Speaker 3: NBA always delivers, and we have another great game, Game

30
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 3: one of the Eastern Conference Finals. Jimmy Frickin Butler, you

31
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 3: said it, task scores thirty five as the Heat rally

32
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 3: to beat the Celtics one twenty three, one sixteen to

33
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 3: take once again the one to ozer lead in a series,

34
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 3: the third time in this playoffs, where he went in

35
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 3: and won on the road in Game one.

36
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 4: And the Celtics love giving away a game. That's what

37
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 4: they do, that's how they roll. Love it. But you

38
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 4: can do it against the Hawks, you can do it

39
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 4: against the Sixers. I'm not sure you can do it

40
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 4: against the Miami Heat. We're calling this the Jimmy Butler game.

41
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 4: But he's got a better one in him. I think

42
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 4: in terms of scoring, I mean, this was a game

43
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 4: where he was just setting up everybody, everything going through him.

44
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 4: You had five other guys with multiple threes on this team,

45
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 4: and that's all Jimmy Gabe three threes, Max three threes,

46
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 4: Caleb Martin, Kyle Lowry three threes, piece, Kevin Love a

47
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 4: couple threes as well. Max a big start to that

48
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 4: third quarter where they scored forty six fricking points. But

49
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 4: Max game and Max the Mad Max call from Reggie Miller.

50
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 4: I know we all get caught and giving people nicknames,

51
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 4: but Max Strews does not deserve a Mad Max by

52
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 4: any means. But he I mean, I do say everything

53
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 4: kind of went through Jimmy, but Max Strews created a

54
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 4: big three to start that rally on his own. Just

55
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 4: crossover cross over big three. But I think, yeah, this

56
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 4: was the perfect heat game in that he was setting

57
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 4: everybody up, and there was a combination of him setting

58
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 4: everybody up and the Celtics making mistakes. A couple of

59
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 4: minutes left in the fourth quarter, Marcus Smart pulled at

60
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 4: Jalen Brown from last last series where Jayleen Brown left

61
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 4: the strong side corner and Jimmy James Harden. Jimmy James

62
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 4: Harden hit that three, Marcus Smart did the exact same thing,

63
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 4: leaving Caleb Martin in the corner, and it goes from

64
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 4: a four point game to a seven point game. More

65
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 4: mistakes on the Celtics side, with Jason Tatum turned the

66
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 4: ball over three times basically in the last few minutes

67
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 4: of the game. So it's a combination of Jimmy and

68
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 4: his crew. I mean, he's just ahead of the snake

69
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 4: where he's the best player obviously on this team, but

70
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 4: you know, he'll get the MVP if they go win

71
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 4: this thing, but everybody, everybody doing it behind him. I mean,

72
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 4: those numbers that I just said, can they repeat all that?

73
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't think this is the Jimmy game, really.

74
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 4: I think this is the game where they all hit

75
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 4: threes and this out that's got to be worried about.

76
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 4: Another Jimmy game. Come over, he's gonna score forty five.

77
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,839
Speaker 3: The Pulse wrote this morning Tray. There's a point where

78
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 3: something marvelous, astonishing even becomes the norm. And what began

79
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 3: this postseason as an incredible effort from Jimmy Butler has

80
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 3: become regular he has done this multiple times now here

81
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 3: thirty five in game one. Let's not forget these seven assists,

82
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 3: six steals, some big it felt well yeah, and five rebounds.

83
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 3: He was locked in early tray. I thought, you knowed, yeah,

84
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 3: the layups get into the line, dribbling into space for

85
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 3: the jumper, especially you know when time Lord was sort

86
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 3: of hanging back. And then I loved him shutting up

87
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 3: the crowd early when the Beantown boys got excited that

88
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 3: excited about Peyton Pritchard being on him, and there was like,

89
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 3: Ohtcheard's on him, He'll lock him up. And then he

90
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 3: just hit a jumper baseline over him and you could

91
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 3: tell Jimmy turned to the crowd like, shut up, shut

92
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 3: the hell up, silly beans.

93
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 6: I agree with Tats. I agree with still with the

94
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 6: here and the stream team. That was Jimmy, not totally Himmy.

95
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 6: There is another level he can go to, but that's

96
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 6: definitely scary for the Celtics because he's still completely dominated

97
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 6: the game. Like I said, the six steals in the

98
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 6: fourth quarter, it felt like there was never a deflection

99
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 6: steal in the ball just ended up in Jimmy's hands.

100
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 6: It was a pickoff and he's going the other way

101
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 6: and the Heat are getting a basket out of it.

102
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,799
Speaker 6: He was by far the best player on the court

103
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 6: last night, and he's been the best player so far

104
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 6: in the Eastern Conference for the most part. But the

105
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 6: problem for the Celtics last night was that you can't

106
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 6: take away everything, but they took away literally nothing because

107
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 6: Jimmy best guy on the court thirty five points. Bam

108
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 6: was the second best guy on the court twenty points

109
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,479
Speaker 6: last night. He was so aggressive pushing the tempo. The

110
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 6: Heat basically played through him as their point forward if

111
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 6: it's not Jimmy handling the ball. And then fourteen three

112
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 6: pointers from the shooters outside of Jimmy and Bam. That's

113
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 6: like a perfect Miami Heat game. I mean, they're shooting

114
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,679
Speaker 6: over fifty percent. That's something you would more so expect

115
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 6: from the Celtics rather than the Heat in a game

116
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 6: like this. But apparently it was a season long con

117
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 6: job by Miami. We can't shoot at all, and now

118
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 6: they're on fire and they never miss. It's incredible.

119
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 4: Yeah. To hear Stan Van Gundy say on the broadcast,

120
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 4: every one of their shooters has a better percentage in

121
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 4: the playoffs than the regular season, and it's totally true.

122
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 4: I mean, they just they're just new players.

123
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 3: Well thedn't they lead the league in three point percentage

124
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 3: last season, you know, not this regular season with the

125
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 3: season before. So yeah, no, they're on fire right now.

126
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 3: They're getting good looks in they're like obviously generating a

127
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 3: ton of them because of Jimmy and all the attention

128
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 3: he was drawing. And we had the Celtics shooting the

129
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 3: bed here late again too. I mean this has been

130
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 3: sort of always rearing its ugly head in these postseason.

131
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 3: In this postseason, the Celtics were within five with five

132
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 3: minutes to go. You know, you're at home here you go,

133
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,919
Speaker 3: you got superstars on your team, and this is what happened.

134
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 3: Jalen Brown missed a three. I thought he had a

135
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 3: really good look at that one, couldn't knock it down.

136
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,559
Speaker 3: Then we had al Horford missing a three. That's okay,

137
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 3: he grabbed his offensive rebound, but then he had a turnover.

138
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,359
Speaker 3: That's where Jimmy, like like a cornerback, just went up

139
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 3: and grabbed it and went the other way. So that's

140
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 3: a pick six there. Then we had a Tatum turnover.

141
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 3: I thought Max Strews stood him up. It was really

142
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 3: impressive defense from Struce, who also had one against Jalen

143
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 3: Brown that he was cutting them him off baseline, so

144
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 3: a really good job of him.

145
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 4: Mad Max was awesome.

146
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 3: And when he got when he got locked up there

147
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 3: by bad Max. That one resulted in a Jimmy pick six.

148
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 3: Now that was just a brutal Tatum pass, like Jimmy

149
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 3: was standing right there. Yeah, that was a weird one.

150
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 3: But anyway, then we had brogged and missing one of

151
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 3: two free throws, and then we had the two Tatum

152
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 3: turnovers where he traveled one driving into traffic, shuffling the

153
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 3: feet there when he picked up the ball, and the

154
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 3: other one he traveled on the pump fake three where

155
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 3: that toad just came up and it was Martin closing

156
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 3: out like a madman, like a mad Martin. But that's

157
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 3: three Tatum turnovers there in ninety seconds.

