Yeah, oh geez, we don't need that. No, no, 39 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 3: we don't need this graffic. 40 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 5: We have it and might as well use it. Okay. 41 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 3: Yesterday the Charlotte Hornets traded backup center Nick Richards and 42 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 3: a second round draft pick to the Phoenix Suns for 43 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 3: forward Joshua Kog and three future second round picks. So 44 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 3: the Sons do something here tasked and they get a 45 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 3: big because the one starting center that they had he 46 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 3: got the flu. Then they moved him to the bench, 47 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 3: and then they said, get the hell out of here. 48 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 3: I'm talking about use of nurkic. So they go, I'm 49 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 3: and plumb dog. They're going with a rookie and maybe 50 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 3: Nick Richards suddenly is their starting center, but they went 51 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 3: and got him for a Kogi in these second round picks. 52 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a tiny trade, but they needed something. They 53 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 5: needed a big. It's pretty simple job that Nick Richards 54 00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 5: will have with Phoenix. It's a DRD. Just dunk, rebound, defend. 55 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 5: My man, this team does not dunk. They take the 56 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 5: fewest shots around the rim, and it would help if 57 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 5: somebody goes around there and gives them a little bit 58 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 5: of space, because, yeah, use of Nurkic doesn't knuck all 59 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 5: that much. Nick Richards double the amount of duncks that 60 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 5: Nurkic has had this season. And Mason Plumbley is very 61 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 5: similar to what Nick Richards will do. But Nick Richard's 62 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 5: just far younger, and that's the important thing here. And 63 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 5: then the other side, they do need help on the 64 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 5: defensive end rebounding the ball. We've seen two games in 65 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 5: a row here where they've been pounded on second chance points. 66 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 5: We saw in nik On Kongo with the Atlanta Hawks 67 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 5: have ten offensive rebounds, and then Charlotte Hornets Nick Richards 68 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 5: old Charlotte Hornets, you know them scoring twenty six second 69 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 5: chance points. Very important stuff. He's gonna also have to 70 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 5: defend one through five a lot of the time. That's 71 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 5: the problem with the Phoenix Suns is their defense. Just overall, 72 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 5: this guy's gonna have to be all over the place. 73 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 5: Him and Mason Plumpley, don't call me miles, they're gonna 74 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 5: have the same job. I think they were going to 75 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 5: split the minutes a center. I don't know if he's 76 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 5: of Nart it's going to be part of this rotation again. 77 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 5: It sure does try to trade him. 78 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 3: Just whether or not they can get anything in return 79 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 3: for him, because he's got another what nineteen million I 80 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 3: think on his deal next season, yeah, eighteen and the 81 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 3: nineteen next year. 82 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 5: January fifteenth, Rakoji became eligible to be traded, right, he 83 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 5: got traded. That's who Charlotte Hornets watted and they got 84 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 5: some They got some picks at the very least. I 85 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 5: mean it's a lot of picks. 86 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,679 Speaker 3: Yeah. So Richards has been productive TK in his starts 87 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 3: for Charlotte, he averaged eleven and ten. And this guy 88 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 3: shoots a very high percentage. I mean it's all around 89 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 3: the rim. He's a stretching the floor. Apparently he's had 90 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 3: Over the last four seasons, Nick Richard has shot sixty 91 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 3: five percent from the field, which is fifth best in 92 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 3: the NBA during that span, because again, it's just all 93 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 3: around there. Do you think he gets the start immediately 94 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 3: for the Phoenix Suns and you can see him at 95 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 3: least contributing and helping the Sun's team that we talked about, 96 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 3: has very little identity and could use at least a 97 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 3: big to do the dirty work. 98 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 6: He'll probably start just because he's bigger than OsO Igadaro 99 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 6: and more athletic than Mason Plumbley, a one time Dunk 100 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 6: Contest participant. Easy to forget that one, but I think 101 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 6: they shipped Mason Plumbley out of Charlotte because of Nick 102 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 6: Richards once upon a time, right like he was the 103 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 6: backup became the backup for Plumbley behind Mark Williams. 104 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 5: Will he help? 105 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 7: No? 106 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 6: I mean, this is Nick Richards. He's a backup center 107 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 6: who's got to be starting for the Suns. But they 108 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 6: needed something, and they needed to do something to make 109 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 6: it seem like they're actually trying this season. They gave 110 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 6: up basically two second round picks in this one, since 111 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 6: the Hornets sent one back to the Suns as well. 112 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 6: Maybe that Son's one turns into something eventually. Right, it's 113 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 6: in twenty thirty one, they'll probably be pretty bad by 114 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 6: then since they have no picks. I don't know if 115 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 6: it's the smartest move, honestly, to trade two second round 116 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 6: picks for a guy who's a backup center when you 117 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 6: have basically nothing to trade. But the Sons had to 118 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 6: do something. They've had a terrible season and they're getting 119 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 6: nothing from their center rotation, so this might be better. 120 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, I wonder if this is a sign that they're 121 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 5: going to be unable to convince Bradley Beal to waive 122 00:05:57,960 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 5: that no trade clause and this is the only thing 123 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 5: that they can. So they say, we'll give up picks 124 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 5: for him. This might be it. 125 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 3: Or if they can convince a team to take Nurkic 126 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 3: to get another second round pick back in that potential deal. Again, 127 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 3: I don't know. 128 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 6: Don't you think they would have to add picks to 129 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 6: trade Nurkic? Yeah, maybe it's been that bad and he's 130 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 6: got another year left on his deal. 131 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the thing. 132 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 3: So they got a physical seven footer here in Nick Richards. 133 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 3: This step blew my mind. You were bringing up the 134 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 3: second chance points like recently that they gave up to 135 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 3: the Hawks and to the Hornets that involved Nick Richards. 136 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 3: When Nurkic has been off the floor, the Son's opponents 137 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 3: have rebounded almost thirty two percent of their misses, almost 138 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 3: one in three shots the opponent is grabbing when nurk 139 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 3: is not out there. That's an issue, So hopefully record 140 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 3: Nick Richards. I always like get tongue tied with his name. 141 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 3: I don't know what it is, but Cody Hunt, he 142 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 3: tweeted last night Sons just went from the thirtieth best 143 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 3: center rotation in the NBA to the twenty eighth. Drade 144 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 3: me laugh and it might be true, and he put 145 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 3: a sarcastic let's go on that. So before you got 146 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 3: in here, tas uh tk w are like, oh, that's funny, 147 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 3: twenty eighth. Maybe he's right though, like who has a 148 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 3: worst center rotation in the NBA? We threw out the 149 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 3: Pelicans maybe, like Missy's been great as a rock, not 150 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 3: a lot there. 151 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 5: You do that to Daniel Tice, No, don't. 152 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 3: Okay, the Jazz Kessler's had a bit of a bounce back, 153 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 3: but it's you Banks, and it's pretty bleak. The Sixers 154 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 3: without embat I joked this year. Yea. Anyway, it's the 155 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 3: point is that he's probably right Cody with that tweet. 156 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 5: It's not fun, but it's not much. I had that. Yeah, 157 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 5: their defensive rebounding is middle of the pack. They just 158 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 5: need a guy to grab boards. Yeah, and their offensive 159 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 5: rebounding very bad. Again, don't go out in the mid range. 160 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 5: Your job is to roll set picks, dunk it, dude. Literally, 161 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 5: they just don't. They won't won't ask him to shoot 162 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 5: the ball. It's pretty freaking simple. That's what Nick Richards 163 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 5: has to do for this Phoenix Sun team because they 164 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 5: lack an identity and they just lack this simple stuff. 165 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 5: They just need a body, that's for sure. He's born 166 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 5: in Jamaica. I was just in Jamaica for Christmas holiday. 