25
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 1: the beach as promised to answer a few of your

26
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: NBA questions.

27
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 2: But let's start with a little is this news? Is

28
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:29,320
Speaker 2: this news?

29
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: The segment where we pull some NBA headlines and ask

30
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: the guys here whether or not it's newsworthy and break

31
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: them down. First one, it's from ESPN.

32
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 2: Ever heard of it?

33
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:45,559
Speaker 1: Lou Dort and Jeremiah Fears spark altercation between thunder Pelican's task.

34
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: We've got the footage, but I want to know, a

35
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: is this newsworthy? And if it is, who's to blame

36
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: in the Dort Fears battle here.

37
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 2: I do think this is news specifically for Jeremiah Fears,

38
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 2: because he was willing to battle with Lou Dort, a

39
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 2: man who is much larger than him, and he was

40
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 2: willing to hang there with him. The person to blame

41
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,959
Speaker 2: is that Dort. For sure, he went after Jeremiah Fears

42
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 2: for no reason. Game over, but he went after him

43
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 2: and nothing particular happened other than everybody having to jump

44
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 2: on the floor because it was the end of the game.

45
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: You even got Joe Dumars, the head of basketball operations

46
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 2: for the New Orleans Pelicans. I don't know if he

47
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 2: had flashbacks to The Bad Boys. Probably not. But for

48
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 2: Dort to get in Jeremiah's Fears face, and for Fears

49
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 2: to be willing to stand up as a rook to

50
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 2: a monstrous person and still want to go after him afterwards,

51
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 2: I think this is good news for the Pelicans, bad

52
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: news for the kinesiology tape that we saw falling off

53
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 2: of lou Dort's shoulder. Other than that, good news, I

54
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 2: would say for Fears to be willing to do this

55
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: as a kid, He's a kid. It's just a wee boy,

56
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 2: the wee boys.

57
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 3: This for us, an Illinois boy versus a good old

58
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 3: Canadian boy.

59
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 2: Exciting. Yeah, it's not totally on Dort.

60
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 3: He pushes him twice, and he also fouled Jeremiah Fears.

61
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 3: You heard Mark Dagnault say it afterwards. If they would

62
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 3: have called the foule on Dort. And this probably doesn't

63
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 3: happen at all because like he reaches, he hits Fears

64
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 3: all over the arms. But the referees said, hey, there's

65
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 3: only a couple of tents of a second left here,

66
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 3: we're not calling anything game over. Instead, we get every

67
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 3: single player from both sides on the court. Not to mention,

68
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 3: Greg Monroe came up randomly yesterday. Now he's out there

69
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 3: in the fight to me, brought the moose for Greg Monroe.

70
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 3: Will it be further news? Will there be suspensions? Everybody

71
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 3: left the bench, that's a guaranteed suspension. But the game's

72
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 3: over exactly, so I don't know. I don't think so.

73
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: Look, I mean, Jeremiah Fears was he was pissed, like

74
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: they had to really hold him back. Dort you know,

75
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: did his part, obviously slapped him, fouled him. It should

76
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: have been a foul call, like Dagnall said, it wasn't

77
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: called because the game was over. But then he's sort

78
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: of like, okay, that's sort of it. After they tussle,

79
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: but Fears wanted at him like you saw that one

80
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: assistant coach or whoever that was. Yeah, he was not

81
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: letting go, and they basically picked him up and carried

82
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: him back.

83
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 2: It's good.

84
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: He's quite tiny and quite small, and even Zion Willmson

85
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: there's that clip of him like sort of consoling him

86
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: in the in the bowels of the arena in the

87
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: hallway there, sort of checking everybody.

88
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 2: It was hot.

89
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: I think the real culprit in all this, though, is

90
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: the fact that Pelicans couldn't hit a three at the

91
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: end there because.

92
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 2: They had like three or four looks in the game

93
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: was basically over.

94
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: Now, We've seen many teams like, obviously try and get

95
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 1: some points whatever, I scrapped their way back into it,

96
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: but they just kept missing and missing and getting the

97
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 1: rebound and missing and missing. And I think by the

98
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: time it got to Fears and Dort, knowing the way

99
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: he plays, like okay, whatever, just slap at it, and

100
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 1: it's just like if one of those threes go down,

101
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: I feel like this doesn't happen. But Jeremih Fears also

102
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: talks a lot of shit, I think for a nineteen

103
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: year old, and I think that's a part of this

104
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,799
Speaker 1: here too. I saw Tony Jones tweet last night, nineteen

105
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 1: year old has tried to fight half the league and

106
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: we're not even at the All Star break of his

107
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: rookie season. Fears got to be talking crazy out there,

108
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: so maybe things were said as well.

109
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 2: Got upset, Yeah, I think so. Watching it live, I

110
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 2: thought Okay, Dort is really mad at the end of

111
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 2: the game it's over. I think there must have been

112
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 2: something said that triggered him a little bit, but there

113
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 2: also could have been a lot of other things triggered.

114
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 2: He stepped under Trey Murphy, not under, I shouldn't say under.

115
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 2: It wasn't like he was in his landing space. But

116
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 2: he does the classic I'm gonna challenge this and then

117
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 2: bump you a little bit. Now we get under your

118
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 2: skin a little bit. Trey Murphy one of the guys

119
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 2: shooting one of those multiple shots that was missed. He

120
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 2: gets under people's skins. Oh, but that's what he wanted

121
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 2: to find.

122
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 1: The lew Door compilation of him basically playing like a linebacker.

123
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 2: Yes, right, there's that.

124
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: But I also think Fears is like probably chirping a

125
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: whole lot for a nineteen year old, where everyone's like, hey,

126
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: relax here.

127
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 2: So there's that song, kind of good with it. The

128
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 2: Pelicans need a little bit of edge, that's what they need,

129
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,359
Speaker 2: and I think that's all right that they have a

130
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 2: little bit of a direction. Maybe we're going young at

131
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 2: some point, so I don't mind that a kid is

132
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 2: doing that for their team. What he said, but he

133
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 2: said something.

134
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,280
Speaker 1: Jiles Williams of City Bay had just got into it

135
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 1: like ninety second prior to like doing the classic jockey

136
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 1: and for position on an inbounds, and they had to

137
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: be sort of separated. And that's what Dagneld said, Like

138
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: the ref sort of lost control of this game a

139
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 1: little bit. It was ugly at the start of this game.

140
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: It was gross and then the team's got going, but

141
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: they just like lost control of it. And this is

142
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: where you get to these situations.

143
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 2: I think.

144
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 1: So it's a bit on them too. It's sort of

145
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: on everyone here. But I don't think there will be suspensions.

146
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 2: I really don't.

147
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 3: Who knows, Yeah, yeah, the stream team right now is

148
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 3: a great stream teams.

149
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 2: That's fifty five percent that there will be suspensions. They

150
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 2: did leave the bench, like, no.

151
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 3: Doubt about it. People that weren't playing left the bench.

152
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 3: But who knows because the game was technically over, but

153
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 3: everybody left the bench.

154
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 2: Everybody like you to suspend everybody.

155
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 3: Maybe so well, I guess you don't have to suspend

156
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 3: the players that were already on the court.

157
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't leave the bench, that's true, And there

158
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 2: was no fists thrown. I did some scouring of the headlines.

159
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 2: None of them said fight, use the word fight, altercation, yeah, scuffle. Yeah,

160
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 2: it was a push off. It was a push off.

161
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 2: That's them as well. Yeah. I think the thing that

162
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 2: made the headline for me was seeing Shay's reaction in

163
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,039
Speaker 2: the background, because I think we can start to see

164
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 2: a compilation of the shehae reactions to stuff. If you

165
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 2: remember Grayson Allen pushed Chet Honggren, his teammate a little

166
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 2: earlier in the season, there's the Shaye, whoa behind He's

167
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 2: doing that here in this one too, whoa what's going

168
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 2: on down there? That's going to be fun to put

169
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 2: those together. I will say one random thing, okay, see

170
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 2: taking care of business. Shaye and Chet also got their

171
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 2: their awards, their December Player of the Month awards in

172
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 2: this game now January twenty seventh. They both received their

173
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 2: respective player of the month, Western Conference Player of the

174
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 2: Month for Shay and Western Conference Defensive Player of the

175
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 2: Month for Chet. Yeah.

176
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: I didn't realize it was for December. Good point.

177
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, a long time ago. And also my brain says

178
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 2: they didn't really have a good December. They lost to

179
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: the Spurs the whole time. But you know they were

180
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 2: nine and four. The Spurs were technically eleven and four,

181
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 2: although they were eleven and five. I guess because they

182
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: don't count the game at the end of the NBA Cup.

183
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 2: So I mean, okay, see's still good, but your mind

184
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 2: says that was a bad month for them. Either way,

185
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:08,119
Speaker 2: they get awards. Still.

186
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: We had another scuffle last day too, between the Nets

187
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: and the Suns, and that one happened late in the game.

188
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: That one led to five technical fouls and there was

189
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: something like a nine minute delay while the officials tried

190
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 1: to make sense of the shenanigans that happened there. And

191
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: it was another Canadian involved in that one. There was

192
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: a loose ball, like guys were fighting for a loose ball.

193
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: Also was a two point game, big difference story tight. Yeah,

194
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: the game was still up for grabs and they were

195
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,559
Speaker 1: literally trying to grab the ball and Yegor came over

196
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: and I guess pushed Dylan Brooks, who like completely just

197
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: toppled over. I think selling it, I guess, And then

198
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: that's led to a bunch of them sort of like fighting.

199
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: Nobody left the bench though, players wise, it was just

200
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 1: a bunch of assistant coaches running out their TK and

201
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: again it ended in a bunch of technicals.

202
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's crazy that Lou Dort and Dylan Brooks would

203
00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 3: get into an alter occasion.

204
00:08:59,160 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 2: I can't believe it.

205
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 3: But Curtis Blair really made me laugh when he was

206
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 3: explaining the technical fouls, particularly for the nets. He said

207
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 3: the technical fouls were on denim Man's and Porter straight

208
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 3: up denhim, he said, instead of Yeoman, which is why

209
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 3: you know, like you were saying people were going to

210
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 3: leave him till late in the draft because.

211
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,199
Speaker 2: I think it was Vince the drafted him.

212
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,719
Speaker 1: I guess he's got maybe the nets ties there the

213
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: uh well, I guess it was the Sun's broadcast. When

214
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: it took like eight or nine minutes of like waiting

215
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: to find out who's going to get technical fouls, They

216
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: like purposely will not say his name. They just keep

217
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 1: calling them.

218
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 2: Rookie, real rookie, rookie. They said rookie like a million trips.

219
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 2: They were like, I'm not trying denhim Man's in Porter.

220
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 2: That made me laugh a lot.

221
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 3: I can see uh Yegor getting fined at the very

222
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 3: least because he had the most egregious sort of Yeah,

223
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 3: the instigation instigation, Like, I mean he kind of dex brooks,

224
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 3: you know, he pushes them down. Yeah, it kind of

225
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 3: gets table topped and just laying there on the ground

226
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 3: looking up. I thought it was a funny reaction as well.

