1
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: Hey, bro, I got this new invention. But shit, let's

2
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: hear it's called a clock. Okay, it's gonna reflect how

3
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:11,239
Speaker 1: we keep track of the time of day. I'm gonna

4
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 1: put twelve numbers on it, so the day's gonna be

5
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: cutting the twelve part now twenty four okay, So the

6
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 1: day starts at one. Nah, nah, it's gonna start at twelve,

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: which is at night. The day's gonna start at night. Yeah,

8
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 1: the six means thirty okay, but what but for real?

9
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: For real?

10
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: And then I'm gona you see how I put two

11
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 1: hands only This is where I get interested. Little hand

12
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,840
Speaker 1: keeps track of the bigger increment of time. Other hand

13
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: keep track of the lesser.

14
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:43,840
Speaker 3: Increment of time. What about that hen right there?

15
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:44,639
Speaker 4: All over right there?

16
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's called the second hand.

17
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:50,879

00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 5: But I said it there. We had another wedgie last night.

58
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 3: Guys.

59
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 5: Maybe we'll get the fiftieth weggie while we're doing Happy Hour,

60
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 5: oh man, and then the donations will just pour in.

61
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 4: We'll hit a million there.

62
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 5: But yeah, we had a wedgie number forty nine. If

63
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 5: you're keeping track, which.

64
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 3: We are, NAS read nice can you a little scoop

65
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 3: and a stick? They're calling it on Twitter.

66
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 5: Skip the nice one there from NAS and uh it

67
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:23,679
Speaker 5: gets us to forty nine.

68
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness.

69
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 5: In the shortened season, we might hit fifty before the

70
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 5: end of the regular season, Yes, we count playoff wedgies, but.

71
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 3: This is awesome, and uh, I don't know.

72
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 5: I think it's looking good Lely that we hit number

73
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 5: fifty here before we even get to the play in

74
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 5: tournament and then the playoffs.

75
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 3: I got. I mean, I think we might go over

76
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 3: fifty at this point.

77
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 4: I think you're right too. I think we're definitely going

78
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 4: to do it. But what happens if that fiftieth comes

79
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 4: in the plane? Is that a regular season or is

80
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 4: that a playoff?

81
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 3: Which it doesn't matter really do they count? Do they

82
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 3: even can't? We know those stats don't count, so where

83
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 3: do they go?

84
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, I think we're doing it. I think we're

85
00:03:58,880 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 4: doing it by this weekend.

86
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 3: I just feel it.

87
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 4: So many games and we've just had such a great

88
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 4: season of wedgies. It's happening trying to get it.

89
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 5: I am like almost convinced more now than ever that

90
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 5: we are going to get the fiftieth Weggie during happy hour.

91
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 5: I think it's gonna happen like Trey, Like we'll be

92
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 5: live for a couple hours. There's games on Thursday nights,

93
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 5: of course, so uh you watch, it's gonna stick to fifty.

94
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 5: The stream team's gonna go bonkers. I'll make sure we

95
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 5: grabbed the clip while we're live on the air. We'll

96
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 5: play it. We'll pop some champagne. I actually found I

97
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 5: forget if you guys got one too. I have a

98
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 5: Wedgie flask. Yeah, where did that come from? Was that

99
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 5: from NBATV themselves? They give it to us?

100
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 4: I do think so.

101
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 5: Anyway, Yeah, so I'm gonna be h, you know, drinking

102
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 5: some of the brown stuff from that. When we hit

103
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 5: a fifty there on a Happy Hour, I was like,

104
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 5: oh my god, I have a weggie flask. Like it's

105
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 5: engraved number fifty Weggie on it or something like that.

106
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 2: So crazy for this one. It's certainly possible. Got a

107
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 2: sort of light schedule tonight, only six games, but I

108
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 2: mean the Wedgies have been sticking fast and furious lately,

109
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 2: and Marcus Smart will be playing tonight Boston at Cleveland.

110
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 2: It's possible he sticks the fiftieth Wedgie again, or we

111
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 2: might be waiting till Thursday watching it on Happy Hour.

112
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 2: Either way, if it comes tonight on a Wedgie Wednesday

113
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 2: with mister fifty himself, Marcus Smart, that would be huge.

114
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 2: Or I mean, obviously during a happy Hour be major,

115
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 2: major stuff.

116
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:25,919
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, and we were talking about it on the

117
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 5: Top Shot Hot Boys last night. Trey and I were

118
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 5: the Charlotte Hornets are doing like the first ever NBA

119
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 5: like NFT commemorative ticket on Thursday night. So maybe it'll

120
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 5: be the Hornets game tray, Like it'll happen.

121
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 3: There, and we got to track one down first.

122
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 5: Then we got to get an NFT from the Hornets somehow.

123
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 5: But it will happen on happening, Man, I can't wait.

124
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 5: We are talking this into existence.

125
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 3: I love it.

126
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 5: Okay, let's get to the actual game. So from last

127
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 5: night tons on, But what the hell? Eleven games on

128
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,039
Speaker 5: a Tuesday night. That's why chunky, very chunky, and it

129
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 5: feels like, I don't know, every single game almost matters

130
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 5: to some extent, and we're not going to go through

131
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 5: all of them here. But we start with the Lakers

132
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 5: fighting off the Knicks in overtime defensive battle. What we

133
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 5: have like two hundred points in an overtime game combined

134
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 5: incredible stuff, but Trey Lakers pull it out in the end.

135
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

136
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if this was the game of the year,

137
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 2: but this was definitely the game of the year. For

138
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 2: all the Illinois boys out there, because this game was

139
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 2: a banger despite being pretty ugly, highlighted by big performances

140
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 2: from Chicago's own Derrick Rose, Anthony Davis, and most importantly

141
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 2: Taylan Horton Tucker Skeets. If this were a Netflix show,

142
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 2: it would be ugly delicious, because this was ugly. No Lebron,

143
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 2: no Dennis Shruder eventually, no Alex Caruso for the Lakers,

144
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 2: that's their three main ball handlers. No Emmanuel Quickly, no

145
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 2: Alec Burks for the Knicks. The Lakers shot forty one

146
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 2: percent from the field and one because the Knick shot

147
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,279
Speaker 2: thirty nine percent. Like you're saying two hundred points combined,

148
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 2: the Knicks didn't even get to one hundred in overtime game.

149
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 2: That's wild stuff in twenty twenty one, But these teams

150
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 2: were scrapping. Lakers just made a few more plays down

151
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:12,239
Speaker 2: the stretch in regulation and in overtime end regulation, Wesley

152
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 2: Matthews with the big tip to tie things up off

153
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 2: a miss three from KCP. As Tom Thibodeau said postgame,

154
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 2: it was really the rebounding that beat the Knicks. That's

155
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 2: one hundred percent true. The Lakers grabbed fourteen offensive rebounds

156
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 2: last night. A lot of mishots, a lot of rebounds

157
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 2: to be had, but the Lakers certainly outworked New York

158
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 2: on the glass.

159
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 3: Four the entirety of the evening.

160
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 2: In overtime, it was thht On tnt Oh forced into

161
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 2: play a point guard Taylor Horton. Tucker scores eight of

162
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 2: his thirteen in overtime.

163
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 3: Also had a couple of brutal.

