Yep, just like. 18 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 3: We're hearing an Oregon here. You know that's an organ 19 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 3: for me. 20 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, those Jays look great. What a short game. We 21 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,279 Speaker 2: go from six yeah, two fast, six and a half 22 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 2: to two fifty. 23 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,479 Speaker 1: That's the way baseball should be playing it's great. 24 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 3: So Game fives. 25 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 4: Tonight, cheesus murfy Okay, yeah, bang dang bang. 26 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: All right, so best of three in the World Series. 27 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: That's exciting, especially First Jays fans. But we got some 28 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: NBA basketball to talk about today. We'll touch on some 29 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: of the games, and a little bit later we'll discuss 30 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: some early season surprises, a couple of things that have 31 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: jumped out after a week or so at basketball. But 32 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 1: let's start with the honest score in thirty seven t 33 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: k and Rowlins adding twenty five as the Bucks beat 34 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: the Knicks one twenty one to one eleven. And I 35 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: say that a little surprised because if you saw the 36 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: first half, looked like the Knicks We're gonna run away 37 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: with this. I thought they were playing much much better. 38 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: Definitely thought they were just going to destroy them in 39 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: the second half. But Joannist and crew got back into 40 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: it and win comfortably in the end. 41 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 3: Would you call it a tailor two halves? Probably? 42 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 4: I absolutely would, especially for the Knicks on offense, first 43 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 4: half fifteen assists on twenty five makes. They had nine threes. 44 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 4: Second half nine assists on fourteen makes, only four to 45 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 4: three pointers. The ball just stopped moving. They looked like 46 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 4: last season's Nicks. We'll get into the Ruegians. They fell 47 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 4: apart a little bit later. But for the Bucks, nobody 48 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 4: locks in harder than Yannis after the half twenty three points, 49 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 4: six rebounds, six assists, a steal, and two blocks. That's 50 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 4: an entire game. And he did that in the second half, 51 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 4: just completely took over. Bucks were down two with six 52 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 4: minutes left. Yannas scored eleven, had three boards, two assists, 53 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 4: a steal, in a block, turned a two point game 54 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 4: into a ten point lead and a ten point win 55 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 4: for the Bucks. Janis looks great. He should be getting 56 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 4: MVP votes at the least. He's like gonna finish number 57 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 4: three like he always does. But he's been good with 58 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 4: Miles Turner, but he is destroying teams when he's playing 59 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 4: as the only big man out there. Gyana's at the 60 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 4: five minutes are a plus twenty points per one hundred possessions. 61 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 4: It's only twenty two minutes so far, five minutes per game. 62 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 4: But when they go ball handlers and shooters out there 63 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 4: with Giannis, there is just so much space for him, 64 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 4: and if he gets a tiny bit of room, he's 65 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 4: gonna dunk. It like, you know, Wenby is the guy 66 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 4: right now who is You can't believe some of the 67 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 4: dunks he does. You don't think he's gonna be able 68 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 4: to get the ball to the rim. Giannis is the 69 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 4: guy who was doing that before Wemby ever came to 70 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 4: the league, and it's the same sort of thing. He 71 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 4: takes a ton of steps in between his dribbles, but 72 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 4: the ball is just hanging there in his gather, spinning 73 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 4: and spinning, so you can't start counting the steps until 74 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 4: it's done. 75 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 3: And as soon as it's done. 76 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 4: I'm putting one down left handed, I'm putting one down 77 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 4: right handed. He's an MVP level player. He gets better 78 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 4: every single year. I feel like an absolute clown for 79 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 4: taking the Bucks under. They look awesome right now. 80 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: Oh. I went and checked after this victory, this impressive 81 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 2: victory beating the Knicks, if all of us took the 82 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 2: Bucks over, I thought we all did. After looking maybe 83 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 2: the I got a pre edited edition of the graphic 84 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 2: because I saw we were all over but maybe needed 85 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 2: to be corrected. This was, yeah, very impressive. I thought 86 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 2: the fight level of the Milwaukee Bucks in that second 87 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 2: half was super impressive. The way They're banging bodies against 88 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 2: Karl Anthony town so he had an inefficient night. Kyle 89 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: Kuzman out there. You could hear them the meat that 90 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 2: a body to body. Ryan Rollins was super duper impressive 91 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 2: offensive end. You mentioned the career high of twenty five, 92 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: but I thought he created a couple really key turnovers 93 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 2: in the middle of the fourth quarter. He was awesome. 94 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 2: The Milwaukee Bucks are literally playing ten guys fifteen or 95 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 2: more minutes in this particular game. We're all surprised by that, 96 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 2: and I'm sure that's why you in part took them 97 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 2: under because we didn't think they had enough guys out 98 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: there to play. But you could see Doc Rivers is 99 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 2: trying to do what okay Se does. Everybody trying to 100 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 2: emulate them. We're gonna play as many guys as possible, 101 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 2: and they produced. In this instance, Jannis is obviously the key, 102 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: even though Rollind said twenty five, they only had one 103 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 2: other guy in double digits with eleven for Gary Trent. 104 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 2: Jannis has to be super duper rest of it. Yeah, 105 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 2: he was. He was into it. He knew it was 106 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 2: an NBC game. I think we're just in part, just 107 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 2: in part you could see him saying, this is my city. 108 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: He did the the spin move to the bucket and 109 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 2: then did the the double spin afterwards. He's just around. 110 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 2: I mean, I think he's got some great Greek dance moves. 111 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 2: At least that's that's what I think when I see 112 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 2: that move. The zabecy Co dance is the best Greek dance. 113 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: I think he's got it in him for sure. 114 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 3: But is a good dancer. I bet he's not. 115 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 4: He's too big, he doesn't have wiggle, he has force, 116 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 4: he has strength, he does have side to side movement, 117 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 4: But I bet he's not a good dancer. I hear 118 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 4: what you're saying, great basketball player, don't think he can dance. 119 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 4: Let us now on the stream team got the poll going. 120 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 2: I think he's got the spin moves, and you obviously 121 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 2: canet push. 122 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: Dancer for a giant guy. Let me put it that way, 123 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: because I'm with you. Generally huge dudes, you know, there's 124 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: a lot of limbs to try and coordinate. But I 125 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: think he's not bad on the spectrum of giant dancers. 126 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 4: Well, okay, yeah, definitely, he's one of the most coordinated 127 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 4: men on Earth, there's no doubt about that. But if 128 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 4: he's just out there on the dance floor at a wedding, 129 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 4: spinning and spinning and spinning. You're leaving the dance floor. 130 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 4: You don't want to get hit. 131 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 2: I will say this about Dennis, not his dancing, his 132 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 2: MVP status. The guy is shooting basically seventy percent from 133 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 2: the from the floor, Like that's seven and ten buckets. 134 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 2: Seven every ten bucks, seven buckets. He will score, no problem. 135 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 2: That is ridiculous. He's averaging only thirty three minutes played. Surprisingly, 136 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 2: he's not playing a ton, but when he's out there, 137 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 2: he shoots a lot, averaging fourteen field goals made per game, 138 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 2: leading the league in that because that's what he does. 139 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: The question is is this sustainable for the Milwaukee Bucks 140 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 2: the entire season? 141 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 4: Right? 142 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: And that's why Trey I remember, did take the under 143 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: because you brought it up a couple times when we 144 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: talked about Milwaukee in the preseason. It's like, he's likely, 145 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: be honest, is likely going to miss I don't know, 146 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 1: fifteen to twenty ish games because he's asked to do 147 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: so much. And what happens to Milwaukee when that inevitably happens. 148 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 1: That's always a big talking point. I remember where you 149 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: were like, I don't know what happens. They might go 150 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: you know, three and seventeen and said games if he 151 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: misses that chunk of time. 152 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, does Miles Turner and the fact that him taking 153 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 2: big bodies beside him a ton because he's playing a 154 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: good amount of minutes out there, even if he didn't 155 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 2: have a good offensive game. Does that help his efficiency? 156 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 2: Does it help the durability of Jannisteta Kupo? Yeah if 157 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: he prays? So far, Yeah, so good. They're only lost 158 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 2: this season. They are were also missing a bunch of guys. 159 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 2: Kuzma was out and a couple of their guards were out, 160 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 2: Ken Porter Junior who missed this game too, and cole 161 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 2: Ante in this one. So yeah, the overlooks easy right 162 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: now when they're school in the three and three and 163 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 2: one right now? 164 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 3: But yeah, how many games does Jannis miss? 165 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: This is a very very good start for Bucks fans though, 166 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: Like obviously Giannis is putting up MVP numbers. He's even 167 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: reassuring Bucks fans that he's more interested in beating New 168 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: York then joining New York. That was a talking talking 169 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: point after this game, And I you know, you got 170 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: col Anthony back. You got Kuzma back last night. Guess 171 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: Kevin Porter Junior is gonna be out for a little bit, 172 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: is what Doc Rivers is saying. They're like really taking 173 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: their time as he recovers from a left ankle sprain. 174 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: But I loved the defensive effort of I guess it 175 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: was Miles Turner, Bobby Portis, and yep, a little Kyle 176 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: Kuzma on slowing Karl Anthony Towns last night. Two to 177 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: twelve for Kat eight points. That's it, zero for three 178 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: from deep, not even a lot of attempts his lay 179 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: His two baskets were One was a layup where he 180 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: did sort of blow by Kuzma, and the other one 181 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: was like one of those flukey plays where like the 182 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 1: ball sort of spit out right to him for an 183 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: easy dunk underneath. That was it for Kat, So good job, 184 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: great job defensively as a team taking him out because 185 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: Brunson was getting his though, then he got hobbled in 186 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, sort of gutted it out. He returned 187 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: like that looks like a bad hamstring injury or something there. 188 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 1: I don't know what will be the verdict on him 189 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: in the coming days, but I just couldn't believe they 190 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: got back in this game and won it, because it 191 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: looked like they were dead in the water through twenty 192 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: four minutes. 193 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they got Yanis. 