227
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 3: But yeah, just an angry night in the association. I

228
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 3: guess I had to check. I checked my app I

229
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 3: was like, is there a full moon?

230
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 2: Nah? No, we only.

231
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 3: Got three quarters going on here. I don't know if

232
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 3: it was waning or relaxing. I didn't pay attention, but

233
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 3: we gotta gibbus.

234
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 2: I got a theory.

235
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: I think this type of weather gets people a little

236
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: more frustrated, great point, irritated, cooped up. Yeah, just like

237
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: the travel these teams have to do with this crappy

238
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: weather delays.

239
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 2: All you know, edge a little bit.

240
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: You're like you can sort of see the All Star

241
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 1: break right over the horizon for like ninety five percent

242
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 1: of these guys. Yeah, so yeah, it's my tempers were

243
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 1: flaring there, right, I guess, so something to talk about.

244
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 2: I woke up My throat was extremely dry. One of

245
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 2: those I'm waking up in the middle night because your

246
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 2: throw is dry. The one night I would have liked

247
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 2: to have a cup of water beside my night side table.

248
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 2: That would have been perfect. Yeah, so I had to

249
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 2: walk all the way around. Oh you got it to

250
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 2: Daniel's side. Yeah, I mean I couldn't. I couldn't survive.

251
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 2: I was so dry, it was so dry. Parched took

252
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 2: his wife's water. All right?

253
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: Next, all right, next headline here, uh from euro Hoops.

254
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: We'll go with euro Hoops, Doc Rivers, this is a quote,

255
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: Joel Embiid is the most talented player that I ever coached.

256
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: Is this news? Trey Kurby, Doc Rivers showering dwell Embiid

257
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: with some praise medium news.

258
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 2: I don't know.

259
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: I guess it's only news because Doc currently coaches a

260
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 3: pretty talented player Intekopo. But look, Doc's coached a lot

261
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 3: of good players, and Embiid is very high on the

262
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 3: list for being talented considering his size and his skill.

263
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,599
Speaker 3: If you throw out the injuries, like, uh, it's like

264
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 3: he's got a good argument, Like look at the guys

265
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 3: that Doc has coached, Giannis Lillard, Embiid, Harden, Ben Simmons.

266
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 2: He was talented. He was talented.

267
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 3: Okay, it was an all NBA player once upon a time.

268
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 3: CP three, Blake if in KG, Pierce, Alan Rondo, Tracy McGrady,

269
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 3: Grant Hill, like he's coaching, it's fun of Hall of

270
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 3: Famers Grand Hill. Yeah, I mean he didn't get the

271
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 3: best of Grand Hill, but he was a super talented dude.

272
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 3: I mean Tracy McGrady was super talented Tracy. When Doc

273
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 3: had him as well, and embiid ranks highly on that list,

274
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 3: I would have to say point per minute when he

275
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 3: was at his best, finishing in the top two or

276
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 3: three in MVP voting for basically half of a decade.

277
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 3: Doc then did, of course, go on to make a

278
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 3: couple of excuses. Unfortunately for me, I never had him

279
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 3: healthy once in the playoffs. Rivers said he wasn't healthy

280
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 3: last year. Talk's not even coaching. Just dunk it on

281
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 3: Joel Eband wasn't healthy the year before. That's five years straight.

282
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 3: I think if he ever gets to the playoffs healthy,

283
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 3: especially adding some big pieces here, they're going to be

284
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 3: a dangerous team. So I think it's only news because

285
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:52,079
Speaker 3: Doc is coaching a guy that's won to MVPs like Doc.

286
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 2: Is just he'll just say stuff. Doc doesn't care. He's

287
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 2: going to be fired too here.

288
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 3: It just depends how long is Joannis around?

289
00:12:58,960 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 2: Yeah?

290
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, but what do you think is this news really

291
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 1: at all? Because some people are like, what's the big deal?

292
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: Other people are like, what why is a coach of

293
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: Giannis and the Bucks, especially with what they're going through

294
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: right now? Will jannest betrayed? Willy not saying this like

295
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: just maybe weird timing, Whether even if it's true or not.

296
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 2: It's not news because Jannis doesn't care. Jannis doesn't care

297
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 2: if somebody says there's somebody more talented. He has said

298
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 2: it in the past. Steph is more talented than me.

299
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 2: Kd is more talented than me. I work hard, That's

300
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 2: who I am and I am that guy.

301
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: Do you think Joel Embiid is more talented than you?

302
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 2: Honest? Yeah, I think about it. Yeah, when you go

303
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 2: through all the names, Yes, yes, I would say that,

304
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 2: and I do think Janice would agree. I mean maybe

305
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 2: he wouldn't say it right when he was asked about it.

306
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 2: Would he say that Joel Embiid Bean is more skilled? Yeah?

307
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 2: For sure?

308
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 3: Playing hard though, is a talentis has that in spades?

309
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: Yes? Yeah, it's all how you look at what a

310
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 2: talent is? That being said, it is the second part

311
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 2: that is a little bit wrong in my opinion. That

312
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 2: other part, unfortunately for me, I never had him healthy.

313
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 1: Once in the playoffs.

314
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 2: I don't buy that. I know he's been unhealthy. We've

315
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 2: seen it plenty of times. We saw it in the

316
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen Raptors Championship where Embid was sick and left

317
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 2: and played but was not healthy. And there are lots

318
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 2: of times where Embid is out. But I will say

319
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one, the second round of the playoffs, it

320
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 2: was that Ben Simmons series where the Philadelphia seventy six

321
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 2: ers lost to the Atlanta Hawks. Embiid played a lot.

322
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 2: He played thirty seven minutes per game. He scored thirty points,

323
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 2: he averaged thirteen boards and four assists. He played all

324
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 2: seven games in that second round series that they lost.

325
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 1: But he did have a knee injury, did he not?

326
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 2: Did he in that series?

327
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: I thought he did in twenty one, but I could

328
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: be they all sort of blend together because then he

329
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: had the one where he had a torn ligament in

330
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: his hand, but he also had a concussion and he

331
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 1: had the you know, the orbital fracture that was then

332
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: then another one too where he had a spring.

333
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 2: Is he so you had a lot like twenty one,

334
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 2: twenty two, twenty three? Is I think what?

335
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: I think that's the portion Dog is really alluding to.

336
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess. I mean he had adorable fracture because

337
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 2: of Pascal Siakam's arm. That was the elbow right to

338
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 2: his face. That was twenty two or twenty three. Yeah,

339
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 2: so I don't know. I don't buy that other part.

340
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 2: I think he was healthy something. There were parts, is

341
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. I mean seven games four he had

342
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 2: was in the playoffs. That was tough. That was Marcas

343
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 2: all right too, and he has the Spanish flu.

344
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, that's for sure.

345
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, there afters he was not healthy in that series,

346
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 2: but he didn't miss any in that twenty one series.

347
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 2: I'm picking one series, which is you know, there are

348
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 2: plenty of series with Joel As it has not been healthy.

349
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 2: That's that's totally true. But yeah, excuse me. Talk Rivers

350
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 2: is funny saying that he was hurt last year. He

351
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 2: didn't even coach him last year, by the way.

352
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: And then a part of this is like Doc was

353
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 1: saying if Inbeed is ever fully healthy in a playoff run,

354
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: especially with them adding some pieces. He talked about the Sixers.

355
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: They're going to be a dangerous team. But it all

356
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: comes down to whether or not Dwell and Beid is healthy.

357
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: Kenny Kenny withstand being healthy. Four obviously four rounds or

358
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: even even three if they want to try and get

359
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: to a commerce finels. That's what he's saying. But it's

360
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 1: just it's just classic weird Doc Rivers timing. He's bigging

361
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: up a guy you coach, like that's cool, but maybe.

362
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 2: Not right now.

363
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: Maybe not right now, but maybe you don't care. That's

364
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: why we're asking it. And is this news? That was

365
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: the perfect headline for is this.

366
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 2: That was a perfect actusline. And it was very fun

367
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 2: going through Guannis's quotes because of this Doc Rivers quote,

368
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 2: because I really enjoyed reading him say, I'm not as

369
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 2: talented as Steph, I'm not as talented as KD. I'm desperate,

370
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 2: I'm obsessed, so I work as hard as I can

371
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 2: because I don't want to lose this shit. That's his quote.

372
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 2: Picking and choosing of what you believe is unbelievable. Daix

373
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 2: shit goes does not have to make a decision. But

374
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 2: I love that quote. Just reading that quote, will he

375
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 2: say that Embiid is in that sort of category as

376
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 2: Steph and KD. I don't know what would yant to

377
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 2: say that. I mean, I'm curious.

378
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: I'm curious if they ask Honest, hey, what do you

379
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: think of docs saying uh, yes, telling somebody what are

380
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:22,959
Speaker 1: your thoughts?

381
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 2: And honest usually has a lot of thoughts on things.

382
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 2: So yeah, I can't wait for his response. Yeah, it

383
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 2: was a fun game to watch between those two teams.

384
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 2: Other than Jericho, Sims likes he could have been a guard,

385
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 2: a guy to guard Joel Embiid, but he was out there,

386
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 2: oh man anyway.

387
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: And be thrown down an oop. Though it was fun.

388
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 3: He's got ten dunks now for ever to get one. Yeah,

389
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 3: I got ten dunks the MAXI found him on the

390
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 3: on the fast break for an oop and they went crazy, insane,

391
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,440
Speaker 3: like he was a student manager getting his first points

392
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 3: on the varsity like that.

393
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 2: He felt like a party.

394
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 3: It was like a cool dunk and here's news. I

395
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 3: feel like in Bead's got a Legiti All Star case

396
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 3: right now? Whoa playing really really well? I think it

397
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 3: kind of goes hand in hand with the nets cratering,

398
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 3: So maybe he steals like a Michael Porter junior spot

399
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,880
Speaker 3: in the Eastern Conference, or oddly enough, he could take

400
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 3: Giannis's spot.

401
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 2: Both Eastern Conference.

402
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 3: Players would be on international teams. And Beid is at

403
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 3: twenty six games, but he's playing right now. Jannis is

404
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 3: only at thirty games.

405
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 2: He's hurt.

406
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he won't be there for the All Star Game,

407
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 3: so I wouldn't be totally surprised to see him be

408
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 3: getting named. He had twenty nine points in twenty nine

409
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 3: minutes last night.

410
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 2: Yeah I was.

411
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 1: I was surprised they didn't fire off the confetti canyon

412
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: there in Philadelphia like the one time krkmas hit a

413
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: shot there for in beads al Oop is what I mean?

414
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 2: That was awesome. Oh.

415
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: Also, I don't know if it'll make the Worst of

416
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: the week running, so hopefully I'm not stepping on any

417
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 1: toes here. But how about that weird Jurassic Park in game.

418
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what you call it, gorilla marketing advertisements.

