know, comparing

0:38:03.160 --> 0:38:05.680
<v Speaker 5>it to the Brooklyn or the Los Angeles Lakers situation.

0:38:06.800 --> 0:38:08.520
<v Speaker 5>You've got two guys at the top of this roster,

0:38:08.600 --> 0:38:11.080
<v Speaker 5>and Kyrie and Kevin Durant, who are scoring thirty plus

0:38:11.120 --> 0:38:13.839
<v Speaker 5>per game. They're averaging thirty plus per game. What more

0:38:13.840 --> 0:38:17.480
<v Speaker 5>can those guys do offensively? But their third guy who

0:38:17.480 --> 0:38:19.160
<v Speaker 5>gets paid a lot, and Ben Simmons is just not

0:38:19.280 --> 0:38:22.360
<v Speaker 5>adding enough to this team. And then their effort guys

0:38:22.640 --> 0:38:26.640
<v Speaker 5>aren't efforting enough, and their defense just absolutely stinks. They

0:38:26.680 --> 0:38:31.560
<v Speaker 5>got obliterated in the effort department against an Indiana Pacers team.

0:38:32.480 --> 0:38:36.080
<v Speaker 5>This Brooklyn Nets team was had lost three in a

0:38:36.160 --> 0:38:38.800
<v Speaker 5>row going into this game, so you'd think the Pacers

0:38:38.840 --> 0:38:40.800
<v Speaker 5>coming in, we're going to get a win. This Pacers

0:38:40.840 --> 0:38:43.360
<v Speaker 5>team is not expected to do much this year, but

0:38:43.440 --> 0:38:46.840
<v Speaker 5>they were out rebounded by nineteen by the Indiana Pacers.

0:38:46.880 --> 0:38:49.359
<v Speaker 5>So you think Miles Turner probably had twenty boards. Now

0:38:49.360 --> 0:38:53.480
<v Speaker 5>he wasn't even playing. They just they just were getting

0:38:53.560 --> 0:38:56.000
<v Speaker 5>killed by a bunch of guys on this roster, up

0:38:56.040 --> 0:38:58.319
<v Speaker 5>and down this roster that were trying harder than them.

0:38:58.560 --> 0:39:02.360
<v Speaker 5>Thirteen more offensive rebound and look, I think the frustration

0:39:03.640 --> 0:39:06.160
<v Speaker 5>what the hell are we doing here? Partly is we're

0:39:06.200 --> 0:39:08.480
<v Speaker 5>hitting half of our shots. They hit fifty of their

0:39:08.480 --> 0:39:11.920
<v Speaker 5>shots in this game, but still got trampled because they

0:39:11.960 --> 0:39:14.319
<v Speaker 5>allowed a lot of open looks to the Pacers. They

0:39:14.440 --> 0:39:18.200
<v Speaker 5>hit half their threes and allowed so many rebounds. So

0:39:19.239 --> 0:39:22.720
<v Speaker 5>their number three guy isn't helping out enough. They're tiny,

0:39:23.600 --> 0:39:29.160
<v Speaker 5>and you know, beyond their top two guys, they're not

0:39:29.160 --> 0:39:32.320
<v Speaker 5>getting enough on this roster. And then we go postgame,

0:39:32.719 --> 0:39:37.279
<v Speaker 5>after this horrific, horrific game, they had a player's only

0:39:37.320 --> 0:39:40.239
<v Speaker 5>meeting after this game, the first players only meeting I

0:39:40.280 --> 0:39:42.520
<v Speaker 5>think of the season if we look around the NBA,

0:39:42.680 --> 0:39:46.520
<v Speaker 5>I think so after getting trampled by this Pacers team,

0:39:46.800 --> 0:39:49.239
<v Speaker 5>and they're getting a rematch tonight, so we'll see how

0:39:49.239 --> 0:39:51.919
<v Speaker 5>they respond in these two game baseball sets. The same

0:39:51.920 --> 0:39:56.000
<v Speaker 5>thing happening tonight Indiana in Brooklyn. But also postgame, Kyrie

0:39:56.160 --> 0:39:59.879
<v Speaker 5>Irving's media session was pretty eventful, so if you don't

0:39:59.880 --> 0:40:05.600
<v Speaker 5>know backstory, Kyrie Irving tweeted his followers informing them about

0:40:05.600 --> 0:40:09.000
<v Speaker 5>a movie, a movie which shut demonizes the Jewish people.

0:40:09.320 --> 0:40:13.800
<v Speaker 5>It's the classic tropes about an entire race of people,

0:40:14.560 --> 0:40:21.200
<v Speaker 5>conspiracy theory garbage, unfortunately, and Kyrie defended it postgame. He said,

0:40:21.760 --> 0:40:23.960
<v Speaker 5>when asked about it, did I do anything illegal? Did

0:40:23.960 --> 0:40:29.000
<v Speaker 5>I hurt anybody? Did I harm anybody? And as an influencer,

0:40:29.160 --> 0:40:32.479
<v Speaker 5>as a person with such a big platform, the answer

0:40:32.560 --> 0:40:34.919
<v Speaker 5>is absolutely yes. Even though he wants to take little

0:40:34.920 --> 0:40:37.480
<v Speaker 5>pieces and parts of the movie that he tweeted about,

0:40:38.320 --> 0:40:41.879
<v Speaker 5>there is a larger message in this movie and there's

0:40:41.920 --> 0:40:46.200
<v Speaker 5>tons of little bits of information which are disgusting and

0:40:46.560 --> 0:40:50.360
<v Speaker 5>contribute to a lot of the anti Semitic attacks that

0:40:50.400 --> 0:40:52.239
<v Speaker 5>are happening in the US. They're at an all time

0:40:52.320 --> 0:40:54.319
<v Speaker 5>high in twenty twenty one. It's been happening year after

0:40:54.360 --> 0:40:57.200
<v Speaker 5>year after year, especially on the heels of what happened

0:40:57.239 --> 0:41:00.719
<v Speaker 5>with Kanye West recently. I mean it's happening everywhere. People

0:41:00.719 --> 0:41:03.520
<v Speaker 5>are jumping on the Kanye West band wagon, and those

0:41:03.560 --> 0:41:08.440
<v Speaker 5>messages matter from these people, regardless if Kyrie, you know,

0:41:08.680 --> 0:41:13.399
<v Speaker 5>is good intention well intentioned or not. It's it's extremely sad.

0:41:13.440 --> 0:41:16.040
<v Speaker 5>It shouldn't be happening. And you know the NBA and

0:41:16.080 --> 0:41:21.040
<v Speaker 5>the NETS owner Joe Syrelea's statements condemning it. Although you

0:41:21.160 --> 0:41:25.680
<v Speaker 5>had Kanye West endorsing Kyrie Irving backing him, he put

0:41:25.719 --> 0:41:28.360
<v Speaker 5>up up a photo of Kyrie Irving on his Instagram

0:41:28.400 --> 0:41:31.200
<v Speaker 5>account saying, Oh, he's a real one. I mean he's

0:41:31.239 --> 0:41:33.000
<v Speaker 5>a real one in terms of not knowing what the

0:41:33.040 --> 0:41:35.640
<v Speaker 5>heck he's doing out there, that this is This is damaging,

0:41:35.640 --> 0:41:39.200
<v Speaker 5>it's dangerous, and people are going to be attacked because

0:41:39.239 --> 0:41:42.399
<v Speaker 5>they start to believe the crap that they are are

0:41:42.480 --> 0:41:48.160
<v Speaker 5>given from stars. And Kyrie since deleted the tweet and

0:41:48.200 --> 0:41:48.680
<v Speaker 5>there's that.

0:41:49.320 --> 0:41:52.680
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, it's it's pretty sure double down in this yeah,

0:41:53.000 --> 0:41:54.879
<v Speaker 1>press conference, whatever you want to call it. That game.

0:41:55.000 --> 0:41:56.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, again, he was doubling down on the parts that

0:41:57.040 --> 0:42:01.680
<v Speaker 5>he believes are whatever. You know, that stuff absolutely just

0:42:02.239 --> 0:42:05.399
<v Speaker 5>it doesn't matter. It's part of a bigger message from

0:42:05.400 --> 0:42:09.160
<v Speaker 5>this movie, in this book, which are you know, there's

0:42:09.280 --> 0:42:12.200
<v Speaker 5>so much anti semitism in it if you read about

0:42:12.200 --> 0:42:15.920
<v Speaker 5>it and try and understand it. And he's got too

0:42:15.960 --> 0:42:18.319
<v Speaker 5>big a platform to just be thinking that he can

0:42:18.480 --> 0:42:21.640
<v Speaker 5>just you know, tweet one little thing and nothing else matters.

0:42:21.680 --> 0:42:24.400
<v Speaker 5>So it's unfortunate. It's very, very unfortunate.

