44
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,120

45

46
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 5: No one's just talked about the Kings for sixteen years.

47
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 5: In the playoffs, they get an extra forty minutes.

48
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 3: Good point, but good stuff. I really enjoyed those. I

49
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 3: caught all of Wednesdays.

50
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 2: And then a few there bits and pieces of Mondays

00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 2: and Tuesdays.

52
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, marathon was too quick to catch any of it.

00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, no slowed down there didn't.

54

Speaker 4: I yeah, we tracked.

55
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: It turns out Boston Marathon it's tough, not easy. I

56
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 2: thought I could win it, but I had some crazy weather.

57
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw the one clip I

58
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 2: shared with the torrential downpour at.

59
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 4: The end that was fun or your feet wet?

60
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 2: Oh god, yeah, it was raining at the start of

61
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 2: the race. I got a black second toe. It's just

62
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 2: completely black nail.

63
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 3: It's like painted it.

64
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 2: It's quite painful, but I had a blast and shout

65
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 2: out to all the volunteers and spectators and everybody, all

66
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 2: the race officials.

67
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 3: It's it is so much fun.

68
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 2: You ever get a chance to go see it, even

69
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: to take in the elite runners men's and women's, you

70
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 2: should just try and pick.

71
00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 3: Your where it doesn't rain.

72
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: I thought you were gonna if you ever have a

73
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 1: chance to go run it, well go do it. I

74
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: was like, oh, I don't think I'll ever have that. Sure,

75
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: the older you get, the easier it gets to qualify

76
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: and to run. I've noticed that the older you get

77
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: you can run a lot faster.

78
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 5: You ran, You ran way faster than Zadano Chara six seven.

79
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 3: That's not a bad time for a big, big dude.

80
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: Well he did it in skates.

81
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 4: Very impressive.

82
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 3: Well, I'm pumped to me back.

83
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: It was great to uh just sit down in front

84
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: of the television last night, watch a bunch of NBA

85
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 2: games and then to sit here and fire off the

86
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:33,239
Speaker 2: takes with you guys.

87
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 3: Were they the most exciting games?

88
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: Some of them were not. But this first one will

89
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 2: start with no, John Morant, no problem. Grizzlies tied up

90
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 2: with the Lakers one one.

91
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 3: Oh.

92
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 2: Your big takeaway from this game at to here in Memphis.

93
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 4: Well, it was funny.

94
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 5: A lot of the comments in the games and post game,

95
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 5: a lot of chatter. I know, we'll get to Dylan Brooks,

96
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 5: but I thought this quote from Austin Reeves was the

97
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 5: most telling of the game. He said they were desperate

98
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 5: and they played harder than us.

99
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 4: End quote.

100
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 5: Straight up, that's what happened, although at the beginning of

101
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 5: the game it did seem like the Lakers kind of

102
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 5: had the Grizzlies number.

103
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 4: They were up five to.

104
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 5: Four at the beginning of the game, and that's when

105
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 5: the Grizzlies turned it on. They started running faster than

106
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 5: the Los Angeles Lakers. They just got out ahead of them.

107
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 5: Bain started hitting shots. Although his line isn't all that sexy.

108
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 5: Had ten first quarter points to just turn it when

109
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 5: things didn't look all that good. When the Lakers were

110
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 5: just in control a little bit, and they started beating

111
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 5: the Lakers down the floor, Xavier Tillman hit a layup,

112
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 5: and Bane hit a layup, and Tilman again hit a layup,

113
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 5: and then Tilman stopped Davis and then.

114
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 4: Scored on Davis.

115
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 5: And if you know, you go back and watch game one,

116
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 5: the Lakers were actually out running the Grizzlies. That wasn't

117
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 5: supposed to happen in this series. They won the fast

118
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 5: break point battle by nine in the first game, and

119
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 5: it was a lot closer in the second game. And

120
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 5: if Tilman is beating you down the floor, Reeves's quote

121
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 5: is exactly right. If Xavier Tillman, who's in there just

122
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 5: to junk up and do the little things, that's beating

123
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 5: you down the floor, they were working harder than them.

124
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 5: They got out to that third quarter lead, Dylan Brooks

125
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 5: did some trash talking and all that, and that lead

126
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,239
Speaker 5: was just too big for the Lakers to overcome. Because

127
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 5: this was the Grizzlies night. They hadn't lost two games

128
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 5: in a row at home all season long, and they

129
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 5: weren't going to let that happen, and they were outworked.

130
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 5: Just back to Dylan Brooks, he sealed it in the

131
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 5: fourth quarter. They're up eight, but Tilman got the offensive rebound.

132
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 5: That Man had twenty two points and thirteen rebounds in

133
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 5: that offensive rebound, his fifth of the night. He sent

134
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,679
Speaker 5: it out to Brooks for the three, made it eleven,

135
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 5: and it was over that Tilman line Man. That is ridiculous. Yeah,

136
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 5: and I'm not respecting disrespecting Xavior Tilman because x was

137
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 5: my X factor coming into this series, Xavier Tillman. But

138
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 5: when he's outscoring Anthony Davis, something's wrong. I didn't expect

139
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 5: him to outscore Anton Davis once in this series. But

140
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 5: the fact that he he did a good job on

141
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 5: twenty two points in ad had thirteen, the Grizzlies just

142
00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 5: weren't going to lose this one.

143
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 4: Really, they did outwork the Lakers.

144
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 2: And we know they're good even if John Moran isn't

145
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 2: playing the last two years. I think the record's twenty

146
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 2: seven and eight without their superstar in the lineup. So

147
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 2: you know you've got tyas Jones. I love the pub

148
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: he's getting here, and everybody's just like locked in that

149
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: he is the best backup point guard in the league.

150
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 3: He's that's all anyone ever says about him.

151
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 4: I know, I heard highest paid, last highest paid backup guard.

152
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 4: They realize that.

153
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, But he had a you know, a good game

154
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 2: at least in Satan and Tom. I thought he had

155
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 2: great chemistry with Xavier Tillman, the sort of two man

156
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 2: game they have going. But everybody contributed. Were you shocked

157
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 2: though from this result?

158
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: TK, No, not really, because two major no dunk's concepts

159
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 1: came through for the teams here. Number one Lakers slackitude.

160
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: That's what happened. You heard it from basically everybody. You

161
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: even heard it from Darvinham in the huddle when he's

162
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 1: saying it's first to four, not first to one, calling

163
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: him out for Sam, you're not giving the proper effort here.

164
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: Five turnovers in the first quarter for the Lakers. This

165
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: is going to be a series that is won and

166
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 1: lost in transition. These are two of the best transition

167
00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: teams in the league, So you got to take care

168
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 1: of the ball. But more importantly, guys, band dudes, even

169
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: more so Grisbean dudes. They are very good at this.

170
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: They're used to playing without Job. They have a different

171
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: look to the team. Tillman was great. John Conchar was

172
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: great with the energy. Blocked Anthony Davis at the rim

173
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: for dunks two times. Great effort from him. David Roddy

174
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: was out there hitting threes. And then when John Moran

175
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: is off the court, it allows the Grizzlies to play

176
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: more shooting. Canard is on the on the floor quite

177
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: a bit. Bain is a great shooter as well. That's

178
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: two tough guys to guard. You have Tilman set the screen.

179
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: That means Ad it's pick your poison. Is he gonna

180
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: step out onto a forty five percent three point shooter?

181
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: He kind of has to, and if he does, it's

182
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,559
Speaker 1: a role for Tillman. So big shout out to Tilman.

183
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: A career high in points, most rebounds he's had all season.

184
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: That was probably even the bigger number in this game.

185
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: The way they were able to keep Ad off the

186
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: glass and dominate in an area that they usually.

187
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 3: Do it was great.

188
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: Grizzlies d was completely on point. I fought with three

189
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: minutes left, they're up eight. The Lakers are trying to

190
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: get back into it. They're la had just scored multiple

191
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: points just lobbing the ball into the inside, throwing it

192
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: to the rim. It was either Lebron or Ad catching

193
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: it for an easy, easy layup. This time, though, they

194
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: pressure the ball made the pass impossible to get to

195
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: a d end up being a shot clock violation. All right,

196
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: I actually it was a three pointer for the Lakers,

197
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: and this was a night that they could not hit threes,

198
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: so great defense all night against Anthony Davis made it

199
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: tough to catch. Then when he did, there was three

200
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: or four guys just waiting for him, knowing that the

201
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 1: Lakers couldn't do it from three.

202
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, Ad and Di'angelo Russell combined and shoot sixteen, So

203
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 2: excuse me six for twenty five eighteen points total between

204
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 2: those two guys A d and Russell after the great

205
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 2: opener there in that series where they combined for forty one.

206
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, they were just they were all over Ad. It's true.

207
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 5: They were just ready to throw multiple bodies at him.

208
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 5: And he started the game off well defensively, blocking a

209
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 5: couple of times early in that first quarter, but just

210
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 5: didn't seem like they all had the legs to battle

211
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 5: this Grizzlies team that wasn't gonna let it happen.

212
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 2: I like that the Grizzlies had an answer at the

213
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 2: end of the third quarter two because Ruey sort of

214
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,199
Speaker 2: caught fire in the third he was hitting some tough shots.

215
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: They had cut that big, big Grizzlies lead. I think

216
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 2: it was twenty at one point. It was down to

217
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 2: a very reasonable six point score at that point was

218
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 2: seventy three to sixty seven. But the Grizzlies finished that

219
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 2: quarter on a ten to four run, and a lot

220
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:17,679
Speaker 2: of it was those three pointers, like you said there,

221
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 2: Trade Canard hit one off a dime from a big

222
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 2: man I think that one was Jaron Jackson Junior. And

223
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 2: David the Body Roddy he hit one as well there

224
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 2: off of a tillman I believe passed, So both coming

225
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 2: from their big men. That was just like, you just

226
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 2: need that little breathing room to get into that final

227
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 2: quarter where they were still having to sort of stiff

228
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 2: arm the Lakers and Lebron trying to take over and

229
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 2: get them back in it. But they did a great

230
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 2: job of answering the inevitable Lakers run. And we've seen

231
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 2: that in all these playoff games already. I mean these

232
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 2: big leads and then the team comes back and it's

233
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 2: whether or not you can sort of sustain it in

234
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 2: the end, even if you sort of give back up

235
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 2: that lead to get it back, like we'll get to

236
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 2: in the Nuggets Wolves game there. But that was a

237
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 2: great answer. And we'll see here if John Morant plays.

238
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 2: Now in Game three, he was standing all game. It's

239
00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 2: like he had standing rom only tickets. Maybe he got

240
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 2: some cheap in a seat, but he had that weird

241
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 2: sort of rap.

242
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,199
Speaker 3: There on his hand, and that's a big rap. Yeah.

243
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 2: I would expect we'll see him at some point in

244
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 2: this series, and it could be as early in games three,

245
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 2: because I don't think they play for a bit.

246
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's totally true.

247
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 5: I think if you you mentioned all those guys hitting

248
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 5: shots and David Roddy and Kennard. The fact that Jared

249
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 5: Jackson Junior came back to Earth a little bit after

250
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 5: his thirty one point performance in Game one probably to

251
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 5: be expected. But they won a game where Jame Jackson

252
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 5: Junior scored eighteen points and John Morant wasn't playing. That's

253
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 5: the Grizzlies, m that's what they what they've done. So

254
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 5: it's not totally surprising.

255
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 4: There's always that discussion, which is the dumbest discussion in

256
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 4: the world.

257
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 5: Are they better without John Morant? In the regular season

258
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,199
Speaker 5: they can win a lot of games without John Morant,

259
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 5: But in a postseason matchup if he if he doesn't

260
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 5: play and the Lakers are gonna play, they have they

261
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 5: have a higher ceiling. They're gonna play better in Game three,

262
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 5: especially with what Dylan Brooks said. They are gonna They're

263
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 5: gonna have a big Saturday. That's just the way it is.

264
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 5: We're gonna have a back and forth in this series.

265
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 5: It should go long. But I'm scared for the Grizzlies

266
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 5: on Saturday.

267
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 2: Because of mainly what Dylan Brooks the saying within the

268
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 2: game and then after the game.

269
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, a lot of it, a lot of it, Like

270
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 5: the Lakers are gonna bounce back there in front of

271
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,679
Speaker 5: their home, full home crowd for the first time in

272
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 5: a long time in the playoffs because of COVID.

273
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 4: So yeah, and that guy, Dylan, come on, Dylan, I

274
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 4: get it on the floor, but he's poking the beard

275
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 4: a little too much.

