I've just been hallucinating NonStop the last couple weeks. 20 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: I think Victor webban Yama is some kind of uh don't. 21 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 2: Dream that what he did in the preseason was that 22 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 2: a dream. 23 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: I don't know a lot of people. A lot of 24 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 1: people would have you thinking it's. 25 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 2: Just all happening. It's an interesting wrinkle. According to one 26 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 2: NBA commentator comment sator whose name I will not mention. 27 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: It's an interesting wrinkle. The second coming is a Pawna Miles. 28 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 2: It's all I'm freaking out. I'm freaking out. I'm letting 29 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 2: myself get over hyped because I am not a professional 30 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 2: basketball commentator and that is fun. 31 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: But guess who is?

We're doing great. 36 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 3: I mean, we're you having me on the show despite 37 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 3: the fact that I'm a Suns fan. 38 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 2: No, of course, I'm a Suns fan myself as yeah. 39 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's true. Jack is a Suns fan now, 40 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: and I appreciate you coming on the show despite me 41 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,799 Speaker 1: being not pethered to reality Lakers fan. 42 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 3: I mean, how many Lakers fans are? Yeah, truly, we're 43 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 3: still looking for the first one. 44 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:30,959 Speaker 2: These guys, I'll tell you. 45 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: Tell you, these guys they think they got a load 46 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: on the strings. But yeah, so, I mean, you know, 47 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: I'm guessing you are just as excited as anybody else 48 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: for the season to start, especially with the Suns looking 49 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: the way they do, or at least that roster looking 50 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: the way it does. 51 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 3: I mean, everybody in Phoenix is certainly everybody here at 52 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 3: phn X, like, I mean, this is probably the most 53 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 3: anticipated season starts with a seasons since Charles Barkley. I mean, 54 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 3: it's gotta be that far back. I mean the seven 55 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 3: seconds or Less Sons were fun, Chris Paul was fun. 56 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 3: But we've never started off the season with this much 57 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 3: star studded talent on one roster ever. And this is man, 58 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 3: I can't wait to see it for real. 59 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: Right because we were gonna ask like, how do you think? 60 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: Like you I think you already said, were like, how 61 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 1: does this compare to ninety three oh five or even 62 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: seventy six? And you're saying, this is here, we are, 63 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 1: this is the excitement right here. 64 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 3: I think, so yeah, yeah, this is I mean listen, 65 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 3: like I think in the middle of I think the 66 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 3: closest thing you could say is probably seven seconds or 67 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 3: less Sons. In terms of Hall of Fame talent, you 68 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 3: can make an argument that Mariy Stademeier, Sean Marion, and 69 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 3: Steve Nash obviously are all Hall of Fame worthy, whether 70 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 3: they get in or not, you know whatever at that 71 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: but at the time you didn't know which way that 72 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 3: was gonna go or if they would have a chance 73 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 3: to be that caliber right now. You know, Devin Booker, 74 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 3: Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal all have Hall of Fame talent. 75 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: They could all be there someday, you know, provided they 76 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 3: stay healthy. And I mean, that's it's pretty remarkable. I 77 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 3: also like, listen, I love Charles Barkley, but he's never 78 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 3: won a championship. I love Steve Nash, he never won 79 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 3: a championship. Kevin Durant has, He's won two of them. 80 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 2: And let's just say, what what they know? That's not 81 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. I am they did about the n 82 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: b AU media. 83 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: I am. 84 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 2: They did. They did win m v P S, So 85 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 2: that's that's their credibility. 86 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:25,359 Speaker 1: That's something. 87 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 3: But as a team, I'm I'm really excited for these 88 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 3: three to see how they work together. 89 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. So again, expectations for for the new guys coming 90 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: in are how we're what level are you at and 91 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: what what is your expectation in terms of what the 92 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: contribution is going to be and how that ends up 93 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: when we get to you know, the business end of 94 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 1: the season. 