As 40 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 5: he said, still got some skin of the game, little 41 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 5: little shaky. 42 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: Now. 43 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 5: I don't want to date this podcast too much, but 44 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 5: it does look like Garland Mobley and DeAndre Hunter are 45 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 5: unlikely to play tonight. 46 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 3: So that's good. 47 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're we're recording this. That's good. 48 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 1: And that's we're recording this before game two. That feels 49 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: bad to me. 50 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 5: But you never know, right, Like Donovan, Mitchell is certainly 51 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 5: capable of putting the team on his back. The team 52 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 5: found ways to win last season with Garland and Mobley out. 53 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 5: So maybe this is a Donovan Mitchell and Jared Allen masterclass. 54 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 5: You know, get the series to one one, have a 55 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 5: couple of days off before Game five or not game five, 56 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 5: but before Friday's game, and then just kind of take 57 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 5: it from there. 58 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, Look, look he's good for seventy points, 59 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 3: you know, every now and then scored. 60 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: Hey, if you scored seventy one, you can score seventy 61 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: or sixty eight, you know, why not? 62 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 3: Why? 63 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 1: Oh man, that's a bummer if they're all three out anyways, Yeah, 64 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: we'll get to that later. I guess not as much 65 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: as a bummer is not having your team in the postseason, 66 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: although it is. I wouldn't know anything about that. Miles, 67 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: Well you did. You have always said it is nice 68 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: to watch as a neutral. And then Jabiri and I 69 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: we you welcomed us into the light. 70 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 3: Oh, I get like, I guess. 71 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: Well, let's just run everything down that happened after last 72 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: week's episode. Obviously, the Wolves just put the Lakers too bad. 73 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: Julius Randall absolutely haunted us. That's totally fine, but yeah, 74 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: we will see. Look, now, the next part of what 75 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: could be happening because now the Wolves will be playing 76 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: the Warriors. But now the next phase for us Lakers 77 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: fans we are unwell is for us to begin living 78 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: in a fantasy world where we might sign some other 79 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: dynastic talent to pair with Luka, Doncic. 80 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 3: Or Lebron or one of them goes and we cash 81 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 3: out Austin Reeves for maybe Janni's I don't know. 82 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: That's just some Reeves for Yanna's. Straight up. That feels 83 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: it feels fair. Another weird trade like that. 84 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 2: They're like what they what are they doing? 85 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 3: Just were there any picks or anything? 86 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:14,119 Speaker 2: Nah? 87 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: Straight trade, straight swap reeves for Gianni's. But yeah, Also, 88 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: then Anthony. 89 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 3: Edwards did a victory lap around Crypto after that game. 90 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: That was the best thing I've seen in the NBA 91 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 2: this year. 92 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 1: I look, I was even saying, like some of my 93 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,799 Speaker 1: other Laker fans, I'm like, I'm not mad. I actually 94 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 1: love Anthony. He's like one of those guys I love. 95 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: I just hate playing him. But even when he goes 96 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: and literally dances on our grave after the elimination, even 97 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: the fans. 98 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 3: Were like, what's up? And he's like, wait, y'all aren't mad? 99 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 4: At he was confused. He was like, what, oh, hey, no, you. 100 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 3: Guys were talking all this trash. Okay, well, great, good 101 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 3: to see. 102 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: It revealed that his favorite movies Matilda again still because 103 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: he had revealed that in a like pre draft interview, 104 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: and then he was talking about how the good guys 105 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 1: die in this one was what you send the Lakers fans. 106 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: He's like, oh, you guys thought you were gonna come back. 107 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: Now the good guys die in this one. You're gonna 108 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,799 Speaker 1: be like Morris Chestnutt. He was like, oh, his Boys 109 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: in the Hood your favorite movie, and he's like, nah, what, no, man, Matilda. 110 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 5: Well, it's it's important to re establish that, right, like, 111 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 5: because you know, these are still formative years. You're talking 112 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 5: about your early twenties, and age can change, right your 113 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 5: your opinion can change. He's still standing strong with Matilda, 114 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 5: and Matilda is very important for us to know. 115 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: Will that be a moment when he discovers a new 116 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: film and it's like, it's no longer Matilda. 