Speaker 2: O cho, let's jump right into it. The US women
Speaker 2: basketball trust Japan one. Guess what ojo they They beat
Speaker 2: Japan by the same margin of victory that the men
Speaker 2: beat Serbia by twenty six points. The United States began
Speaker 2: their quest of the eighth consecutive gold medal.
Speaker 3: They haven't lost the game at the Olympics.
Speaker 2: Since nineteen ninety two, and the last time they lost
Speaker 2: to Japan was in nineteen seventy six.
Speaker 3: The game was in Montreal.
Speaker 2: All twelve members of the US team scored unlike the
Speaker 2: man Aju Wilson led the way with twenty four thirteen rebounds.
Speaker 2: Breonna Stewart out of the twenty two and eight. Chelsea
Speaker 2: Gray only had two points, but she had a record
Speaker 2: of the team high thirteen or six the US Oho,
Speaker 2: they got to do a better job of shooting the three.
Speaker 3: Japan got a thirty nine.
Speaker 2: They made fifteen, but they shot sixty seven percent from
Speaker 2: the two point Next up, it's Belgium on Thursday watching
Speaker 2: the game. Oh, Jo, what do you like about what
Speaker 2: you saw from the ladies as they dominated this Japans
Speaker 2: start to.
Speaker 5: Finish the ladies, they just out there having fun. Yet
Speaker 5: they out there having fun obviously, like you s stated
Speaker 5: and everybody knows, I don't think there's any competition for them.
Speaker 5: I think they are that much better across the board.
Speaker 5: Then everybody listen to women. Team is on a fifty
Speaker 5: six game winning streat on thirty seven of the last
Speaker 5: fifty six game have a winning margin of at least
Speaker 5: twenty points or over twenty points. I mean, all they
Speaker 5: have to do you said they need to shoot better
Speaker 5: from three. I think even if they don't make the threes,
Speaker 5: mid range layups, anything on the board, rebounds, I just
Speaker 5: nobody had nobody stands a chance but watching them play
Speaker 5: and the joy that they play in the game, of
Speaker 5: basketball with representing US man is a beautiful thing to see.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the.
Speaker 2: Thing is o cho. But see, here is the problem
Speaker 2: that you run into. All of a sudden, you let
Speaker 2: somebody get up. You only got up. They got up
Speaker 2: nineteen more threes than you did. Now they may fifteen.
Speaker 2: Let's just say, for the sake of argument, you get
Speaker 2: one of these teams, then all of a sudden, they
Speaker 2: go twenty five or thirty nine and you go four
Speaker 2: of twenty because the three ball is the equal line.
Speaker 2: Those are why guys that all of a sudden, I
Speaker 2: don't need to jump out the gym. I don't need
Speaker 2: to be selling foot tall, because if I could make
Speaker 2: that that's three to two, I make three of those.
Speaker 2: You gotta make three two point shots just to equal
Speaker 2: what I did in two shots. Right, So yeah, I
Speaker 2: agree with you. Asian Wilson and Breonna Stewart only paid
Speaker 2: twenty six minutes, but they were dominant fourteen to eighteen
Speaker 2: from the free throw line. And that's where the advantage
Speaker 2: that we have. And then we can come off the bench.
Speaker 2: You come off the bench with Britney Griner, Kelsey Plumb,
Speaker 2: Khalil Copper, Jewel Low, I mean, we just have so
Speaker 2: much depth.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's the thing. That's the thing what you
Speaker 5: just said, we have so much depth. And let's say
Speaker 5: this so happened. Hypothetically speaking, they meet a team that's
Speaker 5: efficient from three. I think they're a Swiss that they
Speaker 5: can turn on and take things to an even higher
Speaker 5: level and play even more.
Speaker 1: Efficient than what they're doing right now.
Speaker 2: We did going to a game fifty five percent from
Speaker 2: the floor eleven fifteen, ten of sixteen. Chelsea Gray was
Speaker 2: one of five, DT only played only shot one of two.
Speaker 3: She didn't put the ball up that much. Alyssa Thomas
Speaker 3: was one of four.
Speaker 2: Britney Grinder was four seven Sabrina net Schul was four
Speaker 2: of six, Jackie Young was one on one, Kelsey Plum
Speaker 2: was four of six, Khalil Copper was two or four.
Speaker 2: Jewel Long was all three, but she had made two
Speaker 2: three throws. We're dominant, we're big. You look at our girls.
Speaker 2: I mean we go, what, Asia's probably six three six four,
Speaker 2: Stewart's probably six three six four, h Nafisia Calliser Collier,
Speaker 2: Noisia Collier, Well she's six three and then you go
Speaker 2: six seven of the half, six eight Brittney Grinder coming
Speaker 2: off the bench.
Speaker 3: Alyssa Thomas, we just got so much. We just have sive.
Speaker 2: We got guards that can handle the ball. We can
Speaker 2: shoot the ball from the perimeter. A nescul can shoot
Speaker 2: the three. Kelseon Plum can shoot the three. We have
Speaker 2: a lot of girls that even Stewart but I start,
Speaker 2: didn't shoot them, didn't shoot the three. They were over
Speaker 2: oh for four, five, six, they were oh for six.
Speaker 2: But they dominated so much inside because and on what
Speaker 2: we have thirty seven, we had fifty six rebounds, they
Speaker 2: had twenty seven. See that's the difference to your ball
Speaker 2: right there. Oh Joe, you got you get out rebounded
Speaker 2: by almost thirty. You're probably gonna lose by rode margin.
Speaker 5: M h every time, every time.
Speaker 2: Congratulations lady, keep the great work up one or two
Speaker 2: the seventy six over Japan.
Speaker 1: Go ahead on Joe before before we leave.
Speaker 5: Is there a team that you can think of that
Speaker 5: has an opportunity or a chance to even challenge the
Speaker 5: young ladies?
Speaker 3: Well, I think they didn't.
Speaker 2: They played They played Japan in the gold medal round
Speaker 2: for a couple of years ago and it was closed
Speaker 2: because they made the three.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: But if you're not making the three because remember that's
Speaker 2: the neutralizer. No matter what, if you're making that shot.
Speaker 2: Now everything is is a level playing field. But do
Speaker 2: I believe that some one you're probably gonna have to
Speaker 2: shoot about sixty and you're gonna need to get up
Speaker 2: forty plus in order.
Speaker 3: For you to beat these ladies.
Speaker 2: That's just me because we're too we're too we're too
Speaker 2: dominated inside. We're gonna crush you on the on the glass,
Speaker 2: on the offensive glast the defensive glass. Asian Wilson had
Speaker 2: six offensive rebounds written the ground a half for they
Speaker 2: had nineteen offensive rebounds. So, to make a long story short,
Speaker 2: they had almost as many offensive rebounds as Japan had
Speaker 2: total rebounds.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so is there a team you think that they're
Speaker 5: gonna see they can even give them an inkland of
Speaker 5: a chance to give them a challenge.