95 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 2: You know, what's so funny is you. 96 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 3: You were just talking about you know, Lakers fans and 97 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 3: their rational you know, feelings about how good their team 98 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 3: should be or old championships. 99 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: Actually you're old them. 100 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, you always old, right, And I think that's part 101 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 3: of the Yeah, that's definitely been part of the the 102 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,679 Speaker 3: learning process out here, is that I'm sick and tired 103 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 3: of always feeling like, you know, we just hope this 104 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 3: is gonna happen. We just hope that things are going 105 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 3: to go our way. Like we've actually started on our 106 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 3: shows being like it's time to start expecting this to happen. 107 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 2: Like we we are owed championships? Are you kidding me? 108 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 3: Like, I don't think there's a franchise out there that's 109 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 3: owed more championships than the Phoenix Suns. So my expectations 110 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 3: are extraordinarily high. It's championship or bust. 111 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 2: In my opinion. 112 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 3: We've gotten to the finals multiple times, three times in 113 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,239 Speaker 3: the franchise's history. We've never gotten it done. We've come close. 114 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 3: We should have done it in twenty one, but then 115 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 3: we lost four straight. This is it, this is the year. 116 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 3: I don't care about the Nuggets, I don't care about 117 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 3: the Lakers. I don't care about the Bucks of the Celtics. 118 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 3: We control our own destiny. These three are plenty good 119 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 3: enough to get it done, so they need to make 120 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 3: it happen. 121 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: By the way, super producer Jabbari is his mic is 122 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 2: muted so the listener can't hear him, but he is 123 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 2: steepling his fingers and laughing and saying yes, yes, like 124 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 2: the Emperor and the let it course between Darth Vader 125 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 2: and to you exactly exactly. 126 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: Other teams don't matter, no matter what they look like. 127 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 1: It's all about us exactly. So welcome, welcome, But it's true. 128 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: But I know, like, yeah, that meant I think that's important, 129 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: and I think that's obviously exciting for a fan base 130 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: when you do kind of turn that corner and it 131 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: goes from like, well we might we might have something 132 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: here to be like you, no, we have like we 133 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: have something here, now let's see it through. 134 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm excited, Aliston. 135 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: The hardest part about this is always going to be 136 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 3: kind of similar. It's kind of funny that Kevin Durant 137 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 3: was kind of in this situation before, but in Golden State, 138 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 3: where you had two premier shooters and then you had 139 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 3: Draymond Green as well. Now you have the same thing, 140 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 3: and Bradley Beal, who's an efficient score at every single level. 141 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 3: Devin Booker is probably one of the most efficient scores 142 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 3: of the mid range we've ever seen. Kevin Durant right 143 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 3: there with him obviously, and Katie being able to play 144 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 3: and off the ball, on the ball like he could 145 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 3: do everything, and those literally literally you have three guys 146 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 3: that can play at every single level. And then the 147 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 3: evolution of Devin Booker, I feel like, is what's going 148 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 3: to change this a little bit. I really I hope 149 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 3: for his sake, and I really hope for Sun's fan's sake, 150 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 3: that he starts to get the national love from the 151 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 3: beginning of the season that he has deserved basically the 152 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 3: last three in terms of how great a player he 153 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 3: really is. And people sleep on him. They talk about, oh, 154 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 3: he's not a top five or ten player. No, he 155 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 3: absolutely is, Like you just haven't watched him a lot. 156 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 3: And his growth and development, I think is what's finally 157 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: going to get the attention this season. And I really 158 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 3: do believe that they're gonna win their first championship this year. 159 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 3: That's just how I feel. 160 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: I like to hear it I'd like to hear that I. 161 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 2: Love the optimism for the players. I root for KD. 162 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:52,679 Speaker 2: I am very I feel like this this season could 163 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 2: be What was exciting to me about those NETS teams, 164 00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: Like you know, it's something that we've talked about since 165 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 2: the first episode of this show, is that we love 166 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 2: how much KD is a fan of the NBA and 167 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 2: has a good eye for like players and like Booker 168 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 2: was one of the first people. He was one of 169 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 2: the first people to call out Booker, like his rookie year. 170 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 2: He was like, he's actually gonna be incredibly good, and 171 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 2: so like a team that's kind of put together in 172 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 2: his image, like kind of he's taken another swing at 173 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: the NETS thing. And I don't know, the NETS thing 174 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 2: should have worked out better than it did, Like it 175 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 2: was that that's it, like when they had it going, 176 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 2: and I think I talked about this last week, but 177 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 2: like I think we just all remember it badly going 178 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 2: badly because of how it ended. But like at the 179 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 2: peak when they actually played together for like five games, 180 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: like that was an incredible experiment that was unbelievable to watch, 181 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 2: And so I don't know, it's like better. 182 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 3: I think I think the problem there was. I love KD. 183 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 3: I think he's he's pretty level headed in my opinion, 184 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 3: but I don't. I don't know if he's necessarily the 185 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 3: stabilizing force in a locker room or an organization, if 186 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 3: that makes sense. Yeah, and so then you're relying on 187 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 3: Kyrie and James Harden. 188 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, there's the problem. Like, and I don't. 189 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 3: This is Devin Booker's team, Like Kevin Durant is these 190 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 3: these superstar and one of the two biggest names in 191 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 3: the game. But this is Devin Booker's team. Kevin Durant 192 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 3: said it. Bradley Beal said it, like Devin Booker's been 193 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 3: here in the valley. He's established himself in the valley. 194 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 3: They came to his organization. He wants to be here 195 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 3: for the duration of his career. Like, this is his 196 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 3: team and he's the stabilizing force even with all the 197 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 3: drama off the court, the DeAndre Aiden saga for the 198 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 3: last five years, Like, Devin Booker has been that stabilizing 199 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 3: force across the board. And I think Chris Paul helped 200 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 3: teach him how to get there. But once he got there, 201 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 3: which is basically year two of Chris Paul, he never 202 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 3: let it go and that was it and now it's 203 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 3: just Devin Booker's franchise. 204 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, how are you looking at? Oh? Just I mean, 205 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: and like, one thing I think we've always kept talking about, 206 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: especially when we talk about the Suns, are like, Okay, 207 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 1: I'm gonna score a lot of points defensively, Well, it 208 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: does it even matter because the scoring is going to 209 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: be so off the charts or you know, Jack, you 210 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 1: were spending time with Vogues as you call him, Frank Vogel. Yeah, 211 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: with Vogues and saying, you know, like Vogues knows how 212 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: to get teams to defend though too, so it might 213 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: not it's not that big of a deal. How are 214 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: you looking at you know, that experience with the coaching 215 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: staff and everything, and how that's going to factor into 216 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,319 Speaker 1: perceived you know, weaknesses of the team. 217 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually don't think that it's gonna be much 218 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 3: of a weakness by the end of the season at all. 219 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 2: I like what they have defensively. 220 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 3: Now you can look at Nurkitchen, You're probably gonna have 221 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 3: some deficiencies on the perimeter, you know, in the pick 222 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 3: a roll and matchups from time to time, for sure. 223 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 3: And but Bogel will try to scheme them out of 224 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 3: that as much as possible. You're not gonna be able 225 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 3: to hide him completely. I mean, let's be honest. I mean, 226 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 3: he's he's a little slow footed. So when you have 227 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 3: those bigs like Anthony Davis who gave him fits the 228 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 3: other night, and a preseason game like that's when it's 229 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 3: really gonna you know that ugliness is going to come through. 230 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 3: But at the same time, when you when you got 231 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 3: a matchup against the guy like Joki, Jokich is still 232 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 3: going to get his triple double. He's probably still gonna 233 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 3: get thirty, twenty and ten, but he's gonna have to 234 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 3: work a little hard for it, which I'm okay with. 235 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 3: And you're hoping that that's going to pay dividends in 236 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 3: other areas. And honestly, the length of this team is insane. 