64
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: you think? How did you think he looked?

65
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 2: Man?

66
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 3: He looked great tonight, Ocho. He got off to a

67
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 3: great start. You know that first quarter. He had sixteen

68
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 3: in the first quarter, o Cho, I said, oh, yeah,

69
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 3: he gotta go. He he when he started hitting you

70
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 3: with that little walk out there, look out, yeah, yeah,

71
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 3: you know what time it is. You know what time

72
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 3: it is. So I knew he was gonna be in

73
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 3: for a great night. And I think he understands the

74
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 3: moment too, man, knowing that you know, Luca's out. Yeah,

75
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 3: he can go out there and get twenty five thirty

76
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 3: on Ocho, but to be able to get tennisists with that,

77
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 3: I think, uh, he knows that that's that's definitely needed

78
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 3: for that team to keep other guys involved so they

79
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 3: can just stay afloat to Luca getting back. And I

80
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 3: mean it's the game to close out the All Star break. Bro,

81
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 3: he knew how important this was just to have that

82
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 3: winning morale, you know, going into All Star Break on

83
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 3: a winning note, knowing that this second half of the season.

84
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 3: It's gonna make it break you right here.

85
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: Twelve assists and ten rebounds, along with twenty eight points

86
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: ten or twenty from the floor. He didn't shoot the

87
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,479
Speaker 1: three ball well. Although he got off to a great

88
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: starter of shooting the three ball. He missed his last

89
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: I think he missed his last five attempts on the

90
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 1: three ball.

91
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 2: But I thought he played well.

92
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: He knows, like you said, Joe, he knows Luca's out

93
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,919
Speaker 1: and Austin Reeves is on the minutes restriction, so he

94
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: had to play well. I thought Ruy played really well.

95
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: Also hit some big shots. They swung the ball like

96
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: some nice catching shoots. But he also was able to

97
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: put the ball on the floor. Now he'll get to

98
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: put the ball on the floor and get to that

99
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 1: mid range and pull up from there.

100
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 2: But I thought the overall they played well.

101
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: Look, the Mavericks are very under man They've traded Ad

102
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 1: Cooper Flag is out with a mid foot spring and

103
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: so clearly they're rebuilding. They're gonna center everything around Cooper

104
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,840
Speaker 1: Flag moving for and it says you know what, you know,

105
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 1: they played hard. I mean I wish, I wish the

106
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: Lakers could have kept Max Christy. I really like Max Christy,

107
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: but hey, it is what it is. But this team

108
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 1: right now, they're not gonna really compete. They might as well,

109
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: you know, don't do that. Don't do what Utah is doing.

110
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: And some of these other teams are doing trying to

111
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: tank because this is a pretty solid draft coming up.

112
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 2: Oh, Joe, you see Lebron do what he does, and Joe,

113
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:23,119
Speaker 2: you know the problem.

114
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: The thing is is that when you've been great as

115
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: Lebron has, people don't factor in that the man is

116
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 1: forty one. We just oh, Joe, you know this with Tom?

117
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: This how I work with Tom. I don't care he

118
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: forty two. I don't care he's forty three. He's Tom Brady.

119
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: And I want to see four hundred four touchdowns and

120
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,280
Speaker 1: no interceptions. And when you great, this is the level

121
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: of expectations that people have for you. It's kind of

122
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: like your kids, no matter how old they get. I'm like,

123
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: y'all thirty got kids of your own, y'all still expect

124
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: your Christmas gifts.

125
00:05:52,279 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 2: Damn fang so but this was this look middle to it.

126
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,039
Speaker 1: I mean, Joe, they don't they don't have they're gonna this.

127
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: I think this team Maverick is gonna look very different

128
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: next year.

129
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 2: I really do. Oh yeah, yeah, they're gonna look different.

130
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, we just it's unfortunate because we never

131
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 3: seen you know, obviously what Nico Harrison was trying to

132
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 3: put together there in Dallas, and that was Kyrie and

133
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 3: a d playing together Cooper fo Yeah, with Cooper Flag.

134
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 3: You know, it's just without Kyrie, man, I'm gonna keep

135
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 3: it real. No, none of this work, you know what

136
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 3: I mean, You just you just you just need him

137
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 3: at the helm, you know, controlling things obviously him being

138
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 3: a prolific score that he is.

139
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 2: But they just they missed so much. Bro.

140
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 3: It's just Yes, it's a tough time now for Dallas,

141
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 3: so I expect that, you know, the Lakers to kind

142
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 3: of blow this thing up to night.

143
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

144
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: When you look at you look at Kyrie. He's a

145
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: guy that can get his own shot. He's a three

146
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: level scorer. He's the best under six foot of wil

147
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: with all of us, He's the best finisher at his

148
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:00,159
Speaker 1: sides in NBA here.

149
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 2: Street nobody can fins. Now.

150
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he is above the rim, but the

151
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: english that he can put on the ball right left,

152
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: and people don't realize Kyrie does everything with his left

153
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 1: hand except you the basketball with that being saved.

154
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 2: I mean he's phenomenal. I mean, you can get the

155
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 2: three ball off.

156
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: We saw that in the NBA Final when he hit

157
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: the biggest shot of his career in the NBA Finals.

158
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 2: We know he can get to the mid range.

159
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: And when it comes to putting the ball on the

160
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: floor and pat in the rock and finishing at the rim, he's.

161
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 2: Second to none.

162
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: And he doesn't take a back seat to anybody. So

163
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: he's special in that aspect. And I think him and

164
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: Cooper flag in the pick and roll. I would have

165
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: loved to see Cooper flag, Ad and Kyrie, but unfortunately

166
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: we never got an opportunity to see that materialized. We

167
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: didn't get a whole lot of opportunity to see Kyrie

168
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: and Ad because as soon as as soon as Ad

169
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: got there growing and then shortly after that, Kyrie ends

170
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,239
Speaker 1: up tearing his ACL. So we never, like you said, Joe,

171
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: what Nico probably envisioned for this team, it never got

172
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: an opportunity to materialize because both of the guys that

173
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: he was counting on ended up getting hurt.

174
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 4: You want to now I was gonna say, I really

175
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 4: enjoyed a nice game, obviously the Lakers playing against a

176
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 4: depleted as depleted MAVs team. But it's also talked to

177
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 4: the greatness of Lebron James, that he doesn't get enough credit.