164
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 2: Turnovers twice in the last two minutes, including getting straight

165
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 2: up ripped by Derreck Rose with the bottom minute left.

166
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 2: But thht's got guts. Just under thirty seconds left in overtime,

167
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 2: Lakers run a pick and roll with him and Anthony Davis.

168
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 2: Thht pulls up from the left wing over his childhood

169
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 2: hero Dereck Rills. Splash, all the Illinois boys go wild.

170
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 3: RJ.

171
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 2: Barrett takes an insane shot on the other end for

172
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 2: the next Lakers win.

173
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: Lakers win.

174
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 2: Lee once upon a time said this was a game

175
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 2: about a game, This was a game. This thing was ugly,

176
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 2: but it was super fun to watch, a throwback to

177
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 2: the nineties kind of game. Right there, looking like Elden

178
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 2: Campbell and who was on the Knicks. I don't want

179
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: to go Patrick Ewing, He's too good, right too get

180
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 2: compared to Elden Campbell.

181
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 3: I want those that, yeah that like that next level down.

182
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, you.

183
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 2: Know, Elden Campbell and Marcus Camby didn't really cross over

184
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 2: with each other during this, but you know what I'm saying,

185
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 2: it felt like a nineties game, not a twenty twenty

186
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 2: one game.

187
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 3: Fun times though.

188
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, and crazy lee when you're like trying to track

189
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 5: the standings and the playoff races to see a team

190
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,079
Speaker 5: drop two spots in one night after one game, and

191
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 5: that's what the Knicks did. They were fourth heading into

192
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 5: the night last night in the Eastern Conference and are

193
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 5: now sitting sixth because the Hawks go up to fourth

194
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 5: and the Heat, who will get to beat the Celtics

195
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 5: to jump up to fifth. That is just sort of insane.

196
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 5: Now they're not dropping any further, but this is big.

197
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 5: As we've talked about, You're gonna want to be the

198
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 5: four or five seed in the East to have a

199
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 5: really good chance to advance to the second round. For

200
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 5: a lot of these teams, that would be huge, especially

201
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 5: the Knicks or the Hawks, you know, maybe less so

202
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 5: for the Heat. Who just went to the finals. But

203
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 5: here they are now sitting in sixth and would have

204
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 5: a very very tough first round against possibly the Bucks.

205
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 5: I guess it could still even be the Nets. It's

206
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 5: nuts trying to wrap your head around this.

207
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's the thing their best hope is, of course,

208
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 4: as you mentioned, I think against the Hawks. I think

209
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 4: even the Heat would be a tough matchup for the

210
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 4: Knicks in that first round just because of their experience

211
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 4: and they've been there before. So then, and the Knicks

212
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 4: had this game too late, you know, Julius Randa again

213
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 4: had he didn't have a great shooting night, but he

214
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 4: hit a big shot late, that three pointer. I just

215
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 4: couldn't quite finish off the job. I mean, Derek Rowse

216
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 4: again is just incredible off the bench for them, like

217
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 4: because they didn't really have anyone else, you know, scoring

218
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,079
Speaker 4: for them last night. Again, in when you've got a

219
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 4: bit of an arm wrestle like this, you need someone

220
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 4: who can get a bucket, and Rose had that mid

221
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 4: range you're going too. So yeah, the Knicks has still

222
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 4: got enough time just to get out of jail here.

223
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 4: But that was a which is one of those costly

224
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 4: losses because facing the Bucks in the first round is

225
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,679
Speaker 4: such a different prospect than facing the Atlanta Hawks. So

226
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 4: we'll see how they rebound from this. But it's been

227
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 4: a good road trip overall for the Knicks, you know,

228
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 4: you know, they got the win there against the Clippers

229
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 4: on Sunday. What day is it today, Yeah, it's Wednesday.

230
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 4: On the road, that's right. They went thraight and through.

231
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 4: It feels like they've been on the road actually for

232
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 4: a long time, because I know they've played the Jazz

233
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 4: and the Nuggets and the Suns out there as well,

234
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 4: so it's been a tough, tough stretch. But coming back

235
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 4: three and three, I think they'd take that. I think overall,

236
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 4: you know, that's that's a pretty good return for them.

237
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 4: So they come home now and they've just got to

238
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 4: take care of business if they can in their last

239
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 4: couple of games here. Just looking at the schedule, they've

240
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 4: got the Spurs next. Obviously that's back in New York,

241
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 4: so that's that could go either the way. Then they've

242
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 4: got the Hornets and the Celtics to close out, so

243
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 4: they're all at home and it could just depend on

244
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 4: who's sort of playing for those things. But if they

245
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 4: can pick up two wins out of those three. That

246
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 4: might be enough just to get them back to that

247
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 4: fifth place, fifth place in the Eastern Conference.

248
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 5: We haven't even had a play in game yet this season,

249
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 5: and this thing is the biggest success of all the time.

250
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 5: I mean, it is unbelievable. We have been doing this

251
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 5: for a long time a daily NBA podcast. This is

252
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,199
Speaker 5: by far the greatest couple of weeks to end the

253
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 5: season that we've ever had.

254
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 3: It's not even close.

255
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 5: These are usually the worst, most boring shows as you

256
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 5: get down the stretch and for the most part, teams

257
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 5: are locked in and then they're just resting a bunch

258
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 5: of guys, and you know, you're sort of keeping your

259
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 5: eye on the you know, tankathon dot com and like,

260
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 5: but you're like struggling to come up with content. And

261
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 5: instead we have like these games that are late at

262
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 5: night on a Tuesday night when you've had already ten

263
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 5: games on and this one's like feels like must watch

264
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 5: and it's like got a playoff intensity, just like the

265
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 5: Warrior Sun's games.

266
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 3: Like the hell, this is amazing.

267
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 5: This is like absolutely perfect to keep at least some

268
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 5: more people interested in these games, and and and even

269
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 5: just you know, the media cycle to be talking about

270
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 5: all of this. Like Tom Ziller's newsletter this morning. I

271
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 5: don't know if you guys had a chance to read

272
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 5: it yet. He basically breaks down the two races, one

273
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 5: in the East, one in the West. The one in

274
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 5: the West is the five to six to seven race, okay,

275
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 5: and he breaks it down in unbelievable detail and tiebreakers

276
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 5: and what happens is the day two win and they lose.

277
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 3: And then in the what in the east? Excuse me?

278
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 5: You got the four or five six as we just

279
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 5: talked about with the Hawks, now the heat and then

280
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 5: the Knicks, And it's like just those two races alone,

281
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 5: and on top of that, there are a million other

282
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 5: races in terms of seas So this is uh yeah,

283
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 5: thumbs up, way to go out of silver.

284
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,319
Speaker 3: Sorry, this is absolutely perfect and I love this. Yeah,

285
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 3: we had no complaints. All right, Well, that's that's really cool.

286
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:58,839
Speaker 2: I guess I didn't anticipate the multiple races factor of it.

287
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 2: Like to me, it's like, okay, we're going to be

288
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 2: having a race here at the end of the season

289
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 2: to see who gets the tenth seed. People just wanting

290
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 2: to be in the play in tournament. That's kind of

291
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:07,959
Speaker 2: the case. You know, the bowls are still in the

292
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 2: periphery there. It seems to be settling into our play

293
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 2: in teams here, but now we suddenly have races for

294
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 2: four or five, six as well. Like you're saying seven

295
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 2: and eight, you want to be in that spot too.