0:42:24.920 --> 0:42:27.600
<v Speaker 7>I think it's just dangerous and super dishonest the way

0:42:27.600 --> 0:42:30.279
<v Speaker 7>he's going about it. Maybe somebody hasn't been hurt specifically

0:42:30.360 --> 0:42:33.839
<v Speaker 7>after a Kyrie Irving tweet, but people can and will

0:42:33.880 --> 0:42:37.560
<v Speaker 7>be hurt being exposed to the things that he's linking to.

0:42:37.640 --> 0:42:40.399
<v Speaker 7>I also think it's so dishonest where he's like, I'm

0:42:40.400 --> 0:42:42.840
<v Speaker 7>such a big influence in my community, and then in

0:42:42.880 --> 0:42:45.040
<v Speaker 7>the same answer he says, I have no influence in

0:42:45.080 --> 0:42:45.560
<v Speaker 7>my community.

0:42:45.560 --> 0:42:46.560
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't make sense to me.

0:42:46.680 --> 0:42:49.200
<v Speaker 7>He wants a reaction, and then when there's a reaction,

0:42:49.239 --> 0:42:50.799
<v Speaker 7>he doesn't want to have a dialogue about it.

0:42:50.840 --> 0:42:51.759
<v Speaker 1>You're exactly right.

0:42:52.000 --> 0:42:54.480
<v Speaker 7>He's become the NBA's Kanye West, and you're kind of

0:42:54.520 --> 0:42:56.680
<v Speaker 7>going down the wrong path when that's the guy agreeing

0:42:56.680 --> 0:43:00.319
<v Speaker 7>with you. So very disappointing from Kyrie. But it's been

0:43:00.320 --> 0:43:02.799
<v Speaker 7>about four years of being disappointed and Kyrie and the

0:43:02.800 --> 0:43:05.520
<v Speaker 7>way he has been trying to lead or whatever you

0:43:05.520 --> 0:43:07.080
<v Speaker 7>want to call it, since he's got to the Nets.

0:43:07.160 --> 0:43:10.359
<v Speaker 1>Do you think the Nets or the League will do

0:43:10.400 --> 0:43:14.040
<v Speaker 1>anything else besides statements? And let's be honest, the NBA

0:43:14.160 --> 0:43:17.600
<v Speaker 1>said nothing in their statement, very toothless. I guess Josiah

0:43:17.600 --> 0:43:19.920
<v Speaker 1>and the Nets said a little bit more in naming

0:43:20.160 --> 0:43:25.400
<v Speaker 1>you know him. Will there be more consequences to pushing

0:43:25.960 --> 0:43:27.720
<v Speaker 1>very dangerous and false ideas?

0:43:29.400 --> 0:43:32.600
<v Speaker 5>That's highly unlikely. I don't think so. I mean, it's

0:43:32.600 --> 0:43:35.240
<v Speaker 5>on the heels of a few months ago tweeting about

0:43:36.440 --> 0:43:43.000
<v Speaker 5>secret societies in America, which you know, obviously being perpetuated,

0:43:43.120 --> 0:43:47.680
<v Speaker 5>is being amplified in the US and on social media accounts.

0:43:47.719 --> 0:43:51.280
<v Speaker 5>I mean it started as you know, sort of humorous,

0:43:51.320 --> 0:43:54.279
<v Speaker 5>innocuous stuff way back when we flat earthed it. You know,

0:43:54.360 --> 0:43:57.799
<v Speaker 5>that was some that was sort of the beginning of it.

0:43:58.360 --> 0:44:02.240
<v Speaker 5>And then yeah, these these little bits come out and

0:44:02.840 --> 0:44:05.359
<v Speaker 5>now it's getting far more dangerous. So should something be done.

0:44:05.400 --> 0:44:07.920
<v Speaker 5>Apparently he's gonna meet with Josie and talk about it.

0:44:08.080 --> 0:44:08.239
<v Speaker 1>But.

0:44:09.840 --> 0:44:12.279
<v Speaker 5>No, it is it's unfortunate. I mean it rings sort

0:44:12.280 --> 0:44:15.720
<v Speaker 5>of like what happened with Stephen Jackson last year. Because

0:44:15.880 --> 0:44:18.360
<v Speaker 5>I say that because it's it's sort of The unfortunate

0:44:18.400 --> 0:44:22.160
<v Speaker 5>part is Kyrie does speak up for Native American issues,

0:44:22.360 --> 0:44:24.600
<v Speaker 5>and sort Steven Jackson was speaking up for the Black

0:44:24.600 --> 0:44:26.560
<v Speaker 5>Lives Matter movement at the same time, and then all

0:44:26.600 --> 0:44:30.520
<v Speaker 5>of a sudden come these anti semitic tropes that literally

0:44:30.560 --> 0:44:33.240
<v Speaker 5>get people killed. I mean, it was happening this weekend.

0:44:33.239 --> 0:44:37.160
<v Speaker 5>There was a message message projected on the Florida Gators

0:44:38.120 --> 0:44:40.560
<v Speaker 5>Georgia Bulldog's game on the outside of the arena that

0:44:40.680 --> 0:44:42.879
<v Speaker 5>Kanye West was right about the Jews. I mean, it's

0:44:42.920 --> 0:44:45.640
<v Speaker 5>being amplified and perpetuated and this stuff just has to

0:44:45.680 --> 0:44:49.000
<v Speaker 5>be squashed. And that's why these attacks were that the

0:44:49.080 --> 0:44:51.000
<v Speaker 5>highest and twenty twenty one because of stuff like this.

0:44:51.200 --> 0:44:53.840
<v Speaker 5>So it is on him. It's he just has to

0:44:53.920 --> 0:44:55.680
<v Speaker 5>understand that, as he said, he has to understand his

0:44:55.680 --> 0:44:58.160
<v Speaker 5>platform and he can't just can't just pick and choose

0:44:58.160 --> 0:45:01.560
<v Speaker 5>and say message was good. I was doing something.

0:45:01.600 --> 0:45:03.759
<v Speaker 1>I like this, Yeah, that's the thing. Okay, you're gonna

0:45:03.760 --> 0:45:06.120
<v Speaker 1>post this crazy. But then when you're asked about it,

0:45:06.400 --> 0:45:08.880
<v Speaker 1>you can't refuse to explain why you're doing it. And

0:45:08.880 --> 0:45:11.399
<v Speaker 1>also you're promoting it. That's like, this is the part.

0:45:11.560 --> 0:45:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Like now, like the conversation about this whole press conference

0:45:14.000 --> 0:45:16.120
<v Speaker 1>is like, oh my god, Nick Fredelli go pushing really

0:45:16.120 --> 0:45:18.600
<v Speaker 1>hard on this, Like he's asking him, He's like, you

0:45:18.680 --> 0:45:21.200
<v Speaker 1>promoted it, and he's saying, no, I didn't, No, I didn't.

0:45:21.239 --> 0:45:24.120
<v Speaker 1>I just put a link up. Come on, That's what

0:45:24.160 --> 0:45:27.600
<v Speaker 1>you're doing. Anytime I tweet, you tweet whatever, no matter

0:45:27.680 --> 0:45:29.960
<v Speaker 1>your audience, especially when you have an audience of millions.

0:45:30.000 --> 0:45:33.640
<v Speaker 1>But no matter your audience, you are promoting the definition

0:45:33.719 --> 0:45:37.440
<v Speaker 1>of the word whatever it is you're directing people towards. Yeah,

0:45:37.480 --> 0:45:39.880
<v Speaker 1>so that was I just can't believe. Then the conversation

0:45:40.040 --> 0:45:42.440
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh my god, about how could Nick Fredell

0:45:42.480 --> 0:45:45.880
<v Speaker 1>a reporter actually ask him to explain himself of what

0:45:45.920 --> 0:45:46.160
<v Speaker 1>do you.

0:45:47.960 --> 0:45:51.239
<v Speaker 7>And Kanye to me both want to speak and have

0:45:51.400 --> 0:45:52.960
<v Speaker 7>people listen and not have it.

0:45:53.120 --> 0:45:54.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, go the other way.

0:45:54.800 --> 0:45:57.920
<v Speaker 7>And so no surprise that Kyrie was getting more upset

0:45:57.960 --> 0:46:00.960
<v Speaker 7>with the phraseology of the question and then actually what

0:46:01.040 --> 0:46:03.319
<v Speaker 7>was being discussed. They're giving him a chance to apologize

0:46:03.320 --> 0:46:06.120
<v Speaker 7>every single interview like that is giving somebody a chance

0:46:06.120 --> 0:46:08.040
<v Speaker 7>to apologize, and Kyrie's not going to do it.

0:46:08.400 --> 0:46:09.560
<v Speaker 1>So what does that tell you about him?