158
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 6: You're not gonna see many worst fourth quarters from Jason

159
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 6: Tatum company diaper disaster. It was weird. It was like

160
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 6: for the first half of the fourth quarter, I was

161
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 6: with stan Van Gundy, like, why is Tatum not touching

162
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 6: the ball? They're scared to get him the ball? Jimmy

163
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 6: Butler was guarding him. They were going away from him, absolutely,

164
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 6: and then Tatum started touching the ball and every turnover

165
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,239
Speaker 6: was disgusting. He said it after the game. They sped

166
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 6: me up and he looked completely sped up. No field

167
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 6: goal attempts in the fourth quarter for Jason Tatum. He

168
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 6: did go to the line six times, So those are

169
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 6: some shooting possessions. But the three turnovers were backbreakers. They

170
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 6: were disgusting. Every one of them was like, have you

171
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 6: played before, Have you played against a defense who actually

172
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 6: wants to get out on you. It was impressive by

173
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 6: this by the heat, the way they were out on

174
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 6: shooters all night long, only gave up twenty nine attempts

175
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 6: for the Celtics. They're trying to shoot fifty three is

176
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 6: a game, Yeah, and it was clearly a part of

177
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 6: the game plan for Miami to take away the three

178
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 6: point line, and Tatum seemed to be the guy that

179
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 6: had affected the most.

180
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, and old man Al, you don't see him with

181
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 4: a turnover like that that you mentioned. That was a

182
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 4: real weird one. Jalleen Brown Jason Tatum back to their

183
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 4: old ways of losing the handle. Ten turnovers combined for

184
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 4: them and in the biggest of moments there at the end,

185
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 4: and combined as I mentioned that, that's smart, bad play

186
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,839
Speaker 4: to leave Caleb Martin in the corner. You've got your

187
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 4: painting Pritchards, you got your Derek White, who Jimmy Butler

188
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 4: likes going against. But those guys should be standing up

189
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 4: to Jimmy one on one. They have to, because Jimmy

190
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 4: is going to pick you apart, as he said multiple times.

191
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,559
Speaker 4: And why I've sort of been I guess Jimmy pilled

192
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 4: here with the idea that he wants to play the

193
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 4: right way and past everybody. He does, you double him,

194
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 4: He's just going to find everybody. That's what happened in

195
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 4: this game.

196
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 3: What's wild about the Celtics and these like late game turnovers,

197
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 3: these collapses down the stretches, like this is not like

198
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 3: a new team to the postseason. I mean, they've been

199
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 3: in the conference finals five times in seven seasons with

200
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 3: this core, So they're not a young team unaccustomed to

201
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 3: the bright lights. That's what's the perplexing part. And now

202
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 3: they're zero to four in playoff games in this postseason

203
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 3: run in close games seven points or less. I know

204
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 3: it's usually a little smaller than that. But yeah, they

205
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 3: don't have a great record when these games are very

206
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 3: very close, and a lot of it is just a

207
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 3: poor shot selection or these turnovers are backbreakers. I thought

208
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 3: they played pretty good basketball at times in this game.

209
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 3: I mean in that second quarter the Celtics ripped off

210
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 3: that fifteen to three run. They were aggressively going to

211
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 3: the net. They were living at the paint. Al Horford

212
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 3: had like a spin and taking it inside. It was

213
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 3: like everybody was going Marcus Smart had the ten assists,

214
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 3: he had zero turnovers. He was throwing some crazy lobs

215
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 3: to Robert Williams, and they were up sixty six to

216
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 3: fifty seven at the half. And then Tassi said it

217
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 3: that third quarter it was wild. The forty six points,

218
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 3: forty six old, and it felt like they did not

219
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 3: miss the Miami heat.

220
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, they got hot, forty six points on twenty five possessions.

221
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 4: But boo one point eight four points per possession. A

222
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 4: coronary man, John Schuman. So you come down the floor

223
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 4: and you're scoring base two points each shot. Some of

224
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 4: them were just scorching hot. Some of them they come

225
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 4: out of the locker room just believing and a big

226
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 4: plays from just guys that it didn't have incredible seasons.

227
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 4: Kevin Love couldn't hit shots, hit that step back three

228
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 4: instead of going on a fast break back. Strus as

229
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 4: I said, created his own shot. Had an incredible quarter.

230
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 4: What did the end? We had thirteen points in that quarter,

231
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 4: five shots, So guys that were struggling to find their way.

232
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 4: It is incredible how they've all fit in perfectly. The

233
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 4: Joe versus Spo battle, as Jared Weiss called it, Joe

234
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 4: Mizula versus Eric Spolstra. I know people are just railing

235
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 4: on Joe Mizula. Maybe call a timeout a little bit

236
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,559
Speaker 4: earlier in that forty six point third quarter. Sure, yeah,

237
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 4: I mean they they ended up getting whatever it was,

238
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 4: the TV timeout and then they still stalk after they

239
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 4: were just they use those sigmouts to stop the momentum.

240
00:11:55,360 --> 00:12:00,719
Speaker 4: The momentum was just never stopped period. The Celtics. This

241
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 4: is what they do. I mean, we know it at

242
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 4: this point. So it's it's just something we gotta expect.

243
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 4: I guess from game to game to game. It is.

244
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 4: It's just strained though against the heat might not work.

245
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, the heat superpower is their attention to detail too,

246
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 3: I mean, and that sled by Spoe and Jimmy Butler.

247
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 3: There's no doubt, like theyre just seemed like they're so

248
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 3: locked in on every single possession, every you know, rebound,

249
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 3: every screen, every switch, whatever, you know, going from zone

250
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,079
Speaker 3: to man and stuff like that. Lowry had a big

251
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 3: second quarter too, when the when the Celtics were playing

252
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 3: really well, he had that atal run, the Kyle Lowry run.

253
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 3: I was screaming when he hit the second three in transition,

254
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 3: it was like, well he was feeling it. He had

255
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 3: thirteen and absolutely championship raptors Lowry there, and they were

256
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 3: big because they sort of kept them within the game.

257
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 3: But yeah, the explosion there in the second half. And

258
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 3: back to Bam. You're right. You said you thought he

259
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 3: was the second best player last night. The first four

260
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 3: minutes of this game, it was like time Lord versus Bam,

261
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 3: like it was all those two guys. But he finished.

262
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 3: Bam did with twenty points on nine to thirteen shooting,

263
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 3: eight rebounds and six assists. And you said, TK like

264
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 3: him operating as their point guard. You can bring it up.

265
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 3: He actually fought Kevin Love once for a defensive rebound

266
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 3: that I think Love ultimately got but you can tell

267
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 3: Bam not only he wanted it, not to do with

268
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:17,079
Speaker 3: the box score anything.

269
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 4: It was like, I'm.

270
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 3: Bringing it up, let's let's go. Yeah, exactly, But great

271
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 3: game from him, and they need they need three more

272
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 3: Bam games like this to win the series. Like he

273
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 3: to me is like a bit of the lynchpin here

274
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 3: for them ultimately going to the finals.

275
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 6: I think he did not have a good series against

276
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 6: the Celtics in the conference finals last year. I think

277
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 6: he had average fifteen points per game. He had a

278
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 6: thirty one point game, which I mean, if you're averaging fifteen,

279
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 6: do the math, that means basically single digits in a

280
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 6: couple of the other games out there.

281
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 5: But I don't know.

282
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 6: It definitely threw the Celtics off seeing Bam be so aggressive,

283
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 6: and you're right, man, he was fighting the entire night.

284
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 6: He fouled the guy laying on the back trying to

285
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 6: grab a rebound. It was like, what is Bam doing.

