1
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:21,120
Speaker 1: What's up, y'all?

00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:35,520
Speaker 2: good Fellas?

6
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 3: Why is it not Woes?

7
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: It actually is Woes.

8
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 2: That's the ethnic way to say it. I'm Haitian, So

9
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: that's how you would say it. If you people say

10
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 2: it in Hatitian creole.

11
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 4: People have been like, not pronounce your name correctly.

12
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: It's kind of just the Yankee way to say so

13
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: I just roll with it.

14
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 2: If you're not Haitian. I don't really expect you to

15
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: know how to say my ship right. But that's crazy

16
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 2: that you got it right on the first try. Haitians

17
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 2: and Englewood probably probably, I know. In Boston, it's oh

18
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 2: my god, it's a lot of a lot of Boston

19
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 2: in Boston.

20
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: Man. Hype to be on the show with you guys today.

21
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 4: Man, it's been a long time coming for sure.

22
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 2: Super hyped about the season so far. It's been really exciting.

23
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 2: But man, let's just get right into it.

24
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 5: Man.

25
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 2: There's been a lot of hot starts to start the season,

26
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 2: a lot of scoring a lot of forty balls, triple doubles,

27
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: a lot of Wimby. But before we even get into Wemby,

28
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 2: I want to talk about Giannis because I think this

29
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 2: is like a pivotal year for him.

30
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: There's like a lot of trade stuff.

31
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 4: Swirling for the Bucks, not really for the Bucks. I

32
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 4: would say both Janni is valid certified, he had the contract,

33
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 4: the Bucks got to key him, so fair.

34
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: That's that's a great way to look at it.

35
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 2: But like he's come out and if there was any doubt,

36
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 2: like this guy is taking his job serious and it's

37
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 2: still one of those ones like it's been kind of

38
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 2: crazy to watch.

39
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 6: Oh no, it's never been a doll with Giannis. He

40
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 6: just he has that personality. You know, he don't strike

41
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 6: me as a guy that does it for the money.

42
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 6: You know, he wants to win, like and you see

43
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,399
Speaker 6: that at his play every year. And like you said,

44
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 6: it is pivotal because I see a guy that want

45
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 6: to win and he's looking around and see if he

46
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 6: got the teammates and the coaching staff or the ownership

47
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 6: that are they committed to winning.

48
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: If not, it could be some changes in Milwaukee.

49
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 4: Telling you, I mean before the season started out I

50
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 4: thought Milwaukee was not gonna be good. I thought they

51
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 4: were going to say say trash, but I thought they

52
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 4: were right there, you know what I'm saying. But tonight's

53
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 4: win against the Knicks, it shows you that one of

54
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 4: the Knicks got ways to go, and they got to

55
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 4: figure out some things with Mike Brown, like the chemistry,

56
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,519
Speaker 4: the continuity, like it takes time. And I don't know

57
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 4: if they used to playing his type of basketball yet,

58
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 4: his style of play, but Giannie has let it be

59
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 4: known he's still very much an MVP caliber player and

60
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 4: can will his team to beat anybody, especially in the East.

61
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,079
Speaker 4: Is so wide open. Yeah, for them to beat the Knicks,

62
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 4: so they they're very much capable of being one of

63
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 4: the top teams in the East, and that he can

64
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 4: do it. And you know, it looks like Milwaukee, the

65
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 4: way they're starting out, might be able to keep him.

66
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 4: You know, it doesn't look like he needs to go

67
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 4: anywhere right now. You know, the cat don't look too

68
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 4: happy in New York. Looks a little frustrated, you know.

69
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 4: And I don't know if it makes sense. I mean,

70
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 4: for Gianni is enticing to go somewhere else like that,

71
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 4: But if the Knicks ain't doing what we expect him

72
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 4: to do. Why would I want to go there?

73
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: So I think it's a little early to be like Jannis.

74
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 2: The three and one's a great start, and again I

75
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 2: underestimated him definitely coming into the season. But like for me,

76
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 2: this feels like a Westbrook in twenty seventeen situation when

77
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 2: he's okay, see yes, first year after k D left

78
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 2: the triple double average, Yes, where it's a very limited

79
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: team and he gets to put up crazy numbers. Like

80
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: Giannis is leading the league in scoring. Damn they're leading

81
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 2: them in rebounding.

82
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 4: There's a big difference. Though Russ was in the West

83
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 4: and the West was tough, THEES is wide open. You

84
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 4: worry about Cleveland and New York, and you just prove

85
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 4: you could beat New York, which again it's early season,

86
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 4: so we're not seven game series. But Russ was in

87
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 4: the West and he wasn't winning a bunch of games.

88
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 4: So if Gianna's keeps up and they continue to win games,

89
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 4: it'll be a different story.

90
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 3: As long as you.

91
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 6: Got the top five of top five player all your team,

92
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 6: you're a contender. I mean, think about it. Think about

93
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 6: all the champions like like the last few years. You

94
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 6: think about Shay MVP a joker. The year before that,

95
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 6: I think the year before like you got him Steph

96
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 6: Stephan before you got a chance to win.

97
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: So it's Tatum is always the top five m VP

98
00:04:59,320 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: caliber guy.

99
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 6: So like my thing is, I don't think as constructed

100
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 6: unless you know some of these other guys step up

101
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 6: and emerge that haven't emerged before.

102
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 3: Some of the young guys they got.

103
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 6: They need to make one solid move because you need

104
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 6: guys you can depend on. I know the East is

105
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 6: down and you gotta be good and lucky. But like

106
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 6: teams like New York, even though New York lost, I

107
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 6: like New York in the playoff setting versus in right now,

108
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 6: Yeah for sure, I like Cleveland in the playoffs.

109
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 4: Sel I got to question people, who what do you

110
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 4: they need to make them? What do you think they

111
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 4: need though if they make a move, what do you

112
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 4: think they're missing?

113
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 6: They need somebody that can count on who can create

114
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 6: like every another score I can I can pin him

115
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 6: in on a bad night to like have be good.

116
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 4: Okay, you know what I'm saying. I feel like on

117
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 4: the bench Bobby Porters is pretty solid. Miles Turner. They

118
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 4: got him, but he's not.

119
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 3: Heeter miss him. With some of these guys, they got

120
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 3: to figure it out who's their second best player.

121
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 4: It's up in the air.

122
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 3: You never know.

123
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 4: It could be by Reports, could be my turn, it

124
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 4: could be Cools, it could be Gary Anthony Cole has

125
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 4: a Knight. I said, you're right, they need a solidified

126
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:08,239
Speaker 4: second second.

127
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 6: If John, I mean he's gonna ninety nine percent of

128
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 6: the time for that one percent, Like you always need

129
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 6: role players to win you that one game. Like I

130
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 6: seen Danny Green win games in the finals in the playoffs.

131
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 6: He took the pressure off the starts. Who can do

132
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 6: that for them if you're making a deep playoff run.

133
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 2: I don't think this that team exists, and I'm I

134
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 2: think it's dope that they've had a great start, a

135
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 2: fast start, But I would still be surprised.

136
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: If they won a first round series.

137
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I will still be at Yeah, you'd be surprised

138
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 4: they win one round.

139
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 3: Yes, I think I can win one round.

140
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 4: When y'all come on, bron get you around, to.

141
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 3: Get you around.

142
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 4: I'm not saying in the East. Still think about the

143
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 4: East New York. Yeah, they're gonna be top half. So

144
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 4: so you say they get home court, they in the

145
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 4: top four.

146
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 2: They got to finish above Orlando, Detroit, Atlanta.

147
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 3: And I'm not scared of Nonoe.

148
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 1: Of that.

149
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 4: Atlanta, I'm not buying right now. Orlando, I'm not said Detroit.

150
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 4: All three of those teams look really shaky right now.

151
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: Sure, and the Bucks look amazing right now.

152
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 4: Philly looks good. New York is solid, Cleveland solid. Those

153
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 4: are the only three teams that I'm like. Even in Philly.

154
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 4: They got to stay healthy, Sleep the only two teams

155
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 4: that I'm seeing that Philly sleeper.

156
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 3: They are sleeper to come out of the East, to

157
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 3: come out of the whole East.

158
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 4: Because if they're playing right now, well without Joel being healthy,

159
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 4: they got something, especially with Edgecomb and we get Jared

160
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 4: McCaine back and Paul George. Yes, again, if Milwaukee is

161
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 4: the top four seeded team, even if they're top five,

162
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 4: they're top six, you don't think they could beat.

163
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: I'd be surprised if they want a first round series.

164
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 4: Against the against like Orlando. They don't think they could

165
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 4: be Orlando like Giannis can be Orlando.

166
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 2: I just think they're just more limited outside of the

167
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 2: Giannis thing in a playoff content context. Like I think

168
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 2: in the playoffs, it's like we've seen this happen to

169
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 2: Giannis with better players around him, with teams lock in

170
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 2: on what it is that he's doing, and it's like,

171
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 2: all right, Giannis, you gotta do this for forty four minutes,

172
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 2: create every single shot for yourself and every single person

173
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 2: on your team.

174
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like that's been pretty usually usually to Miami. Usually

175
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 4: to Miami team that knocks. You got Jimmy, but he's

176
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 4: start which we're gonna give me not there no more

177
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 4: Taler heroes. So I'm it's been okay, but I don't

178
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 4: think there's any more Miami Jimmy's that's happening to Milwaukee.

179
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 4: But I do, I do, I get what you're saying.

180
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: In the past, it hasn't been impossible.

181
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 4: I think it tops down to coaching and what what

182
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 4: Doc is going to do for them in the playoffs

183
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 4: at the end of the day. So I think Doc's

184
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 4: out coach whoever that first round matchup is, which is

185
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 4: I think they can get I think they can get

186
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 4: around with.

187
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,079
Speaker 1: So you guys are sold on the bucks being.

188
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 4: Over I'm not here. That's over achieving for you.

189
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: And getting I think this Bucks team is would be overachieving.

190
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,719
Speaker 3: Arguably the best player in the league. Yeah, he's a

191
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 3: top for arguably m V Like I gotta I gotta

192
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 3: ride with that, you know.

193
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 4: Overachieving, I say, I think that's like that's what they expect.

194
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: They should be expected to win the first round series

195
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:10,839
Speaker 1: this year.

196
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 4: They expected to get to the playoffs and at least

197
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 4: win rue round. You got if he's still on the

198
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 4: team by playoff time, like now they could have a

199
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 4: dive and now they're talking trade deadline like he's trying

200
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 4: to get moved. But that's if he's still on that

201
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 4: team and they're doing okay in the eastings, if.

202
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 2: They get to the Eastern Conference playoffs, the real playoffs,

203
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 2: not the playing y'all think they should be expected to

204
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 2: win a round depend on that matchup.

205
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,839
Speaker 4: See now now you said you said playing so like

206
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 4: if they drop again, if they at the bottom, they're

207
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 4: winning like they are winning.

208
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 1: Finished within the top six of the East.