Speaker 2: Don't see it. I think they I think they only
Speaker 2: beat Belgium. Was it Belgium that they played ash in
Speaker 2: the in the world in the feb and they won
Speaker 2: by a couple of points. But I don't think. I
Speaker 2: don't think Asia was there at the time and saw
Speaker 2: a lot of the players that are playing now, they're
Speaker 2: they but I don't owe jo because, like I said,
Speaker 2: although it is a global game, you don't see the
Speaker 2: international born players playing in the w NBA like you
Speaker 2: see on the men's side. Men's side got sixty plus
Speaker 2: international players on NBA team, like I said, and there
Speaker 2: are no Lauren Jackson's. Lauren Jackson was the Seattle Storm.
Speaker 2: She won three MVPs. They want a title. If that
Speaker 2: level of talent currently in the NBA on the international side,
Speaker 2: I don't see it. I don't see it right, But hey,
Speaker 2: I ain't mad. I mean it used to be. I
Speaker 2: mean for the longest time, the Asian companies was dominating
Speaker 2: his spot.
Speaker 3: And ain't nobody feel bad for us? Get better? No? Yes,
Speaker 3: you just got to step up your game up.
Speaker 1: That's it, none more, none less.
Speaker 2: Steven Netta Rossik clutch palmer horse routine powers the US
Speaker 2: to a historic Olympic bronze and men's just gymnastics. The
Speaker 2: US men gymnastics gymnastics teams won its first medal in
Speaker 2: sixteen years. Japan took no, China took silver. And if
Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken, I think I was reading he was
Speaker 2: added just for this. Yeah, because he's that elite on
Speaker 2: that apparatus. The difference between the men and the women.
Speaker 2: The women have four events, the men have six. The
Speaker 2: women have floor vault, uh what uneven bars? Uneven bars
Speaker 2: and the beans and the men obviously they have the vault,
Speaker 2: they have the floor, but they have the pomel horse,
Speaker 2: they have the high bar, they have the the rings
Speaker 2: which is all my goodness, the strength that they just
Speaker 2: flit those guys all yes, and it's not being look guys,
Speaker 2: not being sacrilegious. But when you hold yourself in that
Speaker 2: cross like poles out like this cool. You're talking about
Speaker 2: the shoulder strength a core poor and shoulder strength unbelievable. Nah,
Speaker 2: I ain't holding myself out like that right there. I
Speaker 2: mean you think, I mean, think about it. I mean yeah,
Speaker 2: and I know, oh jo, those I mean the guys
Speaker 2: probably the heaviest one probably maybe one sixty, but you're
Speaker 2: talking about one thirty five, you talking about one forty five.
Speaker 2: But still, oh, you think it's easy if you win one,
Speaker 2: take your ass outside to try to hold yourself up,
Speaker 2: you see, matter.
Speaker 5: Of fact, and forget having it and forget to have
Speaker 5: in the rings. Try to do it on the monkey bars,
Speaker 5: try to do it on the monkey bars.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I love I love watching gymnastics.
Speaker 2: I love the height in which they go on the vault,
Speaker 2: small boses when you do the flip, because it ain't
Speaker 2: no more, it ain't fun no more to just run
Speaker 2: up there and just hit your people, put your hands
Speaker 2: on the on the you know, on the vault. Nah,
Speaker 2: you gotta flip, you got twist, you gotta do like
Speaker 2: three or four things before you even get there.
Speaker 3: I'm like, what damn. Yeah, yeah, y'all.
Speaker 2: They taking it to a new level. And the the
Speaker 2: the degree of difficulty, because that's what you're measuring them on.
Speaker 2: It is I mean, even if she doesn't land it perfect,
Speaker 2: nobody else can do it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's so. That's what makes that's what
Speaker 5: makes it special.
Speaker 2: She's so great. She's competing. There are very few people
Speaker 2: that compete against themselves. She's competing against herself. Nobody else
Speaker 2: can do the moves that she does. They can't do
Speaker 2: what she does on the floor. They can't do what
Speaker 2: she does.
Speaker 3: On the vault. Right, So.
Speaker 2: If you judging it fairly, like can anybody can raise
Speaker 2: your hand if you can do that?
Speaker 5: No, listen, it's not And the funny thing about it
Speaker 5: is raise your hand and see if you can do this,
Speaker 5: But can you do it right in the one time
Speaker 5: where it counts?
Speaker 3: Oh no, no, I mean think about it. That's where the.
Speaker 1: Pressure, that's where the pressure comes in at.
Speaker 2: I think I'm trying to think of the lady that
Speaker 2: did a did a bowls a move, because she has
Speaker 2: six moves named after in competition, only one other woman
Speaker 2: has ever landed it in competition other than the woman that.
Speaker 3: It was named after after. That's thinking for a second, O.
Speaker 1: Joe, that's difficult, man.
Speaker 3: Let's just say give it.
Speaker 2: For example, Let's just say, in the course of a game,
Speaker 2: only one other person in the history of the game
Speaker 2: has ever made a one hand catch in the game.
Speaker 2: M that's what you're that's what you're comparing it to
Speaker 2: not practice in a game. She's the only person outside
Speaker 2: of some own bows to land this move in a competition.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Let alone attempted. She actually landed it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So congratulations ladies the US women's national basketball team.
Speaker 3: Then you guys win one O two seventy six.
Speaker 2: Congratulations to the men gymnastics team bringing home bronze medal,
Speaker 2: first medal in sixteen years. Novak Djokovic, Nara and Nadal
Speaker 2: in the sixtieth impossible last minute had to add six
Speaker 2: one sixty four the victory for the joker the same
Speaker 2: place where the doll when fourteen French Open titles. You
Speaker 2: know he's not the same the ball the doll. He
Speaker 2: plays such a physical game. The injuries have taken his toll.
Speaker 2: That's not to disc take regular no back. He's the
Speaker 2: greatest tennis player ever, no matter what you think of it.
Speaker 2: A lot of people don't like he rubbed them the
Speaker 2: wrong way, but based on what he's been able to do,
Speaker 2: he's beaten all the great in their prime. He beat that,
Speaker 2: he beating the doll, he beat Murray, I don't know.
Speaker 2: And he has what twenty five twenty four to twenty
Speaker 2: five majors. I don't know how you can say he's
Speaker 2: not the goat. Yeah, he's one of the greatest of
Speaker 2: all time based on he ain't. Yeah, yeah, because you
Speaker 2: all the guys that he beat. Nadal has over twenty majors. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Federal was graceful. He was to be Federal, the Swiss maestro.
Speaker 2: But when you look at it, O Joe Federal has
Speaker 2: twenty majors. Yeah, think about how many times Joker beating.