0:46:09.600 --> 0:46:09.759
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:46:09.800 --> 0:46:11.600
<v Speaker 1>I think Bruce Arthur said this in the Tronto Star

0:46:12.360 --> 0:46:16.040
<v Speaker 1>that the blowback convinces the contrarian mind of how right

0:46:16.120 --> 0:46:19.040
<v Speaker 1>he must be. And that too, like Kyrie spot on,

0:46:19.160 --> 0:46:23.799
<v Speaker 1>Kanye spot on, and it's it's it's crazy. Let's keep going,

0:46:24.280 --> 0:46:26.319
<v Speaker 1>loser of the weekend. Back to the basketball floor, there

0:46:26.360 --> 0:46:28.440
<v Speaker 1>we go. What do you got? Well?

0:46:28.760 --> 0:46:31.040
<v Speaker 7>The Lakers, the Nets and the Sixers are providing cover

0:46:31.120 --> 0:46:33.120
<v Speaker 7>for a lot of teams, I feel like, and one

0:46:33.120 --> 0:46:35.400
<v Speaker 7>of them, no doubt, is the LA Clippers, who are

0:46:35.440 --> 0:46:38.440
<v Speaker 7>really struggling. They've got four straight losses after losing to

0:46:38.480 --> 0:46:43.319
<v Speaker 7>the Pelicans by thirty yesterday. In related news, possibly four

0:46:43.360 --> 0:46:45.759
<v Speaker 7>straight games without Kawhi Leonard looks like he's going to

0:46:45.800 --> 0:46:49.040
<v Speaker 7>be out again tonight. No real clue when he's going

0:46:49.080 --> 0:46:50.680
<v Speaker 7>to be coming back. We knew there would be some

0:46:51.239 --> 0:46:54.200
<v Speaker 7>management of his knee injuries, certainly coming into the season,

0:46:54.600 --> 0:46:57.360
<v Speaker 7>but I don't think anybody expected him to play a

0:46:57.440 --> 0:46:59.640
<v Speaker 7>handful of minutes off the bench in two games and

0:46:59.640 --> 0:47:02.239
<v Speaker 7>then be out for another week. So weird stuff for

0:47:02.280 --> 0:47:04.919
<v Speaker 7>the Clippers in that department. On the court, the people

0:47:04.920 --> 0:47:07.520
<v Speaker 7>who are playing are struggle ing twenty ninth in offense,

0:47:07.719 --> 0:47:10.799
<v Speaker 7>they're leading the league in turnovers. They're forcing the fewest turnovers,

0:47:10.920 --> 0:47:13.360
<v Speaker 7>so you're getting six or seven extra shots. Basically, if

0:47:13.400 --> 0:47:15.680
<v Speaker 7>you're the other team and they're twenty ninth and made threes,

0:47:15.760 --> 0:47:19.000
<v Speaker 7>that's kind of like the Clippers id or identification.

0:47:19.280 --> 0:47:21.799
<v Speaker 1>What am I trying to say? Identity right there?

0:47:21.920 --> 0:47:24.680
<v Speaker 7>They make threes, they force turnovers because they're playing small

0:47:24.719 --> 0:47:27.600
<v Speaker 7>and fast. It ain't happening so far. So I'm looking

0:47:27.640 --> 0:47:30.120
<v Speaker 7>sideways at Paul George right now. He's at nineteen points

0:47:30.160 --> 0:47:33.040
<v Speaker 7>per game, six rebounds, four assists, thirty eight from the

0:47:33.040 --> 0:47:35.400
<v Speaker 7>field in twenty six from three. He came into the

0:47:35.400 --> 0:47:38.279
<v Speaker 7>season saying he's number two for the Clippers. But if

0:47:38.360 --> 0:47:40.400
<v Speaker 7>Kawhi's gonna be missing this much time. We need to

0:47:40.400 --> 0:47:42.760
<v Speaker 7>see Paul George knocking on the door of the MVP

0:47:42.920 --> 0:47:46.799
<v Speaker 7>table kind of thing. Performances from him. So disappointing all

0:47:46.800 --> 0:47:50.120
<v Speaker 7>around from the Clippers. Their offense is just driving kick

0:47:50.200 --> 0:47:52.319
<v Speaker 7>for the most part, So I'm not totally surprised if

0:47:52.360 --> 0:47:53.839
<v Speaker 7>they don't have their main driving kick.

0:47:53.920 --> 0:47:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Guys that they're not doing well. But I thought the.

0:47:56.600 --> 0:47:58.120
<v Speaker 7>Clippers will be a little bit better than this to

0:47:58.160 --> 0:47:59.400
<v Speaker 7>start the season and they are not.

0:48:00.000 --> 0:48:02.080
<v Speaker 1>One thing we do in the first couple of weeks

0:48:02.080 --> 0:48:04.680
<v Speaker 1>of the season task is are we pressing the panic

0:48:04.719 --> 0:48:07.280
<v Speaker 1>button when it comes to, you know, a particular team's

0:48:07.360 --> 0:48:09.480
<v Speaker 1>rough start. Are you doing it with the Clippers here?

0:48:10.080 --> 0:48:14.040
<v Speaker 5>I'm I'm not just hovering over the panic button. I'm

0:48:14.160 --> 0:48:19.439
<v Speaker 5>gently pressing it. Yeah, I can't bang on it quite

0:48:19.520 --> 0:48:24.400
<v Speaker 5>yet because Kauhi hasn't played a lot. But at the

0:48:24.400 --> 0:48:26.120
<v Speaker 5>same time, you want to press it because Kuai hasn't

0:48:26.120 --> 0:48:29.560
<v Speaker 5>played a lot, the fact that his knee management is

0:48:29.640 --> 0:48:32.200
<v Speaker 5>already an issue to start this season, and yeah, you

0:48:32.239 --> 0:48:36.400
<v Speaker 5>can just say, of course they they're just being somewhat

0:48:36.440 --> 0:48:40.440
<v Speaker 5>careful here, but he's been out for a long time.

0:48:40.520 --> 0:48:43.319
<v Speaker 5>Prior to this season. He has played in only two

0:48:43.360 --> 0:48:45.360
<v Speaker 5>of the six games to start. It's going to be

0:48:45.360 --> 0:48:48.680
<v Speaker 5>two of seven after tonight. So Paul George needs his

0:48:48.760 --> 0:48:52.480
<v Speaker 5>number one and he is, I think trying to take

0:48:52.520 --> 0:48:54.640
<v Speaker 5>it slow into the season. I think that's what Paul

0:48:54.680 --> 0:48:57.799
<v Speaker 5>George is doing. He's just trying to get to the playoffs.

0:48:57.960 --> 0:49:00.399
<v Speaker 5>And I know Skeetzy were saying that you didn't really

0:49:00.400 --> 0:49:04.840
<v Speaker 5>believe in this team. All these all the the pundits,

0:49:04.880 --> 0:49:06.800
<v Speaker 5>you know, putting a lot of praise on the Clippers

0:49:06.880 --> 0:49:10.200
<v Speaker 5>before the season, thinking that the roster on paper makes sense.

0:49:10.200 --> 0:49:13.200
<v Speaker 5>But they need their lead guys to be playing like

0:49:13.320 --> 0:49:16.040
<v Speaker 5>lead guys, and I don't. I think Paul George has

0:49:16.080 --> 0:49:19.040
<v Speaker 5>another level. He can play better, but I don't know

0:49:19.040 --> 0:49:20.480
<v Speaker 5>if he wants to right right now.

0:49:20.600 --> 0:49:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I was tricked by the Brooklyn Nets and believing

0:49:22.800 --> 0:49:25.240
<v Speaker 1>in them. I wasn't being tricked by the Los Angeles

0:49:25.239 --> 0:49:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Clippers in the Western Conference. Is that big part of it?

0:49:27.719 --> 0:49:30.600
<v Speaker 1>Of course is these guys just never play, And yeah,

0:49:30.600 --> 0:49:32.440
<v Speaker 1>it's bad. I couldn't believe the seventeen and a half

0:49:32.440 --> 0:49:34.279
<v Speaker 1>turnovers brigade. That is a hell of a lot of

0:49:34.320 --> 0:49:37.359
<v Speaker 1>turnovers from a team that when you don't have your guys. Yeah,

0:49:37.400 --> 0:49:39.759
<v Speaker 1>everybody's got to contribute. You can't beat yourself, and that's

0:49:39.800 --> 0:49:43.359
<v Speaker 1>what they're doing. So but yeah, two and four, I mean,

0:49:44.080 --> 0:49:45.880
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna always have to like go back to what

0:49:45.880 --> 0:49:48.680
<v Speaker 1>the Celtics did last year all season long. Whoever starts poorly,

0:49:48.680 --> 0:49:51.080
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna have to go. Yeah, but Boston they turned

0:49:51.080 --> 0:49:55.160
<v Speaker 1>it around. But Boston, so you know, it's not over.