194 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 4: The bench was basically all negatives, and if you look 195 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 4: at their on off splits when Giannis doesn't play, there 196 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 4: at bottom five offense. The defense has been holding up 197 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 4: even when Yannis is off the court, but he is 198 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 4: by far their engines. So it's just a matter of 199 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 4: how long can this guy do every single thing on 200 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 4: the court before needing to take a little break picking 201 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 4: up a little injury here and there. That's why I 202 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 4: was down on the Bucks having Giannis. If you tell 203 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 4: me Yannis plays eighty two games, they're gonna win probably 204 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 4: fifty games. Yeah, he's unstoppable. On the other side of things, 205 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 4: Towns is struggling with this new offense. He's been under 206 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 4: twenty points in a game in three of their four 207 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 4: games this season. Last year he was under twenty and 208 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 4: only a third of the games for the Knicks. He's 209 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 4: career low in attempts for thirty six. His usage grade 210 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,239 Speaker 4: is right near his career lows. His field goal percentage, 211 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 4: his three point percentage, those are career lows. He doesn't 212 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 4: seem to be knowing how to fit in in a 213 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 4: more egalitarian offense. 214 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 3: I think that will come around. 215 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 4: You know, we're still only four games into the and 216 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 4: give it twenty games for the Knicks to actually figure 217 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 4: out the way their offense fits together. 218 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 3: But definitely a bad start for him. 219 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 4: He seems to be the guy who's having the most 220 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 4: trouble adjusting. 221 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 2: Agreed, Yeah, he's the one who's off a little bit. 222 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 2: I think we're talking about this totally different if they 223 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 2: just come through with a few buckets down in the 224 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 2: fourth quarter. Because Jalen Brunson was definitely injured. He's hobbling around. 225 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 2: You can see it easily. He powered through, but he 226 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 2: wasn't entirely right, and Ryan Rollins did a really good 227 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: job of getting into him. But this offense is a 228 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 2: little bit more fun to watch. I would say they're 229 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 2: passing more, they're relocating more, they're setting off ball screens more. 230 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 2: It's way more fun. But Brunson was hurt. Josh Hart 231 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 2: definitely does not look right either. He's one of nine 232 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 2: through from three so far in the season. He's playing 233 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 2: through it right now, but he doesn't look all that right. 234 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 2: Mitchell Robinson hasn't played a game yet. Yeah, you call it, 235 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 2: You're it's amazing. 236 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, I don't even know he was injured 237 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 3: to start this season. I gotta be completely honest. 238 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, because you think you think he would 239 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 2: out Karl Anthony Towns playing next to him and not 240 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 2: offensively but defensively. And Miles McBride didn't also didn't play 241 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 2: in this game. So they're missing guys, that's for sure. Yeah. 242 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: The Warriors crush the Clippers, just stifling defensive effort. A 243 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: very low scoring game here, especially early in this season, 244 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: We've seen some crazy scoring performances, both individually and from teams. 245 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: But the Warriors win. They controlled the game tk about 246 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: midway through the third quarter and ran up the score, 247 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: and the Warriors look awesome. Clippers are like one of 248 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: these weird like Juckal and Hyde teams. 249 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 3: They both had two garbage It's. 250 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 1: Opening night against the Jazz and now this one, and 251 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: then had some quality wins. 252 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 3: But yeah, where do you want to start in this game? 253 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 3: First game? Both teams scored under one hundred in the 254 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 3: NBA this season? Oh is it? Okay? 255 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 2: Yeah? 256 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 4: I mean obviously the first game that a team is 257 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 4: scored under eighty. Looks like two different sports out there. 258 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 4: The way Golden State plays ball, movement player, movement, assists, chaos. 259 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 4: When things get tough, they go to Jimmy Butler and 260 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 4: he settles things down. 261 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 3: I think he got maybe a little lucky. 262 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 4: They're in the third quarter hitting a couple of threes 263 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 4: and some tough shots. But that's a nice change up 264 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 4: for them to have after years of kind of just 265 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 4: being steph, can you carry us? To go to somebody 266 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 4: that can steady them is really huge for them. On 267 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 4: the other side, the Clippers look so slow. They only 268 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 4: play iso ball. Ten assists last night for the entire game. 269 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 4: That is a ridiculously low number. James Harden can have 270 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 4: ten asists in a game. But it feels like Tylo 271 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 4: is kind of searching out the right lineups to play. 272 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 4: We talked so much during the preseason about the versatility 273 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 4: they're gonna have. Bradley Beal has been out for a 274 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 4: couple of games. They've started Bogdanovic. He looks pretty bad 275 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 4: to start the season here. He's been very up and 276 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 4: down over the course of his career. I think it's 277 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 4: going to take time for the Clippers to figure out 278 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 4: who are the right combinations here, how we can get 279 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 4: enough shooting on the floor, how we can get enough 280 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 4: play making on the floor, because right now it looks 281 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 4: like ten guys who don't really know each other at all. 282 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 4: Your turn, my turn? How do they and any sort 283 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 4: of synergy. Tyleru is basically a fifty game winning coach 284 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 4: every single season, so I have confidence that they'll figure 285 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 4: it out in the middle of the season. That's kind 286 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 4: of how things have gone for the Clippers. You know, 287 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 4: every January we're talking about should we take the Clippers seriously? 288 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 3: I imagine it'll be the same thing once things come around. 289 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 3: But to start the season pretty. 290 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 2: Ugly, very ugly, super ugly. That second half was atrocious. 291 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: Now the Warriors were getting up into space and creating 292 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 2: some turnovers. The Clippers turned over five times in that 293 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 2: third quarter. But Tyleru needs some better play from guards. 294 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 2: Bugga mcdonovic literally yanked in this game, played nine minutes. No, 295 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 2: we can't play you anymore. It's unplayable. Chris Paul has 296 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 2: not looked like himself at all in this season. He's 297 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 2: averaging about fifteen minutes to play just super quiet in 298 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 2: comparison to what he did for the San Antonio Spurs 299 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 2: last year when he was starting beside Wenby, he was 300 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 2: really good. So what Tyler's going to have to do 301 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 2: is yank somebody from this rotation. They've got eleven guys 302 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 2: who are part of this rotation. Their average age is 303 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 2: thirty three, those eleven rotation type of guys. So I'm 304 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 2: just you know, I mean including the age because it 305 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 2: just feels like there's there's no way, I mean there 306 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 2: and there's too many guys, So I don't know who 307 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 2: it is. Obviously you mentioned Bials, He's only played in 308 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: half their games. But Chris Dunn couldn't do it. I mean, 309 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 2: he just had trouble passing the ball in this game. 310 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 2: He just did not look right. So the Warriors fight 311 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: level themselves was fantastic and they just they just took 312 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 2: it away from this team that couldn't do it themselves. 313 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 2: Like Curry was great. He was d enough hard and 314 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 2: made a great turnover from thirty feet from the basket 315 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 2: in that third quarter, while literally they almost didn't have 316 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 2: to score in the fourth quarter. That's how bad the 317 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 2: offense was. They literally they're literally destroying this thing. Yeah, 318 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 2: they looked they looked old. Unfortunately they're twenty ninth in pace. 319 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 2: I say that, but I know Tyler's you're right, he's 320 00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 2: going to faith on them. 321 00:14:58,800 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 322 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, which is hey, old guy, you're out. I don't 323 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 2: know if it's Chris Paul, but it's somebody that literally, hey, 324 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 2: old guy, you're out. 325 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 3: Old guy, you're hey, old guy, get out of here, 326 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 3: old guy you play. 327 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 328 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, they are an old squad, but they're just Yeah. 329 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: It's just the strange part is I mean, I slipped 330 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: it in the other day, was like Kawhi had that 331 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: an awesome game where we were like, oh, yeah, wow, 332 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: look really good there, and then you have these stinkers 333 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: and they got a couple of those couple of good performances. 334 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I agree with you guys. Even as 335 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: much as I hate the Clippers. There'll be a stretch 336 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: here where they rip off ten of eleven wins and 337 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: they'll be the talk of the town and everybody will 338 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: be like, well, I don't know, it might be the 339 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: Clippers year you go really far. It won't be, but 340 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: we will try and convince themselves. As for the Warriors, 341 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: they're four and one after facing a pretty tough first 342 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: five early wins over the Clippers, the Lakers, the Nuggets, 343 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: and the Grizzlies. I mean all four of those were 344 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: top what eight teams last year. They had a weird 345 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: loss to the Portland Trailblazers, gut smoked people were a 346 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: bit of a schedule loss. I think they were coming 347 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: off an overtime game and all of that. But and 348 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: the Blazers might be actually good, but great start, and 349 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: the Warriors just make all already a convoluted Western Conference, 350 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: you know, even messier in a way if they're going 351 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: to be this good. But they remind me a little 352 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: bit of the Bucks. Like you just said, you know, 353 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: if Janni's plays, they're a fifty win team. That's sort 354 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: of the same thing here with these guys, like if 355 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: Korean Jimmy and I mean Draymond to a lesser extent, 356 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: But if those two guys, the first guys play, they 357 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: are a fifty win team. They're good, They're really good. 358 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: But when will they miss time or when will they 359 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: even get them rest. Then again, these other guys are contributing, 360 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: which is nice to see. Oh yeah, all down the line, 361 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: and we'll get to Kaminga a little bit later in 362 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: the show because he's one of the early season surprises. 363 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: Yes, Steph super quiet game, back to back games he 364 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 2: had nineteen yesterday, sixteen the game before that. Still w's 365 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 2: so guys producing around him. 366 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 3: Who's the d. 367 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 4: Anthony Melton of this Warriors team. They started hot last 368 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 4: year too. 369 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 3: Yeah they did? They did. 370 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, what a weird year for them when you think 371 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: like they were super hot, then they were garbage. Then 372 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: they get Jimmy and they're really good again, and then 373 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: they get you know, the first round series win. I 374 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: don't know, is it is it well Will Richard or 375 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: maybe painting. The second has been solid. 376 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 4: Pods has been really good, came off the bench to night, 377 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 4: Quentin Post was really good. 378 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 3: Maybe Mosises Moody the. 379 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 4: New d Anthony Melton, he's having kind of it's been 380 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 4: literally five games. 