419
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 2: It's a collab integration. Fascinating, Yeah, but I wouldn't put

420
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 2: it worse the week. No, I thought they executed it

421
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,959
Speaker 2: all right. Oh, I don't think Reggie did well with

422
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 2: that one.

423
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: Were they in on it. Yeah, well yeah, because it

424
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,199
Speaker 1: was Peacock, it was NBC. It's basically are saying you

425
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 1: can watch it on NBC, didn't say watch on Exfinity.

426
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: I think NBC. And is it Exfinity?

427
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 2: The arena? Oh they're in Philadelphia? Is that are they?

428
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 2: Wells Fargo?

429
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 3: I don't remember what the arena is called, way worse

430
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 3: Brody Mobile arena. I thought it wasn't like a sixer

431
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 3: specific activation. Well what's the specific part for the sixers though?

432
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 3: Because they're in Exfinity?

433
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 2: I get that. But oh so they're just saying go

434
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 2: watch it on Inxfinity. Yeah, I don't. Nonetheless, it was weird.

435
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: Well Reggie and that on it. They were told why

436
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: would they?

437
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 2: Reggie kept saying he.

438
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: Was over selling it like crazy. Oh my god, let

439
00:19:59,080 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: it breathe for a second.

440
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 2: What's the magic word you wanted to know? It's never revealed.

441
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 3: That's in one of the unanswered questions of Jurassic Park

442
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 3: that we're still waiting for answers on gout Go.

443
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 1: Check out our Jurassic Pals series here on No Dunks YouTube.

444
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: It's got its own playlist where we broke down every

445
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 1: Jurassic Park movie and we'll continue to break down every

446
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 1: Jurassic Park movie because there'll be another one coming.

447
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 3: I think the Rebirth made like a billion dollars still,

448
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 3: and it wasn't even horrible.

449
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, but we'll talk about it that in Fast and Furious.

450
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: We'll keep doing it, and we keep hoping for a

451
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:38,880
Speaker 1: crossover between the two that's diesel versus a dinosaur. Honestly,

452
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: it'll happen.

453
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 3: I would like to see Vin versus the Friar tucks.

454
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, each other.

455
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 3: Would probably cause a fissure in the Earth's crust that

456
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 3: those two smacked faces.

457
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:57,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, next headline, Real GM Lawrence Frank Clippers agree

458
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: to a four year extension is the Neoze and the

459
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: real news by way of the Athletic. But Real GM

460
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: had a nice slick headline for us.

461
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 2: But is this news? I think Lawrence Frank is a

462
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 2: good company man and frankly frankly definitely no pun intended,

463
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 2: but Frankly, I think they like the stability of having

464
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 2: Lawrence Frank there and keeping that front office the same. Listen,

465
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 2: he's done some good things. He had to sit in

466
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 2: a meeting with Chris Paul four hours and break it

467
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 2: to him that alone is worth it. Yeah, maybe not,

468
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 2: maybe not four years, but multiple hours and say hey,

469
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 2: you're a Hall of Famer man, but you got to

470
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 2: go home essentially, and he got it done. Now other

471
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 2: parts where he said, have we got Bradley Beal? Yeah,

472
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 2: third times a charm because they tried to get Bradley

473
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,360
Speaker 2: bal multiple times. The third time was not a charm.

474
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 2: It was an interesting move considering they haven't won a

475
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 2: playoff series since twenty twenty one and they just got

476
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 2: older and more injured with a guy like Bradley Beal.

477
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:01,640
Speaker 2: I mean, they didn't have to pay a lot for him.

478
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 2: All that to be to say, do you want to

479
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 2: get older with Bradley Beal? Oh that to say stability

480
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 2: in the front office is fine? So is this news?

481
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 2: I think I think it's it's fine. He's also he

482
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 2: must be buds with Steve Bomber. Very good. Well, that's

483
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 2: what people are saying. He knows where the bodies are buried.

484
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to keep him close and maybe he

485
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: does when it comes to the obviously, the allegations around

486
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: the circumvention of.

487
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 2: The he saw it just happened with the Lakers.

488
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 3: All of the other buses were fired and suddenly we

489
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 3: get an expose on the ins and outs of the

490
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 3: family drama and the sale around there. So I don't

491
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 3: think it's totally out of the realm of possibility that

492
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 3: that's part of the reason. Also, Laurence Frank has done

493
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 3: like a pretty good job. I think it's not his

494
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 3: fault that Kawhi Leonard and Paul George previously kept getting hurt.

495
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 3: Did he still build a team around those guys, Yeah,

496
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 3: he did, but he also hired ty Lu. He's found

497
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 3: some decent like young guys that are contributing this year,

498
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 3: and everybody was excited about the moves they made over

499
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 3: the off season. It took half of a season for

500
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 3: them to actually pay off. You also look like, who's

501
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 3: going to be the replacement? They could hire somebody that's

502
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 3: already on another team that's tough to do. They could

503
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 3: get Bob Myers away from whatever he's doing right now.

504
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 3: Dennis lindsay, I suppose is another name, but it's like,

505
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 3: who are you going to replace him?

506
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 2: Let's so why not keep him around?

507
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, my gut says this extension was supposed to happen,

508
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,360
Speaker 1: probably much earlier in the season, but then the Clippers

509
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 1: started six and sixteen because the Athletic was reporting it

510
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: back then, right all they were hearing whispers about this

511
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 1: contract extension but it never materialized. But the optics were

512
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: so bad because you had the whole obviously allegations and

513
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: the league investigating what the hell happened with Kawhi and

514
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,160
Speaker 1: Bomber and all that. Then you had the Chris Paul

515
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: of it all, so that got messy and you had

516
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,199
Speaker 1: to deal with that, and they were just bad, so

517
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 1: it would have looked really, really bad. I think to like,

518
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,959
Speaker 1: hand this guy a four year extension. They got rid

519
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,119
Speaker 1: of Chris Paul. Obviously the investigation is still ongoing, but okay,

520
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: don't hold your breath on that. And they've turned it

521
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: around like they're good now again. So now it's like, okay,

522
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 1: now we can do it now now when we're a

523
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: headline on No Dunks, they may not think it's that

524
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 1: big a deal. So my gut says that's probably was

525
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: the case. Good timing, Yeah, they just had to wait

526
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: a little bit.

527
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 3: Here they went three and sixteen followed by a sixteen

528
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 3: and three run like that's crazy.

529
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah it is, And now they're what they're in

530
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 1: the plan here try and make their way up. There's

531
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: obviously a lot of seasons still to go, so yeah,

532
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 1: but I guess you can.

533
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 2: Debate whether yeah, he has done a great job.

534
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a very old team. They're they're banking

535
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: on these guys, these star players playing. I mean, it's

536
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 1: not dissimilar really to Joel Embiid, Like, damn, your team's

537
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: awesome when Joel Embid looks like an all NBA guy,

538
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: But you know, cross your fingers that he's there.

539
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 2: Same with Kawhi, Yeah right here, right now. It feels

540
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 2: like they're super old and they are. But at the

541
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 2: same time, their salaries do expire pretty soon, you know,

542
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 2: So who are you trusting to go forward with the

543
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 2: front up with that roster? And you trust Lawrence Frank

544
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 2: to some degree. I get it that they as I said,

545
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 2: the Bradley Beal thing, but John Collins is expiring very

546
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 2: very soon. I trust Lawrence. I trust him, And maybe

547
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 2: I don't know why I trust Lawrence, but I trust him.

548
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, would you trust him as much if he went

549
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 3: by Larry Larry Frank? I agree, Lawrence is a much

550
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 3: more trustworthy GM. Well, we have more name talk later

551
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 3: and beached up. Speaking of investigations, did you guys hear

552
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 3: the pablotry finds out? I did, Robert Para. That's interesting.

553
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 1: Explain it for the listener that has no idea what

554
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: you're talking about.

555
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 3: Well, basically, Robert Para's company, his tech company that he's

556
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 3: made his fortune on Ubiquity, provides Wi Fi access points.

557
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 3: These access points are being sold through third party retailers

558
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 3: to the Russian military to basically enable their drone warfare

559
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 3: in the Ukraine.

560
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

561
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 3: This is against sanctions from the United States. So this

562
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 3: to me actually seeing like probably the biggest story that

563
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 3: Pablo has done, because it's not circumventing the salary cap,

564
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:10,119
Speaker 3: it's not gambling on sports. This is like potentially aiding

565
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 3: in a betting war crimes, right, So I wonder how

566
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 3: long this takes to play out because this is going

567
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 3: to be something that the government has to investigate more

568
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 3: so than Adam Silver. But yeah, that was a crazy

569
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 3: episode to listen.

570
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 1: To, absolutely, and it's I highly recommend go listen to

571
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 1: that latest Pablo podcast on this. But him reminding me

572
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 1: of like Robert Para, who like we never hear of

573
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 1: any more ever, he even calls him like the invisible

574
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: owner that you just never hear his name anymore. Obviously

575
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 1: the owner of the Grizzlies here, but we used to

576
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: all the time. Remember he was like challenging Tony Allen

577
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 1: to a one on one game, and then he was

578
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 1: challenging Mark Cuban and like we talked about it.

579
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,919
Speaker 2: I'm sure we did, but that was years ago. So

580
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 2: and Bablo gets into that too. Yeah, yeah, he gets

581
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 2: into the one on one challenges. Very funny, but yeah,

582
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 2: I didn't know the satellite part. Very interesting as a

583
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,919
Speaker 2: rival to starlink Elon Musk company that was in Ukraine,

584
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 2: if I'm not mistaken, as well, not for the Russian military,

585
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:12,239
Speaker 2: but was there in Ukraine to assist way back, if

586
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,680
Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken either way, Very interesting.

587
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens from that final headline. Less important, complex,

588
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 1: says Shams Sharanya. The ESPN insider himself to play in

589
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six NBA All Star Celebrity Game, and

590
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: he basically talked on ESPN about him going in it,

591
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 1: and he said, I'm a shooter, I can handle the

592
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 1: ball and I can make my floaters. Trey Kirby Scham's

593
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 1: playing in the All Star Celebrity Game.

594
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 2: Is this news? Sure? This is news.

595
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 3: Can't believe Shams didn't break it, thought, yeah, it's the

596
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 3: news breaker out there. But maybe you want to give

597
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 3: somebody else a little scoopy scoop. But I'm excited to

598
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,399
Speaker 3: see what he's like. We've talked to him about playing basketball,

599
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 3: and he said he plays like Jennaro Parka.

600
00:27:58,320 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 2: I can never know.

601
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 3: I was like, you are a Chicago guy. Respect so

602
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 3: we'll see. Said he hits threes, said he shoots floaters.

603
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 3: That sounds like Pargo to me. Yeah, so we'll see

604
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 3: what he's got. Anytime an actual media person gets into

605
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 3: the Celebrity Game, I'm excited because you got to show

606
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 3: up for all of them.

607
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 2: I don't know a little something.

608
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 1: Man Newsworthy, Will you be tuning in to see champs?