117 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 3: Actually, I mean he's. 118 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: Seen Doc Saints, he's seen Boys in the Hood, so 119 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: he's seen other more grown up movies. I like that 120 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: because that the early twenties is when a lot of 121 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: people are just trying to seem smart with their film choices, 122 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: and you know, like Jaws was always my favorite movie, 123 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: but I had to I had to start dabbling with like, 124 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: you know, foreign films and ship to try and act 125 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: like I was better than I actually was. 126 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 3: But did you also embrace Donny Darko? 127 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 2: Did you have a Donnie Darko? For sure? 128 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 1: Many everything I know about physics I learned from Donnie Darko. 129 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 5: I really hope that his review of all these movies 130 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 5: are it kind of gives off a Matilda vibe, Like. 131 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: You know what. 132 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: I just saw Meg gotta say big Matilda vibes. A 133 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: couple is a Matilda fan. I guess I'm not the 134 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: only Matilda fan, but yeah, I don't know it was. 135 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: There's a story about my grandfather who used to be 136 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: a basketball coach, and there's a book written about his 137 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: team called The Breaks of the Game, And at one 138 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: point it's revealed that he would after a loss just 139 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: like go walking the streets around the arena looking to 140 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: fight someone, Which is I was good at therapy back then, 141 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: yet exactly that was men would rather do this than 142 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: knock around therapy was had been invented. His name is 143 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: Jack Ramsey, doctor Jack. He was an intense man, very 144 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: very lovely man by the time I got to meet him, 145 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: but very very intense basketball coach and uh and yeah, 146 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: this was like the joyful version of that. He was 147 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: just like, I mean, it could have gone a lot 148 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: of different directions. 149 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 2: He was looking for. Thank god, Yeah, thank god. 150 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: La r is a city of uh, you know, celebrity 151 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: worship where they were like. 152 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's aunt Hey, can I flick it up? 153 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: But also I think just the way as fans we 154 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: looked at the series, We're like. 155 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 2: Man if Anthony Edwards did. 156 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 3: This to us, now, I think we looked at it 157 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 3: as like, you. 158 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 2: Guys were right, you guys were right. 159 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 5: It probably helped that it didn't go like seven games too, 160 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 5: because you know, the emotions are are raw when when 161 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 5: it goes that far into a series. The fact that 162 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 5: you know, kind of wrapped up in a tidy manner 163 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 5: there and exactly as Lebron said, he wasn't able to 164 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 5: play if the series continued anyway, so the thing. 165 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 3: Was over one way or another. 166 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it would have gone a little bit different 167 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: if there would have been some rhetoric. 168 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 2: If JJ Reddick was. 169 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: Walk out walking the streets, I feel like, you know, 170 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: it might it might not have been as popular. And 171 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: I think again, I think probably also half the Lakers 172 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,239 Speaker 1: fans like and one day, Anthony, you will be playing 173 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: for us. Well, this is just a recruiting visit. He 174 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: thought he was going out there. They knew a hostile 175 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 1: fan base. Everyone knew how to fan base as Lakers 176 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: fans all know. 177 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 3: Fan base right there. 178 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 5: You know whether it's doing, whether it's the honest, whether 179 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 5: it's whoever. You know, you can't rule it out, especially 180 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 5: some Luca thing. 181 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 2: I know. 182 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: That's why I joke after every every room wor I've 183 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: just been now saying oh, come home, come home, because. 184 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 2: It's because you said that about Luca last year. 185 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 4: And look, guys, it's all about manifesting. 186 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: And you're not joking when you say it. By the way, 187 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 1: as a Lakers fan, you're not your only half. Yeah yeah, yeah, no, 188 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I'm saying could say it, and it's 189 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: it's absurd. My desire, My desire is sincere. I am 190 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: joking in that I think it's attainable, But in a 191 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: way it is attainable if I can even express the desire, 192 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: and that's what all manifesting is about, you know. 193 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 3: What I mean. 194 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Giannis, by the way, has announced that if 195 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: you ask for a trade, it's going to be to 196 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 1: New York, LA or Miami. And I can't imagine anyone 197 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 1: really making sense because I mean, who's going to look 198 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: at the Clippers and be like, yep, that's where I 199 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: want to be. That team that had the better team 200 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: this like what the second best team in the West 201 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: heading in the playoffs and couldn't make it out of 202 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: the first round. That's that's the type of team that 203 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 1: I want to be a part of. The NETS. I 204 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: feel like everybody includes the netsay is like, well, they've 205 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: got the most assets, they make the most sense. But 206 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: I feel like after the KD yeah tenure there, Like 207 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: I just I feel like it's going to be hard 208 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: to get people on board. I feel like it's the 209 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: Knicks or the Lakers if those were the heat I guess, 210 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: but also like that they don't look great either. 