296
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 2: There's even a mini race in the play in tournament,

297
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 2: just throwing this random little wrench in here as making

298
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 2: things exciting. We're going down to the last week the season.

299
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 2: Other than I guess it must have been twenty sixteen

300
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 2: right where we had the Wolves versus the Nuggets that

301
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 2: one play in, one game play in to have things

302
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 2: this unsettled, coming down to it and having these games

303
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 2: actually matter.

304
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 3: At the end of the season crazy stuff.

305
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 5: That week off for teams that are one through six

306
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 5: is huge because next week it's basically all the play

307
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 5: in tournament games that are going on, so you get

308
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 5: a lot of rest and in a season here that's

309
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 5: obviously shortened, yes to seventy two games, but action packed

310
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 5: because of obviously games that were postponed like this second

311
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 5: half schedule has been seen. That's why we're having eleven

312
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 5: games on a Tuesday night. Everybody the poor Spurs have

313
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 5: something like four and five games here, sorry, four games

314
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 5: and five nights coming up if you're counting the plane.

315
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 3: If they're eventually anyway, you want that week off.

316
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 5: So you're right, Trey, it's like really encouraging these teams,

317
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 5: Like forget about the part of like, oh, you know,

318
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 5: you never know what happens in a one or two

319
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 5: game situation where you could lose. It's just like Jesus,

320
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 5: let's get a week of rest here at this point,

321
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 5: recharge the boundaries as we head into these playoffs here.

322
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 5: So it's fantastic, all right. Well, let's get to the

323
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 5: Sun's Warriors game. Warriors rally past the Suns behind Andrew Wiggins. Baby,

324
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 5: oh my god, thirty eight points for Wiggy. I hope

325
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 5: you kept your nice condo there on Wiggins Island, Lee,

326
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 5: because real estate prices are.

327
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 3: Booming right now. Wiggs is on fire over the last

328
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 3: little stretch.

329
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 5: He's playing really solid on both ends actually, So yeah,

330
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 5: it was your big takeaway besides Wiggins Island real estate

331
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 5: going to the moon.

332
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 4: Well, if you would have sort of picked things out

333
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,040
Speaker 4: of the buck score of this game, you would, I

334
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 4: think the Suns win it pretty easily because Booker had

335
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 4: a big nine thirty four points, Chris Paul twenty four

336
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 4: and ten, and then Jay crowded with twenty, so they

337
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 4: got lots of scoring, lots of contributions. And then you

338
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 4: look at Steph Curry won for eleven from Downtown seven

339
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 4: for twenty two overall twenty one points. But the Warriors

340
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 4: won because Andrew Wiggins in that fourth quarter had thirteen

341
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 4: big points, including a big three, a big drive there

342
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 4: as well where Draymond was super hyped up there and

343
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 4: now sort of gave him the big chest bump, and

344
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 4: the Warriors pulled this one out. And so this is

345
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 4: actually I'm going to say this has been a good

346
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 4: couple of losses here for the Phoenix Suns because they

347
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 4: lost to the Lakers without Lebron. The Lakers were desperate

348
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 4: for a win and they got it. And now the

349
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 4: Warriors also, you know, they're not desperate for a win,

350
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 4: but they needed that win and they're playing like a

351
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 4: playoff team. And this is what the Sons are going

352
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 4: to have to get used to, because this is what

353
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 4: it's going to be like for them in the playoffs.

354
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 3: Teams losing the playing teams. I hope they don't get

355
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 3: used to that.

356
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 4: But these teams are experienced teams. These teams are teams

357
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 4: that like are playing for something, and so the Sons

358
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 4: didn't just get like a free part.

359
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 3: So getting some ups in here taking.

360
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 4: It and you know, close games at the end, and

361
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 4: the Sons need to know how to pull those ones

362
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 4: out because Chris Paul was again great in that little

363
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 4: mid range, but they didn't get the w here for them.

364
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 4: So I think overall that this is something the Sons

365
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 4: can certainly learn from and expect to see so much

366
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 4: more of in the next couple of weeks because they're

367
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 4: a good team at home, but it's going to be

368
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 4: so much different if they go on the road because

369
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 4: they could face one of these two teams in the

370
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 4: first round, and so they just know it's going to

371
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 4: be it's going to be tough for them. But Wiggans great.

372
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 4: I mean, he stepped up Steph Curry. Really they did

373
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 4: a great job defending him last night. He hit that

374
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 4: the only three hit was a pretty wild one as well,

375
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 4: like office screen. He was deep there. And this is

376
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 4: after he had that huge game against the Thunder the

377
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 4: other night where he had eleven three Since then, he's

378
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 4: like four for twenty four from downtown. So whoever they

379
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 4: faced next to, someone's gonna someone's going to see Steph

380
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 4: Curry ten for twelve game from three coming up here.

381
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 3: Pretty so.

382
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 4: But yeah, another good fun game, really entertaining stuff there

383
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 4: last night. The Suns won't I don't think can't drop

384
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 4: from second. I think they can still technically grab first.

385
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 4: They probably won't, but the Warriors did lock up their

386
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 4: they're playing card if you like, they're in that tournament.

387
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 4: It's now just a matter of where they finish. And

388
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 4: that Lakers. That Lakers' next game was so huge because

389
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 4: you know that the Blazers and the Mavericks were pulling

390
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 4: for the Knicks, and so were the Warriors because where

391
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 4: it stands right now, the Lakers do have home court

392
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 4: against the Warriors, but of course the Warriors can still

393
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 4: afford to lose that game and still advance.

394
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 5: So so Grizzly, he's kicked the snart out of the map.

395
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 3: Ye are right behind the Warriors training They're.

396
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 4: Only half a game half game back there, so it

397
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 4: is so close here. But yeah, great stuff. And Andrew Wiggins,

398
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 4: he's a he's a reluctant hero out there, I think

399
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 4: because he sort of doesn't quite know how to react

400
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 4: when he has a great performance and moment, he's kind

401
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 4: of like, shit, I did the right thing this time, guys,

402
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,199
Speaker 4: you know, and well done to him.

403
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 3: Good stuff.

404
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know Tass had some great numbers on what

405
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 5: you need to know. I think Dave afforded too going

406
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,439
Speaker 5: over Wiggins, like last week, I think it was like

407
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 5: twenty nine games, like twenty nine or thirty games where

408
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 5: he's like really really shooting the ball well again, contributing defensively,

409
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,439
Speaker 5: He's over twenty points per game. He's looking like, you know,

410
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 5: what you sort of expect from a Wiggins at least

411
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 5: when you look at the guy's body type, you're like, yeah,

412
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 5: you should be able to bring it on both ends

413
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 5: in this in today's league, you definitely should be a

414
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 5: twenty point per game scorer, which you've obviously proven to

415
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 5: be before on a bad Wolves team. And yeah, he's

416
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 5: coming through here. You know, everybody's interested in a subway

417
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 5: franchise on Wiggans.

418
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 3: Island right now. This is great for me.

419
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 5: You know, everybody's talking about Doge, but what about Wiggins

420
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 5: Island and the subway franchises.

421
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 3: I mean it's awesome Trey any think that.