609
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 2: I think this is the most interesting I've been in

610
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 2: a celebrity game since the inception of the Celebrity Game. Wow,

611
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 2: pre pre game like this far ahead. Yes, there has

612
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 2: been rosters revealed and maybe I started thinking about Okay, yeah, sure,

613
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 2: I want to see Hassan Minhaj and see what he

614
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 2: can do out there. I do want to see Arnie

615
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 2: Duncan and see what he can do out there. But

616
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 2: are there any other players that you can remember that

617
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 2: you wanted to see in the Celebrity Game? I mean there,

618
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 2: I was excited with Quavo made it.

619
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: There was a fascination with Bieber way back in the

620
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: when he was obviously playing in this thing, when he

621
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 1: was super super young at the time. No, this is exciting.

622

623
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 1: I hope still time. I guess love to see Wosh

624
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,959
Speaker 1: play against him. He imagine being like a one on

625
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: one meeting or Lebron and Kobe twenty sixteen All Star

626

00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 2: You imagine that? Yeah? Who would be the drake if.

628
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 1: Wo and Shan's in the All Star Celebrity Game were

629
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 1: getting into it?

630
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 3: Adam Schefter, Yeah, I guess, I don't know.

631
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 2: I don't I'm not sure. I let us know in

632
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 2: the stream. It's not dripping for some reason, he'd be

633
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 2: the guy. He'd be the guy to come up because

634
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 2: he just likes rivalry, Internet rivalries. The Temecula guy.

635
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, anyway, I'd love to see, uh, I can't

636
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: wait to see shops. So hopefully he plays all right.

637
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean get some buckets.

638
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, make one who will highlight if you can, and

639
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 1: then make a couple buckets and just basically don't humiliate yourself.

640
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 1: I mean that's like, you're not going in this if

641
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: you think you'd humiliate yourself, like literally can't trouble or

642
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 1: can't like I doubt you'd go in it. He's got

643
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 1: some confidence to go in it, let's put it that way. Also,

644
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 1: Glorilla and Mustard are expected to participate, so we know

645
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: those two names. Well, A lot of people think, does

647
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 2: Does she have a clause?

648
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: I will play in the celebrity game if my significant

649
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 1: other here is selected. I'm just throwing it out there.

650
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 3: Mustard, yea indeed, who will yell Mustard on the broadcast?

651
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 2: This is an ESPN who's even on these great questions?

652
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 2: Who knows we'll see I don't know.

653
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: Oh okay, what else could be funny?

654
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 2: Though?

655
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: For Seam's breaking news within the All Star Game would

656
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 1: be hilarious.

657
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 3: Yep, he would never do this if they had kept

658
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 3: the trade deadline after the All star break. You're right, sorry,

659
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 3: I can't take an hour and a half off. Do

660
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 3: you think he'll play with his phone in his hand?

661
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 3: He's got to also funny, very funny. A lot of ideas,

662
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 3: a lot of ideas.

663
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 1: Shops, you know, somehow we're never invited into this thing,

664
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: but we got a lot of ideas for you.

665
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 2: You can go pro that phone, put it on his

666
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 2: head and did he basically record what he's used that

667
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 2: camera for the broadcast? Okay, lots of ideas. All right,

668
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 2: that's just this news. Let's take a break and then

669
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 2: we'll hit the beach to answer a few of your questions.

670
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 2: The reason I wish the super Bowl was this Sunday

671
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 2: rather than a week later is because my snacks. I mean,

672
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 2: I want to get into them asap. This just means

673
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 2: they're getting older because of my pantry is full, because

674
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 2: you stocked up with the cold weather.

675
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:50,239
Speaker 1: I'm in the ice storm and all that.

676
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 2: No, they've just gathered. My snacks just gathered. I've got

677
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 2: I've got the will to stay away from my snacks,

678
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 2: so literally, I've got some sour cream and onion that

679
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 2: need to be eat and I've got those sweet potato

680
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 2: chips we talked about a while back. JD. They don't

681
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 2: really taste like sweet potatoes, but they're a good vessel

682
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 2: for a snack. They're nice and crunchy. I got some nibs.

683
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 2: Are nibs different in Canada than they are here for

684
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 2: for my Canadians, But I feel like maybe a tiny

685
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 2: bit different there's the texture is all the same. Anyways,

686
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 2: they're still good, but I would like to get to

687
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 2: them this Sunday. Now they're just seven days older.

688
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 3: That's going to have a Pro Bowl party, the Pro Bowl.

689
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right. I had a great season.

690
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was really good to more interceptions and touchdowns

691
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 3: I saw Pro Bowl.

692
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 2: But it's good for the defense. Yeah, I guess, yeah,

693
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 2: Pro Bowl. I didn't know that Super Bowl sixty is

694
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,920

00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 2: to get started. Are you thinking of having a Super

703
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 2: Bowl party? I haven't contemplated. I it's so far from now,

704
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 2: ten days time to play eleven. Yeah.

705
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're not a fan of this two week

706
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: break between the conference championships in the finals? No, because

707
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: I'm with you.

708
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 2: The Super Bowl is an excuse to eat everything, and

709
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 2: I want them as fresh as possible, even if they're

710
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 2: two months old. I'm not getting rid of them. I'm

711
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 2: not trashing that, I'm not throwing anything out. So I'd

712
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 2: rather have them be one month and three weeks old

713
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 2: rather than two full months old. That's what I'm trying

714
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 2: to say. Okay, yeah, but uh, it doesn't matter when

715
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 2: Super Bowl is. I mean, oh, I just wish it

716
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 2: was this weekend too, just because we've we're ready. You

717
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 2: want to see the Seahawks Pats.

718
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: It's just we play they play football every Sunday. Yeah,

719
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 1: and then suddenly we have a week off.

720
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, and like, uh, conference championships are awesome. You know.

721
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 2: The Bears were actually good this year, so I.

722
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,319
Speaker 3: Was locked in to the playoffs. And then they just

723
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 3: hit the brakes and it's like okay, yeah, see in

724
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:12,279
Speaker 3: a couple of weeks.

725
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say it really doesn't help like this

726
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 1: Super Bowl matchup either. Sometimes like Okay, we can build

727
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: the buzz for like two weeks, but like, yeah, I

728
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: don't know about this one.

729
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll just play it. Maybe it'll be a great game.

730
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: We gotta wait so long, yep, but they got to

731
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,800
Speaker 1: travel to California, We got a media row, and we

732
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 1: gotta make a bunch of fake stories they must play.

733
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 1: Is this news all the time when it comes to

734
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:34,360
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl?

735
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 2: Probably?

736
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: You know he's like little tiny, like is this even newsworthy? Oh,

737
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: let's talk about it for an hour.

738
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 2: Is this news?

739
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick snubbed for the Hall of Fame?

740
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 2: That's news.

741
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 3: That's crazy. They're gonna be asked about that. It's the

742
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,320
Speaker 3: Patriots are in the Super Bowl? Yeah, it should have

743
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 3: been in what what's the reasoning? I mean, people were

744
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 3: speculating that the Colts guy Bill Pollian was like voting

745
00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 3: against it because they wanted to make Bill Belichick wait

746
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 3: a year for the various scandals that engulfed the Patriots

747
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:05,800
Speaker 3: during his time.

748
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 2: Spygate, to flake gate.

749
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 3: Okay, I think those are the only gates they had,

750
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 3: but they were saying you were stepping outside the bounds

751
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 3: a little bit. But they also won so many super Bowls.

752
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 3: I think he won eight super Bowls total, including the Giants.

753
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 1: So this guy, he's trying to make a point like, yeah,

754
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 1: we're not putting you in right away. Yeah, because you

755
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: did some suspicious things.

756
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, because this is his first year he's eligible. Yeah.

757
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 2: Reggie Miller was not happy on the broadcast going to commercial.

758
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 2: He said before we go to commercial, actually didn't say that,

759
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 2: he just said, what the heck put Belichick in? He

760
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 2: was mad six as a as a coach, and what

761
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 2: are the other two?

762
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 3: Two as the defensive coordinator. I guess for the Giants

763
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 3: during the Parcels era?

764
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 1: Ah, way back? Yeah, he beat our Bills, didn't.

765
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 2: He back to back Jacks? Guess?

766
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 1: So did they win to in a row?

767
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 2: I don't know the Giants. I assume he was on those,

768
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 2: so beat the Bills.

769
00:35:56,160 --> 00:36:02,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, for one time, HiT's hit the beach.

770
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 2: I got I got to it. We got that shack down. Blah,

771
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 2: you've done that.

772
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: Okay, our first question, because we're on the beach, the

773
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:21,920
Speaker 1: only place to read your emails and your tweets, and

774
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 1: it comes from Brom. It's the inception sound in me

775
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:32,840
Speaker 1: Skeets mentioned Conka Nipple's rookie stats are comparable to Steph Curry's. Admittedly,

776
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,840
Speaker 1: I don't meticulously follow the Hornets, but if I squimt

777
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,879
Speaker 1: my eyes enough when watching con play, I can see

778
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: a future star.

779
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:40,880
Speaker 2: No real proof.

780
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 1: I'm no scout, and I'm definitely just correlating the three

781
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,479
Speaker 1: point shooting with oh new Steff type deal. I guess

782
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 1: it's just a gut feeling. That's something you guys were

783
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,399
Speaker 1: sure of but had no tangible proof to back the claim.

784
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 1: Pod in the low time turn up no hemorrhoids awesome?

785
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:05,439
Speaker 2: Again, that's right, Brom. What do you think start a year?

786
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 2: Hearing Trey repeat the line there from Brohm multiple times

787
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 2: in the studio yesterday, Pod in the lout time turn

788
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 2: up no hemorrhoids awesome was very funny, Bromy did it.

789
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 3: The human mind is amazing things that people can think of.

790
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 3: You would never you wouldn't have never thought to put

791
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 3: these like twelve words in order. Never Pod in the

792
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 3: lout that alone's been never saying the first time then

793
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 3: turn up. I don't really still understand no hemorrhoids. Okay,

794
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 3: that's awesome. Yes, in turn up. When I think turns,

795
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 3: I don't think up.

796
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 2: I turn down. What hear that a lot? Yeah? That

797
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 2: turn up?

798
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,879
Speaker 1: What's something you but had no tangible proof to back

799
00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:57,400
Speaker 1: the claim.

800
00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was kind of trying to segue to Trey

801
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 2: because my order is reverse. I'll take it here. My

802
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:05,880
Speaker 2: order is literally reverse. Because when we've been recently talking

803
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 2: about the Clippers in any sort of way and Blake

804
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 2: Griffin potentially getting the Hall of Fame, I think back

805
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 2: and think the Clippers had some success, but I'm wrong.