178
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 4: A lot of people chastised him despite what he accomplished

179
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 4: throughout his career, being in his twenty second twenty second

180
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 4: to twenty third, being in his twenty third year, and

181
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 4: seeing him evolve over the years, and seeing how he

182
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 4: played the night, obviously Luca being out and Lebron, whether

183
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 4: whether he has to play on the ball or off

184
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 4: the ball, and being able to do some of the

185
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 4: things he did tonight, obviously setting the tone for the

186
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 4: Lakers very early in the game, you know, and getting

187
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 4: those shots and getting everybody else and getting everybody else

188
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 4: gone as the game went on, him being able to

189
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 4: transition and playing on both ends of the court. I mean,

190
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,719
Speaker 4: it looked hell, he looked like Lebron that were used

191
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 4: to seeing. So it sucks for the MAVs and the

192
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,719
Speaker 4: situations that they're in, obviously with Rees, but seeing seeing that,

193
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 4: seeing the Lakers stay afloat in the absence of Luca,

194
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's pretty cool. But again, they were

195
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 4: playing the MAVs team that is completed, and they really

196
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 4: not a full strength, not not even close for that matter.

197
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 2: No, hey, look, Joe, we can't help it. They on

198
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 2: the schedule.

199
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 3: This is where they got playing this a a hey, hey,

200
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 3: we ain't got nothing to do with it. He look,

201
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 3: ain't nothing better than that when you go into a team.

202
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they got about four five people here. Oh yeah,

203
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 3: we gotta get us all to night, Joe.

204
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 4: So so, even as a player, knowing that their team

205
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 4: is depleted the way it is, do you still count

206
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 4: that as a win, knowing that everybody's hurt.

207
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we're gonna kick you when you're down, man,

208
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 3: We're trying to get it done.

209
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 2: Broncos didn't have bow knicks. Uh huh.

210
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: You think the patients felt sorry for the Broncos didn't

211
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: have bow knicks. No, exactly.

212
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, didn't feel sorry for y'all.

213
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 1: When Carson went down in the first the first drive

214
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: of the game, they didn't like, Oh man, you know what, man,

215
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: hey Carson out of the game. Man, come on, mant

216
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: fist bumping like you No, no, yeah.

217
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 4: I mean I understand, but you know, just ay.

218
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 3: O, Joe, when you see that on the schedule, you

219
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 3: see you see they depleted the way like the MAVs are.

220
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 3: If you the Lakers, you penciled, you.

221
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 4: Already got it checked off.

222
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

223
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 3: If I like Broun, say, going into the break, you

224
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:28,719
Speaker 3: see how he came out.

225
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 2: He came out with it on your mind. He wasn't playing.

226
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, he got straight the team like that that you

227
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: just make sure you make sure you don't let off

228
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,479
Speaker 1: the gas and let them nip you. Because that that's

229
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 1: that's the frustrating point part part excuse me, is that

230
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 1: you know they're they're nicked up, they're banged up, and

231
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 1: then you take them lightly. No, you killing that with

232
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: a sledgehammer. You make sure so you do what you're

233
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: supposed to do to those that that team. So like

234
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: Joe saying, I don't feel no, sorry, man, we ain't

235
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 1: have our best player and y'all put somebody out there, right,

236
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: So so he didn't get his ass to it, but

237
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: the mother left them got their ass toe up.

238
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 2: For sure.

239
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 3: But show that's say, look, that's what guys be thinking.

240
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 3: Man when you going to games and you see the

241
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 3: injury report or you see that this team being nicked

242
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 3: up for a while. Oh yeah, we got the maths

243
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 3: in the night. Yeah, we got to go and get

244
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 3: them up out of Joe. It's not like Rebember he

245
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 3: called somebody this at the beginning. Is that they would

246
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 3: literally try to get your best player out the game,

247
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 3: which is the quarterback will knock your lass out the game.

248
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 2: We greatly increase our chances to win it.

249
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:37,719
Speaker 1: So right, I had damn man, I feel bad for

250
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: y'all quarterback.

251
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 2: I just said that, bro, I don't right.

252
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,319
Speaker 3: And but looking basketball in BASKETBALLO, you know, sometime it

253
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 3: can backfire you too, because they got guys that's playing

254
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 3: and then they start having these out of body experiences.

255
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 3: You're like, he wasn't even on the scot report. I

256
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 3: mean you look up, this man got twenty seven. Yeah,

257
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 3: so it can backfiure you at times too.

258
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: Now, yeah, I think the thing is when you look

259
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: at Lebron sometimes Joe that's a blessing and a curse

260
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: is that he get off to that hot start and

261
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,559
Speaker 1: then he'll fall in love with the three. Because you

262
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: remember he hit that first three and then he came

263
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,199
Speaker 1: back down he checked it, and I was like damn

264
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: in transitional blessing and a curse because he will he will.

265
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 1: I got to see if I got it to night,

266
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: so I gotta take at least one to two more

267
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: from about twenty eight to twenty nine, just to see

268
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: if I'm still good. But the fact that he was

269
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: getting everybody, that was getting people involved, he probably should

270
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: have had a few more assists because Jackson Hayes let

271
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: one go out of his bounds, he had a wide

272
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 1: open dunk. Ruin let one bounce off his knee, So

273
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: he had a couple that he probably should have had

274
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 1: about fourteen to fifteen assis.

275
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 2: But I thought overall they played, they played pretty well.

276
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 1: Marcus mart could not buy basket the night he was

277
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: four fourteen, but he but he normally plays really well.

278
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: I mean, his defense is what he's known for. He's

279
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: the four defensive player of the Year. But he just couldn't.

280
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,560
Speaker 1: He just couldn't make a shot tonight. Joe, Nah, he

281
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: normally you know what it is oo. He normally a

282
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 1: game change.

283
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 3: I know he's been starting lately, but normally when he

284
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 3: comes off the bench, he's good at gauging what the

285
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 3: game needs, right, like if they're down, he know how

286
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 3: to muck it up a little bit, make the game

287
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 3: a little ugly, and you know what I mean, some way,

288
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 3: somehow trying, you know, get the Lakers the momentum to

289
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 3: kind of get things going. But he's been shooting the

290
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 3: three ball all well. I think tonight, you know, it

291
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 3: was just one of these nights, one for nine from three.

292
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 3: He just couldn't buy when he finally made one that

293
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 3: second half. But man, listen, he a dude who can

294
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 3: play on my team in any day. Ocho, you need

295
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 3: fighty guys like that, Bro, you need guys like that

296
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 3: on your squad. Yeah, I mean he's gonna make it

297
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 3: on the ball. He's a defensive guy. Yeah, try to

298
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 3: take some pressure off the guy. He normally tries to

299
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 3: guard the.

300
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: Best team's wing player, hopefully normally if that's a point,

301
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,960
Speaker 1: is not, you know, even though he try to guard KD.

302
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 1: I mean, they don't have a whole lot of great defenders.

303
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 1: I mean, when you really look at this team, the Lakers,

304
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: they got smart and they got a listen, Vando, that's it.