167 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 5: No one was talking about Nick Richards. I was surprised 168 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 5: by that. Why wasn't Why weren't people talking about this guy? 169 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 3: Nobody, unless you are a Hornets fan, or you play 170 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 3: fantasy basketball, or you an absolute NBA sico, you have 171 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 3: no idea who Nick Richards is. Yep, you don't, and 172 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 3: that's fine, nor should you. Really Maybe you will now 173 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 3: because he'll be maybe once more nationally televised games. And 174 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 3: if he comes in here and makes a difference, okay, 175 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 3: people start talking about him. I don't think it's gonna 176 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 3: be the bump that we quite saw with like Daniel 177 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 3: Gafford going to the MAVs. I don't think it's like 178 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 3: going to that level, But like we all said, it's 179 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 3: gonna help. Probably should can't get much worse there for 180 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 3: the Sun, can't get worse. 181 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm so so happy for Nick Richards. 182 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 3: Like this guy has been in Charlotte his entire NBA career, Like, 183 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 3: I'm pretty bad teams for the most part. So at 184 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 3: least he goes to a team in the Western Conference 185 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 3: that's struggling. Yes, but but you know, is better than 186 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 3: the Charlotte Hornets. 187 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 6: Is my point grade from fourteenth to eleven? 188 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 5: Yeah? 189 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. Any other thoughts here on the Sun's Hornet steal. 190 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 3: I mean, Joshah COG's a good defender. I don't think 191 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 3: he's going to be long term Charlote Hornets. It's all 192 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 3: about the picks, I assume in this movie. 193 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 6: It's all about the picks. They're doing a good job 194 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 6: of getting picks in. I think they're up two first 195 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 6: rounders and eight second rounders, including last year's trade deadline 196 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 6: when PJ. Washington went out Gordon Hayward went to the Thunder. 197 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 6: They're getting picks in. They're completely in tear down mode. 198 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 6: It makes you think, are they gonna move LaMelo eventually? 199 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 6: Like they're just letting them shoot all the time. Maybe 200 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 6: a pump and dump scheme now that they signed them 201 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 6: to the big extension, and maybe they want to reorient 202 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 6: themselves around Cooper Flag. But I mean they traded their 203 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 6: backup center and got some picks. 204 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 5: Good right, Yeah, yeah, basic Paul. He's just he's older 205 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 5: than I felt he was, maybe forever. He has been 206 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 5: around for a long time. He just got a bit 207 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 5: of a baby face. 208 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, he does so he can't grow a beard. 209 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 5: So surprising to me that he'll be thirty five pretty soon. 210 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 5: So that is old. Wow. 211 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 3: Okay, I wouldn't even tell you that. 212 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 5: No, No, it doesn't feel that way. And he was 213 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 5: in a dunk contest once, but I guess that was 214 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 5: freaking eons ago. I was a long time. 215 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 3: Where was that Brooklyn with Oladipo when he came out 216 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 3: dressing a tucks that I remember that. 217 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 6: That's like he's saying a song. 218 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, like a Sinatra or something. 219 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 5: Did we were saying New York, New York. I was gonna 220 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 5: sound a classic man, But that wasn't him. 221 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 6: That was. 222 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 3: Weird times with Dunk Contest and back to the Suns, 223 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 3: like my final point on them, like we said, like 224 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 3: can you get anything in return for Nurkic? Good point 225 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 3: from trade? Do you have to attach more capital to 226 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 3: get off that deal? We'll see uh. And then the 227 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 3: other thing is like can you trade Grayson Allen, and 228 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 3: you do have a future twenty thirty one first round pick. 229 00:10:58,200 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 3: I mean, that's really all you have left, is my point. 230 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 3: Unless you get Bradley Beale to wave the no trade class, 231 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 3: then maybe you got something. But even then, or trade 232 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 3: their good guess, or trade durandam. 233 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 6: Yes, yes, yes, that doesn't seem like that's what Matt 234 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 6: Ishbiel wants to know. 235 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: But should they? 236 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 5: Yes? 237 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 6: Obviously. 238 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 3: All right, we'll leave it there for now. Let's move 239 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 3: to some games, crazy, entertaining, oddly games and weird storylines 240 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 3: and plays coming out of a lot of action from 241 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 3: last night. Let's start with one that we watched on 242 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 3: playback right to the end. It went to overtime. Jayalen 243 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 3: Brunson scored thirty eight Josh Hart triple double, Nicks beat 244 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:36,199 Speaker 3: the seventy six ers, no Jowell embiidt. Nicks dodged a 245 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 3: bit of a bullet here, I will say, and Maxy, 246 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 3: despite sort of having a rough start, turned it on 247 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 3: and it was really the only reason the Sixers had 248 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 3: a chance to even win this game. You had that 249 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 3: great steal on Brunson poked it from behind to then 250 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 3: obviously get the goaltend to get it in overtime they 251 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,319 Speaker 3: came up short. But any takeaways from Nick beating the 252 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 3: Philadelphia twenty six ers. 253 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 5: Listen, in the Philadelphia seventy six ers, they play hard. 254 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 5: They they really do. The Knicks could have blown out 255 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 5: the Philadelphia seventy six ers with the way they were 256 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 5: shooting the ball. They were hitting fifty three percent of 257 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,719 Speaker 5: their shots, forty three percent of their threes, hit three 258 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 5: more threes than Philly. All the Knicks who shot threes 259 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 5: hit multiple threes, and the seventy six ers, as he said, 260 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 5: no Joel Embiid in this one still went to ot. 261 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 5: But Nick Nurse has these guys working. When we're talking 262 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 5: about Nick Nurse and him potentially being on a hot 263 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 5: seat for the Philadelphia seventy six ers, what are you 264 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 5: going to get in a replacement a coach that comes 265 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 5: in and says, hey, Joel Embiid, can you play? Really 266 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 5: just to get somebody to convince Joel and Bid to play, 267 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 5: because he's got these guys working back to back nights. 268 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 5: They've played hard against Oka. See yes, they lost and 269 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 5: in this one a good effort. They've got guys up 270 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 5: and down the roster. Jeff Dowton banked home of three. 271 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 5: The night before, Justin Edwards banked home of three. They 272 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 5: just have these names that are going deep to help 273 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 5: them out. Because Brentson was freagin awesome. I thought he 274 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 5: set the tone for his team. Even though first possession, 275 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 5: Ubray tried to push on a steal after Mickel Bridges 276 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 5: uh missed the shot. Uber pushed bruns and beautiful steel 277 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 5: to set this thing going, and he got a three 278 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 5: for Bridges. This team is just it's been really a 279 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 5: little bit. They're five lost five of seven coming into 280 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 5: this game, and so they just needed Jalen to be 281 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 5: their guy. 282 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 3: And he was the Jeff Dowton junior three that he 283 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 3: banked in at the end of the third quarter. I 284 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 3: think it was yeah heading into the fourth that tied 285 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 3: it up. He had the weirdest reaction to hitting a 286 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 3: Prayer three, like he almost seemed upset. We were watching 287 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 3: it on playback. He was like rattled by it. It 288 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 3: was very strange. 289 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 5: Well, George came over for me. I'm throwing my arm 290 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 5: around you. You just hit a basket. You're an NBA player, 291 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 5: you hit a basket. You're sad? What's up? 292 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 3: Very very strange, But yeah, Nick's dodge a bull here. 293 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 3: You know, they had that nine game win streak in December, 294 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 3: but you set a task. They were sort of struggling, 295 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 3: had lost the five to seven heading into this game, 296 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 3: and then meanwhile, the Sixers, you know, they won ten 297 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 3: to thirteen games starting in late November, but then since 298 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 3: then they've lost seven of nine, including four of their 299 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 3: five home games in twenty twenty five here, so they 300 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 3: remain in the eleventh spot. The Bulls are right ahead 301 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 3: of them still, which NOE can't catch them. But I 302 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 3: guess I was gonna see it a good win in 303 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 3: the end. The Knick sort of needed this w to 304 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 3: write the ship a little bit, but it wasn't the 305 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 3: most convincing. I saw a lot of Knicks fans not 306 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 3: all that pleased with, like how much it had to 307 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 3: take from Brunson and obviously another incredible, scrappy Josh Hart game, 308 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 3: stuff like that, just to get across the finish. 