806
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 2: They really didn't. Lob City Clippers specifically didn't have a

807
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:24,280
Speaker 2: lot of success. They got to a second round multiple times,

808
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 2: but that's about it. So looking back instead of looking

809
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 2: forward in the loo, as I listened to this pod,

810
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 2: looking back, it's just been seared in my brain because

811
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 2: of everything positive that's happened with the Clippers during that run. Essentially,

812
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 2: they were Twitter for a while. They were just so

813
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:47,839
Speaker 2: big on Twitter, especially Blake Griffin and their dunks, and

814
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 2: so I just thought that Lob City accomplished more and

815
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 2: I was wrong essentially about that. But it is in

816
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 2: my head that they got further than the second round,

817
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 2: that they got further than beating the Warriors in the

818
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,800
Speaker 2: first round when Andrew Bogut got hurt that time and

819
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 2: they're playing David Lee at center, or further than being

820
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 2: the Spurs off of their championship in the first round

821
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 2: getting to the second round. They'd beat the Grizzlies and

822
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 2: Marcus Solt. That's all they did. I thought they maybe

823
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,879
Speaker 2: got to a conference final, but I'm wrong. My brain's raw,

824
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 2: my brain is amazing, my brain is rising. Yeah, my

825
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 2: brain is a right time.

826
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 3: But yeah, it does feel like when you're just thinking

827
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,280
Speaker 3: about the eras that the Lob City Clippers accomplished more

828
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 3: than the Kawhi Paul George Clippers.

829
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 2: But no, yeah, right, technically they did. Yeah, yeah, the

830
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 2: Kauhi Clippers got to a conference final. You could say, hey,

831
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 2: the Clippers did it for a longer time, like we're

832
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,439
Speaker 2: together for a longer time. I mean they played six

833
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:44,319
Speaker 2: and a half years, I guess together. Will Kawhi and

834
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 2: Paul George didn't play that long together. But yeah, not

835
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,240
Speaker 2: a lot of success. They didn't get to a conference finals, right, period,

836
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 2: What do you Got Here two K.

837
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 3: In twenty fourteen, the Miami Heat and Brooklyn Nets played

838
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,919
Speaker 3: a game where they all wore nicknames on the back

839
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:01,919
Speaker 3: of their jerseys. This included Ray Allen, who wore Jay Shuttlesworth,

840
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 3: and I was convinced it was because Spike Lee was

841
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 3: going to be using this footage to make a He

842
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 3: Got Game sequel where Jesus Shuttlesworth gets to the NBA

843
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 3: and has to compete against all these players. Woh, no

844
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 3: news on that one yet, but it's a great idea.

845
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 3: It's a good way to get Lebron into He Got

846
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 3: Game Part two? He still Got Game. Yeah, I guess

847
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,799
Speaker 3: is maybe what it would be called. I guess Ray

848
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,720
Speaker 3: Allen has said he's left the door open for the sequel,

849
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,799
Speaker 3: but Denzel doesn't make a lot of sequels until the

850
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:36,240
Speaker 3: Equalizer series, and now they've made a couple of them.

851
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 2: So I guess the door is still open.

852
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 1: Still open. So he would be I guess father to

853
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: a new up and coming.

854
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 2: Player, Jesus Shuttlesworth. Great question, like how would you do?

855
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:53,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, like maybe his son, Jesus Shuttlesworth's son, and he's

856
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 3: like telling about his time through Big State and making

857
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,520
Speaker 3: it to the NBA's like, yeah, check out the footage

858
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 3: is him playing with Macy, Yeah, going against Birdman or

859
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,760
Speaker 3: playing with Birdman, all this kind of stuff. But yeah,

860
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 3: I don't think it's actually gonna happen, but cool if

861
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:10,480
Speaker 3: it did.

862
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 1: Man, Yeah it's I I'll play a classic here in

863
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 1: No Dunk's Land about something I was sure of, no

864
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: tangible proof. I'm going way way back, but longtime listeners

865
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. When I predicted that Jason

866
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 1: Maxiel would be an All Star before Danny Granger, just

867
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,799
Speaker 1: felt it in my bones. You know, I'm no scout either, brum,

868
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:34,279
Speaker 1: but I just was like, yeah, max Seal, I like

869
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 1: what I see from this guy.

870
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 2: This guy's gonna be an All Star in the East.

871
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 2: Danny Granger, He's okay, but he's never gonna hit that level.

872
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 2: But I was wrong.

873
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 1: And I bring this up because people reminding us on

874
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:45,839
Speaker 1: sub stack and in some of the YouTube comments over

875
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,280
Speaker 1: the last couple of days, with all of this talk

876
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 1: of rich Homie Flom eating the tweet about the Clippers

877
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: like his bad prediction, people are like, you guys did

878
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:58,839
Speaker 1: this once before, sort of oh what we did, Yeah,

879
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,479
Speaker 1: we did back in I guess two thousand and nine,

880
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: ten something like that. I think two thousand and nine

881
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 1: we were eating tape, actual tape because the joke was

882
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 1: all this stuff we said, like Maxill would be an

883
00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:14,719
Speaker 1: All Star before Danny Granger didn't come true.

884
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 2: We should eat our words.

885
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 1: So we ate our words that were on a tape

886
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:20,200
Speaker 1: cassette because we did the podcast. Now, this was amazingly

887
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 1: off of a story from Chicago. U was his name Rick?

888
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 2: Not Rick Morrissey? Yeah? Was it Rick Morson?

889
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:33,719
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, Chicago, he's a Sun Times. Yeah, anyway he did.

890
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: He basically was like Jokim Noah's gonna suck is what

891
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: his whole thing was, and he wrote an article on it,

892
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 1: and then he was wrong. Jokim Noah turned into be

893
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:44,479
Speaker 1: like a great player, was good as a rookie even,

894
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,320
Speaker 1: and so he ate his article a piece of his article.

895
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 1: So this is like, you know, this has happened before

896
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:52,320
Speaker 1: we go back to the blog days. But this is

897
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 1: rich Homi Flam keeping up a long tradition in NBA

898
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:59,160
Speaker 1: media of eating either your newspaper article or your tape

899
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 1: or tweet. Now in rich Home just want to bring

900
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: that up, and we go ahead.

901
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:08,840
Speaker 3: Most people don't really recognize that you guys originally recorded

902
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 3: straight to cassette tape.

903
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:11,399
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right.

904
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,920
Speaker 3: How did you get it onto an iPod? No one knows. Yeah,

905
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:16,279
Speaker 3: but yeah, that's how it was done.

906
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:18,279
Speaker 1: You had to actually you had to mail. You had

907
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 1: to mail us and we would put the tape in

908
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 1: the mail and send it to the podcast.

909
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 2: Has there ever been one recording on a DAT tape

910
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 2: or something? Jd Oric, I'm going random type of tapes. Tapes.

911
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:34,880
Speaker 2: DAD tapes is another form of not exactly like a

912
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:36,720
Speaker 2: VHS tape, but you know similar.

913
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:41,439
Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure we recorded every episode on DAT.

914
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,760
Speaker 1: I was going to say, I can picture these tapes. Yeah, yeah,

915
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: Oh that's why I bring it up.

916
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 2: I guess yes, in the back of my brain somewhere

917
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 2: we put it on DAT.

918
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 4: Well, we were recording directly into pro tools, but I

919
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 4: had the DAT going as a backup.

920
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 2: Back up for a while.

921
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, which came in handy many many times.

922
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,919
Speaker 1: So we've been on a great certified classic run here

923
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:05,800
Speaker 1: with some that we've been sharing on our YouTube page.

924
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 1: We do have that one, that whole segment, that whole

925
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,520
Speaker 1: skit of us eating tape so we'll throw that one

926
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:13,440
Speaker 1: up in the coming days, so make sure you subscribe

927
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 1: to you It's pretty funny.

928
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 2: I just watched it is couple seconds. We made a mess.

929
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:19,879
Speaker 2: I'll tell you that.

930
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 1: In my old condo party room, we were smart. We

931
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 1: put paper down like we were gonna have like a

932
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, like crab boil or something like that.

933
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd forgotten about Matt coming coming around with a

934
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 2: salt and ketchup. Oh yeah, you're like scorting mustard like

935
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:38,280
Speaker 2: way in the air at one point, Like it's pretty gross.

936
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 2: It's gross. Yeah, yeah, yeah, thanks of I mean, come around,

937
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 2: we're now we're eating tweets. DJ Muster is gonna be

938
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:51,720
Speaker 2: playing the game all right, next one. Alas, I emailed

939
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,279
Speaker 2: this a few years ago, but I feel like it's

940
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 2: become relevant again this season. Hot take.

941
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 1: R J.

942
00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:02,719
Speaker 2: Barrett will have a better career than Zion or Jamrant. Wow. Wow,

943
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:07,399
Speaker 2: Leaving your Canadian bias aside, let's discuss turkey nuts made

944
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:13,879
Speaker 2: some pies awful. That's from into Gold Coast, Australia. So RJ.

945
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,080
Speaker 2: Barrett will have a better career than Zion or John Rant.

946
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 2: I don't remember into saying it, but I kind of do,

947
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,439
Speaker 2: but I kind of don't. Is it true now, Trey,

948
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,280
Speaker 2: this is tough. Yeah.

949
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 3: Uh. RJ has played more games than either Jaw or Zion.

950
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 3: He's got more total points, more total rebounds. RJ and

951
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:36,040
Speaker 3: Zion both currently under five hundred for their career. Jaw's

952
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 3: the only one with a winning record throughout his career.

953
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 3: One playoff series win for RJ maybe gets more this year.

954
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 3: One playoff series win for Jaw, and then Zion, of

955
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 3: course has never played in the playoffs. But Jaw's a

956
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,240
Speaker 3: one time All NBA player, two time All Star. Zion's

957
00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:54,399
Speaker 3: a two time All Star. RJ Barrett probably won't ever

958
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 3: make an All Star team in his career. So what

959
00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:01,480
Speaker 3: do you value more being able to play and therefore

960
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:05,160
Speaker 3: compiling better counting stats or having a really high peak

961
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:06,760
Speaker 3: where you were one of the best players in the league.

962
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,759
Speaker 3: I would take the ladder, though. It definitely feels like

963
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 3: John's eye on having come close to living up to

964
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:17,160
Speaker 3: their potential, whereas r J's probably reached his potential.

965
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,160
Speaker 2: What you got? It's a good question. Yeah, it's a

966
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,160
Speaker 2: great question. The difference is right here, right now, in

967
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,759
Speaker 2: this moment. RJ Barrett knows what he is, and he

968
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 2: is thriving being who he is. Last year he was

969
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 2: giving the ball plenty because everybody else was injured. Ingram

970
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 2: was injured, Barnes was injured, quickly was injured. Here, you're

971
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 2: the guy make place. And this year, when everybody's gotten healthy,

972
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 2: he's decided, all right, I'll go to what I'm great

973
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:48,880
Speaker 2: at doing all the time. He's just so so efficient

974
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,160
Speaker 2: at being a cutter, at finishing at the room. He's

975
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:53,879
Speaker 2: seventy percent at the rim. He's real good.

976
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

977
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, turnovers are a career low because he said, all right,

978
00:46:57,160 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 2: I'm not the playmaker anymore. Everybody else making place doing that.