305
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 1: Jackson Hayes is a rem protector. He's not a great

306
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: on ball defender, and you know, yeah, he can help

307
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: weak size. He's not a king, he's not big Wallace,

308
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: He's not but tumbo guys like that that can defend

309
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: their position. He's a great help defender. He got great

310
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: leaping ability. But they really have two own ball defenders.

311
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: They probably need another guy. Unfortunately they weren't able to

312
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: get one at the trade deadline, which makes it really

313
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 1: because your three best players aren't defenders that Lebron can't

314
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: defend anymore.

315
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 2: He can defend for a possession or two.

316
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: But to ask a forty one year old to still

317
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: be able to defend at the level that he could

318
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: in his twenties, you're asking a bit much. Hey, Luca,

319
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: it just it is what it is. He gonna give

320
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: you thirty to forty, but his guy might have twenty

321
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: five to thirty. Austin reeves, Hey, he tries, but hey,

322
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 1: it is what it And yeah, I don't even want

323
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: to talk about d A.

324
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 3: I just man, listen, look yo, cho in basketball, man,

325
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 3: if you cannot guard that first dribble, if you getting

326
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 3: beat off the first dribble to first move, we can't

327
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 3: get help there fast enough because every play we're gonna

328
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 3: be in the huckle Buck. They're gonna be penetrating the paint,

329
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 3: kickout for three throwing lives, So we're gonna have to

330
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 3: pick our poison.

331
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 2: That's when I.

332
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 3: See what the Lakers bro. They getting beaten off the

333
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 3: first dribble. You can't do nothing about that. The whole

334
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 3: defense weaken. Yeah, it kills you. It breaks your whole

335
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 3: defense down because now you let penetration in the teeth

336
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 3: of your defense, and now you're exposed because you got layups,

337
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 3: you got lobs, you got kickout for.

338
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 2: Threes, ay Joe.

339
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 4: And that's the same conversation we've been having over the

340
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 4: years when it comes to the Lakers obviously has obviously

341
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 4: having so much offensive power, but being a liability defensively. Yes,

342
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 4: I mean, at some point it all come down and

343
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 4: you got to hustle. You got to want to at

344
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 4: least a pick and choose, pick and choose your times

345
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 4: when the play goddamn defense. But if you always get

346
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 4: beat especially off the goddamn first dribble, I mean, I

347
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 4: don't care how many points you score if the other

348
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 4: team scoring just as many.

349
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 3: Yeah you hey, look, that's why in the playoffs, an Ojo,

350
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 3: the Lakers don't need to see the timber Wolves or

351
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 3: the Thunder. They don't need to see them type of

352
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 3: teams you need, I don't know how, Like you probably

353
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 3: rather play against Denver, but you don't want you don't

354
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 3: want them teams that got them dudes that go off

355
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 3: the bounce like that.

356
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 2: It just can't. It's too much costs too much, Bro,

357
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 2: They give up too many points.

358
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: Even though the Lakers, if you look at their record

359
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 1: and clutch time right now, Joe, they're probably one of

360
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: your better teams than clutch time. By the game within

361
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: five points the last five minutes of the ball game,

362
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: that's what clutch means.

363
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 2: They're probably one of the better teams.

364
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: But come postseason, when you get beat off the dribble

365
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: like that in clutch situation, guys are gonna get getting

366
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: white layups. They don't get wide open shots. And you

367
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: can because you want to make it as difficult as

368
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 1: you possibly can. Well, if you can't guard anybody off

369
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 1: the first dribble and I got to come help.

370
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 2: Now, I've weakened my defense.

371
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 1: And so that's the problem that they have is that, Yeah,

372
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: like I said, the regular season is one thing. The

373
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 1: postseason is something entirely, entirely different. So they have success

374
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 1: in the regular season and think that carries over it,

375
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 1: but no team's weekend.

376
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 2: And that's what OKAC. They were great in the clutch situation.

377
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, because their game plan for OKC is to weigh

378
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 3: you down. Okay, yeah, you may get a couple appetizing shots,

379
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 3: but we want this tempo and we know Ojo at

380
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 3: the end of the game, under five minutes in crunch time,

381
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,439
Speaker 3: we know you're gonna be dead. Leg got that, man,

382
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 3: you ain't gonna be able to get too much. We're

383
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,920
Speaker 3: gonna be still like we in the first quarter.

384
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

385
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 1: And when one of your three best players is Lebron

386
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: at forty one, played the second most game, the most

387
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,120
Speaker 1: minutes in NBA history, he can't get up and down

388
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 1: like he once could. That's not Austin Reeves, and and

389
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: and and and and and uh Luca. They're not speed merchants.

390
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 1: So the one thing that you don't want to get

391
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 1: get into it with these teams is attract meet. You're

392
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: a distance runner and you're trying to sprint. Now, it

393
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:21,360
Speaker 1: ain't gonna work.

394
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 2: Bro.

395
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: Every once in a while you might have a guy,

396
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you had a guy that could run the

397
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,360
Speaker 1: mile or the half mile. He was on your mile

398
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: relay team, but he was really really special. That ain't

399
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 1: what the Laga have. Lega got a lot of distance runners,

400
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: so they getting last. You're just putting them out there

401
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: with you to get some points. Hey, that's how I coach, Coach,

402
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: all get out there, coach, I ain't even ran, I

403
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: ain't ran the eight hundred dollars year. Don't worry about it.

404
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: You get last, but that's a point.

405
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 2: WHOA, wow, what you mean? I was you already do?

406
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 2: But that's a point, right man.

407
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 1: Nicola Nicolas Topic made his NBA debut four months after

408
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: battling testicular cancer. The Serbian garb was the twelfth pick

409
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty four NBA draft. He missed all

410
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 1: of last season with a torn a c L he

411
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 1: suffered before the draft, and then he received testicular cancer

412
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: diagnosis during the preseason. He had a procedure in October,

413
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: then underwent chemo and worked his way back into shape.

414
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,719
Speaker 1: He entered Thursday night game against the Milwaukee Bucks late

415
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 1: in the first quarter and received a loud ovation. That's

416
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: really one of the blessings O Joe and Joe, you

417
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: guys know this is that player of professional sports. Because

418

419
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: batter of they find out.

Speaker 2: Everything, every everything, they find everything. They find out.

Speaker 1: they find out you have you know, you know, certain

423
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 1: certain ailments that pro probably probably a lot of times

424
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 1: the general population, it goes undetective until it's too late.

425
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 2: So congratulations to the young man that he got treated.

426
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: I mean, he's had had a tough time of it,

427
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 1: tears his acl he battles his way back from that,

428
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: and then coming back into the preseason.

429
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, by the way, you have testicular cancer.

430
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 3: I've seen that too, man. I've seen him getting the game.

Speaker 2: Man. That was dope to see on cho.

434
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 3: passed away twenty nineteen from cancer.