211 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 3: We can offer you one, Austin Reeves. 212 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, like the Lakers don't make sense. 213 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 3: We have nothing. 214 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Knicks I'm trying to figure out, like I 215 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: feel like the Knicks also gave away all their picks, 216 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: so I don't know who it's. 217 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 2: Going to be. Maybe he just stays in Milwaukee. 218 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll see.

It's what's the what the food do? 243 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 244 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 3: Elsewhere, the Warriors, uh yeah, I mean they. 245 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 2: Took out the bluddy heeled game. 246 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 3: Wow. 247 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: The Rockets straight up face guard, double team staph the 248 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: whole game. Like it was like it was like the 249 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: thing you see in like middle school when a player 250 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: is like really good and they're just like, all right, 251 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: everybody guard him the whole way. 252 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 2: We're just gonna put the whole around him. 253 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: And uh, I think it probably would have worked if 254 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: Gary Payton Junior wasn't hurt, but he was. I think 255 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: he was out and Buddy Heald was playing, and Buddy 256 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: Heald can shoot really well when he's not in a 257 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 1: sixers uniform, and uh yeah, shout out to him for 258 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:18,959 Speaker 1: stepping up in a big moment. But I mean they 259 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: were they were just like, Steph's not going to beat us? 260 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: Who is And it was like I guess buddy, Buddy, yeah, yeah. 261 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: Thirty three points nine threes. Unbelievable unbelievable game. Did not 262 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: see that one coming. I thought the Rockets had a 263 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: shot in that series. They obviously did, but they probably 264 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: need to make a move. Although I don't love them 265 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: for Giannis either, because they just like again like the 266 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: no shooting no you know, so we're just going to 267 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: keep doubling down on no shooting and hope the league 268 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: changes it. Just might you know, going to be that 269 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: one contrarian that that really changed is at all? 270 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 2: Okay? 271 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: So maybe should we get take a break and then 272 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: come back and actually discuss the teams that are playing currently. 273 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's do us do that. 274 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 3: We'll be right back and we are back. 275 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: So we did, I think, I mean, we alluded to 276 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: the fact that why would you want to play for 277 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: the Clippers, but that's because Denver took care of them. 278 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 3: In Game seven. 279 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: I went to a bar in LA because I was like, 280 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: you know what, let's see how this goes. I was 281 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 1: so disappointed that I left, just like so early in 282 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: the third I mean maybe middle of the third quarter 283 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 1: was not really a competitive game, but now we've got 284 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: the Nuggets and Thunder and that game one was frightening. 285 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: I thought, I really did. I was kind of like, oh, well, 286 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: look at the Nuggets and now that game, that game 287 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: one that was really coming back from what was it 288 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 1: down fourteen was. 289 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,839 Speaker 3: Really really impressive. And yeah, I'm I'm I think I 290 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 3: think that I was a premium. 291 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: It was premature for me to completely write off the 292 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: Nuggets at least on the back of that win. Yeah, 293 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: they're tough part of a champion. I'm officially never picking 294 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: the Clippers to win a playoff series. Again, that's just 295 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: where where I'm at. I always make fun of ESPN 296 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: for being, you know, putting up the stats where it's like, 297 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: in the history of this franchise, they're you know, seventy 298 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 1: three and eighty one against you know, when trailing by 299 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: two games, and it's like, what that doesn't mean anything, 300 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: except with the Clippers, the Clippers, it does mean something, 301 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: because Yeah, that's that's what I should have I should 302 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: have paid attention to the fact that they're the Clippers, 303 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: and I should have paid attention to the fact that 304 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: they have. 305 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 5: James Harden Clippers ones and Doc Rivers ones are very 306 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 5: important to Yeah, those ones definitely. 