422
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, He's been great, there's no doubt about it. As

423
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 2: have the Warriors. Basically since James Wiseman went down. You know,

424
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,719
Speaker 2: their rotation has been really short, and I think that

425
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 2: has helped a guy like Wiggins who knows I'm playing regardless,

426
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 2: like they need me to score, they need me to

427
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 2: shoot the ball. That gives you the confidence that maybe

428
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 2: Wiggins has lacked in the past. But this little run

429
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 2: that the Warriors have gone on has been pretty impressive,

430
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 2: impressive and impressive. I think Draymond has honestly been really

431
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 2: really good lately for the Warriors. He's all over the

432
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 2: court defensively as usual, He's the backbone of their defense.

433
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 2: There's still a top five defense with Wiggins contributing as well.

434
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 2: The shots coming around a little bit. He's obviously passing

435
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 2: the ball pretty nicely. Draymond, he just seems to know

436
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 2: how to time his body. I feel like he did

437
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 2: something very similar. It must have been at must have

438
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 2: been the twenty nineteen season, remember where like he was

439
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 2: struggling through that entire season and then suddenly he lost

440
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 2: like nineteen pounds in ten days or something like that,

441
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 2: and suddenly was posting triple doubles left and right, very similar.

442
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 2: I think what's been happening with Draymond. He just seems

443
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 2: to be peaking right now heading into the playoffs, and

444
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 2: it's working out less options for the Warriors, saying Steph,

445
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 2: you're gonna have to do a whole bunch. We'll take

446
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 2: whatever we can get from anybody else that's unleashed, guys

447
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 2: like Wiggins and Jordan Poole who've been pretty solid. But

448
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:54,119
Speaker 2: I think the big winner last night therapy bunny Alex.

449
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, do you see this?

450
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, a straight up rabbit who's apparently associated with this

451
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 2: San Francisco Giants, made its way to the game last night.

452
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 2: Golden State hosted Alex as a lucky rabbit's foot for

453
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 2: its playoff push. Obviously it worked, but the team doesn't

454
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 2: typically allow bunnies in the arena. Yeah, I don't know

455
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 2: if that's like on the back of your ticket stuff.

456
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 2: It's like, you know, it's got all the regulations on there.

457
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 2: At the very bottom it says no bunnies parentheses unless

458
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 2: during playoff push. But Alex came through in the clutch

459
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 2: last night, like Buster Posey hitting a walk off Homer.

460
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 3: It's like a it's a big ass bunny to your rabbit.

461
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,440
Speaker 3: That's a big party. I thought it was going to

462
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 3: be in.

463
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 5: My head, it's gonna be a cute, little, tiny rabbit

464
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:39,199
Speaker 5: or it's huge.

465
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 3: It's like the side easily. Yeah. Yeah, it's like holding

466
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 3: it up like a giant groundhog. Stuff like that. What

467
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,360
Speaker 3: didn't look comfortable, I'll be honest too.

468
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 5: The clip I saw like trying to stay on the

469
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 5: guy's lap as he's holding on for dear life to

470
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,120
Speaker 5: not let the bunny run away.

471
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 2: But yeah, I would think it would be hard to

472
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 2: control a rabbit for three hours of a basketball game.

473
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would think so. You don't have a lot

474
00:20:59,200 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 3: of experience.

475
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 5: What does the rabbit think about the idea of it

476
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 5: being the lucky charm because of the rabbit's foot You

477
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 5: know what usually the rabbit's foot is.

478
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 3: It's off the damn rabbit. Like does the rabbit know this? Uh?

479
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 5: Like, are they going to sacrifice this poor guy to

480
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 5: keep the streak alive?

481
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 3: They keep the luck going? I hope not. Otherwise it's

482
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 3: just there.

483
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 2: Things definitely get a little scarier if they start losing

484
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 2: some games. They're like, well, yeah, maybe we don't need

485
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 2: the whole rabbit exactly.

486
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:28,880
Speaker 5: I mean it won't sit still, but we just need

487
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,360
Speaker 5: the foot.

488
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,159
Speaker 3: We've got the regulations here, the right on the ticket. Okay.

489
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 5: Fred says a friend's back. He was in the stream

490
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 5: team last night for our top Shot hop boys. He

491
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 5: was very confused what was going on, but he said,

492
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 5: rabbits are cute, but they act like dickheads.

493
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah in that group mentality. Yeah, they got crazy.

494
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 4: Yeah I used to. I used to shoot them. I

495
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 4: used to call them for friendom Mine on his farm

496
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 4: there everywhere, and yeah, they just caused so much destruction.

497
00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean, tough tough job there.

498
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 5: Like why is it when they get together, they're they're

499
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:04,679
Speaker 5: worse because.

500
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 4: They cause construction yea, yeah, just they're devastating for farmers.

501
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 4: So you have to take him out. Unfortunes. Were you

502
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 4: a good short Lily, I mean I probably went probably

503
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 4: fifty to fifty five percent from the field. I would say,

504
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 4: you know, because you shine the light and they stop

505
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 4: and they look, and yeah, you know I missed a

506
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 4: couple of outlanded a.

507
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 3: Few with a weapon in your hand.

508
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 4: Oh it's it's just like a pellet gun sort of thing.

509
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,719
Speaker 4: It's like, yeah, I mean it can kill them. But

510
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 4: the old farmer, like if you're injured one and you

511
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 4: don't care, he just gets up and twisted its neck.

512
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 4: But then they feed them to the dog, so it's

513
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 4: not like they're just leave them there.

514
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 5: Oh holy crap, I like to bring up this rolly.

515
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 3: I need a therapy buddy, now, Old Alex please. Wow,

516
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 3: things got dark here on a Wednesday morning. Okay, let's

517
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 3: keep it going.

518
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 5: The Heat clinched a playoff spot with the one victory

519
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 5: over the Celtics, so you know, we slipped it in there.

520
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 5: But Miami moves into a tie with the Hawks for

521
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 5: fifth place in the Eastern Conference. Atlanta has the tiebreaker there.

522
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,360
Speaker 5: So their fourth Heat, fifth Heat's tenth win in thirteen games,

523
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 5: just three games to go for them in the regular season. Uh,

524
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 5: they are starting to click. I remember we were talking

525
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 5: a while ago. We thought, hmm, when the Celtics like

526
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 5: had a nice run, we were like, oh, wow, this

527
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 5: would be interesting if Boston becomes like the fourth, like

528
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 5: really really good team in the Eastern Conference to go

529
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 5: with obviously Philly, Brooklyn and Milwaukee. And we thought that

530
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 5: might happen. Of course, well, the opposite happened. They just

531
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 5: started faltering.

532
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 3: But it's the Heat.

533
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 5: I think we just had the wrong team because this

534
00:23:56,359 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 5: is like, I mean, would you guys agree that of

535
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 5: the top three in the East, and then you go

536
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 5: to the second tier, is Miami at the top of

537
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 5: that second tier because of what they did last year,

538
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 5: what we know they're capable of doing. Was obviously the

539
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 5: talent on their team when they're all healthy, with their

540
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 5: new additions helping in, like Areza and Denmone and stuff

541
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 5: like that. Is that fair lee that the Heat would

542
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 5: be either in that group with those three best teams

543
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 5: or rate below them.

544
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, for sure. I Mean I talked about before.