209
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 4: I think if they get home court advantage that they're

210
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 4: gonna play the bottom half of the league. Like think

211
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 4: about the bottom half Charlotte like sneaking in Miami, sneaking

212
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 4: it like they can beat those teams.

213
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 1: To me, no, no, no, I think they can't.

214
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 2: I just don't think they're actually over the long the

215
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 2: long tail of the season. I don't think they're gonna

216
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: finish in.

217
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: The top half.

218
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 4: But like, you know, maybe not.

219
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 2: Let's keep let's keep my eye on this, guys, like,

220

249
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 4: One's not going out tonight.

250
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: Tyrese Maxi is shot out the gate.

251
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, like a freaking canon fifty percent from three. He's

252
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 2: one of the best shooters in the NBA. It's it's

253
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 2: kind of crazy somebody that quick athletic is one of

254
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 2: the league's best shoots.

255
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 1: He's averaging thirty seven points. That's that's crazy.

256
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 4: Seven assists.

257
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: The rookie VJ. Edgecombe is just that's.

258
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 4: Been supposed to bro He's showing He's showing a lot

259
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 4: of maturity and That's what I like about him the most.

260
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 4: He's not backing down. He's not shot shooting a shot

261
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 4: like he and nothing taking away from.

262
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 1: He's not. He doesn't seem rushed like on the pick.

263
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,719
Speaker 4: And roll, like getting good minutes from the other guys too.

264
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 3: I had a chance to watch him in Boston.

265
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 6: I was at the game live, and a lot of

266
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 6: what y'all already said his maturity, because I'm looking at him,

267
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 6: like some shots he could have took most rookies would

268
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 6: have took.

269
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,719
Speaker 3: He was making the extra pass, he was making the

270
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 3: right shot.

271
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 6: I'm gonna tell you something, if he turns out to

272
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 6: be who we think he can be by the end

273
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 6: of the year, Philly is the most.

274
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 3: Talented team in the East.

275
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 6: Because listen, like, if Joel Embiid is your second best player,

276
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 6: that's saying a lot.

277
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 4: That's saying a lot Tyra and Joe and then he

278
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 4: also and they haven't got Jared McCain back yet either,

279
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 4: So it was, yeah, top of the bottom, could have

280
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 4: been rookie year last year Jared McCain. But yeah, he's

281
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 4: just so explosive. Brou he called a lot off balance.

282
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,319
Speaker 4: I don't know how did in the Boston. I was like,

283
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,839
Speaker 4: I didn't know, I don't know what was going on.

284
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 1: How was that?

285
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 4: And landed it and not like it was a regular

286
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,839
Speaker 4: day and neighbor, I'm like, nah, he's different athletically.

287
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: He he definitely jumps off the page.

288
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: It's kind of crazy when I think about it, because

289
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 2: I think a lot of people thought Scoot Henderson was

290
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,959
Speaker 2: that kind of athlete, yeah, coming into the league, and

291
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 2: it's kind of been proven that he's not.

292
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: Like, he's not that like world.

293
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,079
Speaker 2: Class, like, bro, you can't stay in front of him

294
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 2: and he's going to like jump out the gym, you know,

295
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 2: a sort of Westbrook d Rose like IM.

296
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: I don't want to get crazy.

297
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 4: But that's what they compared him to right time.

298
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: But it's just been remarkable, remarkable to watch.

299
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 2: And I do want to call out Quentin Grimes, who

300
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 2: I think has had a great start to see.

301
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it felt like they played like crazy hardball with

302
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 1: these kids.

303
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 4: Again it said they have they're getting good minutes from

304
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 4: other guys. Uh Bona like he was right for them

305
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 4: later in the stretch, freaking Kelly, you know what I'm saying,

306
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,839
Speaker 4: Like Grimes and Tyres brought them back, but Bona was

307
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 4: the one that kind of like made the plays down

308
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 4: the stretch to get them over the hump to win. Uh.

309
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 4: But yeah, they're making winning plays. Man, It's said Philly

310
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 4: Like like he said, they can go pretty far in

311
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 4: the East if they if they get healthy and start

312
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 4: clicking at the right time. They have, they have the talent.

313
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 3: I think they got the best back quart to the East.

314
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 6: DJ ho come uh uh edgeb if he's Rookie of

315
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 6: the year, They're coming out of the East so.

316
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 3: Games into the season, I'm saying, if he's the year.

317
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 4: He's gonna have to be Rookie of the Year. Though,

318
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 4: Like he's getting enough opportunity, enough shots where ain't nobody

319
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 4: like my pick. I was trying to strategically pick my

320
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 4: rookie of the Year. I looked at Dylan Harper, I

321
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 4: looked at Coop. They're surrounded by so much talent. I'm like,

322
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 4: they're not gonna get a lot of opportunity early on.

323
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 4: I looked at Edgecomb and I was like Joelle and

324
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 4: Tyrese and Pjpg and then Jared mccannam like he ain't

325
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 4: gona get no shots. But a lot of those guys

326
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 4: are out he's gonna plenty, gonna get an opportunity in Utah.

327
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 4: He's let him go. He's not getting the minutes there,

328
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 4: but like VJ is getting the opportunity right now in Philly.

329
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 2: So before we move off of Philly, just I want

330
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 2: to know what y'all think Joel has to show you

331
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 2: in order for you to be like because to me,

332
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 2: I don't think this is a serious conversation if Joel

333
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 2: isn't playing okay. So in terms of progress on the court,

334
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 2: what do you want to see from Joel this season

335
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 2: going into the playoffs where it's like, you know what,

336
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 2: he's gonna go to the playoffs and be an impact player.

337
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 4: I gotta see his just his body, like his movements.

338
00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 4: I'm watching him. The points he's put up, good nomers.

339
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 4: I don't the numbers don't matter.

340
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: He's a genius.

341
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 4: Aid that he's gonna he's gonna. He's just his I

342
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 4: Q he's gonna get you twenty and ten regards, like

343
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 4: he's gonna get to the freeth the line, he's gonna

344
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 4: get his jumper. How he's moving on screens and defensively,

345
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 4: and I've seen he's kind of reluctant to do certain

346
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 4: things Joelle when he's yes, he was when Joel was

347
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 4: locked in, and he's like you're seeing him in Boston

348
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 4: a couple of years ago, able to protect the rim.

349
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 4: When he's able to do that, and he showed me

350
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 4: he can do that, that's when I know he's back

351
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 4: and they're gonna be contented. If he's able to.

352
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: Still be able to move on defense laterally and just at.

353
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 4: The rims he's not because there's no way Czar should

354
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 4: be getting dunks in the game, Like, oh, Joelle, ain't

355
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 4: letting that happen. You know what I'm saying. Nobody's getting

356
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 4: laught dunks, Like there's too many free baskets, not regular seasons.

357
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 4: He might be coasting, but even coasting in the past,

358
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 4: he would.

359
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: Still especially when a young kid kind of tries to

360
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 1: go as you.

361
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 2: Still he would do white side every time they played,

362
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 2: Like if a young kid tries to come at you like,

363
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 2: got to show improved.

364
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: I think he's not trusting his body yet.

365
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 6: What I want to see from Jewel Embiid is when

366
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 6: his minutes go up. I want to see because you know,

367
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 6: he complained about his minutes and he can't be productive

368
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 6: in the minutes he's getting well, Seaney can't when he

369
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 6: started his minutes start to go up. Can he accept

370
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 6: the fact to say, hey, this is Maxi's team? Yeah,

371
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 6: because you know, you know.

372
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 3: When you've been to MVP in this league and you've

373
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 3: been dominant.

374
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 6: Force the process since you can you accept the fact

375
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 6: that this is like his team now?

376
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 4: Because I think he's I think he's I think he's

377
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,399
Speaker 4: passing the torch show. I don't. I'm not saying that

378
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 4: he doesn't care, but I think he's like, Okay, are.

379
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 3: You cool with this rookie what he's doing?

380
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. Can you come to practice?

381
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 6: Can you come into the game and be like, Okay,

382
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,440
Speaker 6: it's the rookie and the young guy's night, or do

383
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 6: you have to.

384
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 4: Be that guy you feel like?

385
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying that that's gonna be the

386
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 6: key as the season goes along for them.

387
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 4: As pretty much, is he gonna be able to play

388
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 4: winning basketball? Yeah, that's pretty much what you're saying. Is

389
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,479
Speaker 4: he gonna be able to adapt to tojust because that's

390
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 4: what it's going to take for them to be a

391
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 4: winning team?

392
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, he has to give himself to something that

393
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: doesn't involve dropping thirty.

394
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, and we'll see if you could do that.

395
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 2: But I do because I feel like there's been so many.

396
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: Surprising results as the season has started. One of the

397
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: things that shocked me.

398
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 2: The Heat not only just off to a three and

399
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:28,439
Speaker 2: one start, the fact that they are the fastest paced

400
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 2: team in the league, right like the Miami Heat, top three,

401
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 2: top five in the offensive efficiency, Like that's kind of

402
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 2: crazy to see. And the Sixers being four and oh

403
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 2: again I thought they were headed for the lottery again.

404
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 2: But like the fact that these guys are four and

405
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 2: oh and their young guys are doing that.

406
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just super surprised about that.

407
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, what's more shock un to you the.

408
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 2: Miami piece, the Miami like the style of play, because

409
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 2: I don't know, I guess I'm just so used to

410
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 2: spol when one kind of thing where it's.

411
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 1: Kind of like the half court offense and the beautiful

412
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: game and the ball movement and all of that.

413
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 2: But now they're just like, Bro, we're gonna play it.

414
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 2: We're gonna be like the Pacers last year. We don't

415
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,959
Speaker 2: have a Hall of Burton. We're just doing it collectively.

416
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 4: Damn is shooting three and this is what Taler be out.

417
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is what Tyler hero being.

418
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 2: I feel like a lot of times that he'd be

419
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 2: having the best moments when Taler heroes not there.

420
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 3: But whatever.

421
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 4: Both both are shocking to me. But I think if

422
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 4: you would have told me what the Sixers schedule was,

423
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 4: I would say, you know, they have Boston is not Boston.

424
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 4: They could have beat Boston DC. So but I think

425
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 4: they could have been those team teams Miami being number

426
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 4: one and fastbreak points and then be in New York. Yeah,

427
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 4: you know without Taler hero tough, that's like that. But

428
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 4: both both are surprising to me. But Miami said being

429
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 4: in a down year being number one in pace and

430
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 4: fast break points and points per game and rebound the

431
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 4: top three in points and rebounds per game. That's that's

432
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 4: shocking to me. I suppose got some he's got those

433
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 4: guys in a well.

434
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 6: It's not shocking for me that that's one of the

435
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:09,120
Speaker 6: top personel though still he's still he's shown me he's

436
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 6: one of the top two or three coaches over the

437
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 6: last six seven years. So that's not surprising me that

438
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 6: Mihami team he led to the finals as a as

439
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 6: a playing team. I mean, come on, that's that's just

440
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 6: typical right here. So that's not surprising me. Philly is

441
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 6: surprising for me because when I come into the season,

442
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 6: PG not playing McCain's not playing Embeid is on minutes restriction.