435
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you know that's that's a you know, that's

436
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:37,239
Speaker 2: a tough battle. Bro.

437
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 3: I watched her take this battle for probably over a decade,

438

442
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: My father died. My father died from it at thirty

443
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: nine from cancer. He had two brothers that barely made it.

Speaker 4: you hit, when you hit a certain age, it's very

469
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,760

473
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 4: especially if it runs in your family, because it does,

474
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 4: it does get passed down, you know, you know, through

475
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 4: through the generations, especially if if if you had others

Speaker 2: Man.

561
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 5: You know, it took me, you know, three four years

562
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 5: to get back to this point, and to do it

563
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,959
Speaker 5: with this group man, the way we love each other,

564
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 5: the way we we fight for each other each and

565
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 5: every day. Man, it definitely was different because I, you know,

566
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 5: I understand the you know, the the struggle and how

567
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 5: hard it takes to get back to that point.

568
00:26:55,760 --> 00:27:03,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, O Jo Joe, Hey, look, you won a Super Bowl,

569
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 3: you know, with two different teams. Bro, tell me, tell

570
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 3: us what's like, what's the mindset in preparation that separates

571
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,640
Speaker 3: you know, championship teams from you know, I probably would

572
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 3: say just regularly.

573
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the biggest thing. I think it's the mindset. Like, man,

574
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 5: we went into that game, like, you know, we weren't

575
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 5: gonna be denied. We were coming out of that game

576
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,919
Speaker 5: with something and it had it was something we were

577
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 5: coming out there would win. And mentality on you know,

578
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 5: all sides of the ball was just that. And I

579
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 5: think that's what separates you know, the teams that you

580
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 5: know get the job done versus those that you know

581
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 5: don't make it all the way.

582
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, ej.

583
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 4: After watching that game and the way you guys dominated defense,

584
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 4: obviously having a Moniker for your defense now called the

585
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 4: Dark Side that is reminiscent of that of the Legion

586
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 4: of Boom. Did you know you would dominate the game

587
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 4: in this way, in fashion the way you guys did.

588
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 2: Uh?

589
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, man, I mean we we we were watching it,

590
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 5: you know, watching the film for the you know, two weeks.

591
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:03,360
Speaker 2: Man.

592
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 5: We were like, man, ain't no way you give Mike

593
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 5: McDonald two weeks. But not only that, we're watching the

594
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,159
Speaker 5: film and we're like, man, we've seen it all. What

595
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 5: is this team gonna do against us? And you can

596
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,640
Speaker 5: tell from on film that we're we're a different group,

597
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 5: but when we get in front of you is much different.

598
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,440
Speaker 5: It's real life at that point. So I knew we

599
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 5: would come out there and dominate.

600
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,200

622
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 2: to you. Okay, EJ, what do we need to do? Okay,

623
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 2: we win the championship game?

624
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: What do we need to do between the time we

625
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: win the championship game leading up to the to the

626
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 1: Super Bowl to the actual Super Bowl game?

627
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 2: So what type of advice were you able to give them? Man?

628
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 5: Honestly, for me, you know it was it was a

629
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 5: lot different being in LA because our super Bowl was home.

630
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 5: Everything we did, you know, was at home. Media Day,

631
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 5: you know, everything was at home. So I just told him,

632
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 5: you know, get ready to enjoy the experience. But ultimately, man,

633
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 5: when it comes down to when it's time for us

634
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 5: to go go to practice or go to meetings, Man,

635
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 5: let's be locked in. We came here ultimately to win

636
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 5: the you know, win this game, win us a super Bowl,

637
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 5: and that's what we're gonna do. So that's that was

638
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 5: mainly my advice.

639
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 2: What do you do now?

640
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 4: You got the trophy, you got the ring, coming all

641
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 4: seasons here? Obviously your all season is starting a little

642
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 4: bit later than others that didn't make it to the playoffs.

643
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 4: So what does what does EJ do now that the

644
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 4: season is over?

645
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 5: Man, I'm about to go get away, you know, me

646
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 5: and me and my family. We love going to Hawaii,

647
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 5: So we're gonna get away here for a little bit. Yeah,

648
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 5: and then you know, at some point I get back

649
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 5: into live and get ready to go, you.

650
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 4: Know, do this thing again.

Speaker 2: Yep. You from Georgia, j Yeah, South Georgia. What part

00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 4: You didn't even you just finding this out.

654
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 2: I don't know you from Wait Cross? Yeah, man, I'm

655
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 2: right there. Man. We used to catch chicken over a

656
00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 2: way Cross and Baxlet Backsley. Yes, sir, hey check this out.

657
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: That ring you guys kind of started a joy normous

658
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: one of those big I'm talking about this thing, this

659
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 1: big around you trying to you trying to top that

660
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 1: with the Seahawks.

661
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 5: Most definitely got to They got I'm hoping and praying

662
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 5: they let me design this thing and you know, let me,

663
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 5: you know, get a few ideas out there.

664
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 2: Man, the Seahawks. He might be a real instead of

665
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 2: the head, he might be the whole sea off.

666
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 1: But on a more serious note, John Snyder smoke at

667
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 1: the ceremony of your presentation about how you, Jake Bobo,

668
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 1: Drew Locke, and Charles Cross all lost.

669
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 2: Your father's this year.

670
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 1: Talk about that special kind of bond that you guys

671
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 1: had going through loss but still having the main focus

672
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: because you know, the football season doesn't stop even though

673
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 1: there might be a loss or tragedy that that someone

674
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: in the family might have faced.

675
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 5: Man, it was definitely tough when we all had those

676
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 5: conversations together. You know, I think I lost my father first,

677
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 5: and then right around the time that I was losing mind,

678
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 5: you know, Charles had started going through you know, the

679
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 5: complications were his. So it was tough man, you know,

680
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 5: speaking to him and you know, not having all the

681
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 5: answers myself because I'm still trying to deal with it.

682
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 5: But we got a great support system there. They that team.

683
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 5: I tell you, they look out for you. They really

684
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 5: truly care about you. So it was easy when we

685
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 5: came back to work because they knew, you know, that

686
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 5: we were dealing with stuff.

687
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 2: But they let us.

688
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 5: They let us grieve, they let us have our moments.

689
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 5: They let us come back and be around our boys

690
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 5: and you know, do this thing that we love. So

691
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 5: it honestly, you know, made it easier being around the

692
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 5: guys because.

693
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: It takes a special typic compartmentalization because you realize, like

694
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: you know what I am. I am grieving, but I

695
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 1: know my dad would want me, would want X, Y

696
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 1: and Z, And I know the level of expectation because

697
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of times sports is sports is

698
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 1: not like a regular job. In a regular job, they

699
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: might give you bereathing a time and you might get

700
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: able to take a to that ain't how professional sports working. Now,

701
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 1: maybe in baseball, I could just speak the football. So

702
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to get out of you know, get

703
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: out of character and say what I this is how

704
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 1: it is in basketball. I'm talking about football.

