1
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: When life closes the door, just open it again. It's

2
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:09,920
Speaker 1: a fucking door. That's how they work. What do you scared?

3
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 2: It's Wednesday, Grows some Bulls.

4
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:26,119
Speaker 3: Jessy, Good morning, sweet world, and welcome to the Nodungks

Speaker 3: podcast on the Athletic Network.

6
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 4: It's Wednesday, November sixth, twenty twenty four. I'm Jay Skeets

00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,599
Speaker 4: here in the Classic Factory and alongside me as always Task.

8
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,560
Speaker 2: Mellis podcast listeners, YouTube viewers, this is for you.

00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 4: Next to him, it's the Pickleman, Trey Kirby, Hey, hey yo,

10
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,480
Speaker 4: and over Yonder making the magic happen. Super producer JD.

11
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: Hello, there is and here we are.

12
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 4: Going with the beard in the pickle costume on Wednesday today. Yeah,

13
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 4: I'm going for more of a corn.

14
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: Holy oh. Look, I don't know if it's gonna last

15
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 1: the whole show because I'm feeling warmer. It feels weird,

16
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: but I hate it the end of the shows. Usually

17
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 1: I look like an out of work band director, sounds

18
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,759
Speaker 1: in my hair, just all on my face. So I'm

19
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: hoping this will. I don't know, literally, I don't know.

20
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: I have to change it out, just try say.

21
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 2: I sense the inspiration though, the AO was happier. It

22
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 2: seemed like a little bit yesterday exactly.

23
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, other concerns we are hitting yesterday. Biggest problem

24
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: for me yesterday was having he put this on a

25
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 1: second day today. I was gloriously putting on a pickle.

26
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: Cost it better than a Robin Lopez cost It is

27
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 1: what I said.

28
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 4: So we're gonna hit the beach on today's podcast. You guys,

29
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 4: send in your emails, you send in your tweets. We

30
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 4: got some fun cues to tackle. But we have some

31
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 4: NBA news. First. The league announced yesterday that seventy six

32
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 4: or star Dwell Embiid will be suspended for three games

33
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 4: for shoving columnist Marcus Hayes after Saturday's lost to the Grizzlies.

34
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 4: I'm quoting Joe Dumars here, which he said in a

35
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 4: statement Mutual respect is paramount to the relationship between players

36
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 4: and media in the NBA. While we understand Joelle was

37
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 4: offended by the personal nature of the original version of

38
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 4: the reporters column, interactions must remain professional on both sides

39
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 4: and can never turn physical. End quote three games four Embiid.

40
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 4: I think we have learned that he is going to

41
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 4: start the suspension basically tonight right Sham's reporting that he's

42
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 4: going to miss tonight's game against the Clippers, Friday's game

43
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 4: against the Lakers, and Sunday's game versus the Hornets, meaning

44
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 4: he will make his debut in theory for the first

45
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 4: game of the NBA Cup when the Sixers take on

46
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:36,679
Speaker 4: the Knicks November twelfth.

47
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 2: Because you have to start your suspension basically when you

48
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 2: can play, so they have deemed yeah, I can play.

49
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:43,519
Speaker 1: Totally ready.

50
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 4: What weird time.

51
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 2: Starting for the Emirates Cup. It'll be his first game.

52
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 2: Weird on the.

53
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 4: Twelfth in Philadelphia. Were you shocked at all by the

54
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 4: three game suspension? Like when we talked about it, we

55
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 4: were like, he's going to get suspended. He is be

56
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 4: it one, two, three games? They go three too severe?

57
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 4: Just right?

58
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 2: It seems in the ballpark of being just right. You

59
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 2: can't shove someone. That being said, I understand by Joel

60
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 2: Embiid was quite angry at mister Hayes' comments to basically say, hey,

61
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 2: you want to play to inspire your son, who is

62
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 2: named after your dead brother, then you got to show

63
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 2: up for work. Quote he said, you have to You

64
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 2: first have to show up for work. Embiide has been

65
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 2: great at just the opposite. I mean, that was really

66
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 2: it was.

67
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,639
Speaker 1: Not the nicest thing to say.

68
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: It just wasn't appropriate, and that's why they retracted it.

69
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 2: That's why it was gone from that article. It was

70
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 2: literally retracted. Hayes did apologize on Twitter. He said, quote,

71
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 2: so I rewrote the lead to my column and replace

72
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 2: the picture. I can see why so many people are

73
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 2: upset about it. Sorry about that. Thanks for all the

74
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 2: constructive criticism. Yeah, it's an unfortunate column, that is for sure.

75
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 2: The whole thing is unfortunately. I can see why Embiid

76
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: is angry about it. The guy has given his heart

77
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,839
Speaker 2: and soul to this team. You know, whether you say

78
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 2: he doesn't play through games and Andrew, I can't understand

79
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 2: why he was man so yes, I guess the three

80
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: is right. You can't shove somebody. He shoved him in

81
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 2: the shoulder. By all accounts, he put his hand a

82
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 2: mister Hayes shoulder and that was it. Frankly, that was

83
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 2: the whole thing. I don't think this is the NBA

84
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 2: mad about them not playing Embiid and Paul Georgian back

85
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 2: to back situations. As they've said they're going to do.

86
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: I don't think this particular suspension is about that. I

87
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 2: think this is just about pushing something.

88
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 4: Can't put your hands on someone. Yeah, it's not a

89
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 4: professional matter.

90
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: Exactly. When I saw three games, I thought it was

91
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: a little excessive, so I went to look at, like,

92
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: you know, other recent expen suspensions for stuff. Isaiah Stewart

93
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: remember got three games last year for punching Drew you

94
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 1: Banks before a game. A little bit different, certainly, but

95
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, off the court incident three games. I guess

96
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: it adds up. They had to set a precedent here

97
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: because you can't have this kind of physical altercations between

98
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: NBA and media. But tasses right like Marcus Haynes. He

99
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 1: gets to apologize on Twitter. A lot of people I'm

100
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: sure aren't seeing that, and then he's just gonna go

101
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 1: back to writing columns. It's all unfair. I think that

102
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,359
Speaker 1: Embiid bears the brunt of everything, but he's also the

103
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: bigger name, and he's the one that the league can

104
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 1: actually be in charge of and hand out discipline. I

105
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: guess if I'm a Sixers fan, I would be most

106
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: excited that I actually know when Joel Embid is coming back.

107
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 1: He actually got a date on the calendar to look

108
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 1: forward to him playing.