381 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 3: He's had a great stretch of five. 382 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 2: Career. 383 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 3: No, he hasn't, but I think he's been really good. 384 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 4: They're actually getting good performances from the next generation of 385 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 4: the Warriors. Pods, Moody, and Kaminga are all playing really 386 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 4: solid to start the year. 387 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 2: Combo Melton, Yeah, Kuminga just staying in his role, not 388 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 2: trying to just dribble, dribble, dribble, just doing his thing 389 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 2: of cutting and getting his opportunities. Even if he didn't 390 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 2: have an efficient night, that's just important that he's doing 391 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 2: his thing and not taking the air out of the 392 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 2: ball and taking the life out of this Warriors team that, yeah, 393 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 2: they were. It is surprising to look back at that 394 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 2: Warriors team when d Anthony Melting was cooking that first month. 395 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 2: They're literally the number one seat. They're twelve and three 396 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 2: is what they started, So it's not surprising to see 397 00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 2: them start pretty well here. 398 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: It was a bit of a cupcake schedule if I 399 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: remember correctly, though, was it not last year? No idea 400 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,479 Speaker 1: like this is not that I would say, playing good 401 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 1: teams here anyway, What do you guys think of the 402 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: eleven to fifteen start for US? East Coast has pretty. 403 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 3: Late start and you got to open a new app? 404 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, because yeah, the first one here, at least for 405 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: US in Atlanta, we got Bucks Knicks. That's on NBC, 406 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: the actual NBC channel. But then this Coast to Coast 407 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: thing that they told us was going to happen is 408 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 1: the second game, that West Coast game. It's only on 409 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: Peacock for us. I believe it's on actual NBC out there. 410 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 3: It is. Yeah, but very late, start, way too late. 411 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 2: I even I ain't doing that. That's a more morning 412 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 2: it's a morning watch. Yeah, that's stupid late. I literally thought, 413 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 2: because the Dodgers are playing a home game, maybe they 414 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 2: just watch LA watching baseball as much as possible. 415 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: That's what the Raptors are doing right now. They're starting 416 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: their games earlier. They start again tonight at six thirty 417 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,120 Speaker 1: because of the Jay's play again. 418 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:01,919 Speaker 2: And then when the game's over, you just stay in, 419 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 2: stay in the arena and watch it on the Big 420 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 2: Jump as they're playing in l. 421 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 3: We weren't helped by it being a snooze of a 422 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 3: broadcast and a snooze of a first half. Yeah, yeah, 423 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 3: that's all I could take. 424 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 2: Oh, there's no way you could stay up through this game. 425 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 2: The second half got worse. 426 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: I'm generally I'm a first half man with these West 427 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: Coast games of importance. Yeah, you know, you know, once 428 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: you get to the playoffs's a whole different thing. But yeah, 429 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 1: watch the first half, then go to bed, catch a 430 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 1: second half early in the morning. But you're not wrong. 431 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: It was boring. It was very the eyelids were heavy. 432 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 1: I had a little bit of night Whill running through 433 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 1: my body. Crank it through the CYS. 434 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 4: If we would have been talking about NBC's presentation today 435 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 4: instead of after last week, it would not get as 436 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 4: high marks. 437 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 3: Let's just say that. Oh okay, it was not as 438 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 3: good last night. You mean in terms of the call 439 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 3: of the game. 440 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: Okay, okay, okay. 441 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 3: They did do the starting lineups though. 442 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's sensational. 443 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 4: We got to see the Warriors starting lineup. They didn't 444 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 4: get extended too late. Once again, they're still making it 445 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 4: a show. They're still making it a thing. Did we've 446 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 4: got Bob started to jump in? We got Bob Costas 447 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 4: setting up both the games. Yeah, that was like out 448 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 4: of nowhere. We weren't told that was happening. Yes, that 449 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 4: was fun. 450 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 2: It feels like an event for sure. Did you manage 451 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 2: to open the app? It feels like you're having struggle 452 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: struggling to open up. 453 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 4: I'm smooth with the apps, but like, look, it's nice 454 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 4: when I'm watching on YouTube TV. I can have the multiview. 455 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 4: I got the World Series on one, I got Bucks 456 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 4: Nicks on the other. Flip flop flip flop. There's reviews 457 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 4: in both sports now all the time, so it's great 458 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 4: to be able to watch two separate things. 459 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 3: But then I got to close it out and go 460 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 3: to the peacock. It sucks. We got hoops to jump 461 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 3: through to watch our favorite sport here. 462 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think kids figure it out, though, maybe this 463 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 2: US guys. Yeah, yeah, they do. 464 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 3: No, they don't name one they know. 465 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 2: How, Name one game that they've watched. 466 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,640 Speaker 3: Name one kid that watches. 467 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 2: They're kids that don't watch cable coverage anymore, that don't 468 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 2: have cable boxes. They understand how to work things with 469 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 2: the remotes, this whole app thing. Figure it out. I 470 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 2: hook up my monitor to my desk, my my computer, 471 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 2: boot boom, I'm watching on both boom bang, boom bang. 472 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 3: You're boom bang. You're not watching her main TV. Then 473 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 3: that's what you're saying. 474 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 2: What do you mean I'm not watching it? You are TV? 475 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 3: Well, your TV and big enough monitor? It's too enty two? 476 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 2: How big do you need your monster to be? You 477 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 2: need a monster? Wow? 478 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 3: I can't even read the player jersey numbers on a 479 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 3: screen that small. 480 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 2: Speaking I heard the audio better too. 481 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 3: It's great. 482 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 2: You should get up close to your TV. You hear 483 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 2: so many things. 484 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 1: If you're watching games, you're just like monitor. Sticking with 485 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 1: NBC for a second. We will get to the other 486 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: games from last night later on in this show when 487 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: we talk about like early season surprises. But Michael Jordan 488 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: addressed the topic of NBA players missing games in the 489 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: second installment of mj Insights to Excellence, which aired last night. 490 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: Beat between the games. Yes this was not a halftime thing, 491 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 1: so it's actually between the two games. Asked by Mike 492 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 1: Tico in his own house there what he thought of 493 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: the notion of load management, Jordan didn't hold back. He said, quote, well, 494 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: it shouldn't be needed first and foremost, you know, I 495 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 1: never wanted to miss a game because it was an 496 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 1: opportunity to prove and then went on to say a 497 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: lot more about load management, got some stories as well. 498 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 1: You know, it's another three to five minute clip here. 499 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: What'd you think of this one? TK and MJ's thoughts 500 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:31,439 Speaker 1: on load management? 501 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 4: Heard it all before, Yeah, could have predicted the exact 502 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 4: words he was going to say. It's my opportunity to 503 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 4: show up for that one guy who only gets to 504 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 4: see me play once he set it for thirty straight 505 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 4: years ago. 506 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 3: There wasn't a wrinkle though. 507 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 4: This was the first time I think he said it 508 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 4: wasn't just about showing up for the fans, it was 509 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 4: about proving that guy wrong, which felt way more real 510 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 4: to Michael Jordan than just saying, yeah, I like to 511 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 4: put on a show, but undeniably the guy played a 512 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 4: ton of games, and what's or more games? Yeah, that 513 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 4: is pretty incredible. So I just like that he threw 514 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 4: in the wrinkle about, Yeah, it's a little bit spiteful 515 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 4: of me. Don't want to go out there and rub 516 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 4: it in the face of whoever is cheering against me, 517 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 4: even though the opponents fans are cheering for Michael. 518 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 2: Jordan as well. 519 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 4: The other funny part I thought was when he was 520 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 4: talking about the structure of a day. You play basketball 521 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 4: in a game for three hours, you use the other 522 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 4: twenty one hours to get ready for the game. And 523 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 4: then he's like, though, I wasn't necessarily a guy who 524 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 4: was using all those twenty one hours, And Toriko's. 525 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 3: Like, you, you weren't doing that all the time, were you, Michael? 526 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 3: And He's like, yeah, you're right, you're right, But I'm 527 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 3: Michael Jordan. I don't need all twenty one hours. Some 528 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 3: of these fools do. So I I just smoked cigars 529 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 3: and played golf and gambled. That leads through twenty one hours. 530 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 2: Yea, yeah, would Michael Jordan play that many games? In 531 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 2: today's era where you get paid a bajillion dollars, things 532 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 2: are very different either way. I was surprised that initially, 533 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 2: as Tarriico's asking the question, Michael goes, I knew you 534 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 2: were going to ask me about that. So they didn't 535 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 2: run the questions exactly. That's what they didn't do a 536 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 2: pre interview of this. They didn't say, hey, we're asking 537 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 2: you about this at all. 538 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: So no, didn't need to because he probably has final 539 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 1: say on the clips if he really wants. 540 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, but he probably He also doesn't want to be 541 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 2: asked questions. He doesn't want to be asked right either 542 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 2: way that no, they're going to cut out the stuff 543 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 2: he doesn't want, there's no doubt about that. But that's 544 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,719 Speaker 2: why this is fine. It's Michael Jordan's so we can 545 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 2: say what he wants. He's a freaking god, so he 546 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 2: and and so getting Michael Jordan's name included in the 547 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 2: NBC broadcast included in all the press releases. Oh he's 548 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 2: going to be part of the broadcast. That's the win. 549 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 2: That doesn't really matter what he says here. It is 550 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 2: pretty I mean, it's all sort of okay. He said 551 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 2: that these clips are not going to do all that 552 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 2: well online. It's just like Trace said, he's been saying 553 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 2: this forever. There was nothing I thought. He added one 554 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 2: thing that I also thought was new in this whole 555 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 2: idea of load management. He said right at the end, 556 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 2: he sort of summed up on why he tried to 557 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 2: play all the time. Yeah, it was to respect the fans, 558 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 2: right put on the show again, heard it for thirty years. 559 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 2: The other one was making sure he stayed sharp, which 560 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:18,959 Speaker 2: I thought was cool, like physically and mentally. 561 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 1: But the third one I don't ever remember him saying. 