237 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 3: I like their athleticism across the board. They added Grayson Allen, 238 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 3: they add a KBD, they added a bunch of guys, 239 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 3: And then the biggest thing for me is really when 240 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 3: you're talking about guard play in the NBA playoffs, we 241 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 3: have two guys that everybody in the league is sleeping on. 242 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 3: They don't understand them and Joshua Kogie and Jordan Goodwin, 243 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 3: who I really believe are going to be the biggest 244 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 3: pains in the asses for any backcourt in the league. 245 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 3: They get their hands on just about every pass, every ball, 246 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 3: They die for loose balls. They're gritty, they're grimy, and 247 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 3: I think they're gonna set the tone a lot of 248 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 3: times on the defensive end. And then you talk about 249 00:11:58,400 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 3: the length. We're not even going to bring up both 250 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 3: b because I don't think he should play ever. But 251 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 3: you know, it's just. 252 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: My opinionally not even an NBA game. You just don't 253 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 2: think you should play pick up Yeah, like ever, No, 254 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 2: I don't. 255 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 3: I don't have real interest in watching him play pick 256 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 3: up basketball anywhere. Yeah, you know, like listen, he's just 257 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 3: he's all right, he's all right, but he's not alright 258 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 3: for the NBA. He's not alright for the Suns right 259 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 3: now and what they're trying to get accomplished. So I 260 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 3: just think the standards, they have a lot of flexibility 261 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 3: across the board that I just don't think a lot 262 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 3: of people are really giving a lot of respect to. 263 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, we had the question, are these the highest expectations 264 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 2: the heading into a sun season. Ever. Are these the 265 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,719 Speaker 2: highest expectations heading into any NBA season ever? That that's 266 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 2: the question on my mind hearing you talk, you are. 267 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 3: You are like, no, No, I don't think so. Like 268 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 3: I want them to win the championship. If they get 269 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 3: to the finals, then they lose, It's not going to 270 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 3: be the end of the world. You look at teams 271 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 3: like the Bulls, you know, or or even the Warriors 272 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 3: when they first got KD, You're like, if they don't 273 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 3: win a championship, that's an epic failure, right. I think 274 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 3: that was the bar was set because they had already 275 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 3: won a championship before KD showed up. 276 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 2: Then you had KD to the piece like championship, right right? Yeah? 277 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: Anyways, wait, what would what would you consider a quote 278 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: unquote failure? 279 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 3: You get bounced in the second round by thirty points 280 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:22,079 Speaker 3: at home again, Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, MAVs Nuggets back 281 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 3: to back years. You're losing, you know, big time on 282 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 3: home and elimination games. That can't happen. That's just not 283 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 3: going to happen. So that would be a big epic failure. Obviously, Listen, 284 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 3: we we already know the injury history of these guys too. 285 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 3: You know, it would be sad if if you know, 286 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 3: one of them missed out a duration of the season 287 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 3: or all of the season for injury. But I wouldn't 288 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 3: even consider that an epic failure because you can't really 289 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 3: control that. 290 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it would be an epic failure for 291 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 2: the Philadelphia seventy six ers if they didn't get bounced 292 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 2: in the second round. I think they have equilibrium that 293 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 2: they're fans expect from them, and if they don't live 294 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 2: up to it, we're going to be disappointed, confused, confusion. 295 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: The conference finals is wrong with y'all? 296 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think in the game, I don't think 297 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 2: we have to worry about that. All right? Should we 298 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,119 Speaker 2: take a break, come back and talk about some milestones 299 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 2: this season and just how we're feeling heading in It is? 300 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: Uh where we are recording this on Christmas Eve of 301 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 2: the NBA season.

It's all about mobility now, and 309 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: he's got it. 310 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 2: But yeah, let's take a quick break. 311 00:14:54,480 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 4: We'll come back, and we're back. 312 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: We are back.