0:49:56.239 --> 0:49:58.360
<v Speaker 1>But it's also a loaded Western Conference and at a

0:49:58.400 --> 0:50:00.960
<v Speaker 1>certain point you're gonna get too far hind where you're

0:50:01.000 --> 0:50:03.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna hurt your chances of seating being on the road,

0:50:04.320 --> 0:50:07.480
<v Speaker 1>going through the Juggernauts and like making it very very

0:50:07.480 --> 0:50:10.359
<v Speaker 1>difficult to then go to a to a finals. And

0:50:10.360 --> 0:50:12.759
<v Speaker 1>that's they're like, that's what they want here. It's not

0:50:13.000 --> 0:50:15.680
<v Speaker 1>win a first round. Oh yeah, it's a disappointment at

0:50:15.680 --> 0:50:19.120
<v Speaker 1>this point. It's it's it's really to be a finalist,

0:50:19.160 --> 0:50:21.279
<v Speaker 1>if not win the title. So man, I'm not making

0:50:21.320 --> 0:50:24.160
<v Speaker 1>it easy with this pretty piss poor start here. I'm

0:50:24.200 --> 0:50:26.800
<v Speaker 1>a little worried maybe the twenty tens are just over finally.

0:50:26.880 --> 0:50:29.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, Lebron at the bottom of the standings, Clippers

0:50:29.560 --> 0:50:32.680
<v Speaker 1>at the bottom of the standings, Kevin Durant at the

0:50:32.719 --> 0:50:34.480
<v Speaker 1>bottom of the standings with the Nets. All the best

0:50:34.480 --> 0:50:37.120
<v Speaker 1>players from the twenty tens, wow, are on bad teams,

0:50:37.120 --> 0:50:39.120
<v Speaker 1>and all the best players from the twenty twenties are

0:50:39.160 --> 0:50:41.279
<v Speaker 1>on the best teams. We're old guys.

0:50:41.360 --> 0:50:44.040
<v Speaker 7>He's happening in the NFL as well. Tom Brady sucks,

0:50:44.040 --> 0:50:46.200
<v Speaker 7>Aaron Rodgers sucks, Russell Wilson sucks.

0:50:46.280 --> 0:50:49.760
<v Speaker 1>Jesus. I guess this is growing up. That's my Halloween costume,

0:50:50.000 --> 0:50:54.320
<v Speaker 1>old guy, old, old, dilapidated muscles.

0:50:54.640 --> 0:50:58.359
<v Speaker 5>And that's the difference between the Boston Celtics of last

0:50:58.440 --> 0:51:01.080
<v Speaker 5>year and the Clippers of this year. The best players

0:51:01.520 --> 0:51:03.160
<v Speaker 5>are old. The Celtics were not.

0:51:03.280 --> 0:51:03.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, I know.

0:51:03.800 --> 0:51:06.439
<v Speaker 5>The Celtics are kind of a veteran team this year

0:51:06.520 --> 0:51:09.400
<v Speaker 5>with Brogden and Horford, and they've got some older guys.

0:51:09.840 --> 0:51:13.239
<v Speaker 5>I think they're seventh oldest team, while the Clippers are

0:51:13.440 --> 0:51:16.080
<v Speaker 5>the fourth oldest team and their lead guys just haven't

0:51:16.080 --> 0:51:18.399
<v Speaker 5>played enough. The scary part is quiet. It all comes

0:51:18.400 --> 0:51:22.080
<v Speaker 5>down to Kawhi. If he's injured, then this team, the

0:51:22.160 --> 0:51:24.200
<v Speaker 5>ceiling is y, you know, whatever it is.

0:51:24.280 --> 0:51:25.960
<v Speaker 1>I also wanted to bring up this game because Zion

0:51:26.000 --> 0:51:27.880
<v Speaker 1>Williamson came back. Oh yeah, that's exciting.

0:51:27.880 --> 0:51:31.239
<v Speaker 7>Twenty one points, twelve rebounds, seven assists. Loved the seven

0:51:31.239 --> 0:51:34.640
<v Speaker 7>assists because my man was setting the table. Looked like

0:51:34.680 --> 0:51:37.200
<v Speaker 7>he hadn't missed a day and he probably would have

0:51:37.200 --> 0:51:38.680
<v Speaker 7>finished with a triple double if he actually got to

0:51:38.680 --> 0:51:40.280
<v Speaker 7>play at the end of the game instead of the

0:51:40.320 --> 0:51:42.239
<v Speaker 7>massive blowout that the Pelicans pulled off.

0:51:42.520 --> 0:51:46.520
<v Speaker 1>Do we know if the Pelicans play on Christmas? Because

0:51:46.520 --> 0:51:48.480
<v Speaker 1>I have an idea that the NBA. Oh they don't

0:51:48.520 --> 0:51:51.080
<v Speaker 1>this year. Okay, I just checked m I was gonna say,

0:51:51.080 --> 0:51:53.799
<v Speaker 1>and I've said this before, if they did, even if

0:51:53.840 --> 0:51:57.120
<v Speaker 1>they don't, just do it. Whenever NBA rig the net,

0:51:57.520 --> 0:52:01.080
<v Speaker 1>have a break, let sy and bring it down. Shacks foul.

0:52:01.239 --> 0:52:03.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling I'm serious. Somebody get in there tinker with

0:52:03.880 --> 0:52:05.440
<v Speaker 1>a bolt. Did you see a couple of those dunks

0:52:05.440 --> 0:52:08.640
<v Speaker 1>you have the thing rocking? Yeah, they're they're too strong,

0:52:08.719 --> 0:52:10.120
<v Speaker 1>these nets. Now, you can't really bring them down. I

0:52:10.120 --> 0:52:12.640
<v Speaker 1>don't think Shack could. But uh, you know, put an

0:52:12.640 --> 0:52:17.360
<v Speaker 1>old one in there, like loosen something. Bring it down people. Nuts.

0:52:17.760 --> 0:52:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Bible of Nuts would be awesome on Christmas. I was thinking, man,

0:52:19.960 --> 0:52:22.000
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have to counter the NFL. This year, you

0:52:22.040 --> 0:52:23.840
<v Speaker 1>get Zion bringing down the net. People are gonna be

0:52:23.840 --> 0:52:25.320
<v Speaker 1>flipping over, what the hell does happened?

0:52:25.440 --> 0:52:29.520
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, just an idea, that's that's a very good idea.

0:52:29.239 --> 0:52:31.000
<v Speaker 1>I just want to see somebody bring it down. It

0:52:31.040 --> 0:52:33.640
<v Speaker 1>should be him. I haven't looked like the schedule.

0:52:34.920 --> 0:52:37.160
<v Speaker 7>I'm guessing it looks way worse now that the season

0:52:37.160 --> 0:52:37.600
<v Speaker 7>has started.

0:52:37.760 --> 0:52:40.320
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. Yeah, I was trying to go through it yesterday

0:52:40.360 --> 0:52:42.279
<v Speaker 5>and I totally forget. I didn't know it off the

0:52:42.320 --> 0:52:46.839
<v Speaker 5>top of my head. But Zion could bring it, could

0:52:47.280 --> 0:52:49.120
<v Speaker 5>could bring it back. But they didn't trust enough for

0:52:49.200 --> 0:52:49.839
<v Speaker 5>Zion to be healthy.

0:52:50.000 --> 0:52:50.560
<v Speaker 1>I know.

0:52:51.239 --> 0:52:52.000
<v Speaker 5>So what do we got here?

0:52:52.040 --> 0:52:55.640
<v Speaker 7>Tre seventy six Ers Nicks? Yeah, still good, Still good matchup.

0:52:55.640 --> 0:52:59.319
<v Speaker 7>I think Lakers Mavericks. That one's gonna come down to

0:52:59.520 --> 0:53:01.960
<v Speaker 7>a look ad game winner. Will he make it or

0:53:01.960 --> 0:53:03.719
<v Speaker 7>really miss it? He's missed every single one so far

0:53:03.760 --> 0:53:06.560
<v Speaker 7>this season. But let's keep tracking that Buck Celtics Classic

0:53:06.920 --> 0:53:09.880
<v Speaker 7>Grizzlies Warriors. Okay, it could be a block Grizzlies at

0:53:09.880 --> 0:53:12.440
<v Speaker 7>this point and Son's Nuggets.

0:53:12.280 --> 0:53:15.080
<v Speaker 1>A classic lame Yeah yeah, yeah, Okay, it's not brutal

0:53:15.080 --> 0:53:18.160
<v Speaker 1>though it's not brutal it's not brutal. We got no nets.

0:53:19.160 --> 0:53:20.799
<v Speaker 1>We got no nets. That's good.