562 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 1: And I think it's such an awesome point. He said, 563 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 1: I want our rhythm as a team to always be there. 564 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 1: It can disrupt that energy or excuse me, that synergy 565 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,239 Speaker 1: when maybe a star player as like himself is in 566 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: for a couple of games and out for a couple 567 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: of games and all that. I was like, oh, yeah, 568 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: I've never really heard anyone sort of make that point. 569 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: About the idea of load Management's always on the focus 570 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 1: of like obviously staying healthy, and the science says this 571 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 1: and all that, but it's like that can disrupt a 572 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 1: team when you think about it. 573 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 2: It's true, right, I will say that, I wonder how 574 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 2: the League office thinks about all this talk about load management. 575 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 2: I think they'd rather just not hear about it, stop 576 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 2: talking about it. And I will say that when guys 577 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 2: do sit as far as camaraderie goes and getting their 578 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 2: their needed rest, it's sort of January February March the 579 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 2: games after they've got enough camaraderie, it feels like, right, 580 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,160 Speaker 2: you guys aren't sitting now until they've got a good 581 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 2: twenty game groove going. So yeah, I think the NBA 582 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 2: is like, I please, please, Mike Tourrico stop asking about loadma. 583 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: Honestly right now they must be loving it. Please talk 584 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: about load management and not illegal gambling activities and potential 585 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 1: cap circumvention. 586 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 2: And stuff that. 587 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, right now. 588 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 2: MJ was not addressing that he would never be asked. 589 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 2: We'll get that in week eight. No way. 590 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: MRE did say, quote now, physically, if I can't do it, 591 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 1: then I can't do it. But I physically I can 592 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 1: do it, and I just don't feel like doing it. 593 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 1: That's a whole different lens. And I bring that up 594 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: because I don't know if you guys caught Vince t 595 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: macin Carmelo Anthony on the on the studio team on 596 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: the desk thank you talking about this clip. You know, 597 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: they addressed it as well. That was a little more 598 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 1: enlightening in a weird way because it was like these 599 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: guys did they were sort of the bridge between when 600 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 1: everybody tried to play and you sucked it up, maybe 601 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 1: you fought through injury and then started to come in 602 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 1: with the science of everything and like maybe you should 603 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: sick games for the. 604 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 3: Longevity of your career. 605 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: Like tam Mac was basically saying, I wish I had 606 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 1: I wish I did load management. I was when I 607 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: was carrying that load with the Orlando Magic, he said 608 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: specifically like six to seven years. But that was interesting. 609 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 3: He's the best of the three, Like I think he 610 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 3: sort of says he's. 611 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 4: Being honest about the way he approached things, and I 612 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 4: did like that he took it some type of way. 613 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,400 Speaker 4: When Maria Taylor goes He's like, Vince, you played eighty 614 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 4: plus games. 615 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 3: What two times? Mellow, you did it? Two times? T Mac? 616 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 3: You never did He's like, hey, why'd you have to 617 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 3: say like that? 618 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 2: Yeah? 619 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 4: I think he was really feeling some type of way 620 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 4: when she said that. But I thought that was pretty funny. 621 00:27:58,680 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 4: But yeah, T Mac is good. 622 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 3: T Mac is good. 623 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 2: It would Yeah, it would have benefited Tracy. It seems 624 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 2: like to play That's what he was saying. Yeah, it 625 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 2: seems like, yeah, Dwyane Wade has brought it up before. 626 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 2: Maybe I wouldn't have had to get that surgery right 627 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 2: before college, like it would it would be beneficial. I 628 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 2: suppose that was why they do it. 629 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: There was a funny part too, to see the clip 630 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: where Vit said something I forget how he worded it, 631 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: but like asking Mellow about what you how would you 632 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 1: have your load managed or something like that. It was like, 633 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 1: you know, they didn't know what he said pause or whatever, 634 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: but it was like a timeout it was called. It 635 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: was like giggling and stuff like that. I mean, we 636 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: were talking about load management. I guess that's going to 637 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: be said. 638 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 2: And one one thing they won't say is maybe we 639 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 2: should play fewer games. Maybe we shouldn't have eighty. 640 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 3: Two games for each team. That's not gonna that's not. 641 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 2: Gonna happen, but that would help. That would help literally, 642 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 2: you know, let's play like a a European basketball team 643 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 2: twice a week or other sports that would help. 644 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 3: They're not saying that though, other sports but not baseball. 645 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 3: Not baseball play every night and then they just take 646 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 3: three days off. 647 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: Well, let's hear what you think of MJ's recent little 648 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: clip here on load management and the NBC broadcast and 649 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: all that. 650 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 3: Those two games we talked about. 651 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 1: Do we also have the poll results on you honest 652 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: whether Yannis dance? 653 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 3: Sixty seven percent say. 654 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yeah, Okay, I'm in that camp. I gotta 655 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: be honest. 656 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 4: Hey, sixty seven percent of the Dusk says he can dance. Then, 657 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 4: but then the stream team says, google Yannis dancing on 658 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 4: a boat. 659 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 3: So I did, Oh he's just sitting there. Oh he's 660 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 3: sitting in dancing. It's my dad at a wedding.

Isn't ninety five 713 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: percent of dancing in your face? He's got a great face, 714 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: which he has a great emotive face. So yes, that 715 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: it was the Leela's theory of dancing that it was 716 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: all in the face, So that is true. 717 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 3: Then John is guarantee a great dancer. 718 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 4: Post show, I'm doing a deep dive, all right, I'm 719 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 4: gonna try and find every Yannis dancing. 720 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 3: I love it, possibly can I love it? 721 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 2: I wonder if he does the Greek dancing because he 722 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 2: did the spins when he did the double spin with 723 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 2: his hands up like this, Yeah, like the hands look like, oh, 724 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 2: I'm keeping these out of the pool. I don't want 725 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 2: to get them went. But I feel like he's got something. 726 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 2: He's got some Zibeki coo in them somewhere somewhere. 727 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: Did you see the one clip to go back to 728 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: the travel clip where he takes like it appears that 729 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: he takes six steps, yeah, and yeah, maybe maybe five 730 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 1: at the very least five because of the whole wind. 731 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 1: Does he actually have the ball in his hand after 732 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: that sort of first like sort of gather but oh boy, yeah, 733 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 1: that one is pretty blatant. He's mastered the gather rule, 734 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: pulled the gather rule. Some guys just know how to 735 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 1: exploit it, you know, like Harden was a guy who 736 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: was awesome at figuring out the ins and outs of 737 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: the gathered rule as well. In Giannis, right now, when 738 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 1: he's got ahead of steam, he needs one dribble from 739 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: half court to get to the rim. 740 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 3: With the way the game is called, yeah. 741 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 2: I think Reggie and Jamal Reggie Miller and Jamal Crawford 742 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: kind of held back from saying how many steps they 743 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 2: held back. They said, well, because he took the other one. 744 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 2: The other replay they showed was incredible two steps from 745 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 2: a three point line. 746 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 3: But it almost looks like. 747 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,719 Speaker 2: More because when he's gathering the ball. But they somebody, 748 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 2: somebody started speaking. I could hear watching it my twenty 749 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 2: two inch monitor. Right, I heard the one step, Yeah, 750 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 2: I heard I heard partial somebody started talking. But then 751 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 2: they said to themselves, I mean we're on NBC. Here, 752 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 2: there's a week number one. Maybe we don't pull this 753 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 2: out now. 754 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 3: He didn't call for a travel. 755 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 1: It was one of those underneath the rim where he's 756 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: like doing the honest like sort of little slide, a 757 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: little bit like his pivot foot. It did slide. I 758 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: mean half the time it doesn't get called. The odd 759 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 1: time it does. I mean it was a travel, but 760 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: you know nath Yeah, he does that a lot. 761 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 4: Anyway for travel. Last night playing in men's league, Wow, yeah, 762 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 4: I traveled, caught the ball, the free throw line did 763 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 4: a little. 764 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:28,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's bad. 765 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 3: Rest were going nuts last night. I'm actually going nuts. 766 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 4: Tried to give it to the other team, but we 767 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 4: smacked him. Seventeen point wins. 768 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: Are you you're in the playoffs? 769 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,799 Speaker 3: That was game one of the playoffs. Oh geez, here 770 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,359 Speaker 3: we go, one win at a time. All right, this 771 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 3: is great. So how many games left in theory to 772 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 3: win the whole thing? One game time? He won't even 773 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 3: look ahead. 774 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: See I tried to catch him, oh too, one time 775 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 1: for two more weeks. 776 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 3: Okay, good luck watch his feet. 777 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: All right, let's get into some NBA first week's surprises, 778 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 1: and again we'll sprinkle in some of the other games 779 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: from last night, I'm gonna chuck these at you guys 780 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: will talk them out. But my first big surprise is 781 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia seventy six Ers and the Chicago Bulls, both undefeated. 782 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,800 Speaker 1: We talked about the Bulls already, so let's focus on 783 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 1: the Sixers. They played last night. They looked a step 784 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: slow defensively for a good chunk of the game, and 785 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: then they came rolling back to tie it up and 786 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: get it into overtime against the Wizards and did beat them. 787 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: But Tyrese Maxi tasks averaging thirty seven point five points 788 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 1: per game through four games, there is nobody right now 789 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: in the league as fast as him at getting to 790 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: the hoop, paired with shooting the three ball on a 791 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: whole lot of attempts at a high consistency forty seven 792 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: percent from three on nearly ten attempts per game. I mean, 793 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: that's like, that's like super steph Curry numbers. With the 794 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: speed that he's showing and that size that Trey has 795 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 1: talked about, he's like seems to have bolked up a 796 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 1: little bit. 797 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,399 Speaker 3: Just an awesome start for this guy. 798 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's a lot of it is because VJ. 799 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 2: Edgecumb can take a lot of the pressure off him. 800 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 2: You can't just focus two three guys on him. Eyeballs 801 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 2: have to be on Edgecumb. That's fantastic stuff. But also 802 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:15,439 Speaker 2: Joel and Bid had a super quiet at twenty five 803 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 2: points in this game in twenty three minutes. There are 804 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 2: other guys to take pressure off him. Although it's just 805 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:27,720 Speaker 2: odd because it's all about maxi Uh and VJ. Edgecumbe 806 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 2: and there's other guys making a bajillion dollars on that 807 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 2: team and Embiid and Paul Georgian. Really they're not part 808 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 2: of the story at all here as they're unbeaten in 809 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 2: a particular game where they just got lucky in a 810 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,399 Speaker 2: way that this was the fourth quarter they were down 811 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 2: up or yeah, they're down double edgits, they were able 812 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 2: to come back. 813 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 1: Quinn Grimes was awesome down the stretch. He's what was 814 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:48,760 Speaker 1: the reason they got into overtime. 