Speaker 2: Nadal has twenty one majors. Think about how many times
Speaker 2: he beating So he's beaten them on their best surface.
Speaker 2: Bad is a grass, He's.
Speaker 3: Grateful, he's he's a swan.
Speaker 2: He's a ballerina on grass, right, right, right, Joker beating
Speaker 2: on clay. Nadal has fourteen Grant slams on clay. Rolan ghettos.
Speaker 3: Joker beating.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he's beating you. If I beat you on
Speaker 2: your best surface, you with time. I'm in my prime,
Speaker 2: I got more majors.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, listen, those matchups are those matchups are always
Speaker 5: good though, anytime anytime Joker and the Dog met up,
Speaker 5: especially in their prime.
Speaker 1: Yeah, miny, they played.
Speaker 5: They played sixty times, sixty Yeah, he played sixty times.
Speaker 5: And obviously this this this matching dog just need a
Speaker 5: hip surgery now, not not less than a year ago,
Speaker 5: so he's probably not even fully here, fully healthy. But again,
Speaker 5: they both had phenomenal careers and Joker probably is the best.
Speaker 2: I mean, na Doll hits the ball with so much torque,
Speaker 2: core muscle. If you notice every time he goes down,
Speaker 2: it's core muscle. It's a risk injury. Because he's putting
Speaker 2: so much torque on the ball. But it was great
Speaker 2: to watch watching the doll in Federal in their prime,
Speaker 2: it was great to watch them. I mean, let's think
Speaker 2: in if you go back and look at it, think
Speaker 2: about how few people actually won majors. You'll never see
Speaker 2: this again in any sport. Three guys dominated. I mean
Speaker 2: out of the last what eighty majors, they've won like
Speaker 2: seventy five of them. Yeah, most definitely the Poltrow you get,
Speaker 2: Depot you get, Uh, you get, and Murray that's it.
Speaker 3: Oh and stan wall Winker he's a Swiss player also.
Speaker 5: Now, the funny thing about it is, when you think
Speaker 5: about all Joker has accomplished as far as Accolades is concerned,
Speaker 5: I think there is one player that might have a
Speaker 5: chance to come close or maybe even surpass him, and
Speaker 5: that's Carlos Carlos Alcaraz Alchoraz thot Alcaraz is phenomenal in
Speaker 5: such an early time in his career. He just beat
Speaker 5: just beat Joker maybe two weeks ago at Wimbledon, if
Speaker 5: if I'm not mistaken. So he's a phenomenal talent. He
Speaker 5: is a phenomenal talent and he's very young and it
Speaker 5: has a long way to go. And if you can
Speaker 5: stay healthy, boy, the sky's a limit for young bull.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you and the thing is that that that that.
Speaker 2: But you look at Joker, he didn't have that intestinal
Speaker 2: fortitude early. Now he reinvented himself where he would dig down.
Speaker 2: He would get down a couple of sets like I
Speaker 2: can't win, and he packed it up.
Speaker 1: You pack it up?
Speaker 3: Oh not anymore, not anymore. I think it flipped for him.
Speaker 2: I think that was eight At the US Open, Fed
Speaker 2: had match point on his racket twice. Joker held him off.
Speaker 2: That was kind of the beginning and that was kind
Speaker 2: of the beginning of Novak djokobit.
Speaker 3: But it was great. I agree with you.
Speaker 2: To see these guys, we've never seen anything like it.
Speaker 2: I'm old enough to remember remember be on board when
Speaker 2: he dominated on clay because for the longest time, Oh Joe,
Speaker 2: all the surfaces were the same. You played on grass.
Speaker 2: You went down to Australia, it was grass, the US
Speaker 2: it was grass wimbled. The only difference in the surface
Speaker 2: was when you went to Roland Garrow the French Open,
Speaker 2: it was clay. Right now, you have you know, now
Speaker 2: you have two hard courts, which is the Australian Open
Speaker 2: and the US Open. You have grass which is Wimbledon,
Speaker 2: and you have clay which is you know, Roland Garrels uh.
Speaker 2: And so I'm old enough to remember of the old
Speaker 2: guard Board beat us Jerelias and you had uh Stephan Edinburgh,
Speaker 2: and you had Peter sam Prest and you had running Yeah, man,
Speaker 2: you had Michael Stee, you had all those.
Speaker 3: I remember those got a.
Speaker 1: Courier chain, Michael Chang, I remember.
Speaker 3: That was that was probably the glory.
Speaker 2: Now you get you had the joker thedal and Federal
Speaker 2: dominating them, Like what damn?
Speaker 3: Because you know if you had to go through those
Speaker 3: guys mm hmm.
Speaker 2: I mean maybe you're like, man, I should hope, well,
Speaker 2: maybe Federal can knock off the medal and then maybe
Speaker 2: I got a chance. But just thinking if you had
Speaker 2: to run, if you had to run the gamut and
Speaker 2: you had to beat two of those in a major.
Speaker 3: Happening, but it didn't happen often.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it didn't happen often. But it's tough.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: Nadal certainly seems that this could be close to retirement.
Speaker 2: He has had two injury field season. He even he
Speaker 2: four go, he skipped the uh, the French which is
Speaker 2: his favorite surface, is best surface, because he was kind
Speaker 2: of trying to save it for this. Yeah, he had
Speaker 2: needed to help surge a little more than a year ago.
Speaker 2: Or recently spoke about twenty twenty four being his farewell
Speaker 2: check us out out Joe American rhyme.
Speaker 3: Murphy secured the bronze medal and the undemeter best broke
Speaker 3: final at the Olympics Monday, but it was certainly a start.

Speaker 2: fruition and some you got to stand on the medal.
Speaker 2: That nothing wrong with being the third best person in
Speaker 2: the world at an event. Yeah, everybody wants to go.
Speaker 2: Let's let's let's not get I said, everybody wants to
Speaker 2: be number one, O Joe. But yeah, if I give
Speaker 2: you everything, I got Ojo, I can't. It's just like
Speaker 2: a football game, Ojoe. And you tell Mike, I said, Mike,
Speaker 2: you know that guy got a check too. I said,
Speaker 2: if I go out there and give a guy every
Speaker 2: if I give you everything I got, because I know
Speaker 2: what I put in and during the course of the week,
Speaker 2: I know the prep that I that led up to
Speaker 2: getting on that field on a Sunday or whatever the
Speaker 2: day it is.
Speaker 3: Get beat. I mean, what you want me to do.
Speaker 1: And you listen.
Speaker 5: You win some, you lose something. But anytime you can
Speaker 5: represent your country, hunk, and you can meddle.
Speaker 1: You know you want gold.