0:53:21.600 --> 0:53:24.560
<v Speaker 5>No Pelicans, I don't think. I think you've got a

0:53:24.600 --> 0:53:27.200
<v Speaker 5>great idea. What the Oh, it's a great ad because

0:53:27.239 --> 0:53:31.320
<v Speaker 5>I was watching the Clippers Pelicans game yesterday with with Danielle,

0:53:31.400 --> 0:53:34.279
<v Speaker 5>and I said, that man is huge, pointing out I mean,

0:53:34.280 --> 0:53:36.120
<v Speaker 5>he's the ninth wonder of the world in terms of

0:53:36.360 --> 0:53:39.800
<v Speaker 5>a basketball body, sixty six to eighty two ninety whatever

0:53:39.840 --> 0:53:41.600
<v Speaker 5>he is, it's it's lower than two ninety because the

0:53:41.600 --> 0:53:43.279
<v Speaker 5>contract says it has to be. And she said, no,

0:53:43.320 --> 0:53:45.520
<v Speaker 5>it's not. No, he's not that big. He's not that big.

0:53:45.800 --> 0:53:49.120
<v Speaker 5>I said, he's not tall. He's not seven foot. She said, yeah,

0:53:49.120 --> 0:53:53.600
<v Speaker 5>Shack's way bigger. But but but but he's wider, Danielle.

0:53:53.200 --> 0:53:56.120
<v Speaker 1>To see you fire up some old Charles Barkley clips

0:53:56.120 --> 0:53:58.839
<v Speaker 1>for her that daniel I don't think he don't cares.

0:53:58.960 --> 0:54:02.960
<v Speaker 1>It's like six four zion size lead fast breaks and

0:54:03.040 --> 0:54:03.960
<v Speaker 1>dunking over guys.

0:54:03.960 --> 0:54:06.279
<v Speaker 5>Anyways, just break it backboard and I think daniel will

0:54:06.280 --> 0:54:09.319
<v Speaker 5>appreciate it. Okay, yeah, but it's those backboards too. They

0:54:09.320 --> 0:54:10.200
<v Speaker 5>won't shatter.

0:54:10.560 --> 0:54:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, I know, but nor did Shacks. I mean he

0:54:12.520 --> 0:54:14.879
<v Speaker 1>brought them down. First one. He just straight up brought

0:54:14.920 --> 0:54:18.279
<v Speaker 1>down the second one. People think it was raged the hydraulics.

0:54:19.680 --> 0:54:21.879
<v Speaker 1>Verym I want the first one. I want the one

0:54:21.880 --> 0:54:23.080
<v Speaker 1>to collapse on Zion.

0:54:23.320 --> 0:54:23.520
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:54:23.520 --> 0:54:25.919
<v Speaker 1>I hope and he doesn't get injured. That would be bad.

0:54:27.080 --> 0:54:28.000
<v Speaker 1>I should think this through.

0:54:28.719 --> 0:54:31.320
<v Speaker 5>No, I think you could see. I was thinking shattering,

0:54:31.640 --> 0:54:33.680
<v Speaker 5>and I thought he'd dun't it. Everyone would get out

0:54:33.719 --> 0:54:35.239
<v Speaker 5>of the way and then you'd somehow break it so

0:54:35.280 --> 0:54:38.000
<v Speaker 5>there'd be no glass on everybody. But then it takes

0:54:38.000 --> 0:54:40.360
<v Speaker 5>forever to clean up, and then people would complain.

0:54:40.960 --> 0:54:46.799
<v Speaker 1>Didn't Darvin Ham? Okay, I'll lose you the weekend. I

0:54:46.840 --> 0:54:48.520
<v Speaker 1>want to get loser of the weekend to the collective

0:54:48.560 --> 0:54:53.000
<v Speaker 1>bargaining negotiations already started. Here'sre's why. Okay. So Friday night,

0:54:53.040 --> 0:54:56.520
<v Speaker 1>WOSE reports that the NBA is pursuing the implementation of

0:54:56.600 --> 0:55:00.719
<v Speaker 1>an upper spending limit in its negotiations on the new

0:55:01.120 --> 0:55:02.719
<v Speaker 1>CBA with the Players Association.

0:55:02.800 --> 0:55:03.600
<v Speaker 5>Tell me what that means?

0:55:03.680 --> 0:55:07.399
<v Speaker 1>Okay, okay, Well, first off, surprise surprise. What was also

0:55:07.440 --> 0:55:12.359
<v Speaker 1>says this change has been met with significant union resistance. Yeah,

0:55:12.760 --> 0:55:15.880
<v Speaker 1>and this is why I'm calling it a loser, because

0:55:15.880 --> 0:55:17.800
<v Speaker 1>this is going to be this is a non starter

0:55:17.920 --> 0:55:20.120
<v Speaker 1>in discussion. So this is what you do when you

0:55:20.120 --> 0:55:23.600
<v Speaker 1>start negotiating. When we have to negotiate with the athletic

0:55:23.680 --> 0:55:25.879
<v Speaker 1>coming up, we'll ask for ten million to start with.

0:55:26.000 --> 0:55:28.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, you start crazy high and say we're not

0:55:28.960 --> 0:55:31.440
<v Speaker 1>doing that. Okay, okay, and then you get to negotiating.

0:55:31.560 --> 0:55:33.400
<v Speaker 1>But this, I'll explain it for your task. It's basically

0:55:33.440 --> 0:55:36.520
<v Speaker 1>in the wake of like these large market contenders, your warriors,

0:55:36.560 --> 0:55:40.120
<v Speaker 1>your nets, your clippers, running up these massive payrolls, running

0:55:40.160 --> 0:55:43.040
<v Speaker 1>up these massive luxury tax penalties, and that the NBA

0:55:43.160 --> 0:55:46.359
<v Speaker 1>is proposing a system that will replace the luxury tax

0:55:46.400 --> 0:55:49.400
<v Speaker 1>with a hard limit that you could not exceed payceof

0:55:49.560 --> 0:55:55.839
<v Speaker 1>NFL style, I have a heart hard cap. Of course,

0:55:55.880 --> 0:55:57.759
<v Speaker 1>a union, a player assction would be against this because

0:55:57.760 --> 0:55:59.520
<v Speaker 1>then it's like, what do you mean now you're limiting

0:56:00.200 --> 0:56:02.400
<v Speaker 1>what we can make in theory. So that's why this

0:56:02.520 --> 0:56:04.400
<v Speaker 1>is not even going to be a discussion. But you know,

0:56:04.440 --> 0:56:06.719
<v Speaker 1>it gets all the headlines. People anna start talking about it,

0:56:06.760 --> 0:56:08.920
<v Speaker 1>but it's just I say it's a loser because it's

0:56:08.920 --> 0:56:11.760
<v Speaker 1>just like it's almost a slick move by the NBA.

0:56:11.880 --> 0:56:15.239
<v Speaker 1>They throw this out there and then what does this mean.

0:56:15.280 --> 0:56:17.480
<v Speaker 1>They're actually going to be really trying to get in

0:56:17.520 --> 0:56:20.480
<v Speaker 1>the in the upcoming collective bargaining agreement. So yeah, we're

0:56:20.480 --> 0:56:21.200
<v Speaker 1>not gonna see this.

0:56:21.280 --> 0:56:24.919
<v Speaker 7>Okay, you no, No, The NBA already makes more money

0:56:25.000 --> 0:56:28.319
<v Speaker 7>from basketball than the players. Do you think there's going

0:56:28.360 --> 0:56:29.160
<v Speaker 7>to be a hard limit?

0:56:29.320 --> 0:56:31.239
<v Speaker 1>You think the union fighting? Probably not?

0:56:31.640 --> 0:56:33.880
<v Speaker 7>Probably not on this CBA, but obviously that's what they

0:56:33.960 --> 0:56:36.360
<v Speaker 7>want and that's what they're gonna be going for long term.

0:56:36.800 --> 0:56:38.160
<v Speaker 1>NFL does have a hard cap.

0:56:39.920 --> 0:56:40.480
<v Speaker 5>That I m b A.

0:56:40.960 --> 0:56:42.839
<v Speaker 7>They make more money than the NBA. They're a bigger

0:56:42.920 --> 0:56:44.479
<v Speaker 7>league than the NBA, and they have more.

0:56:44.400 --> 0:56:50.000
<v Speaker 1>Parody and their union sucks, but their league is great.

0:56:50.200 --> 0:56:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Well I mean yeah, yeah, I don't know.

0:56:52.480 --> 0:56:54.239
<v Speaker 7>If you want basketball to be the biggest sport in

0:56:54.280 --> 0:56:55.880
<v Speaker 7>the world, maybe you should.

0:56:55.600 --> 0:56:57.319
<v Speaker 1>Copy the NFL a little bit. I don't know.