705
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 2: Man. Basically, you go to the pay so you go

706
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 2: into a funeral when you when you think you'll be back, Yes,

707
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 2: for sure.

708
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 5: And that's what I say, like for you know, for

709
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 5: most most teams, and and I can't speak for every team,

710
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 5: but I know that you know, they wouldn't be willing

711
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 5: to let their start middle lineback and leave too much

712
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 5: and miss that much of time during training, camping and

713
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 5: things before. And they didn't stress me out about it

714
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 5: at all. They let us, you know, do what we

715
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 5: had to do. So I really appreciate them for that.

716
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's funny, especially when it comes to losing

717
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 4: loved ones. I think teams understand that the owners of gms,

718
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 4: obviously the head coaches. We've all dealt with loss. Sometimes

719
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 4: it happened during the season and end season. I lost

720
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 4: my father. I lost my father when I was with

721
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 4: the Patriots. He passed away from pancreatic cancer as well.

722
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 4: And they allowed me to to to to do what

723
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 4: I needed to do to do it was necessary as

724
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 4: far as funeral arrangements and going to a funeral and

725
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 4: and and and having having to come back and they

726
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 4: understand that. Most of the time, your brothers in that

727
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,280
Speaker 4: locker room, they understand what you're going through. So sometimes

728
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 4: it's somewhat good and you want to be back in

729
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 4: that environment of your extended family, you know, to be

730
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 4: around the fellas to kind of get away from that

731
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,279
Speaker 4: because most of the time you go to go to work,

732
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 4: especially after a tragedy like that, that that's that's your

733
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 4: sense of peace. Peace being around your brothers. Man, it

734
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 4: may make you feel a lot.

735
00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 2: Better, Oh for sure, definitely.

736
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: But the thing is the best thing about that with you, Aj,

737
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 1: is that you're a vested player because a lot of times,

738
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 1: I remember my great grandmother passed, I was afraid to ask.

739
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,359
Speaker 2: I was like, I ain't ask.

740
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,880
Speaker 1: Then when my grandmother, my grandmother, my dad's mom passed,

741
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 1: we ended up like we're gonna have to have this

742
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: thing on a Monday, because if you don't have it

743
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: on the Monday, I'm not gonna be able.

744
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:51,320
Speaker 2: To make it.

745
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,360
Speaker 1: So, you know, fortunate enough, like you said, you're a

746
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: vested player, and you know they gave you that kind

747
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 1: of time because they, like I said, we understand that

748
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: this says they say this, This is what they say oh,

749
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: you know, the family is the most important, man, stop it.

750
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 2: It's football important too.

Speaker 4: structured the right way. We just have the opportunity to win.

787
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,839

793
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I can just imagine coming there as a rookie.

794
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 1: I came in the Broncos after they had gotten their

795
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 1: eyes beat out fifty five to ten by the the

796
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: forty nine ers.

797
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 2: But winning that first Super Bowl.

798
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 1: Look, and I was very fortunate, like you said, went

799
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 1: back to back ninety seven, ninety eight, and then went

800
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: to the Ravens in two thousand and one again.

801
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 2: But ain't nothing like that first one. Ain't nothing like it.

802
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,800
Speaker 2: Ain't nothing like it the second one, O yoe. You know,

810
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: fortunate that it meant so much to me. I gave

811
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,320
Speaker 1: my first ring to my brother because me, Yeah, I

812
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,719
Speaker 1: was a part of the journey. And his career got

813
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 1: cut short, like two years after he ended a year

814
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 1: after he.

815
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:20,280
Speaker 2: Ended up retiring.

816
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 1: They go to the Super Bowl and win it, so

817
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: and he retired, you know, his last year, ohho eighteen

818
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,560
Speaker 1: touchdowns ninety four catches and never played another snap.

819
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 2: He was twenty nine years of age. So I was like,

820
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 2: you know what, man, And I told him.

821
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: I remember doing the interview with NBC, It's like, bro,

822
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:39,879
Speaker 1: we went to superow, I'm gonna give you, I'm gonna

823
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:40,439
Speaker 1: give you the ring.

824
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 4: And you know what I thought about too.

825
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:43,839
Speaker 2: What you think? You see? You see?

826
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 4: You see how the rings look? You know when during

827
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 4: when Jerry Rice played, Yeah, yeah, they was how small

828
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 4: the rings?

829
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 2: Yeah? I do.

830
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 4: Do you think would it be possible for players to

831
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 4: be able to upgrade those rings?

832
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: No?

833
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 4: Have him looking No, I'm just saying, have him look

834
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,759
Speaker 4: like today's rings, but still have the date, the dates

835
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 4: from back then.

836
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 2: It won't it won't have it won't have the same meaning.

837
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 4: Well, it don't look like no meaning when you compare

838
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 4: it to any guy.

839
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 5: Damn.

840
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I guess I don't know. I guess

841
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: you'd have to look at it like a class ring

842
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: or something like that. You know the rings, I mean,

843
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 1: ain't nobody have no no fifteen twenty carre. I mean

844
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 1: they're like a handful of people that have big diamond rings,

845
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,359
Speaker 1: not everybody. Everybody in the NFL. White got a big

848
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 2: What it what it means. The size doesn't doesn't add

849
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 2: more meaning to it.

850
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 1: I won the super Bowl. They could have gave it

851
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:43,759

00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 2: I saw that. I saw that.

858
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I see what Jason of Beverly Hill,

859
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: I've got a couple of pieces from him, have all

860
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 1: the rings that he's basically designed. Yeah, since then Tampa

861
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: and the Eagles, and and and the the Rams, yes,

862
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 1: the Patriots, the Patriots, yea, the Chiefs. So he's kind

863
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 1: of I think he did the Chiefs, but I know

864
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,280
Speaker 1: he's done the Rams. I know he did the Eagles.

865
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 1: He did someone else's too. And you're right, oh, I

866
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 1: mean you look at you like God Lee, Yeah, but

867
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,400
Speaker 1: the meaning behind it be sides don't even matter. I

868
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 1: mean you look at look at look at the Packers

869
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 1: on the first one. I'm like, damn, that looks like

870
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:40,560
Speaker 1: a class ring. But when you see a world champ

871
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 1: on the side.

872
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I mean, I don't know, it's like

873
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 4: an upgrade. I mean, Joe, sometimes, you know, it's always

874
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 4: good the upgrade things. Sometimes the upgrade things to make

875
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 4: him look look a little better. You know, as as

876
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:54,240
Speaker 4: time involved.