815 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 2: I thought, yeah, yeah, And as much as I say 816 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 2: it's about Maxie and Edgecumbe, Quinn Grimes has come through. 817 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 2: Grimes times is a thing that the broadcasters say. Kate 818 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 2: Scott says Grimes time, because if he really does come 819 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 2: through in big moments, I will. 820 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 3: Say, maybe this doesn't happen forever. They should have lost 821 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:05,839 Speaker 3: this game. 822 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 2: But the Turkish Adam Boda, he came through to big 823 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 2: five blocks. So they're getting contributions from a lot of 824 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 2: guys on the other side. What up with Adam Keith 825 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 2: with the washing Brian Keith, I call him Adam Keef, 826 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 2: Brian Keith the Wizard's head coach, allowing CJ. McCollum and 827 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 2: Chris Middleton to start taking these game winning shot opportunity 828 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 2: what is that? 829 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 3: Yeah? Oh yeah? 830 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 4: Or the last play they ran where Middleton just chucked 831 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 4: the ball trying to Christian late more than six seconds left. 832 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 2: Come on, this is this is the It's twenty twenty five. 833 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 2: Kids use apps and kids can play and kids can 834 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 2: play basketball. Did you in this particular game, Alex sr 835 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 2: was awesome? He was great? 836 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was so I think he's the Wizard's best 837 00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 1: player exactly he is. Yeah, yes, we figured it out. 838 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the discussion preseason who is the Wizard's 839 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 2: best player? And I thought, scoring wise, it's going to 840 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:01,919 Speaker 2: be CG. McCollum. But that's why I'm not a coach. 841 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 2: That's why I'm not Adam slash Brian Keith because I 842 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 2: would give CJ. McCollum the ball when really they should 843 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 2: be giving it to Alex Aar. 844 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 3: But Middleton did have a good look at the game winner. 845 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, I thought that was a fine look as 846 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 1: a fine look, but yeah, the reason they got back 847 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 1: was Grimes was hitting threes, getting huge steals, had a 848 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 1: huge block and they and then hit another three to 849 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 1: tie the game up at one twenty six. He was 850 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 1: great like he he just had the energy still going 851 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: whenever it was starting to slow down at the end 852 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: of a forty eight minute game. And then they got 853 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 1: back into it in overtime too. They gave up the 854 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: first five points and came back. But any thoughts on 855 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: the sixers here a TK. 856 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:38,399 Speaker 3: Maxi's leading the league in scoring right now. 857 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 4: Luca doesn't really qualify because he's only played a couple 858 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 4: of games and is out, but currently Maxi is second 859 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 4: in the league and three pointers, third in the league 860 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 4: in free throws. 861 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:48,800 Speaker 3: That's an impossible combination to stop. 862 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,240 Speaker 4: If you're fast like he is and you can shoot 863 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 4: threes like he does, how are you guarded. It's a 864 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 4: question that the league's going to have to figure out 865 00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 4: and edgecumb is doing a similar thing, being fast, great 866 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 4: athlete and ripping threes from outside as well. 867 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 3: I love a dem Bona. This guy is fun to watch. 868 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 4: He's got a block rate of twelve percent for reference, 869 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,879 Speaker 4: Wemby is leading the league, no surprise, thirteen point eight, 870 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,240 Speaker 4: so it's kind of similar. He's a super energy guy. 871 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,399 Speaker 4: He goes after every block. He had the big put 872 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 4: back dunk that sent him into overtime last night. But 873 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 4: he just makes plays. And he's such a different player 874 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 4: than Embiid. You know, Embiid plays slow, he requires the 875 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 4: ball on offense. He's not going to roll hard to 876 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,719 Speaker 4: the rim the way Bona does. So it's cool to 877 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:37,279 Speaker 4: have a change up at the center position. You can 878 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,720 Speaker 4: tell that the Sixers are built to be a fast 879 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 4: team right now, and anything they get from Embiid, anything 880 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,839 Speaker 4: they get from Paul George going forward is kind of 881 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 4: just gravy. 882 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 3: I think, yeah, it is amazing. 883 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 2: They've got a new one in Tyrese Maxey and kind 884 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 2: of a two with v jge Coumpany. Well, see then 885 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 2: McCain is coming back to McCain is not playing was 886 00:39:58,480 --> 00:39:59,280 Speaker 2: really good. 887 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 1: For fifteen games year. He gets forgotten. 888 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it feels like Adam Bona is a new player. 889 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 2: They had him last year, but it feels like EuroBasket 890 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:07,919 Speaker 2: had some sort of effect on him. He does play 891 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 2: for Turkey. He looks super good. The Tyres Maxie thing 892 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 2: is different than it was last year because I think 893 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 2: of v Jaskin, but also Max. He's he's out of 894 00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 2: this world right now. He's he played forty seven minutes 895 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:22,959 Speaker 2: in this one. He's averaging forty three minutes per game. 896 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 2: He's taking the most shots in the NBA and he's 897 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 2: shooting threes at forty seven percent. That's got to come 898 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 2: back to earth at some point. I kill some degree. 899 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: Wait for Paul George to return to this team and. 900 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 3: Ruin it because they won't even be Paul George's fault. 901 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 3: I'm telling you right now, he's gonna come back. Maybe 902 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 3: he looks completely. 903 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: Fine, but like they are on a heater right now, 904 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 1: Maxis specifically and the rook they're gonna hit walls. It's 905 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:48,840 Speaker 1: they're not gonna win some of these games they shouldn't 906 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: be winning to begin with, and everyone's gonna be. 907 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 3: Like, God, damn it, Paul, it's all your fault. I 908 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 3: say it. Now I know what's gonna happen, and I'm 909 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 3: gonna laugh what it does. 910 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, but he's still gonna be a massive upgrade over 911 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 4: Justin at words and trended lot and a lot for 912 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 4: that's what he needs to replace. Yeah, basically because a 913 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 4: lot of these guys, they're still getting shots that end 914 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 4: up being like. 915 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 3: A Jabbari Walker shot. Yeah, right, Like, yeah, if. 916 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 4: That's going to Paul George, even if he's not all 917 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,360 Speaker 4: NBA Paul George, that's a better result. 918 00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 919 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 2: And I don't think pj PG wants to be the 920 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 2: number one guy anymore, so I think they had that 921 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 2: positive going for him. He'll just come in and fit in. 922 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 2: But they will lose some games, Yeah. 923 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 1: And people will say it's all your fault. It's gonna 924 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,840 Speaker 1: be like, why I didn't even do anything? Stop podcasting again, Yeah, exactly, 925 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 1: all right. Next early season surprise, Jonathan Kaminga and the 926 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: Warriors have fallen back in love. That's the surprise because 927 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,399 Speaker 1: he's continuing to change the narrative around him. Through five games, 928 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: he's averaging career highs across the board sixteen point two 929 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,879 Speaker 1: points per game, seven point four rebounds, three point four 930 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:50,240 Speaker 1: assists a very high true shooting percentage. It's around sixty 931 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: four to sixty five. You already brought it up a 932 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:54,879 Speaker 1: little bit. Tasks in the game last night, even though 933 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 1: it's sort of a quiet game. He's never rebounded like this, 934 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: He's never probably passed like this, He's never defended like this, 935 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:06,800 Speaker 1: just like actually playing a role in this Curry centric 936 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:08,360 Speaker 1: not even Curry centric. Of course you should get the 937 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: bullet Curry all the time, but you know they're always 938 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: moving and stuff like that. He's found his sort of 939 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:14,720 Speaker 1: spot here and curR is like, yeah, that's your starting spot, man, 940 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: let's go. So this is a bit of a surprise. 941 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 1: We weren't sure how this was going to go. After 942 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 1: the contract dispute. 943 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 4: They bought into him and he's buying in back. They said, 944 00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 4: you're a starter. You're playing thirty minutes a night. That 945 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 4: has never happened for Jonathan Kaminga unless it was due 946 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 4: to injuries and they needed somebody. So kudos to him 947 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 4: for figuring out how to fit in around Curry, Draymond 948 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 4: and Jimmy, because that was a big question mark. If 949 00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 4: you're playing Draymond and Jimmy as many minutes as they play. 950 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,800 Speaker 4: How does Kaminga fit in when he's not really a shooter, 951 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 4: he's not really a ball mover. His playmaking is better 952 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 4: this year. He's hitting the glass this year, and he's 953 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,359 Speaker 4: not short circuiting as many possessions going for his mid 954 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 4: range jumpers. This has been exactly what the Warriors were 955 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:56,239 Speaker 4: looking for in Jonathan Kaminga. If he played like this 956 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 4: to start his career, it wouldn't have even been a 957 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 4: question that they signed him to a contract over the summer. 958 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a fair question to ask how long 959 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:07,799 Speaker 2: this will last because it comes a time where they 960 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 2: may have to deal them at some point if he 961 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 2: wants to be the number one guy. And yes, he's 962 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 2: fitting in perfectly. I think the key is they're playing 963 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:19,720 Speaker 2: so many guys and playing Steph only twenty six minutes 964 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 2: last night, that he can go with the second unit 965 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 2: and get a shot here or get a shot there. 966 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 2: He was, you know, he's still getting his shots, So 967 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 2: I think that's it's a nice. 968 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:30,720 Speaker 3: Bout still getting his shots. 969 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: But he has greatly cut back on those mid range 970 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 1: jumpers that he was actually brutal at. Last year, he 971 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 1: ranked among the league's least efficient shooters. From short mid range. 