276
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 3: So he does Pope bears now, especially old ones.

277
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, old old He even said, man I would

278
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 1: have loved to be able to guard him against Cleveland

279
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: and Miami. This isn't hard enough for me. It's basically

280
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: what Dylan Brooks is saying. And he's right. Lebron's never

281
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: scored forty on him.

282
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, the fainting part of this.

283
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 2: Forty, that's the bar, Like that's not good for the bar, Like,

284
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 2: don't be wrong. Like he obviously tries his ass off.

285
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 2: You know, he gives up a lot of height to Lebron,

286
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 2: but he's he is strong and he and he won't

287
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 2: back down, and he did good job hit shots when

288
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 2: you need to. He loves to bark, like Dylan Brooks

289
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 2: looked at this as a win because he sort of

290
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 2: got under Lebron's skin enough that Lebron was, you know,

291
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 2: barking back to some extent like that to Brooks is

292
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 2: like got him. He talked trash to me, Yes, yes,

293
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 2: and so now I've got him exactly where I want.

294
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 2: But then yet after the game he o poking the bear.

295
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 2: He has scored forty on me, Like, like, how much

296
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 2: would you bet on Lebron's score forty in Game three?

297
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 5: In all honesty, I think the odds are probably like even. Yeah,

298
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 5: like yeah, plus one hundred and five. There's probably a line.

299
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 3: Out there too.

300
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 5: The quote was I don't care, he's old, you know

301
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 5: what I mean? And that had our Joe Varden, who

302
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 5: covers who's covered Lebron for a long time in the

303
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:48,439
Speaker 5: Athletic Slack channel, just start typing away real quick, saying

304
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 5: I have never heard this before in my decade of

305
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 5: covering this. Somebody's got to get on that. We got

306
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 5: to write a story about this. And then he went

307
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 5: on to say I only respect guys that dropped forty

308
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 5: on me, and I wish, I wish.

309
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 3: I think that is the most the same line I've

310
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 3: ever heard.

311
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 4: Why did you say that forty?

312
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 3: Like this is that's the bar?

313
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 2: Oh my god, come on, come on, that's that's ridiculous

314
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 2: to be. I love Ziller's idea, though. If Lebron, let's say,

315
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 2: scores forty plus in Game three, a majority coming on

316
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 2: Dylan Brook's head, will Lebron show up at postgame media

317
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 2: availability with like a cane or a walker? Will he

318
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 2: come in in a diaper?

319
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 4: Now?

320
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,559
Speaker 3: What will he do? What old man move? Will Lebron do?

321
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:36,839
Speaker 3: To really stick it to Dylan?

322
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: He should play, He should wear like gigantic, baggy jeans

323
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: and like that huge shirt backwards hat, carry a PlayStation

324
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 1: into a game, like that photo of him from his

325
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: rookie season where he's like, you know, he was a

326
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: young man who still traveled with a PlayStation in between games.

327
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 3: Hey, you want to Cleveland Lebron? You got him?

328
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 5: Tonight Dylan breaks out his flip phone that he used

329
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 5: to take a photograph of w W. Yeah, that could happen.

330
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 5: He didn't even stop there, He just went on and on.

331
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 5: He said, I wish I guarded him when he was

332
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,319
Speaker 5: playing on Cleveland and Miami because that was the best Lebron.

333
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 5: And he basically said, if he wants to play the

334
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 5: one on one battle or if he wants to be

335
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 5: out on the sideline shooting the basketball, we'll see.

336
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 4: So he got specific. This guy is just a three

337
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 4: point shooter. He doesn't want to come in the lane.

338
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 5: There's going to be a lot of physicality right now

339
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 5: Lebron is getting ready for Saturday. That's just a call

340
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 5: out for one of the greatest ever.

341
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 2: This Brooks is saying he believes he can sort of

342
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 2: wear down Lebron over the course of the series because

343
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 2: of his age. You know, all these little bumps here

344
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 2: and there, try and get under his skin, get him flustered,

345
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 2: get him mad, get him like obviously just shooting on

346
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 2: the perimeter. That's that's Dylan Brooks what he thinks he

347
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 2: can pull off here.

348
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the problem with Dylan Brooks is that.

349
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 4: Although he likes.

350
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 5: His teammates like him. Yeah, I mean the bravado is

351
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 5: holding true. I think the problem with all his outfits

352
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 5: are is that he takes his shirt off and Lebron

353
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 5: has seen him with this shirt off, and we've seen

354
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 5: Lebron with this shirt off, and there's a there's a

355
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 5: muscularity discrepancy. I think Lebron is comfortable going against that bot,

356
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 5: is all I'm saying.

357
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 2: Maybe instead of the PlayStation or the cane or anything,

358
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 2: maybe he pulls up with the skateboard backwards, red hat

359
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 2: music band on his shirt. That would be a Lebron

360
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 2: like move music band and drops like a how do

361
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 2: you do fellow kids or something like that. When he

362
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 2: shows up to the postgame, meati availability that he's going

363
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 2: to score forty one forty two points.

364
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: He has to now, Bro, Dylan Brooks, this is smart man.

365
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: Now Lebron has to score forty points or Dylan Brooks

366
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: wins yet again. If he doesn't score forty on him,

367
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: He's like, I don't care. He's old. He can't get

368
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: to forty. Challenge him every single time. Lebron's taken twice

369
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: as many three as free throw so far in this series.

370
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 5: Yep, Well, he was gonna have one game where he

371
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 5: drives in that game is game three?

372
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 4: Imagine?

373
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 3: Okay, any other notes from this one?

374
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 2: Did you enjoy Eagle dropping especially early when Desmond had

375
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 2: to go in as many Baine references as he.

376
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 3: Could references he possibly could. He dropped like three in

377
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 3: the span of like three minutes.

378
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 5: He said, Mark Jones, you can't get all the shine.

379
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 5: I gotta drop some lines. Eagle and Jackson are good.

380
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 5: Combo are good for the playoffs.

381
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 3: Anything else from this one? TK stinker from D'Angelo Russell.

382
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he was brutal.

383
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 1: Five points, two of eleven shooting, He had four assists

384
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: and three turnovers. Afterwards, he says, I'm not a point guard.

385
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: I'm a basketball player on this team. My role is

386
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: not point guard. Sounds frustrated. The kind of a guy

387
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: you might not be playing next season. That's that's certainly

388
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: a question mark.

389
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 3: I saw it.

390
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: Basically every Lakers fan responded to those quotes, with Kyrie

391
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: Irving coming to play point guard for LA next season.

392
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: But a solid game one for D'Angelo Russell, but just

393
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: as bad in game two, almost unplayable. So we'll see

394
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: how he fares in game three.

395
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 2: Did anybody ask Austin Reeves after the game about the

396
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 2: basketball that they played with in game two?

397
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 3: Did you see him during the game?

398
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: At one point He's on the side lines, and it

399
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,360
Speaker 2: appeared to me that Reeves is like, I can't control

400
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 2: the ball tonight. It's like slippery or something like that.

401
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 2: He made this motion of something with the ball, and

402
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,199
Speaker 2: I didn't see any you know, follow up quotes on that,

403
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 2: but he was seemed to He only had one turnover,

404
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 2: but you know, there were a couple instances there where

405
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 2: he just didn't have good control of it.

406
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 3: I was wondering. I was like, huh, one of maybe

407
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 3: a slickball, cold ball. What's going on there? But slickball,

408
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 3: cold ball?

409
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 4: We saw all things.

410
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 3: I noticed.

411
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 5: We saw a ball replaced in game two of the

412
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 5: Philly Nets series.

413
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, right, yeah, there came through, came over from

414
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,400
Speaker 4: the score stable, something's wrong with the primary ball. All right,

415
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 4: we'll keep an eye on.

416
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 2: That big win there from the Grizzlies. Obviously needed that one.

417
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,479
Speaker 2: Couldn't go down two to Ozho something like. It's it's

418
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 2: a crazy percentage of the road team taking the first

419
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 2: two games where they going to win the series. But

420
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 2: one one going back to La. You said Saturday, yes,

421
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 2: game one or game three? Excuse me, game.

422
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 3: One in La.

423
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 2: All right, next game, this one probably won't take long.

424
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 2: Bucks hit twenty five threes, beat the Heat one thirty eight,

425
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 2: one twenty two.

426
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 3: But you know y'all in this game. So no John

427
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 3: Morant for the grizz No Yiannis for the Bucks.

428
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 2: Both of those were sort of like last hourish announcements,

429
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 2: and you guys were definitely talking about it, and I

430
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 2: think a lot of people are, Like everybody thought Janis

431
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 2: was gonna play despite the back injury in Game one,

432
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,679
Speaker 2: but they elect to sit them and in the end

433
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 2: it didn't matter because they hit a bunch of threes

434
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: and they went to work inside as well.

435
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, John Morant, not a surprise. No Tyler Hero

436
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 1: not a surprise. They honest one definitely was. But it's

437
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: nice when you can just rely on brook Lopez. Twenty

438
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,879
Speaker 1: five points for him, twelve of seventeen from the field

439
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,639
Speaker 1: on a night when the Bucks hit twenty five threes,

440
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 1: brook Lopez only took one three pointer. It was a

441
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 1: lot like twenty twenty one Game five against the Hawks.

442
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: Giannis was out with his knee injury. They just went

443
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: to Brook time and time again, and he was able

444
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: to put the team on his back.

445
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 3: He scored thirty three that night.

446
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: Twenty five obviously last night set the tone and then

447
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 1: really like busted it open from the inside. They were

448
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: going crazy inside to the point where it just you

449
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 1: had to collapse. The three pointers were open for Milwaukee

450
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 1: last night, so you had some crazy shootings. That's four

451
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,719
Speaker 1: threes for Drew, four threes for Grayson Allen, three for Portis,

452
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: two for Middleton, six for Pat Connaton didn't even play

453
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,159
Speaker 1: in Game one. Dusted him off, he looked great, and

454
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: five for Joe Ingles. He even got a Javon Carter

455
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: one in there, just for just for laughs. But yeah,

456
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,439
Speaker 1: twenty five threes. You're gonna win every playoff game if

457
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: you make twenty five threes.

458
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, because that's the record.

459
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 5: Yes high they tied the playoff record with twenty five.

460
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 5: They owned the regular season record with twenty nine.

461
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:30,880
Speaker 4: It's nice for the Bucks.

462
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 5: Maybe that'll be uh yeah on their resume. One day,

463
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 5: the Heat hit some shots, they stayed in the game, which.

464
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 3: Is sixteen threes is not bad.

465
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the thing that they can go back home

466
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 5: with fifteen threes in the first game, sixteen threes in

467
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 5: the second game, even though it was a lot in

468
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 5: in garbage Then when they came back, they shot way.

469
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,479
Speaker 4: More free throws than the Milwaukee Bucks.

470
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 5: They hit more than half their shots against the Milwaukee Bucks.

471
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 5: This is a strange number. They shot fifty three percent.

472
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,359
Speaker 5: They had one hundred and twenty two points. That's a

473
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 5: big number against the Milwaukee Bucks. But a lot of

474
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 5: it was in garbage time. And oh yeah, yanister Tokompo

475
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 5: didn't play. They were the They're eight and a half

476
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 5: or nine point favorites going into this game without Yaniskopo.

477
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,679
Speaker 5: That's how drastic this series is. The discrepancy between these

478
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 5: two teams and the Bucks. It feels like, you know,

479
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,120
Speaker 5: when it comes down to fourth quarter minutes, the last

480
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 5: few minutes, it's it's just hard. It's just hard to

481
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 5: beat these champs. You saw it was it was twelve

482
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 5: point game, three minutes left. Cody Zeller had the ball

483
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 5: underneath and Drew Holidays just ripped it from him, just

484
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 5: ripped it. Those are the plays that you can get

485
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 5: really excited about as a Bucks fan. I mean, that

486
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 5: looks like their championship team when they just take it

487
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 5: from guys and yeah they can they can, they can morph.

488
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 5: They are a chameleon. They say, Yanice isn't out all right,

489
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 5: We're going to brook down low. It's just a different team.

490
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 5: And then Bobby Porters comes into the starting lineup and

491
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 5: plays awesome.

492
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, thirteen or fifteen for him.

493
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 2: I mean like it's like sort of the Grizzlies have

494
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 2: the benefit of having Tys Jones to at least slot

495
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 2: in there when no jump John Morant. You know, the

496
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 2: Bucks have Bobby Portis, who was fantastic, had an incredible season,

497
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:05,880
Speaker 2: obviously in the running for six Man of the Year.