0:56:57.400 --> 0:57:00.319
<v Speaker 7>I don't think it's gonna happen either, But uh, to me,

0:57:00.400 --> 0:57:03.040
<v Speaker 7>this is a bad omen for CBA negotiations. If they're

0:57:03.080 --> 0:57:05.600
<v Speaker 7>asking for something that is this big of a deal,

0:57:05.880 --> 0:57:07.160
<v Speaker 7>there's gonna be a fight on their hands.

0:57:07.200 --> 0:57:09.719
<v Speaker 1>Oh. I mean, people are trying to pretend there won't be.

0:57:09.760 --> 0:57:11.000
<v Speaker 1>We've been saying this for a while. You can go

0:57:11.000 --> 0:57:12.959
<v Speaker 1>back and listen to the podcast this is going there's

0:57:13.120 --> 0:57:15.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look, I don't want to be all gloom

0:57:15.200 --> 0:57:19.160
<v Speaker 1>and dread here. Maybe it's because it's Halloween, Okay, but yeah,

0:57:19.160 --> 0:57:20.919
<v Speaker 1>this is not gonna go well, one hundred percent agree

0:57:20.920 --> 0:57:22.760
<v Speaker 1>with you, Trey, Like this is. There's gonna be a

0:57:22.760 --> 0:57:25.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of fighting over this collective argument agreement. And you

0:57:25.920 --> 0:57:28.680
<v Speaker 1>know they're they're trying to work in an agreement before

0:57:28.720 --> 0:57:31.880
<v Speaker 1>the December fifteenth deadline that each side has to give

0:57:32.000 --> 0:57:35.440
<v Speaker 1>notice to opt out of the current one. But it

0:57:35.520 --> 0:57:38.200
<v Speaker 1>expires after twenty twenty three, twenty four, this seven year deal.

0:57:38.240 --> 0:57:42.160
<v Speaker 1>I think we're unfortunately headed towards you know whatever. Another

0:57:42.280 --> 0:57:47.120
<v Speaker 1>sort of lockout potential was definitely possible. Yeah, Okay, final

0:57:47.160 --> 0:57:49.240
<v Speaker 1>one here, Trey, What do you got three options for

0:57:49.360 --> 0:57:51.040
<v Speaker 1>worst loss of the weekend? Him me?

0:57:51.200 --> 0:57:54.880
<v Speaker 7>Saturday, the MAVs lose to the thunder Task mentioned it. Yeah,

0:57:55.320 --> 0:57:58.320
<v Speaker 7>the MAVs had a sixteen point lead with four minutes

0:57:58.360 --> 0:58:01.680
<v Speaker 7>and fourteen seconds left. Tim McMahon of ESPN had the

0:58:01.720 --> 0:58:05.360
<v Speaker 7>stat that NBA teams were nine nine hundred and seventy

0:58:05.360 --> 0:58:07.880
<v Speaker 7>five and one when leading by sixteen or more points

0:58:07.920 --> 0:58:12.040
<v Speaker 7>in the final four minutes now nine and seventy five

0:58:12.080 --> 0:58:14.880
<v Speaker 7>and two. Dantis missed the game winner in that game,

0:58:14.960 --> 0:58:19.480
<v Speaker 7>lost in overtime. Another candidate for worst loss of the weekend. Sunday,

0:58:19.480 --> 0:58:22.240
<v Speaker 7>the Nuggets lose to the Lakers. They lost to the Lakers,

0:58:22.280 --> 0:58:24.320
<v Speaker 7>and they gave up one hundred and twenty one points.

0:58:24.600 --> 0:58:26.040
<v Speaker 7>That's a lot of points to give up to the

0:58:26.080 --> 0:58:30.200
<v Speaker 7>Lakers team their first win. Five Nuggets scored in double

0:58:30.200 --> 0:58:33.080
<v Speaker 7>digits but did not matter. A near triple double for Westbrook.

0:58:33.160 --> 0:58:37.120
<v Speaker 7>Crazy yeah, and then two bad Warriors losses. They were

0:58:37.120 --> 0:58:40.280
<v Speaker 7>beat handily by the Pistons yesterday. Gave up a ton

0:58:40.320 --> 0:58:42.440
<v Speaker 7>of points one hundred and twenty eight to the Pistons.

0:58:42.760 --> 0:58:45.640
<v Speaker 7>But I'm more concerned with the ot loss Saturday to

0:58:45.680 --> 0:58:48.800
<v Speaker 7>the Hornets. No starting backcourt for the Hornets. And this

0:58:48.840 --> 0:58:51.080
<v Speaker 7>one makes the cut for me because it eliminated me

0:58:51.200 --> 0:58:52.320
<v Speaker 7>from our run.

0:58:52.200 --> 0:58:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Your pools game. Oh no versus Hornets. This is an

0:58:56.800 --> 0:58:57.360
<v Speaker 1>easy one.

0:58:58.440 --> 0:59:04.080
<v Speaker 7>No LaMelo, no, no Trey anymore. I mean this says

0:59:04.120 --> 0:59:07.640
<v Speaker 7>week two, it's really week one. Yeah, and I'm done. Yeah, Well,

0:59:07.680 --> 0:59:10.480
<v Speaker 7>I saw I checked the pool this morning. I think

0:59:10.480 --> 0:59:14.240
<v Speaker 7>you're alive, task yeah, alive, But almost half the people

0:59:14.280 --> 0:59:15.640
<v Speaker 7>are already done, so you're not alone.

0:59:15.720 --> 0:59:18.720
<v Speaker 1>Tray now some products to make a pick. I think

0:59:18.720 --> 0:59:20.400
<v Speaker 1>two hundred plus people forgot to make a pick, so

0:59:20.440 --> 0:59:22.800
<v Speaker 1>that's on them. But yeah, it's already we already cut

0:59:22.800 --> 0:59:24.480
<v Speaker 1>this pool in half, just like that.

0:59:24.720 --> 0:59:25.000
<v Speaker 4>Nice.

0:59:25.080 --> 0:59:25.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's good for us.

0:59:26.880 --> 0:59:29.840
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, which one when the pool? When the pool started,

0:59:29.880 --> 0:59:32.560
<v Speaker 5>I thought this is gonna be pretty easy. You know,

0:59:32.640 --> 0:59:34.760
<v Speaker 5>you're not picking points, but you're just literally picking the

0:59:34.760 --> 0:59:37.920
<v Speaker 5>winner of the basketball game. You never known the National

0:59:37.920 --> 0:59:41.280
<v Speaker 5>Basketball Association some of the easiest games.

0:59:41.320 --> 0:59:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Well, who did you pick this last week?

0:59:43.520 --> 0:59:48.680
<v Speaker 5>I picked the Wolves to beat the Spur the first Yeah,

0:59:49.080 --> 0:59:51.200
<v Speaker 5>well second game, right, yes?

0:59:51.640 --> 0:59:51.920
<v Speaker 1>First?

0:59:51.920 --> 0:59:54.360
<v Speaker 5>Got it first? Yes, yes, you're right, right, it was

0:59:54.400 --> 1:00:01.320
<v Speaker 5>the second game. Nice picky, man, great pick? Yeah? Sorry man, yeah, JD.

1:00:01.400 --> 1:00:02.080
<v Speaker 5>You're still in it?

1:00:04.040 --> 1:00:06.160
<v Speaker 4>Am I still in the survivor pool? Yeah? Man, I'm

1:00:06.160 --> 1:00:07.040
<v Speaker 4>like number thirty.

1:00:07.360 --> 1:00:11.600
<v Speaker 1>No, not that actual survival, not the reality. You didn't

1:00:11.640 --> 1:00:13.640
<v Speaker 1>make a pick in our NBA Survivor pool.

1:00:13.840 --> 1:00:16.120
<v Speaker 4>I forgot you even joined the thing.

1:00:17.680 --> 1:00:18.000
<v Speaker 5>I saw.

1:00:18.160 --> 1:00:21.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I can still join, right, No, no, you can't.