109
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a good point. Yeah, there was a lot

110
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 4: of jokes flying that the punishment should be he has

111
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 4: to play in the next three games. He saw that

112
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 4: as a suspension. But I think this is the only

113
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 4: second suspension of Embids's career. He got into, you know,

114
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 4: a fight whatever, not really a fight, but you know

115
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 4: what I mean with Karl Anthony Towns. Yeah, back in

116
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 4: twenty nineteen, and he got two games for that. They

117
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 4: both did.

118
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: If you remember that little incident that was Did Ben

119
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: Simmons get suspended that game as well? That way for

120
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: being a peacemaker with his arms? Is that the same suspension?

121
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 4: Right? That's the only time Empid's been suspended. Was that

122
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 4: little dust up there with Karl Anthony Towns.

123
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 2: That was great that that dust up led to another

124
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 2: game where they played later on in the season. Yeah,

125
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 2: that was a great little ride. Sure, And I know

126
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 2: the NBA in general is upset with the Philadelphia seventy

127
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 2: six ers for going out and saying that Joel and

128
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 2: Beat and Paul George aren't gonna play in both half

129
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 2: of back to backs. That's why they find them one

130
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars last week. It's because of that that

131
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 2: they find him. And so that's the unfortunate part for

132
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 2: the Sixers basically saying, yeah, we're trying to get Joel

133
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 2: and Beat healthy for the postseason. That's what they're trying

134
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 2: to do. That's why he's not sitting there or he

135
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 2: excuse me, that's why he's not playing in both half

136
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 2: of back to backs.

137
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 4: But you can understand the NBA's concern with how they

138
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 4: go about doing it. Like we already as is, nobody

139
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 4: gives a shit about the regular season, like it's like

140
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 4: been diluted to like it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter,

141
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 4: it doesn't matter. And the Sixers, again, I get you

142
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 4: need and Beat healthy come postseason, but they're like doubling

143
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 4: down on that. Well, it doesn't really matter. So we

144
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 4: will just tell you right now left knee management, and

145
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,479
Speaker 4: we don't really know when he's gonna play all that much.

146
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 4: And we're you know, he's not gonna play the start

147
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 4: of the season here, even though he playing in the

148
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 4: Olympics and all that. It's like, I don't know, that's

149
00:06:58,880 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 4: a little lot.

150
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 2: I don't think the it can be upset about that.

151
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: They guess find the one hundred thousand dollars. They were

152
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: upset by it.

153
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I know. Yeah, I'm very aware that they

154
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 2: were set by them. But they shouldn't have back to backs.

155
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 2: I mean, the guy has to be healthy for the postseason.

156
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 2: He hasn't been healthy for the postseason basically every year

157
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: of his career, and so they're saying, yes, we want

158
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 2: him to be healthy. But I understand the NBA is

159
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 2: side of things. I mean, a couple of years ago,

160
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 2: Adam Silver, they deemed that back to backs aren't healthy

161
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 2: for players. Playing all that all those games isn't healthy.

162
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 2: Then they reversed it and said, yeah, there's no actual

163
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 2: scientific evidence beyond that. Because they wanted to get the

164
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 2: TV deal signed, and so they're telling TV's deal or

165
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 2: TV stations, any TV company, basically, we're going to play

166
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 2: eighty two games. But we all know that back to

167
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: backs isn't good for players. It's just not just you

168
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: got to expand the season by two weeks and we

169
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 2: can take away the fifteen back to backs for every team.

170
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: So you would be okay.

171
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 4: If the Sixers, if it was up to them, they

172
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 4: would just be like, you know what and be just

173
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 4: take the regular season off or come back in uh,

174
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 4: you know that's crazy in April and get ready for

175
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 4: the playoffs. Well, I mean that's obviously the severe end

176
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 4: of the spectrum. But like if the whole plan is

177
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 4: to have him healthy, why, like, would you be okay

178
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 4: with that?

179
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: No?

180
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 2: Way, No, he wouldn't be a good basketball player if

181
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 2: he didn't if he missed the fun playing. They said

182
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 2: he's missing fifteen games essentially because of their back to backs.

183
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 2: I think they have the averages fifteen in the NBA,

184
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 2: so I'm just deeming it fifteen. I don't know what

185
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 2: they have somewhere around there that he's missing fifteen games.

186
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 2: He hasn't been healthy since he's entered the league. In

187
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 2: the playoffs, okay, but he has to be healthy for

188
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 2: the postseason, he said it.

189
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 4: I'm looking at this from a fan perspective. He just

190
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 4: played in the Olympics. Yeah, he was healthy when I

191
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 4: saw back to backs there. Well, okay, the back to back.

192
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 4: I'm with you, back to backs, but yeah, I think

193
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 4: there are more concerned, Like it's like they're not really

194
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 4: calling it an injury. This specific part of his knee

195
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 4: it's like this management. They literally said left knee management.

196
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: Well that's why I got fined, right was yea, because

197
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: they weren't forthcoming with the injury status. But that's because

198
00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: in B doesn't want them to be forthcoming with his

199
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: injur status. Same reason. They said it was a procedure

200
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: last year, not a surgery, when everybody knew it was

201
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 1: a surgery. So they got fined one hundred thousand dollars.

202
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: That's nothing, right, Like, that's literally nothing, and he's not playing.

203
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: Just be honest with it or lie better. It's basically

204
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: what the NBA is saying when they come down with

205
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 1: these fines.

206
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, back to backs ain't good. They want to

207
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 2: copy the NFL in many ways. NFL everybody plays because

208
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 2: you only play once a week. We just got to

209
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 2: take away a few days. You're just expanding it by

210
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 2: two weeks. That's all. That's all you got to ask,

211
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 2: that's all.

212
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 1: That's all.

213
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 4: The issue right now is not him not playing in

214
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 4: back to backs, it's not him playing at all. Those

215
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 4: are two massively different things. Yes, okay, anyway, as Low said,

216
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 4: another very normal season for the Sixers in a decade

217
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 4: plus long streak of totally normal basketball seasons.

218
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, well what would be normal is if he gets

219
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 2: injured for the playoffs. That's that's normal embed life. Unfortunately,

220
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 2: he just can't get healthy, so that's what they're trying

221
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 2: to do. And Paul George, which is another thing. So yeah,

222
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:56,959
Speaker 2: they got a lot of problems.

223
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 4: Like you said, we know, deary know, he's playing on

224
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 4: November twelfth. He's gonna play in this first game this

225
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 4: season in this NBA Cup, Big big game there, all right.