545
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 4: Jimmy Butler knows that it doesn't really matter where he

546
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 4: is in the standards. I mean, obviously they would prefer

547
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 4: home court advantage, but he knows that he's beaten the

548
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 4: Bucks last season, and he's beaten the Philadelphia seventy six

549
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 4: or you know, he's got some beef I guess there

550
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 4: in the past there with the seventy sixers, So you know,

551
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 4: I think he knows that if they're a full strength

552
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 4: like any team, and they're playing their best and they're

553
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 4: getting contributions like drag its off the bench last night.

554
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,400
Speaker 4: They're a tough team to beat and to just eliminate

555
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 4: because the Heat, I believe, have a great way of

556
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 4: just controlling the tempo and the pace. You know, they

557
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 4: like to just slow it down and play their style.

558
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 4: So if they can get a team out of their rhythm,

559
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 4: that plays into Miami's hand. So certainly, you know, if

560
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 4: you're the Nets or the Sixers or the Bucks, you

561
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 4: want the Hawks or the Knicks in that second round.

562
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 4: You don't want to just see Miami because you should

563
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 4: be able to beat them.

564
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 3: I mean you should.

565
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 4: You've had a better season, You've got better players, But

566
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 4: it's just different in the playoffs. And you know, there's

567
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 4: no fresher memory than what we saw from the Heat

568
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 4: down and the bubble there last season. You know, they

569
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 4: okay the Paces, that wasn't a huge upset, but to

570
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 4: do it against the Celtics and the Bucks as easily

571
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 4: as they did in the end just showed what they

572
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 4: are capable of. And Jimmy Butler loves that environment. He

573
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,919
Speaker 4: loves that situation. So yeah, the Heat the Heater are

574
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 4: definitely a sleep there in the Eastern Conference. But you

575
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 4: know the other teams, you know, should feel they can

576
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 4: beat them, but it should be a great series too,

577
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 4: whoever they face. And yeah, if you're the Hawks, as

578
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 4: we said earlier, Hawks or the Knicks won each other

579
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,160
Speaker 4: the heat.

580
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 5: I would agree with that, Becau, especially with everybody contributing

581
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 5: to Miami. Jimmy left this game, you know, getting a

582
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 5: shot to the eye there. But Tyler Hero, oh is

583
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:55,360
Speaker 5: it bubble hero time?

584
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 4: Like?

585
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 3: Is that what's going on here?

586
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,040
Speaker 5: Twenty four points on fifteen shots off the bench and

587
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 5: rebounds as well. Drag its you said there, leave the

588
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 5: dragon unleashed. I think he hit three straight threes at

589
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 5: the start of the fourth quarter. Really like put the

590
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 5: game away, Duncan Robinson. He had a nice little run,

591
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 5: scored eight of his thirteen third quarter points during a

592
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 5: big heat run. You know, I got into it a

593
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,199
Speaker 5: little bit, was smart there and then bam, I mean

594
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 5: a twenty two seven and five. An incredible postgame interview too, Trey.

595
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 5: I don't know if you saw him talking to d

596
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,199
Speaker 5: Wade and the guy's back in the studio, he is.

597
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 3: He just shocks me how charismatic he is.

598
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 5: I don't know why I have it in my head

599
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 5: like he's just a stone cold killer, like the way

600
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 5: he sort of plays on the floor and then it

601
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 5: would be like that often, but he's like really personabal

602
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 5: and like he was making fun of Wade for not

603
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 5: texting him back within twenty four hours because he's like

604
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 5: a superstar start and stuff like that.

605
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 3: It was great. So yeah, the Heat.

606
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 5: You know, look, I've been convinced over this last couple

607
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 5: of weeks here where they do look like they look

608
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 5: like the heat from last year. You can't deny that

609
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 5: when all these guys are contributing.

610
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely, and like you're saying, yeah, bam, nice little

611
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 2: personality there, because if I'm doing completely on, I don't

612
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 2: love his video bombs with Jimmy Butler, I think he'd

613
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 2: be doing a little bit more back. They're going a

614
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 2: little bit more wacky, but when he's the star of

615
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 2: the interview, came through in the clutch and that's exactly

616
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 2: what the Heater are doing. Ten of their last thirteen wins,

617
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,640
Speaker 2: hero turning it on to get a win like that

618
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 2: last night with Jimmy Butler only playing a handful of

619
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 2: minutes for taking a poke to the eye. That's impressive stuff.

620
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,879
Speaker 2: You know, The Heat are aside from Jimmy Butler's eye,

621
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,679
Speaker 2: basically the healthiest they've been this season. Not a surprise then,

622
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 2: that they're able to put that chemistry together and build

623
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 2: on something. They've got a top ten defense suddenly a

624
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 2: bottom ten offense, but they've still got the guys that

625
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 2: can do it. We'll see how things play out with

626
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 2: regards to seeding and stuff, but I would not be

627
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: surprised if they end up playing Philadelphia in the second round.

628
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,679
Speaker 2: You will see a lot of people taking the Heat because, yeah, Bam,

629
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 2: he'll at least be able to stick with Embiid a

630
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 2: little bit, take some bumps inside us his quickness, use

631
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 2: his defensive ability to make it tough for Embeid Whereas

632
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 2: you'll probably take Jimmy Butler over Ben Simmons in playoff game.

633
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:02,880
Speaker 2: I think that's a pretty easy choice. And then from

634
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 2: there it's like who's going to show up from the

635
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,879
Speaker 2: role players we saw the Heat do it last season.

636
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 2: Will that happen for the Sixers this season as a

637
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 2: number one seed, perhaps, but I think you'll see a

638
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 2: lot of people looking for an upset of those two

639
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 2: teams meet in the playoffs.

640
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 5: I think you're absolutely right all right, let's fly through

641
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 5: the other games here. I'll chuck them all at you

642
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 5: and Trey and go wherever you want. And Lee you

643
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 5: can do the same. We had Durant scoring twenty one

644
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 5: as the Nets beat the Bulls one fifteen to.

645
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 3: One oh seven. Oh not good for Chicago's chances they're

646
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 3: getting in.

647
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 5: John Morant Dylan Brooks helped Memphis to the one thirty

648
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,200
Speaker 5: three to one oh four domination over the Dallas Mavericks.

649
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 5: The Pacers kept the Sixers from clinching the number one

650
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 5: seed in the East at least for another day. No

651
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 5: Jowell embiid, but sobonis another monster game. Lavert hitting big shots.

652
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 5: The Nuggets clinched home court advantage for at least one

653
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 5: playoff series with the victory over the Hornets. And then

654
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 5: we had the Clippers spanking the Raps, Bucks beating the

655
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 5: Magic King's crushing ok Se Sacramento technically still alive too,

656
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,719
Speaker 5: try to get into play in but probably not happening.

657
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 5: And then Minnesota beating Detroit. Where you want to go, Trey.

658
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 2: Theull Bulls, you know, still technically alive. Gonna be basically

659
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 2: impossible though, After last night, Carris Lavert Demonta Sebonis. A

660
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 2: couple of nice games back to back for the Indiana

661
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 2: Pacers to lock them in to the play in tournament there,

662
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 2: And obviously it would have been nice for the Bulls

663
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 2: to beat the Nets, but you know, they beat them

664
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 2: once this year and a second time was gonna be

665
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 2: a tough one. So yeah, they the Bulls. They got

666
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 2: to go perfect from here on out and get some help.