443
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,880
Speaker 6: You know, no, by no means that I think Maxie

444
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 6: will be as dominant as and a rookie out here,

445
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 6: taking all the shine away from a guy who we

446
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 6: already held as one of the best rookies to come

447
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 6: in in Cooper Flag.

448
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 3: And so you know, that's that's shocking for me right now.

449
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 2: So some other major storylines to start the season, okayc

450
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 2: looks like okay, see even without ju Yeah, I mean

451
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 2: shay Is you know, he's gonna carry a load on

452
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 2: offense kind of no matter.

453
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 4: What, they've been in a lot of close games, Bro,

454
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 4: they look like, Okay, they're winning games, they're five and zero,

455
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 4: but they've been some really close games and without jub

456
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 4: of course, okay, it's without j But there are some

457
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,199
Speaker 4: kids that have been surprised that k Aj Mitchell has

458
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 4: been been really good.

459
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 1: Bro.

460
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 2: He was getting finals minutes, which is just crazy, Like

461
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 2: like a lot of people who love the NBA have

462
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,920
Speaker 2: never even heard of a kid and now he's in

463
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 2: a prominent role. Of feels like these young kids just

464
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 2: grow on trees for these guys, and it's kind of

465
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 2: like a plug and play situation.

466
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 4: I think through the draft, bro, they got a lot

467
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 4: of goal through the draft. They've drafted very well.

468
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 1: And they're still guarding the hell lot of people, which

469
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: is to be expected.

470
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 2: And yeah, I'm not surprised that the games are a

471
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 2: little bit closer, but they do kind of got that

472
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 2: championship pedigree, and you guys can speak to this that

473
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,120
Speaker 2: year after you win the championship, you kind of take

474
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,679
Speaker 2: a different approach to the regular season.

475
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 4: It's even harder on p knows this like you had

476
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 4: a bigger target on your back. Yes, everybody's giving you

477
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 4: their best shot. Hence why they're in those close games.

478
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 4: Sack had this game then, I don't know how they

479
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 4: fumbled it. Rust been playing well too. Russ had eighteen

480
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 4: other night, sixteen a night like coming off the bench

481
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,400
Speaker 4: with the Kings. But the Kings are up the whole game.

482
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,880
Speaker 4: They don't make sense to me. They're like their roster build,

483
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 4: what they.

484
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: Got going on. But it's an unbalanced squad.

485
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 4: But they were They were supposed to win that game tonight.

486
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,239
Speaker 4: But champions that they find a way to win. Man,

487
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 4: and they got Aaron Wiggins giving him a plus, you know,

488
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 4: Sja doing what he does. Aj Mitchell knocking down shots

489
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,640
Speaker 4: like Alex Scrusso, hitting the game win like three ball

490
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,440
Speaker 4: give give them the lead. So they find it in

491
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 4: many different in various ways. Lou Dort, you know, doing

492
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 4: what he does. So are they the favorite and ret

493
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 4: with the West?

494
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 2: To me, I mean, yeah, yeah, it seems like you

495
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 2: guys look at the East as a toss up.

496
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 4: It's going through the West.

497
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 1: It's ok C the clear favorite to come out of

498
00:22:59,480 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: the West.

499
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 3: Is without a doubt. They're young, they got better.

500
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 6: And what I mean by that within the development because

501
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 6: when I'm seeing from Chet Hong girl, he looks better,

502
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 6: you know, when I'm seeing from gods like women Wiggins,

503
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 6: he looks better. And SGA is gonna be Sga. The

504
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 6: thing about when you come off a championship, and I

505
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,199
Speaker 6: remember the year after we won, and you can attest

506
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 6: to this, Uh, Danny, we didn't think we can win anymore.

507
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 3: We knew we can win.

508
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, we'll look up, we be

509
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 6: down fifteen, Yeah, we got it.

510
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 3: Just walk them down.

511
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 4: You're no fear of losing. Like, there's no fear of losing.

512
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,640
Speaker 4: You're always in the game. Now, you're always in the game.

513
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 6: Listen, all right, we're gonna cut this down to ten

514
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 6: at the end of the third, then by like six

515
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 6: minutes to go in the fourth, we're just gonna be

516
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 6: down to and we got this.

517
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 3: Don't worry about it.

518
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 1: What do you think that is?

519
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 2: Do you think that's just as a group, you've come

520
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 2: through so many different situations that any situation feels doable.

521
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 6: When you win a championship, eighty two games on the

522
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 6: playoff run, you've been in everything.

523
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 3: Are the battle pressure?

524
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 6: Yes, Like you don't get you don't panic, right, you

525
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. Like we we was down twenty

526
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 6: to the Lakers in LA in the finals, were like,

527
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 6: all right, we're gonna walk them down.

528
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 4: Eddie House and race.

529
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 6: We're gonna race this league. So you go through stuff

530
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 6: like that in the regular season, you're like, we're down

531
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 6: twenty to them.

532
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 3: What we're doing in the.

533
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,160
Speaker 6: Time out, this is the conversation. What we're doing, were

534
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 6: barking each other. Let's stop playing.

535
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 4: And that's what I feel like.

536
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 6: Okay, see saying they you know, they first game of

537
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 6: the season, they down all game, in the last four

538
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 6: minutes overtime, SGA hit big shots.

539
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 3: Oh let's go home. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. Now.

540
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 4: They're a clear favorite, for sure, and it is a

541
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 4: batt especially when you bring the same group back to following.

542
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 4: A lot of groups don't get a chance to keep

543
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 4: the same team together, entire the same group, you know

544
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 4: for the following. You're just that much more confident in

545
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 4: your crew here and no fear of anybody else out there,

546
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 4: always in the game. But I will say, even though

547
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 4: they are a clear favorite, I think there's some teams

548
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 4: that are close. I do believe that Denver I think

549
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 4: is really close, even though they lost the Golden State

550
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 4: the other night. I like the pieces that they picked

551
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 4: up what they got, and I think I think Golden

552
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 4: State has been playing really well lately.

553
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 1: Man.

554
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 4: I'm not saying that they're close, but I think they're

555
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 4: playing really well. There's a matchup problem for certain teams.

556
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 4: I don't think they match up for OKC, but their

557
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 4: matchup problem for like a Denver maybe.

558
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 2: Yes, I think they're a tough matchup for Denver because

559
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 2: I just think they're the only team that Denver just

560
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 2: they're gonna have a hard time stopping them, because like

561
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 2: whenever they do the shit where they bring Joker out

562
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 2: to thirty fucking feet, it's like, bro, what it is

563
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 2: he's really supposed to be doing against Steph Curry in

564
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 2: that moment?

565
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 3: Right?

566
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 2: I think that's the only team that kind of presents

567
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 2: that issue in that way. Like in other ways, like

568
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 2: they kind of figured out how to play defense around

569
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 2: Joe could, but like with Steph, it's like this, this

570
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 2: dude could make a thirty, like he can and will

571
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 2: and like we know this, And so I think that

572
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 2: presents a tough problem for them.

573
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: And I think the Warriors.

574
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 2: To me, the Warriors and the Nuggets are the second

575
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 2: and third best teams in the league.

576
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,959
Speaker 4: I think that the Wars can get I think they

577
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 4: can get there if the matchups are right, you know,

578
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 4: I think full stop. I think I think Denver is

579
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 4: the closest to okay See, but nobody else is close

580
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 4: to okay See. But I think Denver could also lose

581
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 4: to any They can lose to Golden State in a

582
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:39,880
Speaker 4: seven game series they could lose to I think them

583
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 4: and my sleeper usaid philis your sleeper. I think san

584
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 4: Antonio is my sleeper, bro. Like, I think they're gonna

585
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 4: be what you mean? What you mean like they're gonna

586
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 4: be a team to shock some teams in the West.

587
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 6: What you mean, They're not gonna come out of the

588
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 6: West like like make the playoffs or I think they

589
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 6: could win. I think it went around to win around.

590
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 3: His finals this year.

591
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 4: I think they could if they match ups are right,

592
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 4: I think they could beat like a Houston, you know

593
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 4: what I'm saying, They could be, Like I don't know what.

594
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: Homes coming out, bro on some they hear a.

595
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 4: Fox yet Bro. Yeah, they got Jeremy Sohan on the bench,

596
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. That's why they don't get

597
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 4: that far. But I think they can at least they

598
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 4: get to play some win one or two, depend on

599
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 4: the matchups.

600
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,879
Speaker 6: When the lights come on and they start getting brighter

601
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 6: and they start getting eyed and they look up like

602
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,120
Speaker 6: it's just like it's something about that experience.

603
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 4: I get you. But if they match up with a Dallas,

604
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 4: I feel like they can be a Dallas. They can

605
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 4: beat a Houston, but I feel like they're young enough

606
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 4: to beat like.

607
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 6: Uh Man, Denver, okay see is the class of the West. Yeah,

608
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 6: okay See has a little bit of fear. Like they

609
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 6: don't fear nobody because you're the champs, but Denver is

610
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 6: on their mind because Denver took him seven.

611
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 4: Games and it got better. Gordon, Yeah.

612
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: Problem and one of the like he was dealing with,

613
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 1: like a shoulder he was dealing with.

614
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 6: Like they got better, We got the best player in

615
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 6: the league.

616
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 3: They feel Denver got the best player.

617
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 1: You gotta feel that way for sure.

618
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 2: Like I don't know, man, and I like the way

619
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 2: Jamal Murray has come out to like normally the slowest

620
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,719
Speaker 2: starts to his regular seasons. But it's clear like somebody

621
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 2: put it in his mind that he needs to like

622
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 2: try hard to start the season and he's doing it.

623
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 3: You see, the best non All Star in the league,

624
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 3: one of them just to never make an All Star.

625
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,439
Speaker 4: He's up there. Yeah, I just I just love him.

626
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 4: Other guys have made Like the other guys.

627
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 3: He's the best player to never make the All Star

628
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 3: in the league right now.

629
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 2: For sure, when you think about like the run he

630
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 2: had in the playoffs for Denvers championship run.

631
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: He's got to be up.

632
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 2: He was like a dominant player. You know, he was

633
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 2: dominant that one year against y'all. He could have missed against.

634
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 4: You guys, even she threw at them.

635
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think I think those three teams, to

636
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 2: me are the best three teams in the West.

637
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 1: I do.

638
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 2: I think both Denver and Golden State could beat okay

639
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 2: See in the series. Not to say I'm gonna pick them,

640
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 2: I'm just saying.

641
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 3: Got nothing from Minnesota.

642
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 4: Nothing, Don't I think they I think they know they

643
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 4: were a team that they weren't supposed to Western.

644
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 1: They just made the lineup series against.

645
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 4: Cons finals last year. But the year before, yeah they

646
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 4: were I thought they were better the year before.

647
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 3: So no, nothing from Minnesota.

648
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: I don't k them.