1:00:21.920 --> 1:00:24.840
<v Speaker 5>Not Week three. Anyways, I saw you rigging up your

1:00:24.880 --> 1:00:30.600
<v Speaker 5>mic there. I thought you're getting ready to go I

1:00:30.640 --> 1:00:32.480
<v Speaker 5>thought you're ready to talk about the basketball pool. But

1:00:32.720 --> 1:00:35.840
<v Speaker 5>I do agree with Trey. The Hornets one was worse

1:00:36.080 --> 1:00:37.880
<v Speaker 5>because of the way the Warriors looked at the end

1:00:37.880 --> 1:00:41.200
<v Speaker 5>of this game. It was unwarrior like. At the end

1:00:41.280 --> 1:00:45.560
<v Speaker 5>of regulation, Steph tried to hit a real hero ball shot,

1:00:46.000 --> 1:00:48.720
<v Speaker 5>maybe because he was back home in Charlotte, he said

1:00:48.760 --> 1:00:52.080
<v Speaker 5>a postgame, But they didn't look crisp. They didn't know

1:00:52.120 --> 1:00:53.400
<v Speaker 5>what they were sort of running at the end of

1:00:53.400 --> 1:00:57.920
<v Speaker 5>the fourth quarter, and that's Unwarriors like. They just weren't

1:00:57.920 --> 1:00:59.520
<v Speaker 5>on the right spots on the floor that you could

1:00:59.560 --> 1:01:03.040
<v Speaker 5>see there hesitating with their passes. This didn't happen at

1:01:03.040 --> 1:01:05.800
<v Speaker 5>the beginning of last year when they rolled to an

1:01:05.880 --> 1:01:09.240
<v Speaker 5>NBA championship. They were cooking for a long stretch to

1:01:09.320 --> 1:01:12.880
<v Speaker 5>start the season. So there's something going on there with

1:01:12.920 --> 1:01:15.680
<v Speaker 5>the Warriors. Opening night they roll, we think, oh, they're back,

1:01:16.080 --> 1:01:18.920
<v Speaker 5>but you know, they lost to Phoenix when I think

1:01:18.960 --> 1:01:20.280
<v Speaker 5>they looked on the other side of the floor and

1:01:20.280 --> 1:01:23.400
<v Speaker 5>they saw a Phoenix team that was, you know, playing really,

1:01:23.400 --> 1:01:26.760
<v Speaker 5>really well, and maybe they thought to themselves, we're not

1:01:26.840 --> 1:01:28.840
<v Speaker 5>We're not as good as the Phoenix Suns right now.

1:01:29.360 --> 1:01:31.440
<v Speaker 5>And then yeah, they lose the to the Hornets where

1:01:31.560 --> 1:01:34.880
<v Speaker 5>you know they weren't themselves. And then the Pistons game. Yeah,

1:01:34.920 --> 1:01:37.240
<v Speaker 5>that was they just got run off the floor really

1:01:37.680 --> 1:01:38.640
<v Speaker 5>against the Pistons.

1:01:38.800 --> 1:01:41.400
<v Speaker 1>That was a tough pick. Taking the Warriors in Charlotte.

1:01:41.560 --> 1:01:44.640
<v Speaker 1>They never win there. I just did some fact checking here,

1:01:44.760 --> 1:01:47.960
<v Speaker 1>and at least the last four seasons they've lost that

1:01:48.000 --> 1:01:51.000
<v Speaker 1>game when Curry makes his return there in Charlotte.

1:01:51.000 --> 1:01:54.000
<v Speaker 7>You're saying I should have done some research research, Hey,

1:01:54.520 --> 1:01:56.080
<v Speaker 7>blew it, But all right.

1:01:56.120 --> 1:01:56.520
<v Speaker 1>That's all right.

1:01:56.560 --> 1:01:59.720
<v Speaker 7>The second game I was considering was Warriors at Pistons. Okay,

1:02:00.320 --> 1:02:02.600
<v Speaker 7>so if I would have actually done researching about oh

1:02:02.600 --> 1:02:05.320
<v Speaker 7>they always lives to the Hornets Pistons, it is lost

1:02:05.320 --> 1:02:05.680
<v Speaker 7>by more.

1:02:05.680 --> 1:02:07.040
<v Speaker 1>Hey, let us know in the stream team are you

1:02:07.080 --> 1:02:09.800
<v Speaker 1>still alive or if you're out, which team did you in?

1:02:10.000 --> 1:02:11.440
<v Speaker 1>Was it the Warriors in one of those games with

1:02:11.640 --> 1:02:13.920

1:02:40.560 --> 1:02:43.360

1:02:46.120 --> 1:02:46.880

<v Speaker 4>Yeah, very funny.

1:02:49.640 --> 1:02:53.880
<v Speaker 6>He was literally holding himself up using using his abs

1:02:53.920 --> 1:02:55.400

1:04:21.080 --> 1:04:23.200

1:04:51.560 --> 1:04:53.800
<v Speaker 1>They got it done. Victory for Trey and I. We

1:04:53.840 --> 1:04:56.040
<v Speaker 1>improved a four and five test, took the next to cover,

1:04:56.360 --> 1:04:58.960
<v Speaker 1>so that loss puts you to six and three. Yeah,

1:04:59.040 --> 1:05:02.280
<v Speaker 1>we're pretty close. We are, although well we never did.

1:05:02.520 --> 1:05:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Are we calling? Are we resetting in November because it's

1:05:04.960 --> 1:05:06.280
<v Speaker 1>the final night, so you've already won.

1:05:06.400 --> 1:05:10.440
<v Speaker 5>I don't know. Okay, Well, congratulations you want Okay, I

1:05:10.480 --> 1:05:12.000
<v Speaker 5>guess I think I got you.

1:05:12.000 --> 1:05:14.440
<v Speaker 1>What we reset it. It used to be a short

1:05:14.480 --> 1:05:17.200
<v Speaker 1>month in October. Now we got like two weeks of games. Yeah, yeah,

1:05:17.280 --> 1:05:17.640
<v Speaker 1>that's true.

1:05:17.720 --> 1:05:18.360
<v Speaker 5>That's pretty long.

1:05:18.440 --> 1:05:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we're ten games here after tonight. So what's tonight's game.

1:05:21.040 --> 1:05:23.640
<v Speaker 5>Let's off, let's finish it off here. We've got a

1:05:23.760 --> 1:05:26.760
<v Speaker 5>Wraps Hawks game in Toronto. We're gonna skip that one.

1:05:27.040 --> 1:05:29.560
<v Speaker 5>We also have Memphis, Utah. I think that's gonna be

1:05:29.560 --> 1:05:32.440
<v Speaker 5>a fun one. We'll skip that one though, because I

1:05:32.480 --> 1:05:35.120
<v Speaker 5>saw Indian Brooklyn on the schedule and I thought it

1:05:35.240 --> 1:05:39.600
<v Speaker 5>was a tough game considering what happened on Saturday where

1:05:39.640 --> 1:05:42.720
<v Speaker 5>the Pacers took care of Brooklyn. The Nets are eight

1:05:42.760 --> 1:05:45.600
<v Speaker 5>and a half point favorites. That's a big line. So

1:05:45.640 --> 1:05:47.760
<v Speaker 5>that's why you guys jumped on. The Pacers just got

1:05:47.760 --> 1:05:49.680
<v Speaker 5>to lose by eight or less. How the heck do

1:05:49.680 --> 1:05:51.640
<v Speaker 5>you have faith in this Brooklyn team? I don't know.

1:05:52.120 --> 1:05:54.520
<v Speaker 5>I don't know, but I took him because you guys

1:05:54.560 --> 1:05:57.800
<v Speaker 5>took the Pacers, and we've got this rule in house no,

1:05:57.840 --> 1:05:59.919
<v Speaker 5>one can't. We can't all take the same team.

1:06:00.080 --> 1:06:02.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, you did something very kind this morning. I saw

1:06:02.520 --> 1:06:04.160
<v Speaker 1>you picked the game, you put it in the dock,

1:06:04.280 --> 1:06:05.720
<v Speaker 1>but you did not make your selection.

1:06:05.920 --> 1:06:06.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, very nicely.

1:06:06.800 --> 1:06:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Yea.

1:06:07.800 --> 1:06:10.240
<v Speaker 5>I also picked the Knicks on Friday. That was kind

1:06:10.240 --> 1:06:11.640
<v Speaker 5>of me. I was gonna lose. I knew I was

1:06:11.640 --> 1:06:12.040
<v Speaker 5>gonna lose.

1:06:12.160 --> 1:06:13.160
<v Speaker 1>You knew you're gonna lose.

1:06:14.880 --> 1:06:18.000
<v Speaker 5>But anyways, I don't mind finishing with two straight losses

1:06:18.000 --> 1:06:20.840
<v Speaker 5>because I'm winning. So I don't know what this Brooklyn,

1:06:20.840 --> 1:06:23.040
<v Speaker 5>that team they could win. I'm betting more on the

1:06:23.080 --> 1:06:26.920
<v Speaker 5>Pacers not being great again. Yeah, because they're the Pacers.

1:06:27.080 --> 1:06:29.160
<v Speaker 1>We'll see. Let's get to tweet in the night.

1:06:31.320 --> 1:06:38.840
<v Speaker 5>Tweet out the night, Wow, tweeted.

1:06:36.520 --> 1:06:39.200
<v Speaker 1>The night more so tweeted the weekend.

1:06:39.240 --> 1:06:41.720
<v Speaker 7>If I'm being quite honest, because the footage comes from

1:06:41.800 --> 1:06:48.640
<v Speaker 7>calvs Celtics Friday night, when at Sports Boy Tony, notice

1:06:48.640 --> 1:06:52.400
<v Speaker 7>that Luke Cornett invented a new way of defending the ribs.