309 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 6: Line forty nine minutes for Josh Hart. This fifth triple 310 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 6: double of his career, or eleventh of his career, eleventh 311 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 6: of his career, fifth with the Knicks. They said he's 312 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 6: only three away from tying their all time record Clyde 313 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 6: Frazier had eight little tiny number in twenty twenty five, 314 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 6: but I guess they haven't had like a Yo Kitch 315 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 6: or a Westbrook to just kind of rack them up. 316 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 6: But seventeen rebounds I thought was huge from Josh Hart 317 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 6: playing basically as their rebounder. Without Karl Anthony Towns there. 318 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 6: Impressio's chew also picked up the slack. Yeah, his defense 319 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 6: was really good, especially in the fourth quarter, and over time. 320 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 6: He had six rebounds in this one, three blocks. He 321 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 6: had a steal as well, did have a late goaltend. 322 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 6: But when he was blocking all those shots, you'll like 323 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 6: all little that one a little bit. And Karl Anthony Towns. 324 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 6: He wore an Eagle shirt in the first half, apparently 325 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 6: sweated through it. He said he had to change into 326 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 6: a Knick shirt. He said, Hey, Twitter, sweat stains, ain't 327 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 6: it on ESPN had to pull another fit out. Anyways, 328 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 6: Go birds, Okay, do you buy? 329 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 3: Do you buy his reasoning here for switching because all 330 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 3: the people obviously wearing the Eagles there in Philadelphia, but 331 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 3: tons of Knicks fans in attendance too, a lot of 332 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 3: Knicks fans. Brunson was asked about it. He loved it. 333 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 3: He's a Philly guy. But he said it was because 334 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 3: it was he was sweating through it. 335 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, I mean, why would you say I'm so 336 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 6: sweaty that I swept through my shirt. It wasn't true. Yeah, 337 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 6: I agree, And it was bright green. I think it 338 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 6: would show the pit stains. 339 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 5: A very good point. It was also a thick shirt, 340 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 5: so it could be hot period. Yeah it was. 341 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 3: It's not possible. He meant sweat stains from his teammates, Oh, 342 00:15:58,920 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 3: like hugs. 343 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 6: Maybe he chucking it out there. 344 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 3: Maybe they're so. 345 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 6: Bad he was wearing an Eagle shirt that they're like 346 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 6: coming up and giving him these. 347 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 5: Nasty Oh yeah, I have to take it off. 348 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 6: Maybe, so it's possible. 349 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 5: Just a note on Josh Hart playing forty nine minutes. 350 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 5: Nicks have top two in terms of minutes played in 351 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 5: the NBA. Mckel Bridges number one, Josh Hart number two, 352 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 5: and on the broadcast they said, no NBA team has 353 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 5: had the top three in NBA minutes played in a 354 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 5: season ever, and they don't right now, could they? It's 355 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 5: not too far off. Ogn Andobi is basically just over 356 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 5: a minute beneath number three. Tyree s Naxy so it 357 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 5: could happen to the New York next up, and that's 358 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 5: why Tims was smiley. 359 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 6: Oh, yes, see, they are top three in total totals 360 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 6: played and then Brunson is number five. 361 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 5: Jeez, yeah, yeah, that's that's so they said, where we 362 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 5: are top three. I guess it might be total minutes 363 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 5: played rather than minutes per game that they're going by. 364 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 5: But I guess that's why Tibbs was smiling in the 365 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 5: first fifteen seconds. I've never seen a Tips smile in 366 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 5: a game, period, but he was smiling. He's like, yes, 367 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 5: I get to play all my guys a lot, and 368 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 5: that is a slight worry for this next team. Top heavy. 369 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 5: We're playing a lot of guys, but their bench is 370 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 5: coming through. As you said at Chua, I think cam 371 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 5: Paign has been awesome recently for this team, so they 372 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 5: do have guys producing. 373 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 3: All right, let's move on to Keaton Wallace, who some 374 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 3: of you might be saying. Keaton Wallace and his let's 375 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 3: call him the College Park Skyhawks beat the Bulls one, 376 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 3: ten ninety four. Unbelievable. These guys, they both just threw 377 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 3: on their College Parks Skyhawks hats. Amazing stuff. 378 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 5: The second time I've warned, I feel so good about that. 379 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 5: I wore it at a Skyhawk's game last week. I 380 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 5: get to worry. Look at let's. 381 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 3: Grade on you. So yeah. Keaton Wallace, obviously a call 382 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 3: up from the G League team, and dayk One Plowden, 383 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 3: in his first NBA game, scored nineteen points, again being 384 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 3: called up from the Skyhawks. He finished seven eight from 385 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,239 Speaker 3: the floor. He hit five threes. We just we saw 386 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 3: these two guys on Sunday here in Atlanta. We called 387 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 3: the game the Skyhawks versus the Motor City Crews. Both 388 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 3: these guys played, and Plowden had an incredible dunk task. 389 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 3: You talk to him at halftime going into the locker room, Oh, 390 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 3: tell me about that windmill. All smiles, and then they go, 391 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 3: they get the call up and they go and beat 392 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 3: the bulls. They were like the two best players in 393 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 3: this game. And I'm not exaggerating. Oh, Keaton Wallace was 394 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 3: the best player on the floor. 395 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 6: They were challenging him to shoot threes, but then he 396 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 6: started making all of his threes and the Bulls are like, no, 397 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 6: we're not changing our strategy here. We're just going to 398 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 6: keep letting you shoot. Eventually you'll miss right, you too, 399 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 6: de Kuon Plowden. Eventually you'll miss right. He did finally 400 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 6: miss after he made his first seven shots, finished seven 401 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 6: for eight. But when you're a team that is so 402 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 6: shorthanded like the Hawks were that you're calling up three 403 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 6: guys from the Skyhawks, Dominic Barlow was on the bench, 404 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 6: never got in. Yah, but you just play very free, 405 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 6: and you could tell that they were playing free and 406 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 6: the balls were whatever. The opposite of locked in is. 407 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 6: I told you, it's not a surprise when the Bulls 408 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 6: win any game or when they lose any game. They 409 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 6: played to the level of their competition. That means they're 410 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 6: good against the good teams and they might hit some threes, 411 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 6: and the bad teams they just do not care. 412 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's. 413 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 6: Exactly what it will always played in the level of. 414 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 3: Their competition for sure. 415 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 6: Yeah, the sky I said the Skyhawks, literally the Skyhawks 416 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 6: to me after last night, they shot thirteen of forty 417 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 6: three from three, that's thirty percent, and they outshot the Bulls, 418 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 6: who were six for twenty seven twenty two percent. And 419 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 6: College Park forced twenty turnovers in this one against Wendy City. 420 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 3: Andre Ingram, Yeah, I guess he tied them. Didn't Ingram 421 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 3: score nineteen did it his debut? 422 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 5: I don't know. 423 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 6: I think so he's right around there now on the 424 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 6: mount Rushmore of G League call ups, I've got, uh, 425 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 6: Andre Andre Ingram, Sundiata Gates, Yes, Dai Kwon Plowden, and 426 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 6: there's probably another guy who, oh listen to this. 427 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 3: According to Stattitudes, Plowden is just the fifth player in 428 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 3: in league history to make at least five threes in 429 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 3: his first career NBA game. Can you name any of 430 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 3: the other four guys that did it in their first 431 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 3: NBA game? I'm not talking about no, no, no. In fact, 432 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 3: I assume none of these guys were Julie callups. 