Speaker 5: Well, we all want go. You put in four years
Speaker 5: worth of work to get to this point. Sometimes you
Speaker 5: can't win them all. But if you can meddle, if
Speaker 5: you get silver, if you get bronze, Man, I'm up
Speaker 5: there with a smile.
Speaker 1: Even if you know we all want go. We all
Speaker 1: want to be number one.
Speaker 2: You know, as long as you give it your best,
Speaker 2: as long as that man, if I'd have done this,
Speaker 2: as long as there's no I'd have done this.
Speaker 3: In the back of my mind, right you good? O't Joe?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean There're been some games I'm like Damn.
Speaker 2: I don't know why I tried that move. I don't
Speaker 2: know why I tried to. I should have just went
Speaker 2: arm over or I should have did this. I should
Speaker 2: have You know you got that in the back. But
Speaker 2: sometimes a dude covered my best route.
Speaker 3: Mm hmm, hey four, you gotta win, hell, I thought
Speaker 3: I was gonna win. You thought I would have. You
Speaker 3: thought I would right, right right? You know what I
Speaker 3: found out? A I told. I told my position coach
Speaker 3: what time? I said, BP, I said, you know what
Speaker 3: I found out. I found out them guys study take too.
Speaker 3: You know that we ain't only want to watch Dayton.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they get paid to.
Speaker 3: BP. He made more money than me. Check this out
Speaker 3: on Joe.
Speaker 2: Canada is appealing it six point deduction levet by FIFA
Speaker 2: against Olympics women's soccer team. That's them from his staff
Speaker 2: for flying a drone over New Zealand's training session before
Speaker 2: the start of the Paris game. The Canadian Olympic Committee
Speaker 2: and Canada Soccer filed an appeal with the Court of
Speaker 2: Arbitration c.
Speaker 3: AS on Monday.
Speaker 2: Argument and fairly, it unfairly punishes the athlete for the action.
Speaker 2: They had no part of what goes.
Speaker 1: On, hold on, wait a minute, Yeah, yeah, why are you.
Speaker 3: Le mess your question?
Speaker 2: O Joe, Why do you think the coach will whomever
Speaker 2: responsible with this was flying the drone over the practice.
Speaker 3: Do you not think they were not going to pass
Speaker 3: that information down to the to the players. And they did.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, That's the whole point. That's the whole point. But
Speaker 5: you know, you know the funny thing about it. When
Speaker 5: I think about let's say, if you do have information,
Speaker 5: you have drone information on what the tactics are and
Speaker 5: what they're gonna do as far as practice goes. When
Speaker 5: I think about the game of soccer, think about the
Speaker 5: game of soccer, I'm not sure what type of information
Speaker 5: you can give. It would probably it would probably help you.
Speaker 5: It would probably help in a sense, But you still
Speaker 5: have to go out there and execute. You still have
Speaker 5: to go out there and score. You still have to
Speaker 5: go out there and pass. Let me ask you a question,
Speaker 5: O Joe, why do people rob banks because that's where
Speaker 5: the money is. If you were not going to get
Speaker 5: any information, why would you do it. It's like it's
Speaker 5: the same argument that they used in Spygate.
Speaker 2: Well you still got well, if you weren't going to
Speaker 2: get if you weren't gathering anything. Think about how much
Speaker 2: time you spend your time on things you think they're
Speaker 2: gonna run.
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: How many Let me ask you a question, how many
Speaker 2: teams you think that defensive coordinators devote time to the wildcat?
Speaker 3: Now? None? You know why, because they don't believe anybody's
Speaker 3: gonna run it. Right.
Speaker 2: So, if you're gonna, if you, if you're gonna go
Speaker 2: to the length that you're gonna take a drone to
Speaker 2: fly over someone's practice, unto you believe you can gather
Speaker 2: information that's gonna help you out a later day?
Speaker 3: Time is really that simple?
Speaker 1: Right, you're right, You're right, I.
Speaker 3: Mean, mad man, they stole the cold? Well, why you
Speaker 3: stole the cold? Man? I just did? Oh you stole
Speaker 3: somebody's computer. Cold You hack somebody's computer for what? For information?
Speaker 1: Information?
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's something on that that you felt could be beneficial.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: If it's really that simple, So this notion that oh,
Speaker 2: you stole something or you did something that was well,
Speaker 2: you still gotta go out there and play the game. Well,
Speaker 2: it's a lot easy to play the game if I
Speaker 2: know what they're doing. Yes, yes, that's why they kept
Speaker 2: doing it. Let me ask you a question, Ojo, do
Speaker 2: you believe no, I'm saying, do you believe coach Belichick
Speaker 2: would have stopped spygate had he not been caught, would
Speaker 2: ever stopped it on his own?
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm sure.
Speaker 2: I think about think about how much money Pablo made.
Speaker 2: They say Pablo Escobar was doing a billion dollars a week. Yeah,
Speaker 2: billion dollars a year. Why not just quit?
Speaker 5: You got?
Speaker 2: I thought that's what you did. You know, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: retire money. I'm gonna retire to tell me. Somebody gonna
Speaker 2: get that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, You're right.
Speaker 3: You ain't.
Speaker 5: The world.
Speaker 2: And think about this, o Joe. You had already won
Speaker 2: three Super Bowls doing that? You not stopping?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Mm hmm, Well I have a question. Yes, how
Speaker 5: mean did you win after you can do spigate no more?
Speaker 3: You still won? But here's the thing.
Speaker 2: That's like saying you get pop for peds and it's like,
Speaker 2: well he hit the home run, but he hit home
Speaker 2: runs afterwards. That still don't take away that you cheated
Speaker 2: before though we caught you. That that Yeah, okay, Ojo,
Speaker 2: you might not cheat anymore. You know what, o Jo,
Speaker 2: you might not have cheated, but we did catch you
Speaker 2: and bezzling some fun. Now, you might have went on
Speaker 2: the straight and narrow after that, but what we supposed
Speaker 2: are we supposed to overlook what you did before that?
Speaker 1: Nah, No, overlook it.
Speaker 5: But what it does say is, you know what, well,
Speaker 5: you ain't even need to do no goddamn spiggate because
Speaker 5: you probably would have won them anyway.
Speaker 3: We'll never know. We'll never I mean we won't. We can't. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we become because we can only go by the information
Speaker 3: that we have have, Yes, sir, that's it. Uh, Steve
Speaker 3: Kurk is Jason Tatum have playing time against today. Let's
Speaker 3: take a listen to what Steve Kerr had to say.
Speaker 3: And this is the.
Speaker 6: For sure, the hardest part of this job is, you know,
Speaker 6: sitting at least a couple of guys who are world class,
Speaker 6: you know, some of the very best players on Earth,
Speaker 6: and it you know, the one hand, it makes no
Speaker 6: sense at all.
Speaker 3: On the other it's.