979
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,160
Speaker 2: He doesn't take long twos. Only three percent of his

980
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:07,920
Speaker 2: shots are long twos. So yeah, it's their different careers,

981
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 2: that's for sure. But he's just thriving at that and

982
00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:13,319
Speaker 2: huge bonus. He loves Toronto. He loves where he is,

983
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,719
Speaker 2: loves where he grew up. And there's that part of it.

984
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:18,799
Speaker 2: Toronto loves him. He loves Toronto. Can't say the same

985
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:22,000
Speaker 2: about the other guys in the same way, that's for sure.

986
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:25,160
Speaker 1: It is an interesting hypothetical. Let's say one of these

987
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:29,760
Speaker 1: coming expansion teams you know, Seattle or whatever, Las Vegas

988
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: get an opportunity because these three guys, for whatever reason,

989
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 1: are available. Who would they select right now? RJ Barrett,

990
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:41,840
Speaker 1: Zion Williamson, or John Moran. The Seattle SuperSonics get the

991
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:43,959
Speaker 1: first pick in the expansion draft and those three guys

992
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 1: are available. That's fun to think. It's like immediately like, wow,

993
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 1: they would take Zion or jamranover r J. Bartt Right,

994
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 1: I'm like I would they would they?

995
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 3: I think they would take Zion. I think he would

996
00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,520
Speaker 3: still go number one in this draft of the three

997
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:02,799
Speaker 3: of them. He's played like twenty two straight games. Yeah,

998
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 3: he looks good when he plays. I know it sounds ridiculous,

999
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 3: but he's already played more games than he did all

1000
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 3: last season.

1001
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,399
Speaker 2: You saw him going straight at Wemby. That was like.

1002
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 3: Interesting to see two of the most unique body types

1003
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 3: in the league, and like Zion was getting the better

1004
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 3: of him at times. I know the Bulls are a

1005
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:20,840
Speaker 3: team that has been kind of linked to potentially pursuing

1006
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,360
Speaker 3: Zion here at the trade deadline as well. I think

1007
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 3: between like the marketing that follows Zion. He's still a

1008
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:32,839
Speaker 3: star on Instagram at the very least, and the fact

1009
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 3: that he's like, who knows, literally he's gonna get hurt

1010
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:36,840
Speaker 3: immediately after.

1011
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:38,239
Speaker 2: Recording this podcast.

1012
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,279
Speaker 3: But the fact that he's on the court right now

1013
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 3: and producing, I think means he would be the guy

1014
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:43,920
Speaker 3: that gets chosen.

1015
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 1: I agree, But it's amazing we're even contemplating it. And

1016
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:52,359
Speaker 1: that does speak to how RJ. Barrett has grown into

1017
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 1: a better player since he was drafted third there overall

1018
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:57,640
Speaker 1: by the Knicks. I was pumped to see Mike Sheer

1019
00:48:57,719 --> 00:48:58,880
Speaker 1: at Basketball Poetry.

1020
00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 2: He included J.

1021
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,879
Speaker 1: Barrett on his short list of players who are having

1022
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,839
Speaker 1: great seasons that not enough people are talking about, and

1023
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 1: he wrote, Barrett's constant improvement continually surprises. He's slowly more

1024
00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 1: from a mechanical shot chucker to an indispensable, high scoring

1025
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:16,080
Speaker 1: glue guy.

1026
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 2: Now it sucks. RJ.

1027
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:19,759
Speaker 1: Barrett's been banged up this year too, like he's a

1028
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:22,879
Speaker 1: little injured. But good points from Sheer here.

1029
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:23,359
Speaker 2: RJ.

1030
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 1: Barrett doesn't have like a particular standout skill, but he's

1031
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:31,919
Speaker 1: sort of average or above average, just above average again

1032
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 1: in everything really when you think about it, thirty five

1033
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 1: percent three point shooter on decent volumes, So he's not

1034
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,840
Speaker 1: like elite but he's not brutal. He can handle the

1035
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,080
Speaker 1: ball and pass a little bit, but you're not running

1036
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: your offense through RJ.

1037
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:45,000
Speaker 2: Barrett.

1038
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,400
Speaker 1: He's a good rebounder, but not really a great one.

1039
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 1: He's not a defensive liability, but he's not a lockdown

1040
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:53,440
Speaker 1: defender like he is this sort of glue guy that

1041
00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:56,400
Speaker 1: can like doesn't really hurt you now because he's gotten

1042
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:58,719
Speaker 1: better and you brought up that he does generate a

1043
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:00,080
Speaker 1: lot of shots at the rim. That is his on

1044
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 1: strong suit there. Yeah, he's gotten better and more efficient

1045
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,359
Speaker 1: this year. So he's turned himself into this like off

1046
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,840
Speaker 1: ball player. So if you put him with the right players,

1047
00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:09,279
Speaker 1: he's a dangerous guy. So I just thought that was

1048
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 1: a good point from sure how he's sort of just

1049
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,319
Speaker 1: he's a really good, just average guy.

1050
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:16,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's comfortable letting everybody else do the thing. And

1051
00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:18,799
Speaker 2: then he's a great slasher, great cutter. If I think

1052
00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:22,439
Speaker 2: of one shot, it's him able to body guys close

1053
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,239
Speaker 2: to the rim and finish with that lefty dinker dump

1054
00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 2: or whatever you call it.

1055
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:27,960
Speaker 1: He's good a transition too.

1056
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:31,080
Speaker 2: He's good at that. He's good at starring in his role.

1057
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,920
Speaker 2: As said, he's he's really good at that. The expansion

1058
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 2: thing is really interesting because what does the expansion team want?

1059
00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:41,319
Speaker 2: Do they want to air quotes star then they take

1060
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:41,600
Speaker 2: a check.

1061
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,600
Speaker 1: They want to sell they want to sell jerseysys create buzz. Yeah,

1062
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,280
Speaker 1: that's why you're taking jar Zion over r J Barrett.

1063
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:50,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is interesting to hear when I was looking

1064
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,920
Speaker 2: at the Zion stats to see him have more games

1065
00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:57,160
Speaker 2: played this year than last year. It's shucking because as

1066
00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,480
Speaker 2: that person said, yeah, r J. Barrett is sort of

1067
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 2: flying out of the radar, so as Zion in a way. Yeah,

1068
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 2: but team stakes as well. I mean that's part of it.

1069
00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:06,640
Speaker 2: One thing RJ.

1070
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 1: Barrett has over the other guys is he's got more

1071
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:14,320
Speaker 1: success in international basketball. He was pretty instrumental for Canada

1072
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,720
Speaker 1: winning a bronze at the World Cup and beating America

1073
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 1: in overtime. He had an awesome game. It was Brooks

1074
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:20,879
Speaker 1: that gets all like the headlines from that game because

1075
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:23,359
Speaker 1: he scored like thirty nine points. He was on fire,

1076
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 1: but Sga and Barrow was. He had some clutch shots

1077
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,439
Speaker 1: in that game, and he had he was He's played

1078
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:30,880
Speaker 1: with Team Canada for a long time, obviously when he

1079
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:35,399
Speaker 1: was quite young, good questions here, let's do another one.

1080
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 1: Dear no Donkey bunch, I know who this is from.

1081
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:42,840
Speaker 1: I was just listening to a very depressing Wheel of

1082
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,800
Speaker 1: Fandom episode about the sad state of the Milwaukee Bucks,

1083
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 1: and it got me thinking about how the Drew holiday

1084
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:51,879
Speaker 1: trade is even more justified given everything that's happened since

1085
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 1: their one championship. When is a time you went all

1086
00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 1: in and it totally worked out? You just got achieved

1087
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,520
Speaker 1: on that shout out to achieve our guy coming through

1088
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:07,959
Speaker 1: with this The Wheel of Fandom from the Athletic NBA

1089
00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:12,839
Speaker 1: Daily Podcast, the Weekend edition with Schlect and Spirits. So, yeah,

00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 1: what do you think, when's the time you went all

1091
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:15,000
Speaker 1: in totally worked out?

1092
00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 2: I'll growing my hair long.

1093
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 3: It took forever, man, I didn't think I was gonna

1094
00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:21,640
Speaker 3: take three years to finally get a ponytail. But my

1095
00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:24,080
Speaker 3: hair is so curly that like the first year was

1096
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:26,279
Speaker 3: all about just getting the puff, the second year was

1097
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:28,440
Speaker 3: getting the gravity, and the third year was finally getting

1098
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:31,239
Speaker 3: it long. But in the end I had a ponytail.

1099
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:37,600
Speaker 3: I did it, man, Probably it'll never happen again.

1100
00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:39,560
Speaker 2: You don't think so. It takes too long?

1101
00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 1: Really, I could see you sort of like older Trey

1102
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 1: kerbi old man.

1103
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, I gotta have an old ponytail because you're like,

1104
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:51,799
Speaker 3: who hairs. Yeah, that's a great point. But basically I

1105
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:55,719
Speaker 3: decided to cut my hair when we got here, when

1106
00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:58,279
Speaker 3: we finally started building the Classics Factory, I still had

1107
00:52:58,280 --> 00:52:59,840
Speaker 3: long hair at the point.

1108
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 2: And at that point and like.

1109
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,000
Speaker 3: JD was putting in these new beautiful cameras and I

1110
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 3: was like, oh my goodness, my hair is flowing like

1111
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 3: crazy here. This is gonna be a lot of upkeeper.

1112
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,399
Speaker 3: That's a lot easier during the pandemic. I just throw

1113
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,560
Speaker 3: a hat on, like a bandana or something, but just

1114
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,399
Speaker 3: too much maintenance to make it look good.

1115
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 2: That's when you went all in on four K. Yeah.

1116
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 2: I was all in and then I was all out.

1117
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, ye three years a long time.

1118
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 2: It's too long. Yeah, you got to have it right now,

1119
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:31,960
Speaker 2: you're growing your hair out. I wish I don't have

1120
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 2: the guts to do it for three years. It would

1121
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 2: take super long. Like during COVID the beard got longer,

1122
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:40,319
Speaker 2: but that was like several months, and even that wasn't

1123
00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:44,360
Speaker 2: long enough, like I needed longer. But I had to

1124
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 2: make a decision, right, It went away. Yeah, so the

1125
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:49,799
Speaker 2: hair ever get long? Yeah?

1126
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:51,960
Speaker 1: Maybe I from an old man. I can't picture you

1127
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:52,880
Speaker 1: super long hair.

1128
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:55,920
Speaker 2: I think I can do it. Okay, if I'm old?

1129
00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:57,799
Speaker 1: What do you have for this though? You went all

1130
00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:58,920
Speaker 1: in and it totally worked out for you.

1131
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:02,400
Speaker 2: I went all in on buying Taco Bell Breakfast. You

1132
00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 2: did it. Oh yeah, oh yeah, it's happened. Listen, I'm

00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:13,880
Speaker 2: make I'll make a video about it. I'm not gonna

00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:17,160
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna show anyone. And I went all in

1136
00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:20,960
Speaker 2: on the toppings. Surprisingly, they've got eggs. Who knew Taco

1137
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:25,240
Speaker 2: Bell has eggs? I know you love eggs, skeets. Taco

1138

00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:16,480
Speaker 1: a video for substack or both?