433 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 5: But so there's some big name players, I mean, no, 434 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 5: guys you know. 435 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 3: But let me give them to you because you'll never 436 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 3: guess them. Donielle Marshall in his first game evers, ridiculous. 437 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 3: I thought the exact same thing. Jake Lahman did it. PJ. Washington, 438 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,199 Speaker 3: I vaguely remember that. I do remember, yeah, and then uh, 439 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 3: I don't remember Chris Duarte doing it. But now you 440 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 3: can add Daquon Plowden. Mister Plowden, that's his name. That 441 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 3: name again is mister Plowden. I wish I did that 442 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 3: on the Skyhawks call. Could never get it out. So 443 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 3: I'm glad I got it out you. 444 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 5: Mentioned last night. I can't wait to say that on 445 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 5: the ship. 446 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 3: It's too good with snow we had here in Atlanta. Yeah, Aud, 447 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 3: it's perfect, man. I want to joke the Bulls are 448 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 3: we have the receipts by the way, in our slack channel. 449 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 3: I think Trey even tweeted it out once we saw 450 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 3: because this was our Pickham game, I went with you. 451 00:20:58,320 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 5: I backed the Bulls. 452 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: Oh my god, who knows with this team? 453 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 5: Right? 454 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 3: And then we saw the list of all the Hawks 455 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 3: missing the game. Immediately we were like, well that's a 456 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 3: Hawks win. Oh yeah, And sure enough they won pretty comp. 457 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, just get all the low lights. They allowed 458 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 5: so many boards bounce on the floor, you know, on 459 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 5: the defensive glass. They literally let missus hit the floor 460 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 5: because they weren't getting after it. 461 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 6: It's got their boxing out so good. 462 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, right, I was unfortunate. Yeah. Keith Wallis is a baller. 463 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 5: He's played seventeen games with the Big Club. This year. 464 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 5: He played and Kobe Bufkin is injured for the Big Club. 465 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 5: He's out for the entire season, so Keith Wallace could 466 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 5: be their backup point guard in minutes, that's for sure. 467 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 5: The night before he hit a Skyhawk's game winner, so 468 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 5: he the guy can play, there's no doubt about that. 469 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 5: As far as Dikwon Plotten goes, it was great to 470 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 5: interview him about his big windmill. And I asked him, 471 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 5: why were you looking at the video board because he 472 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 5: dunked it, and they looked at Vivie board. He goes, 473 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 5: I want to see how high I jumped. He's a 474 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 5: very cool guy. He's a lot young than dere talking 475 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 5: about what I know, Yeah, I know, I do know. Well, 476 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 5: I talked to him this close. I put on a 477 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 5: tuxedo for not a tuxedo, I know, bow tie for him, 478 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 5: just for that guy. He's like Andre Andrea was way older. 479 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 5: This guy is twenty six. This guy can play a 480 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 5: little bit, is going to play some. He's been in 481 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 5: the G League, but you know he could get called 482 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 5: up for sure. 483 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 3: And uh hey, look the no Dung's bump is real. 484 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 3: When it comes to the Skyhawks, who was it last season? 485 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 3: Ve Creechy, Oh yeah, that was our guy. We saw 486 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 3: him in person Kobe Buffin to some extent too. We 487 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 3: saw him have forty point game when we were on 488 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 3: the call. Now it's these two guys, It's Wallace, It's flowed. 489 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 3: These are our guys. Man, I love these guys. 490 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 5: I always love to see a guy who went to 491 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 5: Bowling Green universe. So, sure, who are the NBA players 492 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 5: that went to Bowling Green? 493 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 6: They said, somebody Antonio Daniels. 494 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 5: That's a good one. That's on the broadcast. That's the 495 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 5: biggest current one. There is also another current one, which 496 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 5: is surprising. 497 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 3: Tony Kamara. 498 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 5: Yes, I know you. I don't know how you'll get it. 499 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 3: I'm never going to get it. I like last year 500 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 3: where Bowling Green was, I had no idea for the rest, 501 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 3: like my entire life. 502 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 5: Surprisingly, Yeah, I'm with you, no right now, Kentucky, that's 503 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 5: so weird. 504 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 3: It was in Ohio. I was. 505 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 5: Forere Shawn Holmes went there and Nate Thurmond went there, 506 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 5: all famer Nate Bowling Green. There you go. 507 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 3: Do you think Ryan Sutton tried to get into Bowling Green? 508 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 5: Look, you're looking for it. You're not plowed now. Now 509 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 5: you're digging for any joke you got. Ryan Senton's a bowler. 510 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 3: So you got to mention I have to mention him. 511 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 5: Yeah he didn't go there, No he should. Okay, bowling 512 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 5: greens in Canada. 513 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 3: It will be a part of America suit, all right. 514 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 3: A couple other games to touch on. John Ran had 515 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 3: twenty one and twelve. Okay, that's all boys, good loss. 516 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 3: But what number is thirty seven on the college parksquowks. 517 00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 6: I can't believe you don't know that. 518 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 3: I mean, Holly, it's the mascot's wow. 519 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 6: Oh sorry, JD, sorry about the switcher. 520 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 3: Okay, there you go, there you go. I was looking 521 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 3: at it the whole time, like it's okay, Vick Crachy, 522 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 3: I think it's twenty seven, that's right. So I'm like, yeah, 523 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 3: who's thirty seven? 524 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 5: Anyway? I call you might be more popular than Harry 525 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 5: the Hawk here in the city. It's no way. Jacks 526 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 5: Collie's Jacks flexing all the time. He's on the flex scam. 527 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 3: All he does is hit the gym though. That's it. 528 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 3: That's all these guys got muscles. Harry has personality, charisma. 529 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 3: He does a lot more with his beak than CALLI does. 530 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 3: Way more. Yes, stuff, I can't believe you said that. 531 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 3: All right, Ja Mary had twenty one to twelve carried 532 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 3: the Grizzlies past Wemban Yama and the Spurs one nine, 533 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 3: one fifteen. Let's just show the highlight that wasn't chastis 534 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 3: used to be a segment you used to do on 535 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 3: the starters and man Ja Morant dunking on wem Beat 536 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 3: after the whistle. 537 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 5: I don't think there's ever been a highlight that wasn't 538 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 5: a highlight that ever actually happened. That's that popular. I mean, 539 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 5: that is the highlight of the game period. That's what 540 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,360 Speaker 5: we'll remember. And Wemby went to go block it as well, 541 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 5: because there's first fan saying I was after the westle. 542 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 5: He wasn't trying to block it. He was trying to 543 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 5: block it. He went up as high as he possibly could. 544 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 5: And this freak. I mean, it's easy. It's easy to 545 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 5: forget what John Morant was able to do coming into 546 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 5: the season because of how he was injured last year. 547 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 5: And we have seen highlight after highlight after highlight of 548 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 5: what he's doing. 549 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:31,400 Speaker 3: And then he said I'm gonna stop dunking. 550 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, he did a lot. To me. A special dude. 551 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 3: That's one of the greatest highlight that wasn't of all 552 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 3: time for sure. 553 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 6: Oh absolutely, I h this happened. And then I went 554 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 6: and started watching I guess the Timberwolves Warriors game, and 555 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 6: it was a halftime and they showed this fifteen times. 556 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 6: They were talking about it like it counted, and you know, 557 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 6: as time goes on, it'll probably count in our minds 558 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 6: unless somebody gets wem Benyama like this again. Are we 559 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 6: gonna see a better dunk on Victor wem Banyama? Maybe 560 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 6: over time, because I mean Zach Edie had one that 561 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,719 Speaker 6: counted in this game. They weren't running that one back 562 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 6: one hundred times. No, no, no, But in my mind, 563 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 6: that whistle was because it was an and one, not 564 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 6: because he got filed on the perimeter. 