498
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 2: He slots in and gives them thirteen to fifteen in

499
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 2: this game, and Drew Holiday it was special two twenty

500
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 2: four and eleven. I like shoes point two. Talking about

501
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 2: the idea of the threes made, he said, on the

502
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 2: surface its results like these from the first two games

503
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 2: that look like Exhibit A and B of the it's

504
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 2: a make or BIS league argument. And the Bucks twenty

505
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 2: five to three pointers tied the playoff record, like you

506
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 2: guys said, but they clearly did make an effort to

507
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 2: like just play big, play through Brook. Fifty two points

508
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 2: in the paint was their third most from Milwaukee in

509
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 2: the twenty total games without Giannis this season, so that

510
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 2: was a concentrated effort, and they went to him and

511
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 2: Bobby doing work inside too.

512
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 3: And yeah, that's a hell.

513
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 2: Of a lot of threes to go with a bunch

514
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,919
Speaker 2: of points in the paint in a dominant victory. The

515
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 2: score looks a lot closer than it was.

516
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,439
Speaker 3: I mean two, it's not even that close. But they

517
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 3: were up like thirty.

518
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 1: Yes, I think the Heat hit eight threes in the

519
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. That's pretty crazy. But layups still the number

520
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 1: one shot in basketball.

521
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:57,880
Speaker 3: It turns out.

522
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,640
Speaker 1: Best news from this game is that I think that's

523
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: the last game the Bucks are playing with their blue floor.

524
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 1: They've been playing on that since February. But I saw

525
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: dustin god See, chief marketing marketing officer for the Bucks

526
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 1: tweeted that the standard court should be back and ready

527
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 1: after games one.

528
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 3: And two, which is good.

529
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, okay, that's a weird court now that we've

530
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 1: seen it for like two and a half months straight.

531
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 3: It's so blue.

532
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 1: It is so incredibly blue that they can't even paint

533
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 1: the lanes. They're like, we can't add more blue in

534
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 1: the lanes, so it makes it look very plain on

535
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: the inside. I actually like the way the Bucks have

536
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,680
Speaker 1: incorporated blue into their color scheme, but not for this long.

537
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 3: Just be a little tasty. Just taste, yeah, just a taste.

538
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 2: Hey, do you like when you're watching these games now

539
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 2: that we're into, like the staggered times of the playoffs,

540
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,959
Speaker 2: the forty games and forty nights? Do you like when

541
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 2: they tell you the score of the other game you're

542
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 2: watching TNT and you get the bug up in the

543
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 2: top right hand corner NBA TV score.

544
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 3: You're nodding, I'm in you said.

545
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 4: No, I wish I could turn that score off.

546
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 3: So do I. I'd love if I had an option,

547
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,400
Speaker 3: because sometimes sometimes for the.

548
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 2: Sickos, you may want to be like, we're going to

549
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 2: watch this game, maybe speed through it a bit. But

550
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 2: on the other hand, when it's a thirty point blow out.

551
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 3: You're like, oh, okay, exactly right. Yeah, that's why.

552
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 1: That's why I'm like, if I see the score bug

553
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 1: up there and I see whoever trailing by thirty points,

554
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 1: I ain't tuning in on that, and I think, thank

555
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 1: you very much, because I'm gonna I don't care what

556
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: the score is. If it's a close game, I'm like, cool, yeah,

557
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:21,199
Speaker 1: I'm watching that.

558
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I like watching my games, like I like

559
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:30,159
Speaker 5: my Lacroix Pure. I want to start the game feeling

560
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 5: like it's a tire game, like anyone can win this

561
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 5: ball game, even if it says like it did during

562
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 5: that game that the other one was fifteen fifteen or whatever.

563
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 5: I just want to see that fifteen to fifteen happen.

564
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 3: You know, an option would be cool. I mean, I'm

565
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:45,640
Speaker 3: sure it's coming.

566
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 4: Because it comes on the NBA app.

567
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,640
Speaker 5: You have that option on the NBA app, whether it's

568
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 5: on Apple TV, whether it's on your iOS. You do

569
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 5: that's old school, you know, throwing the score up.

570
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 2: There, all different people on that one. I feel like

571
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,160
Speaker 2: that might be a that's like is this good question?

572
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 4: Right there?

573
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 3: Might as well make that a poll.

574
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 2: You like the bug the score bug for the other

575
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 2: games currently going on? Are you a fan of that

576
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 2: or not? Final game last night it was the Lake game,

577
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 2: Jamal Murray scoring forty bubble Murray there not in the

578
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 2: bubble any longer. Nuggets beat the Wolves for the two

579
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,159
Speaker 2: to lead. But this was a crazy game, as I

580
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 2: alluded to earlier, where Denver up huge monster third quarter

581
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 2: from Anthony Edwards and the Wolves actually have the lead

582
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 2: and then in the end Michael Porter junior, Jamal Murray,

583
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 2: you'll catch taking care of business and giving them the

584
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 2: two lead. Thoughts on this wild one.

585
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 4: Do we do moral victories in the playoffs? No? But

586
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:42,160
Speaker 4: was there one?

587
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 3: Well?

588
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:43,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the Wolves in there.

589
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 5: Forty point third quarter was something because the Nuggets were

590
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 5: still trying that third quarter. It wasn't done done and

591
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:53,160
Speaker 5: they scored forty points. That's a big number. They just just.

592
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: That is that is the lowest bar for a moral victory,

593
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 1: one good quarter out of eight.

594
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, Dylan Brooks is like the Wolves. I've never scored

595
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 3: forty point against tafore.

596
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, this is.

597
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 5: It's not It's not a moral victory for this series.

598
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 4: They're not.

599
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 5: They're not winning anything. They can win a game for sure,

600
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 5: but maybe going forward that third point, the third quarter

601
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 5: where they scored forty with Towns out on the perimeter

602
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 5: and Gobert and Conley doing their thing and Edwards also

603
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 5: contributing with Rudy Gobert, it was a realization that you

604
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 5: can't throw Karl Anthony Towns in the block against Yokich,

605
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 5: against this Nugets team. Pull him out and so they understand.

606
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 5: It took him six scores to really realize that. But

607
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 5: as soon as he's out of there, at least.

608
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 4: They were scoring.

609
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 5: Anthony, Edwards and Gobert were picking and rolling. Conley and

610
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 5: Gobert were picking and rolling, and they had a decent

611
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 5: quarter for the future. Maybe these guys can play together.

612
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,160
Speaker 5: They gave up everything for Rudy Gobert, so I think

613
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 5: that was something that's all you got really trying to

614
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:54,959
Speaker 5: make a story out of this.

615
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 4: It was.

616
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 5: It was a not only just like first half to

617
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 5: second half, but they were getting killed in like the

618
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 5: first eighteen minutes, just the Nuggets running it down their throat.

619
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,199
Speaker 5: It was eighteen ozho and fast break points through like

620
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 5: the first eighteen minutes of this game, and then it

621
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 5: turned out to be eighteen sixteen in the end of it,

622
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 5: because the bench for the Nuggets, they destroyed the Wolves, really,

623
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 5: so they came out of the third court at least

624
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 5: with some something. But the Jamal Murray thing for the

625
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 5: Nuggets where he took over is obviously a great sign.

626
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, first time in a playoff game, he scored forty.

627
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 3: In front of.

628
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 2: His own and actually is in front of fans, is

629
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 2: what I should say. Yeah, and he now has more

630
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 2: forty point playoff games and he does regular season forty

631
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 2: point games. Jamal Murray five to four is pretty well, yeah.

632
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 3: That is pretty wild.

633
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 1: But the Nuggets in the regular season are very much

634
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 1: and everybody eats kind of team. But I think in

635
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:50,959
Speaker 1: the playoffs you gotta have a guy who can put

636
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 1: the ball on the floor and score. So I'm not

637
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: terribly surprised that Murray would have more points when you

638
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 1: need your superstars to absolutely show up. And that, to

639
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 1: me is the story of this game. And the most

640
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 1: important thing that happened long term is that Jamal Murray

641
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,400
Speaker 1: looked incredible all of last night. They're gonna need him

642
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: to be Bubble Murray to have a chance it winning

643
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,879
Speaker 1: this championship here, and the way he looked yesterday is

644
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: exactly what they're looking for. It was awesome to see

645
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 1: him and Edwards going shot for shot basically down the stretch.

646
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 1: So shout out to the Timberwolves actually making it close.

647
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 3: In the third quarter.

648
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: But the fourth quarter was just pick and roll mode

649
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 1: for Denver. It was incredible the way they were able

650
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: to slice him up. It was a big big it'd

651
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 1: beat Jokic and Gordon, and it was an alley up

652
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: almost every single time because Karl Anthony Towns is just

653
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 1: so slow as a defender. Then when they would go

654
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: for a smaller, big pick and roll, it would be

655
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: Murray or Michael Porter Junior and Yokich and then it's

656
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 1: a wide open jumper for Murray or for MPJ because

657
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 1: go Beart was in drop. It was just like anytime

658
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,199
Speaker 1: the Timberwolves seemed like they might actually be making in

659
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: a game. In the fourth quarter, run a pick and

660
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: roll and you're gonna score. So very impressive from Denver,

661
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 1: and I thought a huge little run for Michael Porter

662
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: Junior to start the fourth quarter. He hit that four

663
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 1: point play on Tory and Prince. He had a tough

664
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 1: jelly in the lane. He had a couple of free throws.

665
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: They scored the first eight for Denver after Minnesota had

666
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: that big third, and he really turned the tide for

667
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: him because then Murray and Yokich check backed in and

668
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: it was over.

669
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

670
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,439
Speaker 2: Michael Porter Junior, We've said it before. He feels like

671
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 2: it feels like the X factor to the Nuggets, like

672
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 2: championship with what he steps up. And he had a

673
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 2: weird game right he at foul trouble, so he didn't

674
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 2: have a lot of minutes, but huge in the fourth,

675
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 2: thirteen of his sixteen coming in the in the final period.

676
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,719
Speaker 2: There fun ESPN stat. I'm sure you guys will get

677
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 2: this right away, but second game in NBA history in

678
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 2: which opposing players had at least forty points and sixty

679
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 2: three pointers in the same game. Can you tell me

680
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 2: the other.

681
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 4: Instance opposing players?

682
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we had Jamal Murray and we had Anthony

683
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 2: Edwards going for forty plus hitting six threes each. Only

684
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 2: happened one of the times, Jamal versus Donovan Mitchell. That's right,

685
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 2: Game six of the twenty twenty playoffs in the first round.

686
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 5: This was a weird one as Aaron Gordon had a

687
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 5: reverse tip dunk.

688
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was wild.

689
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 5: The ball went off the rim, he caught it and

690
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 5: reverse dunked it, and that weird second quarter sequence where

691
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 5: Chris Finch used his challenge. They won the challenge, but

692
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 5: Denver still had the ball because Aaron Gordon was able

693
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 5: to get the ball and they had one second on

694
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 5: the shalk lock and then they jokic hits a three,

695
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 5: so the challenge went off or not and then they

696
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 5: reversed dunked it on their ass, so it went from

697
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 5: fifteen to twenty after winning the challenge.

698
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 4: It was a weird, weird sequence and.

699
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 3: Then Wade gave it a nine on Twitter. I saw

700
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 3: yeah in the Cube cubes coming back, I could not

701
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 3: put I was so shocked the.

702

Speaker 1: Cube Celebrity Cube though cubeall okay, okay, that's nice cuban

703
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: in there. I don't think even in the Cube but

704
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: got together.

705
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 3: There's Shack.

706
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 2: I saw there's what's his wife's name? I'm drawn a

00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:53,960

Speaker 3: Hoops wait oh wait yeah Union.

709
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 4: That's it.

710
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 2: A couple other celebrities, a couple other celebrities in the

711
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 2: TBS world.

712
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 3: They got an impractical joker. They got out of those

713
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 3: guys sell anything else.

714
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: I got some weird notes on this one. I think

715
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: there was a fast break where Kyle Anderson outran Nikola

716
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 1: Joki that was like a steal. I think it was

717
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 1: when Minnesota actually first took the lead. That has to

718
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: be the slowest fast break in history. Though there is

719
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 1: like a great Chris Cayman Brad Miller one gotta do

720
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 1: like a split screen of that.

721
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 3: I gotta go, gotta go find that. That's sick of stuff.

722
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 5: Kyle Anderson is involved in every slow fast break in history. Ever,

723
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 5: there's another one where he was like walking up the floor,

724
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 5: but it's a fast break.