286
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 6: It was like when Jimmy was out. He was almost

287
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 6: going a little bit too overdrive at some points. But

288
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 6: you could tell it paid off in the long run,

289
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 6: and I just think it was such fools gold for

290
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 6: the Celtics. The way they were dominating in the paint

291
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 6: in the first half ain't Celtics basketball. That's exactly what

292
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 6: the Heat wants you to do. If Robert Williams has

293
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 6: scoring that many points, that means your other guys aren't shooting,

294
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 6: and you'd rather have every other guy shoot if.

295
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 5: You're the Celtics.

296
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, they went from forty to twenty one points in

297
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 4: the paint from half to half. Yeah, it was strange

298
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 4: seeing Robert Williams being leading their offense. It's totally true.

299
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 4: And yeah, BAM's taking this matchup personally. You said he

300
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 4: did have a bad Conference finals, and it's odd with Bam.

301
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 4: You'll see waves of him not being aggressive. Happened in

302
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 4: this game. Started the game, as you said, hot went

303
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 4: away from that third quarter, always back. I mean, you

304
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 4: looked like Nikola Jokic bringing up the ball at times.

305
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 4: But Bam can do that. So if yeah, he finds

306
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 4: another level, as he said, I'm way better than I

307
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 4: was twelve months ago, way better then this. Obviously this

308
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 4: result can be way different.

309
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 3: Bim had a highlight that wasn't in this game too.

310
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 3: Threw down a windmill so the whistle. Yeah, Yeah, like

311
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 3: well after the whistle, but it was like, oh, showing

312
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 3: off the hops there, and he was involved in winning

313
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 3: jump balls. There were two jump balls late in this

314
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 3: game after scrums. I mean there felt like there were

315
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 3: six guys on the floor. That was fun, and the

316
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 3: Heat won both of those. I can't remember the result.

317
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 3: I don't think they scored on on one of them,

318
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 3: but uh, you know, obviously getting to those tying them

319
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 3: up in him winning them. Any other notes from this one?

320
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 3: I guess the question for you guys is like any

321
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 3: panic here from the Celtics, Like.

322
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 5: No, what be in here?

323
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 3: Done that?

324
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 5: No?

325
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 6: They lost game one against Philadelphia, came back from one,

326
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 6: came back from down three to two. Last season, they

327
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 6: were down two to one against Miami, won a game

328
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 6: seven on the road, down two to one, and three

329
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 6: two against Milwaukee last season, won a game seven at home.

330
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 6: You could say that the series doesn't start until the

331
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 6: Celtics trail in the series.

332
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 5: They got the heat right where they want to.

333
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 6: Maybe heat played or the Celtics play their best when

334
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 6: they are backs against the wall. And now it kind

335
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 6: of is Game two as a must win. You can't

336
00:15:55,800 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 6: go down two heading to the other barn if you will.

337
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 6: But I saw that Kevin Pelton said that home teams

338
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 6: that lose game one in a playoff series win the

339
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 6: series fifty one percent of the time. So a one

340
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 6: to zero lead is nothing, that's.

341
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 4: An incredible step. While if you win game one of

342
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 4: a seven game series just in general, you win it

343
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 4: eighty percent of the time. Right, But I guess at

344
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 4: home it's the better team who loses at home, so

345
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 4: they can come back. Yeah, just so many boner mistakes

346
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 4: from the Celtics in this game, which happens with the Celtics.

347
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 4: You mentioned Marcus Smart giving it to Robert Williams over

348
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 4: and over and over and over again, and then he

349
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 4: just did it too much when their guys just weren't

350
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 4: being stars. I know, Jalen Brown ends with a good line,

351
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 4: and Tatum had mostly a good game until the end,

352
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 4: but it's just so weird to see all that talent,

353
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 4: all that start him not take over in the fourth

354
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 4: quarter or do something with all that talent in the

355
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 4: fourth quarter. So you can't be you can't be worried

356
00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 4: because this is what they do.

357
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 3: But he thinks this makes any switches here. Moving into

358
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 3: Game two, in terms of starting lineup or who gets

359
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 3: more minutes and like, is that see you later? Pritchard

360
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 3: does he ever have Grant Williams to go? I'm not sure.

361
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 6: Pritchard should be out of the lineup, and I think

362
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 6: Grant Williams should be in the lineup. I guess he's

363
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 6: played against Bam out of bio since they were in

364
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 6: high school together. He knows him and probably it was

365
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,119
Speaker 6: actually pretty solid on him if I'm remembering correctly. Last season,

366
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 6: I think Derek White earned some more minutes. Eleven points

367
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 6: last night, four for six from the field, hit three threes.

368
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 6: I said before Game one, I think this is a

369
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 6: series that the Celtics probably should go small for and

370
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 6: I think that that's likely going to be the case

371
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 6: going forward.

372
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a weird move to see Peyton Pritchard

373
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 4: out there. I don't really get it with all their depth.

374
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 5: Jimmy loved it.

375
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, those few possessions. I mean he was good

376
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 4: at going against Derek White too. He was playing him well.

377
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 4: But yeah, Jimmy was just feeling it. But Derek White, Yeah,

378
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 4: he's he's in that good Derek White mode. He's he's

379
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 4: got the blinders off, he's ready he's focused.

380
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 3: At least Missoula was showing some emotion there. Frustrated throw

381
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 3: a clipboard during this game?

382
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 6: Yeah, he said, it's not about play calling, so I

383
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 6: don't need to write anything down.

384
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 4: Oh there you go.

385
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 6: It's a blowout, man, This is a blowout coaching wise,

386
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 6: it's not even close.

387
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 2: Uh.

388
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 5: The guy said they won three or four quarters in

389
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 5: the post game last night. Who cares?

390
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 3: I didn't catch that.

391
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, cool man, he got blown out in the one

392
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 6: that mattered.

393
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 5: He's just bad.

394
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,640
Speaker 6: He's Uh, they're gonna regret getting him an extension before

395
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 6: even getting done with your.

396
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 3: One, right, possibly any other random notes from game one here?

397
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I don't think just the starting lineup.

398
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 4: I don't think change. I don't think it really matters,

399
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 4: to be honest with the Celtics like it does matter

400
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 4: more about the way they play and getting them going.

401
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 4: I mean, I think you're gonna see more Brogden. Even

402
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 4: though he was he was busy asking Kyle Lowry how

403
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 4: his family is, which was very nice. You don't hear

404
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 4: that very often a basketball for And he knows that

405
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 4: Kyle Lowry has sons because he said, yeah, how's the family, boys? Man?

406
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 4: I got girls. I got girls. Uh crazy here in that,

407
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 4: but that's why people love Malcolm Brogden. Nice guy.

408
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 3: So you think, then what Trey's saying is that maybe

409
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 3: not starting lineup, but we could see the subc going

410
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 3: smaller more against the heat here and maybe an advantage

411
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:16,160
Speaker 3: White Brockden.

412
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 4: Horford's due. Horford's due every shot he takes. I think

413
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 4: he's due. U Yeah, less. I think Pritchard'll be out.

414
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 4: Whether Grant gets some minutes.

415
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 3: He doesn't played at all, very rarely, very rarely. I

416
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 3: have a random note. Dide Reggie Miller at one point

417
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,640
Speaker 3: say I was the Borg of basketball.

418
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:40,360
Speaker 6: Did he say that like I thought of basketball?

419
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 3: I wrote it down. I thought I heard him say

420
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,679
Speaker 3: that like cyborg, I think, but I shortened it to

421
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 3: which I didn't know was a thing you could do.

422
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 3: Let me know in the stream team if Reggie said that,

423
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 3: but he meant, I know what he did say a

424
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 3: couple of times, about eight times.

425
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 5: The butler did it.

426
00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 3: The butler did it?

427
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 5: Who didn't wrench the butler?

428
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 3: Oh my god.