649
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 4: They were good. They were better with the double big

650
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 4: with Cat and Gobert with the play. I don't play

651
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 4: Denver to me when they lost Cats, not that Cat's

652
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 4: better than Joyce. I think it's a better matchup for

653
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 4: the Denver for Denver. They were a better matchup for

654
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 4: Denver with Cat, I think. So, I just think they

655
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 4: got lucky against because they had unhealthy Golden State and

656
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 4: they beat the Lakers. So they got to the Western

657
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 4: Confers Finals and the damn got something in the Western

658
00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 4: cons Final.

659
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: I think them Houston, they did right.

660
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 4: They get one game, they get the Clippers.

661
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 1: To me, they're all in the same group.

662
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 4: Leagas, Clippers, Minnesota.

663
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 3: Minnesota is a classic the way that they did the

664
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 3: Lakers last year. Don't put them in the.

665
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 4: Same It's gonna be a different I think it's be

666
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 4: different than.

667
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 6: I'm giving credit. Is an m VP candidate for sure.

668
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 6: I'm putting them ahead of the Lakers, and I'm putting

669
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 6: them ahead of the Clippers.

670
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Clippers.

671
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 4: They headed the Clippers, but I think the Lakers, I

672
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 4: think because they lost some pieces too, Nickle Alexander Walker bros.

673
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 4: A piece that they lost very important, and Lakers getting

674
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 4: down Drey and doesn't Gobert is not gonna look like

675
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 4: World Chamberlain anymore. Oh, I'm not saying thirty and twenty

676
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 4: because they had no bigs. They wouldn't they wouldn't play

677
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 4: Jackson Hayes. For the love of guy. They threwing Kleeber

678
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 4: for a half a second.

679
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 1: Jackson Hayes was just so long.

680
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 6: Every year with It's gonna be the hype train is

681
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 6: gonna come, but they're gonna get I think they're the.

682
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 4: Same level up.

683
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 1: Episode the Lake.

684
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:21,719
Speaker 4: This rerun depends on that though they are very offensively

685
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 4: explosive with Luca gotta say, you gotta be. I think

686
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 4: I'm not saying they're gonna win it this year, but

687
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 4: I think they're gonna better than last year. Not that

688
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 4: eight is a difference maker, but he changes things for

689
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 4: them inside, like at least a rebounder of somebody that

690
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 4: can absolute Rudy Gobert. You know what I'm saying. Rudy

691
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 4: just ain't gonna be on the glass killing. So it

692
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 4: depends on matchups. They're not gonna be Houston, They're not

693
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 4: gonna be Golden State. They're not gonna be nobody there.

694
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 2: Also, I think when I think you're under rating two

695
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 2: is skinny Luca, I think he literally does look better.

696
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 2: He's playing different, like he's actually getting.

697
00:31:55,720 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 3: To the stop the same Luca thirty nine and nine.

698
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 3: I know the defense. Who the Lakers can be Houston?

699
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely, Noah.

700
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 3: I just don't think they're young enough or athletic enough

701
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 3: for Houston.

702
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 1: So the Lakers will they even make the player like.

703
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 3: We gotta worry about the Lakers health, which is that's

704
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 3: a factor.

705
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: It's a big factor.

706
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 3: And then defensively, they can't guard in the playoffs. They can't.

707
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 3: They have problems with these young athletes for.

708
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 4: Sure, But you got also no point guard in Houston.

709
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 4: They relying on Katie a lot. To Katie's health is

710
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 4: a is a. He's a big part of that health.

711
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 6: He's been healthy relatively his whole career except for the achilles.

712
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 6: What's the dynamic gonna be when le Bron comes back

713
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 6: for the Lakers? What's that dynamic? Now they're getting used

714
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 6: to playing what they're about to play with him for

715
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 6: another like a month. So what changes when he walks

716
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,280
Speaker 6: on the court. That's now you now you got to

717
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 6: relearn how to play again.

718
00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 4: Maybe so, But I think they had a good feel

719
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 4: forlast year. They looked good. They look better than if.

720
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 4: I was like, I didn't think it was gonna work.

721
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 4: Then when they got together, they made it look solid.

722
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: We think that Bron and Luca things.

723
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 4: God, I don't think it's gonna work.

724
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: It didn't work. An it worked.

725
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 4: They played well. How did it worked? They played well together.

726
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 3: If it works, you get out of the first round, right.

727
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 4: So a lot of them they were m VP candidate.

728
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 4: The reason they lost first round.

729
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 3: Sorry, well.

730
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 4: Aar Ar was not playing his same type of basketball

731
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 4: when the playoffs happened. That's why.

732
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 3: This year's Yeah, so.

733
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 4: If he played, if he plays better like he's been playing,

734
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 4: he's after thirty five points the last four games. That's

735
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 4: of course without Bron and Luca, but all three of

736
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 4: them together were playing very well before the injuries happened

737
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 4: and before the playoffs started last year.

738
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 2: To me, the MVP candidate who's twenties, it was in

739
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 2: his twenties, who just got his extension, he has.

740
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 1: To play like an m v P, Luca, and if

741
00:33:58,600 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: he plays like.

742
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 3: An m v P, I think for the last five

743
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 3: years he.

744
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 2: Didn't play like in the playoffs against Minnesota, he did

745
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 2: not play like an m v P, and I think

746
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 2: it was like he was dealing with an injury.

747
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,880
Speaker 4: He wasn't hit him and Bron showed up. I think

748
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 4: was the one that was like the third man, like

749
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 4: they were expecting a little bit more from him and

750
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 4: Ruey again, they also didn't have a big man like

751
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 4: they didn't have a big man.

752
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I stopped making excuses for like Bron and Luca.

753
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 4: Well, they put up numbers. They put numbers.

754
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,319
Speaker 1: So the Lakers are not gonna make the playoffs this year.

755
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,280
Speaker 3: They will be a playing team once again.

756
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 4: That's because of injury. I think because injuries.

757
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 3: But again, yeah, what what changed in the last year?

758
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:42,320
Speaker 1: This dude.

759
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:44,880
Speaker 4: Fifteen?

760
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:45,800
Speaker 1: It's too funny.

761
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 3: Austin Reeves will not average thirty for the rest of

762
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:49,439
Speaker 3: the season.

763
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 1: We know that.

764
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 4: Whoever twenty two, twenty three, he was twenty two last year.

765
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, he'll be in his twenties. Okay, it's gonna be

766
00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 6: around thirty. Bron, It's gonna be in and out of

767
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 6: the line. It's gonna be chemistry issues.

768
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 3: That's why.

769
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 6: Because they're gonna have to play one way with Albron

770
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 6: and one way with them. They're gonna be confused sometimes

771
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 6: playoffs start. They're not gonna have an identity. When the

772
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 6: playoffs come, we ain't gonna know who they are.

773
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,959
Speaker 1: No, Seriously, I think the cut very.

774
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 2: Very very skeptical of eight and just generally, but Austin

775
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 2: Reeves has been like actually trying to develop some kind

776
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,359
Speaker 2: of chemistry with him and actually like passing the rock,

777
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 2: which hasn't been the case with anybody else.

778
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:32,280
Speaker 1: Again, it's four games.

779
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 2: It's early, Like, I like a lot of Lakers fans

780
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 2: get tired of watching this got you fadeaways from three

781
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 2: feet away from the basket.

782
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:40,799
Speaker 1: When you just go up strong and try to dunk

783
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: it on somebody. But it's not his game, man, Bro,

784
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 1: he's seven ft tall. Did not be his game going

785
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: up strong.

786
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 4: I mean, Bro, he's showing I say, he's saying he

787
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 4: shoots mid range.

788
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 1: That's what he's going to, just mid ranges and.

789
00:35:58,480 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 4: Saying just dunk on people like that's not.

790
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: Try to don't try to get fouled. I got contact.

791
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: You know what.

792
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 4: He's been. He's been active. Bro. So you guy, no,

793
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 4: I wasn't.

794
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 1: You are dominating guy.

795
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 4: I think he was good in Phoenix. He's showing his

796
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 4: approach to the game. This year is a lot different

797
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 4: than it was when he was in Portland and then

798
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 4: his last year in Phoenix.

799
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 1: I just I just know one time he was acting

800
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,959
Speaker 1: like what his goals for his career are? He said,

801
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: get to my second contract.

802
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 4: He's got the guy.

803
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 1: He's got into the second contract. He's reached his career.

804
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 4: He probably how long ago is that year? Second third, twenty.

805
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 1: Strike you as a very motivated guy.

806
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 4: This year, he looks more motivated, more motivated than before. Yeah,

807
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 4: I'm saying like twenty two, fifteen, sixteen eight, Like he's

808
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 4: more active in the last defensive, he's running the floor.

809
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 4: You know, is he the same ad we've seen the phoenix?

810
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:51,879
Speaker 4: Maybe not, but he's showing more than what I've seen

811
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,839
Speaker 4: in Portland and the last year. Like people just saying

812
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 4: he has no motor like, he's actually showing that he cares.

813
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 4: So I'm like, all right, that shows life. Now you

814
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 4: can get everybody healthy and make the game easy for him.

815
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,439
Speaker 4: You got Bron, Luke and r all together on the floor.

816
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 4: He's not getting number but lay ups, and he's gon't

817
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:08,799
Speaker 4: get easy drop off so where he can be wide

818
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 4: open all the time.

819
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 1: I hope you're right.

820
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 6: He's gonna be lucky to get the ball when all

821
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:14,439
Speaker 6: three of them get on the court.

822
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 4: For sure. Again, make my rebounds offensive opportunity like offense rebounds.

823
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 6: I can't wait until this happens because they like no seriously,

824
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 6: because I want to be like, all right, where's the

825
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,840
Speaker 6: aiding that's gonna pout when he doesn't get the ball, Like.

826
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 4: We saw, that's gonna be a big testament of.

827
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 6: Who he is when he's not like he's getting the

828
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:34,280
Speaker 6: ball now, everything is fine and dandy.

829
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 3: He's happy, he's eating.

830
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 6: Now when he goes games where the touches aren't there,

831
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 6: this is that. This is what I want to see,

832
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 6: because that's what I saw in Phoenix. He was complaining

833
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,919
Speaker 6: he wasn't getting the ball, he wasn't getting touches. What's

834
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 6: gonna happen when we see that again? You go understand,

835
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,359
Speaker 6: he's still a young guy. He's looking at all the guys.

836
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,360
Speaker 6: Think about this, He's looking at all the guys he

837
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 6: came in with that got them contracts. He didn't get it.

838
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 6: He was the number one pick. Like, there's some kind

839
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 6: of salt to that salty. If I'm here, I'm like, man,

840
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 6: I was the number one pick. I should be making

841
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 6: two hundred million right now.

842
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, Luca just got it.

843
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 3: Man, come on, I'll.

844
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,400
Speaker 6: Feel a certain way if I don't have this opportunity.

845
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 6: And this is it right now in front of him.

846
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: So Paul once again is a Lakers skeptic.

847
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 3: I'm just going off with the last three rightfully something rightfully.

848
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 6: I mean, look, I'm just going off the first round

849
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,800
Speaker 6: exits over the last three years got you.