725
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: He was sprinting away from your kitchen look like on

726
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: this one, I was like, Oh, that's how you make

727
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 1: it look fast.

728
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 3: The other ones A question for you.

729
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: Skeets Yokich had that really nice, like a spin movie,

730
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: finished with his left hand like a nice scoop.

731
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 5: Ye.

732
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: He ran back down the court just grinning ear to ear.

733
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 1: I was wondering if that's more acceptable to you than

734
00:30:56,640 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: showing your left hand. Yes, yes, just just smiling good.

735
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 2: I don't mind when you do it in a pickup run,

736
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 2: because look, your left hand.

737
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 3: Is not your strong hand.

738
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 2: An NBA professional basketball player when they hit a left

739
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 2: handed layup does not need to be going. Hey, look

740
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 2: I did it with my left hand. That's my personal opinion. Okay,

741
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 2: they should be a fair enough is pre skilled. So

742
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 2: I will take a grin, I will take.

743
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 3: A smiling all good.

744
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 1: The other one, there was a pass from the top

745
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 1: of the key yok caught on the left block, just

746
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: like a little tip pass too.

747
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 3: I think it was Aaron Gordon and Grant.

748
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: Hill called him a center fair enough, but he said

749
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 1: he was a center setting up a volleyball spiker.

750
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 3: First question, do you think he meant setter? Oh?

751
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 4: That was a.

752
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's probably what he meant. But then he

753
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 3: made a great joke. He said, sets it over to

754
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 3: Karch Karai. Do you know karch Karai?

755
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 1: I think karch Karai is the only volleyball player reference

756
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: that meant at a certain age. Now, my dad could

757
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: name one volleyball player Karch Karai. He was like the

758
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 1: most fam miss volleyball player in the eighties and nineties.

759
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: I don't know why, how do you even spell that?

760
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 3: K R H K h R A L. He's a legend. Yeah,

761
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 3: I've seen this guy. Yeah, you know you're a legend.

762
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 3: Car You're a legend Carch.

763
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 1: He somehow he knows jud Bushler somehow.

764
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 3: I think they may have played together.

765
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: All I'm saying is we need to update our volleyball

766
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 1: player references. Let's go with Chase Butdinger it's perfect former

Speaker 1: Carch hasn't spiked for three decades, Brandt.

Speaker 3: Just some carch kari out there. I hope you're listening.

773
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 5: Dad, Well that's what they said on the broadcast. Spiroudaddy

775
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 5: a lot of sports, and I hadn't heard that one.

776
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 5: Did he play volley while riding horses?

777
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 3: And handball?

778
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 4: We know that one, and water polo?

779
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 3: Not for sure he played water polo.

780
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: I thought it's really.

781
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 4: Because he may because he always does that.

782
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 3: Well yeah, yeah, yeah, but.

783
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 5: He always puts the ball over his hand like he's

784
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 5: ready to throw it in the top corner of an

785
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 5: Olympic game.

786
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 2: Now I might be confusing. Dirk was a handball player,

787
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 2: but I thought was too. He played all the sports sports. Yeah,

788
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 2: new rule by the way if you're like a two

789
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 2: time All NBA player, three time All start that level

790
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 2: like where we consider you like, you know, basically a

791
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 2: borderline superstar, like a really really really great player.

792
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 3: You gotta stop having two straight up duds in a

793
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 3: row in a playoff series. One. It's totally fine.

794
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 2: Happens you have a rough shooting night, bad whistle, you're frustrated.

795
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 2: You start doing it multiple times already in your career,

796
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 2: where you string together two or three bad games. I'm

797
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 2: talking about Karl Anthony Towns here.

798
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 3: Oh, it's then that's when. Then it's like who.

799
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 2: Gives a shit what you do in the regular season.

800
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 2: It's like, that's that though those players don't. That doesn't

801
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 2: happen generally two or three games in a row. And

802
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 2: he's had two stinkers here, and he did it last

803
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,240
Speaker 2: year against the Grizzlies. I remember he had two brutal games.

804
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 2: Foul trouble he was involved in there. He got a

805
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 2: tough call. I get that last night, But like these

806
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 2: are now eleven point games in game one, five to fifteen, okay,

807
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,320
Speaker 2: one to seven from deep, you know, twenty nine point blowout,

808
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 2: and then last night ten points, three to twelve shooting,

809
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 2: five turnovers, five fouls.

810
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 3: It's frustrating, man, he's.

811
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: Gotten out played by Aaron Gordon. Yeah, quite obviously. I

812
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,399
Speaker 1: mean it's hard to play with two bigs on the court.

813
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 1: The guy also missed two months of the season. Yeah,

814
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 1: to come in and try and get a rhythm I

815
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 1: think is tough. But yeah, uh, you can't be feeling

816
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 1: encouraged by the way Carl Anthony Towns has showed up

817
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: in this postseason and in last postseason. But I don't know,

818
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:55,839
Speaker 1: give him the benefit of the doubt to finish out

819
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: this year and try and figure out stuff. I suppose

820
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 1: next year alongside go or, like Kyle Anderson said after

821
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: Rudy Gobert punched him ino the chest, he got some

822
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 1: things to figure out this summer.

823
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm looking at it right now.

824
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 2: His career playoff game log and by the way, playing

825
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 2: games don't count, They're not even there. But this will

826
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 2: not be a shocker when Karl Anthony Towns, you know,

827
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 2: scores less than eleven points in a playoff game, his

828
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 2: team loses the first two games against the Rockets. Back

829
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 2: in twenty eighteen, when he got his first taste of

830
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 2: the playoffs Memember, he scored eight points and then five points.

831
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 3: They lost both those games.

832
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 2: Last year against the Grizzlies, had a great game one,

833
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 2: and then games two and three he was pretty bad.

834
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 2: Scored fifteen in game two, only eight in game three,

835
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 2: and then here we are in this series where they're

836
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 2: down two zero after two bad games. I mean, they

837
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 2: just need, like they need Carl as he.

838
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 3: Downs to have a decent game, let alone a good

839
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 3: to great game.

840
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I don't know. He's not really a

841
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: post up player. He's got in this series. He's got

842
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 1: to get out. He's got to be at the three

843
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 1: point line. That's why he's not faster than Aaron Gordon.

844
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 1: That's a problem. He can't take him off the dribble.

845
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter. He just has to be outside the

846
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 4: three point line. In this series, he's like.

847
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 3: Twenty five percent from three so far, so he's got

848
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 3: a hit.

849
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, but he's just pulling him out and.

850
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 5: That that's how that's how they scored forty points the

851
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 5: space because because.

852
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 4: For Anthony, yeah, for everybody. Yeah, that's how they scored.

853
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 4: He has been he's been a post player for six quarters.

854
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 4: And then they said, all right, bye.

855
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 3: Bye, get out of the way, man.

856
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 5: He had a couple of good was the play in

857
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,240
Speaker 5: was good even though those stats don't exist anywhere.

858
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 4: But yeah, playing with Gobert is different.

859
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 2: Do you think the Wolves can win a game Trey

860
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,400
Speaker 2: in Minnesota? They can take one off Denver or this?

861
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 2: Does this scream.

862
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 3: Sweep to you? I think they can.

863
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 1: I think they still have a chance to win a

864
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:42,439
Speaker 1: game in Minnesota. They had a great crowd last year

865
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 1: in the playoffs and in the play in Anthony Edwards.

866
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 1: I think that's encouraging the way he played last night,

867
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 1: to see the comfort that he had getting to his jumper,

868
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 1: driving the lane, using as his athleticism. So I think

869
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,359
Speaker 1: that with him playing as well as he did and

870
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,280
Speaker 1: going home, they got a chance to pull one off here.

871
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna tear our first break when we

872
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 2: come back. We got a bunch of news to talk about,

885
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 2: of the Year award unanimously. Tass, that was the real

886
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 2: shocker here. That is a shocker first time ever with

887
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 2: this award.

888
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 5: That is definitely a shocker with the way voters think

889
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 5: of it, and they just have their own agendas. They

890
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 5: start thinking about other guys. There's a lot of good

891
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 5: coaches out there, right right, this is surprising. They had

892
00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:00,799
Speaker 5: their votes in just this past weekend, right, So I

893
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 5: guess they maybe saw the Sacramento Game one win. Maybe

894
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 5: I got him a few extra votes.

895
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 4: Whatever.

896
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 5: He deserves every single one, whether it's unanimous or not.

897
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 5: Michael Burton Brown came into this season and obviously created

898
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 5: an incredible locker room. Yeah, and even great story on

899
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 5: the Athletic about them getting ready for this series. Michael

900
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 5: Burton Brown, Matthew Della Vedova, and Harrison Barnes all got

901
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,319
Speaker 5: up because they all have their own histories with the

902
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 5: Golden State Warriors and did their talking like he's done

903
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:36,799
Speaker 5: a he's done a good job whatever. Whatever he's done,

904
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 5: it's worked. Oh and yeah, he's got a superstar in

905
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 5: dearon Fox and Tibonus. It's incredible job, man, incredible job.

906
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,440
Speaker 3: Were you shocked at all by him getting all one

907
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 3: hundred votes?

908
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 1: Yes, and no shocking because it actually happened, But also like,

909
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 1: why would you vote for somebody else? He's the clear,

910
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: clear choice as coach of the Year here. And I

911
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 1: also think it's very funny that he's kind of doing

912
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 1: the ultimate ropodope as well.

913
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,879
Speaker 3: Michael Brown. I can't stop saying Michael Brown.

914
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 1: When somebody started saying that Mike Brown coming in to

915
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 1: the Kings was known as a defensive coach. He was

916
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 1: like a defensive coach with the Warriors. When he was

917
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: with the Cavs and Lakers, it was defense first, we'll

918
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 1: figure out the offense later. Everybody's thinking, you're gonna make

919
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 1: this team better on defense. They're not much better at all,

920
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,320
Speaker 1: but they're good enough and they're awesome on offense. Until

921
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: Mike Brown meets his former team in the playoffs and

922
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 1: he pulls out every defensive card that he's had in

923
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 1: his career for the past thirty years. Now they're looking

924
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: like a great defensive team in the playoffs. Give them

925
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 1: Coach of the Year for the regular season and for

926
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 1: at least the first two games at the playoffs.

927
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, not shocking at all. Forty eight and thirty four,

928
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 2: seventh best record in the league, greatest offense we've ever

929
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,720
Speaker 2: seen when it comes to offensive Absolutely best road record

930
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 2: in the Western Conference. That's pretty special. They snapped that

931
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 2: sixteen year consecutive losing seasons that playoff trout, and they

932
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 2: won the division title. Obviously in a tough division where

933
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:01,919
Speaker 2: there's a lot of good teams, a lot of making

934
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,359
Speaker 2: them postseason. So kudos to Mike Brown. If your name

935
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 2: is Mike, you got a great chance of winning this award.

936
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 2: One of Mike's d'antoni's won it twice.

937
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 3: Okay, how about it. It's another current coach. There's another Malone. No,

938
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 3: he's one, he's next. Lock it in. Mike Malone will

939
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 3: eventually win this award. Uh No, there's another current coach though, Mike.

940
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 2: Buden bootholeser twice. So we got Brown, D'antonian, Bootenholzer, twice.

941
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 2: And then you guys, well, you guys can get you'll

942
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 2: get two of the three, but you're gonna struggle with

943
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 2: the last one because I didn't even know who he was.

944
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 2: You guys, you saw him iron his shirt from time

945
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,760
Speaker 2: to time. Mike for a Tello back in the eighties.

946
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 3: Great one, did he win with the Hawks? Maybe the Hawks?

947
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 2: And then there's another one. You know, his son went

948
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 2: on to play in the NBA. Mike, who's a three

949
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 2: point shooter, white guy?

950
00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 1: Three point shooting, white guy, Mike Legler, Mike Price.

951
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely the white whites. I was thinking of as well.

952
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 3: Uh So, what can I give you?

953
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,319
Speaker 4: My son went on to play. That's tough. That's tough

954
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 4: when you go about it that way. Well, because you

955
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 4: don't think of this.

956
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 2: This guy shares a name with the governor of Alaska Tesk,

957
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 2: like you know your politics.

958
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:23,879
Speaker 4: The governor of Alaska. I can get there. I can

959
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:24,399
Speaker 4: get there.

960
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 3: I don't know if he's correct.

961
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:34,360
Speaker 1: Mike Richards go on, uh man, m D, m D

962
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,399
Speaker 1: or the initials Miked TONI no, the other one, Mike,

963
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:38,280
Speaker 1: this was a junior.