429
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 5: I liked when his mind was blown that they ran floppy. Actually,

430
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 5: I think.

431
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 3: That's when the board came up. I should have got

432
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:10,119
Speaker 3: it was around that time.

433
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 6: Yeah, maybe so, maybe so. I was also excited to

434
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 6: see Jalen Brown's hand when opened up.

435
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 5: Called it.

436
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 6: I said, there will be a time this year did

437
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 6: postseason where that hand opens up, and it finally did

438
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 6: last night. I can't believe Jaalen Brown wears his mask

439
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,479
Speaker 6: when he's sitting on the bench ship. That was crazy

440
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 6: to me when they looked over and people like you

441
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 6: gotta commit, gotta commit to the bit he banged hisl woked.

442
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I guess he's a borg. Yeah, that was weird. Yeah,

443
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 4: I wonder how the hand. I mean, it is his

444
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 4: shooting hand, and he just he just seemed to be

445
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 4: a little bit off even though the shot was there.

446
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 4: As you said, I guess that's the end of my notes. Obviously.

447
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 4: Kevin Harlan an incredible Jimmy Frickin' but it was so funny,

448
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 4: perfectly timed. You dropped a freakin' a freaking the game.

449
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 6: That's awesome. He was ready, He was so ready, Yeah,

450
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 6: he was. He was mentioning a lot of football players

451
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,439
Speaker 6: last year. The dose a little too much. We know,

452
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 6: you call NFL games man, but Kevin Love threw a

453
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 6: full court outlet passes he often did.

454
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 5: He says, looking like Tua, a right handed Tua from

455
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 5: the scenes.

456
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 6: You know, when you gotta elaborate twice, it's maybe a

457
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 6: bit of an overreach. But what is Jimmy Butler's best nickname?

458
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 6: Jimmy Freakin' Butler, Jimmy Butler or Jimmy Buckets or I

459
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 6: love playoff Gym.

460
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 3: It makes me laugh so much because every time I

461
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 3: see somebody say playoff jim it's the gift of him

462
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 3: with the cowboy hat from I Believe the Bubble when

463
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 3: he was walking off once. Yeah, yeah, these are I

464
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 3: don't know. Do you have an answer to that? What's

465
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 3: your favorite?

466
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 4: Right? Honestly, I didn't know if it was playoff Gym

467
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 4: or playoff Jimmy. But I'm good with playoff jim It's

468
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 4: it's great.

469
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 3: I like, man oh man, Himmy Butler is great. But

470
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 3: then there's a lot like we're putting Himmy on everybody, right, Yeah,

471
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 3: like it's not just his No, what was the third

472
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 3: one you said, Jimmy Buckets the original? Yeah, I do

473
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 3: like that too, full name Jimmy G.

474
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 5: Buckets and the G stands forget.

475
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

476
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 5: Stacy king Man they're all good.

477
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 3: That's a good poll, right there. Those are four amazing nicknames.

478
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 6: All right, I'll get it up, guys that It's like

479
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 6: he's got four great nicknames and so many good reactions. Yeah,

480
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 6: we're underrating Jimmy Butler. Ah man, that's fun to watch

481
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:30,400
Speaker 6: him play basketball.

482
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 3: Well, the Heat became just the fifth team in NBA

483
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 3: history to open a postseason with road wins in each

484
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 3: of their first three series. You got the eighty one Rockets,

485
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 3: you got the eighty nine Bowls, you got the ninety

486
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 3: nine Knicks, which makes sense because that's what the Heater

487
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 3: trying to do here as an eighth seed get to

488
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 3: the finals. Got the twenty one Hawks. I'd forgotten about

489
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 3: them winning game ones on the road in their first

490
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 3: three series, and now you got the twenty three Heat.

491
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 3: Only the eighty one Rockets in the ninety nine Nicks

492
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:00,439
Speaker 3: advanced to the NBA Finals and neither of them won ship.

493
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 3: But yeah, making some making some history here going in

494
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 3: there winning game one on the road. And that makes

495
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 3: a lot of sense to me. Because you have Eric

496
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 3: Spolstra as your coach. You have the best coach, no doubt,

497
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 3: in the NBA, one of the greatest coaches is probably

498
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 3: a whole time when it's all said and done, though

499
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 3: you never had won a Coach of the Year, it's

500
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:19,199
Speaker 3: still perplexing. But like obviously having his team ready and

501
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 3: the game plan of what they want to do against

502
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 3: that team of their opponent when they go into their barn. So, yeah,

503
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,479
Speaker 3: what a win here, but we should have a hell

504
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 3: of a series. And isn't the other thing like after

505
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,479
Speaker 3: a game one road win, the home teams are just

506
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 3: like continually winning game two. Yeah, so it feels like

507
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 3: a must win for the Boston Celtics. But if if

508
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 3: it continues the way it's been going, they'll take care

509
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 3: of business in their next game on Friday Night.

510
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 4: That's right now, Friday Night.

511
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 3: There you go. Anything else, guys. From the Jimmy Butler

512
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 3: thirty five point performance there, I was a.

513
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 4: Little surprised by that Jason Tatum travel call where his

514
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,119
Speaker 4: toe did.

515
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 5: It did one?

516
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 3: I didn't think so in real time, and then you

517
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 3: see the replay it comes.

518
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 4: Up because he didn't complain, so that would make sense

519
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 4: that he did come up. Yeah he did.

520
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 6: It looks so awkward too that I feel like you're

521
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 6: gonna get called for it. More often than not, even

522
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 6: if maybe the rubber on your shoe stays on the thing.

523
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, it just looks like a travel.

524
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, but I think that's what tas To saying,

525
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 3: is like, it looks like a travel. But did he

526
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 3: come up?

527
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 4: But he does?

528
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 3: It comes up off the ground, Caleb Martin screaming at him.

529
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:30,120
Speaker 6: Man Martin had some nice moments they did. They got

530
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 6: crazy Jelly.

531
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, smartin Lowry, Vincent and then their stars and Jimmy

532
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 3: and Fair always and even Love hitting a couple of

533
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 3: threes there for sure, doing some work on the boards,

534
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 3: entertaining game. Fun stuff there from Miami Heat taking game one.

535
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 3: You let us know what we missed, any takeaways, any

536
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 3: random notes from game one of the Eastern Conference Finals.

537
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:51,959
Speaker 3: We'll take our first break, and when we come back,

538
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 3: we gotta talk James Harden all right. Very funny comment

539
00:24:55,160 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 3: here from director Jay Robertson in the stream team. He says,

540
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 3: I'm convinced Spoe could pull me off the side of

541
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 3: the street and coach me to get ten, four and

542
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 3: four in a playoff game. How does he do it?

543
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 3: It does feel like that way at times. If you

553
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 5: People just like saying Jimmy.

554
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, it love it.

555
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 3: It is fun to say for sure. All Right, we

556
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 3: got some news to break down here. First, one from

557
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 3: Chris Haynes at Bleacher Report slash TNT says James Harden

558
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 3: intends to decline his thirty five point six million dollar

559
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 3: player option to become an unrestricted free agent this summer

560
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 3: in order to secure a long term deal. He wants

561
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 3: a four year contract, and sources say a hardened will

562
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:07,239
Speaker 3: only entertain suitors that present a competitive roster and the

563
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 3: basketball freedom for the star to be himself.

564
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 4: What do you think, yipes, if you're the Philadelphia seventy

565
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 4: six ers, I think you're you're in a bad spot.

566
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 3: It's not a yip, not a yikes.

567
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 4: Okay, oh yeah, capital piece.

568
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 3: I think so yipes is worse than yikes.