850
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 2: We got to get what is probably the biggest story

851
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 2: of the season, probably the most exciting story for the

852
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 2: NBA's future, in terms of getting people excited about a

853
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:44,919
Speaker 2: player that literally nobody's ever seen before, and that's Victor

854
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 2: Weber Yama who he's averaging thirty one thirteen revs, five blocks.

855
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: Crazy.

856
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's inarguable to say that he's

857
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,359
Speaker 2: been one of the best players. Like you can count

858
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 2: on one hand the amount of NBA players who who

859
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 2: can make an argument that they've been as good as

860
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:10,360
Speaker 2: Wemby to start the season, which is crazy.

861
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 1: What's it been like the watching man?

862
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 6: I mean, he's he's entered the territory to where you

863
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:25,280
Speaker 6: don't say his whole name anymore. He just said, like seriously,

864
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 6: like you when players are just cool, and they like

865
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 6: when players start getting great, like bron this is Wimby,

866
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 6: Like you just said, there's no more just Wmby, that's it.

867
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,280
Speaker 3: And he's looks like a created two K player.

868
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 6: It's getting ridiculous and it's almost getting scary to watch

869
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 6: this kid every single night to say, Hey, I don't know,

870
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,359
Speaker 6: this kid might be the face of the league after

871
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 6: this year is over.

872
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, seriously, that's the direction he's.

873
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 4: If he stays healthy, bro, consistent in his drive, he

874
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 4: could be the best big to lace him up. Bro,

875
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 4: Like we've never seen anything I can get. He can

876
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 4: get like four or five m vps. Yeah, two or

877
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:21,280
Speaker 4: three championships if he stays healthy for the next ten years.

878
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,919
Speaker 4: The numbers when he looked, Bro, the numbers he's putting

879
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 4: up's not against like Anthony Davis is the guy he's

880
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 4: playing against. He was a Defensive Player of the Year candidate.

881
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 1: To me, I think the.

882
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 2: Last young guy that's looked this dominant at this stage

883
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 2: to me is Lebron. So to me, he's the best

884
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 2: NBA prospect since Lebron, which is like kind.

885
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 4: Of crazy to say.

886
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 2: He's not far faster, Like at worst, we think Lebron

887
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 2: at worst is like the second or third best player.

888
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 5: Ever, you know what I'm saying, Like, that's that's kind

889
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 5: of basically he could be the best player ever.

890
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 3: That's when he right now, he's the most talented player I've.

891
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,799
Speaker 4: Ever seen, right seven four hand on the ball.

892
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 3: He's the most talented player right now that I've ever seen.

893
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,719
Speaker 1: And I think when he first came a lot of

894
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,719
Speaker 1: people were getting excited about the you know, the three

895
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 1: pointers and oh he could be a KD type And

896
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 1: I'm like, guys, like, stop it. There's only one KD.

897
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 4: I said the same, and he's surpassing that. There's never

898
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 4: gonna be another Kevin Durrett. This motherfucker is a different.

899
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,680
Speaker 4: He's a he's a different what he's doing this year.

900
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 2: And I saw this somewhere I forget, but like, I

901
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 2: think his average shot distance last year was eighteen feet

902
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:46,319
Speaker 2: or nineteen feet this year is eleven feet.

903
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: So he's living closer to the basket.

904
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, just like, Bro, like, you're making yourself way harder

905
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 2: to stop when you're that big. Get to within eight

906
00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 2: feet and nobody can contest your shots.

907
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 4: More muscle, and he continue to do that.

908
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,800
Speaker 3: Man, he's given me k D Janni's hybrid.

909
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, this is a modern day will Bro.

910
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 2: And remember when Gianna's first got drafted, he was a

911
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:15,200
Speaker 2: freaking real thing.

912
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: He was a too thick.

913
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,759
Speaker 6: Could you imagine if he stays on that program, that

914
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 6: Gianni's weight program.

915
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 1: He got his DS with Janni's Damn, I'm.

916
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 3: Gonna stop watching.

917
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:29,319
Speaker 4: I'm you know, how crazy Gianna's had a jumper, like you.

918
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:34,720
Speaker 1: Know, talking yeah, facts to jump so feathery soft already.

919
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 2: You know he makes his free throw, so that's another thing,

920
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 2: like you can't just foul this dude when he gets

921
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:41,240
Speaker 2: close to the basket.

922
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 4: So the questions he's gonna score? How soon do you

923
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 4: see him winning a championship? Do you think they? Do

924
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 4: you think that they could win one this year?

925
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: I think championship.

926
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:55,800
Speaker 2: I don't think that. I don't think that's in the

927
00:42:55,880 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 2: cards for them this year. I think something stra.

928
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 4: Would you'd be very surprised if they won one.

929
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 3: This year's super surprised.

930
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 2: I said to me, at best, this could be like

931
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:13,040
Speaker 2: a broun in O seven situation where he makes like

932
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 2: a surprising finals run, or in this guy's case.

933
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 4: Western Conference finals. I'd be surprised.

934
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 2: And I think to make it to the Western Conference

935
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 2: finals would be the equivalent of with Brounland. So and

936
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 2: then you run into a team that's just got too

937
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,360
Speaker 2: many vets, too many experience.

938
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 3: And you know you do that.

939
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 2: But I don't think that's crazily, especially as much as

940
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 2: motherfuckers get injured these days, this is crazy.

941
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 3: If Winby like.

942
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 6: When if Winby won the title this year, this year,

943
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 6: he will be already in the conversation, all right.

944
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,920
Speaker 4: But that would I would be crazy. I could see

945
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,040
Speaker 4: them and said it would be surprising for them to

946
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 4: get to the finals, but I think they could get

947
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 4: to the Western Conference finals. Depending on that, that would

948
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,360
Speaker 4: be like an over achievement. But I don't think it

949
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:07,080
Speaker 4: would be crazy far fit. So with the West, you

950
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 4: just don't know who's gonna be healthy, went like, so, let's.

951
00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 1: Name the guys.

952
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 2: Let's just name the guys in the NBA that that

953
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,360
Speaker 2: we think Wenby is right there. Because to me, I

954
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 2: think Jokic, SGH, Johanna's.

955
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,359
Speaker 1: And Luca. I think, to me, those guys are locked

956
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 1: into the top five, like the top so I have, I.

957
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 4: Had Luca, Sga, I had Jo jokis one s so

958
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 4: I've had MVP votes. If I had to guess before

959
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 4: the season started, right now, I'm saying Sja. But I

960
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 4: had Jokic. I thought since he lost last year he'd

961
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 4: come back on a tear come back this year. But

962
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:47,879
Speaker 4: right now Sja is balling. SGA always one and two

963
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 4: at three. I think I had Luca, But right now

964
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,880
Speaker 4: Yannis is looking right now is kind of winning that

965
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 4: Lucas out right now. But even before he was out,

966
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 4: Luca was getting to the chicken. He was getting bucks

967
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 4: like so Luca, it could be for But right now,

968
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:06,080
Speaker 4: Wenby could be at that fourth spot right now after

969
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:08,320
Speaker 4: he's showing.

970
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 2: If he's playing like he's playing on offense, and he's

971
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 2: obviously the best defensive playing in the NBA, it's hard

972
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:18,040
Speaker 2: to argue that like he's not just right there.

973
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:19,399
Speaker 3: He's in there.

974
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 6: He's going to lead the league in blocks, He's gonna

975
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:25,879
Speaker 6: be top four five and rebounds probably could be number one.

976
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 6: And if he continues to score like this, this is

977
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,359
Speaker 6: this is incredible, this is this is like he's he's

978
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:34,800
Speaker 6: he's already a top five player if he's healthy, tops

979
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 6: top five player, there's no doubt about it. He's top

980
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 6: five when if he stays healthy.

981
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 4: I didn't expect him to come out, especially being off

982
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,800
Speaker 4: for six months he had the blood clode issue. I

983
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 4: thought he's gonna take him some time to get into Nah,

984
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:49,839
Speaker 4: he came.

985
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 1: We got to ask what the hell happened? When they

986
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 1: hung out?

987
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 6: He went, this is what he did this summer. His

988
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 6: summer was filled with he went to go see uh

989
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:03,760
Speaker 6: the the monks. He went to go pray with the monks.

990
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:08,080
Speaker 6: He went to counseling with KG Yeah, and he tutored

991
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,400
Speaker 6: with Tim Duncan, what did you expect?

992
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:17,440
Speaker 4: I'm second six months over hooping all but explains it

993
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:17,759
Speaker 4: all right.

994
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 2: So we started the top of the show talking about

995
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:25,200
Speaker 2: some of the crazier performances that have already happened this season,

996
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 2: and just to run them off quickly, shay yojis Alexander

997
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 2: has given you a fifty five pointer. Aaron Gordon dropping

998
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 2: fifty His confidence in his jump shot is so crazy.

999
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 4: For last year forty plus, he's a forty percent.

1000
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,080
Speaker 1: And he's taking them off the dribble was kind of

1001
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 1: crazy transition.

1002
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 2: I think Jalen Brown is going to have a lot

1003
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,000
Speaker 2: of these forty point nights, but he's gonna have a

1004
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 2: lot of them thirty attempt nights.

1005
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: He's gonna have a lot of Ai Yeah, Steph.

1006
00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:01,359
Speaker 2: Of course with the forty two piece MAXI pretty much

1007
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 2: every single game has been a banner game for the

1008
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 2: reason I thought I thought I was looking at some

1009
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,520
Speaker 2: kind of type of when I looked at my fifty one,

1010
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 2: seeing that he dropped fifty one. Of course, Giannis has

1011
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:17,359
Speaker 2: been on a tier and Edwards already has a forty

1012
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,240
Speaker 2: spot even though he's already out camp Thomas.

1013
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:21,800
Speaker 1: Where are you guys with Cam Thomas.

1014
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 4: He's a very talented scorer, but you gotta do more

1015
00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:29,799
Speaker 4: than score to get paid. He's smaller too, so he's

1016
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:32,560
Speaker 4: not that all you do is score and he's a

1017
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:33,800
Speaker 4: small score Like its.

1018
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,759
Speaker 1: Never like you literally liven't do anything else the.

1019
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 4: Team that's not really winning. So it's like affecting anything who.

1020
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 1: Has already had a forty nine point game. Of course,

1021
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: Wenby like just being just this.

1022
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 4: Is a lot of forty and fifty balls throughout the

1023
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 4: league first.

1024
00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:48,520
Speaker 3: Week in a season two.

1025
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's just showing me that it's saying one of

1026
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,160
Speaker 6: two things that the players are either getting better or

1027
00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:56,279
Speaker 6: the defense is getting work.

1028
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I don't want to sound like old head

1029
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:02,239
Speaker 4: bro god hate on the d. It was to get

1030
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 4: fifty back in the day, That's what I'm saying, Like

1031
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:05,920
Speaker 4: not everybody, you know, it was very hard to get,

1032
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 4: like specialty, like it was a special night to get

1033
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 4: and then next you know, everybody getting fifty ball. It's

1034
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 4: like is the defense getting like I think I think

1035
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:19,439
Speaker 4: it's just a lot of the pace, the pace, the face,

1036
00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,520
Speaker 4: guys feeding, finding the hothand more.