1:06:52.440 --> 1:06:54.280
<v Speaker 7>A guy taking a corner three I think it's a

1:06:54.320 --> 1:06:58.080
<v Speaker 7>core out and Luke Cornett is jumping in the lane

1:06:58.120 --> 1:07:00.840
<v Speaker 7>and putting his hands up, you know, ten feet high

1:07:01.160 --> 1:07:04.200
<v Speaker 7>or something like that, trying to take a coro's.

1:07:03.880 --> 1:07:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Eyes off what he's shooting at the Athletics.

1:07:06.760 --> 1:07:10.680
<v Speaker 7>J King followed up with Cornett after the game and

1:07:10.720 --> 1:07:13.720
<v Speaker 7>he said, Luke Cornett said that he's been told this

1:07:13.880 --> 1:07:17.240
<v Speaker 7>jumping style works, said if the numbers start to show otherwise,

1:07:17.280 --> 1:07:20.000
<v Speaker 7>he'll adjust, But players have told him this makes an impact.

1:07:20.840 --> 1:07:23.720
<v Speaker 1>Cornett said, we're visually dependent people.

1:07:23.960 --> 1:07:27.760
<v Speaker 7>So yeah, okay, does this work?

1:07:27.800 --> 1:07:31.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, okay, even if that is true, that the issue

1:07:31.440 --> 1:07:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I see as the seven footer on the team is

1:07:34.400 --> 1:07:36.560
<v Speaker 1>now you are, and you saw it in the second clip,

1:07:36.760 --> 1:07:39.520
<v Speaker 1>you are in no position to go get a rebound.

1:07:40.240 --> 1:07:43.240
<v Speaker 1>So I guess on one end, yeah, good for you.

1:07:43.360 --> 1:07:45.640
<v Speaker 1>The guy missed the shot, but like, what about getting

1:07:45.640 --> 1:07:51.439
<v Speaker 1>the ball back? So turns his back on this guy

1:07:51.480 --> 1:07:54.160
<v Speaker 1>on the court to I guess that that second shot

1:07:54.200 --> 1:07:56.960
<v Speaker 1>went over the rim, right, so there was no rebound

1:07:57.000 --> 1:08:00.600
<v Speaker 1>to be had. But wild, I mean, it's almost Do

1:08:00.640 --> 1:08:03.960
<v Speaker 1>you remember Jose Calderon in his clap defense. He used

1:08:04.000 --> 1:08:07.240
<v Speaker 1>to be a big like, like thirty feet away from

1:08:07.240 --> 1:08:10.480
<v Speaker 1>the guy he was alway, Jose was always clapping. I

1:08:10.480 --> 1:08:12.680
<v Speaker 1>don't think it ever worked. You see it, You see

1:08:12.720 --> 1:08:14.560
<v Speaker 1>it in the odd pickup run. You know, every once

1:08:14.560 --> 1:08:16.120
<v Speaker 1>in a while, so he just doesn't clapper.

1:08:16.240 --> 1:08:17.000
<v Speaker 5>He clapped.

1:08:17.080 --> 1:08:20.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know I love brownies. Similar show the nips,

1:08:21.040 --> 1:08:28.000
<v Speaker 1>be tough in that. Yeah, do that? This works? Yeah? Yeah,

1:08:28.000 --> 1:08:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I've been to check the numbers. But visually dependent people.

1:08:32.720 --> 1:08:38.520
<v Speaker 7>So I'm gonna keep doing it, doesn't shut.

1:08:40.479 --> 1:08:43.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, what do you think about Luke here? No next

1:08:44.120 --> 1:08:45.120
<v Speaker 1>galaxy brain thinking.

1:08:45.240 --> 1:08:48.479
<v Speaker 5>I think Trey's muscle costume is way more effective than

1:08:48.520 --> 1:08:50.640
<v Speaker 5>lou Cornet. It's one of those things you see on

1:08:50.640 --> 1:08:53.559
<v Speaker 5>Twitter and you see it happen the first time, you're like, okay, yeah,

1:08:53.600 --> 1:08:56.519
<v Speaker 5>that really works. He blocked his line of sight. Then

1:08:56.560 --> 1:08:58.880
<v Speaker 5>you look at it, there's no way he blocked the

1:08:58.920 --> 1:09:02.120
<v Speaker 5>guy's line of hear from a kor Yeah, did you

1:09:02.200 --> 1:09:05.400
<v Speaker 5>notice that? Yeah? I'm not buying it.

1:09:07.840 --> 1:09:10.240
<v Speaker 1>We got one more? Can I piggyback off that tweet?

1:09:10.640 --> 1:09:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Do you mind? Muscleman? Go for it? Okay, I need to.

1:09:14.040 --> 1:09:16.040
<v Speaker 1>You can't zip to see what the tweet is real?

1:09:16.160 --> 1:09:18.639
<v Speaker 5>Okay, okay, let me tell you muscle Man can piggyback in.

1:09:19.120 --> 1:09:20.800
<v Speaker 1>J D I did you go sound up on it?

1:09:20.880 --> 1:09:21.080
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

1:09:21.120 --> 1:09:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Okay? Well, Molly Morrison tweeted absolutely obsessed with Grant Williams

1:09:25.520 --> 1:09:28.519
<v Speaker 1>showing up to tonight's game wearing a Halloween costume, playing

1:09:28.560 --> 1:09:31.400
<v Speaker 1>the game, and then putting the costume back on after

1:09:31.479 --> 1:09:34.200
<v Speaker 1>so he could do his entire postgame presser in character.

1:09:34.800 --> 1:09:35.880
<v Speaker 1>And here's a small club.

1:09:37.200 --> 1:09:42.160
<v Speaker 3>He doesn't shot make sure that the entire team is

1:09:42.200 --> 1:09:46.200
<v Speaker 3>locked in for us, not for us to be special,

1:09:47.120 --> 1:09:49.800
<v Speaker 3>we have to stay locked in in all hours, not in,

1:09:50.000 --> 1:09:50.360
<v Speaker 3>not out.

1:09:54.720 --> 1:09:56.160
<v Speaker 6>Defensively, what was different?

1:09:57.920 --> 1:10:01.760
<v Speaker 3>Best part about his team that we take care of

1:10:01.840 --> 1:10:06.280
<v Speaker 3>each other defensively, that's all we can accomplish it.

1:10:10.120 --> 1:10:13.479
<v Speaker 1>So that statum coming in the background asking what the

1:10:13.520 --> 1:10:16.240
<v Speaker 1>hell Grant Williams is doing? And for those just listening,

1:10:16.240 --> 1:10:17.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you could tell did you know

1:10:17.840 --> 1:10:19.280
<v Speaker 1>that was a Batman impersonation?

1:10:22.320 --> 1:10:22.760
<v Speaker 5>That was all right?

1:10:22.800 --> 1:10:24.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm just wondering if you only could hear it, would

1:10:24.800 --> 1:10:26.320
<v Speaker 1>you know he was dressed as Batman?

1:10:27.479 --> 1:10:27.719
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

1:10:29.840 --> 1:10:32.559
<v Speaker 4>He needs more rage, more rage, more rage. Yeah, I

1:10:32.600 --> 1:10:36.599
<v Speaker 4>think too nice. He's very whispery. He never heard Batman?

1:10:37.120 --> 1:10:45.080
<v Speaker 4>You know?

1:10:45.280 --> 1:10:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Where's so the Celtics coming through with tweets of the

1:10:52.680 --> 1:10:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Nights last weekend? You love to see it.

1:10:54.920 --> 1:10:57.519
<v Speaker 5>I just love how the narrative wasn't Grant Williams such

1:10:57.560 --> 1:11:01.000
<v Speaker 5>a loser for dressing up because it's the Twitter narrative

1:11:01.040 --> 1:11:03.479
<v Speaker 5>could have gone that way. I was wondering, where is

1:11:03.479 --> 1:11:04.639
<v Speaker 5>it gonna be a love hate thing?

1:11:06.280 --> 1:11:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that? Yeah, he does call himself batman.

1:11:08.360 --> 1:11:11.280
<v Speaker 5>He called him God. I didn't want to know that

1:11:11.400 --> 1:11:11.840
<v Speaker 5>he does.

1:11:13.040 --> 1:11:15.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty sure he does. It's not a basketball reference.

1:11:15.680 --> 1:11:18.559
<v Speaker 1>It's just the general He does it all in character, though,

1:11:18.560 --> 1:11:22.719
<v Speaker 1>which is the cool part. Yeah, well, let's call it there, guys,

<v Speaker 6>He had three people knock on the door last year.

1:12:00.640 --> 1:12:02.600

1:12:20.280 --> 1:12:23.760

1:12:24.160 --> 1:12:25.320
<v Speaker 1>God their children.

1:12:25.439 --> 1:12:25.880