972 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: We're talking like that four to fourteen foot range, and 973 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,360 Speaker 1: it counted for a decent percentage of his shot, so 974 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: it was like thirty five thirty six percent. So he's 975 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: like and he wasn't shooting them well. So to like 976 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 1: scale back on those type of shots, especially when you're 977 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: playing with Curry, Like, any shot Curry is going to take, 978 00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 1: it's going to better than that one, sorry, man. And 979 00:43:58,280 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: I think he's starting to figure that out. But it's 980 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,799 Speaker 1: great point about him building up his trade value here too, 981 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 1: because we just thought it, well, he's gonna be a 982 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 1: traded as immediately when he can be, and maybe it 983 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 1: will be a question now if they have an incredible 984 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:10,360 Speaker 1: record and he's continues to play like this. 985 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 3: It's good for everybody. If Jonathan Kaminga is good. 986 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:14,839 Speaker 4: It's good for the Warriors team right now to get 987 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 4: some wins early in the season because we know the 988 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:19,840 Speaker 4: Western Conference is going to be tight. Every single win matters. 989 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 4: That's good for the Warriors from a personnel standpoint. They 990 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 4: can keep him if they want to, or another team 991 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:26,839 Speaker 4: can look at it and say, yeah, we could take 992 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 4: Jonathan Kminga. We still think he has twenty point per 993 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 4: game potential. But he's shown he can play team basketball 994 00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 4: as well. So everybody thought that the situation for Kaminga 995 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 4: is good. If you're playing around Steph Curry, there's gonna 996 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 4: be easy shots out there. 997 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 3: Take the easy ones. 998 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,279 Speaker 4: Don't drive into a ton of people, have no plan, 999 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 4: Just go up in the air and hope your athleticism 1000 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,799 Speaker 4: wins out. That was another problem for Kaminga. It's good 1001 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:49,920 Speaker 4: for john free throws, not always good for getting a 1002 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 4: good shot. But he seems to have matured a little 1003 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 4: bit as a player. 1004 00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:54,880 Speaker 3: I guess those clips that his agent was putting out 1005 00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 3: were true. 1006 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:58,879 Speaker 2: The clips are where he's running the pick and roll 1007 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:02,919 Speaker 2: and looking aweso wearing a back of its hat. Listen, 1008 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 2: I'm a clips man too, I'm a modern day man. 1009 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:09,879 Speaker 2: To Jonathan, Kaminga isn't showing the same clips that the bad, 1010 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 2: the bad clips of last year where he goes into 1011 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 2: dribble mode and other guys are Steph is waving his 1012 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:19,320 Speaker 2: hands saying hello, and he goes into the mid range. 1013 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:25,880 Speaker 2: I didn't check the dribbles per shot that stat, but 1014 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 2: Kaminga has definitely reduced that part of his game. That 1015 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:30,800 Speaker 2: being said that you mentioned the two path of the 1016 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,400 Speaker 2: Golden State Warriors looks good because the young guys look good. 1017 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 2: When we were talking about them earlier, I will say 1018 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 2: the front office is probably thinking we can turn this 1019 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 2: guy into a bunch of things and to get our 1020 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:46,239 Speaker 2: our next path going. So that's again our next path 1021 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 2: going to win a title, well to win a title, yeah, 1022 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 2: to get a draft pick or whatever. I mean. If 1023 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 2: somebody wants to give up for kaminga then that's part 1024 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,360 Speaker 2: of it too. We shall see. 1025 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:01,479 Speaker 1: The Miami Heat lead the league in points per game 1026 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 1: right now is an early season surprise. They scored one 1027 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 1: hundred and forty four points last night in a win 1028 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:10,760 Speaker 1: over the Hornets and Himey Hawkes Junior, who is having 1029 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: a huge bounce back season. He scored twenty of his 1030 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 1: twenty eight in the first half, but through four games 1031 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 1: the he'd have scored one hundred and twenty one, one 1032 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 1: hundred and forty six, one hundred and fifteen, and one 1033 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,400 Speaker 1: hundred and forty four points respectively. They naturally lead the 1034 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 1: NBA in points per game, like I said, averaging over 1035 00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty one right now, top five in 1036 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 1: field goals made field goal percentage three pointers made, three 1037 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 1: point percentage assists and Trey. This is a team that's 1038 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 1: coming off three consecutive bottom ten offenses, so they're unlocked 1039 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 1: right now. 1040 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:40,400 Speaker 3: They're unlocked right now. Buy it. 1041 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:45,400 Speaker 4: I buy it for right now. They look way different. 1042 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,320 Speaker 4: They're first in pace right now. They've been twenty seventh. 1043 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 4: They're lower in pace every year since the twenty nineteen 1044 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:54,879 Speaker 4: twenty season. Completely different. They are a top five fast 1045 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 4: break team. They're running on missus, they're running on makes. 1046 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 4: That's juice in their offense right now. They basically don't 1047 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:02,759 Speaker 4: run pick and roll. If khalil Ware is in, they'll 1048 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 4: run a pick and roll, but otherwise it is just 1049 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 4: moved the ball side to side, elbows up, side to side. 1050 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 4: Maybe that's what Yannest does it Addy no handoffs either. 1051 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 4: That used to be a huge part of the offense 1052 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 4: for the Miami Heat. A lot of that was Bam 1053 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 4: and Duncan. Bam looks better. He's shooting threes, no problem. 1054 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 4: He catches it and he shoots it. 1055 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:22,879 Speaker 3: Not a pump fake. Oh I'm open. 1056 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 4: Maybe I'll take this. Three more free throws for him 1057 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 4: as well, fewer mid rangers. He's playing a more efficient game. 1058 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:30,359 Speaker 4: I saw Zach Low talking about it. 1059 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 2: Though. 1060 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:32,880 Speaker 4: We'll see if this holds up, because this is exactly 1061 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,360 Speaker 4: what the Grizzlies did at the start of last season. 1062 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 3: This is a unique NBA offense. 1063 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,560 Speaker 4: Pick and roll is like the basis of NBA offense, 1064 00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:44,000 Speaker 4: and they don't run pick and roll. Eventually, the scouting 1065 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 4: report will get out and they'll say all they're doing 1066 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 4: is passing it side to side time and time again, 1067 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 4: and then it won't work quite as well. But right 1068 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,720 Speaker 4: now it's catching people off guard. The speed they're playing 1069 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 4: with has been a huge advantage for them. They're playing 1070 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 4: to their strengths because they do have some decent athletes 1071 00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 4: yeah on the team, So I like the look of 1072 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,799 Speaker 4: the heat feel fresher than they have in the past 1073 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 4: couple of seasons, even in the Jimmy Butler era. Do 1074 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 4: I think they'll lead the league in points per game 1075 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 4: this season, No, but I think they'll finish in the 1076 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 4: top half of the league. 1077 00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:14,880 Speaker 2: It helped boost the point total because the Charlotte Hornets 1078 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 2: flashback for me, looked like last year. It's just allowing 1079 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:20,239 Speaker 2: them to do whatever they want that he did whatever 1080 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,000 Speaker 2: they wanted in his game. They're running up and down 1081 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:24,280 Speaker 2: the are the things that might change. Bam might stop 1082 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 2: shooting those threes. I don't want to flash back to 1083 00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 2: the Anthony Anthony Davis days of Wow, I'm a three 1084 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 2: point shooter in the bubble. But maybe it just comes 1085 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,799 Speaker 2: back to earth. He's shooting six threes a game by far, 1086 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:37,240 Speaker 2: the most in his NBA career, so that could change. 1087 00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 2: Will Tyler Hero jump in and be okay with it 1088 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:43,800 Speaker 2: and not create on his own? That's a fair question. 1089 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:47,399 Speaker 2: I do like what Eric Spolstra is doing getting these guys. Yeah, 1090 00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 2: sped up, no doubt. Also moving Nikola Yovich to the 1091 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 2: bench because he wasn't the ball mover, the quick ball 1092 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 2: mover that they needed. But yeah, everybody else buying in. 1093 00:48:57,120 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 2: Wiggy Larson started last night. Yeah, no Doorman in this game. 1094 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 2: Norman pal who's a machine so far hees out. But yeah, 1095 00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:11,680 Speaker 2: your hakass contributing. Simoni Fontecio shooting fifty five percent from three. 1096 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 2: Oh baby off the bench. But we shall see on Thursday. 1097 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 2: Really that's their test. Their next game is Heat Spurs 1098 00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 2: here we go, so that should be that should be 1099 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:21,839 Speaker 2: a full one. 1100 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, but great, great start for the Miami Heat. All right, 1101 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 1: next one twenty twenty five rookie classes living up to 1102 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 1: the hype. We have eight NBA rookies currently averaging over 1103 00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:33,359 Speaker 1: ten points per game, so one, two three in terms 1104 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 1: of picks they're delivering now, Flags struggle in a couple 1105 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:36,879 Speaker 1: of games. 1106 00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:38,720 Speaker 3: He's struggling to shoot. He's shooting thirty eight percent. 1107 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 1: But he's had an impact out there. I mean, it's 1108 00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 1: everybody sees. It's pretty obvious why he went number one. 1109 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:44,320 Speaker 1: Dylan Harper looks to be a star in the making, 1110 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:45,919 Speaker 1: poised filling up the box score. 1111 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:46,319 Speaker 3: And then VJ. 1112 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 1: Edgecumb can't stop talking about him. He's averaging still twenty 1113 00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:51,280 Speaker 1: three points per game. After a bit of a quiet 1114 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 1: night last night. Then you got Cedric Coward, Trey Johnson, 1115 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,440 Speaker 1: khon Ka Nipple, they're over fifteen points per game. We 1116 00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:00,720 Speaker 1: got two Pelicans rookies in Fears and Queen, they're also 1117 00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:02,959 Speaker 1: over ten points per game. And then other guys maybe 1118 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 1: not scoring as much but have looked good. Calc Brenner, 1119 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 1: Walton Clinton Junior, Igor de demon Is Okay, will Richard CMB. 1120 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 1: So it's only an awesome Drivet class so far. Tray 1121 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:15,280 Speaker 1: through a week in a bit. 1122 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 4: I gotta say Cooper's not living up to the hype. Now, 1123 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 4: I actually think he's been that good. He's had one 1124 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,320 Speaker 4: good game so far. Like you mentioned, thirty eight percent 1125 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,840 Speaker 4: from the field, twenty seven percent from three. I feel 1126 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:27,359 Speaker 4: like most of his baskets have come in transition, which 1127 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 4: makes sense. He's a transition player. Ten assists to eight turnovers, 1128 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 4: only four steals and two blocks. He's had two scoreless 1129 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:37,400 Speaker 4: haves in four games. You six percentage right now, twenty percent. 1130 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 4: That's Aaron Wiggins and Andrew Wiggins level. That's DeAndre Ayton level. 1131 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,799 Speaker 4: Buddy healed. This is play finisher level, not guy who 1132 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,440 Speaker 4: is the main creator out there. He's still the Rookie 1133 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,840 Speaker 4: of the Year favorite on Fan Duel, but his odds 1134 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 4: are down to minus one oh five after starting the 1135 00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 4: season minus one ninety five compared to VJ. Edgecomb, who 1136 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:56,719 Speaker 4: was a plus ten or a plus one thy ten 1137 00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 4: to one. Now he's a plus one thirty five. Edgecomb 1138 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 4: is flying up. Yeah, where Flag looks like he's playing 1139 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 4: out a position. It feels like Kevin Durant playing the 1140 00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 4: two for the Seattle SuperSonics. When we knew this guy 1141 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,640 Speaker 4: was going to be a forward, Cooper Flag is not 1142 00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:11,239 Speaker 4: a point guard. He needs a point guard to get 1143 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,040 Speaker 4: him easy baskets. You're not giving an eighteen year old 1144 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 4: the ball and expecting him to be an efficient player, 1145 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 4: and he hasn't looked like an efficient player. So I 1146 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:19,920 Speaker 4: actually don't think he's living up to the hype. I 1147 00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 4: think everybody else from two to I guess thirteen kind 1148 00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 4: of is. 1149 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:24,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1150 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,799 Speaker 4: I'd love to see Noah see play. Only lottery pick 1151 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 4: who hasn't played a minute yet. 1152 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:29,520 Speaker 3: Wow, he hasn't even seen the floor. 