1037
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:22,720
Speaker 1: I think it is the pace.

1038
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 2: I think it's people's willingness to take mad threes and

1039
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,319
Speaker 2: so if you do have a hot night, you end

1040
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 2: up getting the points right.

1041
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 1: People's ability, like.

1042
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:31,960
Speaker 4: Because they only give it back. In the day, it

1043
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:33,319
Speaker 4: was only the certain guys that we shooting the ball.

1044
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 4: It was like always rod players, how we're going to

1045
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 4: feed him that your foul.

1046
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:38,719
Speaker 1: Bait has to matter.

1047
00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,680
Speaker 2: But like you know, I kind of came of age

1048
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 2: watching basketball, like you know, basically the second three peat,

1049
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 2: bulls onward, and I remember the ninety nine first round

1050
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 2: series between the Heat and the Knicks.

1051
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,880
Speaker 1: Routine league games are finishing in the sixties.

1052
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:02,359
Speaker 4: Sixties, it was a lot slower of court, like rush lucky,

1053
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 4: you get an eighty ninety. Now some of the team's

1054
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,840
Speaker 4: average one forty. I forget who said that average thirty forty.

1055
00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:10,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's just shary.

1056
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's waiting one thirty.

1057
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1058
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:17,799
Speaker 4: Man. So yeah, combination of both talent, they getting more

1059
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,160
Speaker 4: talented to getting better, but defenses.

1060
00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 1: Which did you rather play in the ever you came

1061
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 1: in or the ever you came.

1062
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,640
Speaker 4: Out of right now because you.

1063
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:35,799
Speaker 6: You have, man, I'll be playing longer. I mean, think

1064
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 6: about it. We're looking at an era where k D, Steph,

1065
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,320
Speaker 6: and Bron are still averaging twenty five plus points a

1066
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:45,640
Speaker 6: game at thirty seven. Yeah, because of the lack of

1067
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,800
Speaker 6: like you know, they don't have the physicality and what

1068
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,120
Speaker 6: it used to be in you know, genetics. The players

1069
00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:54,040
Speaker 6: are getting better and they playing longer. That's always in

1070
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 6: a small ball.

1071
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, So yeah, I like that. I like the era.

1072
00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:02,480
Speaker 2: Now, all right, I'm definitely excited to talk to you

1073
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:03,800
Speaker 2: guys about this next.

1074
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:07,960
Speaker 1: Thing because you know, you guys have had great careers.

1075
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:09,840
Speaker 2: Not only that, but you guys have played with a

1076
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:13,600
Speaker 2: bunch of like incredible NBA legends.

1077
00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 1: Literally in your careers.

1078
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:21,000
Speaker 2: And on the new Netflix series starting five, the question

1079
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 2: of whether k D would get a statue for any

1080
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:27,720
Speaker 2: of the teams that he's played for and his career

1081
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 2: came up, and I'd love to hear what you guys

1082
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:35,319
Speaker 2: think about where should KD get a statue and where

1083
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:35,800
Speaker 2: should it be.

1084
00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 6: He's getting two statues, okay one and okac for establishing

1085
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,200
Speaker 6: that franchise to where it is today. He was an

1086
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:48,920
Speaker 6: MVP there. He carried that franchise and made him relevant.

1087
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:52,440
Speaker 6: We all know that when he goes back there, he

1088
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 6: should have got a standing ovation. They bowed him, but

1089
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,240
Speaker 6: that's you know, that'll change his time and they forget

1090
00:50:58,760 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 6: and all of that.

1091
00:50:59,320 --> 00:50:59,640
Speaker 1: But he is.

1092
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 6: Stylelis with Okay, see a culture because when you went

1093
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:04,680
Speaker 6: there in the playoffs, he made that place a place.

1094
00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:07,759
Speaker 3: It's a place to play rock. So he made that

1095
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:08,440
Speaker 3: that place.

1096
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:11,440
Speaker 6: He gets one there, and he also gets one in

1097
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 6: Golden State his two years there finals MVP.

1098
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:16,359
Speaker 3: He got to get another one there.

1099
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:16,799
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1100
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 2: I guess if you get two finals MVPs with a team,

1101
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:21,719
Speaker 2: if you were only there for three years, Danny like

1102
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:22,840
Speaker 2: what what?

1103
00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:26,840
Speaker 1: Because Danny's making that face. He's not seeing a statue anywhere.

1104
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 4: I'm seeing a statue. Okay, see, I'm saying Golden State

1105
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:37,799
Speaker 4: two years, three years, three Yeah, it's a jersey. I'll

1106
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:39,400
Speaker 4: give him jersey, Raptor. I don't know about statue.

1107
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:44,800
Speaker 1: He can get one statue. Why Golden State?

1108
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 2: When you consider that he was such like the error

1109
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 2: that he was a part of the guys Steph Clay,

1110
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 2: Iggy Draymond Kerr. They played there way more than three

1111
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 2: years though, and they all getting part of multiple championship

1112
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:05,359
Speaker 2: kind of runs.

1113
00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:06,239
Speaker 1: Was kind of.

1114
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 4: Definitely should get that.

1115
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 3: He was a part of it. He was the finals.

1116
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 4: It sounds crazy, but he kind of he kind of was.

1117
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,759
Speaker 3: He was all right, but he was. He was He

1118
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,319
Speaker 3: was the guy. He was the guy.

1119
00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:23,919
Speaker 1: I think he was the guy on that team.

1120
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,480
Speaker 3: He got finals twice. He was better than Steph.

1121
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 1: He was listening.

1122
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:30,480
Speaker 4: He was the guy. He was the guy. But they

1123
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 4: were the team. They were a team before him.

1124
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:33,000
Speaker 1: I wouldn't agree.

1125
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:35,720
Speaker 4: It wasn't like they were still the team.

1126
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:38,440
Speaker 3: Lost the year before, Golden State lost.

1127
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,600
Speaker 4: The seventh year, but they won, so they were still

1128
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:40,959
Speaker 4: the team.

1129
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:42,240
Speaker 1: He was by two and seven.

1130
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:44,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, but like Lebron, that.

1131
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,560
Speaker 4: That I Draymond a lot if a lot of if

1132
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:52,440
Speaker 4: it it was the fifth right, but they were they were.

1133
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 4: He was the guy, but they were the team before

1134
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 4: he got there. They were a movement, so they were

1135
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,439
Speaker 4: in their way to win. Even if they don't trade

1136
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:00,560
Speaker 4: for k D, I still think they in the like, yeah,

1137
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 4: I think they should win one or two.

1138
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 1: Put it this way, Kat made them way better. Obviously.

1139
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 1: I think that's the best team I've ever seen in

1140
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:09,279
Speaker 1: my life. I don't even think it's I know a

1141
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:10,720
Speaker 1: lot of people like what about the nineties.

1142
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:15,400
Speaker 2: I'm like, bro, that was the most unstoppable unction of statue.

1143
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 3: We're getting all of them statues. We're gonna order it

1144
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:18,120
Speaker 3: from the same guy.

1145
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 1: We're giving Clay Yes and KD.

1146
00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,080
Speaker 4: I'm cool with Katie getting jersey in the Raptors.

1147
00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:27,840
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1148
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:29,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if a statue.

1149
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:31,800
Speaker 6: Those shots I saw firsthand. I was there at the

1150
00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,719
Speaker 6: games in Cleveland. They swept them. They was, yeah, they

1151
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:39,399
Speaker 6: beat they dominating Lebron. This is Lebron was talking about

1152
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:42,920
Speaker 6: the dominating with him. They don't dominate Lebron. If Kat's

1153
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:44,640
Speaker 6: not there, they might not even win.

1154
00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm actually on the record, I think in twenty seventeen.

1155
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,799
Speaker 2: They lose to Cleveland. Honestly, Yeah, that's my opinion. Might

1156
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:54,480
Speaker 2: be a little controversial, but I really do think Cleveland

1157
00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:57,759
Speaker 2: wins that championship if yeah, KD doesn't go over there.

1158
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:05,040
Speaker 2: In terms of okay, s, I can see both. I

1159
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:09,000
Speaker 2: can see both sides of that because it was so.

1160
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:12,760
Speaker 1: Like bitter when he left.

1161
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:17,120
Speaker 4: He did ten years though, right, yeah, at least ten years.

1162
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:21,479
Speaker 1: They were so pissed and butt hurt I could see

1163
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 1: them not wanting to reward that.

1164
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:26,960
Speaker 2: But at the same time, if Russell Westbrook gets a statue,

1165
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:28,960
Speaker 2: Kate gets a freaking.

1166
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 3: Statue, and Russe is getting a statue years yeah, Russe.

1167
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,799
Speaker 1: Is getting statue and you were nowhere near as good

1168
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 1: as Katy.

1169
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:46,879
Speaker 3: Two statues high five in each other question what one one?

1170
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:52,000
Speaker 2: One thing though before we go, is there is there

1171
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:55,280
Speaker 2: anywhere that Danny Green deserves the statue to state Mary's

1172
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 2: Should they be erecting.

1173
00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:57,239

1217
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 4: year with Dough, but he probably got more years. It

1218
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,120
Speaker 4: was just always a slippery slick even when we played

1219
00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:25,040
Speaker 4: cards and he always gonna find an angle I'm gonna

1220
00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 4: cheat or something, shooting game, any type of game we

1221
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 4: played the way.

1222
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:42,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, probably when he squared up with Doc, they were

1223
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 6: squared up. We had a fiery everybody was squared up.

1224
00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:47,080
Speaker 6: But he squared up with Doc.

1225
00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 1: What they did? You intervene? Or how does that go? Man?

1229

Speaker 6: hold on this about the squaws. I'll never forget it though.

1230
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 6: But it didn't go down.

1231
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:11,439
Speaker 4: So that's he was the one that quick to cuts

1232
00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 4: out the referees that you know, quck sucking you know

1233
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,520

1234
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:19,680
Speaker 4: y'all over here, some people out. It was real quick,

1235
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 4: but they definitely that was the time. They definitely had

1236
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:24,680
Speaker 4: a group that squared off because we had Delante. After

1237
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,040
Speaker 4: Dalante left, so I already knew how Delante was. He

1238
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:28,640

1247
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:04,439
Speaker 4: I try to give people analogy, like, you have multiple kids,

1248
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 4: can you say you love one more than the other?

1249
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:09,120
Speaker 1: Well, I've always heard that parents actually do have some Dude.

1250
00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:14,680
Speaker 4: Ranks his kids, but like experience, each kid is different,

1251
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:17,160
Speaker 4: but he's experience is different his birth. You can't say

1252
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,120
Speaker 4: I love the birth of this child more than now.

1253
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,160
Speaker 4: They grow up to be different. But I think the

1254
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,760
Speaker 4: bubble ring was harder because, like, no matter how nice

1255
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:26,640
Speaker 4: you make a space, if you're there in that space

1256
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,800
Speaker 4: for one hundred days, it's tough.