565 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 3: He made a good point, like we're gonna see like 566 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 3: the Jahn Morant compilations moving forward of all his greatest dunks, 567 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 3: and this will probably be slipped in there, and as 568 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 3: time goes on, you're gonna forget that it actually didn't 569 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,199 Speaker 3: count because they came after the whistle. They attacked wem 570 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 3: Minyama all game. Yeah it was John Morant, not just 571 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 3: this play, a couple other ones where he went at 572 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 3: him hit floaters and then like you said, big zach Edie, 573 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 3: you know, dunking on him once, having a hook shot 574 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 3: on him the other time. Now, wen Minyama had eight 575 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 3: blocks all in the first half. He had us on 576 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 3: playback looking up who has the record for most blocks 577 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 3: in a game? Who is it against? Like Elmore Smith? 578 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 6: Is that his name, Elmore Smith? 579 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, seventeen you know, way back in the day. 580 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 3: It's been a long time since somebody even had like 581 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 3: more than than twelve. So wem Minyam was on peace 582 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 3: to set that, but obviously he didn't get one there 583 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 3: in the second half and instead got posterized after the whistle. 584 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 5: And what will be overlooked is that zach Edy also 585 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 5: dunked on Webby. 586 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 3: What he says, he's not a sexy No, definitely, zachar 587 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 3: Edy dunkin is not a sexiest job around ducky No. 588 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 5: But it was fun to see Wemby go at Triple 589 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 5: J and JA and Jackson Junior. That battle was pretty 590 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 5: good and Wenby had a bad night shooting the ball 591 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 5: jar and Jackson Junior was a damn good defender, played 592 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 5: him well, and the opposite happened as well. I mean, 593 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 5: Wemby did a great job against Daron Jackson Junior. But 594 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 5: what we will remember is mister Moran, that whistle happened 595 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 5: like just before too. I mean, that was a foul 596 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 5: in the perimeter, but it was like they were lining 597 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 5: each other up and then the whistle happened. Like who 598 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 5: cares about the whistle? Just swallow it for a second. 599 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 5: Let's just watch this. That was just art. 600 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 6: It was literally just them too. 601 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was like the higher side of the floor, Like, 602 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 3: let's see what this is like. It's like everybody is like, oh, 603 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,959 Speaker 3: this should be an event at All Star weekend. Get 604 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 3: rid of the dunk contest, or at least a fix 605 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 3: the dunk contest. We have blockers out there. Remember we 606 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 3: used to be piss saying this like twenty years like, 607 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 3: how cool would it be if you tried to dunk 608 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 3: on Matumbo, you know, rest in Peace or Ben Wallace, Like, 609 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 3: let's see that this is sort of what it was like. 610 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 3: It is a pretty good example of what that would 611 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 3: actually look like. Now, guys would get injured. I'm sure 612 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 3: trying to dump a problem weather, but uh yeah, it 613 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 3: was a little moment in time there. 614 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 6: I got two last things first of all Grizzlies. They 615 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 6: get my League Past Team of the Week award because 616 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 6: they had played just awesome games this week Rockets, Wolves, Rockets, 617 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 6: and then this one against his Spurs, and we got 618 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 6: to give a big shout out to Desmond Bange. This 619 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 6: guy's playing pretty well right now. It's twenty one points 620 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 6: in this one, eight of thirteen field goals. Had a 621 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 6: really slow start to the season through November, thirteen games 622 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 6: fourteen points per game, shooting forty one percent from the field. 623 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,239 Speaker 6: In December got up to nineteen a game, fifty two 624 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 6: from the field forty one from three, and then six 625 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 6: games here in January's up to twenty one a game 626 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 6: shooting fifty six from the field forty one from three. 627 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 6: Definitely the team has changed with uh John Morant coming 628 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 6: back ed playing. You know, Santi al damas a bigger 629 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 6: part of this team than he was Marcus Smart, he 630 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 6: never plays, but he's around. I think it's kind of 631 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 6: been tough for Baying to figure out where he fits 632 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 6: in with Jaron Jackson Junior being a lot more of 633 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 6: the offense as well. But if he's able to score 634 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 6: twenty a game shooting fifty forty that's gonna be awesome 635 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 6: for the Grizzlies. They need somebody on the perimeter who 636 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 6: does it from the outside. And Ban is a lot 637 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 6: better at driving now than he was when he came in. 638 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 6: So if he's hitting threes and getting to the rim, 639 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 6: good stuff, the Grizzlies can have a decent offense. 640 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 3: One other very funny moment from this game. I'm sure 641 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 3: you guys saw a lot of people out there on 642 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 3: the stream team were listening to the podcast just illustrating 643 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 3: Chris Paul's sort of basketball IQ but in a very 644 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 3: funny way. Zachi Edy fell to the floor, had the ball, 645 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 3: so he can't get up. Obviously you can't go anywhere, 646 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 3: so hey, you put your hands on the ball. Obviously 647 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 3: get a jump ball situation. But Chris Paul is like 648 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 3: immediately like, well, why would I wrap him up and 649 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 3: then try to have a jump ball with Zach Edy 650 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 3: reaches across, grabs Wembin Yama's arm in hand and puts 651 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 3: it on the ball, like you tie him up to 652 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 3: try and get the jump ball, So damn funny and 653 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 3: and legit like wow in the time, in like immediate 654 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 3: second thinking to do that is pretty next level thinking 655 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 3: he's smart. 656 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 6: What to me, Like when DeAndre Jordan grabbed that offensive rebound, 657 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 6: there was like one point two seconds left and Chris 658 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 6: Paul's like DeAndre George just like laughing. He just processes 659 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 6: things very quickly. I also liked the Chris Paul moment 660 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 6: where Scotty Pippen Junior picked him at half court, just 661 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 6: picked his pocket, took it down for the layup. They 662 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 6: try and inboonand it to Chris Paul and Scotty Pippen 663 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 6: Junior took a charge on Chris Paul. 664 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 3: I was like, you got Chris Paul. 665 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 5: That's the teacher and the student. 666 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 3: Right, All right, Let's move on to a controversial ending 667 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 3: between the Pels and MAVs. So fifteen seconds remaining, Dallas 668 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 3: trailing one, seventeen one sixteen. PJ. Washington got a steal 669 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 3: near mid court and the MAVs pushed the ball. In transition, 670 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 3: Dinwitty received the pass. You can roll it in here. 671 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,479 Speaker 3: JD goes up for a potential go ahead lay up 672 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 3: and as Trey Murphy the third trailed, goes for the 673 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 3: block and they say he got it. That's a block. 674 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 3: Play on but you're going to see the replay here. 675 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 3: That ball hit the glass before Murphy touched it should 676 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 3: be a goaltend. Now, a lot of times tasks, the 677 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 3: officials will call it right, They'll say goaltend so they 678 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 3: can go and look at it and confirm whether or 679 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 3: not it was They didn't hear, and that's the issue. MAVs, 680 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 3: out of timeouts couldn't challenge and so that was pretty 681 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 3: rough way to lose a game for the Dallas Mavericks. 682 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 3: I'm not happy about that. 683 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 5: You're not happy about that? 684 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 3: No, I said, they're not. 685 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 5: Oh they're not. He said, I'm not happy. 686 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 3: I sh. 687 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, No, I don't care at all. It could 688 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 5: have been a good win for them without Kyrie and Luca. 689 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 5: Kyrie just came back and he has to sit in 690 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 5: this one, and then Spencer didn't when he did a 691 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 5: very smart thing and literally just put his hand almost 692 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 5: on the glass. He was literally he knew, I just 693 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 5: got to get it to the glass as fast as possible. 694 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 5: Now watching it live, I thought, what a beautiful block. 