Speaker 1: Break was breaking down all the biggest NBA storylines. Your children,
Speaker 1: So the.
Speaker 2: Heat Check, the heat Check, it was just a crack.
Speaker 1: It's the best podcast covering all the drama around the association.
Speaker 2: Woj bomb dropped last night. Oh this is the bomb.
Speaker 2: This is the sound of the woj bomb.
Speaker 1: One of the last dominoes in cre agency fell on
Speaker 1: September eighteenth.
Speaker 2: He's been wishing, he's been hoping.
Speaker 1: He's been sending messages to random trainers around the league
Speaker 1: to contact GMS on his behalf to say why don't
Speaker 1: I have a job yet? And now the mad Chucker himself,
Speaker 1: one of the sexiest men in the league to men
Speaker 1: and women alike, has finally signed a contract and we
Speaker 1: have been waiting to hear where that would be. We
Speaker 1: all want our dose of Kelly Ichuck from thirty five
Speaker 1: feet contested or non contested ubre. So, what was the
Speaker 1: team that decided that it had to have Kelly Ubray
Speaker 1: Miami because that's a match made in heaven and they
Speaker 1: were linked to him for ages. No, the Lakers, because
Speaker 1: they're signing everyone they do not care. No, the New
Speaker 1: York Knicks because they need someone that can shoot from
Speaker 1: the outside. Versatile wing and absolute bucket Kelly in New
Speaker 1: York feels like a natural fit on the billboard of
Speaker 1: Times Square in his underwear. No, it was the Philadelphia
Speaker 1: seventy six Ers, the traditional home of swaggy players who
Speaker 1: love to shoot a lot, maybe when they shouldn't, and
Speaker 1: some players that don't love to shoot even when they
Speaker 1: should aka Ben Simmons.
Speaker 2: And we'll talk about a little bit later. That is amazing.
Speaker 1: Kelly Ubray and Nick Nurse together is amazing. Of all
Speaker 1: the teams and all the coaches in the world, I
Speaker 1: never would have dreamed that Nick Nurse I run the
Speaker 1: same five guys into the ground type of a coach said, yeah,
Speaker 1: the player that adds.
Speaker 2: An extra bit of X factor to us is Kelly Ubree.
Speaker 2: I'm not ating on Kelly Ubrie. I like Kellyubrage is fine.
Speaker 1: I don't like his decision making. He does make Jordan
Speaker 1: Poole look like Ben Simmons.
Speaker 2: He does. He is a chucker boy.
Speaker 1: And I get that they need some wing depth, and
Speaker 1: I get you need that some scoring. When James Harden,
Speaker 1: they inevitably gains seventy five pounds in the next four weeks.
Speaker 2: But this is just wow. This just don't make no sense.
Speaker 1: Ubre career thirty three percent three point shooter. He averaged
Speaker 1: twenty points a game in half a season last year
Speaker 1: on the Hornets. But we're still talking about the.
Speaker 2: Hornets, right, No, LaMelo ball.
Speaker 1: At one point, this is the guy who's never shot
Speaker 1: forty five percent from the field in any season in
Speaker 1: the NBA, and that was when he was on the
Speaker 1: Warriors and they were getting him good shots. And you
Speaker 1: add that to the fact that the older he gets,
Speaker 1: the more he shoots. He went from averaging one point
Speaker 1: three threes per game in his rookie year that's fine,
Speaker 1: to now seven over seven threes a game, despite being
Speaker 1: one of the worst high volume shooters three point shooters
Speaker 1: in the league.
Speaker 2: And he just continues to increase his volume. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: why not just do it more.
Speaker 1: I know I wasn't great with four threes a game,
Speaker 1: but I think I'll be better shooting seven.
Speaker 2: That's supreme confidence right there in yourself.
Speaker 1: At one point, the guy averaged seventeen shots a game
Speaker 1: and less.
Speaker 2: Than one assist.
Speaker 1: Kelly, So Kelly was asking this summer like why he
Speaker 1: hadn't y gotten picked up on a team yet?
Speaker 2: Like that? In a sentence.
Speaker 1: Right there is why you didn't need to call a
Speaker 1: damn person. All you need to know is at one
Speaker 1: point you averaged seventeen shots.
Speaker 2: Per game and one assist less than one assist.
Speaker 1: He's never played really on a good team outside of
Speaker 1: the Warriors wor The Wizards won forty.
Speaker 2: Nine games when he was twenty one. The Warriors were.
Speaker 1: Thirty nine and thirty three in that twenty twenty season
Speaker 1: when he cost him like eighty five million dollars in
Speaker 1: luxury tax.
Speaker 2: This is a contending team.
Speaker 1: The Warriors were very split about what they wanted to
Speaker 1: do in terms of picking him up. I think Steve
Speaker 1: Kerr reluctantly vouched for him and that went that went
Speaker 1: sideways fast. Him and Eric Paschaw were out there just chucking.
Speaker 1: So now we get to see how he met with
Speaker 1: Nick Nurse, who has who would never allow for this.
Speaker 1: Let's be honest, this is not a Nick Nurse decision.
Speaker 1: He said no, and they said overruled. No idea how
Speaker 1: he's going to react when he gets a rebound, steals
Speaker 1: a rebound from Joel Embiid and pushes the ball up
Speaker 1: the floor and takes the contested thirty five foot or
Speaker 1: five seconds into the shot clock after Nick Nurse has
Speaker 1: called for Maxi to run a.
Speaker 2: Pick and roll play. There would not be enough wind
Speaker 2: sprints in the world for.
Speaker 1: Nick to make room for him next practice. It is
Speaker 1: just incredible. I think part of me believes this is
Speaker 1: some sort of punishment to James Harden. I don't know how,
Speaker 1: but it feels like it is. And Kelly Whubray on
Speaker 1: the Sixers with Joel Embiid is.
Speaker 2: Gonna be fun. It's a pretty fair deal for one year.
Speaker 1: Considering that it's a vet minimum. Kelly's gonna have a
Speaker 1: ton of incentive to buildings tation up so that you
Speaker 1: can get paid somewhere else next year. But boy, oh boy,
Speaker 1: can I not wait to see how this goes and
Speaker 1: to see the look on Joel Embiid's face and Nick
Speaker 1: Nurse's face NRS face the first
Speaker 2: Time he pulls and Nick Young aka a Kelly Ubrin