964
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 2: This was a junior in the NBA. And then the

965
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 2: final one, I mean, you couldn't get that one. You're

966
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 2: never getting this one because I've never even heard of

967
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 2: this guy. I'm even just like looking them up. Do

968
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 2: you know the name Mike Schuler?

969
00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 4: He Suler's dad.

970
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 2: Mike Schuler won it Rookie tookey coach to win me

971
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year.

972
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 3: Who did he do it with? Mike Shulery coached coach Blazers.

973
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 2: Anyway, congratulations to Mike Brown, and congratulations in advance to

974
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:20,359
Speaker 2: Michael Malon. Next piece of news here just came out

975
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:25,600
Speaker 2: of nowhere. The Wizards fired GM Tommy Shephard after four seasons.

976
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 2: The Wizards themselves announced this one tk that he is

977
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 2: out of there. And this is what Wizard's owner Ted

978
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 2: Leonsis said in a statement quote, A search for new

979
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 2: leadership will begin immediately for an executive from outside the organization.

980
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 2: That's sort of a keyword there, outside because they like

981
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 2: to keep things internal.

982
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 1: Indeed, I think it's two thousand and three as the

983
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,800
Speaker 1: last time an executive was hired from outside the organization.

984
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 1: Ernie Grunfeld was the man for the Wizards. Yeah, that's

985
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,920
Speaker 1: one came out of nowhere, because I said Wes Unzel

986
00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 1: Junior was on the medium hot seat. Wrong Wizard, it

987
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:02,560
Speaker 1: turns out. But yeah, I mean, on one hand, I

988
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,799
Speaker 1: kind of feel like, is this Tommy Shepherd's fault.

989
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:06,840
Speaker 3: It seemed to be that.

990
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,959
Speaker 1: The directive from the front office is bring back our guys,

991
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 1: keep Bradley Beal around at any cost necessary. They did

992
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:19,399
Speaker 1: that when Tommy Shepherd came in. The Wizards were twenty

993
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 1: five and forty seven his first season. Then they won

994
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 1: thirty four games, then thirty five, then thirty five.

995
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 3: He ain't that much different.

996
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 1: I mean, they ain't that much different, I suppose is

997
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,880
Speaker 1: the problem. But is the goal to get back to

998
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 1: the play in tournament. Probably that does seem a little

999
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,920
Speaker 1: bit like the goal right now. But I would say

1000
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 1: everybody who's watching this, listening to this, get your trade

1001
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,360
Speaker 1: machine ready, because if you can come up with a

1002
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: good Bradley Beal trade, you might get hired as the Wizards.

1003
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 3: Gm oh.

1004
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,440
Speaker 1: That seems to be what the main goal should be.

1005
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 1: Bradley Beal has a no trade clause. The only way

1006
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,800
Speaker 1: the Wizards get better is by trading him. But you

1007
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 1: gotta have the buy in from ted leonsis to take

1008
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 1: a step back.

1009
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 5: For a couple of seasons take a step, but it's

1010
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,759
Speaker 5: going to be sort of lateral. If they trade Bradley Beal,

1011
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 5: how many more games are they going to lose? Really,

1012
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:06,759
Speaker 5: if they get a package back, they could still be

1013
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:08,399
Speaker 5: in the thirties. I think this is a good sign

1014
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,440
Speaker 5: and that there's some accountability and that they're not going

1015
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 5: to just run back the exact same team, and that

1016
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 5: they are thinking about something else rather than just bring

1017
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 5: him back the crew, rather than just giving Kuzma a

1018
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 5: big contract this offseason, rather than just paying Porzingis after

1019
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 5: he comes off the books the following season. That just

1020
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 5: seems like the Wizard's path, but maybe it's different. And

1021
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 5: I think that's a somewhat positive idea because it is

1022
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,320
Speaker 5: just bring back our guys, bring back our guys, and

1023
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 5: let's win thirty games.

1024
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 4: So a little positivity here.

1025
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it definitely raises questions about the future of Kuzma

1026
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 2: and Porzingis, especially Kuzma. They have his bird rights, so

1027
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:50,240
Speaker 2: it does allow the Wizards to re sign Kuzma exceeding

1028
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:53,320
Speaker 2: the salary cap and allowing him or allowing them to

1029
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,000
Speaker 2: give him that fifth year right. So other potential suitors

1030
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 2: they're limited into signing Kuzman to cap space or signing

1031
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 2: trade with Wizards. Can't get that fifth year, so we'll

1032
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 2: see what they do there. Porzingis, Yeah, he's got the

1033
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 2: player option right, but it's huge what we'll see what

1034
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 2: he does with that decision. But they've just drafted like

1035
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 2: shit too. This is the other part I mean, is

1036
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:16,960
Speaker 2: that Tommy Shepperd is that the I mean, it's his job.

1037
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,800
Speaker 2: I think he has the ultimate final say. It hasn't

1038
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 2: been great, but a part of it is they're always

1039
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 2: in that weird middle ground. So it's not like I

1040
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 2: have a top three pick twenty nineteen really hot Chimura. Okay,

1041
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 2: he's playing well for the Lakers right now. He did

1042
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 2: not play well for the Wizards. Ninth pick in nineteen.

1043
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 2: Danny Avdya ninth pick in twenty twenty, looks to be

1044
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 2: a fine player, but obviously not a franchise altering player.

1045
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 2: Corey Kispert twenty twenty one. He was the fifteenth pick.

1046
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 2: Good three point shooter, fantastic three point shooter, but again

1047
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 2: has appeared so far that he'll be just a very

1048
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 2: solid role player. And then man this twenty twenty two pick,

1049
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 2: Johnny Davis was one of the older guys drafted.

1050
00:45:59,440 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 3: He goes ten.

1051
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 2: He played what at the end of the season in

1052
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 2: the Mindless Games and played a couple of good weeks,

1053
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,239
Speaker 2: but otherwise he was probably most people's pick for like

1054
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,840
Speaker 2: the biggest bust through the first like four months of

1055
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,520
Speaker 2: the season. So that's just that's not great. And again,

1056
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 2: like you can find gems in those spots. We've seen

1057
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,440
Speaker 2: the time and time again superstars picking those ranges from

1058
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 2: you know, eight to fifteen, but they went really, oh

1059
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 2: for four. It appears in getting a player that you're like, oh, yeah,

1060
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:26,239
Speaker 2: that's a building block right there.

1061
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 4: So that's not gonna help your chances of sticking around totally.

1062
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,399
Speaker 5: I do wonder if this is the end of Bradley Beal,

1063
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 5: though with the Washington Wizards, it feels like part of

1064
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 5: him wants it, as he told our friends Josiah Johnson

1065
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,280
Speaker 5: and Gilbert Arenas, I had no option.

1066
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 4: When I signed that contract.

1067
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:51,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's as obviously doesn't put a lot of confidence

1068
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 5: into the fan base if they're going to read into

1069
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 5: that stuff that was just this year. It goes every

1070
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,719
Speaker 5: It happens every year, so yeah, maybe they're gonna go

1071
00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 5: in a different direction. They're gonna call Massai and say, hey,

1072
00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 5: you want to come down to Washington.

1073
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 2: We've we've tried that before. We tried it before Tim

1074
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,319
Speaker 2: Connolly too. They basically struck out on him, I think

1075
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:08,839
Speaker 2: the first time.

1076
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,520
Speaker 5: And then that's a weird one that Connolly, because he

1077
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,919
Speaker 5: just went to Minnesota before this offseason, made the Rudy

1078
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:18,720
Speaker 5: Gobert deal. He signed a huge deal to go to Minnesota.

1079
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 4: So I don't think that one's gonna happen.

1080
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 1: Got an equity steak, I believe, Yeah, so yeah, he'll

1081
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 1: probably stay in Minnesota, but you could see if you

1082
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 1: want to leave, they trade another huge name.

1083
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:34,120
Speaker 3: Why not. It just goes around franchise. We uh, we

1084
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 3: have heard from woesh.

1085
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,360
Speaker 2: I believe it was tweting last night that West Untel

1086
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 2: Junior the coach of the Wizards. He's going to be

1087
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 2: good for at least one more season. But that's always

1088
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:46,879
Speaker 2: a strange dynamic where in theory and new GM comes

1089
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 2: in and then you've got like sort of the the

1090
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 2: old coach. Usually GM likes to bring in their own

1091
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:54,400
Speaker 2: guy and like sort of like try and link up

1092
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,759
Speaker 2: and build the team that way. But we'll see if

1093
00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 2: what West gets a fair crack here and all of

1094
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,840
Speaker 2: these decays. Whoever this person is u be it a

1095
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 2: big name, feels like that's where they really want to go,

1096
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:09,600
Speaker 2: like someone very established, Like you're throwing out Massias and

1097
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,319
Speaker 2: Tim Connolly and stuff like that outside at least as

1098
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 2: we talked about. But they're in a tough spot here.

1099
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:17,160
Speaker 2: I guess you've got to just trade Bradley Beal and

1100
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:23,480
Speaker 2: get worse. Yeah, but it's not like he's like taking them.

1101
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 2: Took him into one playoff series they lost in five.

1102
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:31,240
Speaker 5: They would be trading for hope at least because otherwise

1103
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 5: they're they're a middling team. That's what's what's happening with

1104
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:36,960
Speaker 5: bial or without. Maybe they got It's like the reverse

1105
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 5: with west Enzil Junior. Dad played, he didn't play. It's

1106
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 5: the reverse of the Mike Done Levy scenario. Maybe he's

1107
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 5: got to get Mike don Levy Junior. He's involved in basketball.

1108
00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 3: Trajan Langdon another name speaking of Alaska, speaking of Alaska,

1109
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 3: well done, I've seen his name be a sleach. The

1110
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:58,719
Speaker 3: possibility of the GM.

1111
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 4: Role, Yeah, of course with her Man griff Uh.

1112
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 2: You guys have talked about this all week long, but

1113
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:07,920
Speaker 2: there's been an updates sort of from the NBA when

1114
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:09,799
Speaker 2: it comes to Draymond Green in the suspension. We had

1115
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 2: NBA Executive vice president and head of Basketball Operations Joe

1116
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:19,200
Speaker 2: Dumars saying Draymond Green's quote excessive and over the top

1117
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 2: actions and his history as a repeat offender were instrumental

1118
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 2: in the league decision to suspend him for Games three

1119
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,880
Speaker 2: of the Warriors first round series against the Kings tonight.

1120
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 3: So he went on record. They got Joe Dumars out there.

1121
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,279
Speaker 3: It never appears happy to me to be talking about

1122
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 3: any of this. I don't know. You see, he wants

1123
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:41,719
Speaker 3: to punish people.

1124
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, he doesn't want to Yeah.

1125
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:45,239
Speaker 1: He probably was also like, you're sending me to do

1126
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 1: a press tour on a suspension.

1127
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:47,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's weird.

1128
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:52,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, but this is what is the reasons we're sort

1129
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:55,719
Speaker 2: of these three things excessive and over the top, uh,

1130
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:56,880
Speaker 2: and the repeat offender.

1131
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:58,759
Speaker 3: That's what Joe kept saying there.

1132
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:00,960
Speaker 5: That's what Joe kept saying. Yeah, he was thinking, I

1133
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:04,239
Speaker 5: played on the bad Boys. I wanted to stomp. I

1134
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,239
Speaker 5: wanted to do some stomping myself. But it is weird

1135
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 5: to see somebody from the NBA front office talking about this.

1136
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:14,200
Speaker 4: Out in the open. It just doesn't.

1137
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 5: It doesn't happen a lot. They don't do they don't

1138
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 5: make these proclamations, but we've talked about I do think

1139
00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:27,800
Speaker 5: it's entirely fine to take someone's resume and reputation into account.

1140
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 5: I think that's totally fine, especially in a situation where

1141
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:35,320
Speaker 5: there's a foot grab and it's difficult to know without

1142
00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:37,920
Speaker 5: a weight scale how much pressure he was putting on

1143
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:41,719
Speaker 5: to Monte Saboni's So I'm fine with the one game

1144
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 5: when it comes down to it. The Warriors obviously have

1145
00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:48,560
Speaker 5: a tough, tough task tonight. I can't wait to see

1146
00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:49,760
Speaker 5: how everybody responds.