1153 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 4: I mean, the Bulls are undefeated, so it's hard to 1154 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:33,400 Speaker 4: get into the lineup, but I'd. 1155 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 3: Love to see him play. Yeah. But yeah, Cooper's he's 1156 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 3: just been okay. 1157 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 4: I think it's been like if you told anybody this 1158 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 4: was his first week in the league and say, huh, 1159 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:42,840 Speaker 4: this guy. 1160 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:43,279 Speaker 3: Went number one. 1161 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:46,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, he wasn't drafted as a point guard. So that's 1162 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,360 Speaker 2: thrown him off. I think a big, big part of 1163 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 2: it to be off the ball a little bit so 1164 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,640 Speaker 2: he doesn't have to run every single possession. I think 1165 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:57,719 Speaker 2: that's a huge part of it. That's how these non 1166 00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:01,080 Speaker 2: point guards start in a point guard I think it's expected. 1167 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:04,239 Speaker 2: When Jason Kidd did throw Jennis den goopo into the 1168 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 2: point forward role. He struggled to start. It was not 1169 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:11,799 Speaker 2: him And that's what we're seeing with Cooper Flag. He 1170 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 2: had a buddy at college to run every single possession. 1171 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:19,279 Speaker 2: This is different. They're really throwing them into the fire. 1172 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,480 Speaker 2: So I know we talked to start Dangelo Russell. Yeah, 1173 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 2: they're points ridiculous not to play a point guard with them. 1174 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:27,440 Speaker 2: I know we praised him after dude, Jason Kidd is 1175 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 2: a point guard. 1176 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the strangest part of the whole thing. He 1177 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:32,799 Speaker 1: should know more than anyone, But. 1178 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:36,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, does he want the narrative to say that good 1179 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,719 Speaker 2: coach man. He was so smart putting Cooper Flag in 1180 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:42,799 Speaker 2: as the starting point guard just like that. It is 1181 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:45,360 Speaker 2: strange because I thought that's what they got Daniel Russell for, 1182 00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:49,200 Speaker 2: and we would see Cooper's Flag's numbers be far more 1183 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 2: efficient and better if he was off the ball, because 1184 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 2: he's that good and because they don't have Kyrie Irving. 1185 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 2: I think Cooper Flag could handle it even if he 1186 00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,840 Speaker 2: wasn't starting every single possession, even if he did a 1187 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,879 Speaker 2: little a little more stepf stuff in that you give 1188 00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:07,719 Speaker 2: it to Draymond to bring it up just run off 1189 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:09,480 Speaker 2: the ball. You know, we don't got to go back 1190 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:13,840 Speaker 2: to Mark Jackson. That's why it is a little surprising. 1191 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:16,320 Speaker 2: He did have the one good game, but again I 1192 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 2: guess the raptors. Yeah, and I thought that's when he 1193 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:20,279 Speaker 2: didn't have to bring it up. You're right, it was 1194 00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 2: a lot was in transition and when he was off 1195 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:23,080 Speaker 2: the ball in transition. Yeah. 1196 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's fantastic. He should be off the ball. He's 1197 00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 3: a good cutter. 1198 00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,360 Speaker 4: Like he also struggled at the beginning of his duke tenure. 1199 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 4: He was getting his feet under him, but he had 1200 00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:33,279 Speaker 4: a point guard who eventually was setting him up in 1201 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:35,160 Speaker 4: the long run. Like we've said, it's going to pay 1202 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:36,800 Speaker 4: off getting all these on ball reps. 1203 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 3: He's going to be a good creator. But is he 1204 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:43,439 Speaker 3: going to be a Luca Lebron James Harden gigantic guy 1205 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 3: who's making plays for everybody. I don't know. 1206 00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 4: He could still average twenty five to thirty a game 1207 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:51,319 Speaker 4: not doing that, but as an eighteen year old, he's 1208 00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 4: not cut out to be the point guard for this team. 1209 00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:55,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. Maybe kid is just saying he'll be our point 1210 00:53:55,760 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 2: forward later on this year, our secondary playmaker. When Kyrie 1211 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:03,560 Speaker 2: his back, so I guess he's getting him reps. But 1212 00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 2: it is a little strange because Dangelis is a solid 1213 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:09,240 Speaker 2: player period, although some of these guys who aren't solid. 1214 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 2: You mentioned Noah Sangay, we haven't seen Ace Bailey do 1215 00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:14,239 Speaker 2: a lot. He's coming off the bench. 1216 00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:17,919 Speaker 1: He's been like sick, hasn't he That's what they said, Yeah, 1217 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:19,319 Speaker 1: he missed time for sure. 1218 00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:23,160 Speaker 2: I saw he's not doing much. Austin Ange basically said 1219 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:27,839 Speaker 2: we're protecting him, which is his term for why he's 1220 00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:31,520 Speaker 2: coming off the bench. And Young Hanson hasn't been young Hanson. 1221 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:33,640 Speaker 2: Oh no, he hasn't been young. 1222 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,120 Speaker 1: He's been pretty bad in the clips I've seen two 1223 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 1: more for you. 1224 00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 4: Speaking of bad, hold On, I did want to say 1225 00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:44,480 Speaker 4: Kank Nipple looks like everything that people said he was 1226 00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:46,960 Speaker 4: going to be. Plays really Savvy's sixteen points per game 1227 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,800 Speaker 4: right now, he's shooting fifty three percent from three. That'll 1228 00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 4: probably go down, but he is a shooter. I also 1229 00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:54,520 Speaker 4: would say he's not a white guy. That's a pink guy. 1230 00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:57,960 Speaker 4: That guy looks like a ham. 1231 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:03,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can see their face. It face, he's got 1232 00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 2: a face. 1233 00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 4: He's gonna be one of the biggest, Like comes back 1234 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,720 Speaker 4: from the All Star Breaking You're like, wha, I got tanned. 1235 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 3: I don't know if you can tan though burnt? Yeah 1236 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:16,359 Speaker 3: yeah he might as he should. Uh. 1237 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:17,840 Speaker 1: Well, we can speak a little bit more about the 1238 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:19,560 Speaker 1: Hornets you want, because my next one here. 1239 00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:23,959 Speaker 3: Is the bad teams are good question mark. 1240 00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,319 Speaker 1: Now, I think this one was hitting better going into 1241 00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:28,799 Speaker 1: last night than some of the results after last night. 1242 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,879 Speaker 1: But the Jazz are two and one, and they are 1243 00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:35,760 Speaker 1: one Sabonis put back away from being undefeated. The Hornets 1244 00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 1: are now two and two. It sucks that Brandon Miller 1245 00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: is out of the lineup right now. They got punked, 1246 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:42,839 Speaker 1: like we said, against the Heat last night. And even 1247 00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:45,719 Speaker 1: the Wizards now they're one in three. Should have been 1248 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:47,360 Speaker 1: two and two. They should have won that game against 1249 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:50,240 Speaker 1: the Sixers. But they're they're like I at least enjoy 1250 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 1: watching them a lot more than I did last year. 1251 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:54,399 Speaker 1: So they're like a scrappy little bunch I think here. 1252 00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:55,759 Speaker 1: So like some of the worst teams, like the Nets 1253 00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 1: are garbage, the Nets are gonna be the worst team. 1254 00:55:58,560 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 3: That bad team is bad. 1255 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. I played the Spurs pretty well. It went down 1256 00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:04,560 Speaker 2: to the wire almost they got back into it. You're right, 1257 00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:05,359 Speaker 2: otherwise they've suck. 1258 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:06,240 Speaker 3: But what do you think of those. 1259 00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:08,800 Speaker 1: Three teams I threw out you there, the Jazz, the Hornets, 1260 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:10,759 Speaker 1: and even the Wizards despite the one and three record. 1261 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:14,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, Keishawn George of the Washington Wizards, along with other 1262 00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:18,680 Speaker 2: guys on that team, they've they've impressed. There's been a 1263 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:21,880 Speaker 2: bunch of guys in the Utah Jazz they've impressed, Clayton 1264 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,759 Speaker 2: coming from Florida to run things and times for their 1265 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:28,399 Speaker 2: second units. They're deep. Will Hardy has gotten them going. 1266 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:32,320 Speaker 2: Brian Slash Adam Keith has gotten the Wizards going. I 1267 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 2: have been impressed. I don't care. Brooklyn does stink, but 1268 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 2: I watch them and sometimes I say, Okay, this is 1269 00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:42,239 Speaker 2: all right. Sometimes it's the opposite. Put you're right, you know, 1270 00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 2: in general, overall the bad teams are acceptable. 1271 00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 4: Right. 1272 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 3: Teams are enjoyable to watch. I will say that. 1273 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 4: And Brooklyn, even though they're bad, they've got just the 1274 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 4: perfect tank commanders and Cam Thomas and Michael Porter Jr. 1275 00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 4: They have been as expect did this season. They shoot 1276 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:04,279 Speaker 4: the ball every single time that touches their hands. It's 1277 00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 4: just a matter of who gets their hands on it first, 1278 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:09,239 Speaker 4: camera or MPJ LaMelo ball is good. By the way, 1279 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:11,640 Speaker 4: A lot of people like to hate on LaMelo Ball. 1280 00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:14,240 Speaker 4: He takes some ridiculous shots. He took some ridiculous shots 1281 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:17,040 Speaker 4: last night. He'll score an incredible basket going to the hoop, 1282 00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 4: and you're like, just go to the hoop every time. 1283 00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 4: You're quick and big and you can finish inside. And 1284 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:24,280 Speaker 4: then he'll take a step back for no reason. But 1285 00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 4: he's also averaging twenty six eight nine and a half, 1286 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 4: shooting forty percent from three, and taking ten threes. He's 1287 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:33,800 Speaker 4: a great passer, he's a great defensive playmaker, and he 1288 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 4: shoots a high volume of threes. LaMelo is like an 1289 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:39,760 Speaker 4: elite offensive player. But he's a little bit like Westbrook 1290 00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:42,160 Speaker 4: in that the dumb things he does stick out so 1291 00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:44,600 Speaker 4: much that you're like, why are you doing that? He's 1292 00:57:44,600 --> 00:57:46,720 Speaker 4: doing less dumb things now when he's on the court. 1293 00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:48,440 Speaker 4: The Hornets are fun to watch. 1294 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:50,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's well said. 1295 00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:52,960 Speaker 3: Again. I'm really bummed out with the Brandon Miller injury. 1296 00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 3: Here shoulder. 1297 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,520 Speaker 1: I guess right this one. Like he was looking solid, 1298 00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:58,200 Speaker 1: he was back. It was like, nice to see him again. 1299 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of his and he's now out. 1300 00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 1: I don't even know what the like diagnosis is with him. 1301 00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:04,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is a long term thing. 1302 00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 3: He's getting a second opinion, that's right. 1303 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:07,920 Speaker 1: Well that's the last thing I read, which is never 1304 00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:10,760 Speaker 1: really a good sign. That means the first opinion was 1305 00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 1: probably like, oh bad in my that's how I read it. 1306 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, of course you wouldn't get like second opinion 1307 00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:18,200 Speaker 4: if you didn't like if you liked what they said. 1308 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:20,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, so what are they saying you need surgery? 1309 00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:20,960 Speaker 3: You need this? Yeah? 1310 00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 4: But what if he goes to a second opinion, they're like, 1311 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 4: you don't need surgery, and that guy's right, You're right. 1312 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:27,040 Speaker 3: That's why you get a second opinion. 