307 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, Doc Rivers is no like that is for some 308 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: of those stats about like you know, records like coming 309 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: back having other teams come back against them from three 310 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: to one down, and it's like he had like half 311 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: of the six two thousand NBA teams are nine to 312 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: forty three and nineteen in the playoffs when leading by 313 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: seven plus points with under thirty five seconds left. Doc 314 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: Rivers is thirty four and seventeen in these situations. So 315 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: that means he has seventeen of the nineteen losses in this. 316 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 3: That. 317 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: I don't think that's right. I think that's I think 318 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: that's a fake stat. But there were there were some 319 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: real I don't I don't think that's possibly right, but 320 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: there were some. 321 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 3: Real three Yeah, I look, I have to believe it. 322 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: I have at this point because these are all it's 323 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: the confirmation bias. 324 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 3: But yeah, the yeah Nuggets, Wow you. 325 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: Got our final four in the East, our final four 326 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: in the West. Man as somebody who is Celtics, you know, 327 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: cheering for the field versus the Celtics, anybody but the Celtics, 328 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: I feel even though they lost Game one, I feel 329 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: worse because I think they lost game one. I think 330 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: this is as good as it gets for you know, 331 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: Knicks fans or Celtics haters, because I just don't think 332 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: the Celtics are going to miss all their threes. I 333 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: don't think they're going to miss a record setting number 334 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: of threes again and again and again. And you know, 335 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: the team that it has the best chance at beating 336 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: them as of right now, again we're recording this before 337 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: Game two, but are down one with three of their 338 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: best through their you know four five through their five 339 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: best offensive players injured or you. 340 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 2: Know out that just does it. I don't know. 341 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I will say the Pacers are giving me 342 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: a little bit of hope. The Pacers are tough as hell, 343 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: Like they look awesome. 344 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, they play basketball, man, like you know that Game 345 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 5: one loss obviously, no Garland hurt and game kind of 346 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 5: changed a little bit in the fourth quarter when when 347 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 5: Mobilei got hurt and then Hunter as well. But like 348 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 5: they came out, they were more prepared than the Calves. 349 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 5: They got terrific shock quality. I thought the perimeter defense 350 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 5: was great. You know, they got killed on the inside 351 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 5: a little bit, and I think that's going to be 352 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 5: one of those things that you know, we in a 353 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 5: series against Boston, you'll you'll have to figure out, hey, 354 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 5: can can they defend both the paint and the three 355 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 5: point line or is it really going to be a 356 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 5: one or the other. But that's that's a really good team, man, 357 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 5: Like I think there was a reason they were the 358 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 5: best playoff offense last year, and you know they'll probably 359 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 5: be more equipped to challenge Boston this year than they 360 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 5: were last year. 361 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'm also not giving up on your calves, 362 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: are you? 363 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 3: I'm not either. I'm not either. 364 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 5: You know, obviously shorthanded tonight, no Garland, Mobley or Hunter, 365 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 5: but you know they just, in my eyes, you just 366 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 5: got to win the one game, right, Like Darius Garland 367 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 5: dealing with what Brian Windhors described as turf toe, you know, 368 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 5: trying to make it back early if they can just 369 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 5: buy him a little bit more time. He's been trying 370 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 5: to give it a go, trying to battle through that. 371 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 5: In practice, it just hasn't been you know, responding. Well, 372 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 5: maybe he can be available for Friday. DeAndre Hunter dislocated 373 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 5: thumb on his shooting hand, and Evan Mobley didn't apparently 374 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 5: wasn't able to put weight on his ankle or on 375 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,400 Speaker 5: his ankle all sound. 