So I'm still feeling okay, 331 00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: but they've added some pieces that definitely has me snooping 332 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: and being like, what are they working? Because I I 333 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 1: feel I see the potential for something to just go 334 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: off over there. But yeah, I think I'm I have 335 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: a more fear based interest. If I'm mean transparent, you. 336 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 3: Stay off, do you mean like off, like off kilter 337 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 3: or like off like they're like. 338 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: Like they're gonna is about to go if they're gonna 339 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 1: set it set it off like the fantastic crime heist 340 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: film starring Queen Latifah. Like in that sense, they will 341 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: set it off for Verbian speaking, I. 342 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 2: Feel the off kilter part for the Bucks, Okay, I am. 343 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 2: I don't know. 344 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 3: There's something about I love Dame, I love Giannis, I 345 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 3: love Middleton, but there is something about that team that 346 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't know if this is gonna work. 347 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 3: I it sounds stupid, I know, but I just I 348 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 3: don't know. I'm just something aboutically, I don't think that 349 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 3: Dame is going to be the Dame that we all 350 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 3: know with those other two star players as prevalent as 351 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 3: they are, like especially Giannis, like Dame has never played 352 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 3: with a guy like that ever, right, No, I mean, 353 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 3: not a lot of players have. But like Giannis commands 354 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 3: the ball, he's a demanding player. Middleton needs his touches too, 355 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 3: like and so Dame is gonna have to figure that 356 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 3: part out. The closest he's ever come is, you know, 357 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 3: having CJ. McCollum as his number two, Like, that's not 358 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 3: the same as what he's getting into. So I do 359 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 3: wonder about that flexibility, him being able to play off 360 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 3: the ball as well, a little bit more than he's 361 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 3: probably accustomed to. I think there's just gonna be a 362 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 3: nice little mix there that they're gonna have to learn 363 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 3: now by the end of the season. I could probably 364 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 3: be wrong, and they could be one of the best 365 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 3: teams in the East. I expect him to still be 366 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 3: one of the best teams in the East. I just 367 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 3: don't think it's gonna be as easy as people are 368 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 3: making it out to be. 369 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, yeah, I don't think it's gonna be easy. 370 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 2: I'm definitely intrigued. I'm checking for them. I'm not checking 371 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 2: for Boston because I think they're just going to be 372 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 2: very good, and it bums me out. I love Holiday 373 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 2: and man, don't don't love seeing him in the Celtic green. 374 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 2: But okay, see I'm checking for Wemby. I'm gonna I'm 375 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 2: gonna be watching his games. I'm checking for Okay, See, 376 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 2: I love Okac.

Love. 378 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 2: I can't wait to watch them play. 379 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's a man between. Okay, so I'm 380 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: thinking Celtic is the other one I've actually I've been 381 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: also excited about the Bucks, but I'm definitely looking at 382 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 1: it like n B A two K Well, I'm like, yeah, yeah, 383 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: put put Dame on there.

I gotta say I don't 399 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 1: when people have those kinds of like self referential tattoos, 400 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: that always gives me a bit of a bit of pause. 401 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, I get that you've boughten. I love that 402 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 1: you believe in yourself, but that's just only one dimension 403 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: of it all. But yeah, yeah, we will see yeah, 404 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: especially in guess. 405 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 3: You know back in the day, Saturday Night Live used 406 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 3: to have those skits with I think it's Stuart Smiley 407 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 3: or whatever where and he had Michael Jordan on the 408 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 3: show and he was looking into Marry. He's like, I 409 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 3: want you to repeat after me. I'm good enough, I'm 410 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 3: smart enough and doggone at people like me. And I 411 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 3: feel like that that's DeAndre Aiden, Like, I feel like 412 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 3: he's constantly having to tell himself that because he doesn't 413 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 3: have a lot of believers. 