877
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 2: You have to get a whole new ring. You can't.

878
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:56,919
Speaker 2: You can't. You can't.

879
00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 1: That's it is what it is. That's not that's not

880
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:01,800
Speaker 1: like a house that you could add on to. You

881
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 1: have to get a whole new rings. I give it

882
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 1: an example, Joe. It's kind of what we did with

883
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame rings. Yes, we had one company

884
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: that was doing the rings and they were small, and

885
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: then I think K came in.

886
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,520
Speaker 2: And they they're they're big now and so and so

887
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 2: they like.

888
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: Gradually gradually gradually, and they just like ended up and

889
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,640

00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 1: Every game that she's come to, we won. Yeah, m

933
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 1: but unfortunately she didn't like coming to the games. But

934
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: I suposed to get that one game the normally the

00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 2: that's it for me. Yeah.

939
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 1: Now my mom would come come, you know, she would

00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 1: have to go get to get Sometimes she would get

941
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,200
Speaker 1: the kids and bring them out. So that was right

942
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:43,000
Speaker 1: up for atlet But yeah, no, I couldn't. I can't

943
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:47,919
Speaker 1: that dare that to lose that game. And you see

944
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 1: how Drake Maye was trying to find Sam Donald and

945
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,719

00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 4: feeling man when they scoot your ass off the field.

950
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, Joe, Hey, imagine how san Antonio felt in game six,

951
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 1: they already got the court. They all brought the champagne out,

952
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 1: and then reality hit that shot and now they got

953
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 1: the guy and they pushed the champagne back in the

954
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 1: locker room and.

Speaker 2: Sorry, I'm sorry.

956
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 3: Hey, hey, listen, and you get to see that as

957
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 3: players though, because I'd have been in a few close

958
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 3: out games. Uh And the one that I can really

959
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 3: remember is when I was playing in Phoenix two thousand

960
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 3: and four, Uncle Ojo. We was playing against the Spurs.

Speaker 2: They was up on us.

962
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,800
Speaker 3: They was up on US three one, and we was playing.

963
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,279
Speaker 3: Uh no, they was up on US three zero and

964
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,440
Speaker 3: we was playing at the house for game four. Soon

965
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:49,360
Speaker 3: as we come into the arena to go warm up,

966
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,320
Speaker 3: Uncle Oyo I'm talking about Man, they got Confederate stuff.

00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:56,479
Speaker 2: a room. It was ship.

969
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,840
Speaker 3: I said, oh, man, they finished trying to celebrate on

00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:04,320
Speaker 3: and to say, hey, man, I'm for ready to celebrate anything.

972
00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:07,319
Speaker 2: Anyway. We end up winning the game. But man, yeah,

973
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 2: when you see that, yeah, it'll make you It'll make

974
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 2: you look again.

975
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:11,760
Speaker 4: That's crazy.

976
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:16,279
Speaker 1: Joe oh chose NBA find Utah Jazz five hundred k

977
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,320
Speaker 1: for the what leagues call conduct detrimental to the league,

978
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: and Indiana Pacers will find one hundred k for violating

979
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: the league's player participation policy. In addition, Adam Silver said

980
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,000
Speaker 1: in an NBA news release that the league is seeking

981
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 1: to implement further measures to root out this type of conduct.

982
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:38,880
Speaker 1: Overt behavior like this prioritized draft position over winning, undermines

983
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 1: the foundation of the NBA competition and will respond accordingly

984
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 1: to any further actions that compromise the integrity of our games. Additionally,

985
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 1: we are working with our Competition Committee, Competition Committee, and

986
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 1: Board of Governors to implement further measures to root out

987
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:58,720
Speaker 1: this type of conduct. On February the seventh, the Jazz

988
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:04,040
Speaker 1: played Orlando Magic in Orlando. Louri Marketing and Jared Jackson

989
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 1: had combined to score forty nine points over the first

990
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 1: three quarters, helping Utah to a ninety four to eighty

991
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 1: seven lead entering the fourth quarter, but the Jazz held

992
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: out Marketing at Jackson fellow starters Yousef Nurkic for the

993
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 1: entire fourth quarter, and they lost the game one one seventeen.

994
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 1: Two nights later, Jazz carried an eighty five eighty two

995
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:29,520
Speaker 1: lead over the Heat in the fourth quarter, and once again, Marketing,

996
00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:33,200
Speaker 1: Jackson Nurkic did not play in the final period, but

997
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:36,840
Speaker 1: Utah ended up beating Miami one fifteen, one eleven. Utah

998
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:40,120
Speaker 1: Jazz odor Ryan Smith responded to the five saying, agree

999
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:43,360
Speaker 1: to disagree. Also, we won the game in Miami and

1000
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:47,160
Speaker 1: got fined. That makes no sense. The Jazz oh a

1001
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 1: protected first round pick of the twenty twenty sixth draft. Hey,

1002
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:54,279
Speaker 1: what the hell are they trying to do?

1003
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:54,719
Speaker 2: Joe?

1004
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 3: Let me tell ya something, Joe. Uh, I'm I'm with

1005
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 3: Adam on this as far as finding these teams. But

1006
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 3: if i'm these teams, I'm gonna take that little fine,

1007
00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 3: because look, let me tell you it's talented. It's this

1008
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 3: draft class. It's gonna be. It can put you, it

1009
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 3: can put your head fifteen twenty years. Oh yo, you

1010
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:19,800
Speaker 3: you get the right you pick the right one. You

1011
00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 3: know it's there's some it's gonna be some stars in

1012
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 3: this draft class.

1013
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 2: Bro. And if you got un.

1014
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:28,799
Speaker 3: I really believe even if you got a top five,

1015
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:32,360
Speaker 3: top seven pick, you're still gonna get great value.

1016
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:33,080
Speaker 2: Bro. It's deep.

1017
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 3: This is this is this is this is a good one.

1018
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 3: This is a good this is a good draft class.

1019
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,279
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take the fine too. If I'm the NBA team, Yeah,

1020
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:40,279
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take that fine too.

1021
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,360
Speaker 1: The problem that Utah have, Ojoe, if their pick is

1022
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: eight or down, they have to turn that pick over

1023
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,480
Speaker 1: to Okay, see, so they want to make they want

1024
00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:50,279
Speaker 1: to try to get as many ping pong ball as

1025
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 1: they possibly can. Right, just stay one through seven, so

1026
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: we get to kill right, because the last thing you

1027
00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:58,839
Speaker 1: want to have is a top ten pick. That's eight

1028
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: somewhere eight of young below and I be damn, we

1029
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 1: got to turn this thing.

1030
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 2: Over to them. They already got abundance of wealth and

1031
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:08,480
Speaker 2: now we gotta.