569
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, y yikes is scared? Whoa yipes is a

570
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 4: little discuss, not disgusted, concerned? Yeah yeah, bad taste in

571
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 4: the mouth, that type of thing, pipes yikes. James aren't

572
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 4: signed a contract last year with the Rockets to take

573
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, the Rockets the seventy six ers to take

574
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 4: a cheaper deal to try and help them get their guys.

575
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 4: That was last year and now he's not ready to

576
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 4: opt into the second year because he wants basketball for freedom.

577
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 4: He just dropped forty in two games last series. They

578
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 4: had a three two series lead. He was ready to

579
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:15,120
Speaker 4: go to the conference finals. He doesn't want this perfect scenario.

580
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 4: He wants to be able to shoot every time. I suppose,

581
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 4: isn't that what it means? I mean what you're a

582
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 4: number two on it with a guy with an MVP,

583
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 4: you got to shoot a lot. I understand they took

584
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 4: the ball out of his hands there in Game six,

585
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 4: they gave it to MAXI probably peeved about that, but

586
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,360
Speaker 4: that's also because he had five bad games beside those

587
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,360
Speaker 4: two games. I just think from a seventy six point

588
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 4: of view, I go yipes, because he was your second

589
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 4: best player and now he doesn't want to be there.

590
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 4: They gave him all the responsibility in the world other

591
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 4: than passing the ball to Joel Embiid. So it's a

592
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 4: tough scenario. If you're Darryl Morey, you want to lock

593
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 4: in for three or four more years of something you

594
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 4: just signed for two years cheaper contract because he was

595
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 4: ready to be a number two, but now he doesn't

596
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 4: want to be a number two that gets to shoot

597
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 4: a lot. Very confusing spot, very tough spot, I think

598
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 4: for Darryl Moore.

599
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, one pay cut, then it's pay up, and honestly, honestly,

600
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 6: I'm fine with it. From Harden's point of view, like

601
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 6: he did give up a little bit of money, so

602
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 6: pay the man. But he's gonna have a hard time

603
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 6: finding a place where you can get a competitive roster

604
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 6: and also basketball freedom because competitive roster. You're looking at

605
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 6: the Sixers. They lost in a game seven against a

606
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 6: team that's in the conference finals. It's not the worst

607
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 6: thing in the world to look terrible, and the Sixers

608
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 6: won the three games that Harden played like a normal player.

609
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 5: The four games they lost. He played terrible the fifth

610
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 5: game like that.

611
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 6: The third win for Philadelphia is really all they need,

612
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 6: like twenty points and ten rebounds. It's awesome when he's

613
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 6: going for forty five points, but it's cooler when he

614
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 6: just gets like a normal stat line. They just want

615
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 6: normal James Harden. Another competitive roster he's been linked to

616
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 6: is the Suns. Just the hilarious thing basketball freedom. It's

617
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 6: basically the Rockets. It's gonna be hard to find a

618
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 6: place where Jimmy Vault, where James Harden is the number

619
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,719
Speaker 6: one guy on a team and also the team has

620
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 6: a competitive roster that's trying to win a championship.

621
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 5: I don't think that team exists right now, right.

622
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 4: Right, He's gonna shoot less with the Suns way less?

623
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 5: Oh yeah yeah?

624
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 3: Is he using is hard in using this Rockets rumor,

625
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 3: this idea of going back as some sort of leverage

626
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 3: here to get a better deal from the Sixers for

627
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 3: him and for Morey and that organization to pay him

628
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 3: more money.

629
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 5: Is that?

630
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 3: Is that what's going on? Because he does have them

631
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 3: in a tough spot. I talked about it the other day.

632
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 3: Even without factoring in Harden's next contract, the Sixers have

633
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 3: one hundred and seventeen million dollars in guaranteed salary on

634
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 3: their books for next season against a projected cap of

635
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty four. That's not a lot of

636
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 3: difference there, one thirty four to one seventeen. And you

637
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 3: know they still have decisions to make Paul Reads restricted.

638
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 3: You got Nyang and Shake Milton Jalen McDaniels, and there's

639
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 3: there's this so like, I just like this these quotes,

640
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 3: this basketball freedom and all that and a competitive roster

641
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 3: that it's perplexing because.

642
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 4: It sounds like under armor shirt. I don't get what

643
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 4: the term means. It doesn't make any sense to me,

644
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 4: and I don't know trickle down what it means for

645
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 4: Tyrese Maxey, who is going to want to sign a

646
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 4: contract extension at some point. I mean, he's still getting

647
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 4: paid his rookie deal to cheat money. And if Harden

648
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 4: comes back, he'll continuously be the number three option. And

649
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 4: I bring up Maxi because if he's in that number

650
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 4: two option, if he's the point guard for the pick

651
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 4: and roll options with Joel Embiid, I understand they'll be

652
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 4: worse at first, but at least they won't be locked

653
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 4: into James Harden for four years and unhappiness after every

654
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 4: single year. I like, that's my concern. The vibes can't

655
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 4: be great here overall, so it's a tough spot for more.

656
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 4: Lots of talent in James Harden. But I don't know,

657
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 4: They're just going to go through this season after season

658
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 4: after season.

659
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 3: This is the weird thing. James Harden played very well

660
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 3: this season, like really well during the regular season for

661
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 3: the Sixers. He led the league in assists, He averaged

662
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 3: twenty one points per game. Excuse me, shot thirty nine

663
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 3: percent from three. He had these monster playoff games, and

664
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 3: then he had duds over the final three fourth quarters

665
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 3: of the Celtics series Games five, six, and seven. James

666
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 3: Harnden's score in the fourth quarter.

667
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 4: And those three they got rid of Ben Simmons.

668
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, but thirty two minutes the guy didn't score in

669
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter of the biggest games of the season years.

670
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 4: You're right, though, it could be leverage, He's it could

671
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 4: be that's possible.

672
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 6: That's I think there's definitely a leverage factor because the Sixers.

673
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 6: They can't let Harden walk. They really can't right now

674
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 6: because there's no way to replace them. The changes for

675
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 6: the Sixers, it feels like would be maybe letting Harden walk,

676
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 6: which I think is kind of a bad idea just

677
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 6: from an asset management stance, and then trying to find

678
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 6: something to do with Tobias Harris' contract. That's the that's

679
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 6: the next chip outside of James Harden that I think

680
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 6: is definitely in play. But you can't just let a

681
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 6: guy walk that's that good, like Harden, despite the fact

682
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 6: that he flamed out in the playoffs once again.

683
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,120
Speaker 5: You gotta make it to the playoffs.

684
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 6: You don't want to let your second best player just

685
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 6: walk away when you're trying to keep Jowelling beat around.

686
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 6: But it's only one more season for him bed there

687
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 6: in Philadelphia, so it should be fine.

688
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 3: Darryl moriy is enamored with James Harden. Well, he's not

689
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 3: gonna let him walk, right, I mean, I'm sure he

690
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 3: wants to get him once again on a better deal

691
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 3: to help make the roster and try and put pieces

692
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 3: around these two guys. But I think this is hard.

693
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 3: And if you you know we're going with Chris Haynes reporting,

694
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 3: it's like no, no, no, I already did that. I

695
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 3: already gave you the deal. It helped us get what

696
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 3: Tucker and House. Yeah, and we went out in the

697
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 3: second round. So now you pay me, Yeah, Well, I

698
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 3: would not want to be in that position. I wouldn't

699
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 3: want to be paying him here for a four year deal.

700
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 3: But you make great points like they can't replace him

701
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 3: unless it's like just okay, it's all Tyrese Maxey, it's

702
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 3: way more of a workload for him, and then and

703
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 3: then try and pivot that way. But he did play

704
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 3: welder in.

705
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 4: The Sason and if you believe Darryl Moury in his

706
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 4: exit interview yesterday, he's got playing bees ready lined up

707
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 4: behind James Harden. If James Orton decides to go somewhere

708
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 4: else is that leverage? Harden has all the leverage here

709
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 4: at this point, tough spot.