1151
00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 2: Great, it's a really good question. I thought I was

1152
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:22,279
Speaker 2: going to go a video. It just felt natural. But no,

1153
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:26,120
Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe both, maybe both. I'm excited. I'm

Speaker 2: excited for this post. Man, I am too, I honestly have.

1155
00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:33,239
Speaker 1: Did you have an answer for this something you went

1156
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,880
Speaker 1: all in and it totally worked out? Putting on spot here?

1157
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:42,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I mean I guess podcasting we were pretty early.

1158
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,440
Speaker 2: That was sort of my answer to. Yeah, definitely.

1159
00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:49,919
Speaker 1: When I took the job at Yahoo Sports writing, Yeah,

1160
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:52,799
Speaker 1: and that really then got this whole thing going for me,

1161
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:54,879
Speaker 1: at least because then it became a real job.

1162
00:55:56,280 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 4: The Internet turns out kind of worked out for us.

1163
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:03,480
Speaker 1: Yes, the Internet at a time was the greatest place

1164
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:04,319
Speaker 1: in the world to us.

1165
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 4: It had its movement.

1166
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:13,040
Speaker 3: It really did back when people were eating tapes these days.

1167
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:17,080
Speaker 2: Nope, Nope, truly next one, Yeah, Hello, no, dunk Ruse,

1168
00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:19,960
Speaker 2: I work out of middle school as a substitute teacher. Today,

1169
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,640
Speaker 2: while substituting in a gym class, I found a Spalding

1170
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:30,319
Speaker 2: basketball that had David Stern's name on it. How to

1171
00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:36,200
Speaker 2: react to this very cool question, When is the time

1172
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 2: that you unexpectedly found some piece of basketball history? Wow,

1173
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 2: it's history.

1174
00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 1: David Stern was last the commissioner of the NBA in

1175
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:47,800
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, right, yeah.

1176
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 2: Eight fourteen year that's when Silver took over. Had to

1177
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:56,080
Speaker 2: deal with Donald Donald Sterling immediately. Essentially, so twelve years ago,

1178
00:56:56,840 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 2: the late David Stern, Yes it's twelve years ago, was

1179
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,880
Speaker 2: already a throwback. I guess it's already. Yeah, I know

1180
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 2: it's true. Anyway, Frank from Tuxedo in New York essentially

1181
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:10,239
Speaker 2: asking when's the time you unexpectedly found some piece of

1182
00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:13,680
Speaker 2: basketball history like he did when he saw that David sternball.

1183
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 1: This is a tough question, Frank from Tuxedo, New York. Yeah,

1184
00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:19,919
Speaker 1: Frank from Tuxedo, New York, this is tough.

1185
00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:22,439
Speaker 3: I have a great answer, and I completely blew it.

1186
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:25,960
Speaker 3: But back in twenty fifteen, Matt Bonner was on the Spurs.

1187
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:29,960
Speaker 3: He formed a fake band with his teammates Aaron Baynes,

1188
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 3: Patty Mills, and Kawhi Leonard. They called themselves Spuran Spuran

1189
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:36,640
Speaker 3: and they recorded this video that was basically a Tim

1190
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:41,680
Speaker 3: and Eric sketch, Yeah spurs instead of sports, very funny video.

1191
00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 3: In it, Kawhi Leonard is wearing a rushed Tide shirt

1192
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:46,040
Speaker 3: playing the drums.

1193
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 2: You see the shirt here on YouTube. I have that shirt.

1194
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 3: I had that literal Kawhi Leonard's shirt because Luke Bonner

1195
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:56,440
Speaker 3: sent it to me. He's like, do you want this?

1196
00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:57,960
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, of course I want this. Oh

1197
00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 3: my god, I forgot to get it out this monk.

1198
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:03,760
Speaker 2: So the same shirt that Kawhi wore, Luke had one.

1199
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:06,840
Speaker 3: That he's actually wearing in this very photo. I haven't

1200
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:10,600
Speaker 3: in the archives in the basement. I've I've thought about

1201
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:12,640
Speaker 3: wearing it, like as a shirt because I'm like, like, I

1202
00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:13,480
Speaker 3: like a tied ice shirt.

1203
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 2: That's a cool looking one, and it is gigantic.

1204
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:17,840
Speaker 3: Man, it is so big, and I'm like, I don't

1205
00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:20,080
Speaker 3: feel like Kawhi Leonard is that much bigger than me

1206
00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 3: when I'm watching him out there. Heightwise, we're probably about

1207
00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 3: the same, but his shoulders are a lot broader. He

1208
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,680
Speaker 3: fills this thing out and I'm swimming in it. This

1209
00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:31,840
Speaker 3: could be a sleep shirt for me. I can go

1210
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:36,880
Speaker 3: Winnie the Pooh mode.

1211
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, kawhi, I gotta pull it out. Yeah, I saw.

1212
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:42,600
Speaker 3: I saw the question again this morning. I was like, nice,

1213
00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:45,040
Speaker 3: I'll do this as soon as I'm done answering the questions.

1214
00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:47,040
Speaker 3: And I didn't.

1215
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:48,240
Speaker 2: That's good. I didn't do it.

1216
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:51,480
Speaker 1: Oh, you answered it. I struggled with this, I guess

1217
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:54,880
Speaker 1: in thinking it out. Like you've said before, Trey, we're

1218
00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:56,960
Speaker 1: one day going to be in the Basketball Hall of

1219
00:58:56,960 --> 00:59:01,680
Speaker 1: Fame from having podcasted for eighty years. But you know

1220
00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 1: whether that's true or not. Will Weggies make the Hall

1221
00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:08,840
Speaker 1: of Fame? Will there be a Weggie exhibit, a Weggie

1222
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:11,200
Speaker 1: part in the Basketball Hall of Fame? And if so,

1223
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:14,680
Speaker 1: and if there is, well the underwear that check ripped

1224
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:17,600
Speaker 1: off my body when he gave me a Weggie be

1225
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,280
Speaker 1: framed and in the Hall of Fame. So maybe that is,

1226
00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:23,479
Speaker 1: unexpectedly one day a piece of basketball history.

1227
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:24,480
Speaker 2: You're trying to talk it in.

1228
00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:26,000
Speaker 1: I'm trying to talk it into existence.

1229
00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:31,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe Weggie arm Yeah, exactly. Interesting, just

1230
00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 2: a small little part, just a small part. Yeah, I

1231
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 2: think do it?

1232
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 1: I don't think it's at least a pop up exhibit.

1233
00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:41,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, in the weekend. That's why they should do it.

1234
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,960
Speaker 3: We can get the we can get Rick and Todd

1235
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,479
Speaker 3: back to fly the ball into the rim.

1236
00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:49,160
Speaker 2: I love that was pretty cool and that came up

1237
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:50,080
Speaker 2: with that very cool.

1238
00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, okay, there's a lot of things we could do.

1239
00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:53,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay.

1240
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:56,320
Speaker 3: If you can stick your own weggie like on a shot,

1241
00:59:57,600 --> 00:59:59,760
Speaker 3: this is really good. Nobody can do it on purpose.

1242
01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 2: It's very tough.

1243
01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:04,200
Speaker 1: You need the right type of basketball. If you get

1244
01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:05,760
Speaker 1: one of those grippy balls that you sort of play

1245
01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:09,440
Speaker 1: with outside, that helps your chances, but still not easy

1246
01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:10,560
Speaker 1: to do.

1247
01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:13,320
Speaker 2: Do you have an answer for this? Yeah, I too, Electrade.

1248
01:00:13,320 --> 01:00:17,120
Speaker 2: Don't have my hands on this piece of memorabilia today,

1249
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 2: although it's not even in my house. It's in my

1250
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:23,400
Speaker 2: wife's family's house because they used to be season seed

1251
01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:28,200
Speaker 2: holders in New Jersey. In two thousand and two when

1252
01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:31,080
Speaker 2: they went to the finals against the Lakers and they

1253
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:34,640
Speaker 2: got swept. There was a game Danielle said it was

1254
01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:36,680
Speaker 2: game fo him looking here at my notes, what game

1255
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 2: was it? In Game four? The New Jersey nets. So

1256
01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:45,800
Speaker 2: they got swept, but the band corn was multiple rows

1257
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:49,200
Speaker 2: in front of her the band Corn okay and as

1258
01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:54,920
Speaker 2: Corn left Danielle's brother Yoni, also known as the Whitler.

1259
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,600
Speaker 2: It's his occupation as a musician. I like saying he's

1260
01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:01,920
Speaker 2: a musician. He's also a DJ, a disc jockey. Is

1261
01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:04,919
Speaker 2: just it's a little offensive. I mean he does that, but.

1262
01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:08,760
Speaker 3: Well, but he's a musician, Okay, okay, okay, just like

1263
01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:10,800
Speaker 3: DJ Mustard Man, that's why he goes by Mustard Now,

1264
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:12,800
Speaker 3: he's more than just a DJ. It's like guys in

1265
01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 3: the Dunk Contest. They don't want to be known as

1266
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:14,959
Speaker 3: just the DJ.

1267
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:18,240
Speaker 2: So Corn walks by ANDONI says, hey, can you sign

1268
01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:22,120
Speaker 2: this Keith fan horn jersey and they say that's weird,

1269
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:26,360
Speaker 2: But okay, they signed a Keith Fan Rangers. That's weird.

1270
01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:29,480
Speaker 2: That's cool. It's framed but I don't have it. But

1271
01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:35,040
Speaker 2: either way, it's cool. Keith Fan Horngers, Keith Van Corn. Yeah,

1272
01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:35,760
Speaker 2: for sure.

1273
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:39,600
Speaker 1: Every member that's good. Course, just the Jonathan Davis or

1274
01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 1: just the main the main.

1275
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 2: Cob, the number one colonel.

1276
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, answer man.

1277
01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:47,200
Speaker 2: I like that.

1278
01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:48,760
Speaker 1: I'd like to see that. Can you take a photo that?

1279
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 2: Can you do some tuck on that? Yeah, but I

1280
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,160
Speaker 2: just put it up on Substack Final one.

1281
01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:59,920
Speaker 1: And this is a fun question from Giuseppe and Niagara Falls, Ontario.

1282
01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:04,240
Speaker 1: Are the false frozen over never never too much power?

1283
01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:04,920
Speaker 2: They are?

1284
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:10,160
Speaker 1: What players in the NBA have names that indicate they

1285
01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:13,320
Speaker 1: would be better than they actually are? Simplified? What non

1286
01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,200
Speaker 1: star players have star like names?

1287
01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:16,720
Speaker 2: For fun?

1288
01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:19,920
Speaker 1: What is the inverse? So star players with non star names?

1289
01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:23,200
Speaker 1: And this is Joseppi's suggestions here for his first part.

1290
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:29,720
Speaker 1: I'd say Sindarius Thornwell, Stromile Swift and Johnny Jusang sound

1291
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:33,320
Speaker 1: like guys that would be bona fide stars. Meanwhile, George Gervin,

1292
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:36,920
Speaker 1: Bob Pettitt, and Chris Paul sound like your local accountant.