667
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 2: I don't think it's gonna happen, but you know, Zach

668
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 2: Lavine scored forty one points last night.

669
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 3: That was cool, very very cool, very cool, very cool.

670
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 5: I saw somebody in the stream team here. I'll throw

671
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 5: it up if I can find it. Flickxer dk. Is

672
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:46,719
Speaker 5: it good for Minnesota to win if they lose their

673
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 5: draft pick? That is something to watch right now. They've

674
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 5: won two in a row.

675
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 3: Lee.

676
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm just looking at tankathon dot com. They fallen, fallen.

677
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 5: I throw in air quotes two sixth Right. In terms

678
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 5: of the worst record in the league, you got Houston

679
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 5: running away with this thing with the best chances, or

680
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 5: at least splitting that three way tie for the best

681
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 5: chances with Detroit who has twenty wins. OKAC with twenty

682
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 5: one wins, and then it's Cleveland twenty one wins, or

683
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 5: Lando twenty one wins, and then Minnesota twenty two wins

684
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 5: again after having won two in a row. And you know,

685
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 5: if it stays like that, they still have a nine

686
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 5: percent chance to get the number one pick, you know,

687
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 5: something close to like a thirty eight percent chance to

688
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 5: get into the top four, but they do have to

689
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 5: give up that pick if it's not top three? Is

690
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 5: that right to the Golden State Warriors. So it's yeah,

691
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 5: it's interesting. They are winning some games here. They look,

692
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 5: you know, they're playing the Pistons. It was a dominant

693
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 5: win for them. But will they do some shenanigans here

694
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 5: over the next couple of nights and just say, okay,

695
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 5: everybody sit down, everybody relax, because let's try and let's

696
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 5: try and like get ahead of a couple of those

697
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 5: teams were only one win ahead of them.

698
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 4: Look, it's it's a tough thing because it's been such

699
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 4: a bad season there in Minnesota. I think you don't

700
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 4: want to then look like you're tanking. But of course

701
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 4: if you do, and you can preach your chance of

702
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 4: getting a better player next season, then maybe it's worth it.

703
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 4: Now they've got the nugge. They've got three games left,

704
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 4: all at home, Nuggets, Celtics, and the Mavericks. Now the Nuggets,

705
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 4: as you mentioned, have clinched a home court advantage, So

706
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 4: do they maybe start to look to wrestling players? Who

707
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 4: knows how teams are going to play these last couple

708
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 4: of games. But for the Timberwolves, you hope that for

709
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 4: this season, after what's going on that at least, I

710
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:28,719
Speaker 4: don't know what to do. I don't know what they

711
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 4: should do, to be honest, because you know, Anthony Edwards

712
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 4: has been great for them, no question, So they've got

713
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 4: one very nice piece there Towns. You know, he's looking

714
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 4: to win now and Russell's been good since he come back.

715
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 4: So there's been some good vibes there in Minnesota. So

716
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 4: does it does it matter if they if they may

717
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 4: have it in the last couple of games, probably not

718
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 4: in the ground scheme of things. So maybe they should

719
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 4: just take that route.

720
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,239
Speaker 5: Well, don't the draft experts say this is like a

721
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 5: five man draft anyway? TK like right now they well

722
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 5: actually hold on, they'd be losing their pick if they're

723
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 5: not top three. That wouldn't be theirs to have I guess, yeah,

724
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 5: what do you do, Trey, if you're Minnesota, do you

725
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 5: shut it down here for the rest of this week

726
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 5: and try and like again help your chances of keeping

727
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 5: your pick and falling in the top three. Already, Let

728
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 5: the basketball gods maybe reward you for trying to like

729
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 5: win some games here, put a little winning streak together,

730
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 5: and you know, maybe get lucky with the lottery balls.

731
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 3: That's what I do.

732
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 2: Continue to pay tribute to the basketball gods, because compared

733
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 2: to the Rockets and the dastardly Thunder, the Timberwolves are

734
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 2: the only of those three teams who have not really

735
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 2: tanked it hard here in the second half of the season.

736
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 2: What the Thunder are doing is honestly bananas, Like they're

737
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 2: like they are not in the NBA right now. At

738
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 2: least the Rockets are playing their standard. Guys, I'm tanking

739
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 2: down here, dropping my water bottle, snack you.

740
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 3: He's always kicking it. You know.

741
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 2: I got a vanity, a vanity here for a desk,

742
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 2: so I can't really keep it on because my arms

743
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 2: are too big, so I keep it on the floor

744
00:32:58,360 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 2: and or forget about.

745
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 3: It, I knock it over. And you also have pick

746
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 3: that thing up. It's like, that's the other part. Like

747
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 3: I always want to like, what are you just like

748
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:11,720
Speaker 3: man something?

749
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, sometimes you think I want to have two

750
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 2: water bottles. You think I want to be refilling this

751
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 2: thing left and right.

752
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 5: Sometimes I see you, like when you're off camera, like

753
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 5: take a little sip and struggling it up.

754
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 3: It looks so heavy, you know.

755
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know. I'm trying to get my muscles

756
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 2: up skeets. It's hard to get your hands on dumbbells

757
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,239
Speaker 2: these days, so I like to fill this thing up

758
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 2: and go for a full pump.

759
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 3: Look, you could actually see him rippling here on it.

760
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:38,080
Speaker 3: Crazy man.

761
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 2: But yeah, just like I'm paying tribute to the muscle gods,

762
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 2: I think the Timberwolves need to continue play paying tribute

763
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 2: to the basketball gods.

764
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 3: They will be rewarded. I don't think they should.

765
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 2: Be rewarded with the number one picking back to back seasons,

766
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 2: but the number two would be fine.

767
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, let's take a break and then let's

768
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 5: hit the beach.

769
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 3: Oh you have a little beach.

Speaker 5: Te's got some questions for you, guys. Yeah, a little

Speaker 5: get to the first one here. Hey boys, The Wizard's

777
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,839
Speaker 5: late season mediocre rise has got me wondering if some

778
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 5: teams missed an opportunity to jump aboard the Westbrook triple

779
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 5: double train to team intensity considering his depreciated trade value

780
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,880
Speaker 5: at the time, I'm leaning towards yes. So my question

781
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 5: is this, which teams do you think should have jumped

782
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 5: out of Westbrook trade earlier in the season. My vote

783
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:55,399
Speaker 5: goes towards the struggling Celtics. A Kemba Westbrook swap could

784
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,240
Speaker 5: have had a huge impact on how their disappointing season

785
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 5: played out. The Piddlin being town Boys may have been

786
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 5: transformed into a group of mighty lightning legome lads with

787
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:12,840
Speaker 5: Westbrook simmering in the pot temperary Lema Garbanzo at Zuki

788
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 5: coming at y'all by way of Saudi Arabia. This is

789
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:20,720
Speaker 5: from Wilkerson, so yes he did. I will say title

790
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:22,799
Speaker 5: this email like twenty twenty hindsight here.

791
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 3: But that's the.

792
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 5: Question, Lee, if you could go back, if you're a

793
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 5: GM of another team and Westbrook's to be had for

794
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 5: a trade, who should have done it in hopes of

795
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 5: maybe like saving their season or going in a different direction.