1257
00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:30,680
Speaker 1: What do you say to people that try to denigrate

1258
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 1: are you.

1259
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:34,080
Speaker 3: No, I'm not saying what you're talking about.

1260
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:41,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it's not the one talking about. Yeah, they

1261
00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:42,680
Speaker 4: be shipping on it, bro, But again.

1262
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:46,120
Speaker 1: To me, body went through the same experience. If you

1263
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:47,720
Speaker 1: didn't win, then you weren't good enough.

1264
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:50,600
Speaker 6: I don't see I will say this. I mean, I

1265
00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:57,360
Speaker 6: guess all championships are are different. You experienced I didn't experience,

1266
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 6: you know. But this is the thing I say about

1267
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:04,960
Speaker 6: the bubble like that, I feel like y'all was there,

1268
01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 6: so like I'm on the outside looking in. But like

1269
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 6: I truly believe, when you don't have to experience the flying,

1270
01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:16,080
Speaker 6: the la to being on the road in that environment

1271
01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:18,600
Speaker 6: like that, I think that makes it tough.

1272
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 3: I agree, Like you know what I'm saying.

1273
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,040
Speaker 6: If I gotta go to Denver, or I gotta go

1274
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 6: to Indiana, or I gotta go to AKC, But now

1275
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:26,920
Speaker 6: I can wake up at one o'clock and go to

1276
01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 6: the gym and get used to these rims. Over one

1277
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:32,200
Speaker 6: hundred days, I'm used to being in this gym, you know,

1278
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:34,480
Speaker 6: so that I could get comfortable. But like I said,

1279
01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:37,120
Speaker 6: I wasn't there. But I also believe that like damn,

1280
01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:39,680
Speaker 6: they just put the fire extinguisher. Now we're out on

1281
01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:41,760
Speaker 6: the street in the playoffs where I didn't get my

1282
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 6: rest today. You know, you know, it's like it's certain

1283
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,400
Speaker 6: elements of like being on the road and doing things

1284
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 6: and not having your meal that you usually are getting

1285
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,960
Speaker 6: your proper sleep. That makes that element a little difficult,

1286
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:55,520
Speaker 6: but you know he was there, so I can't.

1287
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:58,080
Speaker 4: I think some guys thrived in that, and some guys,

1288
01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:00,360
Speaker 4: like I'm used to playing in front of crowds, weird

1289
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 4: to not play in front of the crowd. And I

1290
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:05,760
Speaker 4: also give like the guys that are not saying the

1291
01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:07,840
Speaker 4: guys that play well were like because of the bubble,

1292
01:01:07,880 --> 01:01:09,600
Speaker 4: But the teams that came back three to one, I

1293
01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 4: think it was because they didn't have that atmosphere got Yeah,

1294
01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:14,880
Speaker 4: there was no road. But my rebuttal to that is

1295
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:18,720
Speaker 4: we were the best team in the league regards like

1296
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 4: that year. We were the best defensive team, the best team.

1297
01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:22,600
Speaker 1: You have the best record.

1298
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:25,560
Speaker 4: Now, like a team like Miami, like we were supposed

1299
01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:27,560
Speaker 4: to win it. Yeah, but Miami getting to the finals,

1300
01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 4: they weren't supposed to, Like they've been out of dog.

1301
01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 4: Now you can say Miami went and one because of

1302
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:32,840
Speaker 4: the bubb like, but we were supposed to, like the one.

1303
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:34,880
Speaker 4: The team that would have that gave us trouble was

1304
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:35,640
Speaker 4: the Clippers that year.

1305
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:40,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Clippers were every last in the regular regular season.

1306
01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:41,600
Speaker 1: You guys actually beat the Clippers.

1307
01:01:41,960 --> 01:01:43,840
Speaker 4: I think so they gave us trouble throughout the year.

1308
01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:46,280
Speaker 4: I think the playoff series have been different for us.

1309
01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 4: They matched up well with us, but again, they were

1310
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:50,600
Speaker 4: up three to one. Now, if it was regular season,

1311
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:52,439
Speaker 4: they might not have lost the three to one lead

1312
01:01:52,560 --> 01:01:54,680
Speaker 4: because they would have had the crowds and been had

1313
01:01:54,720 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 4: home court advantage. There was no home court in the Bubble.

1314
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,640
Speaker 4: But to me and said again, I think regardless of

1315
01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:02,120
Speaker 4: the scenario, we would because we were the best team

1316
01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:03,880
Speaker 4: that year. Like I didn't see anybody being like we

1317
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:05,880
Speaker 4: didn't have a great offense. We had a really good defense.

1318
01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:06,760
Speaker 1: Defense was great.

1319
01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:13,920
Speaker 2: Another Danny question from Denton Frea, Danny, what was the

1320
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 2: lesson you learned while playing at the Pop?

1321
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:19,960
Speaker 4: I mean, just was he really yelling at y'all like that?

1322
01:02:20,560 --> 01:02:22,800
Speaker 4: This highlights of him cussing me out? Oh okay, I

1323
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:24,560
Speaker 4: think he has a highlight film. We need to get

1324
01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:26,920
Speaker 4: a too minute highlight clip of Pop cussing just me out,

1325
01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:29,760
Speaker 4: Let alone, Tony. But he lets he lets everybody know

1326
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:31,360
Speaker 4: you're not safe, because as soon as you get there,

1327
01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:33,240
Speaker 4: he calls time out right away and cusses out the

1328
01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:36,600
Speaker 4: Big three to let you know you not safe. But

1329
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:39,480
Speaker 4: I think the biggest lesson that I learned, and it

1330
01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:45,280
Speaker 4: wasn't just like a direct verbal like conversation. It was

1331
01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:47,440
Speaker 4: more of just how to like have that sense of urgency.

1332
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:51,760
Speaker 4: He always played chess, and he always would cuss you

1333
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 4: out playing the Kings, knowing that you had to play

1334
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:58,439
Speaker 4: the Celtics in two games, like I'm gonna make sure

1335
01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:00,240
Speaker 4: I know how to press certain buttons to get this

1336
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:03,440
Speaker 4: guy ready for this game. But he also lets you

1337
01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:05,160
Speaker 4: know your spot is never safe, you know what I'm saying,

1338
01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,160
Speaker 4: So you gotta fight for your spot every day. He

1339
01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:10,560
Speaker 4: never let me feel or think have a mindset to

1340
01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:13,360
Speaker 4: get comfortable like you've made it, And I think that's

1341
01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:14,600
Speaker 4: what made me last longer.

1342
01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:14,840
Speaker 3: In the league.

1343
01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:21,880
Speaker 1: Okay, Greg Delion zero three is getting messy already. Who's winning?

1344
01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:23,320
Speaker 1: He won? Right now?

1345
01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:24,920
Speaker 4: Nobody playing basketball?

1346
01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:26,720
Speaker 1: You and Danny Green one.

1347
01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:31,520
Speaker 3: I'll play today, Yeah, yeah, I'll play three times a week.

1348
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:34,000
Speaker 4: Three times. I'm playing once a week, so now I'm yeah,

1349
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:35,840
Speaker 4: I'm not. I played on the stands.

1350
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, you had a jumper still there.

1351
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:40,240
Speaker 4: You're gonna do big three?

1352
01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:45,760
Speaker 1: Nah? Nah?

1353
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:48,480
Speaker 3: I mean a lot younger than me.

1354
01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:51,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, I got a couple of I got a couple

1355
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:51,920
Speaker 4: of couple.

1356
01:03:55,440 --> 01:03:55,920
Speaker 1: Just keep it.

1357
01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:02,040
Speaker 2: And our last question is magic related from air Bender

1358
01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,600
Speaker 2: one oh six. What do you think of Orlando's early

1359
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:07,160
Speaker 2: struggles this season. They've been trying to play at a

1360
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:10,240
Speaker 2: higher pace offensively, but it's hurt their defense in the process.

1361
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:13,240
Speaker 2: They think they just need more games under their belt

1362
01:04:13,320 --> 01:04:15,080
Speaker 2: to get accustomed to the new game play.

1363
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:17,360
Speaker 4: Everybody needs more games under their belt. Man, it's not

1364
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:21,080
Speaker 4: just Orlando, but yes, it's early. We expected more from them,

1365
01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:24,280
Speaker 4: but they get Desmond Bain's first year with them, like

1366
01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:27,480
Speaker 4: des Is their ties Jones back up, but Jalen Suggs

1367
01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:30,400
Speaker 4: was out a lot. They had injuries last year, so

1368
01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:34,320
Speaker 4: they're just getting acclimated. Without a doubt. I think they'll

1369
01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:35,880
Speaker 4: be one of the better team. They'll be top five

1370
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:36,720
Speaker 4: teams in the East.

1371
01:04:37,480 --> 01:04:42,960
Speaker 2: In my perspective, I'm a little scared for them because.

1372
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:47,200
Speaker 1: They look exactly the same that they did last.

1373
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,360
Speaker 2: Year in terms of the stuff that they're running or

1374
01:04:49,760 --> 01:04:52,520
Speaker 2: like how they're trying to play. And it's just like

1375
01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:55,920
Speaker 2: no acknowledgment that they got Desmond Bane now right in

1376
01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 2: terms of like think about the teams that you played.

1377
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,760
Speaker 4: On that for that person.

1378
01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:06,120
Speaker 1: No, so that you can get shots, you know what

1379
01:05:06,160 --> 01:05:06,480
Speaker 1: I mean.

1380
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:08,720
Speaker 2: Like not that they're calling stuff for you to isle,

1381
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:10,000
Speaker 2: but it's like, no, we have one of the best

1382
01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:10,920
Speaker 2: shooters in the NBA.

1383
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,520
Speaker 1: Now let's do stuff to acknowledge.

1384
01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:15,680
Speaker 4: So you don't think they're running enough stuff for Deaz. No,

1385
01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:17,680
Speaker 4: he's still put up some good numbers.

1386
01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:22,240
Speaker 1: Not like but he's making It's not he's doing it

1387
01:05:22,360 --> 01:05:24,640
Speaker 1: on his own. And the only reason I'm paying attention

1388
01:05:24,840 --> 01:05:28,520
Speaker 1: like this is yes, I really thought these kids could

1389
01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:31,240
Speaker 1: go to the final year. So I'm just watching. I'm like,

1390
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:33,160
Speaker 1: this don't look like a finals team to me.

1391
01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:36,480
Speaker 6: What do you think, Paul? I think they just need time.

1392
01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:39,200
Speaker 6: Think there's an adjustment U hereod there a young team.

1393
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:41,880
Speaker 6: They're trying to, like you said that, to get acclimated,

1394
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:43,800
Speaker 6: and I think they're when you know, of course, of

1395
01:05:43,880 --> 01:05:45,880
Speaker 6: eighty two games, I think there'll be a top four seed.

1396
01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:48,600
Speaker 4: There you go. Yeah, time will tell.

1397
01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:51,880
Speaker 2: And now it's time for our Picks of the Night

1398
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:55,120
Speaker 2: segment presented by Prize Picks. We got a good lineup

1399
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 2: tomorrow night, so let's get right into it.