1293
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:42,480
Speaker 1: Keep up the great work on substack, thank Youseppe. Everybody

1294
01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:44,760
Speaker 1: should go and subscribe. Link is in the show notes,

1295
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:48,920
Speaker 1: so you can go either side here, like, yeah, which

1296
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:51,080
Speaker 1: guy is a non star player but has a star

1297
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:53,240
Speaker 1: like name. Let's start with that side of things and

1298
01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:54,600
Speaker 1: we can do the opposite side if you want.

1299
01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:57,080
Speaker 2: I thought Sindarius Thornwell it's a great one. I thought

1300
01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:00,680
Speaker 2: it was very similar to Daiquon Plowden. Love that name.

1301
01:03:00,760 --> 01:03:03,480
Speaker 2: It's a great name. It's a good name, not a star.

1302
01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:08,200
Speaker 2: A couple more will throw him in there, Heywood high Smith.

1303
01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:11,600
Speaker 2: Maybe it's sort of like classic. It feels classic. I

1304
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:14,240
Speaker 2: don't know if it's because it's Spencer Haywood NBA Hall

1305
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,520
Speaker 2: of Fame, but I think it's a good sound and name.

1306
01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:21,880
Speaker 2: It's Haywood high Smith. And I threw a Jeni Broom

1307
01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:24,320
Speaker 2: in there, Jenni, it's hard to say this first and

1308
01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:32,120
Speaker 2: honestly just drafted. Oh yeah, yeah, no undersized guy for

1309
01:03:32,160 --> 01:03:35,400
Speaker 2: the seventy six ers, Jenni Broom. It's just a cool name.

1310
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:37,919
Speaker 1: Non star players with star like names.

1311
01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 3: Who do you have in your list of like a

1312
01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:41,400
Speaker 3: thousand names literations?

1313
01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:43,560
Speaker 2: Guaranteed? I think you're gonna be good.

1314
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 3: Cam Christie, Yeah, I feel like he's better than Max Christie,

1315
01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 3: but he's not Shade and sharp.

1316
01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:50,800
Speaker 1: Yeah that's a good name, lovely he is a star

1317
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:51,280
Speaker 1: one day.

1318
01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:54,480
Speaker 2: Yeah he could be. I think he's got more turnovers

1319
01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:55,680
Speaker 2: than I saw that too.

1320
01:03:55,840 --> 01:04:00,680
Speaker 3: Not great and I love the Double D's Dante, DiVincenzo Daniels,

1321
01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:04,880
Speaker 3: DeMar DeRozan great names might be a Hall of Fame Yeah, yeah,

1322
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:07,200
Speaker 3: for sure he qualifies. But I'm just saying those are

1323
01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:08,760
Speaker 3: great names. And then one to me that I think

1324
01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:11,320
Speaker 3: is really interesting, especially since his name has come up

1325
01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:13,439
Speaker 3: a ton on this podcast, is Ion Williams. And there's

1326
01:04:13,440 --> 01:04:16,880
Speaker 3: also a guy named Zaier Williams. Those are pretty similar names.

1327
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:19,000
Speaker 3: And one was the number one draft pick and one

1328
01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:21,120
Speaker 3: was I think he was a top ten pick. But he's,

1329
01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:23,960
Speaker 3: you know, not really established himself all that much. And

1330
01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:26,360
Speaker 3: he was scrapping hard last night with that John b. Yeah,

1331
01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:28,880
Speaker 3: he's not okay, actually in Brooklyn and kind of at

1332
01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:32,200
Speaker 3: least proved that he can stick around in the NBA.

1333
01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:36,720
Speaker 3: But their names are so similar, but Zaire ain't quite Zion.

1334
01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:39,560
Speaker 1: No, those are good. I got a couple others. I

1335
01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:43,160
Speaker 1: love the name Johnny Furfey, great name, like a star player.

1336
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 1: Johnny Furfy's in watching him, He's gonna get some buckets.

1337
01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:49,240
Speaker 1: I think bub Carrington is a cool ass name. Sounds

1338
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 1: like he has his own shoe deal. It's and my favorite.

1339
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 1: I thought maybe one of you guys would say it

1340
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:56,960
Speaker 1: sounds like a superstar to me. Nae Kwon, Tomlin, m oh,

1341
01:04:57,080 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 1: that guy sounds like the star player in the high

1342
01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:03,360
Speaker 1: school over. Oh no, we gotta go against Nakon Tomlin

1343
01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:05,720
Speaker 1: that guy's going pro I heard, so I like that.

1344
01:05:06,160 --> 01:05:09,040
Speaker 1: What about the opposite some boring ask names that maybe

1345
01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:10,240
Speaker 1: are star players.

1346
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:12,920
Speaker 2: Norm Powell it's pretty good.

1347
01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:17,120
Speaker 3: And Andrew nemhard.

1348
01:05:17,920 --> 01:05:23,200
Speaker 2: As well. Okay, it's the hard part really. Uh No,

1349
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:25,320
Speaker 2: I didn't write any of these down, any of the

1350
01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:27,120
Speaker 2: boring game. There's a lot of boring names out there.

1351
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:32,360
Speaker 1: Paul George Paul. Yeah, well it's like Chris Paul obviously. Yeah,

1352
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:33,680
Speaker 1: Chris Paul is so basic.

1353
01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:38,400
Speaker 2: Paul George stopped podcasting. It helps podcast p podcast p

1354
01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:41,440

Speaker 2: What year is it? What year is it?

1368
01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:20,000
Speaker 1: Thirty two points led the Sixers to the big victory

1369
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:23,680
Speaker 1: over the Bucks podcast p I can't even call him

1370
01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:25,840
Speaker 1: that anymore. Nope, but he shot eleven to twenty one

1371
01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:30,120
Speaker 1: hit a franchise record, tying nine to three pointers on

1372
01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:33,640
Speaker 1: fifteen attempts from deep. Guy was on fire five boards,

1373
01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:37,320

Speaker 1: whoa boy?

1375
01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:40,440
Speaker 2: It's only played in twenty six games this year because

1376
01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:44,160
Speaker 2: he played it a little slow played it. Ye, slow

1377
01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:47,600
Speaker 2: played it a bit like Joel Embiid, but excelling here.

1378
01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:50,480
Speaker 2: Had other guys carry it for him, with MAXI and

Speaker 2: edgecumb looking great. M h looking great?

1380
01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:57,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Sixers are five and one when Paul

1381
01:06:57,360 --> 01:07:00,200
Speaker 3: George scores twenty or more. And you're right, he was

1382
01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:03,120
Speaker 3: on fire. Yeah last night he did hit the back

1383
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,040
Speaker 3: rim a couple of times on his makes, but.

1384
01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:07,200
Speaker 2: These were some crispy swishes.

1385
01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:10,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, nine three point a row joke. So he's looking good.

1386
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:12,360
Speaker 1: I'm not looking good when it comes to pick him

1387
01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:14,960
Speaker 1: right now. I could not find a w after a

1388
01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:15,480
Speaker 1: hot start.

1389
01:07:15,520 --> 01:07:16,160
Speaker 2: I'm eight and ten.

1390
01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:19,400
Speaker 1: You guys are now tied at ten and eight. I

1391
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:21,440
Speaker 1: basically need a win tonight. I mean we're getting to

1392
01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:24,920
Speaker 1: the point here to obviously extend this and to hopefully

1393
01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:26,840
Speaker 1: catch one of you guys to not be last place.

1394
01:07:26,840 --> 01:07:31,680
Speaker 2: So where are we going? And you have isolated yourself tonight?

1395
01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:35,120
Speaker 2: You're picking the Houston Rockets at home to the San

1396
01:07:35,120 --> 01:07:37,120
Speaker 2: Antonio Spurs. Rockets are favored by three and a half,

1397
01:07:37,160 --> 01:07:38,440
Speaker 2: so they got a win by four or more. We

1398
01:07:38,640 --> 01:07:41,360
Speaker 2: Spurs got a few points to play with. But this

1399
01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:44,880
Speaker 2: is a rematch of eight days ago. The Rockets won

1400
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:48,960
Speaker 2: by five. Do it again, boys? You think they can?

1401
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:52,720
Speaker 2: I questioned it because Wemby shot five of twenty one

1402
01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:56,880
Speaker 2: and that was the game. Afterwards, Kevin Durant said he's

1403
01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:58,760
Speaker 2: still working on a jump shot. We made him shoot

1404
01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:02,400
Speaker 2: over us. When we get a little more physical tonight

1405
01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:04,960
Speaker 2: and have a better turnaround game. It is in Houston,

1406
01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:07,760
Speaker 2: so you've got that going for you. But you've got

1407
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:10,160
Speaker 2: the Rockets, while Trey and I have the Spurs to

1408
01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:11,400
Speaker 2: cover that three and a half.

1409
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,200
Speaker 1: And that came into play last night. Some of us,

1410
01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:16,000
Speaker 1: you and me, we had the Pistons to win, but

1411
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:18,040
Speaker 1: they had to win by seven. They beat the Nuggets,

1412
01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:19,200
Speaker 1: but they did not cover.

1413
01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:20,439
Speaker 2: The line was too big.

1414
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:23,200
Speaker 1: The line was too big, and big comeback from Denver

1415
01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:26,280
Speaker 1: and U Jamal Murray unfortunately was missing free throws left

1416
01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:28,280
Speaker 1: and right last night. Hey yeah, I got fouled on

1417
01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:31,080
Speaker 1: a three pointer twice the last five seconds and missed

1418
01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:32,400
Speaker 1: one of the clutch free.

1419
01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:34,240
Speaker 2: Throws in both of them. That was pretty crazy. I

1420
01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 2: thought we were good though. I mean the.

1421
01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:39,720
Speaker 3: Pistons got up by ten to twelve points like three

1422
01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:42,040
Speaker 3: different times hind in this game, and then Tim Hardaway

1423
01:08:42,080 --> 01:08:45,080
Speaker 3: would hit a shot from half court, Bruce Brown would

1424
01:08:45,120 --> 01:08:47,320
Speaker 3: drawn and one, and Spencer Jones would throw up his

1425
01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:49,640
Speaker 3: parentheses jump shot and it was just going in.

1426
01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:51,240
Speaker 2: It was unbelievable by the.

1427
01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:53,360
Speaker 3: Way they kept coming back and that one and then

1428
01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:54,400
Speaker 3: you know Murray at the end.

1429
01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:55,240
Speaker 2: That was That was crazy.

1430
01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:56,720
Speaker 3: But this is pretty much it, I guess right, like

1431
01:08:56,840 --> 01:08:58,800
Speaker 3: y got three games left and it just goes the

1432
01:08:58,840 --> 01:08:59,280
Speaker 3: other way.

1433
01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:00,599
Speaker 2: It's basically yep.

1434
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:03,519
Speaker 1: So I need the Rockets tonight to win by four

1435
01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:06,439
Speaker 1: or more. Come on, Houston, let's make things interesting.