1147
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 2: Dumars also acknowledged that Draymond's behavior in the aftermath of

1148
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 2: the ejection, where he is taunting and riling up the

1149
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,880
Speaker 2: King's crowd, played a factor. I mean, he came on

1150
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:04,439
Speaker 2: record and said that, yeah, the way he reacted after

1151
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:07,279
Speaker 2: this whole thing goes down doesn't help his case. Hence

1152
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 2: the one game along with you know, one hundred and

1153
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:13,600
Speaker 2: sixty one hundred and sixty three career technicals and seventeen

1154
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:14,600
Speaker 2: ejections and all this.

1155
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's amazing. I know it's not amazing.

1156
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,040
Speaker 2: Because the playoffs as Draymond Green and the defending champion

1157
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:23,399
Speaker 2: Warriors against the upstart Kings. But it is sort of wild.

1158
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:25,840
Speaker 2: The guy fucking stopped on a player. Of course he

1159
00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:29,480
Speaker 2: should get a game. It's not that hard he stopped

1160
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 2: on him.

1161
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 3: He didn't need to to me.

1162
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:35,960
Speaker 2: It's like, it's no different than like if I hold you,

1163
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,399
Speaker 2: which you can you can convince me. Yeah, Sibonis held

1164
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,920
Speaker 2: his leg intentionally. Some say not whatever, But if I

1165
00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,080
Speaker 2: hold you your arm on the basketball court and then

1166
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,480
Speaker 2: you wind up and clock me being in the chest, neck, whatever,

1167
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,879
Speaker 2: then you're going to get the more severe punishment. Yep,

1168
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,600
Speaker 2: that's this was just feet instead of fists.

1169
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:57,960
Speaker 5: Well, I think it is different. It is different because

1170
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:00,879
Speaker 5: the guy was trying to run are different than arms.

1171
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 5: He was trying to get run and get back on defense.

1172
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:04,800
Speaker 3: He's trying to shake off the hold.

1173
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, he tried to also, still there, there was a stomp.

1174
00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 5: No doubt he wasn't lying there because his rugged Ronny

1175
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:12,040
Speaker 5: remember him.

1176
00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:14,960
Speaker 2: That was his finishing move, one of his finishing moves

1177
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 2: in the WW. He would just stomp around a guy.

1178
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:21,640
Speaker 2: He'd go around his whole bottom lotos looking up.

1179
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 3: Hilarious, yeah, rugged, rugged Roddy Garvin literally would stomp around

1180
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:33,560
Speaker 3: the guy's body on the ground. Cool dray Bond will

1181
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:35,120
Speaker 3: be doing that. That'll be his finishing move. But he's

1182
00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 3: a wrestler pretty good.

1183
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:40,240
Speaker 4: Actually, you just reminded that they were calling David roddy, rowdy,

1184
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 4: David rowdy, roddy whatever whatever it was exactly, but some

1185
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:48,120
Speaker 4: sort of rowdy roddy, not rugged piper reference.

1186
00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:50,560
Speaker 2: Uh so, yeah, were you shocked that it wasn't that

1187
00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:53,279
Speaker 2: it was Dumars and not Silver maybe doing this, or

1188
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 2: that it happened at all this Like, well here I am,

1189
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:56,680
Speaker 2: let me tell you.

1190
00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 3: Why are we suspended in one game?

1191
00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, definitely you don't. You usually get a car

1192
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 1: wash appointment for a guy getting suspended.

1193
00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:05,040
Speaker 3: But the.

1194
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,320
Speaker 1: Magnitude of the game, the player who it is, the

1195
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 1: fact that this is a Warriors team who has been

1196
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 1: the face of the league for the past ten seasons. Basically,

1197
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,160
Speaker 1: I think understandable why Joe Dumars is out there. I

1198
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:20,440
Speaker 1: like a lot of people are, like, didn't he used

1199
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,359
Speaker 1: to work for the Kings once upon a time.

1200
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:22,719
Speaker 4: He did.

1201
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:26,319
Speaker 1: He also like tutored Draymond Green as a player coming

1202
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:28,239
Speaker 1: up through the league. So maybe he's the perfect guy

1203
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 1: to make him make the decisions here.

1204
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,279
Speaker 4: Oh okay, Detroit connection nice, So.

1205
00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,960
Speaker 2: No Draymond of course tonight in game three, we'll see

1206
00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:38,160
Speaker 2: what happens there in the Bay. Final piece of news

1207
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 2: Adam Silver He said the NBA's in season tournament to

1208
00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:45,080
Speaker 2: feature different uniforms and the finals will be played at

1209
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,800
Speaker 2: a neutral site. He said this at the Sports Business

1210
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:51,759
Speaker 2: Journals World Congress of Sports conference, which happened earlier this week,

1211
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:55,400
Speaker 2: about this upcoming in season tournament. Yeah, that was a

1212
00:53:55,520 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 2: lot of sports in that Business Journals World Congress of

1213
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:01,800
Speaker 2: Sports conference.

1214
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:07,160
Speaker 3: You have to be elected. Sorry, my third term on

1215
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:08,360
Speaker 3: the World Congress of Sports.

1216
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 2: But he said that players will be wearing different uniforms,

1217
00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:12,880
Speaker 2: maybe the court will look different.

1218
00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:14,400
Speaker 3: You'll know, it's not just a.

1219
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,839
Speaker 2: Regular season game. And he said that the final four

1220
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:19,480
Speaker 2: teams will play at a neutral site. And then additionally

1221
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,799
Speaker 2: regular season games will also count as cup games, which

1222
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 2: will run through November. So we're getting like a little

1223
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 2: bit more details. And there was some I guess you

1224
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:30,920
Speaker 2: guys did talk about some payouts when it comes to

1225
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:32,440
Speaker 2: this in season tournament.

1226
00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:34,879
Speaker 5: Yes, do you like that the DK for the best

1227
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 5: loser those are the payouts. I know you wanted to

1228
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:41,279
Speaker 5: talk about it. He came back rare and a go

1229
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:44,480
Speaker 5: talking about the way. I guess that's gonna look different.

1230
00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 5: That's the news, really, Yeah, the courts and the neutral

1231
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 5: site part.

1232
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:52,200
Speaker 2: I think what I'm fascinated by about all this is

1233
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,320
Speaker 2: like the blowback to this concept of the nd season tournament.

1234
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:59,160
Speaker 2: It's like, we're just raising the stakes a little bit

1235
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:00,800
Speaker 2: of games a already scheduled.

1236
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 3: So how's that. How's that bad? I'm not saying it's

1237
00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 3: going to be amazing right away, but how is that bad?

1238
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:09,120
Speaker 3: It's not.

1239
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,080
Speaker 2: Now you look, I like all of you, Let's reduce

1240
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,480
Speaker 2: the season, Let's make the games more important. All that

1241
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:17,799
Speaker 2: that is not happening from the players Association or from

1242
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:19,799
Speaker 2: the league themselves. There's just too much money and all

1243
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:22,040
Speaker 2: the obviously the broadcasting and all that. So I just

1244
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 2: don't see the downside in trying to raise the stakes

1245
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 2: a little bit of games earlier in.

1246
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:29,279
Speaker 3: The year and just give it a go.

1247
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:31,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, the games won't be all that different. It feels

1248
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,040
Speaker 5: like it'll feel like a regular season game.

1249
00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 3: I guess the look different.

1250
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:38,640
Speaker 5: It'll look different, which is smart. I guess it just

1251
00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 5: know there's a the gimmicky is turned up a little bit.

1252
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:47,440
Speaker 5: It feels like the gimmick knob, But you're totally right,

1253
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,560
Speaker 5: it's it's the same. I maybe am a little too

1254
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:54,200
Speaker 5: North American sports oriented. I just want to throw an

1255
00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:55,680
Speaker 5: extra word in there because we're talking about the World

1256
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,240
Speaker 5: Sports Congress or whatever, like maybe maybe I just don't

1257
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,080
Speaker 5: I just don't wrap my head around an n season

1258
00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:04,759
Speaker 5: tournament because I'm just a major.

1259
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:05,719
Speaker 4: Sports kind of guy.

1260
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:08,480
Speaker 5: But I am willing to give them the benefit of

1261
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:10,200
Speaker 5: the doubt. Is trade brought up yesterday because of how

1262
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:13,520
Speaker 5: successful the play in tournament has been. That's that was

1263
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:17,880
Speaker 5: executed very well. So let's roll this.

1264
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:22,240
Speaker 3: Happens next season. Yeah, oh yeah, twenty three, twenty four December,

1265
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:23,320
Speaker 3: ten years in the future.

1266
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 4: To me still twenty three, twenty four, twenty.

1267
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:29,320
Speaker 3: Four, and I see it, we'll be flying cars by that.

1268
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:33,239
Speaker 1: I got a few ideas for this, Okay, Number one,

1269
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 1: to make it look different, they should play in the

1270
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,160
Speaker 1: uniforms from the new Chris Paul commercial. They call them

1271
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:42,520
Speaker 1: old school shorts. They're long shorts. That's old school shorts now,

1272
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,920
Speaker 1: the shorts that come down to your midshin. So I

1273
00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:48,040
Speaker 1: think go back to the early two thousands. Look long,

1274
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:52,359
Speaker 1: long shorts, gigantic jerseys. My other pitch for this, if

1275
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:55,680
Speaker 1: I were campaigning for the World Congress of Sport, was

1276
00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,680
Speaker 1: that we maybe have a player salary max or some

1277
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:04,800
Speaker 1: kind of tournament games salary cap that gives the highest

1278
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:07,440
Speaker 1: paid best players in the league a reason to rest

1279
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:09,800
Speaker 1: these games. If you make over x amount of dollars,

1280
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:13,040
Speaker 1: you cannot play Lebron James. You're making forty million, You're

1281
00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:15,239
Speaker 1: sitting on the bench for this one. Whoa, you got

1282
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:19,040
Speaker 1: to play your lower paid players, everybody under a certain number.

1283
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 3: I don't know what the number is.

1284
00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:23,240
Speaker 1: At first, I started thinking five million dollars per season,

1285
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:24,080
Speaker 1: a ten x.

1286
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:27,040
Speaker 5: You want the best players to not play, That's exactly sure,

1287
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 5: that's exactly right, right, exactly right.

1288
00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 1: I want the best players to not play in this

1289
00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 1: tournament and for no one to judge them for it,

1290
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 1: because guess what, they're gonna sit some of these games,

1291
00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:38,800
Speaker 1: any guys. Yeah, yeah, And it will be not a

1292
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:41,880
Speaker 1: not a problem if they have this excuse that they

1293
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 1: are not allowed to play, Because putting up salary max

1294
00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 1: means you're playing the players who it matters the most

1295
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:50,280
Speaker 1: to for ken Korkmas. He makes exactly five million dollars

1296
00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:51,800
Speaker 1: a year. I bet he'd like to win five hundred

1297
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:54,640
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. It's also the most playing time he would

1298
00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:55,960
Speaker 1: get if he were to be able to play in

1299
00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:58,920
Speaker 1: that game. If Embiid, if Harden, if Tobias Harris, all

1300
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:01,000
Speaker 1: these guys who are higher and the pecking order aren't

1301
00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:04,040
Speaker 1: allowed to play. If you build a championship team, if

1302
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:07,080
Speaker 1: you're a Lakers, if you are a Milwaukee Bucks, you're undo.

1303
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:08,800
Speaker 1: The bench guys are probably not as good, so you're

1304
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,240
Speaker 1: not as competitive in this tournament. But if you're a

1305
00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:14,280
Speaker 1: rebuilding team, if you're the Thunder, you're probably playing a

1306
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:16,400
Speaker 1: lot of your best players in this airgo. The tournament

1307
00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 1: means more to you, and it's just a different stratosphere

1308
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 1: of games. It feels different, it looks different, and it

1309
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:25,880
Speaker 1: means more to the players who are out there, while

1310
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,400
Speaker 1: giving the best teams in the league a chance to

1311
00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 1: develop their younger players as well.

1312
00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:32,440
Speaker 4: But it'll mean less because the stars aren't out there.

1313
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:34,400
Speaker 1: It's gonna mean less anyways, because it's in the middle

1314
00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 1: of the season.

1315
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:37,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, well mean less than what a regular season game.

1316
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:42,400
Speaker 5: I think they'll do the scheduler will say, you're getting

1317
00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:44,720
Speaker 5: days off before these games, so the stars play. That's

1318
00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:47,440
Speaker 5: what they're going to do as much as possible, so

1319
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,400
Speaker 5: they can get all the stars out there.

1320
00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 3: That's what they're gonna do. But this is what they

1321
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:51,560
Speaker 3: should do.