226
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 4: In other injury news, the Denver Nuggets will be without

227
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 4: starting power forward Aaron Gordon for multiple weeks due to

228
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 4: a calf injury. Ag suffered this injury and the Nuggets

229
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 4: went over the Raptors on Monday night. He only played

230
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 4: like three or four minutes. Obviously didn't return to the game.

231
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 4: And it's gonna miss extended time here, t K. This

232
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 4: is I mean, I'm saying the obvious here. Not great

233
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 4: for the Nuggets, who already pretty shawl when it comes

234
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 4: to the depths and how they've started their season and

235
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 4: scraping out some victories against some of these worst teams. Uh,

236
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 4: and now they're gonna miss a g Here comes this whisky.

237
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: This is not working. No, no, it looks worse, uh

238
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 1: speaking though, every pickle day you're here.

239
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's here.

240
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: Back to back, back, back, back to back to back.

241
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: I'm doing five straight back to backs. Joel Embi could

242
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: never worst case scenario for the Nuggets would be Nikolay

243
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,839
Speaker 1: Jokic going down for an entire season. This is maybe

244
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: second worst case scenario because they're losing their starting power forward,

245
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: their best defender, their backup center, and their bench ball handler.

246
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 1: With Jamal Murray being out right now, like Aaron Gordon

247
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: has been their second best player this season. Jokic is

248
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: obviously doing his thing, but Aaron Gordon is just such

249
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 1: an integral piece to the Nuggets for everything he does,

250
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 1: the chemistry he has with the Jokich. He's gonna guard

251
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: the big wings when he plays defensively. There were already

252
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 1: question marks up and down the roster for the Nuggets

253
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: with regards to their depth, and now you're having to

254
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: dip in even further into the bag. We're getting Hunter

255
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 1: Tyson minutes here, We're getting Zeke Naji minutes. It's your time.

256
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: Peyton Watson probably gonna be a starter here. He had

257
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: a nice game against the Raptors. Certainly, let's see what

258
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: it's like as a starter. You're playing with Jokic, You're

259
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 1: gonna get good shots and Yatta knock him down. But

260
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: I look at this and it all depends on how

261
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: long Aaron Gordon's gonna be out if he gets reinjured.

262
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: But they're certainly playing potential I think for the Nuggets

263
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,079
Speaker 1: right now. It seems ridiculous, but I kind of compare

264
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: it to the Warriors last season. They lost Draymond Green

265
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: for sixteen games, not their best player, but definitely their

266
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 1: best defensive player and integral to the success of the

267
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: offense with Steph Curry as well. He missed sixteen games.

268
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: The Warriors went eight and eight. That's fine. I like

269
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: fifty percent of your wins, That's okay. They finished with

270
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: the tenth seed, three games from the sixth. It could

271
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,839
Speaker 1: happen that quickly one month out. So yeah, I'm a

272
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 1: little worried if I'm a Nuggets fan.

273
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially in the Western Conference. I don't think that's

274
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 2: crazy at all. We might be seeing the end of

275
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 2: the Nuggets championship run right here. They could miss the

276
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 2: postseason because of this, because of Aaron Gordon being out.

277
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 2: He is their heart and soul in a very very

278
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 2: very tough Western Conference. I mean he's their heart and

279
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 2: soul on the offensive end in a way as well,

280
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 2: especially on the defensive end. The playoffs are not a

281
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 2: guarantee for this team. Their four and three only wins

282
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 2: are against non playoff teams from last season Jazz Nets

283
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 2: and the Raptors twice, which they kind of got lucky

284
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 2: with anyway. Their losses have been two playoff teams Minnesota,

285
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 2: the Clippers, and ok See all made the playoffs last season,

286
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 2: So you got to play these good teams over and

287
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,839
Speaker 2: over over again. They get okay See again tonight. Good

288
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 2: luck with that. That's going to be very very troublesome.

289
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 2: But ag is just a glue guy, and I may

290
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 2: super yeah. Glue guy is a little bit demeaning with

291
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 2: there in Gordon, but he is literally if there's any

292
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 2: form of glue sticking that team together, it's that guy

293
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 2: on both ends, just there where he has to be

294
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 2: on the offensive en for Yokic bass to him and

295
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,319
Speaker 2: taking the other team's best defensive player a lot of

296
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 2: the time, just being everywhere. So yes, yes, the emotional

297
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 2: part of it is this is big in that Western Conference.

298
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 4: They're gonna need a couple strong weeks here from Michael

299
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 4: Porter Junior to sort of like maintain maybe a five

300
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 4: hundred record or above, because he's had a couple decent games.

301
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 4: I know he had a good one in the win

302
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 4: against the Nets and the Jazz, but he has just

303
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 4: said it's like sort of been a knock his entire career, right,

304
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 4: He's just not consistent enough for a guy that is

305
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 4: paid max money. He has to really string these games together,

306
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 4: and especially now with Aaron Gordon Oute who just signed

307
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 4: his contract extension what right before the start of the season,

308
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 4: the four year, one hundred and thirty three million dollars.

309
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 4: So sucks for the Nuggets in a weird start to

310
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:56,199
Speaker 4: their season. I guess the only other takeaway is maybe

311
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 4: this does set up for another Yokich MVP, Like this

312
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,319
Speaker 4: is like the narrative he talked about is like the

313
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 4: only way he can win a fourth one is like

314
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 4: if nobody plays on his team and he like drags

315
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 4: them to like a good record once again. But I'm

316
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 4: with you, guys, I don't think they're gonna be top

317
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 4: four in the Western Conference. Didn't feel like it what

318
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 4: we've seen at least so far, and now these guys

319
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 4: dropping my flies here. It'll probably be near the bottom

320
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 4: there of the playoffs or playing possibly. Other injury news,

321
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 4: Jeremy Sohan has suffered a fractured left thumb and he's

322
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 4: scheduled to have surgery this week. I just slipped that

323
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 4: in there because they just keep coming. Guy is getting

324
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 4: injured here. He obviously has had a better year than

325
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 4: he had last year. He was putting in an uncomfortable

326
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 4: position as a point guard last year fifteen eight and three.

327
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 4: The numbers were there. Sometimes still looks a little clunky

328
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 4: with him and Wheb Minyama. But this is not good

329
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 4: for the Spurs year. I don't know if you guys

330
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 4: have anything to add to Sohan. I'm gonna miss a

331
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 4: couple weeks at least.

332
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 2: It's unfortunately because he's a bit of a blue guy.