376 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 4: Bad, Yeah, on your shooting hand, it's like. 377 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, not not not ideal. But you know, maybe some 378 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 5: of those start to turn around it and at least 379 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 5: get to the place where you know, you can play 380 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 5: through it. But when you're playing against the team that 381 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 5: moves the ball like Indiana, that plays at the highest pace, 382 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 5: if you're a shifting guard like Darius Garland, playing with 383 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 5: turf toe is probably not going to help you, you know, 384 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 5: on either end of the floor. It's gonna you know, 385 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 5: prevent you from planting and whatnot. So they just got to, 386 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 5: you know, find a way to get this one game. 387 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 5: It will be interesting to see, you know, what approach 388 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 5: they take. But I definitely feel like trying to once 389 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 5: again win that possession battle is going to be a 390 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 5: big part of it. And for some shooting regression because 391 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 5: they shot like crap on their looks and Indy shot, 392 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,400 Speaker 5: you know, had their best shooting the end of the year. 393 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 5: They're probably hoping for a little bit of that swing, 394 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 5: similar to what Boston's hoping for against the Knicks. 395 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, the last two seasons, I feel like 396 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 1: we've seen you guys have some pretty different lineups due 397 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: to injury and stuff like that and managing through that. 398 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: But whose absence are you most concerned about? Going forward 399 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: of everybody that you're. 400 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 3: Like, oh boy, this is gonna make it a real 401 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 3: tall order. 402 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 5: God probably mobile, just because you know, not being able 403 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 5: to put weight on your ankle is concerning. And he's 404 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 5: the anchor of the defense, right Like he's that guy 405 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 5: that's that release valve when teams pressure the guards. He's 406 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 5: the one that provides that front court initiation. So it's 407 00:19:55,960 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 5: not just the defensive thing, it's offensive as well. But 408 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 5: the tough thing is you're missing your most impactful offensive 409 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 5: and defensive player. Mitchell is their best score. He's their 410 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 5: best you know, he's their best player. He's that guy 411 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 5: that you trust in closing situations. If you look at 412 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 5: the last three years, like Darius, is the difference between 413 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 5: them being great offensively and not. This year, they had 414 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 5: the best offense in NBA history with Garland on the court. 415 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 5: In the minutes where Garland was out there without Mitchell, 416 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 5: it actually even got better. When Garland's off the court, 417 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 5: they have the thirteen best offense. You look two years 418 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 5: ago when Mitchell first came there, they had a top 419 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 5: five offense with Garland on the court, twenty ninth with 420 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 5: him off. Last year when he wasn't himself. They didn't 421 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 5: manage to have a top ten offense. So when you're 422 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 5: playing against the team as good as Indiana offensively, you're 423 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 5: going to have to find other ways to win, right, 424 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 5: rather than your strength, which had been offense all season. 425 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 5: So I'm probably most concerned about Mobiley. But you know, 426 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 5: this is about as tough of a blow as you 427 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 5: can have in the playoffs. 428 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: Is Garland? What was going on with Garland last year? 429 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: Was was there like a lingering injury or do we know. 430 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 5: Garland broke his jaw, He had a wired shot for 431 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 5: six weeks, I wasn't able to eat, was drinking through 432 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 5: a straw, he had a death in the family. 433 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 3: To as he got out of that situation, it seems. 434 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 2: Just like a bad year. 435 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, you really really tough year. 436 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I think he lost like seventeen eighteen 437 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 5: pounds and you just aren't going to regain that in 438 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 5: you know, in the middle of a regular season. 439 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:30,199 Speaker 3: Yeah. 440 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: Well, I think we're all pulling for the Calves to 441 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: even this up, make it, make it a really good series, 442 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: which we think it can. It's interesting the Calves, well, 443 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: I think went into the series as the favorites and 444 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: now the Pacers even heading into Game two after that 445 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 1: Game one or the favorites probably having you to do 446 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: with injuries. Boston lost Game one at home and are 447 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: still the favorites against the Knicks. I will, I do 448 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: just want to because I kind of brushed past it 449 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: pretty quickly and was like, the as good as it's 450 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: gonna get. 451 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:02,719 Speaker 2: What a glorious game one. 452 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: I think the Knicks for giving it to us, It 453 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: did give me a little glimmer of hope, just a 454 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: little tiny is Boston not quite where they were last 455 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 1: year because obviously Tatum was just not shooting well last night, 456 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: but Boston, like my whole hope with Boston has always 457 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: been Tatum doesn't have that like down the stretch, super 458 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: clutch energy to him, Like he just like hasn't always 459 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 1: done as well as you want your leader to do 460 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 1: in those situations. Last year, they won it, but they 461 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: won it because Brown was that guy, Like Brown stepped 462 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,640 Speaker 1: in and was playing out of his mind and he 463 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 1: you know, won the finals MVP. And so this year 464 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 1: I think all the Celtics fans are talking a lot 465 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: about like Tatum's actually stepped up, He's that dude now. 466 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: But they're like those moments where you're still like, I 467 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: don't know is he like and and if he's not 468 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: and Brown is not playing out of his mind like 469 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: he did last year, then you have to rely on 470 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: like Derek White and Holiday and it's just a it's 471 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 1: a little it's a little different. It's a little harder 472 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: to see where they're gonna like get all the like 473 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: big buckets they need down the stretch against whoever they 474 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: end up playing against. It again, I don't know that 475 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: it's the next but they're they're giving me a little 476 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: bit of hope. 477 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 5: I think whoever comes out of the West is going 478 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 5: to win, Honestly, do you really? 479 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 3: Yeah? 480 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 5: I just think this isn't as good of a Boston 481 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 5: team as it was last year. You know, Drew Holiday's 482 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 5: taking a bit of a step backwards. Ingis doesn't look 483 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 5: like himself either. You know, I still probably think it's 484 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 5: going to be okay. See, but I just feel like 485 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 5: whoever's coming out on the West is probably going to 486 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 5: be the champion this season. 487 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 2: That uh so, who do you like? 488 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 3: Wolves? 489 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: Warriors? 490 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: Because the Warriors definitely showed me something in Game seven, 491 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: But man, the Wolves just look strong. 492 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's going to be the tough Ye. Yeah, 493 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:03,919 Speaker 3: I think it's going to be the Wolves. 494 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 5: You know, Warriors do have that experience advantage, right, Like 495 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 5: there is so much championship in NBA Finals experience when 496 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 5: you talk about those top guys. But I just feel 497 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 5: like the Wolves are a more complete team. I think 498 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 5: they were able to, you know, overcome some demons and 499 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 5: have a lot of confidence taking down Lebron and Luca 500 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 5: and layoffs are all about momentum, and I feel like 501 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 5: they have a lot of momentum there, whereas what the 502 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 5: Warriors went through against Houston, Like, yes, they did a 503 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 5: great job in Game seven, but that that's that's a 504 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 5: very tough series against a team that's very, very inexperienced. 505 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 2: And very limited. 506 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:41,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 507 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 5: I think the Wolves are ready to take that next 508 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 5: step and are going to be in the conference finals again. 509 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 510 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: They're just hearing like the narratives like with Ant like 511 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: wanting to play Luca, like a Luca team again, and 512 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:54,879 Speaker 1: then he's like I want Draymond, like I want to 513 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:55,679 Speaker 1: play I want. 514 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 3: To play the Warriors. There's just the excitement on that 515 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 3: side of him. It makes me feel like, yeah, I. 516 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: Don't I don't know what they how they'll counter all 517 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: of that, but just with like the Knicks though, I'm 518 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: I just love this. I just love the rivalry between 519 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: Boston and New York fans, and that's giving me another 520 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: layer that I'm really really enjoying this. But I think, 521 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 1: like to your point, Jack, like Tatum was so cold 522 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: in the second half, like until like maybe like that 523 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: towards the end of the third quarter, like he hit 524 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: a three and then hit a couple more, but like 525 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: to your point, like every now and then, like Derek 526 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: White would bail them out or Drew Holliday with like 527 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 1: a random three that they were just able to sort 528 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: of stay in it, but it just wasn't really enough 529 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 1: to get over. I'm I'm hoping that this is still 530 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: a possibility for New York, but I also see like 531 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: this can also be one of those things for a 532 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: team that's just one they need like a smack in 533 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: the mouth really quick and then they're like, Okay, yeah, 534 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 1: let's that this is an anomalous let's let's just let's 535 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: just do what we came here to do.