695 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 5: I had no idea. Then watching the replay, of course 696 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 5: it hit the glass. He literally did it on purpose 697 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 5: to make sure that the air quotes. You know, Paul 698 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 5: hit the glass, so it would be called that didn't happen, 699 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 5: And then you look at it you think, I don't 700 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 5: think it was going in anyway, but it doesn't matter. 701 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 5: He hit the glass. That's the call. Trey Murphy beautiful block. 702 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 5: This was the biggest win for the Pelicans this season. 703 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 5: They've won three and three in four, which doesn't happen 704 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 5: in New Orleans this season. That's they have it. It 705 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 5: was a really great finish for this game. That was 706 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 5: their biggest win. So it was I don't know, I 707 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 5: don't feel too bad in that situation, just because it was. 708 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 5: It was just a big, a big win for that team. 709 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 3: What's weird though, is like, again we talked about it 710 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 3: in the Sixers next game, that the maxi that get 711 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 3: it into overtime, it was called a goal ten, and 712 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 3: they called it, like the officials like okay, let's go 713 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 3: review it, let's take up load to make sure, and 714 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 3: like in real time we were like it was an 715 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 3: obvious goal ten. Guys like what are you doing? But 716 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 3: again they usually call it just to sort of save 717 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 3: their asses. I'm talking about they as the officials, because 718 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 3: it's like, well, if we call it, then we can 719 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 3: look at it and make sure we get it right. 720 00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 3: So that was like a little surprising that they didn't 721 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 3: when they should have, because if you watch the replay, 722 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 3: it's obvious it is a goaltend whether or not it 723 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 3: goes in. But didn't. What he says, like, I've been 724 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 3: making money my whole career doing that. 725 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 6: I've been making biting my whole career. 726 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, this's my whole thing. I just put it 727 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 3: on the glass whether it's going to go in or not, 728 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 3: because I know the guy's going to try and block 729 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 3: it and I'm going to get the goal ten And 730 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 3: yeah they did. They should have called it at the point. 731 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 5: I guess they don't call it because Trey murve it 732 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 5: came out of nowhere to make that block, and so 733 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 5: I think they were all impressed. Wow, that was a 734 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 5: very very great effort by Trey Murphy. The third maybe 735 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 5: there was a surprise that a guy came out of 736 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 5: nowhere and it looked clean live, but obviously not close. 737 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 3: Any thoughts on this game. It was a wild ending. 738 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 3: There's a lot going on there. Even like we showed 739 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 3: you there the steel to. 740 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 5: Go the other play it perfectly. 741 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 6: Dallas played it perfectly to actually get the steal without fouling, 742 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 6: because I feel like the Pelicans Inboden with what like 743 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 6: probably thirteen seconds left or something like that, they got 744 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 6: the trap. PJ. Washington knocks it out, they go the 745 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 6: other way, no need for a time out. Got a 746 00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 6: layup that should have gave him a chance to the 747 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 6: game at the very least, so to me, looked like 748 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 6: an obvious call in real time, Like I thought it 749 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 6: was a layup that was gonna go in. So then 750 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 6: the fact that they didn't call it, especially having just 751 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 6: watched six Ers versus next where they did the same thing, 752 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 6: very weird. But also, we don't need any reviews, so 753 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 6: what's supposed to happen there, Like you're supposed to call 754 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 6: it and go for an instant review off the biggest 755 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 6: play of the game that really takes the wind out 756 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 6: of the sales. But you know it's bad when the 757 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,839 Speaker 6: NBA doesn't put up a wild ending on YouTube. They 758 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 6: had to delete their post about this on Twitter as 759 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 6: well because they got community noted because they called it 760 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 6: a blog stuff off the backboard, which is true, but 761 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,799 Speaker 6: it was also a goaltender majorly I. 762 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 3: Immediately thought that too. I was like, how are they 763 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 3: gonna how are they gonna handle this one on the 764 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 3: NBA YouTube page. What are they gonna say for the 765 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 3: caption of the video. Yeah, I don't even put it up. 766 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 3: Other games last night, I'm gonna split them into the 767 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 3: Eastern Conference wins and the Western Conference wins. RJ. Barrett 768 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 3: starred as the Raptors beat the Celtics one, ten ninety seven. 769 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 3: They snapped a ten game losing streak against the Celtics. 770 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 3: Been a while since they had beaten them. Lillard scored 771 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 3: third as the Bucks rolled over the Magic and Mark 772 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 3: Williams He's got no Nick Richards breathing down his neck anymore. 773 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 3: He goes for your career high thirty one points? Is 774 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 3: the Hornets beat the Jazz one seventeen, won twelve? Any 775 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 3: thoughts on any of those Eastern Conference ws? 776 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,839 Speaker 6: You guys have any concern about the Celtics right now? 777 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 6: They're losing to bad teams. They lost to the Bulls, 778 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 6: they lost to the Sixers, they lost to the Raptors. 779 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 5: That's all. 780 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 6: I'm pretty sure. With Kristaps porzingis in the lineup, they're 781 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 6: only nine to eight in the seventeen games since he 782 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 6: has returned. Their three point shooting in the month of January, 783 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,760 Speaker 6: Boston shooting thirty three percent. That's not good. Opponents shooting 784 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 6: forty percent that is very good. And it's basically the 785 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 6: starters who are playing poorly. Drew Holiday thirty one from 786 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 6: three in January, Tatum thirty one, Derek White twenty eight, 787 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 6: Jalen Brown a miserable twenty from three. So I don't 788 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 6: know if it's something to actually be worried about. Like 789 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 6: we saw the Celtics last season, they lost back to 790 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 6: back games to the Hawks when the Hawks were injured. 791 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 6: I do only even think they had Tree young at 792 00:35:58,320 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 6: that point. It was de Jante Murray carrying the team 793 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 6: forty on forty shots, if I'm not mistaken. They obviously 794 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,800 Speaker 6: went on and dominated the playoffs, won the championship without 795 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 6: Porzingis playing the majority of the playoffs, so it didn't 796 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 6: actually matter. But the Eastern Conference seems better. You know, 797 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 6: the Cavs are way way ahead of the Celtics right now, 798 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,760 Speaker 6: so I think they got to be a little bit worried. 799 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 6: Surely they'll shoot better going forward, just because you know 800 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 6: they'll figure out exactly how they're going to be defended, 801 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 6: and that kind of stuff, but opponents shooting forty percent 802 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 6: is bad. I'm not as worried about the offense and 803 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 6: that it would be about the defense. 804 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 5: How dare you they're losing against bad teams. Did you 805 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,840 Speaker 5: see the Toronto Raptors last night. I'm not so worried 806 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 5: about the Boss and Celtics. I mean, they are on 807 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 5: pace for like fifty six wins. It just it smells 808 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 5: like a championship team that's come into this season playing 809 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 5: well to start, and they have this lull and just 810 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 5: going through the Yeah, I think it's important that they 811 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 5: finish second in the Eastern Conference. That's the scary part. 812 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 5: The Knicks aren't too far back, only a couple of 813 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,840 Speaker 5: games back, so that's the scary part for that. But 814 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 5: they just were ready for this team that was ready 815 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 5: to move it. They were passing so well, thirty five 816 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:10,760 Speaker 5: assists on forty five baskets. They weren't ready for that offense. 