796
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 3: You got anything? Or do you agree with the Beantown

797
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 3: boy swap there?

798
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 4: Well? I think again, if we're assuming that you have

799
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,760
Speaker 4: to make a trade that works, I guess the Kimba

800
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 4: one does. But it's just is whether or not that

801
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,359
Speaker 4: injury would have prevented the Rockets from saying we want

802
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 4: to take Kember. Maybe they could have gotten someone, but

803
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 4: of course they picked up John Wall who'd missed a

804
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 4: couple of years. Yeah, I remember floating the idea of

805
00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 4: the Jazz because Mike Conley didn't Things didn't really work

806
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 4: out there with him in his first season, and their

807
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 4: contracts kind of were close as well, Westbrook and Conley,

808
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 4: and I thought, I think maybe he can inject them

809
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 4: a little bit more, you know, a little bit more pace.

810
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 4: Conley's turned out to be pretty much fantastic for them

811
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,279
Speaker 4: this season, so you know, no surprise the Jazz didn't

812
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 4: do that. They made the right choice. I think the

813
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 4: only other team.

814
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook would like playing in your time.

815
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 4: No, I don't think so, but I I just sort

816
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 4: of thought that, you know, it's like, hey, it's the

817
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 4: sort of same thing. Well, Conley opted into that contract

818
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 4: and then it was like okay, anyway. The other team

819
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 4: I thought may have tried to make it work was

820
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 4: the Clippers. You know, when a team kind of is

821
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 4: desperate like this, and we knew James Harden was kind of,

822
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,399
Speaker 4: you know, potentially on the move, and the Clippers, after

823
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 4: what happened last season, they needed someone else who could

824
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:44,799
Speaker 4: kind of be their ball handler. And I thought, I

825
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 4: think I remember looking into you know, Lou Williams was there,

826
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 4: and someone else had a con I mean, he had,

827
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 4: you know, Westbrook doarning so much money. It was going

828
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 4: to cost them a couple of players. But I just

829
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 4: thought a team after what happened last season, that desperation

830
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 4: may have decided, hey, let's get Westbrook. He's a local guy.

831
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 4: Well he's going to go to a team, you know

832
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 4: that's got high expectations. This might be the right situation

833
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 4: for him. So, you know, I think I still think

834
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 4: he probably could, you know, somehow squeeze in on that

835
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 4: team playing alongside a couple of other legit stars where

836
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 4: he wouldn't feel, you know, he has to do has

837
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,319
Speaker 4: to do all himself. He has to just get those

838
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 4: guys the ball, which could be better for us. So,

839
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,360
Speaker 4: you know, that was one situation, and it would be

840
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 4: interesting to see him on the Clippers right now too,

841
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 4: playing the way he is, just to see because they

842
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,399
Speaker 4: you know, they added Rondo because they do need another

843
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 4: ball handle, I mean a different type of player. But

844
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 4: I think that's the sort of situation that I you know,

845
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:36,840
Speaker 4: could have seen him, you know, sort of could have

846
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 4: seen unfollowing the Clippers just going all in again to

847
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 4: try to get whatever they could if they could have

848
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 4: made the salaries work somehow.

849
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,239
Speaker 5: Okay, Trey, any other teams come to mind that could

850
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:47,399
Speaker 5: go back, if you could go back and grab yourself

851
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:47,920
Speaker 5: a Westbrook.

852
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 2: There, get yourself a Westbrook. Would you think Skids? Would

853
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 2: the Balls and Raptors have made the playoffs if they

854
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 2: were the teams to trade for Russell Westbrook. Obviously the

855
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 2: Balls went for Vucevic, but I mean, you know, money

856
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 2: wise and team wise, it wouldn't be too different. The

857
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,280
Speaker 2: Bulls having Levine and Westbrook would be kind of similar

858
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 2: to the Wizards having Westbrook and Beal, I think, and you.

859
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 3: Know, the Raptors.

860
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 2: It would be very weird to consider a trade where

861
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,359
Speaker 2: Kyle Lowry, I suppose, would be the guy going out

862
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 2: bringing in Westbrook. But as soon as you get Russell Westbrook,

863
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 2: you start to turn into a Russell Westbrook team, and

864
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 2: at the very least that's going to give you a

865
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 2: lot of triple doubles and knocking on the door of

866
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 2: a playoff spot.

867
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 3: So I don't know.

868
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:30,400
Speaker 2: I mean, that's the weird thing. It's almost impossible to

869
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 2: imagine Westbrook on other teams because that other team just

870
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 2: turns into the same team that we've seen, whether it

871
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,320
Speaker 2: be the Thunder or the Rockets or now the Wizards.

872
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 2: Eventually you just turned into a Westbrook team and that's

873
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:41,280
Speaker 2: how he thrives.

874
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 5: Our next question here, sup No dunks. I was recently

875
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 5: listening to the Mismatch podcast discussing Kristaps Porzingis, and it

876
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,320
Speaker 5: got me thinking, has Tim Hardaway Junior been a better

877
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 5: acquisition for the MAVs than KP Both were involved in

878
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,760
Speaker 5: the Knicks Mass trade, and THHJ has been a regular

879
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 5: solid contributor ever since. While Kristaps has been constantly injured

880
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 5: and has never really lived up to the height that

881
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 5: he was producing in New York. Are there any other

882
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 5: trades where a thrown in player has potentially outplayed the

883
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 5: main acquisition? Hashtag didn't know this was a hashtag THHJ

884
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 5: fifty Yeah, whole net hole that Tim Hardaway Junior will

885
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:21,319
Speaker 5: pop off for fifty here.

886
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 3: Thanks.

887
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 5: That's from Cameron all the way down in Tasmania, Australia. So, Trey,

888
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 5: it's a good question. I don't know if you want

889
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 5: to talk about even the concept there with Tim Hardaway

890
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 5: Junior being really solid of course for the Mavericks in

891
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 5: that Porzingis trade, but are there other ones that are

892
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 5: like that that come to mind?

893
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 2: Well, for the first part, I would say that Tim

894
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 2: Hardaway Junior has been better for the MAVs than Kristaps Porzingis.

895
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 2: But I also think that what Tim Hardaway brings to

896
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 2: a team is exactly what the Mavericks need. They need

897
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 2: somebody with a quick trigger who's going to chuck the threes.

898
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,919
Speaker 2: That is something you can find elsewhere. So I think

899
00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:00,400
Speaker 2: Tim Hardaway is probably a little easier to replace. Obviously,

900
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 2: the thing with porzingis is. He hasn't been able to

901
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 2: stay on the court. But you see why the Knicks

902
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 2: or why the Mavericks are interested in that trade because

903
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 2: the match between Doncic and Porzingis it's ideal.

904
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 3: That's exactly what you're looking for. Somebody who can stretch.

905
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 2: The court, somebody who gives him a little help, maybe

906
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,839
Speaker 2: roll into the room occasionally. So yes, I would say

907
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 2: Tim Hardaway Junior has been better for the MAVs, but

908
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 2: the idea of Porzingis remains better. Okay, for another thrown

909
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 2: in guy who has outplayed the main acquisition, gotta be

910
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 2: Chris Middleton. Drafted by Detroit way back when number thirty

911
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,720
Speaker 2: nine pick. He played in twenty seven games as a rookie,

912
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 2: averaged six points per game, but he was thrown into

913
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 2: the Brandon for Brandon trade, Brandon Jennings going to the

914
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 2: Detroit Pistons, Brandon Knight, Vishelev Krevstoff, and Chris Middleton going.