1032
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, that sucks. That sucks for the players that's playing,

1033
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 4: that's playing on the jazz thttle Joe. So it's it's like,

1034
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 4: I mean, we were going out here playing and I

1035
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:21,520
Speaker 4: know management they're trying to tank. They taking us out

1036
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,359

1038
00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,560
Speaker 4: ain't part of our job trying to worry about will

1039
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:31,279
Speaker 4: be drafting that.

1040
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 3: Hey, look Ojo, you're absolutely right. And as a player,

1043
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,080
Speaker 3: to look good too at the end of the year

1044
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:46,440
Speaker 3: when you're trying to go up there and negotiate your contract.

1045
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:47,560
Speaker 3: I don't care that.

1046
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,959
Speaker 2: That's why they have to sit those guys out because

00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 2: if they don't they know the marketing and JJ they

1048
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,839

Speaker 4: be that type. You know, if I'm wanting if I'm

1064
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:50,680
Speaker 4: one of the ballers on the jazz, honestly, I mean,

1065
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 4: knowing me and my mentality, I ain't. I don't care

1066
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:55,560
Speaker 4: about what you're trying to draft, and you definitely ain't

1067
00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:56,920
Speaker 4: take me out no game And I'm.

1068
00:49:56,880 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 2: Just my time five for conduct detrimental. See how that worked?

1069
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:05,719
Speaker 2: What absolutely they gonna because I don't want to come

1070
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:09,040
Speaker 2: out the game. Yes, that's contract detrimental to the team.

1071
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 3: O Jo, wet We already we already ain't won, but

1072
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,960
Speaker 3: like sixteen games, ain't like we're gonna make no playing

1073
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:20,839
Speaker 3: and no playoffs, like we we we need more ping

1074
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 3: pong balls so we can try to get one of

1075
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:23,360
Speaker 3: these pheenoms.

1076
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:26,319
Speaker 2: That's coming out. Now the team ain't gonna come out

1077
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:27,960
Speaker 2: and say that. But we we.

1078
00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 1: Get looking like the Spurs. They get David Robinson and

1079
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:36,160
Speaker 1: then they get Kim Duncan.

1080
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 2: How they get with me?

1081
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,720
Speaker 3: But look, how did they get Tim Duncan. That's because

1082
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,239
Speaker 3: David Robinson them had set out pretty much that year.

1083
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 2: I hurt. So they won.

1084
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,239
Speaker 3: They was one of the weakest teams in the league.

1085
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:49,759
Speaker 3: They ain't up getting the number one pick. And you

1086
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,239
Speaker 3: get Tim Duncan and David Robinson together. Now you got

1087
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 3: a dynasty. That's the start of it.

1088
00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,919
Speaker 2: That was you len me. Yeah. Yeah.

1089
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 3: So so it's all it takes, man, You one more

1090
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,600
Speaker 3: piece that you tah can add to that puzz over there,

1091
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,480
Speaker 3: and they could be one of the top teams.

1092
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 2: In the West real quick. And you gotta get lucky.

1093
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:08,600
Speaker 2: I mean you look at the Lakers.

1094
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:10,840
Speaker 1: The Lakers win the NBA Championship and guess what to

1095
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:12,800
Speaker 1: get the number one open, they get James Worthy?

1096
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:14,200
Speaker 2: How the hell hold on.

1097
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 1: And koreb We win the championship and guess what the

1098
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,520
Speaker 1: number one overall pick University of North Carolina six foot

1099
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:23,120
Speaker 1: eight James Worthy.

1100
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,400
Speaker 2: Ain't How did that happen. They never happened.

1101
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:28,839
Speaker 1: How you win the championship and get the number one pick,

1102
00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 1: but you know early on Joe, uh, just before your time.

1103
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 1: But you could draft like the Celtics drafted Lard Bird

1104
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 1: his junior year and kept his rights, So you could

1105
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,319
Speaker 1: draft the player and still have his rights.

1106
00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:47,680
Speaker 4: Great, I'm not I'm not even gonna ask.

1107
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:52,719
Speaker 1: Oh, because used it used to be you drafted territorial right,

1108
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,600
Speaker 1: so you drafted a player that was in that in

1109
00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:56,160
Speaker 1: that area.

1110
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 2: Okay, so but you could draft them.

1111
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,960
Speaker 1: You could draft the player, draft the player, he go

1112
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:05,360
Speaker 1: back to school, and you still maintained his rights.

1113
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.

1114
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 1: So that's what happened with the Celtics, and the Celtics

1115
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:13,319
Speaker 1: did a good thing. They ended up trading Joe Barren

1116
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:17,719
Speaker 1: Carroll and guess what they traded Joe Barrakell They got

1117
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 1: Robert Parris and oh Lloyd Bole, Kevin McHale.

1118
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:22,560
Speaker 2: So now you got a Big three four.

1119
00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: And you trade you getting Nate Archibaal, You get rid

1120
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:29,799
Speaker 1: of Nate Archiball and then guess what you get DJ

1121
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:32,560
Speaker 1: who had just won the finals.

1122
00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:34,760
Speaker 2: I think he was a finals MVP with Seattle.

1123
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:41,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, they had a whip they had a whilly now

1124
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:43,200
Speaker 3: that Boston Cells the team was.

1125
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:46,160
Speaker 1: I mean, a lot of the rules back in the

1126
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: seem like in the free throw Joe used to get

1127
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:50,759
Speaker 1: three to make two. You got three attempts to make

1128
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:55,160
Speaker 1: two shots. There was a lot of like, damn a

1129
00:52:56,480 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 1: so you may you made one, you missed one at

1130
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:05,880
Speaker 1: one more free throw. But uh, and I agree with you, Joe.

1131
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:07,880
Speaker 1: I see what the Jazz are doing. It doesn't it

1132
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:12,200
Speaker 1: doesn't look good. Uh that you tank, but they gonna tank.

1133
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:12,880
Speaker 1: Ain't nothing you could do.

1134
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:15,840
Speaker 2: And now you're gonna have. You're gonna just eat that.

1135
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,920
Speaker 3: Fine at the end of the day, if we get

1136
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:21,399
Speaker 3: the number one pick or even the number two pick,

1137
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:26,200
Speaker 3: O Joe were back in business, baby, Yeah.

1138
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 4: Hope hopefully those picks turn out.

1139
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:28,680
Speaker 2: Joe.

1140
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 4: You say we got they got you gotta deep. You

1141
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:32,400
Speaker 4: got a deep class this year.

1142
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:36,600
Speaker 3: Oh, Joe, them top I'm talking about for show them

1143
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:41,400
Speaker 3: top four five picks. They're gonna be special. Orlando got

1144
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:45,879
Speaker 3: shot and then guess what that's going on? They got

1145
00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:48,920
Speaker 3: the next year, Chris Webber. They traded Curtch Whoeber for

1146
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:49,720
Speaker 3: Penny Hardaway.