710
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 3: Our next headline is still about the seventy six Ers.

711
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 3: JJ Reddick is the betting favorite to become to become

712
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 3: the Sixers head coach. This is from a bet online

713
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 3: here they have the odds. I think we have the

714
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 3: graphic that our guy Jerome put together plus three hundred.

715
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 3: Reddick the top of the leaderboard to be the Sixers

716
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 3: next head coach. Now we got Crazy Mike D'Antoni, Monti Williams,

717
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 3: Nick Nurse, Jay Wright, College legend, Mike Budenholzer, and Frank

718
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 3: Vogel down there at plus eight hundred. There was many

719
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 3: other names that you could put some coin on if

720
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 3: you wanted to, but I cut it off there, shaking

721
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 3: your head.

722
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 4: We bet online, just stealing money from people. I think

723
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 4: Jay Wright's gonna be the next coach of the seventy seconds.

724
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 4: Let me put some money on that.

725
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 5: Uh.

726
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 4: It's just it's crazy to see JJ Reddick in this

727
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 4: spot where we talked about him having an interview with

728
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 4: the Toronto Raptors. Just seemed like him getting his name

729
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 4: into the into the media circle, into the atmosphere even

730
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,720
Speaker 4: more so than it is. And now he's the lead

731
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,319
Speaker 4: for the odds here. This is weird to me. I

732
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 4: guess that's just where the money's going, because all these

733
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,360
Speaker 4: other names are really really good names, but there's just

734
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,280
Speaker 4: too many of them. And JJ Reddick is a different

735
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,399
Speaker 4: type of name. But I don't see him coaching the Sixers.

736
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 4: It's impossible.

737
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 3: Coaches old teammates, yeah'd be great.

738
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 4: I mean it's Derek Fisher, Jason Kidd kind of move,

739
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 4: I guess. I mean kid Fisher was the Knicks, not

740
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 4: the same kid, not exactly the same. This is unprecedented magic,

741
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 4: I mean going way back.

742
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:43,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, not bad.

743
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 3: What do you think TK of this list of names

744
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 3: here in the odds and all that I.

745
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 6: Would take a chance on JJ Reddick if I'm a team,

746
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 6: I don't necessarily know.

747
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:53,879
Speaker 5: I'm with you task.

748
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,839
Speaker 6: I don't necessarily know that JJ wants to get into

749
00:34:55,880 --> 00:35:00,720
Speaker 6: coaching right away. He talked to maybe went and Richardson

750
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 6: about the prep work that went into getting ready to

751
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 6: play in NBA games. And now, obviously JJ Reddick isn't

752
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 6: going through the physical part of it, but he was

753
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 6: really committed to his offseason workouts. So you know it's

754
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 6: going to be a stressful situation for him being a

755
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,919
Speaker 6: first time head coach. I don't know if he would

756
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,360
Speaker 6: like to have a little bit more chill existence after

757
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 6: his retirement. Get his name up. Obviously people are interested

758
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 6: in him, but a new voice. He's young, He's got

759
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 6: relationships with guys that are already in the NBA. He

760
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 6: knows the game pretty well. That's more interesting me to

761
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 6: me than like Mike D'Antoni, who is seventy two years old.

762
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 6: How many retreads could you possibly have? If you're Philadelphia.

763
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 6: Manny Williams is doc rivers once again. Jay Wright a

764
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 6: little bit interesting as a Philadelphia guy coaching at Villanova,

765
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 6: But who knows how college coaches coming to the NBA go.

766
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,320
Speaker 6: Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. But Steve Kerr was

767
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:56,400
Speaker 6: a broadcaster, he's a pretty good coach, all right.

768
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,359
Speaker 3: This next piece of news here to pivot away from

769
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 3: the Sixers. Steve Kerr talked to the media and had

770
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 3: some things to say about the Warriors struggling to build

771
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 3: trust after the Draymond Green Jordan Poole incident back in

772
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 3: the preseason.

773
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 5: Quote.

774
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,399
Speaker 3: Some of that chemistry was lost this year, for sure,

775
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 3: There's no hiding from it. The incident with Draymond and

776
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 3: Jordan at the beginning of the year played a role

777
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,239
Speaker 3: in that. It's hard for that not to impact a team.

778
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,839
Speaker 3: Anytime some trust is lost, it makes the process much

779
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,719
Speaker 3: more difficult. And there was some trust lost. That's as

780
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 3: blunt as I can be. Steve Kerr addressing this for real,

781
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 3: I mean, I know it came up throughout the season,

782
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 3: but him like really really like saying, yeah, this had

783
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 3: an issue. This was an issue that we struggled with

784
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 3: sort of all year.

785
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,919
Speaker 4: The way they addressed it during the season was how

786
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 4: the hell did that get out? They were more upset

787
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 4: yet the video was publicized from a practice that was

788
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 4: leaked internally, That's what they were upset about. And so

789
00:36:55,840 --> 00:37:00,200
Speaker 4: this proves true here. This tracks because right now, now

790
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 4: looking back, he's basically saying, I'm not so much upset

791
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 4: about Draymond Green punching Jordan Poole, but the effect that

792
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:10,839
Speaker 4: it had on our locker room, combined with it being leaked, Yeah,

793
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 4: it just hurt us. So I like the bluttness now.

794
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 4: And I mean it was something that we all thought

795
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 4: at the time. I guess maybe because it wasn't talked about,

796
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 4: we thought, well, maybe they could get over it. But

797
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,760
Speaker 4: you know, that, combined with some bad habits, not building

798
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 4: a great bench to start that obviously proved to be

799
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,880
Speaker 4: a non championship team. I'm a little more surprised with

800
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 4: the last week guy saying like Curry like this just

801
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 4: wasn't a championship team. We just weren't there. I guess

802
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 4: he knows better than the rest of us, But you know,

803
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 4: I was starting to believe it at some point that

804
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 4: they had possibility of getting there.

805
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 6: Two things stuck out to me reading this. Number one

806
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 6: is that the margin for error for the Warriors was

807
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 6: so much smaller this year compared to obviously the Dynasty teams,

808
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 6: but even last year's teams.

809
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,240
Speaker 5: There was a lot of controversy. Kevin Durantz.

810
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,240
Speaker 6: Last season in Golden State they still made the finals.

811
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 6: There was a lot of controversy his ultimate season. They

812
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 6: won the finals that year and afterwards David West said,

813
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,239
Speaker 6: we dealt with some things internally. When you guys find

814
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 6: out about that, y'all are gonna trip. I'm serious, y'all

815
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 6: are gonna trip. It's a testament to the type of

816
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 6: people these guys are and how tied together we were

817
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 6: as a group, and how committed we were to winning.

818
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 6: It was all vets back then for the Golden State Warriors.

819
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 6: In the twenty two season when they won be Elitza

820
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,839
Speaker 6: was around Otto Porter Junior Pool played a big role

821
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,240
Speaker 6: for the first three rounds of the series. Gary Payton,

822
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 6: the second was there in seventeen eighteen when they won

823
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 6: back to back Iguidala Livingston, Javail, David West, guys who

824
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 6: had been around the NBA for a long time. They

825
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 6: tried the two timeline things and it obviously didn't work.

826
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,720
Speaker 6: You had Pool fighting with Draymond Green before the season started.

827
00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 6: You had Jonathan Kaminga pouting through the playoffs. James Wiseman

828
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:46,840
Speaker 6: was traded. The young guys completely lacked focus and you

829
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 6: could tell, and that was a huge problem for the Warriors,

830
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 6: and a preseason fight derailed their season because these are

831
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,440
Speaker 6: all young guys who were trying to make their name

832
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,359
Speaker 6: in the NBA rather than trying to get the ring

833
00:38:58,560 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 6: to cap off their career.