333
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: Since we're talking about blue guys. He gets after it

334
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 2: on the other team's very good defensive player, offensive players,

335
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 2: because he plays great defense. That's all stinky. It's stinky.

336
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: This no warm on the inside. The Spurs have been

337
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: better with so Hand off the court this season and

338
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: last season. They want to see what he grows into

339
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: as a player. He definitely has been better this year.

340
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: But it's crazy to see a guy going up and

341
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: shooting free throws one handed, Like that's wild to me.

342
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: He'll still be able to do that. It's his left hand,

343
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: so it don't keep the free throw percentage up. But

344
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 1: I don't know that this is a huge absence for

345
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: the Spurs. They would rather have their guy out there.

346
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: But maybe this means more minutes. First the Poncastle, who's

347
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: probably more so locked in long term with the team.

348
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 1: Devin vesselback as well, like they're getting banged up. Chris

349
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: Paul is looking old but getting the team more in order.

350
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: So yeah, the Spurs, this is maybe good for their draft.

351
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 4: All right, let's hit the beach.

352
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 1: We got that shaft down, all right.

353
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 4: We're going to be treating your emails in tweets steep

354
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 4: in common. No dumbs at the Athletic dot Com tweet

355
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 4: have been at no dunk sink. Leave them in the

356
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 4: YouTube comments. I got the first one here for you guys.

357
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 2: Uh.

358
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 4: There's something I've noticed following the league oh so many years,

359
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 4: and it's the overrating of role players on teams in

360
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 4: the premier cities like New York LA and more recently

361
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 4: San Francisco slash Golden State. There are many examples recently

362
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 4: of refusing to include these minor players in trades, like

363
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 4: Terrence Man for the Clippers, or Quinton Grimes for the Knicks,

364
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 4: or Taylor Horton Tucker for the Lakers. Sean Hiken has

365
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 4: dubbed this prominence for such players as the prestige Zone.

366
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 4: Do you have a favorite example of such a player

367
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 4: or a specific trade for such a player or a

368
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 4: prestige zone? Starting five? Been listening since the No Season

369
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 4: Required Tour. Keep it up, gents. That is from Jamal.

370
00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 4: It's a fun question, Thanks Jamal. The Prestige Zone, Sehi

371
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 4: has named it such.

372
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 1: Yeah.

373
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 2: I guess Taylen Horton Tucker was in the prestige zone.

374
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, because the Raptors tried to get him over

375
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 2: and over and over again. A couple of times. They said,

376
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 2: you want Kyle Lowry for him, Nah, not gonna do it.

377
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 2: The game a first round pick and Ken Burch as

378
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 2: an offer, na, not gonna happen. They tried, they tried,

379
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 2: it didn't work out. I love seeing role players on

380
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 2: championship teams and then them getting an offer somewhere else

381
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 2: where we all get to see how good is this player?

382
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 2: Will he be deemed like a just just an OK player,

383
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 2: like you know, going way back, your You're Luke Longley's,

384
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 2: your Judd Buschler's. Are they going to be good somewhere else?

385
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 2: Like Kntavi's Coboll Pope. Even before he won the championship,

386
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 2: he got that Laker deal and people set up overpaid,

387
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 2: not good enough, and then he won a championship with them,

388
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 2: and then he did it again with Denver. So it's

389
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 2: fun to see him with Orlando, and you know, on

390
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 2: those Denver nugets. I was interested to see Bruce Brown

391
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: go get twenty million dollars with the Indiana Pacers and

392
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 2: go to Throne Raptors. Hasn't really worked out all that well.

393
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,880
Speaker 2: So those guys are my face. Like Gabe Vincent, even

394
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 2: in that finals, I know everybody gets after me because

395
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 2: I say I love Gabe Vincent. He goes to the

396
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 2: Lakers last year, I do, I do. He was injured

397
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 2: last year. I'm blaming it on that he played eleven

398
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 2: games last year. Yeah, he's not back.

399
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 4: He almost had the Tony Snell. I saw the graphic

400
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 4: going around the other day. He's not steel in like

401
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 4: whatever minutes he played.

402
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, shooting thirty percent from the floor three of ten shots,

403
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 2: that's not good enough. Twenty percent from nineteen actually from

404
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 2: three point land it's not good enough. But he's going

405
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 2: to stay on that floor. JJ Reddan is gonna run

406
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 2: him out there as their backup guard. So I have

407
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 2: faith in Jae Vincent decent. Being decent, that's all he

408
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 2: has to be. I mean, he's he's a backup role player,

409
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 2: but he got hurt after being good. So that's the thing.

410
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 2: It just it depends obviously on the team that they

411
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 2: end up on. I got I'm with Gabe. I'm with

412
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 2: Gabe on this one.

413
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 4: Game. Uh, do you have any Prestigie zone guys, And again,

414
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 4: this is like you're really focusing on the big markets

415
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 4: like New York LA. I think, I think it is

416
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 4: a big part of it was what Jamal was writing about.

417
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 4: But go other teams.

418
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: For me, I look at this and I see players

419
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 1: who are kept out of trades because their team thinks

420
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 1: they're going to be good, yes, and then they don't

421
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: really end up doing anything. And there's two names that

422
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: come to mind. For me instantly. Twenty ten's number one

423
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: JJ Hickson with the Cleveland Cavaliers. They would not trade

424
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 1: him for Amari Stodemeier during twenty ten when Lebron was there. Instead,

425
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 1: they end up getting Antoine Jamison. Lebron bounced went to

426
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 1: Miami the next summer. The other one, also from twenty ten,

427
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 1: Rodrik Bobo. I have him in my notes as well,

428
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 1: could you not? Oh good? Mark Cuban called him pretty

429
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: much untouchable.

430
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 4: Yep.

431
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: And then two years later he's like, he is still

432
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,199
Speaker 1: in our long term plans. And then two years later

433
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 1: he was gone. Yeah, that's right.

434
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 4: That's why I was.

435
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: Shocked to see that it was Tim McMahon who was

436
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: writing up those articles on eSPI. I he been there

437
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: a lot that long.

438
00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 4: I read the exact same article in doing a little

439
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 4: recent job.

440
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 2: Yeah he was.

441
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 4: He had one sick game, literally one good game, ever

442
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 4: as a fantastic one. I actually was like, holy crap,

443
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 4: world too. I looked it up.

444
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:14,640
Speaker 1: I think he's thirty six years old.

445
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 2: That's it, Red Greek Will McMahon.

446
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 4: No, man's older, but man, he's only thirty what that's wild?

447
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 4: He played like four years right in the League.