1322
00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:55,320
Speaker 4: I wonder what the ratio for.

1323
00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:00,000
Speaker 5: All the European soccer tournaments is for stars playing, because

1324
00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:04,439
Speaker 5: sometimes stars do sit down those scamps. But Adam ain't

1325
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 5: gonna like that.

1326
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 3: Adam aint gonna like it. No, no, no.

1327
00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:08,720
Speaker 2: I like this wrinkle though, of at least making it

1328
00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:12,080
Speaker 2: appear to be a different type of event, even if

1329
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 2: it's just a jersey change of court change whatever, whatever's

1330
00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:17,120
Speaker 2: on the floor. And then I guess we'll find out

1331
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:20,760
Speaker 2: where this neutral site is too. Any guesses where they'll

1332
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:21,000
Speaker 2: play it?

1333
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:22,480
Speaker 3: The one with the umlaut.

1334
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 1: They're gonna be playing in the top shelf at your

1335
00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 1: local stores. Sorry, they're not sponsoring us anymore.

1336
00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:31,040
Speaker 4: Right now?

1337
00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:32,880
Speaker 3: Where do I think they're gonna play a Las Vegas? Yeah?

1338
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 2: Probably, Yeah, that'll get the players, the star players right

1339
00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 2: exactly right, smooth move.

1340
00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:41,280
Speaker 5: They'll definitely like they're going to try and make this

1341
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:43,640
Speaker 5: a bigger thing like the Commissioner's Cup. For instance, in

1342
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:46,200
Speaker 5: the w NBA, which is the equivalent here of the

1343
00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:50,000
Speaker 5: nd season tournament. That's part of the new change in

1344
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:52,640
Speaker 5: the w NBA, where chartered flights are going to be

1345
00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:56,360
Speaker 5: there for the play the playoffs, the regular playoffs, and

1346
00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:59,400
Speaker 5: for this the Commissioner's Cup Finals. So it's it's a

1347
00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 5: thing like the This is going to be a thing

1348
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:04,000
Speaker 5: in November and December.

1349
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:05,800
Speaker 2: You made a good point though, like these and I

1350
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:07,200
Speaker 2: said it when I was doing the intro, they're like,

1351
01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:10,320
Speaker 2: these games are not separate outside of like I guess

1352
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:13,919
Speaker 2: that that potential final extra game, but for the most part,

1353
01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:16,680
Speaker 2: the games within this tournament are just regular season games.

1354
01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:19,880
Speaker 2: So it will be weird if like player X is like,

1355
01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 2: ah fuck.

1356
01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:22,960
Speaker 3: This stupid ind season tournament. I don't care.

1357
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:24,880
Speaker 2: I don't want to play, it would be the same

1358
01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:27,920
Speaker 2: equivalent of that player saying, ah fuck Game thirteen of

1359
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:31,320
Speaker 2: the regular season, I don't want to play. Yeah, okay, fair,

1360
01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:33,680
Speaker 2: it's not the most important game of the season, but

1361
01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:35,439
Speaker 2: it is still when you're winning and losing and where

1362
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:37,880
Speaker 2: you're getting in the playoff and all that, it matters.

1363
01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:39,680
Speaker 2: So maybe there won't be as much as that, And

1364
01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:42,240
Speaker 2: Simmer did say with the international players in this league.

1365
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 2: It's like nearly like a third or something. It's very

1366
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 2: very high obviously that they're used to this with all

1367
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:52,280
Speaker 2: of the you know, soccer in season tournaments. Well, Canadians

1368
01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:54,560
Speaker 2: are right, basketball does it? They have like their little

1369
01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:57,400
Speaker 2: invitationals at the beginning of the season. You can win

1370
01:00:57,480 --> 01:00:59,880
Speaker 2: the Maui Invitational. Nobody cares. Yeah, but you don't have

1371
01:00:59,920 --> 01:01:03,480
Speaker 2: to wear shoes when you're coaching. Think more sandals, Yeah,

1372
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:04,920
Speaker 2: I think more sandals. They can wear a shirt like

1373
01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 2: this on the sideline.

1374
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:08,920
Speaker 3: Hold on, can they really wear sandles? Yeah? I'm always

1375
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:13,200
Speaker 3: very chill. Man. It's very dangerous to me basketball the

1376
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:14,960
Speaker 3: toe want me to pull out my.

1377
01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 5: Blood random marathon and he thinks it's dangerous to coach.

1378
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:26,240
Speaker 5: Somebody can take a ball to the toe, man, Zach

1379
01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:27,320
Speaker 5: loking coach out there.

1380
01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:27,680
Speaker 4: That's why.

1381
01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:31,920
Speaker 5: That's why Zach shows up for media day and his

1382
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:37,760
Speaker 5: songs take a k a wow, flipflops aka.

1383

Speaker 4: No socks, no yeah, pants and sandals.

1384
01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:46,560
Speaker 5: That is very unbandal pants, right, Zach cloves on the

1385
01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:48,240
Speaker 5: brain because I'm looking at him right now because he's

1386
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:49,120
Speaker 5: part of the tweet of the night.

1387
01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:51,320
Speaker 3: Okay, well, let's take a break, and when we come back,

1388
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:52,840
Speaker 3: we'll get to that. Don't go anywhere.

1389
01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:56,800
Speaker 2: All right, before we get into our game three previous tonight,

1390
01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:58,040

01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 5: as aggregated from friends at Real GM and NBA Central.

1394
01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:16,400
Speaker 5: This is what Zach loo said on his podcast. It's

1395
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,400
Speaker 5: very topical. We're getting to the Warriors and the Kings here.

1396
01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:24,440
Speaker 5: The Warriors apparently feel like Demanta Sabonis is using the

1397
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:30,280
Speaker 5: ball as a weapon on offense. That's what Zach Lowe said.

1398
01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:33,800
Speaker 5: Here's this quote. There is some anger within the organization

1399
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:36,920
Speaker 5: toward the league. There's a sense in the organization that

1400
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:41,080
Speaker 5: Sabonis is shoving people on offensive rebounds and playing with

1401
01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:44,920
Speaker 5: his elbows out and using the ball as a weapon

1402
01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:46,320
Speaker 5: on offense.

1403
01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:46,840
Speaker 4: End quote.

1404
01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 5: So he's using the ball as a weapon and playing

1405
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:51,280
Speaker 5: with his elbows out. This is what Sabonis needs to

1406
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:54,000
Speaker 5: do in game three. He needs to come out to

1407
01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 5: this song.

1408
01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:56,840
Speaker 4: Right here.

1409
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:34,960
Speaker 3: It's just like a TikTok. He's just coming out like

1410
01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:37,000
Speaker 3: this on the floor.

1411
01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:41,680
Speaker 4: Played me out. J D had fifteen more seconds it's

1412
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 4: great audio.

1413
01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:44,360
Speaker 3: It's a good song.

1414
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's gotta come out with that. Why not? Why

1415
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 4: not come out of that.

1416
01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:52,160
Speaker 3: Encounter a why?

1417
01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:58,360
Speaker 4: Why not? Because it's got bass. It's all about the bass.

1418
01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:02,520
Speaker 5: Also because just to play into it, you play the

1419
01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:06,760
Speaker 5: villain he's using He's using those elbows as chicken wings.

1420
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:09,600
Speaker 4: M That's it.

1421
01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:13,080
Speaker 5: That's the whole thing I think it is. It is

1422
01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:17,720
Speaker 5: hilarious that this is even a story that he's playing

1423
01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:18,600
Speaker 5: basketball out there.

1424
01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:21,960
Speaker 2: I'm more, I'm more invested in the ball as a weapon,

1425
01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:24,800
Speaker 2: just like throwing a book, holding onto.

1426
01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:25,160
Speaker 3: A ball and punch.

1427
01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:28,160
Speaker 5: Where's the video evidence of that? I don't I don't

1428
01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:30,320
Speaker 5: see the video evidence of that. Is he pushing people

1429
01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:30,800
Speaker 5: with the ball?

1430
01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:33,640
Speaker 1: I actually think Zach's right. I think the Bonus pushes

1431
01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:35,120
Speaker 1: people in the back. I think he plays with his

1432
01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:37,840
Speaker 1: elbows out and I think he swings the ball around

1433
01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,160
Speaker 1: in people's faces and it's awesome. He's one of the

1434
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:42,640
Speaker 1: most physical players in the league, and clearly there has

1435
01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:45,800
Speaker 1: been a directive from the NBA heading into the postseason,

1436
01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:49,320
Speaker 1: no holds barred. It has been super physical in these

1437
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:51,680
Speaker 1: playoffs in this series, no doubt about it. But I

1438
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:55,080
Speaker 1: think in every series in general, offensive rebounding. You can

1439
01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:58,080
Speaker 1: get away with anything underneath the hoop. Right now, people

1440
01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:01,000
Speaker 1: are throwing bodies left and right. It's just that Draymond

1441
01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:03,120
Speaker 1: is the guy who got the most upset about it,

1442
01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:05,960
Speaker 1: stomped on a player and got suspended for it. But

1443
01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:08,240
Speaker 1: you're seeing this kind of stuff in every single game.

1444
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:10,560
Speaker 1: So Bonus is just being unleashed because he's one of

1445
01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:11,800
Speaker 1: the more physical players in the league.

1446
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:13,120
Speaker 4: He's playing basketball, baby yeah.

1447
01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:15,560
Speaker 5: Kevon Looney was asked about it, the guy who's taking

1448
01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:19,160
Speaker 5: those bows, who's playing underneath. He didn't he didn't even

1449
01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:22,479
Speaker 5: didn't even bat and eye. He said, uh, yeah, there's

1450
01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:25,400
Speaker 5: there's pushing, they're shoving, there's grabbing. It's there's big men

1451
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:29,360
Speaker 5: playing basketball and they want to win. And he said,

1452
01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:30,960
Speaker 5: I hope it continues, and I like it.

1453
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 4: And that's it. I mean, that's the end of it.

1454
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:38,360
Speaker 5: The ball's weapon is is a funny movie scene idea.

1455
01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:40,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, like, yeah, just the guy who.

1456
01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:43,560
Speaker 5: Just walks down the floor in the lane and just

1457
01:05:43,680 --> 01:05:44,280
Speaker 5: drops Like.

1458
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:47,080
Speaker 2: I legally can't do that, right, Like if Trey's guarding

1459
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:48,960
Speaker 2: me and I've picked up.

1460
01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:53,080
Speaker 3: The ball, I can't. I can't or can I like

1461
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:54,080
Speaker 3: literally use.

1462
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:55,560
Speaker 2: The ball of the weapon and just sort of punch

1463
01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 2: Tray in the face with the ball holding I don't

1464
01:05:58,440 --> 01:05:59,800
Speaker 2: think Sun sportsman.

1465
01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:01,920
Speaker 3: Like, oh, let's at teck, right, But I think what

1466
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:02,760
Speaker 3: they made is like you.

1467
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:04,800
Speaker 1: Push up on me, is going like yeah, yeah, yeah,

1468
01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 1: elbows out ball is a weapon, same thing to me. Yeah, okay,

1469
01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:10,560
Speaker 1: But you can't you can't just bost somebody in.

1470
01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:13,800
Speaker 3: The team just whining about everything. Yes, down two. Oh,

1471
01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:17,360
Speaker 3: that's what I read into this and the other They

1472
01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:18,920
Speaker 3: can win tonight, though you wouldn't count them.

1473
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,320
Speaker 5: I'll either say you either say this is taking up

1474
01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:24,080
Speaker 5: a notch either. Usually it's hey, they're getting the foul calls,

1475
01:06:24,880 --> 01:06:26,880
Speaker 5: which there's been a little bit of that out there.

1476
01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:30,320
Speaker 5: The Kings are getting the foul calls, which both teams.

1477
01:06:30,640 --> 01:06:30,880
Speaker 4: Listen.

1478
01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 5: The King's fans have been amazing and so they've had

1479
01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:35,560
Speaker 5: a couple of calls go their way. There have been

1480
01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:37,640
Speaker 5: bad calls against them as well. Yeah, but this is

1481
01:06:37,640 --> 01:06:40,640
Speaker 5: taking up a notch. Mister man is using elbows and

1482
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:41,960
Speaker 5: the ball has a weapon.

1483
01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:42,919
Speaker 3: That's what he does.

1484
01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:47,600
Speaker 5: He plays, but he has gotten hit a lot. He's

1485
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:49,080
Speaker 5: just gotten up every single time.

1486
01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:49,800
Speaker 4: This is great.