Speaker 6: I'm asking these guys to just commit to winning, you know,
Speaker 6: one game and then move on to the next one.
Speaker 3: I have to do the same thing.
Speaker 6: And so I felt like last night that was that
Speaker 6: those are the combinations that made them sense Jason'll play tomorrow.
Speaker 6: You know it's I'm not going to answer your next question,
Speaker 6: which is if you place who doesn't, but we're gonna
Speaker 6: need him, and part of this job for me is
Speaker 6: to keep everybody.
Speaker 3: Engaged and ready. It's hard Ojo.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I say, that's one of the best players in
Speaker 2: the world. He's the only first team All NBA player
Speaker 2: is on the roster.
Speaker 3: Yeah. And he didn't play a minute. Yeah, he didn't
Speaker 3: even take his sweat his jacket off. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I say, I said it. I said it last night.
Speaker 1: I said it last night.
Speaker 5: The pressure that is on Steve Kher to give all
Speaker 5: the players happy, to make sure everybody gets minutes is
Speaker 5: very difficult. And I think he only came out today
Speaker 5: because of the backlash from the media and the backlash
Speaker 5: from the fans.
Speaker 1: So many people. That's the comment.
Speaker 3: That's not.
Speaker 2: That's not Christian Ladner in nineteen ninety two. He's the
Speaker 2: only collegiate player against all the other VISA All World,
Speaker 2: All NBA All Star players. We know what Jordan and
Speaker 2: Magic and all the we know what they were. This
Speaker 2: is not that Jason Tatum is a champion. He's a
Speaker 2: three time first team All NBA selection. He's a perennial
Speaker 2: All Star, so it's not comparable to him being in
Speaker 2: a situation like Christian Latner on the ninety two Dream Team,
Speaker 2: where you have eleven pros, one cock collegiate player and
Speaker 2: all these guys Jason Tatem like, hold on, bro, I
Speaker 2: get I get Brian, I get KD, I get step
Speaker 2: If I can't go in for something for them, but
Speaker 2: I've a damn if I got to take a back
Speaker 2: seat to everybody else else.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's great, especially coming especially after coming off of NBA. Yes,
Speaker 5: I know you think he was upset. Did he look
Speaker 5: visibly upset?
Speaker 6: Man?
Speaker 2: Please understank about what I just said. He's a three
Speaker 2: time first team All NBA selection, he's a perennial a
Speaker 2: All Star, and he just won the championship. He didn't
Speaker 2: take his you, he didn't take his warm up jacket off,
Speaker 2: O Joe, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5: So that means he already knew. That means a conversation
Speaker 5: that was before the game.
Speaker 2: No, the arena's cold, so you guys, You know, guys
Speaker 2: always when they're sitting on the bench, they especially if
Speaker 2: they come out of the game. But he never win
Speaker 2: the game, so you keep the jacket on to stay warm.
Speaker 2: So when you know, hey, hey, uh.
Speaker 5: Tatum, you know, and then they okay, okay, I got you,
Speaker 5: I got you, I got you, I got you. Ship.
Speaker 5: I could imagine the conversation they have and as players. Hey,
Speaker 5: you know, you know they making they making jokes now, no, no, no, no, nothing,
Speaker 5: not in.
Speaker 2: This situation, not in this situation. Now after we win
Speaker 2: the yeah, no, the way back on yo, all the
Speaker 2: way back. He because you know how Joe like we
Speaker 2: be in a game, somebody get blowed up, somebody you
Speaker 2: you okay, we let that face lie.
Speaker 1: But oh boy, yeah, oh no, hey listen you saw
Speaker 1: some of the memes.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, for sure.
Speaker 5: You know them boys, man, them jokes is flying. Now, hey,
Speaker 5: them jokes and them jokes, them jokes is flying.
Speaker 2: I don't think, oh they're different than us. Now now
Speaker 2: you get beat, Now you get beat. But come on,
Speaker 2: think about it. Now you know your best player. They
Speaker 2: ain't give you no jokes. Now, you ain't making no cars,
Speaker 2: ain't gotten blown up. You ain't make no jokes. You
Speaker 2: just got blown up. You ain't make no you hey,
Speaker 2: you let a little time slide. Now we win the
Speaker 2: gold medal. Hey, you win the gold medal. First thing
Speaker 2: you say, Hey, j T, you gotta get yours back.
Speaker 2: You ain't playing all the game.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. I'm just telling you what's
Speaker 3: gonna be saying.
Speaker 2: Cause middle situation where we had guys that really didn't
Speaker 2: play in the postseason, and you know, they show up
Speaker 2: for the reserve on them, like why are you here?
Speaker 3: What you do?
Speaker 2: You must to cut the grass or you have gotten
Speaker 2: you boss up because you damn play. You know, you
Speaker 2: make fun of a situation then, but it's too wrong
Speaker 2: right now?
Speaker 3: O Joe? Oh he feeling some type of way.
Speaker 5: Now, hey, listen, they don't I don't know, man, just
Speaker 5: being around them boys. Man, now, boy, don't play now
Speaker 5: and they and they wanted they want to catch you
Speaker 5: when it's fresh right out of the oven. So it's
Speaker 5: I'm telling you, man, Katie ain't playing. Steph is a comedian.
Speaker 5: Who else we got over there? Man gonna let it fight?
Speaker 4: Oh you.
Speaker 5: Ain't ain't letting that slide.
Speaker 3: Man, I'm telling you. I can, I can, I can
Speaker 3: hear the jokes right now. I don't think if j
Speaker 3: T doesn't sub for Lebron, Steph KD. You think he's
Speaker 3: cool with that.
Speaker 2: You're talking about guys that are MVP's final MVPs.
Speaker 3: We know what Lebron represents, we know what Step feels,
Speaker 3: we know who KD is.
Speaker 2: But he said, hold on, you mean to tell me
Speaker 2: everybody else outside of those three better than me?
Speaker 3: M I can't you mean to tell him I can't
Speaker 3: get two minutes? Okay?
Speaker 2: Oh, Joe were up by we up bout eighteen with
Speaker 2: four minutes the left.
Speaker 3: You can't bring your boy in now.
Speaker 1: Now that's even more disrespectful.
Speaker 5: Put me in with the lad that put me in
Speaker 5: the game the last four minutes, and I ain't played
Speaker 5: all games.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's tough.
Speaker 2: I mean, he's it was a tough spot regardless because
Speaker 2: as JT has been a superstar player, he knows what
Speaker 2: it's like to see guys on the bench and don't
Speaker 2: get in the game. Yeah, he just never thought it
Speaker 2: would happen to him him And then, like you said,
Speaker 2: I mean, it's been a situation like, hey, you didn't
Speaker 2: like Hell, no, I ain't going in there. Hell you
Speaker 2: know I got your coach, No, I ain't going in
Speaker 2: I'm good you good, y'all got it.