414 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 2: In his game. 415 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,199 Speaker 3: Now yeah, and now he's trying to convince himself that 416 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 3: he is that superstar and he's trying to play like it. 417 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 3: But it just hasn't come. He has shown up on 418 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 3: the floor as much as he'd like. 419 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: You know, I think he needs to embrace, like, you 420 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: know what he said about the environment. I think, like 421 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: I could that resonated a bit with me, and it's 422 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: like I just okay, I feel like I'm in a 423 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: place that that feels good that I've wanted. I think 424 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: he needs to just like reset with that energy first 425 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: before he can really have any expectations of himself here, 426 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: Like try and shed any baggage you may have had 427 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: and just try and start overclean rather than like immediately 428 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 1: coming in. I'm like, it's dominating time. 429 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 2: Let's go like. 430 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: Okay, no, no, no, we get it, but give give yourself 431 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: a moment. 432 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 3: I think the minute he realizes he's number two, I 433 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 3: think the better he'll be. But I think he forever 434 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 3: thinks that he should be a primary option no matter what, 435 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 3: and that's just never going to happen in the NBA. 436 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 2: Now. 437 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 3: With his skill set, he listened, the guy struggles when 438 00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 3: it comes to dribbling the ball in the first place. 439 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 3: He can shoot the mid range as good as any 440 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 3: big man. He's got a nice touch around the rim, 441 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 3: shoots a high percentage. But the problem is is getting 442 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 3: him set up for those opportunities. Is it's been a 443 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 3: little cumbersome for a lot for a large period of time, 444 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 3: especially with the Suns, and you surround him with superstars 445 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 3: and he thinks he's equal to those said superstars, and 446 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,479 Speaker 3: it just isn't the case if he just came with 447 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 3: like that, you know, Al Horford mentality, where he's just 448 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 3: gonna do the dirty work. He's gonna hit the open 449 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 3: bucket when you need it, he's gonna play, he's gonna 450 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 3: be a you know, the smartest player out there, and 451 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 3: he can last another twenty years in this league. But 452 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:37,679 Speaker 3: I just don't know if in his head he's ever 453 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 3: going to get there. 454 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I'm rather than dominating, I'm DomU waiting to 455 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 1: see what happens. 456 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 3: Wow. 457 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, that's that's a trademark too.

Yeah. 477 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 2: And Russell Westbrook two triple doubles away from being the 478 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:53,400 Speaker 2: only player with two hundred career triple doubles.

As 853 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,439 Speaker 2: we learned in the last dance right that like he 854 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 2: studied with the direction that the ball came off when 855 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 2: when certain people missed. But yeah, it is like a 856 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:42,439 Speaker 2: skill that I wasn't even really aware of, Like when 857 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 2: I was playing basketball, I wasn't like, oh, I can 858 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 2: always predict twitch direction.

So I'm not so 861 00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 3: sure if I'm supposed to step in you're purposely trying 862 00:40:58,440 --> 00:40:59,399 Speaker 3: to slow this down. 863 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: No, no, no no, But I do want to add 864 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 1: I feel rebounding is one of those underrated skill sets 865 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 1: as a kid. You don't really appreciate it at the time. Yeah, 866 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:09,720 Speaker 1: kids are. 867 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 2: Funny, aren't they. 868 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: So you gotta keep us, you gotta keep us moving. 869 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 3: Man. 870 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:13,799 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. 871 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. Next question, next question, next question. You 872 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 1: can go back in time. You're gonna hop in the Dolorean. 873 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 1: You know you're gonna put the banana peel in the 874 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: misterfusion and get this thing to whatever many jiggawats you 875 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: needed to go back in time, and you could permit 876 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:30,279 Speaker 1: either Charles Barkley or Steve Nash to make a run 877 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 1: with this current Sun squad. Which one are you choosing 878 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 1: to take that ride in the Delorian. 879 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:38,280 Speaker 2: That's a great question. 880 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 3: Everybody would crucify me if I did not say Steve 881 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 3: Nash because we don't have a point guard and Steve 882 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,920 Speaker 3: Nash will be phenomenal, and I think he would. He 883 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 3: would ultimately win us the championship. So I'm gonna go 884 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 3: with Steve Nash. But Charles Barkley down low would be 885 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,279 Speaker 3: just so beautiful.