448
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: It was a short career, one contract.

449
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll go a couple of current guys though in

450
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 4: San Francisco with the Golden State Warriors. They could be

451
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 4: They could be Pojemski, Kaminga, maybe we even throw a

452
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 4: Moody in there. We don't know, Like they could turn

453
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 4: into the guys that you keep and want and turn

454
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 4: into like, you know, sort of not superstars but obviously

455
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 4: borderline all star guys or stuff like that. Or they

456
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 4: could be perfect examples of Prestige Zone guys here. Yes,

457
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 4: it's it's TBD, but I think I think I feel

458
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 4: confident like one of those three will be if we

459
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 4: got this question ten years from now, we would be

460
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 4: bringing them up. That's what I'm good, all of them,

461
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 4: no one one of the three.

462
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess Pajemski is most likely to stick with

463
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 1: the Warriors, it seems yeah, But yeah, it does seem

464
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: like Kuminga is a guy that they've kept out of

465
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 1: trades where it's like it would would have gotten it done,

466
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 1: and then they didn't send him to an extension. That's

467
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 1: kind of weird. If you wanted to make a Prestige

468
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,719
Speaker 1: Zone starting five, I think you could do it probably

469
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 1: with all New York Knicks. I'm just thinking off the

470
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 1: top of my head, Guys that Knicks fans fall in

471
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 1: love with in the last two months of the season,

472
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: swear they're good, like Alonso Treer, Toure Murray uh Trey

473
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,160
Speaker 1: Burke had a nice movement with the Knicks there, Chris Copeland.

474
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: I'm just going off the top of my head. Who

475
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 1: else do we got in a last last few games

476
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 1: for the next I mean, honestly, Quentin Grimes might fall

477
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 1: into that category as well. Yeah, where you're like, wow,

478
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 1: you had a couple of good beets for the nixt

479
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: We're going to be a star going forward, and rarely

480
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 1: is that the case.

481
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 4: The prestige zone, it's powerful prestige zone.

482
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, the prestige in the big markets. It helps because

483
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 2: people start writing article was about Nicks a lot of

484
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,400
Speaker 2: the tree or you know that kind of thing for sure.

485
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 4: So they're just like they're they're loyal and loud fan

486
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 4: bases too, So it's like it feels like you're seeing

487
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 4: more tweets about you know, Miles McBride. Maybe you should

488
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 4: be because it's a huge you know, obviously population and

489
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 4: fan base and the Knicks are. You know, they're crazy

490
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 4: fans in a good way and sometimes maybe a bad way.

491
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 4: But that's why it's the LA teams in New York

492
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 4: for sure, and then maybe even Golden State. Yeah.

493
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: I always thought it was a There was a funny

494
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 1: meme going around like circa twenty twelve. It's like DJ

495
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 1: Benga has a publicist, Like who DJ Bank on the

496
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: fourteenth man on the Lakers? He's got a publicist. But yeah,

497
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: that's how it is. Got to feel those calls. What's

498
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: DJ up to? Oh he's just chilling right now, working

499
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,159
Speaker 1: on his game. We'll see if buying them goes down

500
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: with an injury, he'll play a few minutes. A lot

501
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: of people don't know this, Tasses gave Vincent's publicist.

502
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been doing for you. Want any questions about.

503
00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:58,520

Speaker 2: Yeah, I love fake a Vincent period. Next one, Dear

506
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 2: No Dunks. After watching Starting five on Netflix, I started

507
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 2: thinking about who I'd want in a new lineup. My

508
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 2: picks Jalen Brown, Nikola Jokic, Wemby, Halliburn, and Zion. They'd

509
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 2: be fascinating to watch on and off the court. Who

510
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 2: would you want to see Also, if you could choose

511
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 2: any player from history for a similar show, who would

512
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 2: it be. Personally, I'd love to see j R. Smith

513
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 2: during his nixt days. Those behind the scenes stories would

514
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 2: be something. Thanks for being a calming presence, especially now

515
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 2: as my mom recovers from a difficult hip surgery. You

516
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 2: guys are the best Boston Celtics fan in Denver, Charlie

517
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 2: b So.

518
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 4: Charlie Bee is getting two of these guys?

519
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: Is he not?

520
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 4: In the next starting five? Haliburton and Jalen Brown? Yep,

521
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 4: so there you go when Charlie sent this in. But

522
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 4: that's good for you, Charlie, you got two of your

523
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 4: five picks there. I want a weird starting five, okay,

524
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 4: because I want like just either super quirky guys or like,

525
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 4: you know, sarcastically funny or just like strange. Be honest,

526
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 4: my weird starting five. I want to follow Ognanobi so

527
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 4: I find him hilarious, but you know, he's not really

528
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 4: trying to be funny.

529
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 1: It feels like a lot of the time, but he's

530
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 1: just an odd cat.

531
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 4: Uh Mo Wagner. I think would just be a weird follow.

532
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,959
Speaker 4: I'll get the brother relationship with him and Franz too.

533
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 4: Luke Cornett seems funny, and Steven Adams is a no brainer,

534
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 4: gotta have him on the show. And then I just

535
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 4: went with Jose Alvarado just for I don't know. He

536
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 4: seems like a cool guy, like a fun guy. He'd

537
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 4: be doing weird things. I feel like, so og Mo Wagner,

538
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 4: Luke Cornett, Steven Adams, and Jose Alvarado. I'm not watching

539
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:36,159
Speaker 4: this anyway, So.

540
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 1: It's the last season five casts. Yeah, superstars. Yeah, here's

541
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 1: some other guys. Yeah that's right, that's right.

542
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 4: But that's where I went with forward you go Pickleman.

543
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 1: Jokich is an interesting one to me because people say

544
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: that's yeah, I loves basketball, but he says I don't

545
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: love basketball. But the guy's an MVP, so clearly he does. Uh.

546
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 1: I would be more interested to see, though, a Jokic

547
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 1: off season show, like what's it like when you go

548
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 1: back to I ever see you dancing on tables, go

549
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: into the horse track? What all's going on over there?

550
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 2: I'd love to see that.

551
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: I'd love to see a Josh Hart one just to

552
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: see how much these knicks actually are hanging out on

553
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 1: the side, and for like a historical guy. Carmelo Anthony

554
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: would be high on the list for me during his

555
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 1: tenure with the Knicks, when he was like becoming a businessman.

556
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: I want to see his meetings. I want to see

557
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: him go hat shopping. Yeah, he got everybody into wine.

558
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: Apparently got everybody in the wine. Like, there's that great

559
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: photo of him going to the bodega and like a bathrobe.