834
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 4: A good call.

835
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, they also are Kerr. I should say within this

836
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 3: you know, media postseason conference, he talked about like Kaminga

837
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 3: obviously needing to get better and how he didn't play

838
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,720
Speaker 3: him a lot in the postseason. He talked about Pool,

839
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 3: how he was like last year, he was like one

840
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,399
Speaker 3: of the core six. I think is the term corps

841
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 3: was Kerr excuse me was using about him and how

842
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 3: he struggled Again, was that a hangover from this Draymond

843
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,359
Speaker 3: Green incident? Maybe a little bit? He talked about bringing

844
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 3: Draymond back, and Draymond's talked a little bit about this,

845
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,240
Speaker 3: like maybe he's not moving off of the Golden State Warriors,

846
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 3: but the idea of rebuilding the trust. He talked about

847
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 3: how he loves Draymond, how brutally honest you can sort

848
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,800
Speaker 3: of be with him, he can take a critique because

849
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,879
Speaker 3: he understands the truth and all that. And spinning off

850
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 3: of this, there is this whole Bob Meyer situation where

851
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 3: it's feeling more and more likely that he's not going

852
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 3: to be the GM still of the Golden State Warriors.

853
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 3: There's no deal in place, and even Kerr was like,

854
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 3: you know, someone's asking him about his contract or next contract,

855
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 3: because I think he has one more year left as

856
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 3: a coach and then all these decisions I need to make.

857
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 3: And he was like, well, we got to figure out

858
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 3: Bob Myers first because he is the one that will

859
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 3: make all these Yeah.

860
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:14,320
Speaker 4: So according to they're not even close on a contract

861
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 4: between Bob Myers and the franchise. That was So that

862
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 4: was Steve curse penultimate year on his contract.

863
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 3: I believe it was.

864
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 4: I just want to say pen ultimate because Trey I

865
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 4: got one in to that seamlessly worked it in there.

866
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 4: Kevin Durant's penultimate season.

867
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 3: I said it for Survivor.

868
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,239
Speaker 4: Said it for Survivor. Well, you know, we always say

869
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,320
Speaker 4: for the second last episode of a series, but I

870
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 4: thought that was the only way you could work it in.

871
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 4: Trey worked it in there.

872
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:38,840
Speaker 3: That was perfect.

873
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 4: This is our pen ultimate show of the week.

874
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,720
Speaker 3: I'd say Thursdays if you don't count no buffs.

875
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no duck yeah. Playback. Yeah, we'll be playback

876
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 4: in this week. You guys. You guys like your league

877
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:51,280
Speaker 4: final four, We'll be playback.

878
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 3: We'll get to that in a second. The other thing

879
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 3: he did say was about how curted about Klay Thompson

880
00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,319
Speaker 3: needs to come in and shape. Yeah, and now that

881
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,279
Speaker 3: he's like a little removed from the injuries and all that,

882
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 3: that he needs to come in to camp physically and

883
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 3: mentally locked in, which he was pointing out that he

884
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,839
Speaker 3: really wasn't this year. And again, you know, some of

885
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 3: that's injury hangover, but yeah, he illustrated that. And really,

886
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,800
Speaker 3: because I forgot. The Warriors started pretty damn slow again.

887
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, poorly, very poorly. Yeah, five hundred for a while.

888
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 4: Blame the bench. I mean, the starters were awesome. They

889
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 4: were the best starting five for a long time. They

890
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 4: are getting older, so that's a good point. It's it's

891
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:33,839
Speaker 4: interesting about Clay going into his last season of his

892
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 4: contract at forty plus whatever it is.

893
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 3: All right, Well, let's take a break and when we

894
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,840

900
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 3: exactly tied right now. Playoff gym not coming through for me.

901
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 5: That's all right, you know, it's a it's a seasonal nickname.

902
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 5: That's right, that's true.

903
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 3: Lot let's get to tweet of the night.

904
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:21,319
Speaker 4: Tweet of the Knight. Wow, I have.

905
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 3: Got a basketball tweet of the night for you here. Okay,

906
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 3: because we sort of slipped it in yesterday talking about

907
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 3: the draft lottery results and the Blazers jumping up and

908
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 3: grabbing the number three pick and what do they do

909
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 3: with it? Well at JJ Maples fifty five underscore, mst

910
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 3: had a great question, would you rather have a core

911
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 3: of Shaden Sharp and Perny Simon's and then either Brandon

912
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 3: Miller or Scoot Henderson plus the hall that a Damian

913
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 3: Lillard could net you in a trade. Or would you

914
00:42:56,280 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 3: rather have the current Blazers team plus whatever the number

915
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 3: three pick gets you in a trade? Huh? That is

916
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 3: a fun one there from Jason. What do you think?

917
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 5: TK?

918
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,959
Speaker 3: What would you rather have? I know it's tough because

919
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 3: it's like, what are you getting for the number three

920
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:15,920
Speaker 3: p are.

921
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 5: You getting for the number three pick?

922
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 3: And then we have an idea what a Dame package

923
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:21,359
Speaker 3: would get you if we look at all these other

924
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 3: you know, star players and the Hall of Picks and

925
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,399
Speaker 3: some decent players yep, that return to your team.

926
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:26,839
Speaker 4: What do you think?

927
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 6: I don't want either, to be quite honest, I want

928
00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 6: Damian Lillard.

929
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:33,320
Speaker 5: I ain't trading Damian Lillard.

930
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 6: If I'm Joe Cronin, I don't want to be the

931
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,240
Speaker 6: guy that sends away the best player in three decades

932
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,759
Speaker 6: from Portland. He can stay there as long as he wants,

933
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 6: and if it goes poorly at the end, so be.

934
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 6: It happened to the Timberwolves. Kevin Garnett's still a legend

935
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,399
Speaker 6: in Minnesota.

936
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:47,880
Speaker 4: I don't know.

937
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 6: I just have a hard time trading the franchise superstar

938
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 6: to tank. But I also don't want Simon's back, definitely

939
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:58,360
Speaker 6: don't want Nurkic back. I would trade Sharp if somebody's interested.

940
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,400
Speaker 6: They can't come back with the same team, plus just

941
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,879
Speaker 6: trading the third pick. I think they can probably get

942
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 6: a good player for the third pick, and I think

943
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,399
Speaker 6: that would certainly help the Blazers, But they can't come

944
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 6: back with like a tiny back court. Once again, it

945
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 6: clearly doesn't work if Nurkic is the backbone of the defense.

946
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 5: They got to try something different.

947
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:16,880
Speaker 6: So there is a third path here where Lillard stays

948
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,359
Speaker 6: around and they actually make some moves to improve the team.

949
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,880
Speaker 3: Right, Okay, So the idea maybe taking that third pick,

950
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 3: pairing it with assignments one of your other players, be

951
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:30,440
Speaker 3: it Sharp, yep, and moving that to get to get

952
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 3: a player that could help dam and the rest of

953
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 3: the team. There is that option.

954
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 4: What do you think I'm too nostalgic too. I would

955
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 4: struggle to trade away Dame, even though he's going to

956
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:44,800
Speaker 4: be thirty three this coming season. I would be exploring

957
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,240
Speaker 4: every possibility of trading the number three pick and seeing

958
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 4: what it gets you. And retooling. I mean, the smart

959
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,040
Speaker 4: move might be to, yeah, tear it down, but.

960
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 3: It's been working for teams that have done it. Is

961
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 3: the crazy part, Like you know, the Jazz moving Gobaart

962
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 3: and Donovan Mitchell and then still being like a competitive

963
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 3: team at the least. We saw what happened with the

964
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 3: Brooklyn Nets. I know it's a little different situation, but

965
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,320
Speaker 3: what they got back looks really promising in Michale Bridges

966
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 3: and Cam Johnson and all their picks, you know, restocking theirs.