915
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 3: Back till Milwaukee.

916
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,279
Speaker 2: Middleton got better instantly, but it still took him a

917
00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 2: couple of seasons to actually become the starter for the Bucks.

918
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,440
Speaker 2: Now he's a two time All Star, twenty point per

919
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:05,239
Speaker 2: game guy. He's right near fifty forty ninety part of

920
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,919
Speaker 2: a title contending corps, and that was just a guy

921
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 2: that was basically thrown in for these two, you know,

922
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 2: brandon point guards who were both kind of stalling out

923
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,760
Speaker 2: into places where they were maybe a change of scenery

924
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 2: was going to help them, maybe they were going to

925
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 2: be able to actually, you know, shoot the ball well

926
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 2: from outside. None of that transpired. Both Brandon Jennings and

927
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 2: Brandon Knight out of the league. If I'm not mistaken

928
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,400
Speaker 2: right now, maybe Brandon Knight had a cup of coffee

929
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 2: here this.

930
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 3: Season or last season.

931
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 2: But Middleton has become an All Star, one of the

932
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 2: most underrated players in the game. That guy was just

933
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 2: a thrown in second round draft pick not too long ago.

934
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 5: That's really good to see a lot of people in

935
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 5: the stream team suggesting this one too. Leally Sobonis in

936
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 5: the Paul George for Oladipo trade.

937
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:48,280
Speaker 3: That's a great one.

938
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 5: Again, many of you dropping that one, including a meel

939
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 5: Nate there. That's true, and he's turned into an All

940
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 5: NBA fifth team player. Now that's like maybe fourth I

941
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 5: may bump them up even because this keeps racking up

942
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,360
Speaker 5: triple double he's averaging and scene numbers here in the

943
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 5: month of May as we cause out the season, any

944
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:06,719
Speaker 5: other ones come to mind?

945
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 4: Well slightly a slightly different Anglan. This was two players

946
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 4: who were basically thrown into a trade when Grant Hill

947
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 4: left the Pistons to go to the Magic and he

948
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:17,839
Speaker 4: basically said he's leaving as a free agent. They worked

949
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,200
Speaker 4: out a sign and trade. That sign and trade turned

950
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 4: out to be Chuckie Atkins, okay, and then Ben Wallace.

951
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 4: Ben Wallace is basically just like thrown in. It's like,

952
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 4: all right, take Ben Wallace. He turned into potentially a

953
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 4: Hall of Famer. In fact, what we where are wet?

954
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 3: They announced the winners, so going in this weekend?

955
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 5: I think, yeah, the Koby's and the Duncans of the world.

956
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, So I'm not sure if he's He was

957
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 4: nominated though, wasn't he Ben Wallason?

958
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think he's going in though I can

959
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 5: never keep track with.

960
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 4: The I know, I know because they sort of announced

961
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 4: the finalists and then anyway, but Ben Wallace, I mean,

962
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 4: you could argue he had a better career after that

963
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,399
Speaker 4: trade than grand Hill. I mean, largely of course, because

964
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:57,399
Speaker 4: of the injuries, but four time All Star All NBA

965
00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:59,799
Speaker 4: Defensive Player of the Year. I mean, he was just

966
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 4: an incredible pick up there for the Pistons, won a

967
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 4: championship as well as as a huge huge factor on

968
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 4: the team. You know he's created sort of did tell

969
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:10,879
Speaker 4: you off a little bit after those Pistons days. But

970
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 4: uh man, what a pickup at off the scrap pig

971
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,880
Speaker 4: there for the Pistons, considering Grant Hill was going for nothing.

972
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:18,800
Speaker 3: That's an awesome one. I hadn't even thought about that one.

973
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 5: Yes, Rap Stallion, Ben Wallace better be a Hall of Famer.

974
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:22,799
Speaker 3: We agree with you.

975
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,320
Speaker 5: We're just confused whether or not he's actually going in

976
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 5: this weekend. I don't think he is. I think I

977
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 5: think it's I really think it's like KG, We're like,

978
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,040
Speaker 5: aren't we a year behind too? Isn't that the whole thing?

979
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 5: I think it's just Duncan, Garnett and Kobe.

980
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 3: I think I don't know.

981
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 5: I know Mark Spears, our guy Mark Spears is involved

982
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 5: in this. This weekend went to Hoop Paul. We're all

983
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 5: trying to make sense of it. But yeah, Ben Wallace,

984
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 5: we agree with you, Rap Stallion, that he will eventually

985
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:56,399
Speaker 5: be a Hall of Famer. I just don't think it's

986
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:59,400
Speaker 5: happening this season. But right I can't keep track. I

987
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,439
Speaker 5: think I am, I think I got it. I sort

988
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,240
Speaker 5: of half asked, keep my eye on this stuff. Okay,

989
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 5: great questions. Throw them out everybody in the stream team.

00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:48,919
Speaker 2: Way.

1087
00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:50,640
Speaker 3: The Cats are that bad?

1088
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 4: Actually, yeah, yeah, let me just check it doesn't. I'll

1089
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:56,439
Speaker 4: take the Cats to cover. I think they can cover.

1090
00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 4: I don't know what I'm doing of lost track. I'm

1091
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:00,719
Speaker 4: trying to pick loses by pick the win it. So

1092
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 4: I think the Calves CoV of that one.

1093
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,239
Speaker 5: Okay, let's go right to Task. Let's find out who

1094
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:06,800
Speaker 5: he's taking.

1095
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:08,840
Speaker 3: Who picked this stupid game.

1096
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:13,280
Speaker 2: I'm seeing on some sites that the betting is half

1097
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:14,920
Speaker 2: for the Celtics and half.

1098
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:16,799
Speaker 3: For the Calves. That's why it's so tough. I can't

1099
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 3: get anything right anyways. So I'm gonna go with the Celtic.

1100
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, this is good. This is good.

1101
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,360
Speaker 5: Guys are on the opposite sides here, Task taking Boston

1102
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 5: to win by ten or more. Wow, And Lee thinks

1103
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:32,720
Speaker 5: the Calves could cover Trey. You're on fire.

1104
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:33,560
Speaker 3: Close it out here.

1105
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 2: Who be like, oh, yeah, that's tough one right here.

1106
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:40,279
Speaker 2: The Calves have lost eleven straight games. I don't know

1107
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 2: about that I just watched one of them. Dean Wade

1108
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 2: was straight up balling as you have it in him again.

1109
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:51,280
Speaker 2: The Celtics, they actually really need a win. I'm going Cleveland.

1110
00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 2: I'm going Cleveland. I think I think Boston takes the win,

1111
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 2: but not by enough.

1112
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:58,760
Speaker 3: Give me the Calves. I'm gonna go with Tassie.

1113
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take Boston in a blowout here, a real

1114
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 5: good twenty five point shell lacking, even though it's a

1115
00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 5: back to back situation. All right, we're split on this one.

1116
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:09,799
Speaker 5: A couple guys taking Cleveland, couple guys taking Boston win

1117
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:10,439
Speaker 5: by ten or more.

1118