560
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: Mellow was just a beloved dude in New York City.

561
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: It would be cool to see like a superstar walking

562
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: around New York City seeing how much love he's actually getting.

563
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 4: How about like doing an entire season of starting five

564
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 4: on players that do podcasts and see how much work

565
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:47,880
Speaker 4: they actually put into.

566
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 2: It just watching them sitting a computer. Yeah, wow, this

567
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 2: is an interesting shot we have, Like we.

568
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 4: Could put gil Mellow if we want.

569
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: He's got his own show and podcast.

570
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's obviously tons to pick from. Who puts the

571
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 4: most working, who's grinding tape?

572
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: Yeah? Who's producing? Yeah right right, who's sending the docks? Yeah?

573
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 4: That would be Gilbert Arenas is ever after a show

574
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 4: gone to Josiah.

575
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 1: Hey, I'll start the Google doc for tomorrow. I'll start

576
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,600

577
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 1: all right, get your picks in.

578
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,879
Speaker 2: Who knows, literally could be the most boring show in

579
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 2: the history of Made for Us, though we would love it.

580
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:32,199
Speaker 1: We talk about it more than anybody.

581
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting because you know, he brought up j R. Smith.

582
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 2: It's all about the production. How much are they showing

583
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 2: of j R. Smith? And I watched j R. Smith

584
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 2: become a golf player. He had a series on Amazon

585
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 2: in North Carolina Anti. It was good. A lot of

586
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 2: it was at his computer, sort of like he's making

587
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 2: a podcast. He's just sitting there. But it was good.

588
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 2: But yes, there's Once I started thinking of players like, yes,

589
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 2: Steven Adams, easy, Hey, what are you doing? Steven was

590
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 2: eating my breucky mate, you know like that. They were

591
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 2: just it would just be funny enough. It would just

592
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 2: he would just period be funny. It's all about the production.

593
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 2: And I started thinking of teams, like I started going

594
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 2: to championship teams that you're going to follow for a year.

595
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 2: I thought the twenty ten Lakers would be ridiculously good,

596
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 2: Like if it was Kobe and Powe showing you their

597
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 2: relationship after Kobe ran through Powe's chest in the Olympics,

598
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 2: like that connection run our test, praising his psychiatrist after

599
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 2: the finals. I would love to be a fly, a

600
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 2: fly on the wall during his meetings with psychiatrists. I mean,

601
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 2: it goes on and on with lamar Odoms, the things

602
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,959
Speaker 2: he was going through. Shannon Brown was with Monica. Monica

603
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 2: can come on an episode. Let's just sing a song

604
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 2: for us, please, Monica.

605
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:42,960
Speaker 1: She can't make.

606
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: Yep, she's totally yeah. She missed her appointment with the

607
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 2: starters once upon a time, andrew him Luke Walton. Maybe

608
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,959
Speaker 2: we could have met with Bill Walton then. I mean,

609
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 2: that's that's that's a stacked team of personnality, not not

610
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 2: DJ Beinka.

611
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

612
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

613
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,360
Speaker 1: I took over as his publicist, trying to get as

614
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 1: many mentions on a podcast as possible.

615
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 4: You know what, though, your idea about following Yokich like

616
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 4: during a summer, there's something there that I especially with

617
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 4: all these like international superstars in today's game, that would

618
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,160
Speaker 4: be sort of cool if you like, Okay, we follow

619
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 4: Luca for a summer, we follow Yokic for a summer,

620
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 4: you know, we go to Hamilton with SGA. I don't know.

621
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 4: I don't think it goes back to Hamilton. But the

622
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 4: point is, like, I like that idea Steven Adams, even

623
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:34,119
Speaker 4: if he's back and stuff like that.

624
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: Kevin Branton, that Devin Booker, what was it like when

625
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: you were on that boat doing the slides? I would

626
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: love to see that.

627
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that was a good photo to see Devin

628
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 2: Booker in the Olympics where you just jumped on that

629
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 2: bike and just left the party that he was at. Yes,

630
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 2: well you might.

631
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: You might see all that. Aren't we getting an Olympics? Yeah?

632
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, documentary We are in the next summer coming down.

633
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 2: But you're right, summers are way more just there's way

634
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 2: more personality for players quite often, but you see you

635
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 2: see them as themselves, right, like Adam. I went back

636
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 2: and checked that twenty ten Lakers championship roster. Adam Morrison

637
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 2: was on that team. I don't know how fun he'd

638
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 2: be during the season, but in the summer you get

639
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 2: more of him playing video games and stuff. That would

640
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 2: be cool.

641
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 4: Next one here, this is from anders in Norway. When

642
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 4: Kat hits a three in MSG, the announcer must say

643
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 4: three point goal, Carl and Tonny.

644
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 1: To make it sound like Carmelo. Can we make this happen?

645
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 4: Do we like this idea from Anders? So go ahead?

646
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 2: Yeah? So you don't want him to say towns? I know,

647
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 2: I guess not, but it'd be funny enough to hear

648
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 2: the announcers say Carl and Tony towns.

649
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, that'd be good.

650
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's good enough.

651
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 4: Maybe not all the time, but every once in a while.

652
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 4: Keep people on their toes. Not a bad idea, and

653
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 4: that's good.

654
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 2: It is a good one.

655
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 4: See, they don't have to be questioned sometimes they can

656
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 4: just be suggestions. Here when we get on the beach.

657
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: Can we make this happen? Unlikely? I don't think we can.

658
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 1: But we can't. Probably do it, but who knows.

659
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 4: But we like it.

660
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 1: We like Mike Walzuski. That's the guy, nick pa guy.

661
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 4: Okay, do we know if he's on social media?

662
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 1: He's on Facebook?

663
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 4: Do we know he's publicist?

664
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 2: Is that old? Exactly? Exactly?

665
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: Yeah? Somebody poke them? Okay, next we'll try.

666
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 4: We'll try.

667
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 2: Next one. Prairi request sending photos of my TV antenna. Yeah,

668
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 2: we talked about TV antas a little while back. I

669
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 2: feel like Rudy Gobert right now. But it is very

670
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 2: simple and no bunny ears required. Just a small box

671
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 2: that stays hidden, turn up, switch source, enjoy the games

672
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 2: from Clara h. And we have these photos if you're

673
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 2: watching on YouTube. It's literally just a box.

674
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 4: It's like an iPad just stuck behind your TV.

