1
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:08,680
Speaker 1: Flashbacks of the Clippers collapsing in the bubble. Victor Oladipo

2
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,559
Speaker 1: turns down an extension. According to reports, what do the

3
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:16,440
Speaker 1: Rockets do now? A monumental Sacramento King's loss so monumental

4
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: it's almost impressive, And two more dunkers are named for

5
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,240
Speaker 1: All Star Weekend. Hey, I'm Tasmelis and this is what

6
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: you need to know. In the NBA Clippers Bucks in

7
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 1: the national TV slot on Sunday afternoon, the Primo slot

8
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 1: on ABC. They were up five with four minutes left,

9
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: and then they didn't score the rest of the way,

10
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 1: reminiscent of their offense stagnating against the Nuggets when they're

11
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,520
Speaker 1: up three to one in the Bubble last year, they

12
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 1: just didn't move that thing. It was just ioball after

13
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 1: ioball after iceleball, And that's exactly what happened the last

14
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: few minutes of this game. Paul George and Kawhi Leonard

15
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: took every shot. There wasn't a ball mover to be seen.

16
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: And that's why the excuses after the game sounded similar

17
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: to what happened last year in the Bubble and also

18
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: sounded similar to the guys making excuses Paul George and

19
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: Kawhi Leonard both said we needed to pick up the

20
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: pace late. We slowed down coming into this year. There's

21
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: a lot of talk about them needing a point guard.

22
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: They needed somebody to be able to be a defense

23
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: buster when things got stagnant. They actually haven't needed anybody

24
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: new with the way they've been playing. They've just been

25
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 1: moving the ball so well. Three point shots are raining

26
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: down on opponents this year, But this looked like last year.

27
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: Patrick Beverley couldn't get the job done. Luke Kennard is

28
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 1: a dnp CD right now, which is shocking to me,

29
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: but he hasn't been able to impose himself on the game.

30
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: Couldn't help but think that Kyle Lowry, Kawhi Leonard's old

31
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: partner in crime, would be the absolute perfect fit on

32
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: this Clippers team, although who knows if he wants to

33
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: be traded. Kyle Lowry, he rules Toronto. If he wants

34
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: to be dealt, he'll be dealt. Speaking of point guards,

35
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: the Bucks got theirs back and that made a difference.

36
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: Even though Drew Holiday was coming off the bench. He

37
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,399
Speaker 1: had missed ten games after contracting COVID nineteen. He made

38
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: the key play on Jannis's dunk late to seal it.

39
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: And it definitely was not a travel although I had

40
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: to watch it millions of times because a man shouldn't

41
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: be able to dunk it from the three point line

42
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: without putting it on the floor. But it's a gather

43
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: in two steps and that's legal in all fifty states.

44
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: Watch it, watch it in slow mo. I've got it

45
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: here for you. I I'm baffled by it too. The

46
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: Bucks baffled the Clippers with Yannis's play late. Seventeen of

47
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: the bucks final twenty two points in the fourth were

48
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: from Jiannis. He had thirty six overall. Why wasn't Sergia

49
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: Baka playing late? Speaking of raptors stopping Jannistadakupo, that man

50
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: needed to be on the floor. Their acquisition in the offseason.

51
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: But why do I know? Speaking of Sergia Blaca and blocks,

52
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: Yannistadakupo the block of the year here, What an incredible

53
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: stop on Aviza Zubats late in this game. The guts

54
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: to go for that one. That was incredible. The Bucks

55
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: have followed up a five game losing streak with a

56
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: five game winning streak over that stretch. Again. It's thirty

57
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 1: three and a half points, thirteen and a half rebounds,

58
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: six and a half assist, and seventy five percent from

59
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: the line. The Bucks are only one game out of

60
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 1: first in the East. Another team that had a losing

61
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: streak that's turned it around. No surprise, the Champs had

62
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: lost four in a row but have now won two straight.

63
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: After demolishing the Golden State Warriors, the Kings had a

64
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: monumental loss in Charlotte. The King stayed the Kanks up

65
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: eight with sixty nine seconds to go and going to

66
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: the free throw line ball in hand, but they missed

67
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: five straight free throws over the next minute, and they

68
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: also fell out a three point shooter, and then they

69
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: gave up an and one to Malik Monk with one

70
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 1: second left to lose the game. Come on, I have

71
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: to admire that it's not easy to do. It. Seemed

72
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: like the Kings had saved head coach Luke Walton's job,

73
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: at least for a bit after they snapped their nine

74
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: game losing streak the game before. Look like they're on

75
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: their way to winning two straight. But who knows what

76
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: this team. Luke needs all the help he can get.