1487
01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:54,720
Speaker 2: Three game threes. Tonight six Ers NETS seven thirty pm

1488
01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:58,000
Speaker 2: tn T Philly leads US one too. Oh uh, I've

1489
01:06:58,040 --> 01:07:00,360
Speaker 2: been in control for most of this series. Then we

1490
01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:03,000
Speaker 2: have Kings Warriors at ten. That's the second game on TNT,

1491
01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:04,160
Speaker 2: Sacramento up two.

1492
01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:04,280
Speaker 5: Oh.

1493
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,600
Speaker 2: Feels like a must win for the Golden State Warriors

1494
01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:10,360
Speaker 2: here despite no Draymond Green. And then Sun's Clippers. You're

1495
01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:12,439
Speaker 2: gonna be looking at it in a little score bug

1496
01:07:12,520 --> 01:07:14,120
Speaker 2: up in the top right hand corner if you're watching

1497
01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:15,960
Speaker 2: King's Warriors. That one gets started at ten thirty on

1498
01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 2: NBA TV. That one tied at one game apiece. And

1499
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:21,400
Speaker 2: just about the officiating thing I've noticed, Trey. You were

1500
01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:23,720
Speaker 2: talking about how they have been letting them be pretty physical.

1501
01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:27,120
Speaker 2: I would agree with that, especially in first halfs Yes,

1502
01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:30,120
Speaker 2: there is a lot of physical play, and like they

1503
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:33,320
Speaker 2: swallow the whistle a lot, and then sometimes probably to

1504
01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:36,480
Speaker 2: the frustrations of teams and coaches, the whistle changes in

1505
01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:38,200
Speaker 2: some of these games in the second half and suddenly

1506
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:40,080
Speaker 2: it's like, oh, that crap you were letting X get

1507
01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:41,919
Speaker 2: away with in the first half, You're suddenly calling, which

1508
01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:43,760
Speaker 2: would be frustrating because you want it to be consistent

1509
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:46,160
Speaker 2: but yeah, I've just noticed in first half a lot

1510
01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:48,600
Speaker 2: of the games, a lot of the series go at

1511
01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:53,400
Speaker 2: it buys, smack away boys, be all the rugged Ronnie

1512
01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:54,200
Speaker 2: Garvins you want.

1513
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:57,680
Speaker 3: Canadian. By the way, I didn't know that he beat

1514
01:07:57,760 --> 01:08:02,680
Speaker 3: Greg the Hammer Valentine probably for an intercontinental. Yeah, I

1515
01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:04,960
Speaker 3: don't think he was around long two years maybe tops.

1516
01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:07,040
Speaker 3: I think he had yellow tights. Very boring.

1517
01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:09,400
Speaker 1: I can't believe you want with rugged Ronnie Garvin over

1518
01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:10,400
Speaker 1: seth freaking rollins.

1519
01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:14,840
Speaker 3: I guess he does. He does the one no, but well,

1520
01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:16,600
Speaker 3: you're gonna laugh when you see this cliff of what

1521
01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:18,280
Speaker 3: he does. You're gonna be like, that's one of his

1522
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:19,040
Speaker 3: finishing moves.

1523
01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,040
Speaker 2: Like I'm telling you, the guys land like this on

1524
01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:24,320
Speaker 2: the ground and then Rugged Ronnie Garvin would like stomp

1525
01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:28,040
Speaker 2: on a hand, stomp on a shoulder, stomp on like

1526
01:08:28,040 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 2: a little head, and then literally go around.

1527
01:08:29,960 --> 01:08:32,160
Speaker 3: Like stomp on a knee like every body part he

1528
01:08:32,320 --> 01:08:35,559
Speaker 3: was targeting. Sounds like a meme. Sounds like a potential meme.

1529
01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:40,960
Speaker 3: Create potential memes in play, guys. Uh so any anything?

1530
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:43,200
Speaker 3: Which game? I guess are you most excited about tonight?

1531
01:08:43,240 --> 01:08:43,360
Speaker 4: Here?

1532
01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:44,720
Speaker 3: With these game three?

1533
01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:47,960
Speaker 5: Well, I guess Warriors. King is gonna finally keep me

1534
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:51,320
Speaker 5: up for a late game. Got no choice. Game three.

1535
01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:52,080
Speaker 4: This is too much.

1536
01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:55,840
Speaker 5: This is playoff mode activated. This is exciting stuff. I

1537
01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:59,120
Speaker 5: want to see how the Warriors handle not having Draymond

1538
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:02,880
Speaker 5: Green out there. Being so thin up front. They tried

1539
01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:04,880
Speaker 5: their bench many many times. This is the time that

1540
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:06,519
Speaker 5: they would want James Wiseman out there.

1541
01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:09,599
Speaker 4: No, I'm just kidding, but they have enough. They have bodies.

1542
01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:12,240
Speaker 5: I just can't wait to see they This is their

1543
01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:14,000
Speaker 5: backs against the walls, the champs against the walls.

1544
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:15,800
Speaker 3: So you believe this is their season here on the line.

1545
01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:20,840
Speaker 3: The Warriors, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't think so well.

1546
01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:23,639
Speaker 3: I lock that in pretty confidently way.

1547
01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:27,519
Speaker 4: Somebody's going to do it one day. I don't know

1548
01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:29,000
Speaker 4: if it's going to be this year. No, the Kings.

1549
01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:33,120
Speaker 5: I'm interested to see if the Kings keep up what

1550
01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:35,959
Speaker 5: they've done the first two games. They've fought with tennasty

1551
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:37,479
Speaker 5: and the Warriors were doing the same. It's not like

1552
01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:40,280
Speaker 5: the Warriors were holding anything back. The Warriors and that

1553
01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:41,960
Speaker 5: at the end of the first quarter of Game two,

1554
01:09:42,240 --> 01:09:44,760
Speaker 5: Steve Kerr was pulling out every single move to get

1555
01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,639
Speaker 5: every little extra possession, there's thirty seconds left. Wigans goals

1556
01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:50,519
Speaker 5: and presses in the back court, and then all three

1557
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:53,280
Speaker 5: of their guys pressed up on the next possession, right

1558
01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:57,240
Speaker 5: up to half court, and the substitutions happening left and

1559
01:09:57,360 --> 01:10:00,400
Speaker 5: right on both sides throughout the game, more substitute then

1560
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:04,599
Speaker 5: Karen in a Starbucks line. It's happening throughout the entire

1561
01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:07,360
Speaker 5: first couple games. They're not They're not waiting for anything.

1562
01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:10,479
Speaker 5: So Kurt knows that this team is on the ropes.

1563
01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:13,400
Speaker 5: But will the Kings play the same way on the

1564
01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:17,400
Speaker 5: road with the same tenacity for two games we'll see.

1565
01:10:17,560 --> 01:10:19,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, massive test for the Kings. The Warriors are what

1566
01:10:20,040 --> 01:10:22,080
Speaker 1: thirty three and eight at home, play in a must

1567
01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:25,000
Speaker 1: win game, so this should be awesome and I guess

1568
01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:26,760
Speaker 1: they'll be interesting to see who gets the start for

1569
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:31,439
Speaker 1: Draymond Green. Kuminga, ye, John thank Minga. You think could

1570
01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:32,840
Speaker 1: be Moody, could be Moody.

1571
01:10:32,880 --> 01:10:35,400
Speaker 3: Moody was good on the glass. I don't know.

1572
01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:37,240
Speaker 1: Maybe Kuminga just let him chase Fox around for a

1573
01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:38,760
Speaker 1: little bit. He'd pick up a ton of files. But

1574
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:40,920
Speaker 1: I suppose that's something that could happen. I think for

1575
01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:43,679
Speaker 1: the Warriors, to win, they need Jordan Poole to finally

1576
01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:46,880
Speaker 1: wake up play a decent game. He's been outplayed by

1577
01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:50,360
Speaker 1: Malik Monk so far in this series, and Pool is

1578
01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:53,040
Speaker 1: just such a volatile player. Unfortunately for the Warriors thus

1579
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:55,439
Speaker 1: Fart it's gone the wrong way basically every single game.

1580
01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:57,360
Speaker 1: So they need him to step up. And it's gonna

1581
01:10:57,360 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 1: be really interesting to see if, like Mike Brown said,

1582
01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:03,040
Speaker 1: the Kings can continue to play with the two peas.

1583
01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:09,120
Speaker 3: What do you think the two peas are? Pace? Pace, power,

1584
01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:14,960
Speaker 3: no power, close though, physicality, physicality. I know what a

1585
01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:19,240
Speaker 3: curveball physicality. I only got that because my real name

1586
01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:22,200
Speaker 3: is Phil. That's the only reason. No way I would

1587
01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:26,639
Speaker 3: have got great. There's no way I would have got that. Yeah.

1588
01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:29,599
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, when we were tracking you for the Boston Marathon,

1589
01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:31,760
Speaker 1: secrets revealed.

1590
01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:37,439
Speaker 6: People like Secrets revealed sixteen seventeen years and well, speaking

1591
01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:41,679
Speaker 6: of Phil Aidelphia, something to watch tonight is that James

1592
01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:42,920
Speaker 6: Harden will actually take a free throw.

1593
01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:44,519
Speaker 3: He hadn't taken one.

1594
01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:46,840
Speaker 1: He hasn't taken a throw in seventy five minutes yet.

1595
01:11:46,960 --> 01:11:48,479
Speaker 3: Wow. Throw.

1596
01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:51,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it hasn't mattered, been playing against the nets. It

1597
01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:54,560
Speaker 1: will matter going forward Harden right now is two for

1598
01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:56,920
Speaker 1: thirteen inside the arc. Like I said, he hasn't taken

1599
01:11:56,960 --> 01:11:59,880
Speaker 1: a free throw yet. He I thought he looked fast

1600
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,479
Speaker 1: game one. He didn't do much in Game two period.

1601
01:12:03,200 --> 01:12:05,760
Speaker 1: But maybe the burst isn't totally there. If you're a

1602
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:07,880
Speaker 1: Sixers fan, you want to see it return a little

1603
01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:10,479
Speaker 1: before they go up against the stronger matchup in the

1604
01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:11,400
Speaker 1: Celtics the next round.

1605
01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:12,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true.

1606
01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:13,960
Speaker 2: And I just like, for the sake of this series,

1607
01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:17,160
Speaker 2: the Sixers Net series, which everybody believes Philadelphia is going

1608
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:21,680
Speaker 2: to win ultimately, but win that Game three Brooklyn right

1609
01:12:22,080 --> 01:12:25,400
Speaker 2: to at least at least convince ourselves.

1610
01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:27,599
Speaker 3: Oh maybe there is a series here that have very

1611
01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:30,080
Speaker 3: important Game four on the weekend. Let's must watch.

1612
01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:32,360
Speaker 2: Otherwise you know it goes up. They go down three

1613
01:12:32,360 --> 01:12:34,360
Speaker 2: to zero, and it's like, now we're just looking at

1614
01:12:34,439 --> 01:12:36,360
Speaker 2: either a gentleman's sweep, which is just a waste of

1615
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:39,639
Speaker 2: everybody's time, or an actual sweep and they just wrap

1616
01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:41,640
Speaker 2: it up very quickly. So I hope the Nets like

1617
01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:44,240
Speaker 2: give their best effort here tonight and can beat them.

1618
01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:47,679
Speaker 2: I truly believe can take one game. The Philly hasn't

1619
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:49,760
Speaker 2: played all that amazing. Either they haven't played and they

1620
01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:51,240
Speaker 2: like just they just have to turn it on for

1621
01:12:51,360 --> 01:12:52,360
Speaker 2: like a good eight minute stretch.

1622
01:12:53,040 --> 01:12:54,519
Speaker 4: Problem we will see.

1623
01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:57,840
Speaker 5: And we haven't even talked about two freaking best to

1624
01:12:57,960 --> 01:12:59,880
Speaker 5: heads players. Yes, suns closed and two are the best ever.

1625
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:03,600
Speaker 5: Kawhi going home, who's been the best player in the

1626
01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:05,519
Speaker 5: series so far, averaging thirty four and a half through

1627
01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:08,120
Speaker 5: the first two games. Can he just will his guys

1628
01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:10,840
Speaker 5: to play with him for four cards? They've been playing great.

1629
01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:13,519
Speaker 5: They had the lead in the fourth even of the loss,

1630
01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:17,720
Speaker 5: so yeah, they gotta feel ridiculously confident going home.

1631
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:20,559
Speaker 2: Hopefully we get some classics tonight. We'll be back tomorrow

1632