675
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. It's just just sitting there, just

676
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 2: squeezed in perfectly. It's just totally flat. It does look

677
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 2: like an iPad. And she shows the TV from the

678
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 2: front can.

679
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 4: Antennaka no, yeah, I was going a little overboard when

680
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 4: I was getting upset about the bunny ears, and then

681
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 4: a lot of people did say, look, they don't even

682
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 4: look like that anymore. You don't need to see them skeets. Relax.

683
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 1: You just got to get this thing, plug it in. No,

684
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 1: I think you still got to switch that source you.

685
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 4: That's right.

686
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: I've got a buddy who now has gotten antended up

687
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 1: thanks to the bulls, and his antenna is eight feet

688
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 1: away from his television monitor on the wall, elevated off

689
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: the floor with a quarter running over see no way,

690
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 1: Oh yes, just to get it positioned in the right

691
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: way to get reception. Yeah, to get the reception, oh boy.

692
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 2: But it has nothing to do with the remote the

693
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 2: source can be changed at any time.

694
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: I think he has full functionality with regards to sources.

695
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: He might even have two HDMI inputs because that one's

696
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: straight cod.

697
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 4: I have a crazier, right, have a craze. You pay

698
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 4: the NBA like a monthly fee, maybe even a year

699
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 4: leafy to watch your team or hell all the games.

700
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 1: Crazy. It'll never work. Amazing, man, crap, that'd be awesome.

701
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 1: It will literally never work.

702
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 2: No, yeah, it doesn't really Sometimes you get blocked out.

703
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 4: Good to see the that we've had some you know,

704
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 4: technical technological advancements.

705
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: Though with antenna's antenna's are back squares. It's like, I

706
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: don't even feel right. I don't even feel right.

707
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 4: Calling that an antenna. That's the weird part.

708
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 1: It's got to be longer.

709
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 2: And I agree, longer.

710
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: That's the best conductor.

711
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 2: We all know it.

712
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 4: How did Adam Silver not say it's got to be silver?

713
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: You think that'd be the one.

714
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 4: Thing he would be like demand from our antennas. But

715
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 4: all right, thank you, uh Clara there for sending those

716
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 4: photos in all right. Next one longtime fan, first time

717
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 4: in years, d em Or. I'm not sure if it's

718
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 4: been pitched before, but I'm thinking it would be cool

719
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 4: if free throws were like coaches challenge. If you miss

720
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,479
Speaker 4: the first, you don't get a second. If you hit

721
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 4: the first, you get a second. With three point fouls

722
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 4: you get one miss thoughts. That's from Harley from Melbourne, Australia.

723
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 4: Uh he is saying what they do in college one

724
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 4: on one basically, yeah, okay, okay. Do we like this

725
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 4: idea of one and one in the NBA.

726
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 2: I know that you do because we watched the G

727
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 2: League and you see them, Well, they take one free

728
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 2: throw and set up two. They just take one. You

729
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 2: get two points for a may free throw or zero.

730
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 2: Love it because it's faster.

731
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, No one wants to watch free throws besides lels.

732
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 1: I thought everybody from Melbourne loves but I guess not

733
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: not every.

734
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 4: Good point.

735
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:45,959
Speaker 1: I love the G League rule. It'd be great. It's

736
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 1: a great way to speed up the game. One for two.

737
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: I mean, one and one is cool, exists in basketball.

738
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: I agree, but the G League would speed up the game.

739
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: We'll be seeing under two hours.

740
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 2: On that l I do, but I don't know about

741
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 2: one shot being worth two points. That part's a little weird.

742
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 2: Make one you get a second.

743
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 4: I like that, you like, you like, and I like,

744
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 4: so what Harley is saying here, missed the first one.

745
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 2: It's like, all right, rebound game on, and yeah, well yeah,

746
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 2: Harley says, with three point fouls, you get one miss.

747
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 4: So right, so you step up to the line. Okay,

748
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 4: you got fouled on the three point shots the line.

749
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 4: You missed the first one, but it's okay, you and

750
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 4: Theory still have two attempts. If you hit the second one,

751
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 4: that's what he's saying. He's saying. If you then missed

752
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 4: the second one, you miss two of those three, it's

753
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 4: a sorry, that's what he's said.

754
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,800
Speaker 2: Not getting that third You crazy, Harley, Yeah, you crazy

755
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:36,440
Speaker 2: for this one hard.

756
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 4: It just gets a little more difficult to track all

757
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 4: of it. But I like the g lege rule. I

758
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 4: think they should try it, implement it. Just give them

759
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 4: two points for a miss for a hit free throw.

760
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 4: It's actually that you're you're more incentivized to obviously not

761
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 4: even foul, try to avoid fouling guys, right if sometimes

762
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 4: you foul to like, well, wrap that guy up. Yeah,

763
00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 4: sixty free throw shooting. Wow, I don't know, I don't

764
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,240
Speaker 4: know it actually works on that because.

765
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,240
Speaker 1: You got the one shot.

766
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,800
Speaker 2: Uh. Anyway, I don't know if you get reduced the

767
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 2: free the fouls. I don't know. Why wouldn't you want

768
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 2: to send the guy to the free throw line take

769
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 2: one shot. He's not a good shooter. Ye, we'll shoot

770
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:16,839
Speaker 2: the one.

771
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 1: Okay, we'll get rid of all the bad free throw shooters.

772
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 4: Okay, the good thing.

773
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 2: That's it. You're out of here.

774
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 1: There I go.

775
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 2: Next one, dear, no donkey bunch. I was thinking about

776
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 2: Laura fitting tray into a tiny home, and it got

777
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 2: me wondering which Tetris piece each of y'all are. Test

778
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 2: is obviously a t the most ferstile, but also most unpredictable.

779
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,719
Speaker 2: And JD is probably an oh aka the square piece,

780
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 2: just the standard square piece, since he's the most block

781
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,879
Speaker 2: solid and steady. Okay, at first I thought Skeets, wasn't

782
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 2: I maybe that's esh. Who do you think each tetrama? No,

783
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 2: that's how you pronounce it. That's what each piece is

784
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:57,760
Speaker 2: called tetrama.

785
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 4: No, that's a Tetris piece every.

786
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 2: Sides. Okay. That's from Chief in Somerville, mass obviously. So

787
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 2: if you're watching on you t YouTube, here are the

788
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 2: tetrominos these letters assigned.

789
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,360
Speaker 1: I didn't know the square piece was called to know.

790
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,439
Speaker 1: That's news to me. I didn't know they had letter

791
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 1: designations at all. I would have called it square stick

792
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 1: squiggly for sure.