1147
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:55,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it worked out. You get the getting the

1148
00:53:55,480 --> 00:54:01,000
Speaker 2: right player all the dass won. Yeah, yeah, yes, that's it.

1149
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:02,600
Speaker 2: It changing for.

1150
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:07,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a smart move. I wonder I wonder

1151
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,839
Speaker 3: why Orlando just didn't take Penny one. I think because

1152
00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:13,400
Speaker 3: Chris Webber was so he was so people don't realize

1153
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,200
Speaker 3: how good. I see where it was before Ease.

1154
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:18,440

1161
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:36,200

Speaker 3: Now he sending a message to I think the people. Yeah,

1239
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,120
Speaker 3: I think for everybody who counted them out to start

1240
00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:42,120
Speaker 3: the season. Nobody had them coming out the East. Nobody

1241
00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:43,680
Speaker 3: had them at the top of the East, you know

1242
00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 3: what I mean. And they've stayed afloat and honestly, oh Joe,

1243
00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 3: he's in the MVP compisition and rightfully so, he's been balling.

1244
00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:52,760
Speaker 2: Bro he's been balling.

1245
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:55,280
Speaker 3: But they've had other guys who stepped up, Peyton Bridge

1246
00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:56,560
Speaker 3: up this wells Houser.

1247
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, the Celtics counted him out. They're the one

1248
00:58:59,840 --> 00:59:01,840
Speaker 1: that sold all those pieces they the on wasn't that

1249
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:04,960
Speaker 1: Let they all help Horford go? They traded Chris stap Persingers,

1250
00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:08,200
Speaker 1: they traded Holiday. What you talking about we the fan? No,

1251
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 1: y'all did that right?

1252
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't.

1253
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:13,920
Speaker 1: Think you were gonna be as good as you are.

1254
00:59:14,240 --> 00:59:16,680
Speaker 1: But JB, like you said, it's averaging twenty eight points

1255
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:20,040
Speaker 1: a game. Peyton Pritchett has been Peyton pritchet Colehauser. Though

1256
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:23,600
Speaker 1: they've had Derrick White's played phenomenal, they've had guys to

1257
00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:27,720
Speaker 1: step up. It's surprising that the Boston celf is considering

1258
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:30,920
Speaker 1: all that JT went down, and he was not expecting

1259
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,120
Speaker 1: that he may or may not come back this season.

1260
00:59:33,560 --> 00:59:35,800
Speaker 1: But when you get rid of Horford, when you get

1261
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:38,160
Speaker 1: rid of Holiday, when you get rid of Pazingers, I

1262
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,640
Speaker 1: don't think nobody thought they would be in the position

1263
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 1: that they're currently in and he's just singing.

1264
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:44,760
Speaker 2: Their praise And I don't have a problem with him

1265
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:47,560
Speaker 2: doing that. Yeah, I don't either. I don't either.

1266
00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 3: But they've had other guys outside the guys that Uncle mentioned,

1267
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:53,479
Speaker 3: they've had other guys come off the bench.

1268
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:56,280
Speaker 1: Oh Simon, you remember Simon's was playing well before they

1269
00:59:56,360 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 1: traded him. He contrastraates he that she was playing well.

1270
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:02,920
Speaker 1: It's kind of like plug and play guys.

1271
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,480
Speaker 3: It's like a great system and guys just kind of

1272
01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 3: go out there and do their thing, you know what

1273
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:11,160
Speaker 3: I mean. Yeah, it's been fun to watch they've been competing.

1274
01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:14,600
Speaker 3: He's talk about the fab No, no, no, the bosson

1275
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:16,760

1276
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:18,800
Speaker 3: Because they thought y'all was gonna be that. They kept

1277
01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:22,320
Speaker 3: them pieces right, But J A. J. B letting the

1278
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:25,720
Speaker 3: critics know. He letting everybody know who was like, oh yeah, Boston, they.

Speaker 1: where we was at last yet, like we really in

1282
01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:34,200
Speaker 1: the same sho when you got two guys making three

1283
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,040
Speaker 1: hundred million, they damn sure better keep best.

1284
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:39,920
Speaker 2: That would go out. They better still float break this up?

1285
01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:45,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, so they second in it. Look I'm gonna say

1286

01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:48,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, far do you see him?

1288
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:51,520
Speaker 4: How far do you see him going? Especially with.

1289
01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 2: It's matching. I think it's matchups, me, I think, I

1290
01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:57,040
Speaker 2: think because if.

1291
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:59,080
Speaker 3: You get the wrong matchup in the first round home,

1292
01:01:00,800 --> 01:01:04,280
Speaker 3: you could be Yeah, you come serious, you could be.

1293
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 3: It's some teams. Look, I know we talk a lot

1294
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:09,360
Speaker 3: of crap, and I don't know how long they can

1295
01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 3: keep it up. But the Hornets prior to the loss

1296
01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:14,400
Speaker 3: against the Pistons other night and the little bron they

1297
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:21,080
Speaker 3: had and the Hornets had one. What absolute if they

1298
01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:23,760
Speaker 3: end up if they continue to keep playing, well, let's

1299
01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:25,760
Speaker 3: say they do get into play in and do get

1300
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:29,919
Speaker 3: the seventh or the a seed, man, they can cause

1314
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,200
Speaker 1: The East form a lottery pick all Rickey team selection

1315
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:18,440
Speaker 1: Jeremy Showhand. So Hand has decided to side with the

1316
01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:20,880
Speaker 1: New York Knicks. He would join the Knicks once he

1317
01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:23,640
Speaker 1: clears waivers. He reached the bottle agreement with the Spurs

1318
01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:27,320
Speaker 1: on Wednesday. So Hand had entered from ten teams before

1319
01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:30,640
Speaker 1: deciding on the Knicks. Joe, how much did this siding

1320

Speaker 2: Man?

1322
01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:36,680
Speaker 3: I like him, I guess because the Spurs so deep that,

1323
01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:39,000
Speaker 3: you know, they had to give up something Uncle Oto.

1324
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:42,080
Speaker 3: But he's a he's a great guy, like a twiner

1325
01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:45,000
Speaker 3: who can guard multiple positions, plays with high energy.

1326
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:47,360
Speaker 2: I like it. He gonna help the Knicks a lot.

1327
01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:49,560
Speaker 3: As you can see the Knicks, you know they they

1328
01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:52,479

1333
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:11,400
Speaker 4: the young dude. Man, I can't think. Was he Puerto

1334
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:14,120
Speaker 4: Rican player? He was short but real high energy on

1335
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:16,680
Speaker 4: both ends of the court. Man, I think he played

1336
01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:17,280
Speaker 4: for the MAVs.