967
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:18,319
Speaker 3: And then we see like teams like the Wizards just

968
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 3: stick with Bradley Beal and just continually have the eighth

969
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 3: and ninth seed every single year. So yeah, it's I mean,

970
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:26,800
Speaker 3: I get what you're saying, TK. I think it's always

971
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:31,280
Speaker 3: a difficult decision, but sometimes those are the tough decisions

972
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 3: you got to make for the better of the franchise.

973
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 3: And you know, you'd get a hell of a package

974
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 3: back for Damian Lillard right at the level he just

975
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 3: played at. It would be huge. I don't know, like

976
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:43,879
Speaker 3: it's gonna be obviously the three four with the pick

977
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 3: swaps and all that, and then young players and maybe

978
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,960
Speaker 3: even still a solid player to go then with your

979
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,640
Speaker 3: Sharp and your Simons and whatever the number three pick is.

980
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,279
Speaker 3: If it's Brandon Miller or Scoot.

981
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 5: He'll be thirty three at the start of next season. Lillard.

982
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 5: Will you think he brings back a humongous package.

983
00:45:57,880 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 4: Ye?

984
00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:02,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I Durant, No, you're not Durrant style, but not

985
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 3: much off of that.

986
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,319
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think we that was the golden age that

987
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 4: last year where we saw the trade for Rudy Gobert

988
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 4: and de Jonte Murray and Donovan Mitchell and Durant to

989
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 4: a degree, I think it would drop off a little

990
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 4: bit the type of package because it doesn't work for everybody.

991
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 4: In terms of just turning a franchise around. We saw

992
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 4: what's what's going on here with the Timberwolves. I think

993
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:29,240
Speaker 4: it would be a little bit less with with Dane.

994
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, guy scored thirty two points per game, seven assists,

995
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 3: five boards. I know he's getting older, but he just

996
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,920
Speaker 3: had like one of his best seasons ever in sixty

997
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:42,040
Speaker 3: games or just close to sixty. Yeah, keep them, but

998
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 3: then you got to completely, like Trey said, like retool

999
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:48,920
Speaker 3: around him because this doesn't work, especially the Simon's Lillard backcourt.

1000
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:52,440
Speaker 3: That doesn't work. You know, they tried with the Grant

1001
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 3: move and he's a solid player, but he's not moving

1002
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 3: the needle all that much. That's I don't know. I

1003
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:01,360
Speaker 3: guess I wouldn't. I'm saying as I am leaning towards

1004
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,879
Speaker 3: the idea of, like, you move Damian Lillard right now,

1005
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,520
Speaker 3: because if you don't, if you wait two more years,

1006
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:07,959
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what, it's only going to go down

1007
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 3: his value in terms of whatever package you're getting back.

1008
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 3: But maybe they pair it with like there's a lot

1009
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 3: of raptors, rumors, throat floating around the idea of like

1010
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,719
Speaker 3: go get an og with that number three pick, and

1011
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:22,120
Speaker 3: then Siakam's name is there too with other players, So

1012
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,040
Speaker 3: now it's that is that a sharpen assignments and a

1013
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:24,719
Speaker 3: pick and like that?

1014
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:28,360
Speaker 4: I mean, that's the kind of the kind of rotation

1015
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:32,319
Speaker 4: around Damian Lillard that would make him a winner. I know,

1016
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 4: the type of player. Yeah, absolutely, let's play ball the

1017
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:37,799
Speaker 4: AI types you know around Dame for.

1018
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 3: Sure tonight Game two Western Conference Finals, just quickly here?

1019
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:45,399
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, well got basketball every night here. Any

1020
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:47,319
Speaker 3: thoughts heading into this one? Denver taking care of business

1021
00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 3: in game one? What do you expect here from from

1022
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:51,120
Speaker 3: Game two.

1023
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:53,760
Speaker 5: First question is who the Lakers start.

1024
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 6: The Dennis Schruder experience starting small did not work. The

1025
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:00,840
Speaker 6: Nuggets beat up on the glass in Game one. It

1026
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:03,719
Speaker 6: changed in game or in the second half when Ruy

1027
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,640
Speaker 6: Hatchamura got a bunch more minutes on Jokic and Anthony

1028
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 6: Davis was the roamer behind him. I wonder if it

1029
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 6: will be Ruy hot Chimura who gets the start or

1030
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:14,239
Speaker 6: Jared Vanderbilt. It could see it going either way, but

1031
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 6: I imagine Ruy is the guy who ends up closing.

1032
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,240
Speaker 5: The game for the Lakers.

1033
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:20,880
Speaker 4: But I don't know.

1034
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 5: The other question I guess is who does he come

1035
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:23,359
Speaker 5: in for.

1036
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 6: Most likely it would be Shrewder out of the starting lineup,

1037
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 6: but you might want to bench D'Angelo Russell. He had

1038
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,320
Speaker 6: a bad one. Maybe he can get hot off the bench.

1039
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 6: The question for the Nuggets is how they counter the

1040
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 6: Anthony Davis romer minutes. Maybe Brucey b plays some more,

1041
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 6: and maybe it's just Jokic handling the ball in a

1042
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 6: pick and roll and bringing Aaron Gordon up to be

1043
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,879
Speaker 6: the role man. And then you're putting Anthony Davis into

1044
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,440
Speaker 6: those actions with nobody hanging out back there. So there

1045
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 6: are some counters to be had and there are some

1046
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,880
Speaker 6: adjustments to be made, and we'll see first time the

1047
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 6: Lakers have trailed in the series so far this playoffs.

1048
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:57,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think Darwin Ham's got to start somebody else,

1049
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 4: whether it's for Shreuter, D'Angel Russell, somebody to try and

1050
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,440
Speaker 4: slow down Yokic. I think that person will be on Jokic.

1051
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 4: It's not so much in that half court where they're

1052
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:08,480
Speaker 4: gonna slow Yokich down. That's impossible, but to slow him

1053
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:10,360
Speaker 4: down just bringing the ball up. You just can't have

1054
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:13,880
Speaker 4: Jokic dribbling the ball up to his chest level and

1055
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,800
Speaker 4: coming down and starting every play. I think you're gonna

1056
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:19,759
Speaker 4: get a little bit of a not ninety four feet

1057
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,880
Speaker 4: but something like fifty feet of Jared Vanderbilt on Jokic

1058
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,480
Speaker 4: to start this game. I don't think it's going to

1059
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,080
Speaker 4: be really, could be really, but Trey brings up a

1060
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 4: good point, could be really finishing the game. But not

1061
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:33,120
Speaker 4: one guy can slow down Yolkic. But if you combine

1062
00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:34,920
Speaker 4: those two, I think they could be the two headed

1063
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 4: type to slow it down again at half court, like

1064
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:41,919
Speaker 4: just not letting Yokic pass wherever he wants to pass,

1065
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:46,279
Speaker 4: and I know they ignored Jared Vanderbilt on offense. The

1066
00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 4: Nuggets were smart. They just just let him go do

1067
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,880
Speaker 4: whatever he wants. In's only his ten minutes. But I

1068
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:56,080
Speaker 4: think you're you win if you're the Lakers and you

1069
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:59,080
Speaker 4: can make this somewhat of a half court game. That's

1070
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:00,840
Speaker 4: just the biggest thing. If you slow it down a

1071
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:03,360
Speaker 4: little bit. If Jared Vanderbilt just comes in to be

1072
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 4: that twenty minute guy to slow him down at the

1073
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 4: beginning of the games, that's a huge win. If they

1074
00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:12,959
Speaker 4: slow it down just to make it a more pinpoint less,

1075
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:13,759
Speaker 4: up and down game.

1076
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 3: Game two tonight ESPN of the Western Conference Finals. You know,