793
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 4: So there's seven pieces, and uh, you know, maybe we're

794
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 4: continuing to blow your mind. They're all four pieces of

795
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 4: blocks too.

796
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 1: Did you know that this isn't the most I've ever

797
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 1: learned about tetris? Yeah, previously, just how to play it.

798
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 4: I think there's a show on Tetris, isn't there? Didn't

799
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 4: they make a show a documentary or something.

800
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 1: I can't Uh, how is Trey not the eye?

801
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 2: I'm the eye? You're the eye.

802
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 1: Knows I'm the eye.

803
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:56,399
Speaker 4: You're the eye, dude, Like I'm I'm skinny, but you're

804
00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 4: actually pretty scary much taller, So yeah, you're the Yeah.

805
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 1: For me, it came down to I was either going

806
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 1: to be the I or the L or the J.

807
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 1: But the L and the J have big feet, so yeah,

808
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:09,320
Speaker 1: gotta be the I.

809
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:11,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I could see the L if you deem

810
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 2: them to be small feet because they're one block, but

811
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:16,320
Speaker 2: I don't know if that works.

812
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 4: How do you feel about being a t it feels.

813
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 2: Like I got a real short body, you know, if

814
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:27,320
Speaker 2: you look at it if yeah, just because it's a

815
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 2: one block body.

816
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 4: But he was not even looking at the He was

817
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 4: not He was giving a personality to versatile, unpredictable.

818
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 2: Well, I'm looking at them right now.

819
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: To me like I love the T. Isn't the T

820
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:39,720
Speaker 1: He's a good piece.

821
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 4: I feel like the S and the Z are the

822
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 4: one that gets you in trouble? Yeah?

823
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you see them pop up on the top.

824
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 1: Why T.

825
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 2: I guess the T is versatile maybe in that it

826
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 2: looks like a T, but when you flip it over,

827
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 2: like the S and Z, they're just flipped pieces.

828
00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 1: You know.

829
00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 2: Does T have a name? When you stick that one

830
00:37:59,600 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 2: on top?

831
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,800
Speaker 1: I'm really wondering and j d uh is it a

832
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: compliment to be called blocks solid? No? I didn't think

833
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:16,400
Speaker 1: so block solid, bro. Yeah, how would you designate the

834
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 1: pieces to the five of us?

835
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:18,839
Speaker 4: Here?

836
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:19,439
Speaker 2: At no dunks?

837
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 1: I feel like tass is Z Yeah, okay, I don't

838
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:24,839
Speaker 1: know why.

839
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 2: It is just sort of screaming out to me.

840
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 5: Maybe because half the people in the world call them taz.

841
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 5: I agree that tray is the I. Okay, you know

842
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:37,800
Speaker 5: Skeates is the S and I would be the J.

843
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:44,800
Speaker 5: I would think, you know, but yeah, I don't know.

844
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 2: I'll take the O. Fine, Fine, I don't think that's

845
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:48,800
Speaker 2: an insult.

846
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 4: All right, thanks, You're never upset to see the L

875
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 1: my top five pickles. They are They're very lenient with

876
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 1: the definition of pickles. At number five is the Gurkin

877
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: Wow delicious, delicious, bumpy and the most fun name to

878

879
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:42,280
Speaker 1: delicious on a nacho. Though, I gotta say it's unfortunate

880
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,839
Speaker 1: what's happened to the breeding stock with halopene. I agree,

881
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: they're breeding them to be bigger and sweeter. It's taken

882
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,759
Speaker 1: away some of the spice from our halopennos. But still

883
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: I love them. You are you are right? You are right.

00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 1: That's right? Yeah, good ones though, even a bad halopain.

888
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:05,800
Speaker 1: I'm not mad at it. I like I like that

Speaker 1: That's what you think of when you think of pickles.

926

Speaker 1: Not my favorite pickle, but undeniably the King I.

927
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 4: And I don't even like.

928
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,279
Speaker 1: I don't like them, like we've talked about before, when

929
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: we give them.

930
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 4: To him before eating a meal and there's pickles on

931
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 4: beside your sandwich, like they all go to him.

932
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,879
Speaker 2: What a level of respect. You don't even love them,

933
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:22,440
Speaker 2: but you put them at number.

934
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 1: So good. They are known as the pickle. And think

935
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 1: about how many forms they come in. Giant pickle you

936
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 1: ever see, like you go to a deli, just a

937
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: huge glass container filled with the biggest pickles you've ever seen.

938
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 1: People order those, yeah and eat them. You're crazy. That

939
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:40,439
Speaker 1: seems like too big of a thing to be taken

940
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 1: a bite out of, Like imagine a pickle the size

941
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 1: of our microphones, just chomping. My kids did swim team

942
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:52,280
Speaker 1: this year. The concession stand sold giant Dill pickles wrapped

943
00:43:53,160 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: in alumini who the cool Pool pickles, And they were successful.

944
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,880
Speaker 1: They're selling out every time. I guess they're refreshing. They

945
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 1: are refreshing. The crispness. Yeah, coolness. The crunch is the

946
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:11,840
Speaker 1: main thing when it comes to pickles.

947
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:13,399
Speaker 4: If you ask me, you're right, you had to put

948
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,399
Speaker 4: a number one because like it sometimes feel like it's

949
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:17,520
Speaker 4: really the only pickle.

950
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 1: You made a case for all these other ones.

951
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:21,760
Speaker 4: But like, I don't know, this is like family feud.

952
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 4: Ask a hundred people to name a pickle, Like I

953
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 4: swear to God, like it's gonna be ninety five percent

954
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 4: of people. I assume we're gonna say Dill pickle. Right,

955
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 4: I bet you're right, Like maybe even higher.

956
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:37,000
Speaker 2: Maybe a hundred. It would be very close.

957
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,040
Speaker 4: So it has to be number one.

958
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they make things that taste like deal pickle,

959
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,480
Speaker 2: there's deal pickle potato chips. Yes, that's how good it is.

960
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:47,880
Speaker 1: Do you like those because you love deal people?

961
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're good. Yeah, that's there.

962
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,200
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's like I'll eat them, but like

963
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,480
Speaker 1: they go through waves, like I'll.

964
00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 4: Eat them for a bit and then I'm like, I

965
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 4: don't ever want these again, and then couple of years later,

966
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,239
Speaker 4: dill pickles will come back into my life.

967
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:03,200
Speaker 1: Very odd.

968
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 2: They're a little tangy.

969
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,479

973
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,320

1013
00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:05,840