1313 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 1: Jesus, get a third while you're at it. 1314 00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 4: Keep asking until they say you can play. They need 1315 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:33,520 Speaker 4: that guy on the court, or do they they got 1316 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:34,240 Speaker 4: kanker nipple. 1317 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 2: We saw that last year with Mark Williams. He got 1318 00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:41,240 Speaker 2: a bunch of opinions. Wasn't good. You can play, but 1319 00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 2: sometimes you're hurt. And hopefully for Brandon Miller because he 1320 00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 2: missed so much Latin most so much time last year. 1321 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,680 Speaker 1: God, yeah, I didn't see him since like January. 1322 00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the worrisome part is that it's just it's 1323 00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:52,440 Speaker 2: the chronic thing. 1324 00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:56,360 Speaker 4: How about this as an early season surprise. The bad 1325 00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:58,440 Speaker 4: teams are not the teams we thought were going to 1326 00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:00,080 Speaker 4: be bad, because they're still bad teams out there. The 1327 00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:02,840 Speaker 4: Suns and the Kings, they're both bad. The Sons have 1328 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,440 Speaker 4: trailed by twenty plus in all four of their games. 1329 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 4: The only team they beat it was the Kings. Did 1330 00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:11,160 Speaker 4: you watch the end of the game last night? Kings Thunder, 1331 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:15,280 Speaker 4: King's Thunder. Oh yeah, baby, another clutch game for the Thunder. 1332 00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 3: Amazing. We're gonna talk about them here in just a second. 1333 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 4: But if you go and watch on the NBA's YouTube channel, 1334 00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,800 Speaker 4: they do like wild finishes or whatever they give you 1335 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 4: the last five minutes between the Thunder and Kings. They 1336 00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:31,880 Speaker 4: could have called this one Demonta Simonis low lights. They 1337 00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:36,280 Speaker 4: went at him every single time he got out, hustled 1338 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 4: for offensive rebounds, almost every single shot, took a three, 1339 00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:43,680 Speaker 4: barely hit the rim. He looked like a cone out there. 1340 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 4: He was the reason the Kings blew this game in 1341 00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:46,919 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter. 1342 00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:49,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, he should go get a second opinion on his injury, 1343 00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:52,000 Speaker 1: and that doctor might say you should not be playing, 1344 00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 1: because that's how he appears. 1345 00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:53,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1346 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:56,000 Speaker 1: I mean he was banged up right, yeah, and I 1347 00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:57,760 Speaker 1: think he came back to try and help this team. 1348 00:59:57,800 --> 01:00:01,520 Speaker 1: And he looks like molasses. Yeah, every loose ball, like 1349 01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:02,960 Speaker 1: I said, every board at town. I mean he still 1350 01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:04,800 Speaker 1: gets numbers obviously on the like he probably had like 1351 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 1: eighteen rebounds last night, but down the stretch that was 1352 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 1: bad for sure. Final one here though, okc's Aj Mitchell 1353 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:17,040 Speaker 1: is breaking out. Maybe the favorite right now to win 1354 01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:18,560 Speaker 1: six Man of the Year. I think he's got to 1355 01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:21,040 Speaker 1: be on the short list. He's averaging eighteen points per game, 1356 01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:24,040 Speaker 1: four boards, three assists, and a steal. There's no j Dubb, 1357 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:26,160 Speaker 1: There's no Isaiah Joe Where did you come from? Where 1358 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:29,600 Speaker 1: did you go? No ken Rich Williams. So they're all sidelined. 1359 01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:32,960 Speaker 1: He gets an opportunity taking full advantage of it, tasks 1360 01:00:33,040 --> 01:00:35,720 Speaker 1: where he is making a name for himself. I did 1361 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 1: check prior to last night. He was plus twenty two hundred. 1362 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 1: Mitchell was on FanDuel to win six Man of the Year. 1363 01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 1: So nine guys had shorter odds, like Nasriy to Josh 1364 01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:48,479 Speaker 1: Hart to Malik Monk, but Aj Mitchell, man, he's been 1365 01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:49,240 Speaker 1: so good. 1366 01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:52,040 Speaker 2: They've done it again they have They've done it again, man, 1367 01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:52,760 Speaker 2: done it again. 1368 01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:56,720 Speaker 1: And here's the real kick to the nuts. Mitchell is 1369 01:00:56,760 --> 01:01:02,000 Speaker 1: getting paid something like nine million dollars pause for dramatic 1370 01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:05,160 Speaker 1: effect here over the next three seasons. 1371 01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:07,040 Speaker 2: That's crazy, man, that's. 1372 01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:09,520 Speaker 1: Crazy speaking three million this year and I think it 1373 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:12,600 Speaker 1: goes down next year like two point five or something 1374 01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:16,120 Speaker 1: like that. Come on a xillar in his newsletters side 1375 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:18,960 Speaker 1: that should be illegal. I agree, scam, yeah, call him on. 1376 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:20,040 Speaker 1: This guy's good. 1377 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:23,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's some great front offices that signed good contracts. 1378 01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:27,200 Speaker 2: It reminds me of Duce McBride signed a really really 1379 01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:30,600 Speaker 2: really good one similar three to nine. Aj Mitchell was, 1380 01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:34,360 Speaker 2: you know, in circles last year among Thunder fans and 1381 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:38,200 Speaker 2: Thunder bloggers as you got you got to see this guy. 1382 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:41,720 Speaker 2: They knew he was good. Yeah, and then just play 1383 01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 2: because there's no opportunity. There was no opportunity. And then 1384 01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 2: Sam Presti says, here, just sign this thing. We'll see 1385 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:47,600 Speaker 2: what happens. 1386 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:50,280 Speaker 3: All right. I guess we'll take a chance on you kid. 1387 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 3: I don't know. Here's nine million bucks. 1388 01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, he'll get a part of that bonus if FanDuel 1389 01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 2: or from FanDuel or Whoever, if he's able to win 1390 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:00,200 Speaker 2: six Man of the Year, he'll get he'll get a 1391 01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:01,320 Speaker 2: little push. 1392 01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:02,240 Speaker 1: I can't say that. 1393 01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 2: No, no, not from Fando. But he gets he gets 1394 01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:08,560 Speaker 2: a bonus. He gets a bonus if he gets six man, 1395 01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:10,080 Speaker 2: which is playable. 1396 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,480 Speaker 4: It's yeah, yeah, So what are they gonna do though, 1397 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:16,240 Speaker 4: because he's not going to be the number two ball 1398 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:19,160 Speaker 4: handler for the entire season. Jalen Williams will come back 1399 01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:22,880 Speaker 4: at some point. So whose minutes are getting cut? 1400 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:26,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's tough. I mean where is he in the 1401 01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:27,040 Speaker 3: pecking order? 1402 01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:29,480 Speaker 4: You're right, Wallace is going to play Carusso is going 1403 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:30,880 Speaker 4: to play big Kenrich. 1404 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:35,280 Speaker 3: Sorry, maybe the question is Ery Higgins. 1405 01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:38,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, who's good last night? Yeah, and different positions. 1406 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 4: Wiggins to wing and aj Mitchell is a ball handling guard. 1407 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:43,840 Speaker 4: But they were even confident enough as a rookie to 1408 01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:45,400 Speaker 4: play him five minutes a game in the finals. It 1409 01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:47,680 Speaker 4: doesn't sound like much, but that was a high level finals, right, 1410 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 4: and it was a seven game finals, and they were 1411 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:52,400 Speaker 4: putting him out there in minutes that actually mattered. He's older, right, 1412 01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:55,080 Speaker 4: He's not a twenty year old second player. He's a 1413 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:57,520 Speaker 4: twenty three year old second year player. So he's got 1414 01:02:57,520 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 4: some savvy and the Thunder just have goods out It's 1415 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 4: like they find guys who are going to be good 1416 01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:05,000 Speaker 4: and they play them and they give them a little 1417 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:07,280 Speaker 4: bit of a leash, and I think that's really important. 1418 01:03:07,320 --> 01:03:09,800 Speaker 4: They're throwing Brooks Barnheiser out there, They're like, we need. 1419 01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:10,520 Speaker 3: To see what we have. 1420 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:13,120 Speaker 4: We know we have a good team, so let's figure 1421 01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:15,040 Speaker 4: out the other deep pieces around it. 1422 01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:15,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1423 01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:19,000 Speaker 2: Two a guy in Brooks Barnheiser fun name to say. 1424 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:23,720 Speaker 2: He's another mustache mullet guy. 1425 01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:28,320 Speaker 1: Right, Barneiser. It sounds like a piece of clothing ather 1426 01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:36,080 Speaker 1: guy would weary Brooks Barneiser. That's a nice vest, is 1427 01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:38,640 Speaker 1: that Brooks Funny Hank? 1428 01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:41,840 Speaker 2: That guy he must if whatever he's wearing is a 1429 01:03:41,960 --> 01:03:42,720 Speaker 2: double XL. 1430 01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,280 Speaker 1: So AJ Mitchell walk to a great start here, definitely. 1431 01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:51,000 Speaker 1: Like we said one of the guys early on as 1432 01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:54,280 Speaker 1: a potential six Man of the Year guy, I guess 1433 01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:57,120 Speaker 1: you could tuck yourself into potential most improved player. But 1434 01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:59,080 Speaker 1: he's a second year guy, so you know how I 1435 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,479 Speaker 1: feel about that. Roll my eyes at that. But he's 1436 01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:05,520 Speaker 1: been good and I do love that the Thunder are 1437 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:08,280 Speaker 1: doing things differently this year. Yes, they're still winning games. 1438 01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:10,000 Speaker 1: That's the same as last year. But last year it 1439 01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:12,920 Speaker 1: was like, we're gonna beat you by fifteen to twenty 1440 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:13,800 Speaker 1: points every game. 1441 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:17,200 Speaker 3: This year the exact opposite. We're gonna be. 1442 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 1: Down, you know, eight to nine points, getting into clutch time, 1443 01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:23,680 Speaker 1: and then we're gonna come storming back and beat you 1444 01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:26,439 Speaker 1: either in regulation or overtime. Like every game they've played, 1445 01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:27,439 Speaker 1: it feels like it's been close. 1446 01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 4: They've played four out of five clutch games so far. 1447 01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:33,160 Speaker 4: Four and oh, obviously, and Shay has hit so many 1448 01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 4: big shots. Oh, I know already to start the season. 1449 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,040 Speaker 4: He might win Clutch Player of the Year. But you 1450 01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:39,640 Speaker 4: would rather be blowing these teams out. 1451 01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:41,120 Speaker 3: Yes, it was. 1452 01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:43,360 Speaker 4: You know, they were pretty fresh when it came to 1453 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:46,600 Speaker 4: the playoffs last year because they had everybody healthy for 1454 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:48,800 Speaker 4: the majority of the season. You know, Chet and Isaiah 1455 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,240 Speaker 4: Hartenstein definitely missed time. I know that happened, but we're 1456 01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:53,360 Speaker 4: talking J dub and SGA. They played all the time. 1457 01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:55,400 Speaker 4: They were blowing these teams out. They were able to 1458 01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:57,640 Speaker 4: keep their minutes down. It'll be different if they go 1459 01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:00,720 Speaker 4: through the year. They're getting everybody's best shot. People are 1460 01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:04,080 Speaker 4: playing them well and they're squeaking out these wins. That 1461 01:05:04,160 --> 01:05:06,760 Speaker 4: takes a toll on your body rather than resting in 1462 01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:07,440 Speaker 4: fourth quarters. 1463 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:10,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, last year, I think it was about ten games 1464 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 2: that they got into clutch time. 1465 01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 3: That's it. 1466 01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:17,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. It was extremely low. That's crazy. It 1467 01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 2: was super super low at one point. Yeah, they had 1468 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:23,520 Speaker 2: played nine when they they destroyed the Miami Heat early 1469 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,720 Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter. They put twenty five straight or 1470 01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 2: whatever it was. So I could be wrong. They could 1471 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:32,200 Speaker 2: have added twenty four clutch games last year. I was 1472 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:35,120 Speaker 2: still a very low number. Oh I'm wrong, lowest in 1473 01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:37,520 Speaker 2: the league. Yeah, so it was it was February. I 1474 01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:39,440 Speaker 2: guess they when they did that to the Heat. So 1475 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:41,640 Speaker 2: I just figured maybe they just had won the rest 1476 01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:43,960 Speaker 2: of the year.