Speaker 5: that's messed up. He gonna he's gonna gonna play this
Speaker 5: game now listen. Now, look all that is is added
Speaker 5: pressure on him to now not everybody watching him. So
Speaker 5: when they played it the next game and Jason Tatum
Speaker 5: is in there, what you think everybody's expecting right.
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: You got to go in there and cut a food?
Speaker 4: What?
Speaker 2: Look, we didn't need to go and do something bad.
Speaker 2: It's ouse to day because they feeling good about themselves.

Speaker 2: Jaylen Brown did not take Grant Hill's recent comments about
Speaker 2: US basketball decision to replace Kawhi with Dereck White and
Speaker 2: not Brown on the man's national team for Paris Olympics.
Speaker 2: Hill said, I think this idea that it's a conspiracy theory.
Speaker 2: I always love a good conspiracy theory. But it what
Speaker 2: But it was really truly a basketball decision. There are
Speaker 2: tough decisions. You want to find the right ballance in
Speaker 2: the right pieces on the court that we needed. Jalen
Speaker 2: tweeted that Grant calling me a conspiracy theorist is disappointing.
Speaker 2: I've been VP since I was twenty one years of
Speaker 2: old and have a great understanding.
Speaker 5: Is it politics? Now, this is something that you would know.
Speaker 5: It's politics and everything it is. There is politics in
Speaker 5: everything in the world. Now when it comes to basketball
Speaker 5: and the shoe that you represent or the shoe that
Speaker 5: you're endorsed by, does that really matter? What does that
Speaker 5: have to do with anything when it comes to playing
Speaker 5: a team USA. Now that I don't understand, and you
Speaker 5: can probably educate me on that. I mean, give me
Speaker 5: another history lesson.
Speaker 2: I mean the guy guys with Nike, Step Courage, with
Speaker 2: under Armor and managed with Adidas.
Speaker 3: I think Jorland beats with Sketchers.
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean who is who is who is Jaylen
Speaker 1: Brown with?
Speaker 3: I think he's by himself.
Speaker 2: He was with Nike, but you know he started crossing
Speaker 2: the Nike swoosh out and he kind of I guess
Speaker 2: he's doing his own thing.
Speaker 3: I don't know who he's with.
Speaker 5: Oh so, okay, that that might that might be an issue.
Speaker 5: Now everybody got upset for internal issues, but I don't.
Speaker 5: I don't get bro.
Speaker 3: There have been a lot.
Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta be something.
Speaker 3: Greg Hill says, I'm trying to find the right.
Speaker 5: Balance, Yes, sir, and it's it's it's it's it's not
Speaker 5: easy to find.
Speaker 2: The right ballance because obviously, did you hear what they said.
Speaker 2: They said the only three that did not have the
Speaker 2: trial with Steph Curry, Lebron James and Kevin Durant. You're
Speaker 2: talking about three of the most popular players. Lebron is
Speaker 2: the most popular player, Steph is number two, KD is
Speaker 2: somewhere around in the top five. Okay, you KD. This
Speaker 2: is your fourth Olympics. Lebron, this is your fourth Olympics. Steph,
Speaker 2: You've never been on the LIBIC.
Speaker 3: Hey, Bro, we love to have you. Everybody else, I
Speaker 3: mean Jalen bro come home.
Speaker 2: You get mad when Stephen they said that someone called
Speaker 2: and said he's not marketable. State your source. Well that's
Speaker 2: the source you got left at home and you're the
Speaker 2: finals MVP. You're the Eastern Conference MVP. I think I
Speaker 2: think Jaylen Brown is phenomenal. I think what he does
Speaker 2: in his community. But those are two separate things. You
Speaker 2: can see the notion of just take Ig for example. Yes,
Speaker 2: so you know there are people that got twenty in
Speaker 2: thirty and fifty million followers, and.
Speaker 3: You're like, what the hell a day? Yes, sir, you
Speaker 3: can be.
Speaker 2: A good player and not be popular. You can be
Speaker 2: popular and not a good player. Everything is not a conspiracy.
Speaker 3: What I mean? He probably thinking he got left out
Speaker 3: because it was Nike, and you know.
Speaker 5: So what would the answer be, because to me it
Speaker 5: doesn't makes sense. To me, I'm not a conspiracy theorist,
Speaker 5: but the whole thing he was with Nike at one point,
Speaker 5: not with Nike anymore, whatever happened internally being left off
Speaker 5: the I mean, it kind of makes sense on why,
Speaker 5: and I think he might know why.
Speaker 3: But I think the thing is O Joe. But the
Speaker 3: question is, I don't think he was in the pool
Speaker 3: to begin with. What come on?
Speaker 1: Now, you don't think so?
Speaker 3: I don't know. I think they tried to find it.
Speaker 2: Look, okay, who can play around Steph Lebron and kd Okay,
Speaker 2: think about it?
Speaker 5: Any of the any of the top players.
Speaker 2: Oh oh yo, think about it. They took holiday. Why,
Speaker 2: he's a defensive guy. We need you to pick up.
Speaker 2: They might have their best player. He might be a guard.
Speaker 2: He might be six six sixty seven and below. We
Speaker 2: need you to hound him. Look at Holiday. Are there
Speaker 2: better players in the NBA than than your Holiday?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 3: Yes, but he fit Derek White fits.
Speaker 1: From a defensive from a defensive standpoint.
Speaker 3: And but here's the thing, this is what I want
Speaker 3: to know. Chat y'all chime in with this.
Speaker 2: If that had what had happened to Jason Tatum had
Speaker 2: happened to Jaylen Brown, how would have handled it?
Speaker 3: Mm hmm Yeah, I see that look on your faith, O, Joe.
Speaker 1: You think you would have complained?
Speaker 3: I'm asking you not just post the question to you.
Speaker 1: That's a good one.
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 5: I don't think he would have brought the attention to
Speaker 5: himself or the attention to himself. Now, yeah, because because
Speaker 5: he was he was left out, left off, and he
Speaker 5: feels he was worthy of an opportunity.
Speaker 2: He gets added as quiet replacement and he doesn't play
Speaker 2: a single dribble. He gonna keep quiet like Jason Tatum
Speaker 2: and going to the next game.
Speaker 3: Yes or no.
Speaker 1: I don't know that man personally. I just just to
Speaker 1: be honest, I can't even answer for him.
Speaker 3: You do, so, you don't? You don't know that he's
Speaker 3: talking about conspiracy theories and he don't know why he's
Speaker 3: not on there, But you have to understand the situation
Speaker 3: would be a little different if you're he's complaining about
Speaker 3: not being on the team.
Speaker 5: Not being on the team and being in Paris and
Speaker 5: complaining about not getting no minutes. It's two different things.