1400
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:01,680
Speaker 1: I think you liked the Spider Mitchell.

1401
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:04,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like don he's doing a three point celebration

1402
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:07,680
Speaker 4: with us, but they're playing Boston. I think it's gonna

1403
01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:09,160
Speaker 4: be I don't think it's gonna be a blowout. I

1404
01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:11,919
Speaker 4: think it's gonna because they're missing pieces to Cleveland's down

1405
01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:15,080
Speaker 4: some bodies. Boston's not Boston, So I think he'll have

1406
01:06:15,160 --> 01:06:17,480
Speaker 4: to play both of the minutes. And the other night

1407
01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:19,280
Speaker 4: he put up thirty five, I think he'll have to

1408
01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:22,200
Speaker 4: and every time he plays against him, I feel like

1409
01:06:22,240 --> 01:06:24,360
Speaker 4: he has a little chip on his shoulder. So yeah,

1410
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:26,800
Speaker 4: I can see I'm going more. I'm going twenty eight

1411
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:28,840
Speaker 4: and a half. I'm going more for don On that

1412
01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:31,920
Speaker 4: he's aftering thirty one right now. I think he gets

1413
01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:33,440
Speaker 4: his average, And to me, you.

1414
01:06:33,520 --> 01:06:36,040
Speaker 2: Gotta kick him while they're down because Boston they don't

1415
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:38,160
Speaker 2: have a long season.

1416
01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:39,800
Speaker 4: But if they get you can't let him get.

1417
01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:43,400
Speaker 1: No light have a long season. So I love that pick.

1418
01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:49,120
Speaker 2: I'm also really into the Evan Mobley more than and

1419
01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:52,320
Speaker 2: a half points because I think Boston has one of

1420
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:55,080
Speaker 2: the worst front lines in this year.

1421
01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:58,120
Speaker 4: Stop disrespecting my dude, Man, tell.

1422
01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:02,640
Speaker 6: Me kicks versus Boston right now to get the game. Yeah,

1423
01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:08,200
Speaker 6: I'm going less than eighteen point five.

1424
01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:10,240
Speaker 4: Are you actually like less from Evan Mobley.

1425
01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:13,120
Speaker 6: I'm going less from Avin Moley. On the eighteen point

1426
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:17,040
Speaker 6: five versus Boston, you lose Katie averaging eighteen point three,

1427
01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:18,680
Speaker 6: He's not gonna get more than two point.

1428
01:07:18,560 --> 01:07:20,960
Speaker 1: You lose kp Al, Horford and Cornett.

1429
01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:23,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I mean telling me I like him as

1430
01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 4: a utility guy. Luca Garza, like, those guys are solid,

1431
01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:30,080
Speaker 4: But I don't I don't know. Damn Keta is his

1432
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:34,320
Speaker 4: name is? Who Keta is his name? Keda Queta? Yeah, yeah,

1433
01:07:34,400 --> 01:07:38,080
Speaker 4: that's what I'm saying. His defensive presence, he's solid. Solid

1434
01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 4: for Boston, he's solid. But yeah if he stays on

1435
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:43,560
Speaker 4: the floor. But if he's off the floor, and you

1436
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 4: got like I like.

1437
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:53,760
Speaker 2: Paul Austin Reeves more or less than twenty nine points

1438
01:07:54,280 --> 01:07:55,280
Speaker 2: versus Minnesota.

1439
01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:59,760
Speaker 1: He's averaging thirty five. Luca and Lebron I are playing tonight.

1440
01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:05,360
Speaker 6: I mean yes that I like Minnesota defensively with the

1441
01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:08,840
Speaker 6: big fella inside Gobert defensive player of the Year multiples.

1442
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:13,080
Speaker 6: I'm going less than twenty nine point four, twenty nine

1443
01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:16,439
Speaker 6: point five points versus Minnesota. I know he's averaging thirty five.

1444
01:08:17,160 --> 01:08:20,120
Speaker 6: I'm going less. Minnesota's got some pride. They own the

1445
01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:21,519
Speaker 6: Lakers going.

1446
01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:27,280
Speaker 4: They own the Lakers. That's crazy and no and Man

1447
01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:28,320
Speaker 4: and Man ain't playing it.

1448
01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:29,799
Speaker 3: They're still a defensive pressent.

1449
01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:32,000
Speaker 4: All right, I'm going more man. It's it's a gift,

1450
01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 4: I said. Without one of the better defensive Nikaile Alexander

1451
01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:37,920
Speaker 4: Walker out and Austin's been putting up every time, both

1452
01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:39,519
Speaker 4: those guys at the floor. I think he's averaging forty

1453
01:08:39,560 --> 01:08:42,479
Speaker 4: with both them on the floor and more than twenty

1454
01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:42,920
Speaker 4: and a half.

1455
01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:45,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he gets that where to attack like

1456
01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:47,120
Speaker 1: Mike Conley and stuff like that.

1457
01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:51,120
Speaker 4: Ain't no, Slock's just so good at the foul. He's

1458
01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:54,160
Speaker 4: been getting to the free line. He's second behind Shaye

1459
01:08:54,320 --> 01:08:56,280
Speaker 4: and right now. Not crazy that us.

1460
01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:59,080
Speaker 2: I just see that continuing to be a twenty two

1461
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:03,599
Speaker 2: free throws against second and yeah, Kad Cunningham more.

1462
01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:06,880
Speaker 4: Who are they playing tomorrow Detroit? They've been I thought

1463
01:09:06,880 --> 01:09:09,559
Speaker 4: they would be better. They start to scroll, but yeah,

1464
01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:11,559
Speaker 4: I got I don't know who it is. It don't matter.

1465
01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:14,439
Speaker 4: He I think is gonna get more than twenty five

1466
01:09:14,479 --> 01:09:18,080
Speaker 4: and a half points because he's been coming out facilitating

1467
01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:21,200
Speaker 4: first and trying to get his guys going. He don't

1468
01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:24,280
Speaker 4: have the same personnel he had last year, and him

1469
01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:26,120
Speaker 4: and Jalen Durant is a great one two punch, but

1470
01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:28,080
Speaker 4: they're gonna need him to be aggressive score. He has

1471
01:09:28,120 --> 01:09:29,680
Speaker 4: to for them to be good this year. He has

1472
01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:33,120
Speaker 4: to score more, and I think that's the coaching staff.

1473
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:34,920
Speaker 4: Tobias's gonna tell me, we need you to score. So

1474
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:36,600
Speaker 4: he has to get thirty a night for them to

1475
01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:39,160
Speaker 4: be in the conversation of where they were last year.

1476
01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:41,360
Speaker 2: I think he took his game to the next level

1477
01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:43,680
Speaker 2: last year when he became just a better one on

1478
01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,400
Speaker 2: one player. He was always like pretty good in the

1479
01:09:46,479 --> 01:09:49,240
Speaker 2: pick and roll, turn it over too much, but he

1480
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:51,600
Speaker 2: became a guy that could score against people in the

1481
01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:54,200
Speaker 2: one on one and the next series. Last year he

1482
01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:57,080
Speaker 2: just showed that he could consistently get to the who

1483
01:09:57,479 --> 01:09:58,679
Speaker 2: you know, make a big shot.

1484
01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:01,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think he's gonna have a big scoring year.

1485
01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:03,040
Speaker 4: There was a point where he was in the MVP conversation,

1486
01:10:03,680 --> 01:10:09,160
Speaker 4: like voting last year. He was like one of those

1487
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:10,240
Speaker 4: guys that could have been I think.

1488
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:13,160
Speaker 2: Detroit was such a surprise team and he was having

1489
01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:14,280
Speaker 2: such a breakout year.

1490
01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:18,000
Speaker 1: I'm I'm a CAD fan, so yeah, I believe in

1491
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:21,360
Speaker 1: what he's doing this year. All right, y'all. I said

1492
01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:22,960
Speaker 1: early it's been a hot start to.

1493
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:25,720
Speaker 2: The NBA season. As we wind down episode one, is

1494
01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,599
Speaker 2: kind of crazy to even say that. I would love

1495
01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:32,280
Speaker 2: to get you guys's hottest takes right now.

1496
01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:35,519
Speaker 6: Yeah, I had one earlier that I told you, but

1497
01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:41,480
Speaker 6: I'm changing it. My hottest take is I got Philadelphia

1498
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:42,880
Speaker 6: Sixers coming out of the East.

1499
01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:53,400
Speaker 2: The Sixers the Eastern Conference champions this year. That's that's

1500
01:10:54,120 --> 01:10:59,400
Speaker 2: that's a scorcher. Yeah, I'm not I'm not there with you.

1501
01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:01,599
Speaker 2: I'm happy for him in there dope start to the season.

1502
01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:05,600
Speaker 2: I think it's super encouraging to see Maxi doing what

1503
01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:08,920
Speaker 2: he's doing. Specifically obviously the rookies, the rookie but like

1504
01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:11,720
Speaker 2: Maxie showing that like no, I'm a bona fide All

1505
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:13,880
Speaker 2: star I'm gonna be an All NBA type of player

1506
01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:14,280
Speaker 2: this year.

1507
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:18,200
Speaker 1: That's super encouraging. Danny, you got any hot takes?

1508
01:11:19,040 --> 01:11:21,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was one we discussed earlier as my sleeper.

1509
01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:23,599
Speaker 4: I don't think they're gonna make it out of the West,

1510
01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:26,200
Speaker 4: but I think they're gonna get to the Western Conference finals.

1511
01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:29,559
Speaker 4: I'm a book at San Antonio Spurs Western.

1512
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:35,280
Speaker 1: Oh wow, coming out the gate man.

1513
01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:37,639
Speaker 3: Check from.

1514
01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:49,720
Speaker 1: B to the playoffs and actually like do something for sure.

1515
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:53,000
Speaker 4: But I also was big on Dallas before the season started.

1516
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:54,000
Speaker 4: Now look at Dallas and I'm like.

1517
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:55,360
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.

1518
01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:58,680
Speaker 4: And what san Antono did the Dallas Yeah, I got you.

1519
01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:01,880
Speaker 4: I'm like, you know this early, it is very early.

1520
01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:06,880
Speaker 2: So for me, my hottest take, man, is that last

1521
01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:10,439
Speaker 2: year we saw some crazy coach firings like what Denver

1522
01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:17,440
Speaker 2: did to Mike Malone to happen in Memphis Jenkins, Taylor Jenkins.

1523
01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:20,360
Speaker 2: Not only do I think it's gonna continue, I think

1524
01:12:20,400 --> 01:12:21,200
Speaker 2: it should continue.

1525
01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:22,200
Speaker 3: The firings.

1526
01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:26,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, like Orlando, they be looking at mostly like, bro

1527
01:12:27,360 --> 01:12:35,040
Speaker 1: get it. Coaches in the hot hot seat. Your contracts

1528
01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:35,760
Speaker 1: are guaranteed.

01:12:35,760 --> 01:12:38,320
Speaker 4: It is okay if you get never okay.