817 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 5: They just weren't. They weren't ready to play that hard 818 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 5: because they were really moving it extremely well. Shout out 819 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 5: to all the guys out there that were doing it, 820 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 5: like Archie Baird an incredibly efficient game, but even Scottie 821 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 5: Barnes not a great stat line, but he was guarding 822 00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,360 Speaker 5: really well against Tatum Brown. They were all guarding Tatum 823 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 5: and Brown and Derek White, who's gone extremely cold the 824 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 5: last couple months. They were doing it. They're ten and 825 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 5: thirty one on pace for twenty wins. 826 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 3: Was it the Raptors bull win of the season, probably 827 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 3: again snapping the streak against a really good team who's 828 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 3: like could use a w Probably was at home in 829 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:52,800 Speaker 3: front of the home crown. I wanted to make this 830 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 3: note just about the Bucks steamroll in the Magic the 831 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 3: other day. I did point out sort of made fun 832 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 3: of them a little bit, the Bucks being zero to 833 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 3: eight versus the top three teams in the Eastern Conference Calves, Celtics, Knicks. 834 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 3: Frank Madden, who covers the Bucks, did point out they 835 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 3: are twelve and two against all other five hundred plus teams, 836 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 3: including nine to one against the other East teams above 837 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,279 Speaker 3: five hundred, which include of course the Magic last night. 838 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 3: So struggling against the top three, but doing really really 839 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 3: well against the other you know, quote unquote good teams 840 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 3: in their conference and in the league. So fair point, 841 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 3: Frank duly noted, and they, yeah, they just crushed them. 842 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,280 Speaker 3: Lillard was hot to start, and him and the Honest 843 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 3: did enough to take care of the Magic. The Western 844 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,840 Speaker 3: Conference wins four of them for you. Green and Shngon 845 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 3: helped the Rockets beat the shorthanded Nuggets. Eight Warriors fended 846 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 3: off the walls one sixteen, one to fifteen. Career had 847 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 3: thirty one points. They're back to five hundred. Hachimura and 848 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,800 Speaker 3: ad helped the Lakers and a little three game skid. 849 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 3: They got the one to seventeen one oh eight win 850 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 3: over the Heat, and the Clippers routed the Nets one 851 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 3: twenty six to sixty seven for the largest margin of 852 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 3: victory and team history. One twenty six to sixty seven 853 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 3: clips over Nets. But do you have any takeaways from U? 854 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 3: The Western Conference wins TK Well. 855 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 6: I mean one twenty six to sixty seven is crazy. 856 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 6: This game was tied after the first quarter twenty one 857 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,799 Speaker 6: to twenty one. Can't believe that they lost the last 858 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 6: three quarters by what nearly sixty points? Fifty nine points. 859 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 6: Tyrese Martin coming in at a minus fifty six worse 860 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 6: than the league this season. Second is his teammate in 861 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 6: this game, Noah Clowney minus forty four. Blah Kulabali earlier 862 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 6: this year had a minus forty four, not the worst ever, 863 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 6: though Scoot Henderson minus fifty eight still has it last 864 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 6: season sixty seven points obviously the few is this year, 865 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 6: but Kwhi Leonard played twenty three points in twenty four minutes. 866 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 6: Jumper was money, looked like mostly mid Rangers, looked like 867 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 6: an easy game for it. 868 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, they played. LA's largest lead was sixty four points. Yeah, 869 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 3: midway through the fourth and that was despite Tyler pulling 870 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 3: his starters like in the third quarter because it was 871 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 3: garbage time early in this one. 872 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 5: One starter that they've changed coming into this game. They 873 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 5: pulled Chris Doun from the starting lineup and now it's 874 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 5: Kawhi Leonard bringing the ball up a lot of time 875 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 5: he watched him actually played point guard sort of. And 876 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 5: now and they have their starting lineup which they would 877 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 5: play in the playoffs. It's James Harden, Norman Powell, Kawhi Leonard, 878 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 5: Derek Jones Junior who helped the MAVs get to the 879 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 5: finals last year. And he eats the Zubats. They kind 880 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 5: of looked like their team. We'll see if Kawhi Leonard 881 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 5: plays basketball the rest of the season. But other stuff 882 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 5: I thought the fact that Jalen Green dunked on Dario 883 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 5: Sarch's head and that was just totally overlooked because of 884 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 5: John Movie. 885 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was actually the dunk in the Night, the 886 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,399 Speaker 3: official Dunk in the Night dunk score. 887 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 5: It was huge, it was sexy, It was a great 888 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,879 Speaker 5: he lost him and then the cockback huge dunk, as 889 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 5: he usually does. He tried to give it to Zach 890 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,359 Speaker 5: Edy earlier this week. He tries to dunk on people. 891 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 5: And on the other side, Christian Brown had a great 892 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:56,400 Speaker 5: dunk as well. That was on Cam Whitmore. I was 893 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 5: pretty as well, So good dunks there. I was surprised 894 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 5: to see this was a trap game for the Rockets, 895 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 5: potentially with no Jokic, no Aaron Gordon and the Nuggets 896 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 5: are eight to zero on the second night of back 897 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:11,040 Speaker 5: to backs coming into this game. I was surprised by that. 898 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 5: Another eight and one. I tak the Miami Heat. They 899 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 5: needed Jimmy Butler watching them in the fourth quarter. 900 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 3: Well what happens there? Yeah? 901 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 5: I cannot wait. Yeah, because tell Hero was great to start. 902 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 5: You got a little colder in the second half, but 903 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,439 Speaker 5: Bam Metabio just wasn't there. I mean he was playing well. 904 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 5: He was trying to play well on Anthony Davis defensively, 905 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 5: but he had seven shot attempts in this game. Their 906 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 5: second highest score was Haywood Highsmith with eleven points. I 907 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 5: ain't good enough. They literally needed as the Lakers picked 908 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 5: up their defense in the second half, they needed somebody 909 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 5: to finish the game. They needed Jimmy. What is going 910 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 5: to happen? 911 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 3: That is suspension is over, but you know Chris Haynes 912 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 3: and his briefs telling us they might change it. I 913 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 3: guess is what he was saying in terms of how 914 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 3: they delegate his suspension and elongated what. 915 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 5: Else's no longer suspension. That's what it looks like. How 916 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,919 Speaker 5: can you let him come back if he's just gonna 917 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 5: come back for a couple of games. I mean, it's 918 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:08,919 Speaker 5: really weird. 919 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 3: I don't think he's gonna play, I really don't. But 920 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 3: it's a bit of a you know, it's a staring 921 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,640 Speaker 3: contest here between pat Riley and obviously Jimmy Butler in 922 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 3: his camp, like who blinks first? Because those are both 923 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,439 Speaker 3: some stubborn ass dudes. Oh yeah, so you know, buckle 924 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 3: up here. 925 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 6: I guess I did see that the Miami Heat are 926 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 6: bringing back their vice uniforms. They're going to be wearing 927 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 6: them instead of I think they're actual white uniforms. And 928 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 6: they use the picture of Jimmy Butler wearing the uniform 929 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 6: like a hero. Bam Jimmy, And I don't know who 930 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 6: the other guy was. I forget at this point, but 931 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 6: he was definitely featured. 932 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to get rid of the inventory. 933 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 6: Interesting quickly. 934 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 3: Interesting those jerseys are. 935 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,919 Speaker 5: It was interesting to see the Golden State Warriors team 936 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 5: that's rumored to want to, you know, blow it up. 937 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 5: They had some fight in them last night to give 938 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,320 Speaker 5: it to the Wolves in the first quarter without Draymond 939 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 5: Green and a bunch of them other guys, they fought 940 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 5: and they got into a little bit of a fight themselves. 941 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 5: There was I saw that. Yeah, Gary Payton the second 942 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 5: and uh, Buddy Hilt, Buddy heal going at it. Dennis 943 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,720 Speaker 5: Shrewder came in and was peacemaker and took them aside 944 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,439 Speaker 5: and let's talk it out. They were just fighting about 945 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 5: where they were supposed to be on the floor. 