Speaker 5: I don't think so it's too too totally completed. Well,
Speaker 5: at least the finals.
Speaker 3: MVP. You got a contract for three hundred million dollars.
Speaker 1: Hey, that's that's tough. Though, that's tough.
Speaker 3: I Oh, you don't think.
Speaker 2: You don't think hold on, you don't think it's tough
Speaker 2: being one of the best NBA players and you don't
Speaker 2: take your warm up jacket off and y'all win by
Speaker 2: twenty six.
Speaker 3: You don't think that's tough. Yeah it is.
Speaker 6: It is.
Speaker 3: Yeah it is.
Speaker 5: Hey, but you got to choose your battles, baby, That's
Speaker 5: that's game number two. Choose your battles, Choose your battles wisely.
Speaker 3: I just.
Speaker 5: He't got to think tateor got so many more Olympics
Speaker 5: to hit too.
Speaker 3: I think, man, Jay bre is only a year older,
Speaker 3: and they're gonna be in it. They're gonna be They're
Speaker 3: gonna be in LA.
Speaker 2: So they're the likelihood of Steph and Lebron and KD
Speaker 2: and I could it could I mean K KD and
Speaker 2: Steph could still be playing.
Speaker 3: I think Lebron will be gone.
Speaker 2: I don't think Lebron is gonna probably I think Lebron
Speaker 2: gonna probably play what this will be? Twenty two, probably
Speaker 2: play twenty three, twenty four, I mean play that, But
Speaker 2: I don't want to I don't want to put it
Speaker 2: out there that says, well, go ahead.
Speaker 1: With Lebron his son Bryce? When is his son Bryce
Speaker 1: in an NBA?
Speaker 3: What year Brice?
Speaker 2: What a junior in high school? Is Bryce a junior
Speaker 2: or senior in high school this year? I think Bron
Speaker 2: is like two years he's he's a junior, so that
Speaker 2: means he has a junior year, a sophomore year, a
Speaker 2: one year of college. So that's three years from now.
Speaker 5: So you don't think you don't think Ron.
Speaker 3: Nah? I think I think he got what he wanted
Speaker 3: was the play with Bronni with Bron Now.
Speaker 2: I don't know if he imagined it like this right
Speaker 2: right right with his with his with his on the
Speaker 2: same team, But to be in the NBA and my
Speaker 2: son is in the NBA.
Speaker 5: Like, think about that, like real quick chat. Think about that.
Speaker 5: I can't think of anybody in the chat. If you
Speaker 5: play NBA two K, imagine you being lebron Imagine being
Speaker 5: Bronnie and turning on your PS five, turning on your
Speaker 5: your Xbox, and you go to play NBA two K
Speaker 5: and you get to play with you and your sony
Speaker 5: y'all sitting there playing against each other or playing with it.
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's oh, that's crazy. Bryce is a senior ojo.
Speaker 2: He's a senior, so he'll be in the class of
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. So he's two years away from joining
Speaker 2: the NBA.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, okay, Oh that's crazy. That's so dope. And
Speaker 1: some people some people upset about it.
Speaker 5: Some people are upset about it.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 2: That's the whole objective is that for the first time,
Speaker 2: we're normally First of all, we're not we're not normally
Speaker 2: in a position to even create nepotism. So finally somebody
Speaker 2: that looks like us from our community is in a situation.
Speaker 2: That's why they do all the time. Yeah, Andy Reid
Speaker 2: had his sons on his staff. Yeah, Mike Shannon had
Speaker 2: had his son on his staff. I mean Bill Belichick
Speaker 2: had his son on his staff. Don't nobody say a word. Yeah, Now,
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, lebron On have it has the
Speaker 2: kind of power and the cash shape. Now it's a
Speaker 2: problem more people. I wish, Hey, I wish I had
Speaker 2: the kind of power that I could put my people
Speaker 2: in places.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Hell, I'm thinking about it. After my kids told me
Speaker 2: what they make, and I'm like, well, damn, what we
Speaker 2: got to see? They they they what they've done is
Speaker 2: that they've convinced us that if we help our kid
Speaker 2: or we help someone that looks like us, it's a
Speaker 2: bad thing.
Speaker 3: If we bought it, we bought it. Yeah mm hm,
Speaker 3: we have that's what.
Speaker 5: Okay. Yeah, and listen in the sports world, in the
Speaker 5: corporate world, they do it all the time.
Speaker 2: Always, Hey, what if the eighty eighty five percent of
Speaker 2: the jobs that get feeled never get listed?
Speaker 3: Hey, such and such? What you do a you know,
Speaker 3: my job? They died there hired? Mm hmm, there you go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're good.
Speaker 2: But they've convinced us that if we help our family,
Speaker 2: we help our kids, or a human someone a friend
Speaker 2: or relative.
Speaker 3: Oh man, you can't do that all the time.
Speaker 5: Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: And I don't like to see I don't like to
Speaker 1: see leave and I think, oh man, that's crazy.
Speaker 3: But but the thing is, do I think Jason JB
Speaker 3: should have been Yes?
Speaker 2: Once you think Kawhi because Kawhi basically played the same
Speaker 2: position as JV. I'm not arguing. I'm not we're not
Speaker 2: arguing that right, But bro, I mean if you, if
Speaker 2: you live long enough.
Speaker 3: There's gonna be some opportunities mm hm that maybe you
Speaker 3: were more qualified for for anybody else.
Speaker 1: With the somebody else. It happens, happens all the time.
Speaker 3: It's called the world.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and life, life, life.
Speaker 2: Hopefully knock on wood he stays healthy. In twenty twenty eight,
Speaker 2: the Olympics are in l A, and JB and JT
Speaker 2: might dab in the heartup. They gonna go dumb because
Speaker 2: there's a good chance that the big three that there
Speaker 2: now KD, Lebron and Steph won't be there.
Speaker 3: Because KD got to be And you're like eighteen, isn't he.
Speaker 6: N KD?
Speaker 3: And you're eighteen two thousand? Yeah, that's eighteen, guy, Lee, Yes,
Speaker 3: And I st Steph came out what in ten oh nine?
Speaker 3: So Steph is and you're sixteen.
Speaker 1: It doesn't even it doesn't it seem like it doesn't
Speaker 1: doesn't even like that.
Speaker 2: I mean, people don't realize that, Yes, KD Year eighteen,
Speaker 2: your season eighteen. That's crazy, it is, But it's tough.
Speaker 2: I think the thing is what's toughest for JB. He's
Speaker 2: like nobody. But it goes back to the Isaiah situation.
Speaker 2: You see now everybody gets to see how y'all pumping
Speaker 2: up Isaiah. How y'all was pumping up JB. But y'all
Speaker 2: was pooping on well what you call him? Didn't want
Speaker 2: him on the team. You see now, Jack Jack McCallum
Speaker 2: wrote a book that said, the first thing that reached
Speaker 2: out to to Jordan. Jordan says, who all gonna be
Speaker 2: on the team? Such a such gonna be on the team.