77
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: Maybe he gets a call from dad from Bill Luke,

78
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: I am your father. Don't worry about it. Your team

79
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: just can't win games. Couple notes m King's side, Buddy

80
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: Heal made his thousand three point shot in just his

81
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: three hundred and fiftieth game. He is now the fastest

82
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: to one thousand threes in NBA history, eclipsing Steph Curry's

83
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: mark of three hundred and sixty nine games. The game

84
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 1: be changing and on Charlotte's side, PJ. Washington had a

85
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: career high of forty two points in the win. Similarly,

86
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: the Boston Celtics escaped with a win versus the Washington Wizards.

87
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: The Whiz were up five with forty five seconds left,

88
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: but just let Jason Tatum go to the whole play

89
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: after play, and the Washington Wizards have now lost eleven

90
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 1: straight games when Bradley Beal has scored forty plus points.

91
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: That according to the Athletics Fred Katz. Some off the

92
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 1: court news here, Victor Oladipo has turned down a two year,

93
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: forty five million dollar extension from the Houston Rockets. According

94
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, you can understand from the Rockets

95
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 1: perspective why they would give him that contract extension line

96
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: him up with John Walls two years remaining. They just

97
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: acquired him in the James Harden trade. That was the

98
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: main player that they got in this deal. And Ola

99
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: Depot can become a free agent this offseason. But now

100
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: they have to move him before the trade deadline. In

101
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 1: my opinion, they can't sign him to a longer term

102
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: deal than that two year extension. It seems like he

103
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: wants a huge deal that's been rumored for a long time,

104
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,799
Speaker 1: but he hasn't played up to that level of play.

105
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: He just hasn't been a Maxi money guy. I can

106
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: see them moving him. According to rumors, Miami would still

107
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: want him, and if they could try, whether it's precious

108
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 1: that you are even Kendrick none from them for Victor Oladibo.

109
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: I think you gotta do it on the floor. The

110
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: Rockets lost their tenth in a row. Justice Winslow had

111
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 1: his best game since returning from injury for the Memphis Grizzlies.

112
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 1: He had twenty points. The grizz are at five hundred,

113
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: several promising young players on their squad and John Morant, Winslow,

114
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: Jared Jackson Junior's got to get healthy, Xavier Tillman, Desmond Baine,

115
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: Brandon Clark, Dylan Brooks, Tyas Jones, d' anthony Melton. Yes,

116
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: I've named the whole roster. You gotta be patient, just

117
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: like the Grizzlies have been patient with Justice Winslow. This

118
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 1: is why he was so appreciative. Listen to him after

119
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: the game.

120
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 2: This trade was one of the best things to happen

121
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 2: in my life, you know, on and off the court

122
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 2: for me in this organization, just being so patient with me.

123
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 2: I'm just so thankful, a lot of gratitude, a lot

124
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 2: of joy in my heart right now.

125
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: Remember last year when the Grizzlies dealt Andre Igodala to

126
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: the Miami Heat for Justice Winslow, and Igodala basically said

127
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: I didn't want to be on an up and coming team,

128
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: and the Grizzlies young players said, yeah, we don't want

129
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: you either. Well, it's working well for both teams. Actually.

130
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,559
Speaker 1: A couple more Slam Dunk Contest participants have been named

131
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: for this weekend's festivities, joining high fly In Nick's rookie

132
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: Obi Toppin Are Portland's and Forny Simons, and Pacers rookie

133
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: Cassius Stanley who broke Zion Williamson's vertical record at Duke.

134
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: Speaking of Zion Williamson, there is one spot remaining in

135
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: the Slam Dunk Contest for either Zion or Zach Lavine

136
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: or if both want to go in. I'm sure they

137
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: had expand the participants list to at least five. A

138
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: guy who will be at All Star Weekend. Devin Booker

139
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: had forty three points, five rebounds, and five assists in

140
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: a win against the Timberwolves. The Wolves have lost eight straight.

141
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: The Heat shut down Atlantis Trey Young he won't be

142
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: at All Star Weekend? What's up with that? And even

143
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: though John Collins had thirty four points for Atlanta, Miami

144
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: moved to five hundred and now sit fifth in the

145
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: East after a slow start. This year is strange. The

146
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: Heat are tied with Toronto and Boston in the standings

147
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: and the team that's above them is the New York Knicks.

148
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: What they beat the Pistons. The Knicks are in fourth,

149
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: but things are so tight in the Eastern Conference. They

150
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: are two games up from dropping to the eleventh seed.

151
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: It's a wild one in the Eastern Conference this season.

152
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: That's it for me. Make sure you check out the