946 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 3: Never seen Gary Payton the second sort of that animate 947 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 3: though he was angry. He was pissed off. Buddy Hil, 948 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 3: you know what the hell we're doing over here, you 949 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:24,879 Speaker 3: don't know where to go, And then you're right yet 950 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 3: sunder pulling them both aside. You guys are gonna make 951 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:29,720 Speaker 3: up right now, talk out your difference. 952 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, so it seems like they're a team, even though 953 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 5: even though they could use some offensive help, that is 954 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 5: for sure. There's all this talk a Steph, you know, 955 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:44,320 Speaker 5: wants wants them to blow it up. But then this 956 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 5: aftermath here where he says, let's let's play it by 957 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 5: ear here, let's not go. So that's that part's interesting. 958 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,920 Speaker 5: Although you know, the Wolves they stank coming out of 959 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 5: the gate. You know, they do look a lot better 960 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,080 Speaker 5: with Dante de Vincenzo. They're now four and two with 961 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,759 Speaker 5: Dante de Vincenzo in the starting lineup. They lost a 962 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 5: game to the Grizzlies where they shot fifty seven percent. 963 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 5: What help with that was that was a close game. 964 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,399 Speaker 5: But this one was just a bad, bad start. Even 965 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 5: though Dante's cooking twenty eight points for him, six threes 966 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 5: for him, He's had nineteen threes over his last four games. 967 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 5: That's the guy that Ant needs beside him. But they 968 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 5: just can't get too stinky starts like that was stinky. 969 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 6: Anthony Edwards said postgame, our starters are terrible. Yeah, He's like, 970 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 6: we have no energy when we come out. They were 971 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 6: down thirty four to twelve. They did a good job 972 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 6: to get back in this game, but putting themselves down 973 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 6: like that in the first quarter meant that they had 974 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 6: to play perfectly down the stretch, and they didn't. Dante 975 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 6: DiVincenzo filed Buddy hill Do on a three pointer with 976 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,239 Speaker 6: three and a half minutes left, Anthony Edwards completely lost 977 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 6: Curry for a three point or two and a half 978 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 6: minutes left. Then nas Reed once again loses Curry for 979 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 6: a three pointer with fifty seconds left. That's the one 980 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 6: where he's yelling at the fans, and then Andrew Wiggins 981 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 6: grabb an offensive rebound off Gary Payton's missed free throws 982 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 6: with six seconds left. Like, if they make any of 983 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,960 Speaker 6: those four plays, they win this game. But the Timberwolves 984 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 6: just aren't locked in. They have no attention to detail 985 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 6: right now. They think they're just gonna be able to 986 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 6: coast through wins. Julius Randall was benched for the fourth 987 00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:07,839 Speaker 6: quarter of this game. They were going with nas Red. 988 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 6: People tell you that's gonna work better. 989 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:09,479 Speaker 5: It doesn't. 990 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:11,319 Speaker 6: He doesn't play defense and you can see it here. 991 00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 6: So I just don't think they have the mix right. 992 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 6: They'll win some games, they might get a good matchup 993 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 6: in the playoffs, but I think this has been a 994 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,359 Speaker 6: disappointing season. Yeah, from Minnesota, and it doesn't release. I mean, 995 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 6: Devincenzo starting has definitely helped. I thought he was their 996 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,320 Speaker 6: best player last night, hitting threes and actually helping on 997 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 6: the glass. But the rebounding is so bad, Like Gobert 998 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 6: doesn't hardly rebound anymore compared to where he used to be. 999 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,880 Speaker 6: Randall's not the same rebounder that Towns is. They have 1000 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 6: to play perfectly and they're just not capable of it 1001 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 6: right now. That's a disappointing loss. 1002 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1003 00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,880 Speaker 3: Well, let's move from the games last night to some 1004 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 3: NBA trivia.

Yeah, 1204 00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:38,920 Speaker 5: it was. Nobody knew. Nobody knew that. Everybody was like 1205 00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:45,320 Speaker 5: somebody farted and CD was getting a little smelly. He 1206 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:47,399 Speaker 5: didn't like the smell. That's all I got to say. 1207 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 3: I remember him from that. Do you think c D 1208 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 3: said planted that fart?

I 1211 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 5: bet you. I'm sure would know after doing all this research. 1212 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,200 Speaker 5: Maybe Gustav Vega asked in that first game, the twenty 1213 00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 5: twenty Paris game, yea, did Rudy Gobert get sick? There's 1214 00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 5: a game where Rudy Gobert got sick. 1215 00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:18,640 Speaker 3: Why would be Rudy Gobert be playing for the Bucks 1216 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 3: or Hornets? 1217 00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:22,879 Speaker 5: Yeah, he shouldn't be, remember that trade. 1218 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,279 Speaker 3: Those are the only and you gotta remember there there 1219 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,759 Speaker 3: have been a lot of preseason like Paris games, for sure, 1220 00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:30,000 Speaker 3: but maybe that's shocked that this is only going to 1221 00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 3: be our fourth time regular season games being played there 1222 00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 3: and first time ever that they're going to do the 1223 00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:38,719 Speaker 3: old back to back there in Paris too, where both 1224 00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 3: teams are going to play two games, which is smart. 1225 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,040 Speaker 3: You're gonna go all that way, you might as well 1226 00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:44,480 Speaker 3: do that, especially when you Gotama. One of the trivia 1227 00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 3: questions was going to be it was that during the 1228 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:50,400 Speaker 3: that Bulls Pistons year, who was the biggest celebrity at 1229 00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:54,520 Speaker 3: the Bulls Pistons game in Paris? Theymar no, well, no, 1230 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 3: the joke was because that was like a big deal. 1231 00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,359 Speaker 3: It was the everybody's going crazy, the nineteen year old. 1232 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:05,440 Speaker 6: So you're telling me it's Spurs Pacers twice. Yes, yeah, 1233 00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:09,640 Speaker 6: Pacers fans don't get to see Wembanama playing Indiana. Oh 1234 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:10,879 Speaker 6: guess not bad for them. 1235 00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:14,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's interesting. Now both of them will have 1236 00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 3: a home game, which I found out too, Like when 1237 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:20,920 Speaker 3: it's your home game over there, they do fly out 1238 00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 3: your entire like operational team. 1239 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 6: Okay, so will they fly out both sounds like a 1240 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 6: party operational teams. 1241 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:33,280 Speaker 3: They probably will. It's could be a party, JD. You're 1242 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 3: gonna be partying with the guy who runs the clock 1243 00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:41,000 Speaker 3: for the Indiana Pacers, and you know he's gonna know 1244 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:45,720 Speaker 3: what it's last call for sure. Yeah, are right? Okay 1245 00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,439 Speaker 3: pick up tonight tasks. Where are we going? 1246 00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:49,840 Speaker 5: Oh? 1247 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:52,240 Speaker 3: I know where we're going. We got a beautiful rematch. 1248 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 5: Tonight the two best teams the National Basketball Association. Cleveland 1249 00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:58,880 Speaker 5: going okay see, okay see, fair bye two and a half, 1250 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 5: Cleveland winning last week. So I assumed everybody's taking okay see. 1251 00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,960 Speaker 5: How can you bet against th hell Yeah, but Isaiah 1252 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 5: Heinstein injured his calf, so he will not be playing. 1253 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:14,080 Speaker 5: So there's two of us that are taking Cleveland comfortable 1254 00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:17,080 Speaker 5: with two extra points or winning this game because okay 1255 00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 5: see has to win by three ash and I are 1256 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:22,880 Speaker 5: taking Cleveland. You guys got okay see understandable. They're gonna 1257 00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:26,560 Speaker 5: be teeny tiny against a biggie team without Hernstein and 1258 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:27,480 Speaker 5: Chat and mobile. 1259 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,320 Speaker 3: Jared Allen like cooked in the first game, So yeah, 1260 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:32,160 Speaker 3: if they do that and they hit corner threes, then 1261 00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 3: they're gonna win again. But I'm I'm thinking that OKAC 1262 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:36,920 Speaker 3: home crowd and we're gonna see a better performance from 1263 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 3: the Thunder, especially from the jump here. So that's why 1264 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:41,280 Speaker 3: I'm taking okay see. But I'm one and eight in 1265 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,479 Speaker 3: this month, so one of the worst records of all. 1266 00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 6: Time, I think when we've been following pickums. So that's 1267 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:49,800 Speaker 6: how bad it's been for me. But I just hope 1268 00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:52,960 Speaker 6: it can at least try to live up to what 1269 00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:54,919 Speaker 6: we got in the last game between these two teams 1270 00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:55,960 Speaker 6: that people were saying game. 1271 00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 3: Of the year.