Speaker 2: I'll go if he doesn't because Isaiah had a Finals MVP.
Speaker 2: Isaiah was a multiple time All NBA player. He was
Speaker 2: a multiple time All Star. He was a National Champ
Speaker 2: Most Outstanding Player. He was supposed to go in eighty
Speaker 2: but they boycotted so he didn't get an opportunity to go,
Speaker 2: and he got denied. Everybody knows it doesn't matter what
Speaker 2: if you like or dislike. Everybody knows why Isaiah wasn't
Speaker 2: on that team.
Speaker 3: It was better.
Speaker 2: He was better than John Stockton, right and him and
Speaker 2: stop stop this notion. Well he didn't fit.
Speaker 3: What you mean.
Speaker 5: You heard me?
Speaker 1: Huh? Man, Jordan and Isaiah need to squash that man.
Speaker 1: Life is never gonna happen.
Speaker 5: I'm just saying. I'm just saying that they need to
Speaker 5: us and somebody need to be the bigger man. I'm
Speaker 5: not sure who it would be, but he to squashed
Speaker 5: that man.
Speaker 3: It ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 1: It ain't especially I'm.
Speaker 3: Telling you the little bit that I know about Jordan.
Speaker 3: He's a very prideful man.
Speaker 2: And it was it was Look and everybody say, well
Speaker 2: the Pistons walked off, but go back and look at
Speaker 2: eighty eight. If you go back and look when when
Speaker 2: the Pistons beat the Celtics, Hm, they left the court.
Speaker 2: Nobody said a word. But I think the thing had
Speaker 2: Bill Lambert left the court. Jordan didn't give a damn
Speaker 2: about no Bill Lambert. He said, Isaiah, you I shook
Speaker 2: your hand when you kicked my ass two three times?
Speaker 3: Give me that. But Isaiah said, we the bad boy
Speaker 3: Piston with one for one. It's one for all. HM.
Speaker 2: Look, I know Isaiah a little bit better than I
Speaker 2: know Jordan. Isaiah's always been great to me. Jordan, when
Speaker 2: I've met him, he's always been great to me. So
Speaker 2: I don't really have no dog in a fight, but
Speaker 2: I know this. Isaiah should have been on that Olympic team.
Speaker 2: No matter what you think about Isaiah, he should let
Speaker 2: it go. That's still that Ain't nothing ne can do
Speaker 2: about it now, O Joe, because he never what I feel.
Speaker 2: And that's the and he knows that's the only piece
Speaker 2: of his resume that's that's incomplete, gold medal. He's like,
Speaker 2: I'm a champion in college, I'm a champion in the NBA. Nah,
Speaker 2: I'm a finals I'm I'm Isaiah, I'm Zeke.
Speaker 3: That's what it is. But it's tough.
Speaker 2: And I think the thing is is that that you know,
Speaker 2: the Jaylen Brown situation. I think Grant was trying to
Speaker 2: make a lot of the situations like, man, it ain't
Speaker 2: nothing really going on, he says, but not like a
Speaker 2: good conspiracy theory, and and and Jalen says, well, you're
Speaker 2: not taking you're not taking me serious because you think
Speaker 2: this is kind of some kind of a joke, and
Speaker 2: it is. I mean, like, why wouldn't I be on
Speaker 2: the team given what I had accomplished?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: And how how you go politics? And every day thad
Speaker 2: it ain't just happened with Jaylen Brown.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but.
Speaker 2: If I'm him, I'm gonna sit back and like, you
Speaker 2: know what. I got an Eastern Conference, I got a
Speaker 2: lad Bird Award. I got the Bill Russell of Ward,
Speaker 2: two guys that that are beloved, that are mythical in
Speaker 2: my organization. I got three hundred million and I got
Speaker 2: a I got a I got a twelve piece on
Speaker 2: my own.
Speaker 3: I'm good. Yeah, I'm good.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you couldn't hit man, You couldn't hit me
Speaker 2: if I had all that going on. I just I
Speaker 2: won the lab Bird Award, which is Eastern Conference MVP,
Speaker 2: the Bill Russell Award, which is the Finals MVP.
Speaker 3: I got a I just the last year.
Speaker 2: I got a three hundred plus million dollar contract, which
Speaker 2: I'm living up to.
Speaker 3: And I got a lady that looked like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah you straight?
Speaker 3: Huh what hey?
Speaker 1: Trying to trying to complete the resume. It's not enough.
Speaker 2: See Oh yo, man, you know I know, Oh Joe,
Speaker 2: do you know how many times that I thought that
Speaker 2: I should have went to the Pro Bowl because I
Speaker 2: look at my numbers, and my numbers were better, my
Speaker 2: team record was better.
Speaker 3: And I didn't go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, politics, it is what it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, would it look better Shannon Sharp fourteen years or
Speaker 2: ten time?
Speaker 3: What did it call it?
Speaker 5: Pro Bowl?
Speaker 3: Ten?
Speaker 5: Pro Bowl?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Double digit? It ain't a whole lot of guys
Speaker 3: it got double digit.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's hard, Bron, that's consistency.
Speaker 3: But it is what it is.
Speaker 2: I'd say, Hey, maybe some people thought that I went
Speaker 2: early in my career, that I didn't deserve to go
Speaker 2: and pay right, right, It's hard to say that when
Speaker 2: you look at my numbers, because every year, if you
Speaker 2: were tied into AFC, you wasn't going unless being on myself,
Speaker 2: pulled out right and you were nice, Hey man, I'm
Speaker 2: the first alternate take off.
Speaker 1: That's lie.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, oh shoe. You think I wanted to fly
Speaker 2: from atlet I wanted to fly from Georgia. That's a
Speaker 2: ten hour and twelve minute flight direct from at Atlanta
Speaker 2: to Hawaii.
Speaker 3: Or if you break it up, you gotta fly.
Speaker 2: To Sandy back, then you flew to San Diego, you
Speaker 2: flew to la or you flew to San Francisco. You
Speaker 2: waited two and a half hours and then you went,
Speaker 2: so it's still it took you five hours to get there,
Speaker 2: two and a half hours, three hour wait, and then
Speaker 2: another three.
Speaker 3: Hours on there, so you're still over ten hours.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I get I don't want people to think
Speaker 2: that I don't understand what that j what JB is feeling,
Speaker 2: because you could have all that.
Speaker 5: But I still think I earned, not that I deserved.
Speaker 5: I think I earned the right.
Speaker 1: To be on this team.
Speaker 2: I feel I'm one of the twelve best players that
Speaker 2: could have been selected to be on this team.
Speaker 5: Definitely, definitely
